• 0:32
  Speaker 1: secondary cornerbacks coach Tim Walton, safety's coach Tim matt Greary,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: and then a decent cross section of players. No Jermaine Matthews,
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: disappointingly no Davis Niegbunosen, but we got to talk to
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: a bunch of other guys. Caleb Downs you may have
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: heard of him, several other players of note, and you
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: got a chance to talk to Devin Sanchez, which I
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: think is probably you know Caleb Downs, Like, Okay, we've
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: seen Caleb Downs. Everyone's probably excited to hear all about
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Devin Sanchez, five star prospect, someone who you're hearing all
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: sorts of positive buzz about. You know, outside of that,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: what did you get a chance to talk to Givin Chances.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: About five star prospect? Five star interview? Okay and not
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: not like braggadocious cocky. I remember the first time I
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: ever talked to Denzel Burke walking away going wow, yeah,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: like we were talking about he's the arbiter of truth
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: o Ohio State football. But Devin is very mature and
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: covered covered a bunch of ground. But you know, like
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: talking about what's the easiest part about this, what's the
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: most difficult part about it? He's like, there's nothing easy
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: about it. You know, he may make some of this
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: stuff look easy. He's got the physical makeup, the mental
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: side of it. The hard The hardest part is the
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: competing every day. I asked him, what was the most
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: important lesson you've learned so far? He's like, everything is
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: a competition, and then he went into like when you're
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: when you're a freshman, you're just competing against freshmen, and
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: so he's like, do you talk about the first time
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: he lost a competition here, and it's like it's stuck
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: with him. And basically, when you're a freshman, you're just
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: competing with freshmen. And then they released them to the
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: rest of the team, and he got his first loss
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: against David Snigginosen and igv let him know about it,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: and it's like, I can't ever let this happen again.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: And it's fun funny. It's like you're doing so well
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: against the freshman and then they let everybody into the
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: park and you're like, this is this is the real world.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: And so that was one lesson for him, but just
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: a really really mature and confident in a good way.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Confident and that you know, you say, like I have
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: the opportunity to play. That's why I came here. But
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: not if he doesn't, if it doesn't happen, it's his fault,
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: like he's he's got the makeup for it. But if
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: it's if it doesn't happen, it's not politics or you
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: know depth, Chart's like it just wasn't it wasn't ready
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: for it. And he was asked about dealing with expectations
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: from fans and he's like, I've got David snig Binosen
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: and Jermaine Matthews in front of me. You know, at
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: the very least, those two guys are going to keep
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: people off the on the sideline, off the field, so
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: you can't let any of that get to you. But
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: really like that, there are times where like me and
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: and a couple of other reporters just like looking across
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: the way at each.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Other like yeah, yeah, and you know he's someone who
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: has you've never heard anything bad about him. He just
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: you know, you'll you'll sometimes have you know, guys who
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: come in and they're very talented, but you know they're
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a little cocky or they're a little like confident. You
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: have to be confident as a corner, especially an outside
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: corner like you. If you're not confident as outside corner,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: you get the nickname toast. That's just that's that just
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: does not working. You have an union confidence. You need
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: a short memory at that position. And you know, Caleb
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Downs was talking about him a little bit and said,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: you know, he was asked about you know, oh, Defn Sanchez,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: the five star prospect, and he kind of went like, yeah,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: Caleb Downs is also a far star prospect. You guys, like,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: as soon as you walk in this building, stars, stars
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: are not a thing any more. You're just a football
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: player and now, and you know, this is a building
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: where there's a lot of foreign five star prospect. There's
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: the majority of the team is probably foreign five star players.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: So it's just like, oh you too, congratulations, you know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: great welcome.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: And doesn't get you anywhere, right, And you.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Know, you're talking about the freshman sort of being, you know,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: with the freshmen, and all of a sudden they get
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: sort of get dumped. It's like you know, goldfish have
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: been swimming in a little tank and then all of
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: a sudden it's like, okay, you know, the ticket's dumped
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: in the pond, and it's like, well, there's bigger fish
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: in here. How about that? That's are they coming to
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: say hi? Like it's that is there's a lot of
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: guys this building who have always been the biggest, best
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: players on every team they've played. Congratulations, welcome to Ohio State.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Jeremiah Smith's right over there.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: And he talked about that, you know, the baptism by
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: fire against you like Jeremiah Smith and Mylond Graham. But
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: he also said it's like being in he told his parents,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: is like being in high school again. Where as a
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: true freshman, you started at the bottom and he's starting
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: at the bottom here and he's like, I know how
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: to work my way up. It's just a process and
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: he's working out. Just again, really impressed. And we'll have it.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: We've got it on a YouTube page. After we're done
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: with this, go check it out. Go watch that interview
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: with him, because it's it's again, it's impressive.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: I'll just say that, Yeah, he was. He's a very
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: very impressive player. Also an impressive player. Caleb Downs. Yeah,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: pretty good interview as well, very thoughtful. He's Caleb Downs
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: is someone who was the five star prospect. Started as
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: a true freshman on a Nick Saban defense at Alabama
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: that made a college football playoff, started as a true
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: sophomore in an Ohio State defense that went to the
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: national championship and won it. And now the third year
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: he's you know, he was one of the people who
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: they he was kind of looking around. He's like, there's
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: too much national championship stuff hanging up in here. He said,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: they had national championship signs in the way. Roomy goes
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys in here who didn't have
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: anything to do with that. You know, that doesn't that
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: was last year's team. Take it down, and you know,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: I think they I think they have And that's that's
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: you know, that's really it's really telling that the guy
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: who's the best guy is also the one who's like, yeah,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: we're not. You know, he was the five star, he
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: has a national championship, he was a he played the
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: most snaps on the national championship team. He's like, great,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: that was last year. This is not you know that
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: lately that awards that awards us zero points this season,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: so it doesn't matter. And you know, he is he's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: very very much still working on developing himself. He's like,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I'm working on like being a dime. Like how often
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: is he going to be the dime in the Ohio
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: State defense? Probably never, but if they need him to be,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: he's working on it because he needs to. He wants
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: to be able to be able to do that and
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: to be versatile. It's you know, isn't it a coincidence
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: how the best players also happened to always coincidentally be
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: the hardest working guys. It's it's wild. How that's how
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: that's the case. He said, he's been he's been doing
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: very limited reps this spring, and it's not injury. It's
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: just he had the most snaps on the team last year,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: so that's opened up a lot of other snaps for
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: younger guys Jalen Plaan and hard for Roker. He said
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: he was asked about, you know guys who've been impressed,
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: you know, impressive this spring. He mentioned those three guys.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: The first guy he mentioned there was Lee Roy Roker,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: which I thought was interesting. Did you did you get
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: a chance to.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Talk to time a little bit? And this is his
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: first spring because he was a June and roly laast year,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: but he did make a mark last year during fall camp,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: coming up with a bunch of interceptions. I think he
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: only played in one or two games last year, so
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: he redshirted. But last year was a learning experience because
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: you're playing catch up the entire time, and so now
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: things are slowed down for him, especially in spring when
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: it's supposed to be about learning. But he also is
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: playing more, so he'll be growing from this. And you
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: know it's also you know, all of the safeties are
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: playing the two safety spots, so it's he's no longer
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: just a free safety, which he says suits his game
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: because he can do more than just you know, be
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: a center fielder or whatever. So, yeah, it was first
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: time we've talked to him ever, I believe.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's right. And he's one of those
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: guys who we just I don't know how often we
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: talked about him last year on these shows, not very often.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: It was just kind of you came in late. He
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: was not someone like Mile and Graham who we would
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: get asked about because mileon Graham had the five star
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Petti Greenley, Roy Roker might have been a three star guy.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: But it's you know, every once in a while, you'll
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: have that guy who's like kind of the guy who's
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: sort of at the bottom of the class and the
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: recruiting rankings, and especially if you coming in the summer,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: it's just kind of like, yeah, man, we'll see you
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: next year. Well, now it's next year, and when you
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: start to hear that name from a couple different people,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: that's when it's like, all right, like that's someone to
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: really keep an eye on, especially if it's not we
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: talk about this all the time, like one of The
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: great read the tea leaves things is when you don't
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: ask how is Lee Roy Roker doing? When you ask
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: who's who you know who's been impressive, and that's the
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: first name that comes out. That's when I kind of
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: go all right, there's there's some there there. Tim Walton
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: was got a chance to talk to him one of
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: the other corners outside. He said, Aaron Scott really processing
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: game faster. He talked a lot about how guys are
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: processing the game and competitiveness. Those were kind of two
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: of the things. And when you hear him, when you
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: hear coaches talk about like the same kind of stuff,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: and you're framing a lot of these different conversations, how
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: is this guy doing, Well, he's processing the game faster. Well,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: he needs to work on processing game faster. Like that's
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: that's the kind of stuff they're looking for out of
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: these young guys. And it's like, yeah, he's fast, Yeah
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: he's a good tackler, yeah whatever. But you know, it's
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: all that kind of soft factor stuff where it's like,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: how is that you know, who's going to play at
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: wide receiver, It's like, well, how are they blocking? It's
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: like that's not the exciting stuff. But that's the stuff
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: that matters. And you know, Tim Moulton talked about the
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: fact that you're looking for guys who are competing on
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: a daily basis processing things and not only doing that,
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: you have to be able to apply things on the field,
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: and you have to be able to sustain it. You
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: can't just it can't be just like, oh, I had
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: two good days, good for me. I'm gonna know. That's
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: not how it works. You yeah, exactly, Yeah, knocking off
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: a little early this week. No, that's not how it
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: works at all. They've got to they have to be
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: able to sort of sustain that. And you know, he said,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: you know, this is when you're looking at young guys
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: like at Devin Sanchez or you know, some of the
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: other younger guys in that corner room in terms of
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: like when they're looking ahead of them, I'm like, well,
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: how am I going to get past these guys? He said,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: this is like musical chairs, Like no one cares that
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: you're young. This is competition. The competition is real. You
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: have to pick it up and go, whether you're a
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: first year guy or a third year guy. And then
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: if you're ready and you get in a game, no
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: one cares that you're a freshman. You've got to just
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: be like it can't be like, well, I'm just a freshman.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: I'm just a You know, if you're in the game,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: you're in the game, and you've got to be able
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: to and they have to be able to trust that
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: you are. Even if you are a freshman, you're gonna
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: be able to do it. Aaron Scott was someone who
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: he also said, you know, he was asked like, what's
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: his role going to be. He's like, I don't know.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: It's you know, you're still halfway through spring ball. He
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: doesn't know what his role is gonna be. But he's
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: really grown in terms of intelligence and processing. Devin Sanchez
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Tim Walton said that he's doing really well picking stuff up,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: making plays. He's really pleased with his progression, and he said,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: you know, with the most the most difficult thing for
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: young guys like that is the speed of the game
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: and formations and all the moving parts. Miles Lockhart, who
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: is now a second year player, just lost his black stripe.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: He said last year it was just like, you know,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: it was just kind of you're you're out there, just
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: like stuff is moving so fast and it's just you're
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: just kind of like, well, I'm gonna run somewhere. Like
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: it was just it it was going too faster, and
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: this year now it's it's slowed down a little bit.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: Now it's like, Okay, I understand what I was supposed
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: to be doing. And then said, ah, you lose your
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: black stripe.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: It doesn't matter how fast the player is. It matters
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: how fast the game is for them. And once it
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: starts slowing down then and and you're consistent with it
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: because I, like Brian Day said it yesterday, when you flash,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: it just means we know it's there, but if it's
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: not there consistently, then it almost doesn't. It does them
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: no good because you can't be trusted. So it's it's
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: about eliminating the flashing and being just consistent throughout and
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: being being trustworthy.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's the old Urban Meyer line. Potential just
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: means you have and done it yet. Well, flashing means
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: you've done it maybe a little bit, but you're not
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: doing it consistently enough. So yeah, that's that's one of
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: those one of those things nicol In terms of Nickel position,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I asked uh Miles Lockhart, who was working at Nickel
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: this spring. Gets all the names we've been talking about,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Lorenzo Styles, Bryce West, Miles Lockhart, Tim Wolton did say,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: and Jermaine Matthews has been in there working at Nicol
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: a little bit. He did that some last year as well.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: And you know, you've you've got guys who Boy, Tim
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Wolton's real high on Jermaine Matthews, Like I went over
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: there for that. Yeah, just you know, it's like he talked.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: He there's just certain ways that coaches talk about guys
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, yeah, you know it's coming along,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: really progressing, and it's just you ask him about Jermaine
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Matthews and it's just like, all right, I'm just gonna
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: sit back and listen to positive words come this way
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: like that. What was the with the Panasonic TV career?
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: This speaker where you're sitting on the couch and the noise,
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: you're just like the positivity just like blowing you back.
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Like every coach that we've ever talked to has loved
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: him me And that's going back. We always talk about
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: you in camp here with like Jim Knowles and Ryan
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Day working him out. But yeah, you get Tim Wall
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: and started on Jermaine Matthews, and like Jermaine Matthews, we
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: always talk about how he's just he's always smiling, he's
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: always happy. Coaches love that. But he's also really good.
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: So coaches love that just as much, if not more,
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: when you are a positive impact on the team but
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: also a positive impact on the field. And Knowles would
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: say it last year like, yeah, we don't need to
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: work him at corner. We're gonna get him some work
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: at nickel because we know he can play corner. Like
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: they know all of these things about him, and there
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: are no concerns. We talked last year, there's no concerns
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: about Cody Simon stepping in for Tommy Eickenberg. There are
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: no concerns about Jermaine Matthews stepping in for Denzelberg.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: No, not at all. Yeah, he said high football, like
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: you competitor, confident, all the all the stuff you want
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: there and your leadership sense of urgency, growth, development, I
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: mean all that kind of stuff. Davison Nigunosen he was
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: asked about, said you know where where does he have
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: to continue to grow his game? Said just he has
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: to improve at the top of the route, which is
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: basically like Okay, the receivers uting to you and then
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: he breaks, Like then what do you do just breaking
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: and don't yet? Well you're not supposed to. That's uh,
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: that's I think where that that comes from, that improvement,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: that that sought after improvement said he has to improve it.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Off Coverage has done a good better job of things
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: working and transitioning out of breaks and that kind of stuff.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: But this is you know, this is his last year
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: in college. So if you want to be getting talked
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: about in the way that Denzel Burke is and uh,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: you know that's that's the stuff you got to keep
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: working on.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and and be reach your potential, because he's got
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: considerable potential. He's long, he's tall, he's physically strong, but
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: sometimes too physical. So if you you remain physical but
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: within the bounds, then you know, you shoot up the
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: draft boards.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yep. One thing that I did like that that
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Tim Walton said. He was asked, you know, like some
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: of the questions, some of the issues he was saying about, uh,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: just some of the stuff that guys are working on
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: right now, techniques and that kind of stuff. And Tim
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: Let's said, is that correctable? And he said he life
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: is correctable if you put the work in. That's sort
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: of a paraphrase, but it's like, that's good. I like that.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I think it's good to you know, you could like
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: cross stitch that and hang it on, hang it on
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: the wall.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: They life love anything, life is correctable.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: Live, live, laugh, loove, live, live, laugh, love to correct things. Yes,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: something about yes, beach life, Yes, anything else from anyone
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: that you were talking to. No.
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I I also talked with you know, Aaron Scott a
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: little bit, but then I had to run over to
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Matt Greary. I did ask Matt Gray, like, what's the
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: key to uh say, keeping a recruit, keeping a commitment
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: for the next you know, eight months or whatever?
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: Hypothetically For instance, for those who may not have listened
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: to yesterday's This Morning Show, I got a commitment from
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: a five star safety out of Louisiana, which is not
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: an area where they've typically gotten something gotten guys. And
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: it was someone who has an older brother who's one
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: year ahead, who's on the LSU team, So you know,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: hanging on to him for the next eight months is
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: probably you know, maybe a little bit of roller coaster.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Well, and he just said, it's about about relationships and
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: keeping those relationship, building them and then keeping them. I
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: did see blam Bradford's father tweet yesterday like this thing
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: is over.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I think that tweet may have been deleted. Welcome to
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: recruiting one day, welcome not even a day. Yeah, not
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: even to day. Yeah yeah, there was I forget there
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: was an I think it might have been an LSU
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: commit like ten years ago, said one percent committed that
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: said I'm still going to be taking visits. It was
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: just kind of like, yeah, all right, that's kind of
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: how that works, and it's only gotten crazier over the
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: last ten years or so. Anything else that you had
