  Speaker 1: You're going to get it here because this is the
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: news of the day. We'll be back with regular episode tomorrow.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: Welcome to the Skull Session Recruiting Podcast. I'm Kevin Noon.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I am sitting in for Mark Givler and I'm joined
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: by Tom Orr on this special commitment edition and evening show.
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: If you will night time depending on where you are
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: Aaron Thomas just commits to Ohio State, big offensive lineman
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: out out of Arizona. Tom, how are you doing on
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: tonight's show?
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: I'm good if you're sitting in for Mark, Does that
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: mean I'm sitting in for you?
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: Apparently? I'm sorry. I just couldn't.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: I couldn't do the show where I was sitting in
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: for Mark and I was sitting in as myself. I mean,
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: I guess I could have, but that would have required
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: a lot of editing. And there's an idea maybe one
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: day I'll do something like that, But that sounds like
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: a lot of work. But talk about doing a lot
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: of work, Ohio State has been doing a lot of
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: work in terms of its recruiting efforts, and Aaron Thomas,
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: a three star national offensive lineman number four thirty nine
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: in the nation according to the two four to seven
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Sports Composite, six seven, three hundred pounds out of Mountain
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Point High School. But I think that offensive line is
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: a difficult position to judge.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: So what do we know.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: We've seen top ten guys not pan out, and we've
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: seen top seven hundred guys go on to have tremendous careers.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. You can go through and you can sort
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: of look at, you know, Pat Elfline was a ranked
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: one thousand in the class or one thousand and two
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: in his class, and then you look at, I don't know,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: like Derek Morris, five star offensive tackle, can't possibly miss
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: his dad's record career, can't possibly miss and yeah, maybe
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: over two there. So yeah, it is a little bit
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: more unpredictable than a lot of spots. But that's just
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: because it's such a developmental position. But you know, you
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: can't coach height, that's one of those things. You can't
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: coach size. That's you know, if you can get a
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: guy who's six seven. All right, I'm intrigued, I'm listening.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: And here's the thing. This is not a make or
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: break thing where well, if he doesn't if he doesn't
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: hit and turn into a you know, really elite tackle,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: they're doomed like that. This is They've got four offensive
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: linemen in this class now, and we just saw recently
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Sam Greer, offensive tackle, who I think is rated as
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: a four star in most places. He just went in
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: and really was like the dominant player one of the
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: rivals camp. So you may see his numbers and ratings
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: tick up a little bit where you know, now, this
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: is this is just a little bit of icing on
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: the cake. This is you know, this is potentially going
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: to be a really solid, pretty deep offensive line class,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: which for Tyler Tyler Bowen's first year, I you know this,
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: this seems like this is going about the way that
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Ryan Day would have wanted it to go.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: And we'll get into all of the what does this
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: mean for Ohio State here in a second. But let's
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: let's pop on his footage and we'll take a look here.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: And you can see him out there at the edge,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: and I wonder which guy is I don't I don't
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: think you need to put the triangle or the little
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: you know, wait for it or whatever these guys put
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: on their huddle for their highlights. I mean, he it's
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: pretty obvious who he is. I mean, he is the
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: left tackle. Not many schools, unless your Lakewood Saint Ed's
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: are sitting with a bunch of six to seven guys
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: on their offensive line, you're generally going to put your
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: best guy out at tackle.
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: And there's a lot to like here.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: And now, no Phoenix Arizona may not be you know,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: he may it may not be Saint Thomas Aquinas down
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: in Florida, or it may not be Duncanville in Texas,
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: but it is still very good competition out there. And
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: he's you know, he's pushing these guys around like, you know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: like they're you know, they're they're rag dolls at this point.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if you like pancakes, boy, this is a great
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: This this whole reel is basically I hop it is.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: Hey, we want some pancakes.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: He looks I've heard that somewhere before. He looks like
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: someone who is dominating, physically dominating the people across from him.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: And you know, yeah, you can, you can have the
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: you know, level of competition conversation. And obviously it's a
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: highlight reel. So the highlight reel is all you know,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: you see the players or they it's nothing but them
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: scoring touchdowns for the skill guys. But yeah, this is
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: what a physically dominant offensive lineman's highlight reel should look like.
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: And you know, again at six foot seven, I don't know,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: I have not seen his wingspan measurement, but if you're
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: six foot seven, you're going to have the wingspan to
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: you know, potentially you know, protect that edge and be
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: able to be able to have a little bit more
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: reach around the edge all of that stuff. You know,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: that's that checks a lot of the boxes for you.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: And you know, I haven't seen any we back in
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: the day camps used to do all these measurements and
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: they were they were verified because hey, we're there and
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: we're measuring their wingspan and everything else. We've really gotten
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: away from that, and I think that that's one thing
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: that you know, maybe maybe we've taken a little bit
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: of a step backwards there. Again, we we we don't
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: know what a kid really is in terms of height
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: or whatever until they get to the NFL scouting combine.
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: And then we learned that the six seven kid was really,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: you know, just two little people stacked on each other
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: wearing a trench coat or something like that. How's that
• 5:49
  Speaker 2: for a little imagery right there. But you know, this
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: was this was a recruitment that kind of you know,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: went positive and then went negative. Ohio State had him
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: on campus, he had a May thirtieth official visit. Everything
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: seemed really good there, but then Texas, A and M
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: had the last round of visits on the twentieth, and
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: some of the national types started selling on Ohio State's
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: chances there, and it wasn't really until kind of the
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: morning of his announcement today. If you're watching this as
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: the story is fresh, that things kind of swung back.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: But you know, a lot of credit to Tyler Bowen
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: for going out and I think we're seeing Ohio State
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: casting a wider net. I think we saw in the
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: past Ohio State really would only go after ten linemen
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: for four spots. That's not the case now. Twenty twenty
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: seven is even different because he has a full cycle
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: to work with these guys, and I mean he's just
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: gone on and offering spree and I think that I
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: think that's going to make Ohio State fans a lot
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: happier because so often Ohio State was getting pinned in
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: on just a couple of guys and then when you miss,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: then what the hell happens? Then you get Evan Blankenship,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: who is a better guitar player and he was an
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: offensive liignment.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you've sort of noticed. This is a
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: little like the Sherlock Holmes as the dog that doesn't bark. Everyone.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: All the Ohio State fans on our board and you know,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: on Twitter and everywhere else everyone is really worried about
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the defensive line recruiting and are they offering enough guys
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: and other prioritizing enough guys and they got to get
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: numbers this class. And for years and years, I mean
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: really most of Justin Fry's time at Ohio State and
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: sort of towards the end of the Greg Greg'stadwara time
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: at Ohio State, you heard the same the same concerns
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: about the offensive line. And you know, yeah, you got
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: the elite guys. You got your Donovan Jackson, you got
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: your Paris Johnson, you got you know, some of the
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: other guys, your Luke Montgomery's, your Tager Shabolas. But you know,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: the classes were not deep enough and they weren't offering
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: enough guys, and they weren't taking enough guys, and they
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: weren't you know, they weren't getting commitments from enough guys.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: And you haven't heard any of that this year. Everyone
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: is just sort of kind of everyone's just sort of
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: like line right now with the offensive line recruiting, which
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: is so abnormal for Ohio State that it really is
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: a testament to Tyler Bowen and I think a little
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: bit of a different approach, but Also, you know, he's
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: not just filling the class with guys who are just
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: you know, well, you know, we need someone to fill
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: the space. These are guys with a legitimate chance to
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: play at Ohio State and to contribute at Ohio State,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: and in some cases probably a lot more than that.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I think I think Tyler Bowen and his
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: whole you know, his whole staff where it's Tyler Bowen,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: and Tyler Bowen is the guy whose name is sort
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: of at the top of the letterhead and the offensive
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: line department. But they have brought in a really deep
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: staff and they've brought in several other guys who have,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: you know, extensive coaching experience at the position where you're
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: getting some different approaches in there, you're getting some different
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: teaching techniques in there, and the feedback on that has
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: all been very positive so far. And then you know,
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: the feedback on Tyler Bowen when Ohio State hired him,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: it was who was at Landen Tegwall, It was it
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: was one of the one of the Penn State offensive linemen.
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: Who talked about exactly who it was.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: Yet yeah, well yeah, I talked about how how just
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: what a dynamic recruiter Tyler Bowen was, and how what
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: a great people person Tyler Bowen was. You know, Justin
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Frye had a great run as Ohio States offensive line
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: coach and I think, you know, right at the end
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: of his tenure, I think people sort of came to
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: appreciate boy. He was a really good developer. He wasn't
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: always the most dynamic person on the recruiting trail. I
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: think you're now with the new approach they've got where
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: they've got multiple guys in that room in terms of
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: the coaching staff. You've got the guys who are the teachers,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: You've got the guys who are the developers, but you
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: also have Tyler Bowen, who is that kind of dynamic personality,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: really approachable, really energetic, and I think someone who people
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: really kind of connect with.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: You know, I want to talk about Ohio State's class
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: because it's got this is four lineman two out of Ohio,
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: two out of Arizona. We're going to talk about Arizona first.
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: He joins Tucker Smith, who is the number ten player
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: in Arizona, where where Aaron Thomas is the number five
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: UH player out of the state of Arizona. For the
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: top ten players in Arizona according to two four to
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: seven Sports, are.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: On the offensive line.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: So you know, I think they are going to be
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: some people that are going to be like who when
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: it comes to Aaron Thomas, but you know he is
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: rated higher than Tucker Smith. Tucker Smith is an interior
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: offensive linement six five two eighty, whereas Aaron Thomas, there's
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: no question that his you know, his position should be
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: offensive tackle. I mean, could you slide him inside? We've
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: seen the six seven guard at Ohio State before. I
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: don't necessarily know if I if I liked really seeing
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: some of those guys on the inside, you weren't going
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: to want to play Dwan Jones on the inside. But
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: sometimes you just need to get guys on the field.
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: But you know, Ohio State going where the talent is
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: and getting a couple of guys out of the state
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: of Arizona to couple with Ohio where maybe with the
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: coaching change going from Justin Fry to Tyler Bowen, there
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: was a little bit of a of a disconnect and
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: a couple of Ohioans did get away, but Ohio State
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: still sitting obviously with offensive linemen like Sam Grier that
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: you know, Tom talked about extensively and Max Riley.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a couple of good in state prospects, and you
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: know you've got to that is always the state of
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: Ohio is always kind of the foundation of any good
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Ohio State recruiting class. In Ohio State, you know, the
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: state of Ohio in terms of high school football players,
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: You're not necessarily going to get the most dynamic wide receivers.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: You're getting a lot of those guys out of the
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: South Florida Express rather than the you know, Portsmouth Express,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: the South Ohio Express there is there is no South
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Ohio Express for a reason. You're getting a lot of
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: your skill guys out of the South. You're getting a
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: lot of your interior defensive linemen kind of guys out
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: of Georgia and places like that. But the state of Ohio,
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: it produces linebackers, it produces safeties, it produces offensive linemen.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: You get a lot of talent out of the state there,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: and Ohio State has done a pretty good job capitalizing.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to get every guy, but if you
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: can build your offensive line class around a couple really
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: good in state prospects and then you go somewhere else,
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: and you go try you know, you go bring in,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: you take your shoot, you know, you shoot your shots
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: on the national guys. But you also, as Kevin said earlier,
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: you're casting a wider net and you're just trying to
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: find guys who you think might be a good fit.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: I don't think you're going to see a six seven
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: guy sliding inside to guard and you know that's okay.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: It does feel like you're going to kind of have
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: to make a decision between you can have a you know,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: six foot or a you know, air quote six foot
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: quarterback or you know, you can have a six seven
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: offensive lineman but you know, interior guy, but you probably
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: can't have both. You got to kind of make a
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: little bit of a choice there. Tavian Saint Clair. You know,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: if this is you know, someone who's playing offensive line
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: in front of Tavian Saint Clair in a few years.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: You know, the height is not a concern there, Tavian
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Saint Clair is I think every bit of six three
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: or six four, So not really a concern there. But
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: it just, you know, it's just one of those things
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: you kind of have to think about how all the
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: different pieces fit together. But yeah, between you know, between
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: these guys, you know, are they going to go for
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: one more?
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: Do?
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: Do you try and add another body in there?
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: You may. That's exactly what I wanted to talk about.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: And there are more names than I'm going to mention,
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: but I'm going to mention some of the big names,
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: and Ohio State certainly doesn't lead in all these. Felix
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: Ojo is one that you're going to talk about. He
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: is kind of your your you know, gold standard left tackle.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, that would be a great problem for Ohio
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: State to have having to maybe kick this kid to
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: right tackle. At that point, you got Deron Parks, who
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: was formerly out of the hurricane West Virginia. He's now
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: in Florida, he's still considering Ohio State. And then on
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: the interior line, Drew Evers, Darius Gray. Those are other
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: guys that you're going to talk about. And I think
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: Drew Evers, Ohio State and SMU with with A and M,
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: those seem to be the top three player or top
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: three players in his recruitment. Darius Gray is taking like
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: eleven thousand official visits. I mean, Ohio State had a
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: very good be with them, but that one may be
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: a tough pull. I already kind of talked about Felix
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Ojoe Ohio State, Texas probably staying home at Texas and
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: then Deron Parks. Twelve months ago, I would have said
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: he absolutely, unequivocally ends up at Ohio State. At Ohio State. Now,
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: you know, I'm not sure, but you know what you
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: need to do. You probably need to stick stick here
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: with Buckeye Huddle and check out everything that that Mark
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: and Burm have in terms of recruiting, because you know,
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: they probably know better than I do of what's going
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: on there, because it's there's a long way to go
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: between now a national signing day.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah for sure, And there's I mean, there are plenty
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: of twists and turns and all of these things. I
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: mean we you know, forty eight hours ago, everyone was
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: sort of expecting this one to end up with a
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Texas A and M commitment potentially, and now here we are,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: and there have been some that have gone the other direction.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: So they have plenty of twists and turns in all
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: these recruitments. But you know, I think one of the
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: big takeaways for me here is this Ohio State class.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Right now. You mentioned a bunch of the other guys,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: those are at this point kind of nice to have.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: They're not necessarily boy, this is a make or break
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: thing that they get, you know, if they don't get
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: one of these guys, oh boy, this is this class
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: is in trouble. They've got I think they've got a
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: nice solid offensive line class. And if you can add
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: another guy, maybe two, great, But you're already you're already
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: now at a spot where this feels like a really
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: solid offensive line class on the whole, and it can,
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: you know, potentially get potentially get better. But you should
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: probably be feeling pretty decent about where this offensive line
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: recruiting class is at the moment.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: Let's not forget Ohio State only took three offensive lineman
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: last secle with Carter Low, Jake Cook, and Javon McFadden.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: So you know, sitting at for at this point is
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: already good. Now you've got to sign him. You gotta
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: sign him. I don't think I don't think they're losing Greer.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: I don't think you're losing Riley, and I think that
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: they've done a good job in recruiting these Arizona guys.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: But you know you're going to keep pushing. Does Ohio
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: State take and continue to take swings at the Ohioans
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: that kind of got away. You're going to have to
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: just kind of stick around and find out. But you know,
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: I want to thank everybody for watching us here on
• 15:59

• 16:01

• 16:06

• 16:13
  Speaker 1: drama and all sorts of different position groups moving forward
