- 1:12Speaker 3: of the word, baseball coach athletic director Skip Bertman did
- 1:15Speaker 3: sadly pass away early this morning at eighty eight years old.
- 1:21Speaker 3: And someone that if you're an LSU fan, probably meant
- 1:25Speaker 3: the world to you.
- 1:26Speaker 2: I know he did for me growing up. We got
- 1:28Speaker 2: a chance to.
- 1:31Speaker 3: One of skips last year's becauselet's see, I would have
- 1:34Speaker 3: been I'd have been fourteen, so nineteen ninety nine, I
- 1:39Speaker 3: think oh one was his last year. We got a
- 1:42Speaker 3: chance to our all star team from Treeport was heading
- 1:45Speaker 3: to the state tournament and we got a chance to
- 1:47Speaker 3: take BP. You made All Stars, I did nice. Yeah,
- 1:50Speaker 3: that was athletic back in the day. Thanks, Like, do
- 1:53Speaker 3: you consider yourself an athlete?
- 1:54Speaker 2: That question you ever wish you were more? Yeah?
- 1:57Speaker 3: And we got a chance to take BP at the box,
- 2:00Speaker 3: like the old box, yeah, you know, and Skip was
- 2:02Speaker 3: out there and that was my first Like I'd gone
- 2:05Speaker 3: to Skip Burman baseball camp growing up, but like, you know,
- 2:08Speaker 3: you're a little kid, and I don't think you appreciate
- 2:10Speaker 3: you're eight, nine, ten years old, Like you don't quite appreciate.
- 2:13Speaker 2: But once you've become thirteen, fourteen years old and you.
- 2:15Speaker 3: Know the legend and you know they're winning national championships.
- 2:18Speaker 3: And I'll tell you what, he stayed out there and
- 2:21Speaker 3: just talked to our old ball coach, now our coach.
- 2:25Speaker 3: I think he was you know, he was. He was
- 2:27Speaker 3: a judge for a long time. He knew a lot
- 2:29Speaker 3: of people and that's one of the reasons we got on.
- 2:31Speaker 3: But still like he sat there and acted like he
- 2:33Speaker 3: was coaching our team, you know what I mean, Like
- 2:35Speaker 3: sat there and watch every one of us taking bats
- 2:38Speaker 3: and just very very cool. And that was like my
- 2:41Speaker 3: real first introduction to Skip Bertman. I'm like, okay, a
- 2:45Speaker 3: guy like that with like the skins on the wall
- 2:47Speaker 3: that he has all these national championships because at that
- 2:50Speaker 3: time he had already had he had four of them,
- 2:53Speaker 3: I believe because he got one in two thousand. It's
- 2:55Speaker 3: like you just sitting out here, like he's really watching
- 2:58Speaker 3: us at VP, like.
- 2:59Speaker 2: He here is I know, you know what I mean?
- 3:01Speaker 2: Guy that I did it because he loved to do it.
- 3:05Speaker 4: He loved to coach, love to coach young men and
- 3:09Speaker 4: and at that critical point in their lives when you're
- 3:12Speaker 4: growing and college kids whatever.
- 3:15Speaker 2: Like he was just a genuine person and.
- 3:19Speaker 4: Loved loved what he did, loved LSU, loved the love
- 3:22Speaker 4: the guys that he coached. And we don't need to
- 3:26Speaker 4: like give you his history. Everybody knows, but but I will.
- 3:29Speaker 4: You know, he gets the shoes. In nineteen eighty four,
- 3:31Speaker 4: eighteen seasons as a head coach, five national championships, what
- 3:36Speaker 4: I think eleven times, College World Series, Yeah, SEC champions
- 3:40Speaker 4: like seven times.
- 3:40Speaker 2: At least he was SEC Coach of the Year seven times. Yeah,
- 3:44Speaker 2: it seems hard to do. It seems tough record. Most
- 3:47Speaker 2: people don't even coach for record.
- 3:49Speaker 3: He had eight hundred and seventy wins to only three
- 3:53Speaker 3: hundred and thirty losses.
- 3:55Speaker 5: That's unreal.
- 3:56Speaker 6: Like I said, not just LSU baseball impacted college baseball whole.
- 4:00Speaker 3: No doubt impacted college changed what it was like where
- 4:04Speaker 3: it was kind of like, yeah, it was a little
- 4:06Speaker 3: bit of a like it was regional, like you had
- 4:09Speaker 3: some teams in California. You had a couple of teams
- 4:12Speaker 3: like you know, Wichita State.
- 4:13Speaker 2: Was really good.
- 4:15Speaker 3: Yeah, Miami USC had runs, but it was like very regional.
- 4:19Speaker 3: Like he's like started the movement of it becoming like
- 4:22Speaker 3: a really big deal nationally.
- 4:23Speaker 4: Yeah, like just let's just take the baseball out of
- 4:27Speaker 4: it as well. He was the athletic director here and
- 4:31Speaker 4: hired Nick Saban, who changed college athletics and is still
- 4:36Speaker 4: changing college athletics today. Now, of course Saber would have
- 4:39Speaker 4: you know, had a job of course, but like Skip
- 4:43Speaker 4: was one.
- 4:43Speaker 2: That brought him to l s U. Like that was
- 4:45Speaker 2: influential for everybody.
- 4:46Speaker 4: And then he hired Less Miles and he hires Pulmonary
- 4:49Speaker 4: and like just what a impact that he had and
- 4:54Speaker 4: has had and continues to have and will continue to
- 4:57Speaker 4: have on LSU athletics but nas college athletics as well.
- 5:01Speaker 2: So an absolute legend.
- 5:03Speaker 6: Yeah, But even when Jake was saying like how he
- 5:06Speaker 6: spent the entire end of the practice talking with y'all
- 5:09Speaker 6: and everything, like he was always super gracious with his time,
- 5:13Speaker 6: even up to this past.
- 5:15Speaker 5: Season, like he's always been like that.
- 5:18Speaker 6: And he will sit there and he'll talk to anybody,
- 5:20Speaker 6: and he'll be, like I said, very gracious with his time,
- 5:23Speaker 6: and he'll have like a genuine conversation with you. It
- 5:25Speaker 6: doesn't matter who you are.
- 5:27Speaker 2: I ond percent agree.
- 5:28Speaker 7: With Yeah, And he sits with the He said he
- 5:30Speaker 7: would sit with the fans during the baseball day, like
- 5:32Speaker 7: he could have every suite in Alec Bollocks if he
- 5:34Speaker 7: wanted it.
- 5:35Speaker 2: But he sits there, people come up to, he shakes
- 5:37Speaker 2: his hands. Awesome.
- 5:38Speaker 4: There's been a lot of great tributes in the chat

- 6:00Speaker 4: it's also a day and I hope everybody does this,
- 6:02Speaker 4: and I hope all the shows do it and everybody else.
- 6:04Speaker 4: I hope it's a celebration, you know, celebration of what
- 6:06Speaker 4: he of, who he is, what he has meant and
- 6:10Speaker 4: will mean to all the all the kids that he coached,
- 6:14Speaker 4: all the fans, LSU Athletics and just LSU and Louisiana.
- 6:17Speaker 4: So what a celebration of life that is for him.
- 6:20Speaker 4: But it is still sad, and it's still fresh and

- 6:43Speaker 3: So throughout the day here on one O four five,
- 6:45Speaker 3: you're certainly going to hear the legend that was Skip Bertman.
- 6:49Speaker 3: You think he was impressed when I went to Skip
- 6:50Speaker 3: Burtman baseball camp at eight nine years old with my
- 6:53Speaker 3: sports goggles.
- 6:54Speaker 2: Probably, I mean, how could you not?
- 6:56Speaker 5: He was like, this guy takes vision seriously.
- 6:59Speaker 2: Because the know I couldn't put in contacts.
- 7:01Speaker 3: You.
- 7:01Speaker 2: I think I was like ten when star wearing contacts.
- 7:03Speaker 3: I went, like the baseball camp with the horse Grant
- 7:06Speaker 3: sports goggles is going to play across the street one day.
- 7:17Speaker 3: If my mom, I think she is listening, Mom, can
- 7:20Speaker 3: you please find that picture of me at Skip Burtman
- 7:23Speaker 3: Baseball camp with my sports coggles on.
- 7:26Speaker 2: I think.
- 7:28Speaker 3: I think the world needs to see that. There's one
- 7:31Speaker 3: picture out there.
- 7:35Speaker 5: I got a Joe Deane hired Nick Saban.
- 7:39Speaker 4: I know, I didn't want to correct well, so I
- 7:42Speaker 4: actually thought that, But then I read an article.
- 7:43Speaker 3: I was reading article this morning. It said that it
- 7:45Speaker 3: was got in two thousands. But I do think he
- 7:51Speaker 3: was a big part of like the conversation.
- 7:54Speaker 4: And I didn't think it was one hundreds of true.
- 7:56Speaker 4: But I read it this morning. I was like, but
- 7:57Speaker 4: I questioned myself this morning when I was reading it.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Then I saw articles say it and I was like, oh,
- 8:02Speaker 4: well yeah, sorry, sorry.
- 8:03Speaker 3: I mean, look, you know, we'll go back like at
- 8:06Speaker 3: the end, you know, we're just trying to express.
- 8:10Speaker 2: Yea, they kind of I think at the end, Yeah, come.
- 8:13Speaker 5: On, hey, we don't need a fact check a fact check.
- 8:16Speaker 2: We're just spreading love around here. Yeah.
- 8:19Speaker 3: I will say Skip was always recruiting because that time
- 8:21Speaker 3: I'm telling y'all when we went to BP at the Box,
- 8:26Speaker 3: John David Booty played on my team, and John David
- 8:29Speaker 3: played quarterback. USC won two Rose Bowls. It's a really
- 8:32Speaker 3: good baseball player. And I remember he threw like throwing
- 8:34Speaker 3: like you know, bullpens whatever. Yeah, John David like fourteen
- 8:38Speaker 3: was throwing like mid eighties.
- 8:39Speaker 5: That's crazy, you know.
- 8:40Speaker 2: Like, I mean he had a football field as well.
- 8:43Speaker 3: Man, I rememberad threw one and he young fella. Yeah.
- 8:51Speaker 3: I'm not saying that he you know, recruited illegally. I'm
- 8:53Speaker 3: just saying he was impressed by what John David could do.
- 8:58Speaker 3: You didn't say that to me.
- 8:59Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 9:00Speaker 4: Hey, who that k with the swimming god goes on
- 9:06Speaker 4: an editorial right now?
- 9:08Speaker 2: Is your shirt swimmer? Wait?
- 9:13Speaker 5: I went to text you all this yesterday.
- 9:14Speaker 3: That's a red flag if you are right, red flag
- 9:18Speaker 3: a noseholder.
- 9:19Speaker 6: Okay, so you know how we we call people mouth breathers.
- 9:22Speaker 5: Now we got shirt wearer, noseholder.
- 9:27Speaker 6: I saw somebody on Twitter yesterday Chris and this to me,
- 9:31Speaker 6: somebody called Chris a sun Dodger, a Sun Dodger, sun dodger.
- 9:38Speaker 5: That's good.
- 9:41Speaker 2: That it's that kind of telling someone to go touch
- 9:44Speaker 2: that's another way to say it.
- 9:46Speaker 4: I like that shirt swimmer to me, is like one
- 9:48Speaker 4: of my favorites of all time. But we should just
- 9:51Speaker 4: call someone Tom Brady. Now we we obliterated Tom here
- 9:55Speaker 4: at the station.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Who would be the number one candidate to be a
- 9:58Speaker 2: shirt swimmer, Chris Marler. Yeah, it's gotta be.
- 10:00Speaker 6: I feel bad for how fast I said that.
- 10:09Speaker 5: Mmm, me, you, I mean Taylor's super pale.
- 10:14Speaker 7: Maybe him, I'm from LP we apparently wears a little lot.
- 10:18Speaker 2: It seems pretty modest. Yeah, he does, he does.
- 10:28Speaker 3: But I think if he got in the pool, the
- 10:29Speaker 3: shirts coming off, like he's keeping the shirt on at
- 10:32Speaker 3: the beach, you know, on the sand.
- 10:35Speaker 2: Shirts on for whom I mean?
- 10:36Speaker 7: I agree because it seems like the type of guy
- 10:38Speaker 7: he's gonna stay in the pool for a while, He's
- 10:40Speaker 7: gonna he's gonna crack cold beer.
- 10:42Speaker 5: This might be worse. Marler wears water shoes to wall
- 10:48Speaker 5: like the.
- 10:48Speaker 2: Like with the toe like the foot glove thing.
- 10:53Speaker 7: We were we were Pensacola back in April, me Victoria
- 10:56Speaker 7: winters like our last We were like, look, we need
- 10:58Speaker 7: one lasshole weekend get away.
- 11:00Speaker 2: Where gets here? And uh they had a grandpa chasing
- 11:02Speaker 2: his kids.
- 11:03Speaker 7: He had the I hope they were kids he had.
- 11:08Speaker 2: He had what I didn't confirm, you have a white
- 11:10Speaker 2: van with no windows? He uh, he had.
- 11:15Speaker 7: He had the water shoes on. His tough look because
- 11:17Speaker 7: like the kids are way faster than you know, he's running,
- 11:19Speaker 7: he's got the water shoes on. I'm like, but you
- 11:21Speaker 7: just don't look like squeeze.
- 11:23Speaker 4: I just don't know what the I don't know what
- 11:25Speaker 4: the shirt does because it vacuums to your body.
- 11:29Speaker 5: So we can still see, you still see everything.
- 11:31Speaker 2: Yeah, I just can't see. Yeah. True.
- 11:34Speaker 4: The only time of swimming with his shirt is acceptable
- 11:36Speaker 4: is if you are on a beach vacation or something
- 11:40Speaker 4: and you have got burnt and roasted in burn. But
- 11:45Speaker 4: you don't get like the surfing shirt that's got the SPFS.
- 11:48Speaker 2: In it, you're not wearing. You're not wearing a J
- 11:50Speaker 2: Crew cotton shirt. Jumping in with your T shirt.
- 11:56Speaker 3: It started to reminding me of stuff I don't know,
- 12:00Speaker 3: you know, as the kids say, stuff that gives you
- 12:02Speaker 3: the ick, speaking of like the stuff that people are wearing.
- 12:06Speaker 3: We were at Bill's camp and Josh Allen's personality is
- 12:09Speaker 3: way different, that's all. He was like, he's got a jokes.
- 12:14Speaker 3: It was really really good and they had a couple
- 12:17Speaker 3: of their young guys and they were like in a
- 12:18Speaker 3: group of like six and they all had like their
- 12:20Speaker 3: college stuff on. Still they will buy, hey, guys, it's
- 12:24Speaker 3: okay to graduate their college stuff. And he's like, hey,
- 12:29Speaker 3: it's gonna be a little bit colder tomorrow. Might want
- 12:31Speaker 3: to bring the letterman jacket out. I was like that,
- 12:35Speaker 3: and he just said it like in passing. I'm like, okay,
- 12:37Speaker 3: that was that was something I would say. It's a
- 12:38Speaker 3: really good chirp there.
- 12:41Speaker 4: I found my letterman jacket to the day clean it out.
- 12:45Speaker 4: No high school letterman.
- 12:46Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't have enough patches. I'm a little embarrassed.
- 12:51Speaker 2: They didn't have audible mention all districts. I don't think.
- 12:53Speaker 4: So you don't really order your senior patches. I don't think,
- 12:56Speaker 4: do you. I never did, ye, I don't.
- 12:59Speaker 2: I didn't have let him.
- 13:00Speaker 4: Oh Eric, you didn't. You didn't letter had lettered bring it?
- 13:04Speaker 4: Bring it Monday. You had a letter sweater.
- 13:07Speaker 2: I don't know what, like, maybe I did. I don't know.
- 13:09Speaker 5: I actually just saw my parents' garage, but I was
- 13:12Speaker 5: just home. They just have it in the garage, just chilling.
- 13:15Speaker 2: If I have one in my mom, it's not even
- 13:16Speaker 2: climate controlled.
- 13:17Speaker 5: No, I don't care about my leatherman.
- 13:19Speaker 3: I know where my l Shu Letterman is nice in
- 13:22Speaker 3: the back of the closet, a little dust on it.
- 13:24Speaker 4: Oh yeah, bro, I've worn that thing one time. It
- 13:26Speaker 4: was it was to a costume party. Were you teen Wolf?
- 13:31Speaker 4: Said it was an eighties party, and so I dressed
- 13:33Speaker 4: up like it wasn't teenwolf, but it was just like
- 13:35Speaker 4: the stereotypical jock from the eighties movies with jeans.
- 13:39Speaker 3: I've worn mine, I think twice, but one was like
- 13:43Speaker 3: twenty eighteen. It was like a cold football game, and
- 13:49Speaker 3: I remember like, because like the actual current players started
- 13:52Speaker 3: wearing theirs again, I'm like t Bob and warn his
- 13:54Speaker 3: I think, And I was like.
- 13:55Speaker 2: You know what, that'd be cool wearing my letterman jacket.
- 13:59Speaker 3: And I did it because I saw Austin Moro doing it,
- 14:00Speaker 3: and I'm like, man, it also looks green, that Letterman jacket.
- 14:03Speaker 2: It's crazy. It didn't look the same on me as
- 14:04Speaker 2: it did.
- 14:05Speaker 1: Fun.
- 14:06Speaker 2: I don't know what happened got lost in translation. There's
- 14:08Speaker 2: so much.
- 14:09Speaker 3: Yeah, it's probably like the one time I've worn mine.
- 14:12Speaker 3: It's a nice looking jacket and.
- 14:15Speaker 2: I feel like and correct me if I'm wrong here.
- 14:17Speaker 3: I feel like we have you know, you and I
- 14:19Speaker 3: have enough skins on the wall where it's not it's
- 14:22Speaker 3: not completely douchey.
- 14:24Speaker 2: No, if you don't worried, I'd be like, yeah, no, like.
- 14:27Speaker 3: We're not gonna wear it every game, but like if
- 14:29Speaker 3: you want to, like the twenty year reunion for our
- 14:32Speaker 3: championship team. You know, if like it was a cold
- 14:34Speaker 3: weather game and you wore I wouldn't think anything of it.
- 14:37Speaker 4: No, but like that's the one time, one time, one time.
- 14:38Speaker 4: I'm only somebody like me every five or L s U.
- 14:42Speaker 7: Like if I went back to my high school in
- 14:45Speaker 7: November for a football game and I wore my high
- 14:47Speaker 7: school letterman jacket, that's.
- 14:48Speaker 3: Douchey, yeah, Or if like the trophy getter, well, and
- 14:51Speaker 3: y'all know who I'm talking about, Like anytime L she
- 14:53Speaker 3: went a trophy in the first kid.
- 14:54Speaker 4: I mean, college is different because difference when you were
- 14:57Speaker 4: in a high school letter jacket had a high school
- 14:59Speaker 4: game then us wearing an L Shue at LUET just
- 15:02Speaker 4: a bigger accomplishment.
- 15:03Speaker 7: Like there's there's not as many people that played college
- 15:05Speaker 7: football leagues a lot of people play high school football.
- 15:07Speaker 7: Youre going to show back up and fill on it
- 15:08Speaker 7: to stand about the chain link.
- 15:10Speaker 2: Fence, Like, what are you? That's fair? Yeah? Like what's
- 15:13Speaker 2: what's the point. There's not as many patches. Why don't
- 15:21Speaker 2: they do patches in college? I don't know.
- 15:23Speaker 3: That'd be kind of quick four years start at holder
- 15:26Speaker 3: holder if you had like the all SEC patch, but
- 15:30Speaker 3: like you know, it was classy though, like in purple
- 15:32Speaker 3: and goal.
- 15:32Speaker 2: Oh and yeah, an SEC patch for being all SEC.
- 15:36Speaker 2: That'd be pretty cool. Bring back the letter jackets. I'm
- 15:40Speaker 2: trying to you said you.
- 15:42Speaker 4: Didn't even have one. I wouldn't even be bringing it
- 15:44Speaker 4: back in L s U though, have an L s
- 15:47Speaker 4: U one, I think you know. Every Like in fashion,
- 15:50Speaker 4: things always come full circle. Yeah, Like, don't ever throw
- 15:53Speaker 4: things away because in twenty years they gonna be back, right,
- 15:57Speaker 4: letter jackets they need to find their way back to you.
- 16:00Speaker 2: I'm trying, But cool ones? Did we get OTB? Letter
- 16:03Speaker 2: jackets don't tip me with a good time? So if
- 16:07Speaker 2: we get to wear them three times with the weather.
- 16:09Speaker 6: Here, I don't know about a letterman, but what if
- 16:12Speaker 6: we did o TV like starter er.
- 16:14Speaker 4: Jackets, Yeah, that'd be sick and then we had some
- 16:19Speaker 4: merche we sold it made a little profit.
- 16:21Speaker 2: No, we've tried to do that.
- 16:22Speaker 3: We've tried to do that like a thousand times, and
- 16:25Speaker 3: nobody wants to do it for us, buddy.
- 16:28Speaker 2: People would people always ask like, if we have.
- 16:30Speaker 6: Any we have someone that website like the Guarantee one,
- 16:36Speaker 6: do we make profit off it?
- 16:37Speaker 2: No? No, no, that was a joke. I'm just a businessman.
- 16:43Speaker 5: We should and like sell it on my highest website.

- 19:41Speaker 3: I'm gonna stand up for my teammate, mister Matthew Clayton Flynn,
- 19:44Speaker 3: because he read an article that misled him this morning
- 19:47Speaker 3: and it is not on him, but it's on somebody
- 19:50Speaker 3: we know.
- 19:50Speaker 2: Very well, very well. It is very well. We're not
- 19:52Speaker 2: gonna say it, we're not.
- 19:53Speaker 6: Call anybody out, m but you were reading something verbatim verbatim.
- 20:01Speaker 4: So, I mean, that's the first time I've ever gotten
- 20:03Speaker 4: any fact anything wrong since I.
- 20:06Speaker 5: Know you've never like you usually do your due diligence.
- 20:09Speaker 2: I feel like you knew this. You were just raising awareness. Yeah,
- 20:13Speaker 2: I sure did. I sure did. I'll go ahead say it.
- 20:18Speaker 2: Hunt put it on the website.
- 20:22Speaker 3: Come on, I'm not gonna have my guy out here
- 20:25Speaker 3: in the desert looking for a drink of water.
- 20:27Speaker 2: You read it on the website, yep.
- 20:29Speaker 4: And fairness, Hunt did have to write it for really
- 20:31Speaker 4: early and wake up very early for that one.
- 20:34Speaker 5: I know, I got it.
- 20:35Speaker 6: Well, I'm like in a group chat and there was
- 20:38Speaker 6: a text from Hunt very early, like way earlier in
- 20:40Speaker 6: the morning than usual, and I was like, oh no,
- 20:43Speaker 6: And then I saw it and I was like, oh,
- 20:46Speaker 6: there's some peace.
- 20:50Speaker 4: Probably should have known that one, though, I mean, actually no.
- 20:53Speaker 4: I was like, I was a sophomore in high school.
- 20:55Speaker 4: You were a balor fan. I was in Texas. I
- 20:57Speaker 4: was a sophomore high school. Didn't really know yeh, so
- 21:00Speaker 4: I'll beg you. And I was like, this guy knows,
- 21:03Speaker 4: so you thought.
- 21:05Speaker 2: I thought, oh, now you got a question.
- 21:10Speaker 4: Everything I got seriously, I got a question, and I
- 21:13Speaker 4: usually do because I'm not sheep.
- 21:14Speaker 2: I usually just question everything. I'm not that time.
- 21:18Speaker 3: All right, I do need to lean on y'all for
- 21:20Speaker 3: something though, Because I have been out, I have not
- 21:24Speaker 3: had an opportunity and you know, the chance to really
- 21:27Speaker 3: sit down and check out LSU training camp.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Okay, because we neither has the media. We've been moving.
- 21:35Speaker 3: We've been moving and grooving there going okay, so okay, Well,
- 21:39Speaker 3: but you've been around probably hearing the buzz, you know what.
- 21:45Speaker 6: I feel like I've been hearing a lot about and
- 21:49Speaker 6: it's not and maybe it could just be generic coach
- 21:52Speaker 6: and players speak that they're doing, but the wide receiver
- 21:55Speaker 6: room has has been talked about in terms of like
- 22:00Speaker 6: everybody in that room is really good.
- 22:01Speaker 5: Like they asked DJ Pickett yesterday.
- 22:03Speaker 6: And again this could just be them just giving a
- 22:06Speaker 6: whatever answer, but they asked Lane and DJ Pickett and
- 22:09Speaker 6: they both were like, yeah, they're all good.
- 22:12Speaker 2: M Yeah, we talked maybe not like a one.
- 22:16Speaker 6: Guy with They asked like they asked, is there anybody
- 22:19Speaker 6: that's standing out to you? Anybody that you like hate
- 22:22Speaker 6: to go up against? A DJ Pickett And he was like,
- 22:24Speaker 6: all of them all Yeah, there's nobody that's like standing out.
- 22:27Speaker 5: Yeah, all seventeen of them.
- 22:29Speaker 7: How many times have we mentioned it? Like no one
- 22:31Speaker 7: thousand yard receiver for him a year ago? But yeah,
- 22:33Speaker 7: five guys with at least four hundred Jake, Me and
- 22:37Speaker 7: Matt talked about this.
- 22:38Speaker 3: Uh.
- 22:39Speaker 7: I guess it was early this week about like who
- 22:42Speaker 7: the top three were, and I had to go actually
- 22:44Speaker 7: had to go do the practice report, uh because it's
- 22:46Speaker 7: goning to some appendic surgery on Saturday. And it was
- 22:49Speaker 7: Malik Elsie was the wide receiver, three behind Jace Brown
- 22:52Speaker 7: and Jackson Harris. But dude, this week you go out there,
- 22:55Speaker 7: you see the clips that LSU is putting out. Philip
- 22:57Speaker 7: Wright's making a move and Philip Wright's a guy that
- 23:00Speaker 7: had a lot of talent coming out of desterra Hand.
- 23:02Speaker 7: You guys know, this destra Hand been real good to
- 23:04Speaker 7: l O Su over the years. It's been awesome. Like
- 23:07Speaker 7: Sam Levit's throwing the ball well the receivers, like I know.
- 23:10Speaker 2: We did you hear about the conspiracy? Have you heard
- 23:13Speaker 2: about it?
- 23:16Speaker 5: The narrative, the narrative that we're starting.
- 23:19Speaker 2: Are we starting it?
- 23:22Speaker 5: You are starting this narrative?
- 23:23Speaker 2: Do you have that you have that conspiracy theory.
- 23:26Speaker 5: I was not prepared for those.
- 23:28Speaker 4: Well, there's only one guy that he consistently throws in
- 23:31Speaker 4: complete passes to on Aaron Patten go all right, Jase
- 23:36Speaker 4: Brown and they it's I think, is it confirmed or
- 23:40Speaker 4: not that they hate each other.
- 23:42Speaker 2: I don't know. Yesterday we confirmed it.
- 23:47Speaker 4: Conspiracy is confirmed.
- 23:50Speaker 5: That Jace Brown and Sam Levitt don't like you.
- 23:52Speaker 4: You know, Okay, so we're it's it's a little bit
- 23:55Speaker 4: of there's nothing to do for for media, right, it's
- 24:00Speaker 4: ten minutes that they go and they watch the dumbest
- 24:03Speaker 4: like the individual drills. They get nothing out of it,
- 24:05Speaker 4: right right, they're watching like pursuit drill and pat and
- 24:09Speaker 4: go so and it's in It stinks they should get
- 24:11Speaker 4: a little bit more time. But I understand, I understand
- 24:13Speaker 4: both sides of it on this. But like, of course,
- 24:16Speaker 4: the only thing we want something, we gotta have some news.
- 24:18Speaker 4: So they chart every we chart every single throw and
- 24:21Speaker 4: route because that's all you have to like look at
- 24:24Speaker 4: and you want to see these as in action. And
- 24:26Speaker 4: it's just but it's just funny because it's like incomplete
- 24:29Speaker 4: incoplete incomplete like for Pat and ghost stuff and so
- 24:32Speaker 4: I'm reading it and just kind of like going hah orly,
- 24:34Speaker 4: you know, just whatever you want news. But every single
- 24:37Speaker 4: day there's like one or two incompletions, and it's always
- 24:41Speaker 4: the Jay's brown. It's probably because they're each other more,
- 24:46Speaker 4: of course, but we're starting the narrative because it's fun.
- 24:49Speaker 2: That is.
- 24:50Speaker 4: I don't know, do they not get along with each
- 24:52Speaker 4: other off the field? Chemistry is not there. They had
- 24:56Speaker 4: any cold pops together.
- 24:58Speaker 7: In all serious this though, if you do want comptem
- 25:00Speaker 7: to quote unquote keep an eye on I don't know
- 25:02Speaker 7: how much you're gonna be able to keep an eye
- 25:04Speaker 7: on it. It's right tackle. So they've they've had a
- 25:06Speaker 7: little bit of a little bit of a rotation.
- 25:08Speaker 2: They're like, what's that look like? Then?
- 25:10Speaker 7: So I mean Weston Davis odds on favorite to get.
- 25:13Speaker 7: But just think about the bodies. Like Hunt reported that
- 25:15Speaker 7: Williams satter White was running it right tackle the other
- 25:17Speaker 7: he came in to be your backup center from Tennessee.
- 25:20Speaker 7: They moved him out there. I mean, Sean Tompkins, you
- 25:22Speaker 7: still got him from Baylor. Darren Stray comes over from Kentucky.
- 25:25Speaker 7: That's an SEC guy. Devin Harper could play guard or tackle.
- 25:28Speaker 7: Bryceton Martinez, who I think was a great addition in
- 25:32Speaker 7: the high school ranks.
- 25:32Speaker 2: He's there, but well, you just you got five or
- 25:34Speaker 2: six guys.
- 25:35Speaker 7: So I think that's good because whoever earns that spot
- 25:38Speaker 7: at right tackle, which most people predicted, it's probably Weston Davis.
- 25:42Speaker 7: You'll know that he earned it because there's a lot
- 25:44Speaker 7: of talent there. I mean, there's a there's six guys,
- 25:46Speaker 7: because think about it. Going into the spring, it was, oh,
- 25:48Speaker 7: who's gonna be your left guard? Who's gonna be your
- 25:50Speaker 7: right tackle? Boat Bortolan has turned into a media darling
- 25:53Speaker 7: since the spring. I mean, honestly, outside of Jordan Seeden,
- 25:55Speaker 7: is there an offensive lineman that's talked about more the
- 25:58Speaker 7: Boat Bordelon right now. Like Seeden met with the Meat
- 26:00Speaker 7: yesterday and he was asked about Borderlann because I mean,
- 26:03Speaker 7: everybody's asked about Borderlon now and he literally called uh
- 26:07Speaker 7: Bo Bordelawn the perfect left a guard for this team.
- 26:11Speaker 2: He said, he's at.
- 26:12Speaker 7: Eighteen in my eyes, and you guys know what I'm
- 26:14Speaker 7: talking about in terms of his leadership on this team.
- 26:16Speaker 7: Like that's that's straight from Jordan seed and a guy
- 26:18Speaker 7: who plays the next to him every day. So it
- 26:20Speaker 7: looks like that spot's solidified, Like right tackle maybe the
- 26:24Speaker 7: only spot.
- 26:24Speaker 4: And I mean even then, there's a lot of competition.
- 26:31Speaker 4: Offensive line's got to improve and they will. They're gonna
- 26:34Speaker 4: be much improved this year. Yeah, last year was bomb squad. Yeah,
- 26:39Speaker 4: I think some of that was with scheme, No come
- 26:43Speaker 4: on most of it. I would say the running stuff
- 26:46Speaker 4: for sure, Like you you have seen. You could have
- 26:49Speaker 4: gone across the country and seeing twenty teams less talented
- 26:55Speaker 4: playing much better, way, way better than LSU's offensive line
- 26:59Speaker 4: last year. And that this scheme that is coaching, that
- 27:02Speaker 4: is putting them in bad positions, in position to not
- 27:05Speaker 4: be successful. That's why you make the That's why you
- 27:09Speaker 4: make the change and pay a lot of money to
- 27:10Speaker 4: make that change. So I'm excited about watching the offensive
- 27:12Speaker 4: line work. I know there's questions and there's we wanted
- 27:15Speaker 4: to be good, and we always like recency bias and
- 27:19Speaker 4: like we're a little scar tissue from last last year.
- 27:22Speaker 4: But I think it's going to be a well improved squad.
- 27:25Speaker 4: So I'm excited to watch somewhere, excited to I mean,
- 27:27Speaker 4: I can't wait for how many days away are we?
- 27:30Speaker 7: Now we are twenty three, You actually go into the
- 27:36Speaker 7: first game, can be.
- 27:39Speaker 2: Hot, that could be a day off, but I think
- 27:41Speaker 2: it's twenty three, be pretty hot that day. Twenty two
- 27:44Speaker 2: dam twenty two days. Yeah, that's what I'm mean. I'm
- 27:47Speaker 2: bet twenty two guys smarter tailor obviously don't report misinformation.
- 27:52Speaker 5: Seriously, Sorry, we don't do that here.
- 27:54Speaker 2: I got it from told me, yeah, he's twenty three.
- 27:58Speaker 2: This morning, you would.
- 28:00Speaker 5: I told his log was going to go to Juco
- 28:03Speaker 5: Togi was.
- 28:04Speaker 2: Gonna go, uh, Matt's at eighty twenty. You know what?
- 28:10Speaker 5: Else? I hear good stuff about what's up the defensive line.
- 28:18Speaker 3: I am so excited for, like defensive tackles that are good.
- 28:24Speaker 2: Absolutely, I'm for the football players on our team. But
- 28:26Speaker 2: I really am y'all that like last year, a.
- 28:30Speaker 5: Good staff, staff coaches coach O back.
- 28:34Speaker 7: But but shouldn't that give you more confidence because like
- 28:36Speaker 7: Baker actually did a pretty good job with not a
- 28:39Speaker 7: ton to work with a year ago.
- 28:41Speaker 2: Dude, he's got four freshmen that are going to play
- 28:43Speaker 2: a lot. Yeah no, I mean you look, yeah, you
- 28:45Speaker 2: had Kyle Williams out there with work. God damn good job.
- 28:51Speaker 3: Yeah, and you're seeing like a guy that was, you know,
- 28:55Speaker 3: his starter is like the fifth defensive tackle right now.
- 29:00Speaker 2: Kind of gives you an.
- 29:00Speaker 3: Idea of where they were last year compared to where
- 29:04Speaker 3: they're at right now.
- 29:05Speaker 5: They were gonna use all thirty receivers.
- 29:07Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, we're gonna have twenty two that I
- 29:10Speaker 4: can have over six hundred yards.
- 29:13Speaker 2: They have got a lot they have. I've got.
- 29:17Speaker 5: Going to just be airing it out.
- 29:18Speaker 7: I got thirteen thousand yards back Jake, it was it
- 29:22Speaker 7: was five over six hundred yards, and then Winston Watkins
- 29:26Speaker 7: was like, damn there at four hundred.
- 29:27Speaker 2: He was their six guys. And then else she didn't
- 29:30Speaker 2: have a single one.
- 29:31Speaker 6: In the comments, they said, it's twenty three days. L
- 29:33Speaker 6: She recently had to move the season opener from the
- 29:35Speaker 6: fifth to the sixth.
- 29:37Speaker 5: Apparently a last minute, and she came up with the
- 29:39Speaker 5: fifth was three days?
- 29:41Speaker 2: Was true? And well, well, well, um, what day?
- 29:45Speaker 3: Like I came on one day and we talked about
- 29:48Speaker 3: what city was I in?
- 29:50Speaker 2: You came on a buffalo? Yeah, in Cleveland? In Cleveland, Yeah,
- 29:56Speaker 2: I was in Yeah, I guess I was. I was
- 29:57Speaker 2: in Cleveland.
- 29:58Speaker 3: Yeah, And we talked about it and boil boy. Is
- 30:01Speaker 3: that grown since then? Like we just talked about we
- 30:04Speaker 3: just talked about like.
- 30:05Speaker 2: Him wearing it. Oh the jersey thing, Yeah that was
- 30:08Speaker 2: last Monday they announced it. Yeah, Yeah, a lot has
- 30:11Speaker 2: happened since then.
- 30:12Speaker 3: Yeah, what's crazy is I actually interviewed Jaden.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Actually no, the day of it came out later that day. Oh,
- 30:26Speaker 2: it was a nighttime article.
- 30:27Speaker 3: So I had like a fifteen minute conversation with Jadeen
- 30:30Speaker 3: and we were talking about a lot of different things.
- 30:32Speaker 3: He mentioned LSU in the conversation in Baton Rouge.
- 30:34Speaker 2: You didn't ask about the number.
- 30:36Speaker 3: Like at the time, I'm like, that has nothing to
- 30:38Speaker 3: do with Commander's camp, you know. And we were in
- 30:41Speaker 3: there with fans, commander fans. Yeah, it was like an
- 30:44Speaker 3: event that we had and it was a great conversation.
- 30:47Speaker 3: And then like all of a sudden, right after that,
- 30:49Speaker 3: I get this alert on my phone. I'm like, wait,
- 30:51Speaker 3: hold up, and you mentioned this, so like all of
- 30:54Speaker 3: that happened.
- 30:55Speaker 2: You didn't ask him literally the day that well, I
- 30:58Speaker 2: didn't think I had asked.
- 30:59Speaker 3: I didn't think it was Gonn trying to take his
- 31:00Speaker 3: Hosen trophy back that was on the table.
- 31:04Speaker 7: Also, like that's it's a copy that's l Shoes, Like
- 31:07Speaker 7: that's not really his to take back, but.
- 31:09Speaker 5: Whatever, that makes it more ridiculous.
- 31:13Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it's like that that's l Hu's copy.
- 31:16Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that's ridiculous.
- 31:18Speaker 2: Which ones more real? His real? Imagine? But I even
- 31:21Speaker 2: told him which is the one they had on stage?
- 31:23Speaker 2: Probably would I would.
- 31:24Speaker 3: Think, yeah, yeah, bizarre, bizarre is like the best way,
- 31:30Speaker 3: like this bizarre world.
- 31:32Speaker 5: It's unexpected, I feel like from Jaden. Yeah, like I guess,
- 31:37Speaker 5: I just I don't love Jaden.
- 31:39Speaker 7: Really well, I think they Okay, I think.
- 31:43Speaker 2: What you mean?
- 31:43Speaker 6: Okay, Yes, well I think I think that it is
- 31:48Speaker 6: because reportedly, now this isn't like fact check me whatever,
- 31:54Speaker 6: but it's being reported that he was one of the
- 31:58Speaker 6: ones that he personally reached out to LSU and said, hey,
- 32:01Speaker 6: I'm not okay with this.
- 32:03Speaker 3: Now.
- 32:05Speaker 5: Does that mean he has everything to do with the lawsuit?
- 32:07Speaker 6: I don't know, maybe, but I do think that some
- 32:09Speaker 6: of it is on Jaden and he saw all the
- 32:12Speaker 6: backlash he was getting and now they're trying to walk
- 32:14Speaker 6: it all back. Now they're like it was never about
- 32:16Speaker 6: the number, and it's like, no, it very clearly was
- 32:18Speaker 6: you called LSU and you said, hey, I'm not okay,
- 32:22Speaker 6: which fine, if that's how you feel, that's how you feel, and.
- 32:25Speaker 5: Is it's kind of I get, like, I understand.
- 32:29Speaker 6: Jaden feeling like it's a slap in the face that
- 32:31Speaker 6: you called and you reached out and you said I'm
- 32:33Speaker 6: not okay with this, and they did it anyway. I
- 32:35Speaker 6: understand all of that. It's the way that it's being handled.
- 32:39Speaker 6: I am like, I'm a huge Jaden Daniels fan. I
- 32:42Speaker 6: love him. But I guess that's why it's so disappointing
- 32:45Speaker 6: that this is how it's being handled because I just
- 32:48Speaker 6: I thought I felt like it was.
- 32:50Speaker 5: Unexpected from Jadeen Daniels to do so.
- 32:52Speaker 6: Now you can say it's his mom pulling the strings whatever,
- 32:54Speaker 6: but at the end of the day, he also reached
- 32:57Speaker 6: out to LSU and was like, I'm not okay with it.
- 32:59Speaker 4: Grown man, his names on it too. I think that
- 33:02Speaker 4: I think if I had a crystal ball and I
- 33:05Speaker 4: could look at be a fly on the law in
- 33:07Speaker 4: that room where they decided.
- 33:08Speaker 2: I think. So he's in training camp and Jake, you know.
- 33:10Speaker 4: Like when you're in training camp, you don't want to
- 33:13Speaker 4: talk to people on the outside. I don't care if
- 33:15Speaker 4: it's family, like, yeah, you want to you talk to
- 33:17Speaker 4: him because you love them and you want to like
- 33:19Speaker 4: proof of life, Like I'm okay, but I don't. I'm
- 33:21Speaker 4: not sitting there and having a conversation for twenty thirty
- 33:25Speaker 4: minutes with family members during training camp during not during
- 33:28Speaker 4: training camp like that. I feel like this whole thing
- 33:31Speaker 4: was it was one of these situations where he has
- 33:34Speaker 4: so many people around him that have very strong influence
- 33:39Speaker 4: on him. And look, I'm not this is not reporting,
- 33:42Speaker 4: this is speculating, right that. I think they had the
- 33:45Speaker 4: lawsuit drawn up, they had the whole plan, and they
- 33:48Speaker 4: called Jaden and said this is what we're going to do,
- 33:49Speaker 4: and he's in the middle of training camp.
- 33:51Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, okay, all right.
- 33:52Speaker 4: Yeah, Like I don't think he probably knew all the details.
- 33:56Speaker 4: He certainly didn't weigh in factor, and like the fallout.
- 34:00Speaker 7: Dude, I don't think they expected to pull it back,
- 34:03Speaker 7: which I don't know how you couldn't.
- 34:04Speaker 4: Yeah, but I think they had everything planned out and
- 34:06Speaker 4: they were just like, do you prove.
- 34:08Speaker 3: Yeah, And it feels like his camp at least thought
- 34:10Speaker 3: that a lot of people were.
- 34:12Speaker 2: Going to be on his side their side.
- 34:14Speaker 3: Yeah, and now it's like and you had it, You've
- 34:19Speaker 3: had multiple players, Like Leonard Fournette's like, hey, nobody's bigger
- 34:22Speaker 3: than LSU And he said it perfect like look when
- 34:25Speaker 3: whenever we're all dead and gone, like Ilh's still gonna
- 34:28Speaker 3: be there, right m and everybody everybody feels, I know,
- 34:32Speaker 3: we gotta take break.
- 34:32Speaker 2: Everybody see was a little bitffer about stuff like this.
- 34:34Speaker 2: I get that.
- 34:35Speaker 3: But like for me, like I love the fact that
- 34:38Speaker 3: every year somebody gets to wear the number that I wore,
- 34:41Speaker 3: like and it gets passed down and it's talked about
- 34:43Speaker 3: and I get to share that experience with that player.
- 34:46Speaker 2: Like there's on this camp toward that was just on.
- 34:48Speaker 3: I saw like five guys that were number eighteen, right,
- 34:51Speaker 3: and we get a chance to chop it up and
- 34:53Speaker 3: we've got a relationship because of it. Like I normally
- 34:55Speaker 3: wouldn't have a relationship with Lloyd Cushion Berry. He's a
- 34:58Speaker 3: lot younger than I am. See Lloyd at Bill's camp,
- 35:02Speaker 3: and now we have a relationship because like we shared the.
- 35:04Speaker 2: Same thing and it's very cool. Now.
- 35:07Speaker 3: I don't know who war fifteen, probably the backup deep snapper,
- 35:09Speaker 3: but you get a chance to have that relationship with him, Like,
- 35:12Speaker 3: I don't know, having your number retired, it's very very cool.
- 35:14Speaker 3: It's an honor, don't get me wrong. But like I'm
- 35:17Speaker 3: I'm the complete opposite side of it, where like I
- 35:19Speaker 3: love the fact that we have, you know, this relationship
- 35:22Speaker 3: because we wore this number.
- 35:23Speaker 4: Yeah, this whole thing's a mess. It looks really bad
- 35:25Speaker 4: on him, But I think there's both sides. Could have
- 35:27Speaker 4: done things.
- 35:29Speaker 2: For sure, a lot differently.
- 35:30Speaker 5: I agree with that. I think two things can be true.
- 35:33Speaker 3: Things can be true. But you put it out there yesterday,
- 35:36Speaker 3: and I agree wholeheartedly with what you said.
- 35:37Speaker 5: Yeah, Like I can't understand where Jaden is coming from.
- 35:41Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a piece of that.
- 35:43Speaker 6: But it was handled incredently, just the most team it
- 35:48Speaker 6: was handled.
- 35:48Speaker 4: He takes a MIAs like like they say, the grown
- 35:50Speaker 4: ass man. I think. I think there's influential people around
- 35:54Speaker 4: him that are making bad decisions and they influence him.
- 35:57Speaker 4: And they asked us, Yeah these people, I trust them.
- 36:00Speaker 4: Yeah for sure, that's what I believe.
