  Speaker 3: much for taking some time.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Brother.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: How you doing?
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Hey, Jake, my friend, how are you doing, buddy Heath?
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: It's hot. It is Mississippi weather in August, but that's
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: kind of where we are with one hundred degree days
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: as a football you know, churns ever so closely. Now,
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: let's jump into Southern Miss. Blake Anderson, do we know
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: let's start with quarterback. We know that's important. Do we
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: know anything more on the quarterback situation? You know, as
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: we're hit mid August.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: I think it's still up for grabs. I think we
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: do know that it's between Ethan Hanton and Landry Liddy.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: We do know that. But I think the scrimmish tomorrow
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: is gonna answer a lot of questions, or maybe they'll
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: get closer to reaching a decision. I honestually don't think
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Anderson is gonna make that decision until maybe a week
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: or a little over a week before the first game.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: I think he doesn't want to name a quarterback. Wants
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: these guys to work harder. If you name somebody, maybe
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: you'd take your foot off a little bit. I don't
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: think he wants to do that, So betch quarterback can
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: be named a little before the first week. The week
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: of the game.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry, I mean to step on you there. And
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: it could be a situation where you see multiple quarterbacks
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: play Week one, right, Yeah.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: I think he may could. I think John White. I
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: think through camp, you know, Lydy and Hampton had separated
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: the slit. I think John White's the number three. But
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: you know at Southern mess there in anybody, they have
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: been known to get through many quarterbacks in one season.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: I think one year it was like thirteen no kidding,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: I think you remember that, but it's uh so, I
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: think you'll probably have all three play, especially when you've
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: got an offensive line that's new and guys that haven't
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: played together before. So you know, you're probably both of
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: them gonna play, maybe all three. But who the starter
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: is don't notice it.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: Let me ask you about the running back round. What
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: do we know about you know, the guys that's gonna
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: be back there with a quarterback.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: I think I think Briggs has done a good job
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: back there, kind of he's a returning He's a returning
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: running back from last season. So somebody that has experienced
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: been with Blake Anderson a lot. I think that with
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: him and being able to I kind of know the
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: system as well as he is, I think he has
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: deferated himself and maybe it's going to be the starter
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: coming out of the gate. Behind that, there's a bunch
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: of guys you could possibly look at look up by
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: this year, Steve Robinson, Jamarus Wilder. I mean, there's a
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: little lot the guys that are they could see some
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: time running back. So but I do think right now,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: if you look at it, I think Rugby probably the
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: guys can take the first teams apps when they have
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: the first game, they're gonna play two or three gas
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: back there. It's gonna be a rotation, he.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Tended on your radio talk to the miss Football as
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: the Eagles is getting ready for the start of the
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: twenty twenty sixth season, and of course it is Friday.
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: Glad to be here with you on your radio. All right, So,
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: you know, defensively and again with so many new guys in,
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: I know, it's just a lot of speculation at this time, right.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: I mean, you you get some notes, you you kind
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: of understand what's going on, and I say you, I'm
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: talk about everybody. This is really gonna be, even defensively,
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: one of those where you're just gonna kind of it's
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: gonna kind of unfold in front of everybody in it.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean literally, they just maybe got one guy
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: back this week because of the new ruling on defense,
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: and they did get a couple offensive linemen, so I
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: don't want to leave that out. They did a cuple
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: offensive linemen to come back. That's going to help us regards.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: But with Jamiir Lewis and then maybe matthis hay Good,
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: two guys that have played math is not as much
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: as Jamiir, But those the only guys that have hated
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: seen any time in Southern Minutes. The rest of them
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: are new and it's gonna be I think defensively, they're
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: going to be a work in progress for a while.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: A first year defensive coordinator with a team that pretty
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: much is all new haven't played together a little worse
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: than maybe the offense, because at least the offense has
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: some guys. With the defense, you're looking at two or
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: three guys that have played any snaps, and everybody else
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: in the two deep has never stepped foot on the
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: field at Southern Miss. So I mean it's just unknowns man.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: That's why this I think. Really the scrimmage tomorrow, hopefully
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: they start seeing some separation. But talking to Blake, I
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: talked to Blake the other day and ask him, you
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: know what about the separation seen? Honestly, I haven't yet.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: He has not seen a separation. He's wanted to see
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: its position. So I mean it's it may everything be
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: a week of the first game before they make a
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: decision on who started.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: And that's scrimmage tomorrow. Is that close to the public
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: or is that is that open?
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: It's closed to.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Public final momentary with Heath Hentons. We're talking Southern Mess
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: before we get to the top of the hour, Heath,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: what what would be accept that as a successful year
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: this year for Blake Anderson in year one.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: Yes, different people that have different answers. I think, you know,
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: you want to see a competitive team on the field.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: You want a team that's in games late. Maybe pick
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: up four or five wins, maybe pick up six. I'll
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: say this, Blake Anderson can get this team to a
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: ball he should be the Sun Belt Coach of the Year.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: But then again, they're in the same situation that Marshall
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: was last year. You know, Marshall, Southern Miss got a
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: lot of Marshall players and Marshall had to start over him.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: By the end of the season they played really well.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Southern Miss is in that position now because a lot
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: of Southern Miss players went with us to Memphis and
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: now their rebuilding and by the end of the season
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: they're playing like Marshall. So I think you gotta hope
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: that probably about end of the season you're playing your
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: best ball. You can upset a couple of people and
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: make a bowl if that half. And I think Blake Anderson.
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: He's doing a heck of a job. He just got
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: to use this year to build. But if you team
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: to a bowl, I see you know, coach of the
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: year is not have the question of the Sunbelt. It
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: would be a heck with job.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: Make sure to get him on Exit BGN Heath Hitting
