- 0:58season in the episode, and who was doing Doing what?
- 1:00And now they're like that's the question and then I'm doing
- 1:06everything basically. Yes I'm glad.
- 1:15My face is not what it is. With the support of you all,
- 1:24obviously we keep this thing going to date.
- 1:28We've only missed one. Yeah, we only missed one, we've
- 1:33had maybe some cast members not going on, and I think we've got
- 1:38a really good track record for 43 years.
- 1:41We picked up a member. So, from what I understand, the
- 1:47governor and I don't know what Lamar is today or who Lamar is
- 1:52today but they would have conversations continually like
- 1:55offline announced. I think any of us.
- 1:58So whenever baby cry, Was boring.
- 2:01It was seamless going to bring him in and then he it works.
- 2:06So we just so I don't know, do you?
- 2:43Thank you so much. We've managed to free time zone
- 2:46changes, whatever is necessary to make sure that you do the
- 2:51show. We're going to show you guys
- 2:54because we really want to see the end of the day.
- 3:00I think it's it's become a labor of love a long time ago.
- 3:04And I don't think we don't know what to do.
- 3:42I appreciate you guys, it's always me.
- 3:52I can be intense. If it's just it's just one more
- 3:56time. I like every week at this point
- 3:57so I personally appreciate the engagement room audience and
- 4:02young, all those crazy questions even when we think we're done,
- 4:05those are the best topic so we appreciate it and keep doing it.
- 4:12For me, the thing I can say, is allowed to communicate with the
- 4:35masses. Their say that this is Volvo to
- 4:46prove that point. But the one thing I can say is
- 4:53or each other more about and that's this is an awesome to be
- 5:09able to talk about Things that we normally talk about ourselves
- 5:16and you don't know realize it is but, you know, I think for the
- 5:28whole world, so pleasure. Getting started, we saved Deion
- 6:23Sanders for you all live. Like we literally wrote it down
- 6:27for last week and everyone said, no, no, we got to get everybody
- 6:30involved. So this is how we want to do it.
- 6:33We're going to bring it out, talk about it, you will live
- 6:35interactions as well. So obviously we're not.
- 6:37See her jump and tables and beating people but like feel
- 6:41free to speak up because this interactive and Instagram best.
- 6:47So someone is. So when people have commented
- 6:50already, so, um, but so what what was her with the panel and
- 6:55then your hands like this just stay Saying, yes.
- 7:19Yes. I just don't get it.
- 7:55The brand a job for another job. With it.
- 8:01He took a job that nobody thought he was to continue,
- 8:05please right away because of that.
- 8:16Right. And you know what?
- 8:49Like that's the part. I can't ever wrap my brain
- 8:53around, because You did more for HBCU for all within anybody
- 9:01other than Eddie Robinson and he it is simply doing that in his
- 9:09exit to come around. Let's conclude right there
- 9:13attention. Right.
- 9:20And so, you know what, I'll give him credit for.
- 9:23We're not absolutely in the business rating Jackson for the
- 9:29way they treated him, right? Look really, really, really
- 9:37silly here on the side that, you know, did he sell out right?
- 9:42Because when the back start coming out, okay?
- 9:45None of us would think they had job where a lot of almost
- 10:34We will reveal them, you know, and they're holding them.
- 10:39And when the word started trickling out what he was going
- 10:44to take the Colorado, how many of us
- 11:55This is one man is done, it's not not equate.
- 12:00That so you know, when we think about people that are saying
- 12:39so, so,
- 13:29Since he stepped into the music or statement.
- 13:35He has always been the definition of a self promoter.
- 13:40He is the best self promoter of sorts, maybe has ever seen.
- 13:47I would have taken the Colorado job and everybody else in this
- 13:50room will taking that job giving Financial dynamics of it, so he
- 13:54is not acceptable. He is not wrong for taking the
- 13:57job, but this overwhelming. Just he's done.
- 14:02No wrong. He's just
- 14:30Stelling overselling over-promising.
- 14:33And ultimately did it mean for your own good.
- 14:36Personal reasons, you don't get to have it on both ends.
- 14:41It's The other nerve Dion's presence in sort and college
- 14:47coaching is Tide, that lifts all boats from that coaches bullshit
- 14:56celebrity is entry into this business is not going to be
- 15:00anybody else's black reality in this world, his promotion to
- 15:04Colorado, relay happens nothing and nobody else has that
- 15:07promotion in this sport. Dion celebrity privileges much
- 15:10closer was like privilege on how that hurts.
- 15:12I think it ain't they can see. So I'm happy.
- 15:50He has every advantage in front of him, his fight and getting
- 15:55this has not been hard. He's been getting everything all
- 15:59opens the whole time. I wish that was the case for all
- 16:03of us. So I'm a fan of Dion's handed
- 16:07waiting so long and if you think that the people in Jackson in
- 16:12the kids, the ones that he said y'all this is good enough.
- 16:17This is better than those other things.
- 16:20We believe we can do better than that.
- 16:22He's here with us about this. You just pull that up so you
- 16:35can't get it both ways. I hope, I hope he does.
- 16:39Well, I would like to see Colorado in the Pac-12.
- 16:43And it's, it's it's a genius move.
- 17:00Wow. Okay.
- 17:04So do not be upset with him because he
- 17:23made the woman, that is because this week, 1:00.
- 17:59Yes. I said that as you never fail.
- 19:06Oh yeah, we just did you walk off the baseball field and put
- 19:09the distracting me wanted to be someplace else.
- 20:08He jumped in and took the opportunity away from their
- 20:13work. because your celebrity status
- 21:10for a million, what you did a Jackson State was huge, it was
- 21:16really into situations over with they are women so much and we
- 22:18never get that job in the context again,
- 22:46but what I will say this, if he is as successful as obviously,
- 22:55probably, a lot of people believe he's going to be that
- 22:59will be, that will be I think we might want to hear
- 23:30from somebody at the end of the day, like, I just don't feel how
- 23:36I don't be bad. And here's why, because Dianna
- 23:42suspicions, all right, if he fails, he's gonna write black.
- 23:49But like the one pass that I will say, yes, because I will
- 23:53say this, we're going on, ask the being a culture.
- 24:36It was just like, I don't believe that all they would.
- 25:07In the world because of as you mentioned his Superstar status,
- 25:13you got different rules. And Dianna is
- 25:57the TV Market that exists. Sure.
- 26:49You just want me to say I literally said the opposite.
- 27:49Big something that's a big shadow of myself.
- 28:06I've seen that happen, sir. when you bring in some big
- 28:24because I'ma tell you, Alexa better times, they're
- 28:51playing against that's recruiting me.
- 28:56This is me. This is a convenient recruiter
- 28:59and then let's be real. We all need.
- 29:04So don't get it twisted legal, he can't just drink.
- 29:35I don't believe you.
- 29:49Giving up in the west where they see see here.
- 29:52This is Maddie, I don't care the
- 30:13transport people to you. Brought 40 people do exactly.
- 30:49Lot as now the hood Dragon Fields I'm benefiting from it.
- 30:53Well thank you go. That's that's mine.
- 30:59Okay. Indians coming to flexible they
- 31:02can be true. Dianna has always been.
- 31:05So the man came into this world where we are.
- 31:09You looking individual universities to
- 31:26create a sustainability model based off of what does impact he
- 31:30has children. We're trying to improve our
- 31:51facilities. Just like now celebrity status
- 31:58and the pocket. They have we came with you.
- 32:00Don't afford to donate Part of Yourself will
- 32:39type of, About what voltage is there?
- 33:02Some of you would have seen it. I don't know.
- 33:16You know, government. if I had known
- 34:01so I believe, Involved.
- 34:38You do not show up to practice, you did not grow up and cd2,
- 34:54okay? Now, with the fact that we have
- 35:00such, but we have other ways of communicating with some of us
- 35:08All of us at some point. You.
- 35:42All right, so it is well. Imagination.
- 37:05Which is completely certain medical colleges.
- 37:08Not the case. I think it should be addressed.
- 37:15I don't know. Just what I like school and said
- 38:17it to me. I don't know if I want my
- 38:21athlete with you guys. I hear you don't want to listen
- 38:24to my high school coach wants taking.
- 38:27I'm like you're right, you know, you talk.
- 39:49Always. if it's
- 40:33going to spend time, I feel like you always should be respectful
- 40:43because all of the people have They didn't see this young
- 40:48person so they are a little different but anybody but I
- 40:55don't know about my time is precious and I want to win.
- 41:01So if I am recruiting trust in the Baseball World of
- 41:07recruiting, In the first incident was the stakeholders
- 41:17are and who is going to be our last person that this young man
- 41:23or female. Because I want to make sure that
- 41:38all stakeholders. The person going to get, that's
- 41:48the one I want. I don't think anybody from the
- 42:22process time is money, figure out who the stakeholders are.
- 42:34I agree. And so Lucius.
- 42:39It is man, with all the things, you all know, we all know the
- 43:01right now. Take pieces of information.
- 43:17So if I know it goes to high school Hoops.
- 43:22Is that way. I'm just doing that in today's
- 43:29world. And in today's world, there are
- 43:32so many Different ways to connect two athletes.
- 43:37You don't need the high school coach, but you should show them
- 43:42the proper respect until they show you disrespect.
- 43:45And at that point, our the and I'm very efficient at going
- 43:51around them. If that's have it needs to be
- 43:52done, same for the club, people, same for the parent.
- 43:57I look at all this time. I want to meet the people in
- 44:01compliance. Try to find the answers.
- 44:03Now Roblox. So you're one of these people,
- 44:06this time, block, whatever I'm going around.
- 44:55Or really just searching on roof.
- 44:58So if you don't have the mental emotional, you know, bandwidth
- 45:03of flexibility, there are different hats, all different
- 45:05and figure out who's calling the shots.
- 45:10You're going to have less accessory.
- 45:12So I got no problem. I'd step aside step into being
- 46:17Actually over here goes there. If not who
- 47:18So, where were we? My life is really what he make,
- 48:23a difference trying to fix me. Manager.
- 49:20Yeah, 12 years. That's how I met coach Ryan.
- 49:26He got three women ladies. The only thing they say about as
- 49:30far as high school coach because what I've had what I had
- 49:35happened before that I was wearing
- 50:40And start all over time with each other.
- 51:38You know, you know. Numbers.
- 52:38It's not going to work. I have another file.
- 52:44I'm sorry it's just it's just which is why I'm calling you.
- 52:57So am I going? Let me say this as a former at
- 53:15one point and I really, really mean that I keep seeing that
- 53:19happening over time. The kind of There's nothing
- 53:23worse. You can do as a club or a high
- 53:25school coach. Try to use your hot athletes
- 53:28with the too long. That is the butter disrespectful
- 53:32thing you can do. And when I had to deliver 12
- 53:36regular in high school, back in the day, I had college coaches
- 53:42hopes. We really just want to get in
- 53:43the house now and then a, and they're trying to offer as if I
- 53:48would They trying to you need, those movies are going to try to
- 53:55use you. If your high school coach, you
- 53:57should not be on your trying to use these children waiting Yours
- 54:01by the way. So to boost your career.
- 54:04That's not how that works. Do your jobs make the right,
- 54:08connections me, right people. And eventually if it did add
- 54:12people to take notice something, you know, an opportunity
- 54:15somewhere. But to try to do that one-on-one
- 54:17exchange, that quid pro quo get yourself home, that's bullshit.
- 55:26I have to. Next.
- 56:33I think that is where we get the term asshole.
- 56:37Coaches, is when they do this, they free recruit before us.
- 56:43Like you don't get to decide if my program are not good enough
- 56:48for the key, Junior. Well, I got all right.
- 56:57He's a coach in the musical. The coach has decided, which
- 57:31level of kids and program, you can talk to me.
- 57:44Let's be clear. Like, I coached at the high
- 57:47school level and I coached it the same kids from the steam
- 58:01level programs, every where I was and look and I roll
- 58:33This kid is, do you understand like Michigan?
- 58:51You're giving me is that our media that already in your lungs
- 58:54to these kids like don't do that because the, because the best
- 58:58kid may actually mother best with me.
- 59:00This kid may need to be the best thing about the whole school,
- 59:05right? And you're not me, what would
- 59:07you say? I really wish they were getting
- 1:00:18in contact with objects that sometimes they would even you
- 1:00:22don't want to ask. That kids not going to stay in
- 1:01:33the Big Ten kids SEC. Can I just said very glibly,
- 1:01:37recluse base. You understand it there's pieces
- 1:01:48to be really good and there's your other kids at the end.
- 1:02:59Who do you know that's just how many of us some point, stop
- 1:03:19it. And this is because that I think
- 1:03:28you need to talk to me almost never see.
- 1:04:32High school girls from there. Colter is more than any coach
- 1:05:13that includes you. The state-of-the-state.
- 1:05:28Yeah, it doesn't matter where I am not right.
- 1:05:31This is not the one who we are and you know, I cannot find one
- 1:05:38really from You know, this, right?
- 1:07:28We will see about the applicants ability to do whatever, you
- 1:07:42know. If there's a, you know,
- 1:08:31So that means, you know what the religion is.
- 1:08:37Like I said, this is the whole Shadow seriously.
- 1:09:11I like efficiency. Let me emails are giving her
- 1:09:14day. I don't want to rehab her those,
- 1:09:17oh, please spare me the seven paragraphs all about their
- 1:09:22potential, your opinion about the potential cannot meaningless
- 1:09:26to me. I just want the facts.
- 1:09:30Give me their height and weight. Give me their academic profile.
- 1:09:33Give me they're fascinated formation and give me a real
- 1:09:36links. Real Results with between
- 1:09:38gauges. And if a team's your opinions,
- 1:09:41I'll need them. I'll get that lie just give me
- 1:09:45the facts. Missile system.
- 1:10:05Guess what? Parking brake down.
- 1:10:59Oakland four years later. It didn't work.
- 1:12:19Step 5. Relatively split will say slim.
- 1:12:34That's that's that's what she looks like.
- 1:12:36Okay, 12:37 2574 and an 18-10 long jump in 1810.
- 1:12:44One of those. Let's go over four point.
- 1:12:48Oh, GPA is not relevant in this context.
- 1:13:14Now why like why did I want this person?
- 1:13:20Because what is it that my son's install time because she had
- 1:13:23that dog. So, to be honest, I trusted my
- 1:13:39eyes and not what his point and did not become a formula.
- 1:13:46What was the wrong direction? You don't understand.
- 1:14:07The changing a lot and what it can do to me, that is what we
- 1:14:14get paid to do, right? We know what it's like to be
- 1:14:17alone. After about five years of
- 1:14:23college coaching, I realize what was warmer than you need?
- 1:14:27What was new military makeup? Now that works. so, if you
- 1:14:33didn't have the right, You're not coming like I don't
- 1:14:56ever call it. Looks like that, is it?
- 1:14:59No, it's not like that but I think that it might become like
- 1:15:02that. And it was from a high school
- 1:15:57coach, who said, but sometimes the college's big lead us and
- 1:16:02won't give us big boy. I know I think that was a slip.
- 1:16:05Sorry, big like us. Can't take that can't.
- 1:16:11Or don't take the kid that runs better than any kid in their
- 1:16:13program but Dress for the job you want?
- 1:18:09Provide. I want to my earring, there's a
- 1:18:16bunch of just because you might be faster than somebody who's
- 1:18:21not any good, you don't get all of them.
- 1:19:37Bodies are worth. And I just remember
- 1:19:53that that's that those to attract which is like magic.
- 1:20:37if I remember prefix, is this because you don't have a job
- 1:21:38To come back and get them. I drove myself the time and then
- 1:21:42we have to get on. I'm going to act unless just
- 1:21:44idiots about you. So have that child.

- 1:25:29last year. Many also thank you.
- 1:26:32I work in San Jose. The legacy of our program type
- 1:26:37exclusively comes men. And even though I love my
- 1:26:41greetings and words, cannot describe our out of closed and
- 1:26:52its history of context. One of the piles of laundry for
- 1:28:01this, you take is going into mr. Jacobs, going back, Well, I'm a
- 1:28:06genetics aspect of his coach, is all that you asked.
- 1:28:11Okay, so that is the definition of a first world problem.
- 1:28:20Is it is what I mean. That burning is something that's
- 1:29:11been going on. It's easy because I don't want
- 1:29:15to roll around, and I can tell you, I do not love, I love.
