  Speaker 4: Look, it's gonna be pretty hard to top of Brian
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: Kelly eulogy.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: I disagree.
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: I think I think that the Hugh Freeze one is
• 2:45
  Speaker 6: going to be electric.
• 2:47
  Speaker 4: Well, I've been, I've been, I stayed up, I got
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: twenty five minutes.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: You've been in the lab with.
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: Smoke coming from a legal pad call them right, the
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: yellow yeah, the leg pet Yeah, here.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Is m.
• 3:07
  Speaker 5: What's you yet just start I'm thinking about like, okay,
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: so Alburt and Florida are two very very proud programs.
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: Now LSU's not in a great spot. I don't pretend
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: to act like they're in a great spot. You know,
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: very soon you're gonna get a president. Okay, we'll see
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: how that goes. After you get a president, you get
• 3:27
  Speaker 5: an athletic director, and you get a head coach. Right now,
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: you don't have any of the three all have an
• 3:31
  Speaker 5: interim tag with them. So trying not to cast too
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: many stones here, but Alburt and Florida, like we're talking
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: like four losing seasons in a row for Florida, it's
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: three of the last four. You're not there now, You're
• 3:46
  Speaker 5: not where you want to be, where you need to be,
• 3:49
  Speaker 5: where it has to be. But you know, a year ago,
• 3:53
  Speaker 5: but you get nine wins. It's not great. It's not great.
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: But you've had nine wins and we're talking about teams
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: have losing records this year. You're five and three. Not great,
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: not acceptable, can't be there, we know that. But you
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: are five and three. So in a day and age
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: where you can turn it around faster, I still do
• 4:14
  Speaker 5: have more hope than some of these places that we've
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: like when we were playing and not even that long ago.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: Auburn and Florida are standards of the SEC, just like
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: LSU was, and.
• 4:25
  Speaker 4: They will remain that way. I mean it's not that's not.
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: Saying, but they're in a worse spot if you look
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: off recent track record.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and they will. They will bounce back. And I
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: think that right when I think about Florida not being
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: good over the last three we just said three of
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: the last four years, losing record.
• 4:45
  Speaker 6: I mean last year was there a winning record? Wasn't
• 4:48
  Speaker 6: like it was eight wins?
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the Bowl wind And there's nobody that like that
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: likes the University of Florida like less than Jake and I,
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: these two guys right here at this table. But we
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: we we we really like to not like them because
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: they're a standard.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: They are part of.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: The they're part of the historically at the top, you know,
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: towards the top of the mountain of the SEC. Just
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: from a helmet, from a name, from a brand, They're
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: everything that the SEC, you know, is part of it.
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: And so I want them to be good. I want
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: them to be relevant. I want them to be dangerous
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: because I want that game. I want that l s
• 5:29
  Speaker 4: U Versus Florida game to be what it should be. Yeah,
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: I want it to be relevant and I want it
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: to be electric, and I want the intensity. I want
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: that hatred come in both directions in that stadium. I
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: want that. I want that hatred to be there, sideline
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: to sideline, and when you're not a good program, it's
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: just I mean it's still there, but it's lacking a
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: little bit. Same with Auburn, I mean, it was what
• 5:52
  Speaker 4: a fantastic right. I mean, they're still dangerous states and
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: still they can still hit on a recruiting class or
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: a couple of transfers and be a dangerous team. But
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: I think, you know, we want I think all of
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: us as SEC football fans, we should want those teams
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: to be good and we should want their program to
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: be stable, because that is why SEC is so great.
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: Because of the rivalries, because of those matchups between the
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: best of the best of the best. That is why
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: we love it. That's why kids, that's why kids sign here,
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: That's why coaches want to come here because you get
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: those matchups and those opportunities, and the fan bases are great,
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: so yeah. I like it's as much as like we
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: like to laugh that they're grave, it's we don't want
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: to be doing that because we want them to be good.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: That is just my humble opinion. But I think that
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: if you really look at it as an SEC fan,
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: you should probably feel somewhat the same, like you want
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: those big games between them.
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: This isn't even really like the whole reason to bring
• 6:53
  Speaker 5: that up is not even really to to hate on them.
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: It's really just to kind of shine light on on
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: where LSHU is because I mean, we fell down and
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: out right now. I think that's that's fair to say.
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: I think everybody it's like, like just not a great situation,
• 7:15
  Speaker 5: not a great situation. It's got to be better. But
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: the whole point in bringing that up was, you know,
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: you look at where Auburn's at right now, and they
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: move on from Hugh Freeze. Okay, so in the last
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: four seasons, there's the last four seasons for LSU. All right,
• 7:31
  Speaker 5: you're ten and four, ten and three, nine and four,
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: five and three. I said it, it's not it's not
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: good enough, right, It's not just not not ever going
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: to be something where you're okay with that okay, but
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: Auburn in their last four seasons five and seven, six
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: and seven, five and seven, four and five. So I'm saying,
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: you're still ahead of some places that are historically major
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: players in the SEC, but they're down bad right now. Now,
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: you got to you got to hit on this higher.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: You got to hit on both these hires. You have
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: to get some positive momentum. Florida in that same time
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: period six and seven, five and seven, eight and five,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: what are they overall this year three and five. The
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: whole point bring that up again is because like that's
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: they're starting over within the SEC.
• 8:29
  Speaker 6: Like no point do in Arkansas.
• 8:31
  Speaker 5: Arkansas'll be the same, But we don't consider Arkansas the
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: same as Florida and Auburn.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: In the SEC.
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: So teams that you're you know, probably competing with somewhat. Now,
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: do I think LSU's the best of those three jobs. Absolutely,
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: But you're probably competing somewhat for your next head coach.
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: I think you just have more on the table that
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: you can. I mean, cause you got two ten win
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: seasons in there. Again, we all expect better, want better,
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: need better, But you're talking about having two ten wins
• 9:00
  Speaker 5: seasons in that time period where you would have to
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: combine Auburn's two best seasons to get to ten.
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: In a four year period. Yeah, it is pretty wild
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: to sit here and say that our kids just got
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: took their costumes off and they still have a pumpkin
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: shaped bucket of candy sitting in their bedroom right now,
• 9:24
  Speaker 4: and we're already talking about four sec jobs that are open. Yeah,
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: and we just finished Halloween. We are at the beginning
• 9:33
  Speaker 4: of November, and it's pretty wild to say. It just
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: goes to show you what the expectations are.
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: And you you're going to see probably at least one
• 9:41
  Speaker 5: more Oh yeah, open up now they spread some time.
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: Hopefully they spread out weekly so we can get the
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: eulogies in.
• 9:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, they're going to have a major college firing for
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: the rest of the year every week.
• 9:56
  Speaker 6: I feel pretty confident in saying that.
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: Yep. And do you think the you think that is
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: the leash is a lot shorter because of this expanded playoff. Yes,
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: there's so many so many teams are like playoff or bust,
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: playoff or bust, which they should be.
• 10:09
  Speaker 6: Yeah, certainly, there's no question about it.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that it gets her Verge.
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: On Friday on Friday.
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: He's like, LSU football should make the college football playoff
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: every year. Now, that's incredibly tough to do. That's a
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: lofty goals, but that's in Ad just said that. He's like,
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: LSU should make the college football playoff every year. And
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: you haven't made it in the twelve team playoff, and
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: you know, the two years that it's been here, you
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: only made the four team playoff one time.
• 10:40
  Speaker 6: Like, that's got to go up. I think I think
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: I looked at it.
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: We would have made it three times in our four years,
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: or you would have made it four out of your
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: five and a four team playoff and a four team playoff.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: You would have made it four out of five. I
• 10:54
  Speaker 4: would have made it three out of four. Yeah, I'm
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: pretty sure. And that's the goal that LSU should have,
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: I mean forever. Even when we weren't making, you know,
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: the the four team playoff, there was a run that
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: we would still make most of the twelve team because
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: like there was Yeah, you lose some games, you lose
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: some strategic games, you lose Tobama, but you were still
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: at the end of the year top twelve team. Certainly, Matt,
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: if we finished eleventh, we were kind of like, I know, right,
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: I think top ten? Yeah weird, right, because LSU is
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: a top ten team. Yeah, we'll get there. We gotta
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: get a president and then they could be coming here
• 11:32
  Speaker 4: very soon this week. I still find that order a
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: little strange, which whole order of everything saying that, you know,
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: naming Verge the interim and so think not having a
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: play plan for the full time, like not having a
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: timeline for the full time said the interim hirer coach
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: and then bring in a full time potentially, I would
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: think that Verge has to be the top of the list.
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: I would think that with them saying that he has
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: the full authority to make the hire, that tells you
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: that he is by far a number one down on
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: the list. Because you don't want to bring in a coach,
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: especially a high profile coach, just like gms and.
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: Coaches in the NFL, they're going to be tied together.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: So you want to get yourself tied into like a
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Bell Belichick situation in Foxborough in New England where he
• 12:23
  Speaker 4: pretty much made the higher for GM because he technically
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: was the GM. Well, yeah, I don't know if you
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: want to get in that situation. Your head coach is
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: determining hit the athletic.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: So look, there's some things that could be short up here,
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: very shortly. You could have a president this week. You
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: can pull it interim tag off Verge, Verge. If you
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: feel right now as strong as it feels like you do,
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: that's your athletic director.
• 12:52
  Speaker 6: And then but then as a team you go and
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: you hire a head coach.
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: But then you're basically hiring a president and telling him
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: you got You're hiring Verge prays telling the president who
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: to hire.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: At that point, Look, this entire thing has been asked backwards.
• 13:09
  Speaker 5: I mean, let's not act you know what I mean like,
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: let's not act like it.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: It's not like.
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: You got right now, let me see if I can
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: pull it up. You've got Governor Brian Kemp, the governor
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: of the State of Georgia, quote tweeting Barstool Sports of
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: Governor Landry's speech talking about Scott Woodward with a quote
• 13:34
  Speaker 5: tweet this is a Kirby Smart appreciation tweet good luck,
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: and then tags Governor Landry go dogs h. So to
• 13:45
  Speaker 5: say any of this is going as it normally does
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: would be laughing.
• 13:50
  Speaker 6: Wait, you know you know what I mean that governors
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: don't usually quote.
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: Tweet, barstool and talk this to each other over college football.
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, kind of like it, though, it's find everybody's getting
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: into it.
• 14:04
  Speaker 5: I just want to get some structure, and I just
• 14:07
  Speaker 5: want to get it sooner rather than later, sooner rather
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: than later, because right now you just you have interim, interim, interim,
• 14:17
  Speaker 5: which you got to fight. You gotta keep going, you
• 14:21
  Speaker 5: got to keep marching forward. That's okay, but the plan's
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: got to get into place here pretty soon. You've got
• 14:25
  Speaker 5: a high school recruiting class that is going to be
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: I believe Tata correct me for wrong, a month from today.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, December third, right through the fifth is the early.
• 14:34
  Speaker 5: Third through the fifth, but starts a month from today,
• 14:38
  Speaker 5: from right now. And uh, I don't know if you
• 14:40
  Speaker 5: know this, but you've got some pretty big recruits in there,
• 14:43
  Speaker 5: got a couple five stars in there. You got some
• 14:45
  Speaker 5: players that are the best in their position coming out
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: of high school.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: You might want to. It still blows my mind that,
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: like most people sign then, because everybody goes in rolls early.
• 14:55
  Speaker 5: That's why you did it, not Joy, Yeah, go play yeah, soccer,
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: baseball or whatever. Your spring sport is the most fun
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: I had was playing so good high school soccer my
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: senior year.
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: My brother was my head coach.
• 15:10
  Speaker 5: Coach Saban came to watch this and we had like
• 15:12
  Speaker 5: three thousand people there. Made budget for like ten years
• 15:16
  Speaker 5: off that one game. Me and coach Saban driving.
• 15:21
  Speaker 6: Back to my house my single cab pickup truck.
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: That big deal. What the crank windows?
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: I know by this time I got Beyonce had automatic windows.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 15:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, whatever money my parents were going to spend on college,
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: they got me a new ride since I got a scholarship.
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: Oh good for you. Yeah, grets on that scholarship. Thank
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: you appreciate that. That's probably didn't think it was going
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: to happen after Rivals give you your ranking.
• 15:52
  Speaker 6: Well, they knew it would happen, but maybe not.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Like they preferred walking.
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: Maybe you know, maybe ACUSA little conference USA situation.
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: I thought a lot about this weekend, our conversation with
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: Dick Dixon on Friday morning talking about a mister Kelvin Shepard.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: I think I'm starting to like it that option. Okay,
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: well let's explore that when we come back.
• 16:22
  Speaker 5: Let's get into that, because he is certainly a name
• 16:24
  Speaker 5: that's been thrown out there we'll update you on what
• 16:27
  Speaker 5: their name.
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: We'll update you on what the latest odds are.
• 16:29
  Speaker 5: Because there was a time when there's some coaches on
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: this list that would not have even gotten to mention
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: because you felt like you had to fit in a
• 16:37

• 18:26
  Speaker 5: Why all right, welcome back in OTB here on this
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: Monday morning, Matthew. On Friday, we had Richard Dick Dixon
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: on the show and we were talking about the press
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: conference that we saw earlier in that day. Some of
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: the top candidates maybe for the LSU job. And there
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: is one that is a former teammate of all three
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: of ours, and somebody that's you know, obviously had some
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: success at the NFL level as a defensive.
• 19:00
  Speaker 6: Coordinator, albeit his first year. But you know a Tiger
• 19:04
  Speaker 6: threw and through.
• 19:05
  Speaker 5: He had the press conference there where he said, if
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: you cut him open, he would be a liger, half lion,
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: half tiger.
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: So great comment.
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: Greatkelvin Shepherd is somebody that a lot of people have
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: thrown around maybe potentially getting an opportunity to at least
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: interview for the head coaching job of the LSU Fighting Tigers.
• 19:24
  Speaker 5: Lay that out for me, Like, what what does that
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: look like if it does happen?
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: Like what would have to.
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: Be some things that he would have to surround himself
• 19:32
  Speaker 5: with to make sure that everything was taken care of?
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think I don't think that, Like you
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: and I are like in a position right now to
• 19:39
  Speaker 4: say who we want to be or who we think
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: is going to be, because nobody really knows, Like we
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: don't know, and we don't know who really is going
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: to be available and who really would want to come
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: and take the job up. We're assuming a lot of
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: people would. We were assuming that anybody would. But you know,
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: after our talk with with Richard on Friday, I just
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: got to think it about Kelvin Shepherd and kind of
• 20:01
  Speaker 4: like his you know, timeline as a player as a coach,
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: kind of the people that you know, we know him
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: very well, right because we were teammates with him. We
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: know what kind of guy he is. We know what
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: kind of dude he is. We know the kind of
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: energy that he brings, the dog that is in him,
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: and we also knows football IQ. Everybody else in the
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: world kind of got introduced to this Kelvin Shephard as
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: a coach. I don't remember how many years ago, but
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: it was on on The Hard Knock Show where they
• 20:32
  Speaker 4: had the camera inside the meeting room and he's talking
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: to his linebackers and talking to him rather aggressively and
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: talking to him like a dog, but also like having
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: compassion towards him out like being relatable to them. Like
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: it was all the coaches speak that. You watched it
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: and you're like, man, that is like as real as
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: it gets, and like the guy just gets it. He's
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: real and he knows how to communicate his message with
• 20:57
  Speaker 4: an intensity but also like and understanding. He laid out
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: the expectation to his players. He was intentional about it,
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: and it was a guy that like, you're not going
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: to talk back to and you're not going to be like,
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: no coach I saw this just it's just not that
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: kind of ore that surrounds Kelvin Sheppard now first year coordinator. Yeah,
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: but he's been doing it at the assistant level, you know,
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: for a good handful of years at a very high
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: level and doing it well what that looks like for him,
• 21:29
  Speaker 4: Like I was intrigued by it because yeah, he is
• 21:31
  Speaker 4: an NFL coach right now. So like it's this whole
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: like Wade and See situation, This fear of the unknown
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: that that current players might have when the transfer portal opens,
• 21:42
  Speaker 4: h recruits have that are signing in December. Third, have
• 21:45
  Speaker 4: you signed someone out of the NFL. There's no hesitation.
• 21:48
  Speaker 4: They can announce, Hey, I'm going to be the head
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: coach for so and SO team. I don't care if
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: it's Week ten. I'm going to coach out the rest
• 21:55
  Speaker 4: of the year. Then I'm going to go be a
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: head coach like you can let everybody know. It's not
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: like I got to hold my cards you know, close
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: to my vest and you know Lane Kiffin situation where
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: it's going to be mid January. So that part is
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: intriguing to me because there's this big scenario you could
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: play out of your head, like well, you know, I know,
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: I know Kevin Sherward gets it. He's an LSU guy,
• 22:15
  Speaker 4: Like he gets he understands like the way this thing operates,
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: he knows who verges, he knows who Frank Wilson like
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: he you know this is I'm going to coach.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: The rest out.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: Frank's going to take over right now, He's going to
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: handle the recruiting, and he's going to be you know, retained.
• 22:32
  Speaker 4: Like all that situation is intriguing to me because I
• 22:35
  Speaker 4: know the type of dude Kevin Shepard is. Now, does
• 22:39
  Speaker 4: that mean like he's my first choice? I have no idea.
• 22:41
  Speaker 4: I don't know who my first choice is. I don't
• 22:43
  Speaker 4: have a list right now.
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: That's why I like, I would love to get in
• 22:45
  Speaker 5: front of like five different people that I think can
• 22:47
  Speaker 5: do the job, but I'd want to hear them explain
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: how they would do the job and also why they
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: would want to take the job.
• 22:54
  Speaker 4: Yep, that's for sure to me, that yeah, exactly why
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: you want to take the job, what's your vision for
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: and everything.
• 23:00
  Speaker 6: I got to see some authenticity in this.
• 23:02
  Speaker 4: That's why Kelvin Shepard thing intrigues me so much, because
• 23:05
  Speaker 4: he can do that from the NFL level. He can
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: make it make it known. He can still coach out
• 23:09
  Speaker 4: his whole year and it might be a lie that
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: might go to you know, they got a team that
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: could go to the super Bowl. I think he would
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: maintain a lot of the good coaches there's all because
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of good coaches, a lot of good
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: people over in that in that building right now. I
• 23:24
  Speaker 4: just think there's a scenario that could play out that
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: would be really advantageous for LSU and create electricity with
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: the recruits, with the current the current players. I think
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: that would be a bit a huge home run from
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: that aspect. So the more I think about it and
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: talk through it, the more I like it.
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: And all right, so let me play Devil's advocate because
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: obviously we're gonna be biased in that because Kelvin was
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: our teammate. We saw him work every single day. We've
• 23:54
  Speaker 5: seen him at the NFL level.
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: We've talked to people he's coached, We've talked to people
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: that are currently on that staff that reached out to me,
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: and I didn't.
• 24:02
  Speaker 5: I didn't ask for it. They reached out to me
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: to kind of tell me how Kelvin's been.
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: We're fans of his because we're teammates, but what he's authentic.
• 24:10
  Speaker 5: Hell, you know where you stand with Shep, You know
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: you always did, you always have so okay, but let
• 24:15
  Speaker 5: me play Devil's advocate just for this. If if it happened,
• 24:21
  Speaker 5: you would get a first time head coach. You would
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: get somebody that's been in the NFL, not in college football.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: What are some of the cons of that, and also
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: what would he have to surround himself with, Like what
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: kind of is it an elite offensive staff? Is it
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: almost like Jimbo used to be with us where Jimbo
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: we used to We used to say Jimbo was the
• 24:44
  Speaker 5: head coach of the offense because coach Saban was on
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: his field, must Champ was over there. It was Jimbo
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: on our field, and that was our head coach, you know,
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: because coach Saban let him coach the offense.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Would it be that situation?
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: So the worry would be Kelvin Shepherd is a first
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: time he's been a one year coordinator. This would be
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: a first time coaching job. And like, oh, well, first
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: time coaching, this is LSU. We got all the resources
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: in the world. We can go do this. We can
• 25:12
  Speaker 4: do that. Well, if you know who Kelvin Shepherd is
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: and what he stands for, he is a first year
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: he would be a first year head coach. He has
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: been a defensive coutter. So what does that mean? You
• 25:23
  Speaker 4: probably don't have to put him a ten year contract
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: to start with. Yeah, so, and you are LSU, you
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: have all the resources to do that. So surround him
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: with as many resources that it takes to make his
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: first year.
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: As a head coach better.
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, of course he's gonna have to surround himself with
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: a with a badass offensive staff. Yeah for sure. Maybe
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: maybe I talked about it last week. A guy that
• 25:47
  Speaker 4: is in charge of game time decisions and special situations,
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: clock management, things like that that is not unheard of.
• 25:55
  Speaker 4: It might be unheard of because you know, people might
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: think that the head coach is like the end all
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: be all when it comes to clock management. But most
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: head coaches have somebody in their ears saying, we got
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: to if we don't get it here, we gotta spike it,
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: or we got to clock, we gotta clock it, we
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: got to call time out. Like there's a person that
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: is dedicated and it makes sense, right, especially if you
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: have a play calling head coach, whether it's the offense
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: or defense, like they're focused all week on the game plan. Yeah,
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: there's somebody dedicated to clock management and game management throughout
• 26:25
  Speaker 4: the game. Like it makes sense that you have one
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: person dedicated to that. So if you don't already hire
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: that person, like, there are a formulances you could be
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: even a former head coach at some level that is
• 26:36
  Speaker 4: out of the game and you want to make him
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: an ant. So if you've got a guy that you
• 26:39
  Speaker 4: know loves lsu is genuine knows how to speak to
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: a group of men, get the best out of them,
• 26:46
  Speaker 4: and you got to get that you feel that can
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: right the ship, steady the ship right now and some
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: tumultuous waters, uh, that can hold on to your good
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: people that are in that building that deserve to be there. Yeah,
• 27:01
  Speaker 4: you hold on to recruits, hold on to current players,
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: and can announce that he's coming like asap. You find
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: the other people. I don't care, and you can probably
• 27:10
  Speaker 4: get him. I'm not gonna I don't want to say
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: discount rate because that that is belittling towards him, right,
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: but like a guy that he's not And it's like
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: you don't have to get into contract negotiations like you
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: would with Elane Kiffin. You got that situation playing out.
• 27:23
  Speaker 4: I like every piece of that puzzle that we just
• 27:26
  Speaker 4: we just talked about, there's not I haven't found the
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: negative in all that now. And look, I'll say this too,
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: and he's been with Dan Campbell for a handful of years.
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, he made the Lions relevant exactly with what
• 27:41
  Speaker 4: he never done at any table.
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: Yes, and all those all those people that when he
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: had his press commerce he's like, we're gonna bite knee
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: caps and they were here on this station.
• 27:49
  Speaker 6: I was like, why do y'all hate that? But that
• 27:51
  Speaker 6: man is different.
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: That man is showing you that he's going to do
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: whatever it takes for the Detroit Lions to be relevant.
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: They had never been relevant. They have done things under
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: Dan Campbell they've never done in franchise history. And then
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: one of the oldest franchises. Okay, because the game has changed,
• 28:07
  Speaker 5: you don't have to have the things that have always
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: been there to be a successful head coach. I'm not
• 28:13
  Speaker 5: saying it can't work that way, but if you take
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: a look at how the game has changed in the
• 28:17
  Speaker 5: NFL and in college football, it's a different coach that
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: you're looking for, and regardless of what their resume says.
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: Regardless because James Franklin's got a great resume. Brian Kelly's
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: got a great resume. Dabo Sweeney right now has a
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: great resume. But the game's passed like Dabo like for
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: what he's done and how he's always done it. You
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: can't do it those ways anymore and expect to be elite.
• 28:43
  Speaker 5: You just can't. They just lost another game to Duke.
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: He just got fined ten thousand dollars for complaining about
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: the officials. Okay, it's down bad right now at that place.
• 28:53
  Speaker 5: But the resume is incredible. You can't deny the resume costs.
• 28:57
  Speaker 5: Football isn't like just resume may base anymore. You have
• 29:02
  Speaker 5: to have a connection to the players like you've never
• 29:06
  Speaker 5: had before. You've got to have a connection to the
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: recruits like you've never had before. You have to be
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: willing to sacrifice everything. Like you can't just get by
• 29:15
  Speaker 5: on talent alone anymore, because well, the talent has dispersed
• 29:19
  Speaker 5: amongst a lot of different teams.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: You don't hoard talent like you once did. You can't.
• 29:25
  Speaker 5: You can't do that anymore. Okay, so you have to coach.
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: You've got to be in the building. You have to
• 29:32
  Speaker 5: grind like you're a GA when you're the head coach. Now,
• 29:36
  Speaker 5: it has to be that type of situation, and the
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: thing is, not everybody's built for that anymore. So the
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: guys that have done it their way for twenty thirty
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: years and created an incredible resume, it's not that they're
• 29:49
  Speaker 5: bad football coaches. They're good football coaches, but the way
• 29:52
  Speaker 5: that they've always done it isn't working anymore, and they're
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: reluctant to give themselves over to the way that it
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: works now. So when you hear a name that's never
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: been a head coach, I understand that. I get why
• 30:06
  Speaker 5: you would be like, are we sure? But when the
• 30:09
  Speaker 5: game has changed as much as it has, you have
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: to take a look at the totality of the situation
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: and understand there's things now that a head coach has
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: to have that he didn't necessarily have to have before.
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: So for me, you just had the resume. You just
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: had the guy that I think we all felt like
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: was going to be a home run. You had the
• 30:31
  Speaker 5: guy that if you could go out there and hand
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: pick it five years ago, he'd have been on the
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: short list. But now you don't look for that guy
• 30:40
  Speaker 5: necessarily anymore. You got to look for something a little
• 30:43
  Speaker 5: bit different. I think some of the people were talking about,
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: like a Kelvin Shepherd is a little bit different.
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: One thing's clear, and there's one objective for this new
• 30:51
  Speaker 4: head coach, whoever it is. And we just talked about
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Kelvin Shepard, and we know he could do this. Now,
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: how he operates as a head coach who knows nobody
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: knows because he's never done it, but you could surround him.
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: You talk about LSU has all the resources do whatever.
• 31:05
  Speaker 4: Birge just said Friday's press conference that they asked him
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: about money, they have to ask him about budget. He said,
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: my job to find the best coach. Well, one objective
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: is clear, as you have to reset the standard here
• 31:21
  Speaker 4: at LSU. Back to what the standard is that we
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: all expect from a fan base, as LSU fans, as
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: former players is, as people here on this radio say,
• 31:29

• 39:28
  Speaker 7: That'd be pretty sick.

  Speaker 6: I thought, you know where I thought you were going
• 39:30
  Speaker 6: to go bloody sock.
• 39:33
  Speaker 7: Yeah, not sanitary, but yeah, I mean that that'd be cool.
• 39:36
  Speaker 5: I mean you have the bloody used memorability to be
• 39:39
  Speaker 5: watched that it's true bloody sock with if you watch it,
• 39:43
  Speaker 5: that'd be good.
• 39:44
  Speaker 8: I mean something from Pedro would be cool too, but yeah,
• 39:47
  Speaker 8: the shilling sock would be awesome.
• 39:48
  Speaker 5: Maybe the Pedro warm up jacket he had on when
• 39:51
  Speaker 5: he threw Don Zimmer that good.
• 39:54
  Speaker 7: I wonder how much that would go. Actually, bro, yeah
• 39:56
  Speaker 7: like that.
• 39:57
  Speaker 5: I have seen, uh the curse uster bat. Jack Rouchie
• 40:03

• 40:05
  Speaker 5: If you auction that bad off.
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: There's no telling what you would get.
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: I mean it's like.
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: It's been there for ever since, like it happened. Jack's
• 40:15
  Speaker 5: had it in his office.
• 40:18
  Speaker 4: What about a taxi dermid Randy Johnson exploding bird.
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: Well, there's not a lot of pieces left. Yes, you'd
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: have to really still had a little. Maybe it might
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: have been crushed.
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: This in the rock though it's not like he vaporized.
• 40:34
  Speaker 7: About the did What about the ball that hit the bird?

• 41:06
  Speaker 2: anything the borough jersey spelled let go that he wore
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: coming out of the tunnel. I think I think they'd
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: be worth a good amount because like he technically only
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: wore it for what ten minutes?
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: If they wear it in a game.
• 41:17
  Speaker 5: I remember being in a locker him trying to change

  Speaker 7: Probably that nothing Cowboys I'm talking about.
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: For you though, I'm not talking about like I'm talking
• 41:26
  Speaker 5: about like like a neck roll from Mike Allstars. Not
