- 3:12it. Yeah, Saturday afternoon at the
- 3:13Hokies aren't playing, you try. Keep the best game on your big
- 3:16TV and if you only got one TV, can't do that.
- 3:20So you know, the way this thing was built.
- 3:22So, yeah, guys, we don't have like any in-depth topics.
- 3:26Today, we're going to hit a few things here and there some, some
- 3:29fun stuff we're going to lead off with sort of the big news of
- 3:34Hokie Nation on the last week and that's the trivia on
- 3:38Henderson decision. Run.
- 3:42He is now a puck. I ladies and gentlemen.
- 3:44Spoiler alert, he is committed to the Ohio State University.
- 3:51He is not a buckeye yet, that this is true.
- 3:54We have a verbal commitment to the, the Ohio State University.
- 3:59Um, Brian? Just give me your take because,
- 4:03you know, we both were following us that led up.
- 4:05What, what what was your thoughts when everything broke
- 4:07on on Friday night? Well, good old rivals.
- 4:11Mike Farrell is this one I think maybe two yeah he's out there.
- 4:16Good getting hooky nation's hopes up a little bit but you
- 4:19know I'll be I think a lot of us had felt like this was probably
- 4:24going to going to happen in terms of a big five-star
- 4:26recruit. Especially one that's ranked in
- 4:28some circles, is the number one running back in the country,
- 4:32probably going to head to one of those blue blood programs.
- 4:35You know, we had hopes of keeping him home being you know,
- 4:38Hometown favorite things like that.
- 4:40But Ultimately was not in the cards and you know, I know we've
- 4:45been talking about this a lot and if we want to start hitting
- 4:48on some of these five-star guys that don't have either Legacy
- 4:51ties to Virginia Tech or things like that, we're going to have
- 4:56to start winning some more games.
- 4:57That's just, you know, the long and short of it is true.
- 4:59I mean, I said a few weeks ago that my expectation was for for
- 5:03were 0 for 1. So just just like the feels and
- 5:10again, why I felt Felt the opportunity.
- 5:12Why we could land him is, we don't have that Elite stud in
- 5:17the backfield. No disrespect to Keshawn King of
- 5:20the guys, you know, they are right now, but you look at Ohio
- 5:25State, just what three days prior and I think me and you
- 5:28talk about it, like Evan prior committed out of Charlotte
- 5:31there. It's like, yeah, he's like the
- 5:33number five back in the country. Well, wait a sec.
- 5:35This is this is good for us, which is good for anybody that's
- 5:39in the final race for Henderson and You know, you kind of like
- 5:43the visit, it seemed like it went well, and then video
- 5:46dropped, and we weren't even in there.
- 5:48So, yeah, but you still want that rub some folks, the wrong
- 5:52way that UVA got a bench and we didn't get a mention so that I
- 5:55think that ropes will post the wrong way.
- 5:58I don't think it was meant as a personal jab.
- 6:00I think that was more kind of there's something else going on
- 6:04that may have attributed to that.
- 6:06But, you know, it is what it is. And I think some folks got
- 6:09rubbed the wrong way especially with some of the hype that was
- 6:11Is leading up to it with him, getting the, you know, kind of
- 6:13the last official with us. But, you know, he didn't even
- 6:15take an official with Ohio State.
- 6:17They still wanted it right after winning another top five in the
- 6:20country running back just a week prior.
- 6:23So yeah. And that's that's Blue Bloods
- 6:26man. I mean yeah they can sometimes
- 6:29you again, I try to be optimistic and say you look at a
- 6:33guy. Hey, you know why go somewhere
- 6:37where you're going to compete now?
- 6:38I know those guys, they believe in.
- 6:41Abilities. They have to, to be at that kind
- 6:43of level. So, you know, most of the guys,
- 6:47especially running backs. I mean, they think one big year
- 6:49is enough for them to get truth. You know, first round second
- 6:53round pick, even with the devaluing of the running back at
- 6:58the NFL level. I mean, if they show out for one
- 7:00big year, yeah, you know, that that can be enough to be one of
- 7:04those, you know, top five running back that usually still
- 7:07gets pulled in the first or second round.
- 7:09So yeah, we used to Have that remember a guy named Ron
- 7:12Williams and David wolf in years ago?
- 7:17Yeah. It's been a long time since we
- 7:22have landed, you know, David and both Ryan were, they were
- 7:28borderline five-star, guys. They were like one, top 100
- 7:31players they were Elite. So, but, yeah, I mean.
- 7:34Well, we also talked about the fact that the last will be did
- 7:39land wasn't from a State hotbed either.
- 7:42It wasn't an RV. A guy was an anova guy wasn't a
- 7:45757 guy. He was from being from
- 7:47Southside. Virginia has damn well, I mean
- 7:50it's true, we've had some success with them will do.
- 7:53I mean between the Edmonds and and David they're obviously the
- 7:57the Pittsylvania County has been good to us.
- 7:59Recently, very true. Now kind of continuing with the
- 8:04Henderson thing. And Justin Hamilton has been on
- 8:08fire on Twitter this week police The last week, man, he's
- 8:13definitely setting the tone and saying this is what we are about
- 8:17this is and if and if, and if you're not about it, that's
- 8:20fine, move on but if you are, make it be known because we're
- 8:25ready to do some big things. Exactly.
- 8:27And I'm going to really got to love that you do.
- 8:30And, I mean, and he's kind of and it's not just to the
- 8:32Virginia guy that's to everybody.
- 8:34But that first one that went out last week, takes loyalty to stay
- 8:37home, and takes guts to stay home and leaving has been a
- 8:39trend. It takes a legend.
- 8:41We'll stay in the program on his back.
- 8:43Create his own, definition of a trend that was like, whoa,
- 8:48that's a shot across the bow, definitely shot across the bow.
- 8:52Well, the question is, that was a couple days prior to the
- 8:56commitment. I wonder if they, if he, if
- 8:59Trayvon Henderson made the call and said, yeah, I'm going to
- 9:02State the next one. Was not long after you get that
- 9:08one in front of you, Brian. I don't.
- 9:11I mean, I kind of remember it almost verbatim, but I'll let
- 9:15you ride with me, you got it. We supposed to be upset when we
- 9:18lose out kids. Make choices.
- 9:20So be it, if anything, I respected if we're not your
- 9:23number one, make it known. It's like you were saying
- 9:26earlier, we'll shoot our shot at the next one.
- 9:28This is us. And if it's not for you or
- 9:31you're not sure it's okay and good luck.
- 9:34If it is Huawei get in, let's go.
- 9:38That's the one you were talking about and they are fired up.
- 9:41I got real fired up all that. Well I'm not gonna lie, I got
- 9:45real fired up on that one. That's the one that really said,
- 9:47okay? And that's what I'm that's what
- 9:50we really I think have been missing from a leadership role
- 9:55with the program. Is somebody that's going to go
- 9:57out there and put their name on it and let these prospects know
- 10:02what we're about and set the tone.
- 10:06You know, somebody that has that social media presence that can
- 10:09really convey that message. Each.
- 10:11So I think that's going to be big.
- 10:13I mean, I know recruiting battles aren't won and lost on
- 10:16Twitter, but I definitely feel like what James doing is
- 10:19definitely moving that needle. Oh, absolutely.
- 10:21And by the way, I know you were out running and getting
- 10:24generative the last one. And this is one that I think
- 10:27speaks to the roots of this program of we are blue collar.
- 10:32We are hard-working. This program has been
- 10:34significant for the last 27 years.
- 10:39Ohio State play. This is like that has been
- 10:42significant 70-plus years. Brandon Hill was always trying
- 10:45to make that point. Keep people in check.
- 10:47Remember we are down. We have a 50 year deficit to
- 10:52make up. Yep.
- 10:54Don't look at stars but today he said it perfectly it's again
- 10:57it's why we love him as a coach and I'll get over here.
- 11:01VT brand is powered by the people, those who built it,
- 11:06those who entrusted with it and those up next to carry it
- 11:09forward and then he quotes what's on the hook you storm
- 11:12for. They come out for those who have
- 11:13passed for those to come, it ain't just words on a rock.
- 11:17It's the rock as it has climbed from Spectators.
- 11:22Pick a dude. I get the feeling when I'm
- 11:28reading some of the J, hams tweets.
- 11:30It's you like this is what bud was probably when Jay was
- 11:35playing form back when we were building that Legacy with me and
- 11:39you were kids watching it in the 90s.
- 11:43I don't know. We have met but a couple times I
- 11:45could see a younger bug being this.
- 11:48And maybe that's what it is. Yeah.
- 11:50And I mean, you know, you didn't see it in print or on Twitter
- 11:55because I didn't exist back then.
- 11:56But I mean, I'm sure this stuff like that is the conversations
- 12:00that were Behind the scenes, those the conversations that
- 12:02were had in living rooms or on the telephone you know, when Bud
- 12:07was doing his thing. So I definitely think that this
- 12:11is kind of like the the next step in the evolution of what
- 12:15that defensive coordinator is going to be for us.
- 12:17I love what James doing, man. It's it's just it's really
- 12:21speaking to just our image and what we've been about and just
- 12:25kind of kind of evolving it, taking it to that next level.
- 12:28Yeah. And then You know, Jay hands,
- 12:31just making noise all over the place, the 24/7 stuff, you got a
- 12:34chance to read on that and tell me when you're reading that and
- 12:37some of the stuff that he's talking about, what are you
- 12:39seeing that? We're going to see changing on
- 12:41defense this year. So the big thing that I'm seeing
- 12:45in that we were talking about the just for reference guys,
- 12:48talking about the article on 24/7 where que Han was kind of
- 12:51talking a little bit about some of the new things, you might see
- 12:55relative to the Bud. Foster defense has to have that
- 12:57he's got the reins and you know what we're not going.
- 13:00These wholesale changes top to bottom, it's still going to be
- 13:05very much a similar style of Defense but there's going to be
- 13:11nuances to it that are completely and 100% J Hamm and
- 13:15some of the new assistance that we've got on staff.
- 13:17Now particularly what I'm looking at is probably big
- 13:20changes in at the defensive line front with some of the schemes
- 13:24that tier link is going to put in and it's going to flow over
- 13:28to the front seven. You're going to see a A lot of
- 13:31showing Blitz is pre-snap and then bailing on those.
- 13:35We're going to try to do a lot with confusing the offensive
- 13:38line into committing to a man and then having to make another
- 13:43decision on the fly when either the bail happens or when
- 13:45somebody comes from somewhere else, that wasn't showing now,
- 13:49the other piece in and I see some of the commitments we have
- 13:54is I think J Hamm and I don't know if it's going to be so much
- 13:58it corner, but I think it's safety.
- 14:01And nickel, he talks about interchangeable pieces in from
- 14:05what you're saying about. How you have guys moving up to
- 14:07the line away from the line failing, drop it.
- 14:09In the coverages, he's probably, I think we're going to see
- 14:13prototypical, same size, same skillset dies at all three of
- 14:17those positions going forward. I don't think we're going to be
- 14:20looking for like, a 5-10 thumper.
- 14:23I'll I read you Floyd it Rover anymore.
- 14:26I don't think we're gonna see similar guys at Whip or nickel
- 14:30any More I get that feel when he talked about the interchangeable
- 14:35that, you know what? I'm putting eight guys on the
- 14:38line of scrimmage, but you just said, hey, you make the decision
- 14:42of who's coming and who's not, hope you don't mess up because
- 14:45we want to pop your quarterback. We want to get him down.
- 14:48We want to make him get Happy Feet and short arm throws.
- 14:51So I love seeing that. I think it would really stinks
- 14:55is not having the spring game where you kind of probably yeah
- 14:58some of that. And But at least people kind of
- 15:02pulled the curtain back. A little Force this time.
- 15:06Yeah from a secondary philosophy.
- 15:08Used to build off what you're talking about there.
- 15:09I think we're still going to see a lot of kind of cover three
- 15:11philosophies, but I think who's going to be the robber on any
- 15:16given down is going to change and it's going to change it
- 15:19depending on where the level of the the blitz show is going to
- 15:24depend on who's coming, who's going?
- 15:25I mean I think you're going to see a lot of not only additional
- 15:29pressure. But because of the coverage
- 15:32being disguised pre-snap, you're going to see some more
- 15:34turnovers, not only because of the quarterback having to make a
- 15:37quicker decision. But because of the quarterback,
- 15:40not really knowing, you know, where that secondary players
- 15:43going to be playing underneath coverage on any given down.
- 15:48You're definitely right, man, by that.
- 15:50And again, stinks. We don't get to see the product
- 15:54on the field, but it's nice to kind of get an idea of what
- 15:58potentially could be happening. Hopefully, we see that Liberty
- 16:01game Labor Day weekend? Brian, you just talked about it.
- 16:07This speaking of TNT Chapel chernykh, two of their guys on
- 16:11the hard hat Series this week, tell me what you thought about
- 16:16Belmar and Hewitt man. Belmar and he you know, I love
- 16:21the way they kind of started off the conversation there.
- 16:24They were really talking about, you know, the trench mentality
- 16:27and inside drill and half line and how you got to really commit
- 16:32to that stuff and really go into the preparation of it the same
- 16:37way that you would treat a game because you can't just flip a
- 16:40switch and turn that type of stuff on and off.
- 16:42That's something that you've got to do every day.
- 16:43You got to live it and, you know, they talked about that a
- 16:46good deal. I I loved what Belmar was saying
- 16:50about some of the trash talk and, you know, he would played
- 16:52off a little bit. But, you know, Belmar talking
- 16:55about his game kind of feeds off the trash box.
- 16:58He trash talks to get himself up and he's like, you know, I like
- 17:01getting the other guy out to, I like to go against the best.
- 17:03I like the whole that. That's, that's what I like to
- 17:06hear right there. Somebody that wants to get the
- 17:09best from the opponent, and still make them pay for it a
- 17:11little bit. Did you watch much it?
- 17:13Cost a little of it actually watch the whole thing, but I
- 17:16watched it when it first came out and she was like a month ago
- 17:18now. The other the other piece that
- 17:21you kind of feel those guys, they're feeling their feeling
- 17:26till next expertise, like it's almost like they're kind of
- 17:29said, they don't get the time with him this spring, but they
- 17:33feel like probably through and I don't know what the coaches can
- 17:36do and what not? But you feel like he's getting
- 17:38them. Some things to look at it tape
- 17:40and stuff where they're kind of like it's the trust thing,
- 17:44right? They had Charlie for all those
- 17:45years and this guys coming up and he's showing them things in
- 17:48the it's like, whoa, this guy's knows what he is doing.
- 17:54Yeah. Now they'll talk and the other
- 17:56thing that he did, he talked about the biggest thing that I
- 17:59was no not. He's like, you know, he's been
- 18:02in the NFL for 10 years, he knows, you know, the coaching
- 18:07Circle, he knows the scouts. I mean that's going to pay some
- 18:10dividends when we're talking about putting some hokey town in
- 18:13the NFL as well. So it's not just oh we got an
- 18:17NFL guy. Yeah, he's going to A expertise
- 18:21defensive line coach in terms of knowing what he's doing.
- 18:25How does scheme how to get additional pressure that we have
- 18:28been able to get, but it's also that aspect and then maybe you
- 18:31can't undersell. That aspect is that's a big
- 18:33reason that, you know, prospects commit to these Blue Bloods
- 18:37schools is because of their NFL Factory resume.
- 18:41Absolutely. I mean, you can't again, I would
- 18:44like to trade down for a second. I mean Dobbins is probably going
- 18:47to be a high pick. Zeke their Carlos Hyde in the
- 18:50league. There's a lot of Ohio State
- 18:52running backs that are there right now.
- 18:55So yeah, but you're right with Karen, because you get a feeling
- 18:59what's going to happen, for example, Hewitt Belmar, some of
- 19:02these guys graduating this year, if he gives a call up his
- 19:05buddies and at the bills are guys, he's coach was saying,
- 19:08hey, take a shower in the sky and you see them get drafted,
- 19:11where they like, wait a second. He got drafted, why did he get
- 19:14drafted? And then some kid that, you
- 19:17know, spring games talking about.
- 19:18Hey, No congratulations. You got drafted.
- 19:20But what happened? Oh, coach tear link called the
- 19:23Denver Broncos d-line coach. Instead I would be a good fit
- 19:26and they took me there. So yeah, you're a hundred
- 19:29percent right by that tell the, the other guy.
- 19:37It seems like there's already these guys are already.
- 19:40Just they know everything about it and you feel, it just just
- 19:46going so much on them. What did you think about how
- 19:48they talked about their biggest thing?
- 19:52And I mean, we noticed this because we talked about him
- 19:54being at the spring game and stuff the times we went, before
- 19:57he died. He was on the staff but talking
- 19:59about how they always, you know, they were seeing him around
- 20:01campus, you know, before he got the job, the last couple years.
- 20:05So, you know, this, Isn't just something that, you know, tap
- 20:10took the opportunity to go back to his alma mater.
- 20:12I mean, this is a guy that has always wanted to be around the
- 20:16program be keyed in. And, you know, they talked about
- 20:21his Drive, how he is at practice how he's pushing them.
- 20:24But he also talks about how he's pushing to watch film pushing to
- 20:26get better every day. And I mean, that's what we knew.
- 20:29We were going to get from tap, he's intense, but he's intense
- 20:32in a productive way. And he's gonna get them, I think
- 20:37motivated to just get after it and get better every day and
- 20:40that's what they're talking about.
- 20:42And I'm hoping we start seeing some of those results.
- 20:44Absolutely. And they also what they say he
- 20:46had the cleats and spikes on out there while they were too.
- 20:48Yeah. You said he's still, he can
- 20:50still get it. Also, tap is now he's becoming
- 20:54the official spokesman anything. Yeah.
- 20:58Tapping sell anything man. Get up going through the video
- 21:01the other day. It was like him.
- 21:03Like, like again, it's It's it's a coach it's a recruiting pitch
- 21:08but since its kind of he's not recruiting one specific person.
- 21:12Even it's during the dead time. What?
- 21:14They can't say anything about it.
- 21:16So it's kind of a sneaky way to get around to say, you get a
- 21:19feeling probably some of these kids might have got wind of this
- 21:24video before us, public did so, but also the new facilities man.
- 21:31I mean, that's gosh that they look Some people.
- 21:36Yeah, go get yourself. A famous.
- 21:38Cannot wait to see the finished product.
- 21:40Now, there was one other part hit series with the to
- 21:43Specialists, Oscar Bradburn, best hundred country, and Brian
- 21:48Johnson survive who has really come on especially last year,
- 21:53but listening to those guys, talk Braun.
- 21:55And again you played and I don't know how it was, you know, 15
- 21:58years ago. You know, you're at the
- 22:00Collegiate level. But those guys they talked about
- 22:04every time It seems more and more like we don't want to be
- 22:07known as specialist when we go out there and hit these
- 22:09workouts, can we want to be football players and it seemed
- 22:12like that was something. I feel like that's a cultural
- 22:16thing. Like, yeah, you're a kicker but
- 22:19you know what? Ball out as far as you can on
- 22:21some of these drills? Yeah, I mean that's kind of like
- 22:25a like a football football work. Like, work out nerd thing to say
- 22:30and I love it because I was definitely like a gym rat with
- 22:33that, even though I played a every down offensive position,
- 22:38you know, I'm always out there trying to beat the guy next to
- 22:40me and I love that he was talking about trying to, you
- 22:43know, when why I tell everything Oscar talking about trying to
- 22:47power clean. More than he's like, I did not
- 22:49never got there but, you know, Oscar Dad bod as well.
- 22:55So you know, that's another thing here.
- 22:57But what I dug is like here in kickers talk about your craft
- 23:01and like kind of the nuances that I think a lot of people
- 23:04either take for granted or just don't pick up only if you see a
- 23:0850-yard Punt and you think that's good but if it didn't go
- 23:11where we're coach wanted to go you know officers getting an
- 23:15earful when he comes off to the sidelines and that was an
- 23:18interesting take two and something that if you're not
- 23:21paying attention to, you might be like, oh okay.
- 23:23Well, what will Johnson was similar talking about like
- 23:26making a kick and just sneaking through the left side.
- 23:28And he goes back to the sideline and showed us is like giving him
- 23:31to look like down the middle. Not on the left side it was it's
- 23:35like one of those things. Those guys aim to be perfect and
- 23:38shaba seems like he aims to be perfect, which is no.
- 23:42They know if they don't like I have a feeling that 54-yard at
- 23:45the Belt Bowl that did go dead sister.
- 23:48I don't think James, Chavez jumped on Brian Johnson an Oscar
- 23:51for that one, he probably gave him big hugs.
- 23:54Could you be like he hold them accountable for it so it's
- 23:56pretty great. Hold them accountable and I
- 24:00loved it. You know, Oscar throwing it over
- 24:02to Brian about when talking about the feels like you know
- 24:06Brian's got such a harder job than then he does even relative
- 24:10to Chavez's expectations. Just because from a fan
- 24:15perspective, you know he was talking about, you know, you go
- 24:18out nail 350 yards but you missed a 40-yarder and you know,
- 24:21people going to give you crap, he's like.
- 24:23But if I A shank a 35-yard punt but I can't three or four 50s.
- 24:28Nobody's going to say anything to me today.
- 24:31Exactly. That's a big thing to think
- 24:34about you from a specialist. All young man.
- 24:36Now right before we started doing the recording the podcast.
- 24:41We got to commit will Johnson safety about a Maryland?
- 24:48Yes sir Brian. Yeah I know you jump pretty
- 24:51quick to look at his tape. Oh where's this guy going to
- 24:52play Man? I think he's going to be a whip
- 24:56whip for us. Probably like like we said we're
- 24:58going to be a little more flexible with that position I
- 25:00think. But yeah, I think he's
- 25:03definitely going to step in behind Shamari Connor and be
- 25:05kind of be that guy that's going to get groomed for the future to
- 25:07take over that role. Yeah I do think we're going to
- 25:10be a little more flexible with how we deploy that position but
- 25:16I think that's where he's going to line up.
- 25:17Just got 62, 200 pounds, coaches, coaches son, tackles
- 25:22like a linebacker. Would you say so?
- 25:24Um please, he's a thumper, he's with a, he does like to hit two
- 25:30of the more impressive things is when he got in the Box, read
- 25:34where the play was going real fast, played over the top of the
- 25:37guard guide, the backfield made the play and play just before
- 25:41that, he was playing Centerfield and broke before the
- 25:44quarterback, even let go of the ball and delivered a big hit on
- 25:48the wide receiver, just as the ball arrived.
- 25:51So those two stood out for me Not Fleet of foot in terms of
- 25:56straight-line speed but really quick and fast and makes really
- 25:58good instinctive. Decide that makes me understand
- 26:00why you say he's going to be nickel, whip being a little
- 26:02close to the line, I'm still figuring out how this kids a
- 26:06three-star. He won Defensive Player of the
- 26:08Year up in his League. That includes DeMatha.
- 26:12Yeah. Okay.
- 26:13He's not a fight-starter with the math and some of those
- 26:17schools in your defensive player that you're not your senior
- 26:20year, junior year. I think somebody maybe he was
- 26:23understand. Sized and maybe he was like 5 10
- 26:25last year when they raided and now he's got the spurt and he's
- 26:28got the weight on him. Where's Brandon Hill?
- 26:31Stars? Don't matter.
- 26:32It's true. Don't need to bring Brendon
- 26:34Brendon and sometimes you can tell us that but also man this
- 26:40week I'm sure you've noticed our players may not be on campus in
- 26:46the weight room but these guys, oh my gosh, they are all over
- 26:51the place working out. I mean Having there were yet,
- 26:56Trey Turner and doesn't Hunter looks like they were in.
- 26:58Maybe their dad's garage is with some crazy setups, doing some
- 27:02wild exercises, and some workouts man.
- 27:05So you're just grinding it out. Who else did you catch?
- 27:10I caught the hollifield brothers, getting in.
- 27:13I'm not sure if it was a private facility or something, but they
- 27:16were, they were getting some ladder drills on working that
- 27:19agility, the one that cracked me up the most Austin Cannon.
- 27:24He got bored. So he was pushing exhort that's
- 27:26definitely a country song that's going to come out later dude.
- 27:29Austin's up in Mechanicsville. The next time you see like a big
- 27:35Expedition you should look around me like his, is he
- 27:37pushing it again? Because it's at Austin.
- 27:40That's awesome. He's just pushing the.
- 27:41He's just pushing I saw. Darrell Smith has your people
- 27:45inside. Looks like their apartment and
- 27:47Blacksburg. Working out, Keyshawn artist.
- 27:51Did you say I didn't see this until today is Like four days
- 27:54ago. Dude.
- 27:55They were like taking medicine balls in like, they're on the
- 27:58volleyball court in the saying, in their shorts and no shirts.
- 28:01Like launching the medicine balls, over the net of each
- 28:05other. Catching it.
- 28:06Yeah. Did you see that?
- 28:08And then even Kendall Fuller I thought you see posts of the the
- 28:11come back like this how we really do it, but the ball kept
- 28:15coming to Kent. I think he was get a little arm
- 28:16tired at the end there. He's like I'm gonna throw this.
- 28:18Pesticide get this thing away from me, so it's awesome to see
- 28:22those kids doing that. And then, Then Coach through
- 28:25comes out of hibernation and throws out a tweet.
- 28:29Not only of what we saw, but then it looks like, I mean, it
- 28:32felt like it felt like, more than half the team.
- 28:35He got had some sort of video he put together showing all over
- 28:38and doing all sorts of things. I made the joke with you earlier
- 28:43today. Pretty sure he is one man, and
- 28:47he has a wife and three girls. I'm pretty sure you probably
- 28:50just want a little insane and just said, you know what?
- 28:52Give me the phone almost to start Tweeting things and he
- 28:57definitely he set a record. He's like it to tweets the one
- 28:59day I think this is the most I've seen from food.
- 29:04So I got to ask man since we're seeing all this home gym in and
- 29:08you know, people pushing forwards the World's Strongest
- 29:11Man style. What have you been doing to stay
- 29:15in shape in this lockdown since we're both working?
- 29:17Um, well, there's the bad thing we started out, we actually
- 29:22we're doing pretty good. No working out here with my wife
- 29:25doing stuff like that. The first week, we did a couple
- 29:28of them and we hit it pretty hard so we're pretty sore but
- 29:31since then I'm I'm doing some things out with some West Coast
- 29:36people. So my day is Jack, dude, I'm
- 29:40getting up at 6:30 because that's what time the little one
- 29:43wakes up and I'm not really getting off on those 6:30 at
- 29:46night. I'm not working a full 12 hours
- 29:48but one time I buy you were on, you were on for, I was on his
- 29:53way. I'm working it.
- 29:54You may not be punching the clock.
- 29:58I will say this. Chasing the boy surrounds a good
- 30:02exercise, pushing them up and down the hill with the little
- 30:06one up and down the hill on this stuff and then I did some are
- 30:09rating which I will tell you. You push on 175-pound aerator
- 30:14for a couple hours, you get a workout in.
- 30:16So nothing if you set up something there at the house,
- 30:21I'm doing a little bit of a little bit of cardio, little bit
- 30:25of outdoor work with the sun running around playing tag.
- 30:29You know. That's that's that's cardio.
- 30:31It is, you know we got a trampoline in the bag so I've
- 30:36been I've been hitting that up a little bit but I mean I need to
- 30:40probably do more because you know, I've been out of the gym
- 30:43for about going 3 plus weeks now.
- 30:45So I'm missing it big time I was I was Learning to get.
- 30:51I what I wasn't quite at Squad and 600 levels, but I was, I was
- 30:56back in, I was back in solid form, you know, Benjamin
- 31:00Squadron power cleaning. So I'm kind of sad.
- 31:03I'm losing some of that, but it is what it is.
- 31:07Gotta gotta do. What's best for everybody?
- 31:08Exactly, stay home work from home.
- 31:12Don't go anywhere. Lock it down.
- 31:16Now, it's kind of funny because the topic we're Talking about
- 31:21today that the one we sort of reported promoted.
- 31:26Now we want to tell everybody, we are switching it up, we are
- 31:29not going to do our first game experiences because if we did
- 31:33that today, we would have a 90-minute broadcast and our
- 31:37wives would be like hell are you spending time with me today?
- 31:42Since then time with Bryden? Curtis but we were you Brian
- 31:47made the point of dude, our kids right now Their home.
- 31:51So they're playing they're doing some schoolwork but you can't
- 31:54expect to seven year old and a three year old because our kids
- 31:57are basically the same age to do homework all day.
- 32:00They're watching all sorts of stuff.
- 32:02They're the lucky kids. They got home to, man, they've
- 32:04got ya, they got everything man. They got like Disney plus, you
- 32:15brought up a great thing when we were kids this age, you know?
- 32:19And it was summertime or spring break.
- 32:21What did we watch? And it was pretty awesome.
- 32:25And I'll be honest, one of the first thing I remember watching,
- 32:29it was like a thing. It started.
- 32:30It was nine noon Monday through Friday USA.
- 32:36American Gladiators empathy, even though it was still
- 32:44awesome. Okay, let's do this.
- 32:49Love to watch it. Would watch it all morning.
- 32:52What was your favorite event? I'm gonna have to go with the
- 32:59jowls the joust. Yeah.
- 33:04I mean, I like the joust, although, you know, sometimes
- 33:08you would look at the size of the guy playing like a guy like
- 33:12laser and it just be like, this guy doesn't have any chance
- 33:16against them. No, remember laser laser laser
- 33:19pull you off and just get the DQ.
- 33:21Oh yeah, he was definitely a little dirty.
- 33:25But personally, my favorite assault that's all.
- 33:30Yes. One of those, it was like, you
- 33:34know, a it involved having things thrown at you but you
- 33:39have the opportunity to fight back like, okay, I got to get to
- 33:42the first station in, I don't know.
- 33:44That one is always just just a lot of it was like a fun event.
- 33:48So when it came up, who I gotta watch this, can this guy get
- 33:51close and you know at least make break the finish line and then
- 33:54you see some of them and it would be kind of credential
- 33:57don't be wrong, taking the jobs to the head hurts.
- 34:00But you see some of these guys like take the tennis ball.
- 34:02All right, off the ribs and you're like all that her.
- 34:07Yeah. The other one I like is
- 34:08breakthrough and Conquer. I mean that's a that's a
- 34:10football and wrestling right there.
- 34:12Basically. Oklahoma drill.
- 34:14Trying to get past them, but we're going to Oklahoma.
- 34:18And then you got to, you know, push a big dude out of the ring,
- 34:22geez, Louise. But yeah, that was awesome.
- 34:26I know the one you threw. So ESPN had a bunch of good
- 34:29stuff back then to me, and used to be here for Well, a man with
- 34:32a lot of places but I mean, said, the biggest, the biggest
- 34:35one Greer's of world's strongest.
- 34:38Oh yes, the ones from like the 80s with like, like Bill Kazmir
- 34:44in just a little bit later. Magnus ver magnusson, it's just
- 34:49funny. Like, you remember those names?
- 34:50And it's like, what are those guys do?
- 34:52They just lifted really heavy things and it was just
- 34:55unbelievable to watch. Yeah, I mean, it was, yeah, the
- 34:59kids today don't understand the ESP, and that we go.
- 35:02Grew up with and it's oh my God, like all these, all these
- 35:06females Talking Heads yelling and we're used to be, you wake
- 35:09up. If you woke up at six o'clock,
- 35:10SportsCenter SportsCenter till what one of the best part about
- 35:16that you could like go look at other programs.
- 35:19Play video games, do tons of other stuff and I'll catch the
- 35:23next 15 minutes when I come back.
- 35:28If it was summertime, you know, you'll flip back right now.
- 35:29I want to see all the The good home runs from the day so I
- 35:33won't. Come on, tune in and watch
- 35:35Griffey and bonds. Yes, I'm out.
- 35:37Then I'm gonna flip back to something that's exactly.
- 35:40Now, I know the one that you're the most in love, with was the
- 35:44NFL lineman challenge. Yes.
- 35:48Yes. So, that was one of my favorites
- 35:50to watch, they share the rears all through the summer and stuff
- 35:54and, you know, early on in the Run of that, you know, Warren
- 35:58Sapp would dominate occasionally Strahan or break through and
- 36:01then later run. I think Jason Taylor won like
- 36:03three years in a row or something just before they stop
- 36:06doing it. Just because you know he was the
- 36:09fastest Lyman they had plus. He was strong enough to not be
- 36:16deficient at the bench press and stuff like that.
- 36:18So that was always fun to watch though because yeah, I love
- 36:21seeing lime and show off their athleticism because they don't,
- 36:24you know, they don't that doesn't really always get
- 36:26highlighted when you watch NFL highlights or watching the game,
- 36:31they don't talk. This much.
- 36:33So it always always liked watching this.
- 36:35Some of the lime is show out there athletic skills.
- 36:38Yeah, 100% is always fun to watch woman.
- 36:41Like it made you talk about Jason Taylor.
- 36:43I can remember him when it is. Can you just look and be like,
- 36:46he's like 65 like 270. He was so fast and he was so
- 36:51strong. And I mean it's a reason he's a
- 36:53hall-of-famer. It's kind of like sap sap is
- 36:56like 1633 15 in there was no reason for a man that bitch.
- 37:02You know what also made you think like if I just keep
- 37:07walking because track me down and kill me.
- 37:13So Bob Barker, oh my goodness, The
- 37:30Price is Right Bob, Barker Are you ever feel like you're a
- 37:34genius when you like got like three or four things right on
- 37:37that show? Yeah, yeah, I was never as good
- 37:40as Bernie fencing. But I mean, occasionally I can
- 37:42get one in the mid 80s, but the pyramid.
- 37:54Yeah. Yeah, that was big.
- 37:57That's right. Yeah, Press Your Luck.
- 38:01Yes, sir. The third big bucks?
- 38:04No, whammies the other one that I think a very vastly underrated
- 38:09game show of our childhood Alex, Trebek classic concentration.
- 38:16I hope, man. You threw it back like that one.
- 38:20It was always a computer game. there you go, there will be some
- 38:32of our audience if they are under the
- 38:54Made Godfather is the price of Right with Bob the Beauties.
- 38:58Cool showcases, you know, all sorts get your pet spayed and
- 39:04neutered, right? At the end you always got to get
- 39:06that at everybody. Plus I think the other part of
- 39:09those shows and you think about all of them, they have also
- 39:12theme songs only had also gained songs, you know, and the best
- 39:18called ever come on calm down. This is Rod Roddy.
- 39:26Anybody that has to stay at Mama's house at Grandma's house
- 39:29knows about, you know, somewhere around noon, 1:00 p.m. we gonna
- 39:34be watching the story. Restless, yep.
- 39:39Everybody had to watch melodrama to the extreme and, you know, at
- 39:46some point, every do got admitted.
- 39:48They probably got into a storyline for a bit.
- 39:54Is a young adolescent, you know, between the ages of, like, 10
- 39:57and 14, you know, I kind of get onto it and, you know, some of
- 40:02the women on the show are attractive and you're like, oh
- 40:05wow. Yeah next thing you know you're
- 40:07like need even to a story hold on grandma what is going on
- 40:09here? Explains running back on this
- 40:12yesterday but yeah, all those things is kids it's kind of
- 40:20funny. We get to see our kids do
- 40:22something similar. Really Up close with what's
- 40:25going on now and now, of course, they don't have the shows
- 40:30because again, they're so lucky. They have video games, they have
- 40:33iPads they have on demand television.
- 40:37Or you could be like me that I'm making my kid watch classic Pete
- 40:40and Pete because Pete's awesome. Dude, my kids Phineas and Ferb
- 40:44now which I can admit, I have set for dude, Phineas and Ferb.
