• 3:06
  Speaker 5: ober Boom. I don't normally take anything to fly. I
• 3:11
  Speaker 5: took a Xanax to fly and sleep as well the
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: night before and I was like, man, I have a
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: big day. I need to sleep on the plane. The
• 3:18
  Speaker 5: thing about not taking Xanax and then you finally take it,
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: it doesn't wear off. No, no, And so I take
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: this and I'm just like, I fall asleep on the
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: plane for a little bit, but I have like an
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: umbrella of confusion just on top of my head. And
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: I'm going into richest studio. I'm like, oh, so there's
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: no green there's no green room or guestro. And they're like, oh,
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: because we're running so tight, they're like just going going
• 3:40
  Speaker 5: to the studio hopping the chair like Riches's in the
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: middle of a segment.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: Oh no.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: And I and as soon as I sit down, I'm like, hey, man,
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: I'm on Xanax. I said on the microphone, just because
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: I knew wasn't gonna be completely right, or if it wasn't,
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: I need And so they make some jokes like the
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: first person ever openly admit he's on Xanax. So oh,
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: I did that segment like a half of a segment.
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: I stay for a whole other segment. I think in
• 4:04
  Speaker 5: the end, it ended up being a pretty good appearance.
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: All the guys got to come in and good to
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: see all the guys again.
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: And so we do that and Rich is awesome and
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: so leave then where do we go to the NFL?
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: No, to radio.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: Oh, then we go to the radio show because we
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: have some radio step to record and countdown step to record.

  Speaker 5: switched our flights last minute to come home. Problem switching
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: your flight last minute, dude, I was like C ninety
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: one the last. So not only that, we're already running

  Speaker 2: had to be six or four calves like big read.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: He read us in the middle reads a month reads
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: A big kid, A big kid, he's just like big
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: flew home. I was exhausted, but that was what you missed.
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: Oh man, sounds like I didn't miss much.
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: On opposite, it was crazy to seeing must there. Yeah,
• 9:34
  Speaker 5: So what did you guys talk about? I just caught
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: up what we did talk about. There was a lot
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: of stuff I can't talk about here, No, I know,
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: but not bad stuff, but just like uh you know,
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: program stuff for.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: Sure, sure, recruiting. Yeah, you talk about what he left
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: behind a little bit.
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: No, because he didn't leave anything behind. Everybody left situations
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: and what the you.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Know what it is now?
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I got you, I got you.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I know everything is. It was awesome. We had
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: a great a little run there.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: We'll be talking to Jed Fish, the head football coach
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: University of Washington just a few minutes, which would be
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: super cool. The Olympics were a plus. I mean, we
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: almost lost to Serbia. We haven't been on since then.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Basketball.
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we were down two. They had the ball forty
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: seconds left. Had they made that three, it's a whole
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: new ball game, or it's a bad ball game for us.
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: But they weren't like over ten in the second half
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: shooting threes.
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: Basketball is cool in the Olympics because it didn't matter
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: what team they're playing, like most of them playing in
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: the NBA anyway. But then you look at the French team, right,
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: and they got some ballers on there and they play.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: They don't play NBA. They don't play in D League.
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: Like they're awesome, but they don't. They're not even good
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: enough to play in the NBA.
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: I would say that most aren't, like the Serbian guys.
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: I think they had two NBA players Mgdonovic.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that was it.
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: But again, some of those guys would rather not play
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: in G League. Theyoul play, they'd rather play for their
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: the big European leagues. Well, no, European leagues are bigger,
• 10:56
  Speaker 5: they can make more money, like the French guy that
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: dunked on Lebron, but leb was trying to take a
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: charge to be fair.
• 11:03
  Speaker 6: Yeah, and I go big and six eight, yeah, but
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: thick big.
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: But he was drafted first overall by Boston.
• 11:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he played for the Celtics and like he had
• 11:13
  Speaker 6: a couple of.
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Runs where you know they'd come back, NBA would come back,
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: and they were even talking about I think he plays
• 11:18
  Speaker 5: for like man U Basketball or something, and he was like,
• 11:21
  Speaker 5: I'm not going back unless I have like a guaranteed
• 11:23
  Speaker 5: deal because I make a good living doing so those
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: European guys, they definitely get to the G League and
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: play the same four people over and over again and
• 11:33
  Speaker 5: maybe make no money, yeah, or like play European basketball.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: And like you're a god there.
• 11:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: But I watched Canada. It's like, oh wow, Like I
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: didn't know a lot of NBA guys like Canada, Canadian,
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: that's crazy.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: I only did like from the last three months, same
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: show when they were like getting the Canadian team ready
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: and it was like, Shay gilligis Alexander could he just not?
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Does he have a house in Toronto?
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: And he didn't make that right.
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: But the the France game was awesome, Yeah, and it
• 12:05
  Speaker 5: got awesome at the end, and I fully, excuse me,
• 12:10
  Speaker 5: Lebron should have been the MVP of the whole series.
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: I mean even the Serbia game, Lebron at triple double,
• 12:15
  Speaker 5: just killing me. Steph closed those games, dude, Like Lebron
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: was the MVP of the series. Lebron played point guard
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: or point forward. It was he had the keys to
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: that car the whole time, and purposefully you knew it
• 12:31
  Speaker 5: was Lebron series that the first part of the French game,
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: Steph missed like to like three three pointers and I
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: was like, oh god, because you just wanted Steph to shine.
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: This is going to be his only Olympics. And he
• 12:44
  Speaker 5: did against Serbia. He had a pretty rough go of
• 12:46
  Speaker 5: it early. Uh, and he definitely did against France. That
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: that four to three from his hip. Oh my even
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: my wife point, oh my god. Yeah, he was double
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: team like he threw it to Durant. Durant was double team.
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: Do it back to Steph, double teamed while Durant Lebron
• 13:02
  Speaker 5: were open. Again, Steph just said effort. And the rare
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: thing with that three was it could hit the rim.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Then went in a rattler. Dude, it was awesome.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: I don't think they covered, but I didn't. I don't
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: bet uh.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: I think there there was air spread fifteen fourteen or fifteen, yeah,
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: something like that. They did not cover. I think the
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: eleven was what it ended at.
• 13:21
  Speaker 5: The basketball was awesome, Yeah, it was cool. I didn't
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: watch one second in women's basketball.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: It is early.
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: If Caitlin Clark would have played. How to watch every game,
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: that's true. I don't watch every game. And they almost
• 13:31
  Speaker 5: lost at the end.
• 13:32
  Speaker 6: Did you see how Yeah? No, the buzzer beater that
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: didn't happen.
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: Nope.
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: So they played France too, and France. One of their
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: players had a buzzer beater that they hit but their toe,
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: their foot was over the line.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: No, it wasn't.
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: It was pretty clear it wasn't Brooklyn. It wasn't that close.
• 13:46
  Speaker 6: But it was still on the line and they lost
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: by one that would have tied it to go no too.
• 13:53
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and our women, they're so far ahead of where
• 13:56
  Speaker 5: international women's basketball as it shouldn't have even been an issue. Yeah,
• 14:00
  Speaker 5: where men, You're starting to see a lot of the
• 14:02
  Speaker 5: NBA guys. It was fun to watch Jokich. They lost, obviously,
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: but they played in the bronze medal game and they
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: won it.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: To watch how happy they were. He was happier with
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: his teammates that they won.
• 14:12
  Speaker 5: The bronze than he was when he won the title
• 14:14
  Speaker 5: with Denver.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like he was like top of the world. It
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: was awesome.
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: It's people.
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: I was so happy for him. Yeah, and then he
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: was at the horse race drinking a beer like with
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: a white beater shirt on.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 14:24
  Speaker 5: But yeah, that's what's up. The Olympics were awesome. Running
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: into Musk was super fun. We had some football to
• 14:32
  Speaker 5: talk about. We'll talk to Jed Fish coming up. Just
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: a few minutes.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: But why don't we take a break, Mike good on
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: that break, we'll come right back, Eddied. You watch any
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: of your Cowboys?
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, our first game, Yeah, we're own one. Yeah. Stet's
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: and Bennett Stet's and Bennett did play the whole game
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: and then and they had three PI too. We picked
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: him off three times, but he won.
• 14:57
  Speaker 5: You know, yeah, seas season it's going four, We're going like,
• 15:02
  Speaker 5: I know, do you what do you think is happening
• 15:04
  Speaker 5: with Zeke though?
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Dude? Like with Zeke?
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, like what's gonna have? What's what's his what's his
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: load going to be?
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: I think he's going to be the main load.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Is he going to be the guy? Is he getting
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: twenty five carries a game?
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah? I think he's going to be the main dude.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think we have anyone as good
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: as Zeke. I think Royce Freeman he was good for
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: a little bit.
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: But I don't even think Zeke is thirty is what's crazy? Yeah,
• 15:28
  Speaker 5: I think he might be twenty nine years. Zeke's forty
• 15:31
  Speaker 5: five in my mind, and.
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: I could be wrong. I might be wrong. Twenty nine
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: that is crazy to me.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: That's the lifespan of a running back, though, It's like
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: they they played three solid years and then they're kind
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: of like, oh do we keep them? Are they still good?
• 15:45
  Speaker 5: I don't know, I hear you, but it's always you know,
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: when they turn thirty, that's when the big down.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: He's not even thirty yet. And my final thought of
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Zeke is that when he's playing center, I know in
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: the playoffs.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: That was the last time he played with the Cowboys.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so what theys in the rams? It really was
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: nothing to see.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: Nah No, a lot of like rookies, a lot of
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: you know, the third stringers, just to see what they
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: can do.
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: Other rookie preseason debuts. Caleb Williams is a Hall of Famer.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: I'll say it, how do you do? I didn't see it?
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: Four seven ninety five yards thirteen yard run on twenty
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: snaps versus the Bills.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: He looked really good.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Caleb Williams has got a big butt.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: Like that's what That's what you saw out of his performance.
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: I like a thick quarterback.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: What's wrong with you?
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: Because Jaden Daniels does not have a thick butt.
• 16:33
  Speaker 5: It's like my pictures. If I'm gonna invest a bunch
• 16:35
  Speaker 5: of money in a pitcher. I want a thick butt, huh,
• 16:38
  Speaker 5: because they're gonna have that's where the powers coming from.
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: And these quarterbacks and Jaden Daniels runs, he's so thin.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: He's okay.
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: Kevin durantztin but he didn't have to. He doesn't have
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: Bosa coming.
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: Out of him.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: So you like Jalen Hurts, Yeah, big butt, Jalen Hurts strong,
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: Russell Wilson big butt.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Uh, Sure, but he had his time.
• 17:00
  Speaker 5: Hm.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: I mean Kyler Murray's but yeah, Kyler.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: Murray is thick.
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: Kyler Murray is small and everyone's like, oh, we were
• 17:08
  Speaker 5: Kyle Murray.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: But he's thick, like for.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: A little guy. Jayden Daniels went two for three, forty
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: five yards.
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: He threw a big one. He threw like a forty
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: two yard bomb versus the Jets. None of this stuff matters,
• 17:19
  Speaker 5: but it is kind of cool to see him for
• 17:20
  Speaker 5: the first time because Kayleb Williams did not play in
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: the Hall of Fame game.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Whenever they played that.
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: Game, Drake May two for three, nineteen yards, they just
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: he just played one series versus the Panthers. Michael Pennix
• 17:31
  Speaker 5: Junior nine for sixteen and one hundred and four yards.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: Who looked Bennix looked pretty good.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he was slinging it and.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: No chance he overtakes Kirk Cousins unless Cousins gets hurt.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: But he looks really good.
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah JJ McCarthy through a bad interception, but eleven for seventeen,
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: one hundred and eighty eight yards, two touchdowns, and then
• 17:52
  Speaker 5: bow Nick looked freaking awesome. But a lot of short
• 17:55
  Speaker 5: precisions stuff like make quick decisions, which is what he
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: did at Oregon.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: It absolutely is, and it's probably what but.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: That's what that offense does, even when Drew Brees ran
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: that offense, right, Yeah, like that's it.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Short precise occasionally.
• 18:13
  Speaker 5: I mean, Breeze wasn't known as having a cannon, No,
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: not at all. Yeah, Bone's look really good. But none
• 18:18
  Speaker 5: of this stuff matters.
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: What's crazy is Zach Wilson coming in third stream.
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: From what I've heard from my sources, and I don't
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: have a lot of sources, but like I have like
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: two sources period, and they're like, Zach Wilson's nothing, He's nothing.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: Or something.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: They're like, he's nothing and he's done, I know which
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: early on it was like is Zach Wilson even gonna start.
• 18:42
  Speaker 2: Is he going to be the starter?
• 18:43
  Speaker 6: Yeah?
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: So yeah, that's what's up.
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: How many preseason games do we have? Three? Three?
• 18:49
  Speaker 6: It used to be four, four, and then it's gonna
• 18:51
  Speaker 6: go to two.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: What do you think about the kickoff? Are you watching?
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: It's pretty interesting? Huh?
• 18:56
  Speaker 5: It feels too clunky. Still I like it because I
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: think two things. I like Jonathan Taylor wearing the skull cap.
• 19:06
  Speaker 5: I like it like, let's do safe things. Yeah, make
• 19:10
  Speaker 5: sure our players hit thirty they're not full of CTE
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: and making bad life decisions later on because the brains
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: are all messed up.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: Hard to see what team he's on though, with that thing.
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: But it's all right, I get it.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: It's no, it's not.
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: It's even bigger. It's exactly like the helmet, just bigger, bigger.
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: It's like if you go to a carnival and they.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Draw a character of you. It's like that.
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: So I liked it, and I hope more players wear them.
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: Same thing with the kickoff. It still feels a bit clunky,
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: but I do understand that this is for the greater good.
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: It's to keep guys from running forty yards full speed.
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: Slamming into each other. Right, So whatever is going to
• 19:44
  Speaker 5: keep the sport.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: It's like when quarterbacks don't get hit anymore. Yeah, do
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: you know why?
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: Because we need them in games because we've seen what happens.
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: We saw last year multiple times where it's the second
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: stringer here versus the third stringer.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: The games are terrible.
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right about that.
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: And you guys are like, oh, I know, man up man,
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: take it like a man. All good, taking it like
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: a man.
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: But I'd rather not lose ten twelve, thirteen, fourteen million
• 20:08
  Speaker 5: dollars and revenue because people aren't coming to the game
• 20:12
  Speaker 5: because it's Jed Hoyer.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: You know, that's not his person. It was his new employer, Brian.
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: Brian, I'm thinking of the Cubs. I'm thinking of the
• 20:23
  Speaker 5: Cubs general manager. So football is back. It's fun, it's awesome,
• 20:28
  Speaker 5: it's kind of back. Oh, it's back. It's back.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Baby. My son, My son had a good game. My yeah,
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: he has game. He almost had to pick. He's playing
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: with varsity, which is so cool. Well, he so what
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: they do at his age, he's fifth grade, but they
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: let him play with the sixth graders, and the sixth
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: graders is varsity. So for them, they have their little
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: JV team the game or whatever that they play with,
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: but sometimes they sprinkle in the fifth graders to play
• 20:50
  Speaker 3: on the sixth grade team. And he's played probably about
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: like six or seven snaps with him, which is fun
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: for you. Oh, it's so proud of him.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, do you worry every time or you just pumped
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: every time?
• 21:00
  Speaker 8: No?
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: I don't worry.
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: Is mom worried every time?
• 21:02
  Speaker 8: No? Oh?
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: Cool?
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: Now we're not worried because he's just he loves it
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: so much that like if he if he did get hurt,
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: which he has not get hurt knock on wood, but
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: if he has like any kind of injury, I think
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: he'll probably second guests like playing again. But he hasn't.
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: He's had really good protection. He's like he knows how
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: to hit right, and he plays defense really so he's
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: not the one getting hit as much. So I think
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: he's kind of got a good grip on it. But
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: if he does get hurt, I feel like he will say,
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: like maybe I'll not play anymore. So we're waiting for
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: that to happen.
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: Or you'll find out that he really really loves it.
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm scared of that too. He might could be
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: out of one of those. He might.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: Yeh, that's cool. Reade watching it footboard.
• 21:41
  Speaker 7: Uh No, I just saw some highlights. Like I saw
• 21:43
  Speaker 7: the thing with the cap on it, and I was like,
• 21:46
  Speaker 7: what in.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: The world is that? Have you not seen them practice
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: with those on?
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: Uh?
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: It's weird looking when you first see it, But again
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: I don't. Did you see the Colts one specifically?
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: No, No, I guess it.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Look it's the helmet.
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: I'll just see the practice ones, so it doesn't look
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: all bubbly, and the logos on it literally looks like
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: but again, it's no more ridiculous.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: And I say it ridiculous in a way of like
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: I understand why I did it.
• 22:08
  Speaker 5: Steve Tasker back in the day, who played special teams
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: in Buffalo, had some head issues, so we wore this
• 22:12
  Speaker 5: big protective helmet. It's like double layered and it's a
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: doesn't look any different than that, And if everybody wears them.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: It's normal, then it's normal.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: But I saw some people like it looks weird.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: Man up, I'm like, you guys, stop saying that this
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: is dumb. Yeah, dumb, And.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: How I wonder how much it really helps the patting.
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure it helps a lot.
• 22:37
  Speaker 5: I'm sure it helps some, but I mean I wonder
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: how much it really helps because I never wore one.
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: I would have.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Although I didn't get hit hard enough, it didn't matter.
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: But like, maybe we'll go somewhere riot go head on,
• 22:50
  Speaker 5: you and me head on. But like rams, well, Eddie
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: and I did this at Kansas State. We got full
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: padded out in their stadium and he's like, just hit me,
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: hit me, hit me hard. And I'm like, I don't know, man,
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: it's all romantic and stuff on TV, but I don't
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: even like doing the hitting like that hurts.
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: It hurt a little bit.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: And so I was like, all right, So we did
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: form tackle drills.
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: We're all right, though, We're all right.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: We didn't get injured.
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we got hurt different in different sports, not football, baseball.
• 23:16
  Speaker 7: Late there for quite a while.
• 23:17
  Speaker 5: Though.
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: How was your foot?
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: Oh, dude, Like I jogged yesterday. I went for a
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: jog up some hills. Didn't hurt one bit. It's awesome.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: We're back, baby, all right.
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: We are moments away from head coach Jetfish from University
• 23:29
  Speaker 5: of Washington. Now we're gonna get over to Washington head
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: football coach Jetfish. Coach Fish in his first year at
• 23:39
  Speaker 5: Washington after spending in the last three years at the
• 23:42
  Speaker 5: University of Arizona, where he helped turn that program around
• 23:45
  Speaker 5: big time. Coach Fish has spent time coaching under Bill Belichick,
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: Sean McVay, Mike Shanahan. He was college roommates with Eagles
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: GM Howie Roseman. Really excited to see what he can
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: do in his first year with Washington and he's in
• 23:57
  Speaker 5: the Big Ten. All that feels weird here he is,
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: coach Jetfish.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: How's it going, coach? Thanks for being here.
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: It's going great.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: How are you doing pretty good?
• 24:05
  Speaker 5: I mean with you with the season just like a
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: couple of weeks away. Are you like where you're just
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: itching to go to like we are or do you
• 24:14
  Speaker 5: just look forward to more time to prepare?
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: All right, year one, I'm looking for work time to prepare.
• 24:22
  Speaker 8: But usually I would say that I'm itching to go,
• 24:24
  Speaker 8: But right now, practice is what we need the most of.
• 24:28
  Speaker 5: Whenever you go into a new place, and again, congrats
• 24:31
  Speaker 5: on the success and getting that job, But how much
• 24:34
  Speaker 5: language are you actually changing and is it a slow
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: change or do you go on with a full the
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: playbook's new, and everyone has to learn all of your terminology.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: Now, Yeah, everything is brand new. Every word.
• 24:47
  Speaker 8: Our offense is all our playbook that we had at Arizona,
• 24:51
  Speaker 8: most of it similar to what we did at the RAMS,
• 24:55
  Speaker 8: and then really probably before that even and then defense
• 25:00
  Speaker 8: it's all brand new. So these kids have had to
• 25:03
  Speaker 8: learn everything brand new. We haven't carried out for one thing.
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: Are there some kids who are light years ahead athletically
• 25:11
  Speaker 5: even just straight football wise, but can't quite get the
• 25:14
  Speaker 5: concepts and so you kind of have to handle all
• 25:17
  Speaker 5: personalities different at this point.
• 25:19
  Speaker 8: Oh yeah, I mean there's a couple of things, right,
• 25:21
  Speaker 8: we were able to We had a couple of guys
• 25:24
  Speaker 8: that came over from Arizona, so they kind of knew
• 25:26
  Speaker 8: a lot of the stuff that we wanted to get accomplished,
• 25:28
  Speaker 8: and they knew the verbiage. But for the most part,
• 25:32
  Speaker 8: you know, everybody's kind of new, and there's certain guys
• 25:36
  Speaker 8: that pick things up faster. There's certain guys that just
• 25:38
  Speaker 8: know things a little bit better, and you know, it's
• 25:42
  Speaker 8: kind of unique like that. The better athletes are also
• 25:44
  Speaker 8: usually the ones that are the quicker learners when it
• 25:47
  Speaker 8: comes to offensive defensive football. So it's been fun to
• 25:52
  Speaker 8: see how quickly some of these guys have figured it out.
• 25:55
  Speaker 8: I'd say this, it's a very smart team. This team
• 25:58
  Speaker 8: knows what they're doing. This team is even though they've
• 26:01
  Speaker 8: come from all different areas and backgrounds, they are they're
• 26:04
  Speaker 8: picking up the scheme really well. Now we just got
• 26:07
  Speaker 8: to figure out a way to execute it at the.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: Level we want to do.
• 26:09
  Speaker 5: You think it's advantageous being a first year coach that
• 26:12
  Speaker 5: you have in helmet communication, like those two together are
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: going to help more because you're a first year coach
• 26:18
  Speaker 5: than maybe if it were a different time.
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I.
• 26:21
  Speaker 8: Think it's just advantageous to begin with. It's such, it's
• 26:26
  Speaker 8: it's an easier way to call a game. You know,
• 26:29
  Speaker 8: when I was when I was in Jacksonville eleven years ago,
• 26:33
  Speaker 8: we were calling the game through a coach to you know,
• 26:37
  Speaker 8: helmet communicator, and every ever since then, depending on where
• 26:42
  Speaker 8: we were at pro college, you always wish you had
• 26:45
  Speaker 8: it when you were in college football.
• 26:47
  Speaker 4: And to have it back is great.
• 26:50
  Speaker 8: And then I do think that there's some reminders and
• 26:52
  Speaker 8: tips that you can potentially give to the quarterback or
• 26:55
  Speaker 8: to the mike, linebacker or safety depending on who's wearing it,
• 27:00
  Speaker 8: that maybe just a little bit of a reminder if
• 27:02
  Speaker 8: they don't have the experience that other people have, because
• 27:06
  Speaker 8: this is year one in the offense, year one in
• 27:08
  Speaker 8: the defense, which is very different. Then let's call it
• 27:11
  Speaker 8: some other places where you're year three or you know,
• 27:14
  Speaker 8: if we were still back at the last place, it
• 27:16
  Speaker 8: would be year four in the same system.
• 27:18
  Speaker 5: Do you think with your experience in the NFL it
• 27:21
  Speaker 5: actually helps with nil in college football because now again
• 27:26
  Speaker 5: there's a financial hierarchy in college which there also was
• 27:29
  Speaker 5: in the league.
• 27:30
  Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, I've kind of said this that we've
• 27:33
  Speaker 8: gotten almost back to the old days where it was
• 27:38
  Speaker 8: everyone at eighty five scholarships and then you had to
• 27:41
  Speaker 8: figure out how you were going to get a player.
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: Other than because of the scholarship. Now everybody has money.
• 27:51
  Speaker 8: The last four years, it was depending on how much
• 27:53
  Speaker 8: money you had determined how good of a player you
• 27:55
  Speaker 8: could get. Now, with the revenue share going on next year,
• 28:00
  Speaker 8: I think the top twenty five programs are gonna be
• 28:03
  Speaker 8: able to spend pretty similar amount of money. So now
• 28:05
  Speaker 8: you're gonna have to figure out what's the next separator.
• 28:08
  Speaker 8: So we've kind of gotten ourselves back in this weird
• 28:10
  Speaker 8: world where you're going to be back to a facilities discussion,
• 28:14
  Speaker 8: You're going to be back to a kind of player
• 28:18
  Speaker 8: centric focus discussion. You're going to be back to coaches
• 28:21
  Speaker 8: and who's going to develop you the best because we're
• 28:24
  Speaker 8: all going to be sharing the same revenue here pretty soon,
• 28:27
  Speaker 8: at least the top, you know, thirty or forty teams
• 28:29
  Speaker 8: that can afford it.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: So that's gonna make.
• 28:31
  Speaker 8: It awfully interesting, and hopefully the experience we had in
• 28:35
  Speaker 8: the NFL will give us somewhat of advantage there.
• 28:39
  Speaker 5: Whenever I was living in Texas and they were like, hey,
• 28:41
  Speaker 5: move your show to Nashville and you're gonna do this
• 28:44
  Speaker 5: national show. And so I've lived in an apartment for
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: like two months and then I found like I had
• 28:48
  Speaker 5: to like study the neighborhoods and like find a house.
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: Whenever you move, do you just they just tell you
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: in an apartment? And then you find do you rent?
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: Like what's the deal?
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: It depends? I don't know if you've seen my resume.
• 29:02
  Speaker 8: I've moved a bunch, So depending on where I depending
• 29:06
  Speaker 8: on the situation in life, is kind of determined. You know,
• 29:09
  Speaker 8: have we rented or have we bought. It's certainly based
• 29:13
  Speaker 8: on where we were going and what we were doing.
• 29:16
  Speaker 8: On this case here, I got hired January fifteenth and
• 29:22
  Speaker 8: was in an airbnb across the street from campus on
• 29:25
  Speaker 8: the street with all of our players, with not our players,
• 29:27
  Speaker 8: but a bunch of college students for about four months
• 29:31
  Speaker 8: while my wife and kids were finishing out in Tucson
• 29:35
  Speaker 8: and my kids were going to school. And then we
• 29:37
  Speaker 8: bought a house and moved into our house on June first,
• 29:41
  Speaker 8: and I told Amber that on June twenty first, we
• 29:44
  Speaker 8: were going to have one.
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: Hundred people over to the house for a recruiting weekend.
• 29:47
  Speaker 4: So pressure was on quick.
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be tough to have to have. I
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: just know my wife.
• 29:53
  Speaker 5: I were like, hey, I have well ten people coming over,
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: it would not be met warm.
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: So are you totally moved in?
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: Everything good?
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: We're well, uh, you know, we are totally moved in.
• 30:04
  Speaker 8: But we started a project to to make our backyard
• 30:07
  Speaker 8: more player friendly. So we're putting a pick a ball
• 30:10
  Speaker 8: court back there, a sport court back there, and it's
• 30:13
  Speaker 8: a little miniature golf deal, and we're trying to make
• 30:16
  Speaker 8: it a place where my players want to come hang out,
• 30:20
  Speaker 8: and our recruits want to come hang out, and you know,
• 30:22
  Speaker 8: our goal is to open our house to our players
• 30:26
  Speaker 8: and become you know, their family and whether it's our
• 30:29
  Speaker 8: current roster, whether it's our recruits.
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: So we have a pretty significant.
• 30:34
  Speaker 8: Renovation going on back there, which is really putting me
• 30:37
  Speaker 8: in a great you know, a great place with my
• 30:41
  Speaker 8: wife right now.
• 30:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah, we just went to a pickleball renovation that itself
• 30:45
  Speaker 5: took four months to do and was just people all
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: it's just people. My why could be like there's people
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: here all the time because there was always something to
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: be done in the backyard.
• 30:53
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's what I'm about. That started last Monday. So
• 30:57
  Speaker 8: things are going great at the house right now.
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: A lot of travel just in general, but now you've
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: got to travel all the way across the country. And
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: I was just looking at some of you guys' games
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: because again, it used to be the Pac twelve used
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: to be. I mean, you got to like hydrate like
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: super hydrate now because I fly south. If I fly
• 31:13
  Speaker 5: southwest over two hours, I got a headache when I
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: land because I didn't drink enough water. You guys are
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: flying all over all over the freaking country. Coach Uh,
• 31:22
  Speaker 5: how do you prepare your players on time zones? I mean,
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: is there a playbook yet to that?
• 31:27
  Speaker 8: Well, you know, we it's kind of very NFL like
• 31:31
  Speaker 8: in that regard because when you're playing. I mean I
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: coached in New England and we were flying across the
• 31:38
  Speaker 8: country to play in LA. In San Francisco, we played Arizona.
• 31:41
  Speaker 8: When we were coaching LA, we flew across the country
• 31:44
  Speaker 8: to play the Giants and Dolphins. So you kind of
• 31:46
  Speaker 8: steal that playbook. And I would say that playbook is
• 31:49
  Speaker 8: one in which you you know, you leave two days early.
• 31:54
  Speaker 4: You try to get I.
• 31:55
  Speaker 8: Guess those scientists call it what circadian rhythms. Right, You've
• 31:59
  Speaker 8: got to overhydrate before you get on the plane. You've
• 32:03
  Speaker 8: got to enforce, especially young kids eighteen to twenty two, like,
• 32:08
  Speaker 8: all right, every thirty minutes, we have to have a
• 32:10
  Speaker 8: bottle of water completed. We have to make sure that
• 32:14
  Speaker 8: when we get off the plane we get enough moving around.
• 32:17
  Speaker 8: I mean we're flying to Rutgers from Seattle. That's five
• 32:21
  Speaker 8: hours and whatever. It's like an eight hour and fifteen
• 32:24
  Speaker 8: minute you know day, let's call it. With the three
• 32:27
  Speaker 8: hour time frame. In the five hour flight, we're flying
• 32:29
  Speaker 8: to state college. We're flying at Iowa City, we're flying
• 32:34
  Speaker 8: to Indianapolis. I mean, all these flights are four or
• 32:37
  Speaker 8: five hours long, if not even a little bit more
• 32:41
  Speaker 8: going to state college. So we've got to come up
• 32:43
  Speaker 8: with a plan. We think we have a decent plan.
• 32:46
  Speaker 8: I don't know, we haven't played the game yet. But
• 32:50
  Speaker 8: you know, it also depends what time you kick off. Like,
• 32:52
  Speaker 8: if we kicked off at twelve o'clock, that's nine am
• 32:55
  Speaker 8: our time. I don't know how much football we've played
• 32:58
  Speaker 8: at nine am other than training. If we kick off
• 33:01
  Speaker 8: at seven thirty at night in Seattle, that's ten thirty
• 33:05
  Speaker 8: at night for some of these East Coast teams. So
• 33:08
  Speaker 8: I think, really, we're gonna have to figure all that
• 33:10
  Speaker 8: out as we go, but we're gonna do everything we
• 33:13
  Speaker 8: can to keep these kids hydrated up and not let
• 33:17
  Speaker 8: the circumstances define how we play the game.
• 33:21
  Speaker 5: See I need to write that and overhydrate before and
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: then a bottle of water every thirty minutes because I
• 33:26
  Speaker 5: get off a plane on like my head hurts and
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: my wife's like, you idiot, this happens every time you fly.
• 33:31
  Speaker 2: Why do you not drink more water? Coach whenever you're in.
• 33:34
  Speaker 5: The NFL and you have the resume that you do
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: and you've been around so many NFL players, can you
• 33:38
  Speaker 5: pretty much spot collegiately physically who can make it in
• 33:42
  Speaker 5: the league.
• 33:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you can.
• 33:46
  Speaker 8: It's you know, it's one of those challenging things, right,
• 33:49
  Speaker 8: Like you can stand in front of your college football
• 33:51
  Speaker 8: team and you could say who's playing on sun who
• 33:54
  Speaker 8: has the dream to play on Sunday?
• 33:56
  Speaker 4: And every person in the room.
• 33:58
  Speaker 8: Is going to stand up, And then you can kind
• 34:01
  Speaker 8: of say, like, all right, who has a realistic who
• 34:06
  Speaker 8: realistically believes they're going to play on Sunday? And they
• 34:09
  Speaker 8: all keep standing. So, you know, you don't want to
• 34:12
  Speaker 8: ruin anyone's dream. You don't want to, you know, kind
• 34:15
  Speaker 8: of tell them a you know, this is probably gonna
• 34:17
  Speaker 8: be a four year run for you, but you do
• 34:20
  Speaker 8: have an idea of what it takes. You kind of
• 34:22
  Speaker 8: know what their bodies look like in the league, you
• 34:25
  Speaker 8: know what their work ethic looks like. It's very hard
• 34:28
  Speaker 8: to just change that over a course of time. So
• 34:32
  Speaker 8: we spend a lot of time talking about what what
• 34:35
  Speaker 8: these guys look like like. I show them all the
• 34:36
  Speaker 8: time pictures of NFL players and I you know, hey,
• 34:39
  Speaker 8: this is what a safety in the league looks like.
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: Do you look like this? You look like this when
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: you're working out? Do you look like this when you're running?
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: Do you look like this in the weight room?
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: Is this you?
• 34:48
  Speaker 4: Or is this what you want to be?
• 34:50
  Speaker 8: And if it's not you, are you willing to commit
• 34:53
  Speaker 8: to trying to get your body to look like that.
• 34:56
  Speaker 8: We do that with every position group constantly, and it's
• 35:00
  Speaker 8: it's not trying to make people not feel good about themselves,
• 35:03
  Speaker 8: but more it's about trying to get these kids to understand, like,
• 35:07
  Speaker 8: let's have a realistic goal and let's embrace college football.
• 35:10
  Speaker 8: I don't think there's a better sport in America than
• 35:13
  Speaker 8: college football. But if all you're doing is you're just
• 35:16
  Speaker 8: waiting for the next opportunity and you're not appreciating the moment,
• 35:20
  Speaker 8: then you're missing out on such great opportunity here. So
• 35:24
  Speaker 8: we try to encourage them to say, like, hey, yeah,
• 35:27
  Speaker 8: you might end up being an NFL player, and we're
• 35:29
  Speaker 8: going to try to do everything we can to help
• 35:30
  Speaker 8: you there. But like, let's love the fact that you know,
• 35:35
  Speaker 8: there's seventy five thousand people watching eleven people play, and
• 35:39
  Speaker 8: if it was easy, there'd be eleven people watching seventy
• 35:42
  Speaker 8: five thousand people play.
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: Thing.
• 35:44
  Speaker 5: I should look at more ripped up dudes. Then that's
• 35:47
  Speaker 5: why I need to just see pictures of things I
• 35:49
  Speaker 5: need to be a coachuration.
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: Yes, it hasn't worked for me, by the way, I'm
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: just saying for the players, it could work.
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: With your story about how you came up and coaching,
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: and you know, you were someone who knew you wanted
• 36:02
  Speaker 5: to be around great leaders so you could learn leadership.
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: I'm inserting words. You know when I read your stories
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: about you and Spurrier and the coaches that you worked under.
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: Do you look for that with people that want to
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: work for you now where maybe they don't have quite
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: the resume, but that you see something in them that
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: is extra special.
• 36:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah, you know, I think that for us, we want
• 36:26
  Speaker 8: to have people that are that aspire to succeed and
• 36:30
  Speaker 8: grow in the profession. I love people that have been
• 36:34
  Speaker 8: around great players, great coaches, great players that are inspired
• 36:38
  Speaker 8: to do certain things. I mean, we have Pete carroll
• 36:42
  Speaker 8: son on our staff, Bill Belichick's son on our staff,
• 36:44
  Speaker 8: or two coordinators. We have John Lynch's son on our
• 36:48
  Speaker 8: staff as our defensive graduate assistant, with Jack de Rio's
• 36:51
  Speaker 8: son on our staff as our offensive quality control coach
• 36:54
  Speaker 8: assistant running back coach. I do that because those guys
• 36:59
  Speaker 8: know it took their dads. They were moving around as kids,
• 37:04
  Speaker 8: they were a part of all different staffs. They heard
• 37:08
  Speaker 8: the stories from their dads when they got home from work,
• 37:12
  Speaker 8: so they know, you know what that felt like and
• 37:15
  Speaker 8: looked like. They know what when their dads were talking
• 37:17
  Speaker 8: about good coaches or bad coaches and what that meant.
• 37:20
  Speaker 8: And then we've got some other coaches on our staff
• 37:21
  Speaker 8: that either played in the league or aspired to play
• 37:24
  Speaker 8: in the league, and I want those guys to really
• 37:27
  Speaker 8: be around that group and be able to not just
• 37:30
  Speaker 8: be around Brennan and Steve, but also be around Pete
• 37:34
  Speaker 8: and Bill. And we invite those guys to our building.
• 37:38
  Speaker 8: Coach Belichick's been here all week. Coach del Rio is
• 37:41
  Speaker 8: coming tomorrow. I think he'll be here for a week.
• 37:43
  Speaker 8: Coach Carrol's been around practice a bunch. Because I want
• 37:46
  Speaker 8: our assistant coaches to be able to grab those guys
• 37:48
  Speaker 8: and be like, Hey, what do you think about this
• 37:50
  Speaker 8: or what do you think we should do here?
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: How do I grow in this profession.
• 37:54
  Speaker 8: But in the end, you know, I think you just
• 37:56
  Speaker 8: got to work, you know, every day, like somebody's working
• 37:59
  Speaker 8: twenty four hours day to take your job.
• 38:01
  Speaker 5: I feel like Coach Belichick has shown me a new
• 38:03
  Speaker 5: side of him where he's actually pretty funny. I've been
• 38:05
  Speaker 5: watching on TV a lot where you know, you get
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: the presser he would say nothing, and that was just
• 38:10
  Speaker 5: the expectation.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: But like, if you're having dinner with him, is he
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: just like cuttingly funny at times?
• 38:16
  Speaker 8: Yeah, he's got a great he's got a great personality,
• 38:19
  Speaker 8: And yeah, I think that the way he's handled the
• 38:22
  Speaker 8: media over the years is probably based on thirty something
• 38:27
  Speaker 8: years of how it went right, Like I don't know
• 38:29
  Speaker 8: what it was like in nineteen ninety four in the media, right,
• 38:33
  Speaker 8: and I think all these years have gone on that
• 38:35
  Speaker 8: he created a persona and he also created a messaging
• 38:40
  Speaker 8: that he wanted to give, which really was what we
• 38:43
  Speaker 8: do in houses in house, and it's really not that
• 38:46
  Speaker 8: important for the others to know what we're doing in house.
• 38:49
  Speaker 4: That was maybe the way he handled it.
• 38:52
  Speaker 8: But when you're with them privately, or when you're with
• 38:54
  Speaker 8: him in a different type of setting, we really enjoy him.
• 38:59
  Speaker 8: My wife and I've spent many of times out for
• 39:02
  Speaker 8: dinner and vacation, and you certainly learned so much about
• 39:06
  Speaker 8: the guy. And he's brilliant. He's brilliant outside of football.
• 39:11
  Speaker 8: He's so well read and well versed. But he's also
• 39:13
  Speaker 8: funny and really a good dude to just hang out with.
• 39:16
  Speaker 5: Is it crazy to you that you'll just be hanging
• 39:19
  Speaker 5: out with these dudes? At one point you looked at
• 39:20
  Speaker 5: as like mentor, Like you just mentioned like three or
• 39:22
  Speaker 5: four guys, and it's like they could be at your house.
• 39:25
  Speaker 5: You had Pete, Carroll Belichick, and you're like, man, they
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: also think I'm cool? Now, Like, isn't that like freaking awesome?
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: Well, it's cool. I mean, let me just say this.
• 39:33
  Speaker 8: I've never called any of them by their first name,
• 39:36
  Speaker 8: so there's still my mentors.
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: I have a really hard time not calling them coach.
• 39:41
  Speaker 8: And when you're around Coach Carroll or Coach Belichick, like,
• 39:47
  Speaker 8: you know, I don't think I just look at them,
• 39:51
  Speaker 8: you know in a way that I just I see
• 39:53
  Speaker 8: them as somebody that I've looked up to my whole career,
• 39:56
  Speaker 8: and now to be around him is pretty cool.
• 39:58
  Speaker 4: It's pretty awesome. It's cool to be running the practice.
• 40:02
  Speaker 8: But I've always said, like, when those guys are a
• 40:05
  Speaker 8: practice man, I'm the assistant head coach. I still look
• 40:08
  Speaker 8: at those guys as the head coach, whether they're just
• 40:10
  Speaker 8: sitting in the stands or watching the game, or whether
• 40:13
  Speaker 8: they're standing on the practice field talking to me or
• 40:15
  Speaker 8: one of our coaches. In the end, those guys are
• 40:19
  Speaker 8: revered and they've done some things in football that we
• 40:22
  Speaker 8: all just aspire to do.
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: Is it bad form to show up to Coach Belichick
• 40:26
  Speaker 5: and say will you signed this football?
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: Coach?
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: Like, would that be weird to just have them autograph stuff?
• 40:30
  Speaker 4: Or you get hey, can we take a quick selfie?
• 40:32
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: Like I feel like I would want to do that
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: all the time.
• 40:37
  Speaker 5: I would want all the coaches that came in, like
• 40:41
  Speaker 5: they're helping right now.
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: I would want them all to sign a ball.
• 40:43
  Speaker 5: But I so my move is, Coach, if there's somebody
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: that I'm with and I'm like a massive fan of
• 40:48
  Speaker 5: I'll have somebody come up and be.
• 40:49
  Speaker 2: Like, oh, you too should get a picture together.
• 40:51
  Speaker 5: That way, I didn't ask, so you could have someone
• 40:54
  Speaker 5: on your staff be like, hey, we're presenting coach Fish
• 40:57
  Speaker 5: with his ball, all the assistants that came in. It's
• 40:59
  Speaker 5: like Coach Carrol, Coach Belichick all on one ball, but
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: secretly you wanted it.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: And you can have that tip for free.
• 41:04
  Speaker 4: Coach that's a good tip. I like that idea.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: And then you don't have to ask.
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: You must get it all the time. People are always
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: trying to take pictures with you.
• 41:11
  Speaker 5: It happens a little bit, but sometimes also people are
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: like confused as to why other people are taking pictures
• 41:17
  Speaker 5: with me. So like someone will take a picture and
• 41:19
  Speaker 5: then someone else will walk up and be like, hey,
• 41:22
  Speaker 5: who are you? And then then when you have to
• 41:24
  Speaker 5: explain nobody, it's like they don't care because I'm not
• 41:27
  Speaker 5: famous to them.
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: You know, no question.
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: Can you go to the grocery store without people being like,
• 41:31
  Speaker 5: Coach Fish, you're our savior?
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: Uh yeah, oh yeah.
• 41:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 41:38
  Speaker 8: Every now and then we'll get a how we doing
• 41:40
  Speaker 8: coach go dogs. But there's a lot of things happening
• 41:43
  Speaker 8: in Seattle. So they are Husky fans though through and through,
• 41:47
  Speaker 8: and we have a great fan base.
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: We have a group.
• 41:50
  Speaker 8: You know, I would say that the fans here are
• 41:53
  Speaker 8: just they They've showed out to everything we've asked them
• 41:56
  Speaker 8: to do. We know we're going to sell out our games.
• 41:58
  Speaker 8: We know that sale gating on the water is going
• 42:01
  Speaker 8: to be incredible. You know, I've heard that you've made
• 42:03
  Speaker 8: it out to the West Coast a couple of times,
• 42:05
  Speaker 8: and you know, I was kind of thinking, you can
• 42:07
  Speaker 8: check out Seattle and be on the water and we'd
• 42:09
  Speaker 8: get on a boat and do this thing.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: But maybe next year we can get you out here
• 42:13
  Speaker 4: and you could see.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: It well, Coach, full transparency, all that is true. But
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: I didn't.
• 42:18
  Speaker 5: We did not come. We did not get invited in time.
• 42:20
  Speaker 5: We went out to another school, which we won't mention.
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: Not important, not important, not important at all, not into
• 42:25
  Speaker 5: a couple other schools. We went to your old school
• 42:28
  Speaker 5: as well, and they still speak of you extremely lovingly.
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: They're not even that mad at.
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: You, really, I promise you.
• 42:38
  Speaker 5: I'm telling we spent a lot of time there. Even
• 42:42
  Speaker 5: ex players do not speak ill of Coach Fish. I'm
• 42:46
  Speaker 5: telling I would just not say anything at all.
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: But you are still wait to hear wall.
• 42:51
  Speaker 8: I love those kids, and the head coach that got
• 42:54
  Speaker 8: Coach Brennan is a great a great coach and a
• 42:56
  Speaker 8: good friend.
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: So I'm excited for them. I'm excited route them on.
• 43:00
  Speaker 8: But obviously the players over there that we that we
• 43:03
  Speaker 8: recruited and we brought in there, I can't wait to
• 43:07
  Speaker 8: watch them succeed. They are fantastic kids and really a
• 43:11
  Speaker 8: special match out there in.
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: Tucson Final three questions. But I'll say this, We're next season,
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: We're coming out.
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: I love it a plus. We're gonna come. Okay, Eddie,
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: you go.
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: Ahead, Yeah, coach. I have four boys and they all
• 43:23
  Speaker 3: play sports, and I tell them, you know your your
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: body language is important. You know you have bad body language.
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: The coach is not going to think you're serious and
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: look like you're listening. Is that important to you?
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: Is?
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: But body language, bad body language, all that is that
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: important to you as a coach.
• 43:37
  Speaker 8: Fantastic coaching, Tim. I would absolutely tell my kids. I'd
• 43:41
  Speaker 8: tell my own kids that body languages, Oh, I would
• 43:45
  Speaker 8: say the most important thing when you're talking to a player,
• 43:48
  Speaker 8: how they respond. You could feel it, you could see
• 43:51
  Speaker 8: it if they get disappointed at their shoulders shot and
• 43:54
  Speaker 8: like walk confidently like I do. Just tell them you
• 43:56
  Speaker 8: want to walk on the field, and you want to
• 43:58
  Speaker 8: tip the field. You want it to look like this
• 44:00
  Speaker 8: when you're walking downhill all the time. So body language
• 44:03
  Speaker 8: is critical, great parenting right there.
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: Thank you coach.
• 44:07
  Speaker 5: As a coach, do you still get nervous.
• 44:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I get nervous or that about game day?
• 44:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, I'm like for a game, I mean I
• 44:20
  Speaker 5: don't know about I don't know what else you're up to,
• 44:21
  Speaker 5: but for games like that's what I'm talking about.
• 44:23
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I get nervous about it. We're gonna have nothing,
• 44:25
  Speaker 8: I own money. I get nervous about a lot of things.
• 44:27
  Speaker 8: But without a question on game there there's nothing more.
• 44:30
  Speaker 8: There's nothing more exhilarating. But yeah, I mean I have
• 44:34
  Speaker 8: this like I still have to call the offensive plays
• 44:38
  Speaker 8: and I always go and through this panic attack.
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: Like what if I just like freeze, I can't think
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: of a play. So yeah, we work.
• 44:45
  Speaker 8: I work very hard and we work as a staff
• 44:47
  Speaker 8: very hard to be as prepared as you could possibly be.
• 44:51
  Speaker 8: But yeah, I mean like, I mean, yeah, I get nervous,
• 44:56
  Speaker 8: and I try to do the best I can to
• 44:58
  Speaker 8: alleviate the nerve, the anxiet for our players.
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: But I try to I do take it on myself.
• 45:03
  Speaker 5: This isn't the final question, but something you just said
• 45:04
  Speaker 5: about NI own money, So I have a friend who's
• 45:07
  Speaker 5: a head football coach somewhere. I won't implement him into this,
• 45:11
  Speaker 5: but he says he spent more time on the phone
• 45:14
  Speaker 5: ever just he's just talking to people about money, like
• 45:16
  Speaker 5: he more than he ever thought he would. He is
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: a head coach of a major program, and he's like,
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: it's what I do. I dedicate a lot of time
• 45:23
  Speaker 5: to it. Very similarly, I was asked about running for
• 45:27
  Speaker 5: the governor of Arkansas where I'm from, back in the day,
• 45:30
  Speaker 5: and they were like, you're on the phone all the
• 45:31
  Speaker 5: time begging for money.
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: That's really what it is.
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: It feels like, at least until there are some changes,
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: that it's a lot of politiic and for cash right
• 45:40
  Speaker 5: now to keep up.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: Would you say that's accurate, Yeah, And.
• 45:43
  Speaker 8: I'd also say I mean it's kind of frustrating in
• 45:46
  Speaker 8: a manner that I could imagine for others that you
• 45:49
  Speaker 8: feel like every conversation you have it's always you're talking
• 45:53
  Speaker 8: to people, you're trying to get him to build a
• 45:55
  Speaker 8: relationship with you just moved to a new community, and
• 45:58
  Speaker 8: then traditionally always stews off and saying, now, if you
• 46:02
  Speaker 8: can help our program, we would really appreciate it, or
• 46:05
  Speaker 8: you know, any hell will make a huge difference in
• 46:08
  Speaker 8: the success of our program.
• 46:10
  Speaker 4: But it's every day. It's every day, it's all day.
• 46:12
  Speaker 8: It's every opportunity to send an email, to send a note,
• 46:16
  Speaker 8: to get.
• 46:17
  Speaker 5: On the phone.
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: Every break that I have is really dedicated to fundraising.
• 46:24
  Speaker 8: And it's fundraising for NIL, it's fundraising for our facility,
• 46:26
  Speaker 8: it's fundraising for our program. I think that's just the
• 46:30
  Speaker 8: nature of being a college football head coach right now,
• 46:33
  Speaker 8: and hopefully at some point it'll maybe recalibrate, But right now, yeah,
• 46:39
  Speaker 8: I would agree with your friend who's a coach that
• 46:42
  Speaker 8: a lot of our time is spent.
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: You on a fundraise.
• 46:45
  Speaker 5: All right, final question, your mount rushmore of your favorite
• 46:47
