  Speaker 3: I hear people talking bad about the way we have
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: to live here in this country. Harping on a war
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: as we fight and griping about the way things ought
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: to be.
• 0:54
  Speaker 4: And I don't mind them switching sides and standing up
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: for things they believe in. When it's running down my country, man,
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: they're walking on the fighting side of me.
• 1:09
  Speaker 5: They're walking on the fighting side of me. Welcome in.
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: Glad to have you with us. And this just in.
• 1:17

• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Alamo Dome as we speak. Getting ready for that big
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: South Florida matchup on ESPN tonight. Sam Houston and Liberty

  Speaker 1: are playing tonight as well. And don't forget that ESPN
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: 2 biggie with South Alabama and Arkansas State. This is
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: part of the two months of football every single night.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: More tomorrow, of course. Iowa and Washington. Big Ten has
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: had no discussions tonight. about pursuing expansion, according to reports
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: out of their meeting. Commissioner Tony Petitti said today at
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Big Ten Basketball Media Days that the conference, while aggressively
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: supporting the Protect College Sports Act, has had absolutely no
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: discussions taking place around expansion. This conference has 18 strong members.
• 2:29
  Speaker 5: Says Petitti. We're focused on that.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: There's lots of things we can do inside the conference
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: to continue to grow the position that we have with
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: the 18 members.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: Hunter Urasich is in trouble.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: The athletic director at Arkansas, the best of Arkansas sports website,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: saying today after polling the 10-member board of trustees, his
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: support is dwindling. The Razorbacks' football fortunes have not been
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: good for a while. They are 2-3 with a new coach,
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Ryan Silverfield, who hasn't really received any honeymoon period for
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: the fans. But according to the best of Arkansas sports,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: most of that ire has been directed as Juricic, who
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: is the chairman of the CFP committee. So we'll see
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: what happens there. The BYU offense has a big blow.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Star running back and last year's player of the year, L.J. Martin,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: will be out for at least a month, according to ESPN.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Martin carried the ball just twice for 16 yards in
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: the win over TCU this last week. With 440 left
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: in the first quarter, he was pulled down awkwardly. jogged
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: off the field with a slight limp and did not return.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: The Cougars without two of their top running backs since
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: Sione Moya has been sidelined with an injury he suffered
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: in week one. Martin was a big cog in the
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: BYU offense through the first three games. rushing 42 times
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: for 328 yards and three touchdowns.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: Sam Adams is one of the players who will be named.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: To the 2026 SEC Football Legends class. That generally happens
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: the weekend of the SEC Championship. Among others in the class,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Adams will enter with Former Heisman winners Billy Sims from
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma and Ricky Williams from Texas. The Cotton Bowl Hall
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: of Fame class has been announced. Rick Baker, the longtime CEO,
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: and Bruce Gadd, longtime president and former quarterback at Richardson
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: High School, is part of that group.
• 5:09
  Speaker 5: Along with Mack Brown.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: The former Texas coach, Lance McElhaney, SMU quarterback, the Honey Badger,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Tyron Matthew from LSU, and Aaron Taylor from Notre Dame.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: There is one.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: playoff baseball game on the schedule tonight because there's only
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: one of those series left. The others ended last night.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: The Guardians and the White Sox in Chicago with the
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: White Sox holding a two games to one lead after
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: the Guardians won a game yesterday to stave off elimination.
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: The Dodgers eliminated the Braves last night.
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: Four to one. They just keep being the Dodgers.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: The Rays eliminated the Yankees 4-3. And late last night,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Brewers took care of the Padres 3-1 to advance. So,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: if you're keeping score, the Dodgers are in. The Rays
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: are in. The Brewers are in.
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: And it's the.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Guardians and the White Sox still playing. Major League Baseball
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: has proposed shortening its regular season from 162 to 154
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: games starting in 2029 and expanding the division series to
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: a best-of-seven format. The proposal is coming today as part
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: of negotiations with the MLB Players Association and on a
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: new collective bargaining agreement. MLB wants to allow higher-seeded teams
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: to choose their opponents, both in the wild card and
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: the division rounds.
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: I think that's a horrible idea.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: The 154-game schedule would be a return to the MLB
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: calendar prior to 1960. MLB spokesperson Glenn Kaplan said in
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: a statement returning to a 154-game schedule would allow us
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: to introduce a weekly off day, which is good for
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: players' health, and also creating a new national broadcast window.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: MLBPA said in a statement it's reviewing the proposals, adding
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: any changes are contingent on players' agreement to a salary cap,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: which the union has balked at. Under today's proposal, Monday
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: would be a standard day off for most teams, with
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: the exception of televising one or two national broadcasts. Holidays
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: and other special events would negate the full league off day.
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: Teams that play on Monday would be.
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: Off on Thursday.
• 8:09
  Speaker 7: And.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: George Foreman's house is for sale on Lake Houston in
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Northeast Houston, a 13 and a half acre estate, which
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: includes 11,000 square foot garage that housed Foreman's collection of
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: 40 luxury cars, air conditioned dog kennel, a large pond
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: where he taught his grandchildren to fish and A stand-alone
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: hair salon built for his wife.
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: An air conditioning room to store fur coats.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: A little more than 18 months after Foreman died at
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: age 76, he's preparing to sell the estate for $ 6 million.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: There's an almost 12,000 square foot home on the market
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: this week on Lake Houston. Love me some George Foreman,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: one of our great guests on the show over the years,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: a friend of the show. We're going to hear from
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: Brent Venables coming up. We have got a high school report.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Tafiq Bayard, who was a huge addition last week, had
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: been hurt for the Aggie secondary. We are going to
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: hear from Bucky. We didn't do that earlier in the week.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: We have our Clark Eisenhower outdoor edition with some really
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: nasty animals attacking this week and a trip to the
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Everglades coming up. So we've got all that coming up
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: and I'm sure more. as we take a look around
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: the world of sports and what's going on. The Yankees
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: got swept, of course. We're all just sick about that
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: around here. But the Tampa Bay Rays are into the
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: next round of the playoffs. So, I mean, that kind
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: of gives hope to Rangers fans because the Rays don't
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: spend billions of dollars, you know.
• 10:32
  Speaker 5: They're pretty good.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: You have to have a really good manager, which they did,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: and the.
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: Rangers used to.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: But, hey, I guess that's a story for another day.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Let's take a break. We'll come back. This portion of

• 12:01
  Speaker 10: Back through the years I go wandering once again Back
• 12:07
  Speaker 10: to the seasons of my youth I recall a box
• 12:13
  Speaker 10: of rags that someone gave us And how my mama
• 12:19
  Speaker 10: put the rags to use There were rags of many
• 12:25
  Speaker 10: colors But every piece was small And I didn't have
• 12:30
  Speaker 10: a coat. And it was a way down in the fall.
• 12:34
  Speaker 10: Mama sewed the rags together. So in every piece with love,
• 12:39
  Speaker 10: she made my coat of many colors. That I was
• 12:44
  Speaker 10: so proud of. As she sewed, she tore it from
• 12:48
  Speaker 10: the bottom.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: That's the great Dolly Parton.
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: Thanks for being with us here on a Thursday. Coach Franz, family.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Sent me a few minutes ago the details of his
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: memorial service, which will be held Monday, October 19th at
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: the worship place at Sun City, where he had been
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: living in Georgetown. A reception, by the way, that's two
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: o'clock on the 19th of October. A reception would follow
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: at the Georgetown Community Center on from 3 to 6 p.m.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: I'll remind you again that if you missed the interview
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: that we replayed from two years ago with Coach Fran,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: we've had a lot of feedback on that. That is
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: up on our interview page on our website. It's also
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: up on our podcast from Tuesday afternoon in the second hour.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: You can always listen in at chiphoward.com, zone1150. com, There's really
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: no excuse to miss anything here on this program. And
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: you shouldn't miss anything here. What's Jeff Traylor handing out?
• 14:06
  Speaker 11: Ribs?
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: What is he handing out?
• 14:09
  Speaker 12: Ribs!
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Jeff Traylor is handing out ribs at the Alamo Dough.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I wish Jeff Traylor would come here to Kyle Field
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: and hand out ribs. You think Elko's going to hand
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: us some ribs? Before a game, maybe with the Citadel
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: on next Saturday.
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: I know he's listening.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: So, Coach, this is a great idea, handing ribs out. Now,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Trailer was handing out ribs to fans. I want you, Coach,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: to hand out ribs to the media. We used to
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: eat really well up there, but we don't anymore. So,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: ribs would be really, really good. We'd appreciate that. Tomorrow,
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: I visit with Kirk Bowles, who will be covering... I
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: didn't ask him. I'm guessing close to his 50th Texas-Oklahoma
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: game in the Cotton Bowl Saturday. We'll visit with Kirk
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: Bowles tomorrow afternoon. I'll visit with Tony Catalina also tomorrow
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: afternoon in the 5 o'clock hour. Tony from 247 Sports
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: on with us on Fridays with the Aggie Football Preview.
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: Caleb will be in and Ryan will be in for
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: the show tomorrow.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Speaking of the Cotton Bowl, Texas and Oklahoma play Saturday. 1929,
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: they've been at the state fair. So what is that,
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: 97 years? That's my Richardson high math telling me it's
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: been 97 years straight. that they played at the State
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Fair of Texas. They started playing long before that. But
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: that game will kick off at 2.30. We're going to
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: listen to Oklahoma football coach Brent Venables.
• 16:07
  Speaker 6: See you, everybody.
• 16:08
  Speaker 13: Excited about going down to Dallas, playing in the biggest,
• 16:14
  Speaker 13: best rivalry in all of college football. Really exciting game.
• 16:18
  Speaker 13: Have an opportunity to play a great opponent in Texas
• 16:22
  Speaker 13: and the team that they have this year. Really impressive,
• 16:28
  Speaker 13: both lines of scrimmage, how they've built the team and
• 16:31
  Speaker 13: developed it. Excellent job that Will Muschamp has done with
• 16:38
  Speaker 13: the defense. Really aggressive. Colin Simmons, probably the first defensive
• 16:44
  Speaker 13: player taken off the board in the very near future.
• 16:48
  Speaker 13: They've got playmakers at all three levels doing a fantastic
• 16:51
  Speaker 13: job playing complimentary defense, both in the front and the
• 16:55
  Speaker 13: back end. And then offensively, again, they've got great balance
• 16:59
  Speaker 13: in what they're doing, both their run game and what
• 17:02
  Speaker 13: they're doing, throwing the ball vertically to Wingo Coleman, the
• 17:06
  Speaker 13: tight ends, the backs. Steve's done a great job just
• 17:12
  Speaker 13: coordinating the offense and finding ways to get the playmakers
• 17:16
  Speaker 13: the ball in their hands. And then again, excellent in
• 17:21
  Speaker 13: the kicking game as well, like always. So it'll be
• 17:24
  Speaker 13: a great, great challenge for our guys. And our guys
• 17:26
  Speaker 13: are excited to have an opportunity to go back out
• 17:29
  Speaker 13: and compete and have an opportunity to go eight straight here,
• 17:35
  Speaker 13: starting with Texas this week. And a wonderful challenge, a
• 17:38
  Speaker 13: wonderful opportunity, a big challenge. But again, a wonderful opportunity
• 17:41
  Speaker 13: for our guys to get to playing our best football.
• 17:45
  Speaker 13: We haven't done that up to this point in time.
• 17:48
  Speaker 13: have been excellent in some different areas and different moments,
• 17:50
  Speaker 13: but this is an opportunity for us to be able
• 17:54
  Speaker 13: to play our best football. And we're going to need
• 17:56
  Speaker 13: to here this week to have an opportunity to win
• 17:59
  Speaker 13: and certainly thereafter.
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: We'll start with George. Yeah, Brent. Bill Biedenboe has coached
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: the offensive line.
• 18:07
  Speaker 14: Here for some time it seems over the last two
• 18:10
  Speaker 14: or three years you guys have had some instability with
• 18:12
  Speaker 14: that position group what do you maybe attribute that to
• 18:15
  Speaker 14: and what do you like about the development and trajectory
• 18:17
  Speaker 14: of that position group.
• 18:18
  Speaker 13: Under bill going forward yeah i like a lot of
• 18:21
  Speaker 13: the players that are in there now and certainly what
• 18:23
  Speaker 13: we've recruited uh it's been incredibly inconsistent very disappointing you
• 18:28
  Speaker 13: know as you build your football team that's a critical
• 18:31
  Speaker 13: place that is a place that probably requires the most
• 18:34
  Speaker 13: development of any position that uh you have on your roster,
• 18:40
  Speaker 13: and we haven't allowed for lots of different reasons. The
• 18:43
  Speaker 13: portal is the number one reason, and the opportunity to
• 18:48
  Speaker 13: our first couple of years, you had two free agent windows, and,
• 18:53
  Speaker 13: you know, so guys could come and go. So the
• 18:55
  Speaker 13: instability because of the climate was a big part of it.
• 18:59
  Speaker 13: Certainly didn't do a very uneven job when it comes
• 19:05
  Speaker 13: to– Choosing the guys that we've brought in here, way
• 19:10
  Speaker 13: too many guys are coming and going at that position group,
• 19:13
  Speaker 13: and we need continuity and consistency in order to develop
• 19:17
  Speaker 13: that group into what we want. We've got six guys
• 19:20
  Speaker 13: coming in, and the 27 class can be incredibly important
• 19:24
  Speaker 13: to bring back a good majority of the guys that
• 19:27
  Speaker 13: are already here that are young guys that are developing
• 19:31
  Speaker 13: as we speak. But it's been very unstable and certainly
• 19:35
  Speaker 13: not the kind of development that you want you know,
• 19:38
  Speaker 13: from top to bottom.
• 19:41
  Speaker 11: Yeah, Brett.
• 19:41
  Speaker 6: This time last year, John did everything he could to
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: play in this game. What did you learn about him.
• 19:45
  Speaker 15: Looking back to that time, and what have you seen
• 19:47
  Speaker 15: from him the last couple of weeks as he goes
• 19:49
  Speaker 15: through another challenge?
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: Time?
• 19:50
  Speaker 13: Again, a guy that loves to compete. He cares about
• 19:53
  Speaker 13: being a great teammate, being the leader of our football team,
• 19:57
  Speaker 13: playing well. He carries, again, a heavy weight when it
• 20:02
  Speaker 13: comes to that. Great self-awareness. Doesn't have his head in
• 20:05
  Speaker 13: the sand and cares about his opportunity and certainly cares
• 20:10
  Speaker 13: about you know, representing a place like Oklahoma at quarterback
• 20:13
  Speaker 13: is a big deal and nobody's more disappointed, you know, in, um,
• 20:19
  Speaker 13: not playing up to the standard that, um, he wants to,
• 20:22
  Speaker 13: he certainly is capable of, and certainly what, you know, uh,
• 20:27
  Speaker 13: university of Oklahoma has been used to, you know, over
• 20:29
  Speaker 13: a long period of time, but his best football is, uh,
• 20:32
  Speaker 13: has been really good. And, uh, we've got to help
• 20:35
  Speaker 13: him play a little more consistent. Everybody around him has
• 20:37
  Speaker 13: got to play better. And, um, Again, don't press as
• 20:41
  Speaker 13: much as anything else. Last week he had, again, a
• 20:46
  Speaker 13: good week and responded well. Not an easy thing to do,
• 20:52
  Speaker 13: but believe in him.
• 20:55
  Speaker 16: Brent, I wanted to ask you about special teams.
• 20:58
  Speaker 6: Obviously, Tate hasn't had a ton of opportunities yet. There
• 21:01
  Speaker 6: have been some tough kicks there. You guys had Jacobs.
• 21:06
  Speaker 17: Out punting against Georgia just how do you feel about
• 21:08
  Speaker 17: kind of where that group's at right now?
• 21:10
  Speaker 13: I feel good about it I'm obviously don't want to
• 21:12
  Speaker 13: miss any kicks ever and as well as take kick
• 21:16
  Speaker 13: last year he's missed a couple this year but I
• 21:19
  Speaker 13: feel really good again Jacob had an excellent day out
• 21:23
  Speaker 13: there in Athens as well again he was our starting
• 21:29
  Speaker 13: punter a little over a year ago and until it
• 21:32
  Speaker 13: wasn't after his injury. And Grayson came in, did a
• 21:35
  Speaker 13: great job. But I really feel like we have two
• 21:37
  Speaker 13: really good punters and a fantastic group of kickers as well.
• 21:44
  Speaker 16: For most of this, since you guys got here in 99,
• 21:46
  Speaker 16: you guys have had to jump on Texas, not just head-to-head,
• 21:50
  Speaker 16: but just overall success. Last three or four years, they've
• 21:53
  Speaker 16: risen up. How much tougher is it for Oklahoma to
• 21:57
  Speaker 16: succeed in football? Not just with the new SEC, but
• 22:01
  Speaker 16: when Texas is doing what they're doing.
• 22:04
  Speaker 13: Yeah, I think they can go hand in hand as
• 22:07
  Speaker 13: far as Oklahoma being successful and Texas being successful in
• 22:12
  Speaker 13: the mid-2000s when they won a national championship. They had
• 22:15
  Speaker 13: a very good run in the 2000s. Regardless of whatever,
• 22:23
  Speaker 13: I think we had won five in a row at
• 22:25
  Speaker 13: one point in time. But Both programs have been, you know,
• 22:30
  Speaker 13: very fruitful simultaneously. So I don't think one has to
• 22:37
  Speaker 13: do with the other. You know, one's success is one's demise.
• 22:41
  Speaker 13: I don't believe that at all. So I think going
• 22:44
  Speaker 13: to the SEC has created even more opportunity for both
• 22:47
  Speaker 13: programs to grow. Everybody's situation is different in transitioning. But,
• 22:55
  Speaker 13: you know, I think their success– is kind of on
• 22:58
  Speaker 13: their own as well as ours.
• 23:02
  Speaker 18: Jenny?
• 23:03
  Speaker 16: Brent, looking at Texas, it looks like they have an edge,
• 23:06
  Speaker 16: a toughness.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know what word you.
• 23:09
  Speaker 13: An edge against us?
• 23:10
  Speaker 18: No, just an edge to their play.
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: I got you. I'm sorry.
• 23:13
  Speaker 19: An edge to their play this season, whether you look
• 23:15
  Speaker 19: at a guy like Simmons or the comeback against Ohio.
• 23:18
  Speaker 20: State or run defense or whatever you want to look at.
• 23:22
  Speaker 21: For you, do you see an area where that really.
• 23:25
  Speaker 15: is evident and what's the biggest challenge when you're facing
• 23:28
  Speaker 15: a team that does maybe seem to have.
• 23:30
  Speaker 20: A little bit of a grid or whatever word.
• 23:32
  Speaker 18: You want to ascribe to them?
• 23:33
  Speaker 13: Yeah, I think they're like a lot of teams we play.
• 23:35
  Speaker 13: They got good players that are developed that play at
• 23:38
  Speaker 13: a really high level. They're confident, play with great chemistry,
• 23:42
  Speaker 13: coached well, you know, play with great, you know, passion
• 23:47
  Speaker 13: and energy and intensity. But, Again, you have good players
• 23:52
  Speaker 13: that work hard and develop. I think you see them
• 23:55
  Speaker 13: play with that proverbial edge. And that's what good teams have.
• 24:01
  Speaker 13: You have players that are like that, units that play
• 24:03
  Speaker 13: with great toughness and great pride. And that's what they have, certainly,
• 24:09
  Speaker 13: on defense. They've had it the last few years.
• 24:11
  Speaker 22: Second row, Ryan Abraham.
• 24:15
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 24:16
  Speaker 15: Brent, obviously every year a bye week is a chance
• 24:20
  Speaker 15: to reevaluate some things and do some different work internally.
• 24:25
  Speaker 15: The work with the offense, though, the last week, how
• 24:27
  Speaker 15: is that compared to maybe some other years, especially like
• 24:31
  Speaker 15: maybe two years ago when you were struggling offensively going
• 24:34
  Speaker 15: into this game off a bye week, and just the
• 24:38
  Speaker 15: rebuilding or reworking and going back to fundamentals.
• 24:41
  Speaker 6: Things like that?
• 24:43
  Speaker 13: Yeah, a couple of years ago I think we had
• 24:44
  Speaker 13: nine starters out, On offense a little bit different certain
• 24:48
  Speaker 13: same struggle But yeah, we just again the bye weeks
• 24:53
  Speaker 13: are exactly what you know I feel like I've been
• 24:56
  Speaker 13: talking about the bye week for a while now But
• 24:59
  Speaker 13: you need to go back and look at what you're
• 25:00
  Speaker 13: doing from a tendency standpoint Efficiency standpoint what's good what
• 25:04
  Speaker 13: you can build on what needs to be corrected and
• 25:07
  Speaker 13: fix what you need to throw out and Get players
• 25:11
  Speaker 13: healthy You know mentally and physically both and coaches And then,
• 25:16
  Speaker 13: you know, as much as anything, you know, really focus
• 25:18
  Speaker 13: on fundamentals, giving guys opportunities. You continue to try to
• 25:22
  Speaker 13: build the depth on your team and anticipate opportunities for
• 25:27
  Speaker 13: more guys to be able to play. Give them the
• 25:29
  Speaker 13: opportunity to develop as well, but keep it about the basics,
• 25:33
  Speaker 13: the fundamentals, techniques, a lot of good on good as well.
• 25:38
  Speaker 13: And so that's really where we've spent our time. But
• 25:40
  Speaker 13: you know, how, how we can get into a rhythm,
• 25:42
  Speaker 13: you know, and we've been under a lot of pressure.
• 25:45
  Speaker 13: We need to apply the pressure and, uh, you know,
• 25:48
  Speaker 13: get back to, you know, what I know that we're
• 25:50
  Speaker 13: capable of, uh, offensively speaking. So, but everybody, you know,
• 25:54
  Speaker 13: had took the opportunity to, to improve, get better, gain
• 25:58
  Speaker 13: some confidence through the work. And, um, and again, every,
• 26:02
  Speaker 13: every week is a season of its own, as you've
• 26:04
  Speaker 13: seen in college football.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Sprint Venables embattled Oklahoma coach and, uh, You know, winning
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: this game would, I'm not going to say make their season.
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: They expect more than that at Oklahoma, for sure.
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: But it would help ease the pain and the pressure
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: on Brent Venables, without question. Texas, I believe, is correct,
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: has won three of the last four games. And I
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: don't think Oklahoma scored a touchdown in the three losses,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: which is pretty remarkable. They hadn't scored a touchdown in
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: the last two games, which, you know, they've lost back-to-back.
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: And Sooner Nation is not real accepting of that. I
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: think there is more, let's say, dislike for the offensive
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: coordinator than there is for the head coach right now
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: arbuckle he's young and um you know you're always looking
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: for excuses there there's you know i've heard all kinds
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: of things that hey homan homan wiggins is not doing
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: a good job now i'll say the same thing about
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: Arbuckle than I will about Wiggins. When your quarterback is
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: playing like that, and Mateer's been terrible, he has played
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: very poorly.
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: For a guy who is.
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: Being mentioned early last year as a Heisman Trophy candidate,
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: which if you follow me, you know that I never
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: bought into that. I never thought he was that. And
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: that's certainly been proven. that he's not that. He just
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: needs to hold on to the freaking football. I mean,
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: he has to take care of the football. Against Georgia,
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: that was just a comedy of errors. And Georgia doesn't
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: need any help. I feel like this is going to
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: be a low-scoring game. I think Oklahoma's defense is really good.
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: They will play with as well as they can play Saturday.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: I think Texas' defense is really good. Oklahoma's offense isn't
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: very good. Texas' offense isn't very good. I think it
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: will be a low-scoring game.
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: I really do.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: And I saw the over and under at like 39
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: or something. And I would go under that. But this
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: is why I don't bet. It will probably be 50
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: to 49. But I would go under. I would take
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: the under of 39 or 39.5. Because I just don't
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: think there's going to be a lot of points scored.
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: Which means turnovers. Turnovers.
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: Always huge in a game like this because of the
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: swing from momentum from one end of the.
• 29:12
  Speaker 5: Field to the other. Sark described it as.
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: Playing a home game on your end and an away
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: game on their end.
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: And I think that's a fair description.
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: All right. We're going to have a high school report.
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: We're going to hear from Tafik Bayard coming up. Is
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: that a piñata?
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: I like that. In San Antonio, they're banging the pinata.
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: They hadn't been done too.
• 29:36
  Speaker 6: Well, though.
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: They hadn't got any candy out of it.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: We've got the Clark Eisenhower outdoor edition coming your way
• 29:43

  Speaker 22: life of sin I.
• 32:30
  Speaker 18: Have paid the cost.
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: When I pass by All the people say Welcome into
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: the High School Report.
• 32:41
  Speaker 23: I'm Caleb Rapley and today we are jumping out to
• 32:43
  Speaker 23: the Polaris Fun Center phone line to visit with the
• 32:46
  Speaker 23: head coach of the College Station Lady Cougars volleyball team,
• 32:49
  Speaker 23: Miss Ashley Davis. Coach, thanks for joining me today.
• 32:52
  Speaker 18: Of course.
• 32:53
  Speaker 23: So we're getting pretty close to the end of the
• 32:54
  Speaker 23: regular season now. What do you think are some of
• 32:57
  Speaker 23: your biggest strengths as a team and what are just
• 32:59
  Speaker 23: some of your takeaways from this season so far?
• 33:02
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I think that, you know, we played three really,
• 33:06
  Speaker 12: really tough tournaments to get us prepared for our district.
• 33:12
  Speaker 12: And we battled through some injuries and, you know, have
• 33:19
  Speaker 12: split with Lake Creek and just excited to really be
• 33:26
  Speaker 12: two wins away from probably securing a playoff spot.
• 33:29
  Speaker 23: So one thing about volleyball that makes it different from
• 33:31
  Speaker 23: other sports is is just the total number of games
• 33:35
  Speaker 23: that a high school volleyball team can play in one season.
• 33:37
  Speaker 23: It's kind of staggering, even compared to sports like basketball
• 33:40
  Speaker 23: and baseball that play multiple times in a week. There's
• 33:43
  Speaker 23: not really a whole lot of other sports where you
• 33:45
  Speaker 23: can play three matches in one day pretty regularly. In
• 33:49
  Speaker 23: any sport in high school athletics, there's always a lot
• 33:51
  Speaker 23: of roster turnover with seniors graduating. I know you had
• 33:54
  Speaker 23: seven seniors on your team last year. So how much
• 33:56
  Speaker 23: of an advantage is it for you getting to play
• 33:59
  Speaker 23: in all of these tournaments now so that you can
• 34:00
  Speaker 23: see these young players that maybe weren't on varsity last
• 34:03
  Speaker 23: year get them in the game a lot before district play.
• 34:07
  Speaker 23: How much of an advantage is that for you as
• 34:08
  Speaker 23: a coach, having that many games to look back on
• 34:10
  Speaker 23: when you're putting your lineups together in district play and
• 34:13
  Speaker 23: the games that are going to decide whether or not you.
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: Make the playoffs?
• 34:16
  Speaker 12: Yeah, I think that obviously we lost an All-American last year,
• 34:21
  Speaker 12: and so that was finding our groove, and she was
• 34:24
  Speaker 12: a four-year starter as a setter, and so like I
• 34:28
  Speaker 12: think that our setters, Grace Conley and Cheyenne Tronza, really
• 34:34
  Speaker 12: have stepped up into that role. And I think that
• 34:38
  Speaker 12: playing that many matches clearly gives us an advantage to
• 34:44
  Speaker 12: get better, right, and progress better. as far as seeing
• 34:50
  Speaker 12: what lineups work, which lineups don't work, and things like that.
• 34:55
  Speaker 12: And so I think a lot of these kids are
• 34:57
  Speaker 12: just used to it by playing club. That's a regular
• 35:01
  Speaker 12: weekend for them to play 10 matches.
• 35:04
  Speaker 18: On a weekend.
• 35:05
  Speaker 12: And in club season, they may play 80 matches. In
• 35:08
  Speaker 12: high school season, they play 50. So they're playing like
• 35:09
  Speaker 12: professional schedules year-round. for some of these kiddos. And so
• 35:18
  Speaker 12: I think for us, it's just like managing, you know,
• 35:23
  Speaker 12: kids burning out, managing their bodies, managing a lot of
• 35:27
  Speaker 12: different things that are unique to our sport versus some
• 35:30
  Speaker 12: other sports that are going on, you know?
• 35:33
  Speaker 22: Right.
• 35:34
  Speaker 23: So you're in your fifth year as the head coach
• 35:36
  Speaker 23: at College Station. This is a program that's really been
• 35:39
  Speaker 23: a perennial powerhouse. I don't think College Station has ever
• 35:41
  Speaker 23: missed the playoffs in volleyball since CSHS was founded. So
• 35:46
  Speaker 23: with that success, you know, there does come a little
• 35:48
  Speaker 23: bit of pressure. So how do you handle that? Having
• 35:51
  Speaker 23: these kids that grew up watching Lady Cougar volleyball, it's
• 35:54
  Speaker 23: just an expectation to make the playoffs. But how do
• 35:56
  Speaker 23: you handle that as a coach?
• 35:58
  Speaker 18: It's culture. I think it's tradition. I think.
• 36:03
  Speaker 12: Those things definitely factor into what we're doing. There's a
• 36:07
  Speaker 12: standard set that's a standard of winning, right? And excellence
• 36:14
  Speaker 12: really is what it is.
• 36:16
  Speaker 18: And so when we.
• 36:16
  Speaker 12: Set that standard of excellence, that's what we're trying to
• 36:19
  Speaker 12: achieve every single year.
• 36:22
  Speaker 18: And they get it. So it's nice, right?
• 36:24
  Speaker 12: So they're putting in work in the off season to
• 36:26
  Speaker 12: make sure that they're ready for the season. And they
• 36:30
  Speaker 12: kind of know what it takes because of the people
• 36:32
  Speaker 12: that have come before them. And so I think that
• 36:35
  Speaker 12: that's really a testament to how the school opened. Even
• 36:39
  Speaker 12: though this is year five for me, there were coaches
• 36:42
  Speaker 12: that established this before me. So that was nice, right?
• 36:45
  Speaker 12: And so I just get to build off of what
• 36:48
  Speaker 12: was already established in our culture as a school, honestly.
• 36:53
  Speaker 18: We have our Cougar values that we live by throughout
• 36:56
  Speaker 18: the sports.
• 36:58
  Speaker 12: And, you know, there's a unity there between and across
• 37:03
  Speaker 12: sports here.
• 37:05
  Speaker 23: What are some goals that you set for this team
• 37:07
  Speaker 23: at the beginning of the season? And how would you
• 37:09
  Speaker 23: say that they've lived up to those goals this year?
• 37:12
  Speaker 12: We kind of typically start with a 31 season. That's
• 37:16
  Speaker 12: our overarching goal from a numerical standpoint. You know, district
• 37:23
  Speaker 12: champions is something that we strive for every single year.
• 37:28
  Speaker 12: Sometimes we fall short, but if we're striving to be
• 37:30
  Speaker 12: district champions and we fall short by one or two places,
• 37:34
  Speaker 12: then we get ourselves in the playoffs, and we know
• 37:37
  Speaker 12: that we're in a really tough district.
• 37:39
  Speaker 18: So we know that we will be prepared.
• 37:42
  Speaker 12: For the first three rounds whenever we– get into playoffs.
• 37:47
  Speaker 12: And then hopefully we match back up with our own
• 37:50
  Speaker 12: district in the regional final to go to state.
• 37:52
  Speaker 18: Right.
• 37:53
  Speaker 12: And that has been the last two years that has
• 37:55
  Speaker 12: been the case. And that's, that's the goal for this
• 37:58
  Speaker 12: year too, is to get ourselves to that place.
• 38:01
  Speaker 18: Um, and then week by week, just trying to get
• 38:05
  Speaker 18: better and.
• 38:05
  Speaker 12: Setting weekly goals to do that and not getting complacent
• 38:09
  Speaker 12: within the season.
• 38:10
  Speaker 23: So only five regular season matches left in this season.
• 38:14
  Speaker 23: The first of which is tomorrow night going on the
• 38:17
  Speaker 23: road to play Montgomery. You matched up against the Lady
• 38:20
  Speaker 23: Bears about a month ago, lost in four sets at home.
• 38:23
  Speaker 23: So what is it going to take to go to
• 38:24
  Speaker 23: Montgomery and get a win tomorrow night?
• 38:26
  Speaker 18: Getting percentage has to be a little bit better.
• 38:28
  Speaker 12: I mean, that's a lot of times where, you know,
• 38:34
  Speaker 12: errors in volleyball, right?
• 38:35
  Speaker 18: You see these big point swings, even in collegiate.
• 38:38
  Speaker 12: Volleyball, where somebody will win 25-15 and then the next
• 38:41
  Speaker 12: set they lose 25.
• 38:43
  Speaker 18: 15, 25.
• 38:45
  Speaker 12: And so I think it's just a consistency and some
• 38:48
  Speaker 12: of our younger pieces and they're getting there.
• 38:51
  Speaker 7: Right.
• 38:52
  Speaker 18: And so I, I'm happy with our progress.
• 38:55
  Speaker 12: I'm happy with our personnel and what we're intending to do.
• 38:59
  Speaker 12: So I think for us in that game, um, we
• 39:02
  Speaker 12: just had too many hitting errors and that's really the difference.
• 39:06
  Speaker 12: I think the last three sets were all determined by
• 39:08
  Speaker 12: two points. Um, the first set we lost 2025 and
• 39:11
  Speaker 12: the next three we We're determined within two points. And
• 39:16
  Speaker 12: so I think that we can't miss as many serves.
• 39:21
  Speaker 12: We've got to pass probably above a two. And then
• 39:25
  Speaker 12: we have to hit above a 200. And I think
• 39:28
  Speaker 12: if we can do those things, then we will.
• 39:30
  Speaker 6: That match. All right, Coach.
• 39:31
  Speaker 23: Well, I appreciate your time today, and good luck to
• 39:33
  Speaker 23: your Lady Cougars the rest of the season.
• 39:35
  Speaker 15: All right.
• 39:36
  Speaker 18: Thank you so much.

  Speaker 20: The Houston Texans are heading to Nashville this weekend in
• 42:21
  Speaker 20: search of their first win this year, and now we're
• 42:23
  Speaker 20: seeing some changes with the play call. Head coach Tobigo
• 42:26
  Speaker 20: Ryans announced yesterday that he will be taking over as
• 42:28
  Speaker 20: the defensive play caller instead of the defensive coordinator Matt Burke.
• 42:32
  Speaker 20: The Texans entered this season as one of the most
• 42:34
  Speaker 20: feared defenses in the league after a top five finish
• 42:36
  Speaker 20: a year ago. Now the squad is looking for answers
• 42:38
  Speaker 20: with over 27 points allowed per game. Hopefully the new
• 42:41
  Speaker 20: play calling is the fix. Texans General Manager Nick Casario
• 42:45
  Speaker 20: joined Texans Radio yesterday to discuss how the team is
• 42:47
  Speaker 20: dealing with the noise and pressure surrounding the team.
• 42:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, look, you've got to be disciplined.
• 42:51
  Speaker 25: You just have to go about your process. There's nothing
• 42:53
  Speaker 25: that we can do or change, kind of what's happened
• 42:55
  Speaker 25: here the last four weeks. All we can do is
• 42:56
  Speaker 25: sort of understand what has happened and then moving forward,
• 42:59
  Speaker 25: try to figure out and come up with some solutions. But,
• 43:01
  Speaker 25: I mean, everybody approaches their, I would say, day-to-day and
• 43:04
  Speaker 25: their business a little bit differently, but you've just got
• 43:06
  Speaker 25: to be disciplined and focused on where you are today.
• 43:08
  Speaker 25: What's in front of you? You just have to go
• 43:10

  Speaker 1: That's the old pee-picker himself, Tennessee Ernie Ford.
• 45:31
  Speaker 5: Let me see.
• 45:33
  Speaker 28: I'm going to guess 1961. 60. That's my guess.
• 45:47
  Speaker 5: Could be earlier. What was your guess?
• 45:53
  Speaker 6: 60, 61.
• 45:55
  Speaker 5: Released in 1955. Oh, okay. All right. Okay. Darn it.
• 46:02
  Speaker 5: I'm usually better than that. Okay.
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: By the way, Bill O'Reilly is going to join us
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: a week from.
• 46:12
  Speaker 11: Monday?
• 46:14
  Speaker 5: Maybe two weeks from Monday, actually.
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: Confronting America is his new book, and he will be
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: with us coming up to talk about that book.
• 46:24
  Speaker 5: Okay. I told you.
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: Topeak Bayard has had some injuries early in the year,
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: but he showed out on Saturday against Arkansas and visited
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: with reporter types this week.
• 46:38
  Speaker 6: Back healthy and just being able to get out there
• 46:39
  Speaker 6: a little more. Yeah, it's been good. I've been dealing
• 46:43
  Speaker 6: with some injuries coming into fall camp. Before the first
• 46:46
  Speaker 6: game of the first week, I banged up my ankle
• 46:47
  Speaker 6: a little bit. So just getting back in the routine,
• 46:51
  Speaker 6: getting back in shape, and getting back to doing what
• 46:53
  Speaker 6: I do. When did you feel like things were back
• 46:57
  Speaker 6: to 100%.
• 46:57
  Speaker 27: Again, that you'd be able to have the impact you
• 47:00
  Speaker 27: did in the last game?
• 47:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I've been healthy since Kentucky. So just getting back
• 47:05
  Speaker 6: in the groove of things, just being available whenever my
• 47:07
  Speaker 6: number's called. How much do you enjoy kind of being
• 47:10
  Speaker 6: that hard-hitting safety? Is that always kind of your thing? Yeah,
• 47:13
  Speaker 6: I love it. You know, it's funny. I just translated
• 47:16
  Speaker 6: into being this type of safety, hard-hitting safety, you know.
• 47:19
  Speaker 6: When I got to college and high school, I just
• 47:20
  Speaker 6: played center field, you know, caught a lot of interceptions,
• 47:22
  Speaker 6: you know. You know, I ain't the 6'3, 6' long
• 47:25
  Speaker 6: range of safety. So, you know, I had to adapt,
• 47:26
  Speaker 6: you know, putting my head in there and getting physical.
• 47:29
  Speaker 23: What do you kind of see from, I know it's
• 47:31
  Speaker 23: your first year here, but what do you kind of see, like,
• 47:33
  Speaker 23: the biggest, best thing that's happened.
• 47:35
  Speaker 6: Since you got here? Definitely just with the conditioning program.
• 47:38
  Speaker 6: Coach Moffitt does a great job getting the guys in shape,
• 47:40
  Speaker 6: getting the guys bigger, getting the guys ready to go
• 47:42
  Speaker 6: for the season. In my past couple of years, Just conditioning,
• 47:46
  Speaker 6: you know, it was kind of up and down, but
• 47:47
  Speaker 6: here it's like a steady, you know, and they take
• 47:49
  Speaker 6: care of you on the field and off the field,
• 47:51
  Speaker 6: nutrition and everything. So I'd say that's been the biggest
• 47:53
  Speaker 6: part for me.
• 47:54
  Speaker 20: Kentucky and LSU secondary gave up a lot of explosive plays,
• 47:58
  Speaker 20: not as much against Arkansas.
• 48:00
  Speaker 6: Why would you say that changed? Communication. You know, that
• 48:04
  Speaker 6: was the biggest thing. You know, the plays we let
• 48:06
  Speaker 6: up versus LSU, the plays we let up versus Kentucky
• 48:08
  Speaker 6: were all our fault. You know, we didn't communicate. We
• 48:10
  Speaker 6: didn't see this guy do this. We didn't see this
• 48:12
  Speaker 6: guy do that. So, You know, we went in there
• 48:14
  Speaker 6: last week on Wednesday. You know, we watched it as
• 48:15
  Speaker 6: a team, as a defensive back. You know, we got everything.
• 48:19
  Speaker 6: All the X's, though, ironed out, so we were.
• 48:21
  Speaker 15: Ready to go against Arkansas.
• 48:27
  Speaker 6: I don't think it was anything different. I think we
• 48:29
  Speaker 6: just dialed in and we just, you know, executed. In
• 48:32
  Speaker 6: the past, we haven't executed coming out of the half.
• 48:34
  Speaker 6: This week, we executed coming out of the half. I
• 48:36
  Speaker 6: think that was good. You have a.
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: Doug, that would be reputation that you were talking about earlier.
• 48:43
  Speaker 6: It's very physical safety.
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: Why don't you give us the scouting report on you
• 48:48
  Speaker 3: as a, you know, in pass coverage.
• 48:51
  Speaker 6: I can do it all in pass coverage. You know,
• 48:53
  Speaker 6: man-to-man on tight ends. I can play the deep third.
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: I can play the half. I can play the hook.
• 48:56
  Speaker 6: You know, I can do whatever the coaches ask me.
• 48:59
  Speaker 6: I guess the hard hitting is just what I do best,
• 49:03
  Speaker 6: I guess you should say. But, you know, I can
• 49:04
  Speaker 6: do it all in pass coverage too.
• 49:06
  Speaker 29: Do you feel like y'all are better secondary with having
• 49:09
  Speaker 29: you and Chance Collins kind of in the mix and
• 49:11
  Speaker 29: being able to rotate.
• 49:12
  Speaker 6: Guys through a game? Yeah, it's always good to have
• 49:15
  Speaker 6: bodies you know, that can play. You know, me and Chance,
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: you know, guys that are new to coming in this program,
• 49:19
  Speaker 6: you know, sitting behind Rat and Brooks, you know, those
• 49:21
  Speaker 6: guys have been in the system for two, three years now. So,
• 49:23
  Speaker 6: you know, they know the ins and outs and everything,
• 49:25
  Speaker 6: you know, and they've always been very helpful. You know,
• 49:27
  Speaker 6: me asking Rat Marcus a question, he's always been very helpful.
• 49:30
  Speaker 6: Asking Dot a question, he's been very helpful. Chance has
• 49:32
  Speaker 6: done a great job, you know, being a young guy
• 49:33
  Speaker 6: coming up and just being a sponge, really, and gravitating
• 49:36
  Speaker 6: on all this information.
• 49:38
  Speaker 21: Talk about some of the physical changes this offseason.
• 49:40
  Speaker 14: I'm just curious, like, did you have any serious, like,
• 49:43
  Speaker 14: weight changes or, you know, lifting gains that you had?
• 49:46
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I think last year I played the majority of
• 49:50
  Speaker 6: the season around, like, 189, 190. Now I'm, like, 198,
• 49:54
  Speaker 6: 200 pounds. So about a 10-pound difference, you know, it
• 49:57
  Speaker 6: helps with these bigger bats in the SEC. You know,
• 49:59
  Speaker 6: guys are a lot bigger, a lot stronger. You can't
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: just throw a shoulder and you have to wrap up.
• 50:03
  Speaker 6: So that definitely was a big thing for me. You know,
• 50:05
  Speaker 6: Elko spoke about how you put being in the lineup,
• 50:07
  Speaker 6: Elijah got to be more multiple on the safety room.
• 50:09
  Speaker 24: Do you see kind of you guys being evolving in
• 50:11
  Speaker 24: the back end maybe when you're on the field compared
• 50:14
  Speaker 24: to early in the year?
• 50:16
  Speaker 6: It's kind of the same defense. You know, it's a
• 50:18
  Speaker 6: little different. You know, we could move Rat to Rover,
• 50:20
  Speaker 6: you know, because he's a bigger guy. He can get
• 50:21
  Speaker 6: in the box. He can do different things. But it's
• 50:23
  Speaker 6: kind of the same defense. Do you remember at what
• 50:26
  Speaker 6: point you really started relishing contact? Say that one more time.
• 50:29
  Speaker 6: Do you remember at what point in your career you
• 50:31
  Speaker 6: really started just loving the hit? Yeah, it's funny. I
• 50:33
  Speaker 6: was thinking about this last night. My freshman year of college,
• 50:38
  Speaker 6: we had an inside run period, and I was going
• 50:41
  Speaker 6: against Naquan Wright, a running back at USF back then.
• 50:45
  Speaker 6: And I know all y'all seen a hit of him
• 50:47
  Speaker 6: running at a player that played for Alabama over and
• 50:51
  Speaker 6: stuff like that. So I always had that in the
• 50:52
  Speaker 6: back of my hand, like, oh, I don't want to
• 50:53
  Speaker 6: be that guy. But one day we had an inside run,
• 50:55
  Speaker 6: and I was the safety going in. And I remember
• 50:58
  Speaker 6: I went in, and I closed my eyes, and my
• 51:00
  Speaker 6: defensive coordinator came behind me and said, you're soft, you're soft.
• 51:04
  Speaker 6: And ever since then, I didn't like that. Coming from
• 51:07
  Speaker 6: the defensive coordinator calling me soft as a safety, that
• 51:09
  Speaker 6: didn't sit well with me. So ever since then, I've
• 51:10
  Speaker 6: been putting my helmet on stuff, putting my chest on stuff.
• 51:13
  Speaker 6: So that's it. Obviously, football runs in your family.
• 51:16
  Speaker 4: What is the biggest thing they've taught you that you've implemented.
• 51:20
  Speaker 6: In your game? Yeah, probably just to stay ready. Outside
• 51:24
  Speaker 6: the X's and the O's, always stay ready and keep
• 51:26
  Speaker 6: your body right. Me being in college for my fourth
• 51:29
  Speaker 6: year now, that's crazy. Being in college four years now,
• 51:32
  Speaker 6: I dealt with a little bit of injuries. So just
• 51:34
  Speaker 6: trying to stay ready, being healthy, communication, all those big
• 51:37
  Speaker 6: things play a part. Missouri has a very productive pass.
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: What's it going to take from you guys to keep
• 51:44
  Speaker 3: that somewhat contained?
• 51:46
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we've got to put pressure on this guy. He's
• 51:48
  Speaker 6: real comfortable back there. Austin Simmons, he does a great
• 51:51
  Speaker 6: job of looking and scanning the whole field. We have
• 51:54
  Speaker 6: to get pressure on him, make him uncomfortable, get him
• 51:56
  Speaker 6: off his spot, move him around. If he just sits there...
• 51:58
  Speaker 6: pack the ball a day and look for a season
• 51:59
  Speaker 6: that's going to be a long day. So we've got
• 52:01
  Speaker 6: to put pressure. Could that pressure, could you be involved
• 52:03
  Speaker 6: in that? Oh yeah, for sure. That's something that I've
• 52:05
  Speaker 6: done in my background was put pressure on the quarterback
• 52:07
  Speaker 6: coming off the blitz. I know blitzing and stuff like that,
• 52:10
  Speaker 6: so we just got to put pressure on this kid.
• 52:12
  Speaker 23: What's maybe the biggest thing you hope the defense as
• 52:14
  Speaker 23: a whole can take from last week's game?
• 52:17
  Speaker 14: A positive result after a couple of tough weeks moving forward?
• 52:21
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, just playing together, gelling. The first couple of
• 52:25
  Speaker 6: weeks we We've seen a little bit of us playing together, but,
• 52:28
  Speaker 6: you know, last week kind of brought it all together.
• 52:29
  Speaker 6: I think a little bit helped with that, you know,
• 52:31
  Speaker 6: going on film on the last Wednesday and watching it
• 52:34
  Speaker 6: as a defense in the background. So just playing together
• 52:36
  Speaker 6: and definitely playing fast.
• 52:37
  Speaker 23: Was there a point in the game last week where
• 52:39
  Speaker 23: you really could sense that you.
• 52:40
  Speaker 6: Guys were playing together? Yeah, play three. When we caught
• 52:43
  Speaker 6: the interception, it was over after that. It kind of
• 52:45
  Speaker 6: like all the work that we put in throughout the week,
• 52:47
  Speaker 6: you know, balled in.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: And it worked.
• 52:48
  Speaker 6: So after that, just cut it loose. What went into
• 52:51
  Speaker 6: your decision to come to A & M? You know,
• 52:53
  Speaker 6: Coach Elko, you know, Coach Ish, you know, those guys
• 52:56
  Speaker 6: are really good defensive guys. You know, I had a
• 52:59
  Speaker 6: lot of schools to go to coming out of this portal. And,
• 53:01
  Speaker 6: you know, A & M, when I talked to Coach Elko,
• 53:03
  Speaker 6: he sat me down and told me that I'm going
• 53:04
  Speaker 6: to have to earn a spot. Nothing's going to be
• 53:05
  Speaker 6: given to me. And I already know the track record
• 53:08
  Speaker 6: of this defense. You know, it brought a lot of
• 53:10
  Speaker 6: safeties in the lead. You know, it was very versatile,
• 53:13
  Speaker 6: very multiple. You're going to be asked to do different things,
• 53:16
  Speaker 6: asked to cover, asked to play the deep third, asked
• 53:18
  Speaker 6: to play the hook, blitz, guard tight end. You know,
• 53:20
  Speaker 6: it's multiple, and that's, you know, kind of confidence in
• 53:22
  Speaker 6: our play.
• 53:23
  Speaker 24: Some guys might look at two established captains being there
• 53:28
  Speaker 24: already and might say, I'm.
• 53:29
  Speaker 30: Going to go somewhere where I can for sure start.
• 53:31
  Speaker 30: So why did that not deter you at all? You know,
• 53:34
  Speaker 30: this is college football, you know, today's game. You need bodies.
• 53:37
  Speaker 30: You've got to have more than, you know, two or
• 53:38
  Speaker 30: three guys that can go on and play.
• 53:40
  Speaker 6: And, you know, when they told me that those guys
• 53:41
  Speaker 6: were coming back, it made me want to come even
• 53:43
  Speaker 6: more because I knew I was the type of player
• 53:44
  Speaker 6: that was going to be in the room. So, you know,
• 53:46
  Speaker 6: having Rat, having Dawg, those guys who played in SEC games,
• 53:49
  Speaker 6: you know, It doesn't do nothing for me but pushes
• 53:51
  Speaker 6: me because, okay, I know those guys can do it.
• 53:53
  Speaker 6: I've seen them do it. Now just add me into
• 53:55
  Speaker 6: the rotation and we'll be fine. Finish this statement. Texas
• 53:58
  Speaker 6: A & M beats Missouri if. If we play fast
• 54:02
  Speaker 6: and we do what we got to do. All right.
• 54:04
  Speaker 2: Thanks, everybody.
• 54:05
