• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Are you messed up? Onst He's like, what did you

  Speaker 6: in a sling for six weeks.
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: No, but I'm saying you have a couple of weeks
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: off of work, so that's a probably advantageous to your healing.
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's why I did it at this time, and
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: so we could have a couple weeks off to be
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: a little light work.
• 6:02
  Speaker 5: And uh to tell about a little bit with the healing.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Yes, isn't that nice of him? Though? That like he
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: scheduled it around this time because he knew he was
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: gonna have two weeks off and he wouldn't affect his
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: work for two weeks. Yes, it's nice. I wouldn't I
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: would do in the middle of the year. I'd be like,
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: I'm out six weeks.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Sorry, but then somebody then we'd get somebody to replace
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: you then maybe better than you.

  Speaker 2: Yeah? Because yeah, I bought this one for a reason.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: But then what do I need it for?
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: I talked to a buddy of mine who does a
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: lot of those breaks or whatever. He said, Man, this year,
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: everyone's just getting stuff because he's I've been playing for
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: too long. He's got a bunch of crap. He's like,
• 14:24
  Speaker 3: I just got to get rid of it, and he's
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: not selling it really like people getting waynet just a
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: random stuff. All right, Let's go.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Over now to our interview with new Stanford head football
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: coach t Vita Pritchard. He comes over from the Commanders,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: where he spent the last few seasons as their quarterbacks coach.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: But really he's a Stanford guy. He's a former Stanford quarterback.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Big upset against USC once when they were like forty
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: point underdogs. It's a massive game, but we talk about that.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: He's a Stanford guy through and through here he is.
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: I really liked him. Coach ta Vita Pritchard, coach are
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: you underwater right now? I gotta imagine the first couple
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: of weeks is just all relationships and saying hi.
• 15:05
  Speaker 7: Right, there's a lot of relationships, a lot of kind
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: of reinserting back into the matrix. But it has been
• 15:11
  Speaker 7: fun because this is home and it's been exciting to
• 15:14
  Speaker 7: get back here.
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: So I've got to spend a little time with Coach
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Wraig and he came on the show and talked with him,
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: and he was like, I got one year. He was
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: very he said, I'm here because Andrew. I got one
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: year and I'm out. And that's such an interesting situation
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: for you to come in because one nobody left for
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: a bigger job, which wouldn't have happened there, and then
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: two nobody got fired. So it's kind of a positive
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: place to come What has it been like reinserting and
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: has has he helped it all?
• 15:39
  Speaker 7: Yeah, you're right, I mean it was and is very
• 15:42
  Speaker 7: unique in the way that that transition occurred. And I
• 15:46
  Speaker 7: have not interfaced with him a ton leading up to
• 15:48
  Speaker 7: this situation. Obviously, I always knew who he was, you know,
• 15:52
  Speaker 7: through Andrew and then zach Ertz always spoke very highly
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: of him. But in our increasing interactions. As time is
• 16:00
  Speaker 7: gone on, uh man, my respect for him has grown
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: really really quickly, and not just who he is as
• 16:05
  Speaker 7: a coach, but as a man, as a leader. And
• 16:08
  Speaker 7: I can't say enough about what he did in this
• 16:10
  Speaker 7: unique situation, obviously taking over, you know, at a time
• 16:13
  Speaker 7: in the calendar that was not typical, and to come
• 16:17
  Speaker 7: in here like the day before springball, uh and and
• 16:20
  Speaker 7: and kind of be able to do what he did,
• 16:23
  Speaker 7: and and and and instill a culture and and start
• 16:26
  Speaker 7: building for the future, even though he knew that it
• 16:28
  Speaker 7: was that it was a kind of a one year
• 16:30
  Speaker 7: or one season shepherding uh during this time, I can't
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: say enough about the groundwork that was laid with the staff,
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: with the with the players here and the culture going forward.
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: So I would say, you know, Frank Reich is a
• 16:42
  Speaker 7: is a Stanford man forever and always.
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: This is gonna be such a corny question, but since
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: you're a Stanford guy, to come and have the office,
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: was it a moment where you're like, this is now
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: my office?
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: I would say it was less of that and more
• 16:56
  Speaker 7: trying to make sure I didn't walk in the other
• 16:57
  Speaker 7: offices that I've that I've occupied over my time here,
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: because there's probably around five or six. So it was
• 17:04
  Speaker 7: it was more of that than it was the awe
• 17:06
  Speaker 7: of being in this office. It was more like op
• 17:08
  Speaker 7: almost walked into that office because muscle memory told me
• 17:11
  Speaker 7: to do.
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: So.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, when we moved buildings, I drove to the wrong
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: building a couple of times because I had done it
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: so many times. He's you're just sitting down. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: So you mentioned culture and that I think that word's
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: thrown around a lot. But how how do you start
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: changing culture? What are the first steps when you're gonna
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: do something that's so macro. Obviously it takes micro to
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: make macro, what do you start doing?
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah? That's that's it's it's it is the question. It
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: is the question.
• 17:37
  Speaker 7: As you come in here and you talk about installing
• 17:40
  Speaker 7: a culture, the first thing is the people, right because
• 17:42
  Speaker 7: culture is just a shared set of values between people
• 17:45
  Speaker 7: in a group and a and an organization and a team.
• 17:48
  Speaker 7: And so I think the first thing is getting the
• 17:49
  Speaker 7: right people here. You know, I'm working hard right now
• 17:52
  Speaker 7: to identify and hire a staff and put a staff together,
• 17:57
  Speaker 7: and so I think it's about bringing people here who
• 17:59
  Speaker 7: are a fit and obviously fit can be interpreted in
• 18:02
  Speaker 7: a lot of different ways. But they first have to
• 18:04
  Speaker 7: understand what our vision is going forward and and and
• 18:08
  Speaker 7: kind of who we're going to be, what we're going
• 18:10
  Speaker 7: to be about. And then they have to be a
• 18:12
  Speaker 7: fit for Stanford, you know, and this is a unique place.
• 18:14
  Speaker 7: It's a special place. It's a place that I know
• 18:16
  Speaker 7: and I love very very very much. And and so
• 18:20
  Speaker 7: they have to understand not that they have to have
• 18:21
  Speaker 7: even a history with Stanford, but there are certain things
• 18:24
  Speaker 7: that they have to understand are unique to this place,
• 18:26
  Speaker 7: and that there are things that we're not just gonna
• 18:28
  Speaker 7: put up with, but we're actually going to lean into.
• 18:30
  Speaker 7: You know, when you talk about the way that you
• 18:32
  Speaker 7: have to recruit here, some people can see that as
• 18:34
  Speaker 7: a negative. I see it as a superpower, right, and
• 18:37
  Speaker 7: something that that allows us to identify the people who
• 18:41
  Speaker 7: belong here and then bring them here and develop them.
• 18:43
  Speaker 7: So that's the first thing, is bringing the people here,
• 18:46
  Speaker 7: and then it's and then it's really deciding and defining
• 18:49
  Speaker 7: what the culture is. And that's not just a me thing,
• 18:51
  Speaker 7: right this, this this whole thing is not about me.
• 18:54
  Speaker 7: It's about myself, and Andrew and Sam Fisher and the
• 18:57
  Speaker 7: other folks in this building, really finding hey, what is
• 19:00
  Speaker 7: going to what is going to set us apart, and
• 19:02
  Speaker 7: what's going to make us the best program we can be.
• 19:04
  Speaker 7: And then once that's done, it's it's reinforcing that every day.
• 19:07
  Speaker 7: And I think that's the biggest thing is you get
• 19:09
  Speaker 7: a culture off the ground. It's making it very clear
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: what it is, and then it's reinforcing it. It's repeating
• 19:14
  Speaker 7: it so that so that that thing can be seen
• 19:16
  Speaker 7: and reinforcing it's catching people doing it right, right. I
• 19:19
  Speaker 7: mean we're going to talk about competition. That's going to
• 19:21
  Speaker 7: be core to our culture, right. I want to be
• 19:23
  Speaker 7: able to catch people right. So it's walking out to
• 19:25
  Speaker 7: the practice field when I can and go watching you know,
• 19:28
  Speaker 7: workouts and saying and saying, hey, you guys do a
• 19:31
  Speaker 7: great job competing, you know. So it's just reinforcing those things.
• 19:34
  Speaker 7: It's it's finding those and then it's being honest and
• 19:36
  Speaker 7: telling the truth when it's when we're falling short of
• 19:39
  Speaker 7: that mark, right, whether it's myself or anybody else, Like hey,
• 19:42
  Speaker 7: when you're instill in culture, it's really about making sure
• 19:44
  Speaker 7: that you're upholding those things in a really really strong
• 19:47
  Speaker 7: manner from day one.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: So I know clark Ley, who coaches Vanderbilt here because
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: we live and we've done some stuff together and they
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: have a similar, i won't even say issue, but a
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: similar circumstance to where they have to recruit a different
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: way And are there guys that you will see and man,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: I'd really love to have them, but if it's grades
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: or that you can't take because of what the what
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Stanford demands out of their student athlete.
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what I mean.
• 20:13
  Speaker 7: It's it's what you find here is there is a
• 20:16
  Speaker 7: filtering process, right and one that honestly, you know, I
• 20:19
  Speaker 7: mentioned it's a superpower of this place because it's it's
• 20:24
  Speaker 7: one of those.
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: Things where I don't look at guys and say, oh, man,
• 20:26
  Speaker 4: I can't recruit them. Our recruiting department does.
• 20:29
  Speaker 7: It does a great job of you know, those those
• 20:31
  Speaker 7: players usually don't even come across my desk, right And
• 20:34
  Speaker 7: and I'm saying my desk right now in this role,
• 20:36
  Speaker 7: but even even going back to when I was here before, right,
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: you really kind of what you what you don't see,
• 20:41
  Speaker 7: you're not you're not reacting to you know.
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: So it's like, I know the guys that we can recruit.
• 20:46
  Speaker 7: I know that crop of people that we are looking at,
• 20:49
  Speaker 7: the what we are evaluating and getting to know, and
• 20:52
  Speaker 7: so it's it's way more leaning into man, who who
• 20:54
  Speaker 7: can be here?
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 20:55
  Speaker 7: Who are those folks that we're looking for and identifying?
• 20:58
  Speaker 7: Because when you when you do cut that down, it
• 21:00
  Speaker 7: allows us to be a lot more specific and efficient
• 21:03
  Speaker 7: and effective, right in being able to focus on a smaller.
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: Group from day one.
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: Are you going to call plays?
• 21:09
  Speaker 7: I came in here guns of blazing that I was
• 21:10
  Speaker 7: going to call plays, and I'm now in a space
• 21:13
  Speaker 7: where I want to stay open. I want to stay open.
• 21:16
  Speaker 7: I will be involved in the offense. That's something that
• 21:19
  Speaker 7: we're working through right now, and I'm looking forward to
• 21:22
  Speaker 7: putting it together, this collection of people that's going to
• 21:25
  Speaker 7: come in here, both on the offensive side and the
• 21:27
  Speaker 7: defensive side. But I have walked back from that stance
• 21:30
  Speaker 7: a little bit, just knowing that, like, I want to
• 21:33
  Speaker 7: get the best people here, and I don't want to
• 21:34
  Speaker 7: limit me.
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: I don't want to limit us.
• 21:36
  Speaker 7: I don't want to limit this program because I actually
• 21:39
  Speaker 7: want to get the best and best fit people for
• 21:42
  Speaker 7: this place.
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: How do you feel about non conference games?
• 21:44
  Speaker 4: I'm still figuring that out.
• 21:45
  Speaker 7: Man, I'm still figuring that out, you know, just like
• 21:48
  Speaker 7: just like being in I mean, you ask non conference,
• 21:50
  Speaker 7: but I'm coming here, you know, to a brand new conference.
• 21:53
  Speaker 7: Then I left, and so I'm wrapping my head around that.
• 21:56
  Speaker 7: I'm wrapping my head around non conference games and all
• 21:58
  Speaker 7: to travel with conference, and so I'm still you know,
• 22:01
  Speaker 7: it's fun. It's fun to kind of reinsert here and
• 22:04
  Speaker 7: and kind of catch up, so to speak, right because
• 22:06
  Speaker 7: I'm both catching up on things that were familiar to
• 22:08
  Speaker 7: me and then I'm catching up in a sense that like,
• 22:10
  Speaker 7: oh man, this has changed since I've been gone, you know.
• 22:13
  Speaker 7: So uh, you know, when it comes to non conference,
• 22:15
  Speaker 7: I'm excited to play the best around the country, you know.
• 22:18
  Speaker 7: I mean I think that's something that you know, when
• 22:20
  Speaker 7: I was here before, you know, I have great memories obviously,
• 22:23
  Speaker 7: not Notre Dame is a is a non conference that
• 22:25
  Speaker 7: we play every year that has always been a really
• 22:28
  Speaker 7: good matchup for us, and and one that you know,
• 22:31
  Speaker 7: has a great history. And I remember playing in that game,
• 22:33
  Speaker 7: I remember coaching in that game, and we had some
• 22:36
  Speaker 7: great battles and I look forward to that one. And
• 22:38
  Speaker 7: then I think we've done a good job of scheduling.
• 22:41
  Speaker 7: You know, schools that you know are challenging to us
• 22:44
  Speaker 7: and that we have that we have great games against.
• 22:46
  Speaker 7: So I'm looking forward to kind of working with Andrew
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: and getting caught up on.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: A lot of that stuff.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I wouldn't sedule a single heart team non conference,
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: we were seeing it. I would play all high schools, Coach,
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: I would just go play high schools in California. I
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: wouldn't travel because you guys are traveling all across the
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: freaking and you're playing nine conference games next year, You're
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: having to go to Virginia tehigh schools.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: What high school did you go to?
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: Well, I didn't go, and one to California. I'm from Arkansas.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: But I'm just saying all I would play are high
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: schools in California. So you don't you don't lose THATAK Academy.
• 23:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe we can get some high schools on this.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: How do you know Pulaski Academy?
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: Man, I've been recruiting for a long time.
• 23:20
  Speaker 7: I can name the most random high schools from the
• 23:22
  Speaker 7: most random places.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: Never has a coach mentioned PA in the middle of
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: an interview like that.
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: Oh, I've been there. Man, I've been there.
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: Come on, hey, why did you go to Stanford?
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: You know what.
• 23:32
  Speaker 7: I grew up in a house my dad played at
• 23:35
  Speaker 7: Washington State University. My parents met there. My uncle was
• 23:38
  Speaker 7: Jack Thompson to Throwing, someone who played at Washington State.
• 23:40
  Speaker 7: So I grew up thinking I'm going to Washington State,
• 23:43
  Speaker 7: like this is this is.
• 23:44
  Speaker 4: In the cards.
• 23:45
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna work hard to be a college football player
• 23:47
  Speaker 7: and go play in the NFL, but I'm gonna go
• 23:48
  Speaker 7: to Washington State. Early in the recruiting process, right back
• 23:52
  Speaker 7: in the old Pack ten, you're basically if you were
• 23:54
  Speaker 7: a West Coast quarterback, you had to be the top
• 23:56
  Speaker 7: ten so you can be a Pac ten quarterback. They
• 23:59
  Speaker 7: took a quarter back early in that cycle, and it
• 24:02
  Speaker 7: kind of rocked my world. I was kind of like, wait,
• 24:03
  Speaker 7: I was supposed to go to Washington State, you know,
• 24:06
  Speaker 7: And I'm not joking. The only thing I knew about
• 24:09
  Speaker 7: Stanford when that happened was that they played Washington State.
• 24:12
  Speaker 7: I was like, I think I know their colors. I
• 24:14
  Speaker 7: couldn't even tell you where it was, but that's the
• 24:16
  Speaker 7: extent of what I knew about Stanford. Obviously, this was
• 24:18
  Speaker 7: a different time, right before social media, so like, you
• 24:21
  Speaker 7: know that that really didn't reach me for whatever reason
• 24:24
  Speaker 7: about like what Stanford was, about what the brand was,
• 24:27
  Speaker 7: and it just so happened. We had a connection to
• 24:29
  Speaker 7: the staff and I got invited to come to a
• 24:30
  Speaker 7: camp here to try to earn a scholarship. And I
• 24:33
  Speaker 7: remember walking on campus for the first time and I
• 24:36
  Speaker 7: actually saw the pool complex and I saw from a distance,
• 24:39
  Speaker 7: which doesn't excuse this what story I'm about to tell,
• 24:42
  Speaker 7: but I looked at it.
• 24:42
  Speaker 4: I was like, Wow, the football stadium. That's incredible.
• 24:45
  Speaker 7: And as we get closer're like, no, coach, that's the
• 24:47
  Speaker 7: that's the pool. And I was like, oh, that's the pool.
• 24:50
  Speaker 7: And it just spoke to just like how incredible this
• 24:54
  Speaker 7: this campus is and the buildings and all that. But
• 24:57
  Speaker 7: what I also didn't know was like the campus, the
• 25:00
  Speaker 7: buildings and the setting are not even the half of it, right,
• 25:03
  Speaker 7: because you get to know the people and you get
• 25:05
  Speaker 7: to know what they're about, how how committed they are
• 25:08
  Speaker 7: and how collaborative they are, and they're about excellence and
• 25:11
  Speaker 7: they're about cohesion, and its just like the more I
• 25:14
  Speaker 7: learned about this place, I was like, man, this is
• 25:16
  Speaker 7: these are my kind of people. And luckily I did
• 25:19
  Speaker 7: well enough in that camp I earned a scholarship. I
• 25:21
  Speaker 7: committed shortly after I got into school. Shortly after that.
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: I'll never forget that phone call. I was at our
• 25:26
  Speaker 7: high school stadium watching my sister play soccer, and we
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: got the call, and I remember, I remember that feeling.
• 25:31
  Speaker 7: I remember the reaction of getting accepted in the school.
• 25:34
  Speaker 7: And it's just like everything has led to, uh, you know,
• 25:37
  Speaker 7: being here and being a part of this community, and
• 25:39
  Speaker 7: and and it is it is, it is. It's made
• 25:43
  Speaker 7: me as a person like I am a product of
• 25:44
  Speaker 7: this place in so many ways. And I'm so grateful
• 25:47
  Speaker 7: for my experience here. And now I'm excited to be
• 25:49
  Speaker 7: able to give back and serve these players and and
• 25:52
  Speaker 7: and and hope to create an equally great experience for them.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: The continuity that is there with and you mentioned Andrew Locke,
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: did that help keep players from jumping in the portal
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: that he could already establish relationships for sure?
• 26:04
  Speaker 7: And Andrew's special Andrew special like like this, this is
• 26:07
  Speaker 7: this is not only was it the fact that his
• 26:10
  Speaker 7: role was already filled and in place, but it's the
• 26:12
  Speaker 7: fact that it's him right, He has an extreme passion
• 26:15
  Speaker 7: for this place. He has an extreme passion period and
• 26:18
  Speaker 7: and he's a dude. He's a dude. Like people understand that, right,
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: and they know what he's about. And Andrew could be
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: doing anything he wants, right, But again, he and I
• 26:27
  Speaker 7: are similar in that, like we are here in service
• 26:30
  Speaker 7: of this place and the experience of our student athletes.
• 26:33
  Speaker 7: And that's and that's something that's real. And I know
• 26:35
  Speaker 7: our students, I know our football players feel that, right.
• 26:38
  Speaker 7: I know our community feels that how invested he is
• 26:41
  Speaker 7: in this place. And so that's a big part of
• 26:42
  Speaker 7: the reason that that guys are still here is they
• 26:44
  Speaker 7: knew that with his support, right, and the and and
• 26:48
  Speaker 7: the and his vision for this, that we were gonna
• 26:51
  Speaker 7: we were going to be going in the direction and
• 26:53
  Speaker 7: they wanted to be a part of it.
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: Got three final questions, And this one may be done
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: because you could have ten times. But I'm going to
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: ask you because I.
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: Got a question.
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah it is because if you like, no, no, John Elway,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: that's a dumb question. But have you got to spend
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: a time with John Alway?
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: You know what I've met John over the years.
• 27:08
  Speaker 7: I've gotten to spend a little bit of time with him,
• 27:09
  Speaker 7: but not it was not it's not been extensive when
• 27:11
  Speaker 7: you were.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: Playing quarterback there. Would you watch tape back of how
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: dominant John Elway was?
• 27:16
  Speaker 3: Oh?
• 27:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure. I mean I think I think it's
• 27:18
  Speaker 7: a it's a core tenet of being a quarterback that
• 27:20
  Speaker 7: you just you watch guys. You love to watch guys
• 27:23
  Speaker 7: and kind of see parts of their game that maybe
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: you see in yourself or or or aspirationally right, like,
• 27:28
  Speaker 7: oh man, I'd love to be able to do it
• 27:29
  Speaker 7: like that. So you really study, and he was certainly
• 27:31
  Speaker 7: one you study because he's one of the all time greats.
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: All right, two questions left. Whenever you take a job
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: and this is your old school, so he probably did
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: have some gear. Is there like a like a box
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: that's like this is going to cover you for the
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: first two weeks, and it's just all it's the hats,
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: it's the shirts, it's everything you're gonna need.
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, I had, I had.
• 27:50
  Speaker 7: You know what's funny is I have a lot of
• 27:52
  Speaker 7: friends in the profession, and they a lot of them
• 27:54
  Speaker 7: have rules because you know they'll have made a number
• 27:57
  Speaker 7: of moves and going to different teams in France into
• 28:01
  Speaker 7: a lot of guys who have been in this coaching
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: world for a long time. They say, okay, hey, I'm
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: going to keep two things from my last job, and
• 28:08
  Speaker 7: so I can get rid of the rest give it away,
• 28:09
  Speaker 7: and then and then you know, I'm may get a
• 28:11
  Speaker 7: new gear at my new place. Well, obviously my journey's
• 28:13
  Speaker 7: been a little bit different, right, I mean, I played it.
• 28:15
  Speaker 7: I started at Stanford as in two thousand and five
• 28:17
  Speaker 7: as a freshman football player, and I was there throughout
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: continuously until twenty twenty two. So I accrued and acquired
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: a lot of gear over my time. Now I will
• 28:27
  Speaker 7: also say this with ten siblings and nieces and nephews
• 28:30
  Speaker 7: and my mom and dad and uncles. Like my closet
• 28:34
  Speaker 7: was raided early and often, so that was spread out,
• 28:37
  Speaker 7: but I still had a lot of gear, and luckily
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: with it, you know, me being alum, even when I
• 28:41
  Speaker 7: moved on from this place, Originally I was like, well,
• 28:44
  Speaker 7: I'm not going to keep two things. Like I still
• 28:45
  Speaker 7: got to represent the squad and be able to, especially
• 28:48
  Speaker 7: on the East coast, you know, kind of spread the
• 28:50
  Speaker 7: gospel of Stanford. So luckily I held onto a lot
• 28:53
  Speaker 7: of stuff. I believe my family did too, so we
• 28:56
  Speaker 7: weren't too far behind.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Last question, And I want to talk about Jay and
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: Dan Niels for a second, but also how that correlates
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: with what you're doing now. Obviously you coach Jane Daniels
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: one Rookie of the Year, but what we would hear
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: and what we'd read is all of like the tech
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: you would use the glasses to see the field. Are
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: you implementing that at Stanford at all?
• 29:13
  Speaker 7: Yeah, we're still looking at like the technology that we're
• 29:16
  Speaker 7: going to use. Obviously we're still we're we're not at
• 29:18
  Speaker 7: that point yet where we're looking at some of those things,
• 29:22
  Speaker 7: but you know, they they do a great job, like
• 29:24
  Speaker 7: the like the group that we worked with, the VR
• 29:27
  Speaker 7: company that we worked with with Jayden, it is it's
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: a great tool.
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: But here's what I.
• 29:31
  Speaker 7: Would say working with Jadan Daniels, working with Marcus Mariotah,
• 29:37
  Speaker 7: Sam Hartman, Josh Johnson this year, like Jayden works man
• 29:41
  Speaker 7: so like whether it's the whether it's the VR goggles
• 29:44
  Speaker 7: or walkthroughs or watching traditional film like he Jayden and
• 29:50
  Speaker 7: market like those guys make those tools, you know what
• 29:52
  Speaker 7: I'm saying, Like, like those tools are only as useful
• 29:55
  Speaker 7: as the user and the person who's utilizing them. So
• 29:59
  Speaker 7: it's really what's what I do want to separate. It's
• 30:01
  Speaker 7: like that is a powerful tool and one that's really
• 30:03
  Speaker 7: really cool, and if you believe in it and you
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: use it, it can be super helpful and really take
• 30:07
  Speaker 7: your game to the next level. But so much of
• 30:10
  Speaker 7: it was about the people, and like getting to work
• 30:12
  Speaker 7: with Jayden has really affected my career. Getting to work
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: with Marcus has really affected my career because those guys,
• 30:17
  Speaker 7: the way that they approach the game, the passion they
• 30:20
  Speaker 7: have for learning, the passion they have for leadership and teamwork.
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: Like I can't say enough about my time in that
• 30:26
  Speaker 7: room with those guys.
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Coach, I really appreciate the time. I know you're underwater.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: You know, we got a couple couple guys've been talking
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: with that got new jobs, and so they all say
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: the same thing, like they have five hundred text messages
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: and so to cut out fifteen twenty minutes, I really
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: appreciate it. Hope you have a great offseason and good
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: luck next season.
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: Coach, appreciate it, Bobby, have a good one man Sey coach.
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: All right, that's it for us. We just want to
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: put up some new content. And talk to coach, which
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: was super cool for him to come on. Hope everybody
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: has a wonderful holiday too, man, and yeah, we'll see
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: you guys on the other side. I don't I don't
• 31:04
  Speaker 2: think we're gonna do any episodes between then because we'll
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: all be separate. Who knows, like a pop into the
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: room and maybe give a little analysis. I doubt it,
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: or you and I can just hop together at the
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: house at some point. Do you know how to even
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: load a podcast?
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: We can figure it out.
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: No, we can't.
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: We can just look for the upload button.
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: I'll end up loading it up onto Amy. Yeah, Caroline
• 31:28
  Speaker 2: Hobby's got a sports podcast up on her feed. Thank
