- 3:34Speaker 4: So between radio segments like there's this thing about a
- 3:37Speaker 4: potential execut order. So it's like, what's going on, what's
- 3:39Speaker 4: going on? And between radio segments, I'm trying to explain
- 3:42Speaker 4: what is or what's not real.
- 3:44Speaker 5: Hey, we're not worried about that right now.
- 3:45Speaker 4: The airplane mode's on them all yours.
- 3:47Speaker 5: Absolutely.
- 3:48Speaker 3: When you're picking out your outfit and you're going through
- 3:51Speaker 3: the color choices, are you like, I want to wear the.
- 3:54Speaker 5: Sec SEC color.
- 3:56Speaker 3: How many times have you gone to put on an
- 3:58Speaker 3: outfit for like a different day.
- 4:00Speaker 5: When you're up there on the podium, you're like, you
- 4:01Speaker 5: can't do it. Too much orange?
- 4:04Speaker 4: That has happened, you know. When we used to have
- 4:06Speaker 4: the dinner at our championship game, our Legends dinner, I
- 4:11Speaker 4: wore a green tie, ninety eight percent green tie. It
- 4:15Speaker 4: was an Auburn and Georgia game, and embedded in it
- 4:18Speaker 4: were little flecks of orange. Yeah, and Georgia's president came
- 4:23Speaker 4: to me, looked at my tie and looked at me
- 4:24Speaker 4: and said, nicely, you wear some Auburn colors. Tonight I
- 4:27Speaker 4: was in I was doing a dedication to historical sign
- 4:30Speaker 4: I had a pair of I had a blue suit
- 4:32Speaker 4: on a pair of blue shoes, you have to match
- 4:34Speaker 4: wing tip blue shoes. I got out of the car.
- 4:36Speaker 4: Mississippi State President looked at me and said, nicely, wear
- 4:38Speaker 4: your old missuit to this today all miss shoes actually,
- 4:42Speaker 4: so it actually is real and I do have to
- 4:44Speaker 4: think about it, and I'm deep enough into it. Like
- 4:47Speaker 4: the green tie, I could get the Kentucky blue, but
- 4:50Speaker 4: Mark's not till Tomorrow's till tomorrow.
- 4:52Speaker 3: That's right, You're you're pretty safe. You're always safe actually
- 4:55Speaker 3: with green, that green's always the and I go blue and.
- 4:58Speaker 4: Blue and gold, blue and yellow because that's our conference
- 5:01Speaker 4: logo for sure. So that's I determined that to be safe.
- 5:05Speaker 5: Well, Commission, I know you're a big baseball fan, so
- 5:07Speaker 5: LSU's we're on a baton rouge, so let's do we
- 5:09Speaker 5: just made this run.
- 5:10Speaker 4: In the College World Series.
- 5:11Speaker 5: And so do you feel safe when an SEC team
- 5:15Speaker 5: is playing? So we played Coast of Carolina when they're
- 5:17Speaker 5: playing somebody outside, do you feel safe maybe wearing a
- 5:19Speaker 5: little purple on a situation like that?
- 5:22Speaker 4: Sometimes I just don't have a lot Like Okay, people
- 5:25Speaker 4: will say, well, you've got a bunch of crimson, or
- 5:27Speaker 4: you've got a bunch of purple or you've got a bunch.
- 5:29Speaker 4: I just don't have those colors because I have a
- 5:32Speaker 4: lot of green. I have a lot of green golf shirts.
- 5:34Speaker 4: So when I was in in Omaha, I had two
- 5:39Speaker 4: green golf shirts ready to go, but then Coast of
- 5:41Speaker 4: Carolina's teals, so I was in the black and gray mode.
- 5:45Speaker 4: I did have a fun conversation money out with Paul Skeens.
- 5:48Speaker 4: He was, you know, kind of hanging out during the
- 5:51Speaker 4: home run during about him watching. And last year I
- 5:55Speaker 4: was right behind him when we were talking about playing
- 5:57Speaker 4: at Hoover and he's like he was right to add
- 5:59Speaker 4: a bad Hoover and and you know, winning it a
- 6:02Speaker 4: couple of years ago. It's fun for him. So I'll
- 6:05Speaker 4: give you another example. Ole Mississippi or excuse me, Mississippi
- 6:08Speaker 4: State Vanderbilt were playing it's Game three. I had packed
- 6:12Speaker 4: two weeks before because this was like my third destination,
- 6:16Speaker 4: and I had two green shirts and a black and
- 6:18Speaker 4: white striped shirt. Yep, so I wore the green shirts
- 6:21Speaker 4: early Vanderbilt Missippi State. No conflict there. I had a
- 6:25Speaker 4: black and white stripe SEC logo golf shirt and I
- 6:28Speaker 4: walked into misissipp State President's box and by the way
- 6:32Speaker 4: Mississippi State will wear black uniforms. Now you too, It's
- 6:35Speaker 4: like nice you wear you Vanderbilt shirt. So there's no
- 6:39Speaker 4: there's more of that than you understand.
- 6:41Speaker 5: Oh, one hundred percent.
- 6:42Speaker 3: There is any any good shows, concerts that we've been to, Like,
- 6:47Speaker 3: I know who your favorite band is. I know it
- 6:49Speaker 3: is You two, But anything that you've seen here in
- 6:51Speaker 3: this offseason.
- 6:52Speaker 4: They haven't know You two hasn't been out in a while.
- 6:54Speaker 4: Bono just did this big interview where he talked about
- 6:57Speaker 4: new music and teased like they come back on the road.
- 7:01Speaker 4: So I'm hopefully. I saw Zach Brown in Nashville early April.
- 7:05Speaker 4: There's a new venue called the Pinnacle. You wouldn't take
- 7:08Speaker 4: the cashield you need a new music venue. It's right
- 7:10Speaker 4: around from the Grand Hiot where we did media days
- 7:12Speaker 4: two years ago. Like four thousand people's great sight lines,
- 7:15Speaker 4: great sound. Four thousand people for Zach Brown concert that
- 7:19Speaker 4: I mean just intimate, really great feel. And then we
- 7:22Speaker 4: went and saw the Eagles at the Sphere April. That
- 7:25Speaker 4: was April twelfth, and so that was my second visit
- 7:28Speaker 4: to the Sphere. Zach Brown just announced Sphere dates for December. Yeah,
- 7:33Speaker 4: have you been to the Sphere. I have, Yeah, which one?
- 7:36Speaker 4: Which what'd you see? Yeah?
- 7:38Speaker 5: We went and saw Grateful Dead.
- 7:40Speaker 4: Yeah, so I didn't I got invitations in.
- 7:43Speaker 5: The our Deading Company, I guess is what it would
- 7:45Speaker 5: have been.
- 7:46Speaker 6: I'm not in that group. I was told I should go.
- 7:48Speaker 6: The twstools are unbelievable. It's unbelievable. I've been told, like,
- 7:51Speaker 6: you can go see whatever show. It doesn't really matter
- 7:53Speaker 6: if like if you're a fan of that, it's just
- 7:55Speaker 6: you need to go see the spectacle that is a sphere.
- 7:58Speaker 4: I agree, And every time somebody does something it's like
- 8:01Speaker 4: next level. Like I saw some of the Kenny Chesney video,
- 8:04Speaker 4: like he did running through the tee on the Sphere.
- 8:06Speaker 4: I would love to have seen that, just to that experience.
- 8:10Speaker 4: We should have like all of our like kickoff our introductions,
- 8:14Speaker 4: when Joe Burrow ran out with the Jersey his last
- 8:18Speaker 4: home games, all.
- 8:20Speaker 3: The things that go into having a concert there. So
- 8:22Speaker 3: I had Kenny down at the super Bowl. We had
- 8:25Speaker 3: him on super Bowl Radio and he was telling me
- 8:28Speaker 3: all air, like all the different things that go into
- 8:31Speaker 3: just playing one show there because of all the different elements.
- 8:34Speaker 3: He's like, and you want to use them all, but
- 8:36Speaker 3: you don't want to like change who you are in
- 8:38Speaker 3: your concert. But he's like, but you get in all
- 8:39Speaker 3: these cool tools, you got to use them.
- 8:41Speaker 4: So right in Burbank, next to the airport there's a Marriott,
- 8:46Speaker 4: there's a little sphere that's the production facility and all
- 8:49Speaker 4: the production goes through there. We actually thought the first
- 8:52Speaker 4: year of the sphere of doing advertising we were going
- 8:55Speaker 4: to sixteen. It was we were fourteen. The next year
- 8:58Speaker 4: we're going to sixteen. We found out what a cost
- 9:01Speaker 4: to buy space on the sphere, which was one level,
- 9:04Speaker 4: and then the production costs was next level. So we
- 9:08Speaker 4: let the Smiley Face occupy the sphere and then Monday
- 9:11Speaker 4: we have tickets to see in Birmingham there's a new Amphitheater.
- 9:15Speaker 4: So it's total so eighties absolutely, yeah, and Men at
- 9:21Speaker 4: Work those are the book ends. So Colin hay uh
- 9:25Speaker 4: Land down under and in between his Christopher Cross. So
- 9:28Speaker 4: the yacht rock is for my wife and absolutely I'd
- 9:31Speaker 4: go to that. Yeah, we'll see.
- 9:33Speaker 5: Wait, it's mint at work. The ban sayings that we
- 9:36Speaker 5: can dance it. No, that's the safety daft. That was
- 9:40Speaker 5: not meant ball by me. What you went for it?
- 9:45Speaker 4: That was what's the if you look at we'll have
- 9:47Speaker 4: that lyric going through.
- 9:49Speaker 5: That's an earworm for sure. What's look back on all
- 9:54Speaker 5: the concerts' men to what's that one concert in your
- 9:56Speaker 5: life that stands out?
- 9:57Speaker 4: Like man?
- 9:57Speaker 5: That was I'll always remember where I will what seed
- 10:00Speaker 5: was that?
- 10:01Speaker 4: I'll give you two? Can I give you two? Because
- 10:03Speaker 4: we were just there this. I'm from Central New York,
- 10:06Speaker 4: just west of Syracuse. Really nice little village on a lake.
- 10:11Speaker 4: But my dad when I was a kid, who would
- 10:13Speaker 4: go stock car racing, right, So my wife and I
- 10:16Speaker 4: were at Weed Sports Speedway. You'll probably never end up
- 10:19Speaker 4: a Weed Sports, Yeah, I don't think so. Seventy five
- 10:21Speaker 4: clap three point fifty eight Northeast dirt modified with sprint
- 10:25Speaker 4: cars thrown in. But we went to a Huey Lewis
- 10:28Speaker 4: in the News concert there at the eighty five, early
- 10:31Speaker 4: in our relationship. It was our first concert we went
- 10:34Speaker 4: to so that pops uh huh. And then Kathy and
- 10:37Speaker 4: I went to see you two in Dublin at Croke
- 10:39Speaker 4: Park in twenty seventeen to thirty. Yeah.
- 10:42Speaker 5: I would give a lot to go see Huey Lewis
- 10:44Speaker 5: and the News. In nineteen eighty five.
- 10:45Speaker 4: That was pretty cool.
- 10:46Speaker 3: I saw Huey Lewis the News in two thousand and four.
- 10:49Speaker 3: Wasn't the same Hugh Lewis. But you know, Brothers opened
- 10:51Speaker 3: up the.
- 10:52Speaker 4: First time I saw the Neville Brothers, So give some
- 10:54Speaker 4: New Orleans influence. They opened up. But you're at a
- 10:56Speaker 4: dirt track speedway on the clay. That stage it had
- 11:00Speaker 4: this you know, it's summer for the Rocketport. They had
- 11:03Speaker 4: this whole concert series, big names rolling through. Yeah, I
- 11:06Speaker 4: mean it sounds like it eighty five US News that
- 11:09Speaker 4: was sports, which is albums. Yeah, that is a great
- 11:13Speaker 4: l Yeah.
- 11:14Speaker 5: All right. So on Wednesdays we play would you rather?
- 11:17Speaker 4: Right?
- 11:18Speaker 3: And so since we had you, and we typically do
- 11:20Speaker 3: it around this time, but I'm just going to.
- 11:21Speaker 5: Give you one.
- 11:22Speaker 3: And it's involving SEC players. Again, we're not talking to
- 11:25Speaker 3: any of that other stuff here. Would you rather get
- 11:28Speaker 3: hit in the ribs by a Paul Skins fastball or
- 11:31Speaker 3: have to tackle Derreck Henry in the open field two
- 11:33Speaker 3: SEC guys.
- 11:37Speaker 4: I'd probably take the Derrick Henry thing.
- 11:39Speaker 7: He goes.
- 11:39Speaker 4: I think I could try and miss, and I would
- 11:43Speaker 4: The injury would be soft.
- 11:44Speaker 5: Yeah, you just die the other way On accident.
- 11:46Speaker 4: So this is a true story. As a freshman, I
- 11:48Speaker 4: was at a place called Maternal College, fall of eighty two. Uh,
- 11:53Speaker 4: Chuck Finley was part of the Northeast Louisiana University team.
- 11:57Speaker 4: We played them. Yeah, I never saw the baseball now
- 12:00Speaker 4: I was.
- 12:01Speaker 5: I was, But how long in the in the majors
- 12:03Speaker 5: at least over ten years?
- 12:05Speaker 4: Northeast Louisiana that year had Terry Matthews was on that team.
- 12:09Speaker 4: There was a third pitcher's name. I forget when people
- 12:11Speaker 4: tell me was better like now, they weren't in Omaha
- 12:14Speaker 4: because of the pitching up there, and Matthews went pitched
- 12:17Speaker 4: for the Rangers. Was a major League. But like there
- 12:20Speaker 4: was I never saw the baseball through. So if Skeen's
- 12:23Speaker 4: was up there and I got hitting the ribs, I
- 12:25Speaker 4: would see them wind up and I would not see anything,
- 12:28Speaker 4: and I'd feel this searing thing my side. So I
- 12:30Speaker 4: think the Derrick Henry thing. I'd see him and I'd
- 12:34Speaker 4: go low and probably just jump over me.
- 12:36Speaker 5: Yeah, that felt like it kind of like the face.
- 12:39Speaker 4: You're going to make. I had a friend. I had
- 12:41Speaker 4: a friend who was an author on a podcast. He
- 12:43Speaker 4: asked me, if I shoot it up to play a
- 12:47Speaker 4: football game. How long do you think i'd last? Right,
- 12:51Speaker 4: I said to him. I thought for just a couple
- 12:53Speaker 4: of sands, I said, I don't think you'd make it
- 12:54Speaker 4: out of the locker room actually putting on the equipment.
- 13:00Speaker 4: Judgment would be such like what am I doing?
- 13:02Speaker 3: Yeah, no question, matt commission, I know you got to go.
- 13:05Speaker 3: Hopefully we had, you know, gave you a chance to
- 13:07Speaker 3: take a couple of deep brass here and put on
- 13:09Speaker 3: airplane mode for a little bit.
- 13:10Speaker 4: The fact we didn't talk about three letters, and that's
- 13:13Speaker 4: right there, highly rewarding. There got the approved price for
- 13:17Speaker 4: next year. Well we can't get an extra second. We
- 13:19Speaker 4: can't promise for anybody else. But can I just stay
- 13:23Speaker 4: here and talk about this other stuff?
- 13:25Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 13:25Speaker 3: Yeah, I saw Catherine's grip shrink the other day. I'm
- 13:28Speaker 3: not going a minute longer, she said. It is time

- 15:55Speaker 3: Outside of the Aggies. Of course, you are here and
- 15:58Speaker 3: you'll do a great job covering it all week. Who's
- 16:00Speaker 3: most intriguing to you?
- 16:01Speaker 4: Like?
- 16:01Speaker 5: Who are some teams? As the players? Is the coaches?
- 16:03Speaker 4: What is it? You know?
- 16:08Speaker 8: I think, honestly, LSU is a really freaking intriguing team.
- 16:12Speaker 8: I think most teams in the conference are intriguing this
- 16:15Speaker 8: year because of the quarterback position. I mean, it's almost
- 16:20Speaker 8: like there are two buckets. It's these guys that are
- 16:23Speaker 8: going from year one to year two as starters, and
- 16:25Speaker 8: we all have to sit here and speculate and wonder
- 16:28Speaker 8: if it's your team, you hope, how big of that
- 16:31Speaker 8: jump do they make or their first year starters with
- 16:35Speaker 8: a lot of hype and build up, And so I
- 16:38Speaker 8: don't know if I remember. I've remembered a few years
- 16:42Speaker 8: where I've gone, Man, the quarterbacks in this league aren't
- 16:44Speaker 8: that great this year, But I don't know how much
- 16:47Speaker 8: I remember if I remember a year where there really
- 16:51Speaker 8: is a ton of potential across the board, but there's
- 16:55Speaker 8: also like you can't guarantee anything, Like y'all's guy. I
- 17:00Speaker 8: keep saying it, like I think when when I watch
- 17:02Speaker 8: him and Sellers or the two, like, when I watch him,
- 17:06Speaker 8: I feel the best about him. But then I you know,
- 17:09Speaker 8: I watched I was at the A and m LSU
- 17:11Speaker 8: game in the second half, I was in baton rouge
- 17:13Speaker 8: for LSU Bama. You know, I saw the would have
- 17:18Speaker 8: been picked six against South Carolina. But then I watch
- 17:21Speaker 8: him at the end of Ole Miss and I watch
- 17:23Speaker 8: him in a ball I watch him some of the
- 17:25Speaker 8: throws he makes, and the ability to see it is
- 17:30Speaker 8: it's better than anybody. And so he's the one to
- 17:33Speaker 8: me and us with the one of some of the.
- 17:35Speaker 2: Least questions about him.
- 17:37Speaker 8: But in a normal year, you go, no, he he's
- 17:39Speaker 8: got to prove it for LSU to become that playoff
- 17:43Speaker 8: team that everybody in Baton Rouge is open.
- 17:45Speaker 2: And you could say a lot of the same.
- 17:48Speaker 8: Just take that exact game and you say a lot
- 17:50Speaker 8: of the same about Marcel Reid. Sometimes he looked spectacular,
- 17:55Speaker 8: sometimes he looked like a guy that was starting for
- 17:57Speaker 8: the first time.
- 17:57Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I was going to bring up. But
- 17:59Speaker 5: we talked We've talked about out quarterbacks all week. We
- 18:01Speaker 5: got a couple of proven commodities that you know what
- 18:03Speaker 5: you're gonna get. You hope to see that improvement as well,
- 18:06Speaker 5: But you got a lot of question marks all over
- 18:08Speaker 5: the SEC. So this could be a really great quarterback
- 18:11Speaker 5: conference or it could be kind of a mediocre.
- 18:12Speaker 4: We just don't know.
- 18:13Speaker 5: We're gonna have some top heavy guys.
- 18:15Speaker 4: But one person name.
- 18:17Speaker 5: I haven't heard hardly at all this week is Marcel Ready.
- 18:20Speaker 5: And you know, I think he's a guy that has
- 18:23Speaker 5: the potential and certainly a skill set that makes it
- 18:26Speaker 5: could make him if he makes the right strikes, could
- 18:28Speaker 5: make him very dated, for like, and then you look
- 18:31Speaker 5: at it as why you know Texa and decided not
- 18:33Speaker 5: to bring him? Yep to media days, So you know,
- 18:36Speaker 5: what is there any you know, it's not a like
- 18:39Speaker 5: where there's smoke, there's fire situation, but like what kind
- 18:41Speaker 5: of strides do you see in that? And why do
- 18:43Speaker 5: you think the decision was made not to bring him?
- 18:45Speaker 8: I think as far as the decision knowing Mike Elko,
- 18:49Speaker 8: we put together our list or our staff, like just
- 18:52Speaker 8: in the office one day or at lunch, where like
- 18:54Speaker 8: who do you think will be?
- 18:55Speaker 2: We were before or.
- 18:56Speaker 8: Five of us were talking and Marcel was actually four
- 19:00Speaker 8: worth on my list.
- 19:01Speaker 2: You know, I thought he'd bring Torri and York. I
- 19:05Speaker 2: thought Trey.
- 19:06Speaker 8: Zoon who came last year and as a captain, I
- 19:08Speaker 8: just assumed he'd bring him back. He probably just figured
- 19:10Speaker 8: you've already done it once. And I thought armaj Reid Adams.
- 19:15Speaker 8: Actually the fourth.
- 19:16Speaker 2: Guy that I thought was a.
- 19:20Speaker 8: Defensive tackle by the name of Albert Regis who's just
- 19:22Speaker 8: kind of Elko puts a lot into those like.
- 19:27Speaker 2: It's your team, it's your team, it's your you know,
- 19:29Speaker 2: and a lot of that.
- 19:31Speaker 8: Captaincy will Lee was actually my fifth guy that I
- 19:34Speaker 8: thought he'd bring him. Will was probably the best player
- 19:38Speaker 8: on the A and M team this spring and also
- 19:40Speaker 8: most improved, so they probably rewarded him. I do think though,
- 19:46Speaker 8: with Marcel Reid, he's dangling that carrot for next year
- 19:49Speaker 8: and to say, hey, you're the starting quarterback, but you haven't.
- 19:54Speaker 8: You haven't gone out there and just proved it consistently
- 19:57Speaker 8: week to week to go. So yeah, I think in
- 19:58Speaker 8: a perfect world he'd have done that throughout the off
- 20:01Speaker 8: season to where you go, Man, this guy is just
- 20:03Speaker 8: he we can't go without him. But I also think,
- 20:06Speaker 8: knowing Elko, I would have put him fourth or fifth
- 20:09Speaker 8: on my list.
- 20:10Speaker 5: You can you see him making that that next step
- 20:12Speaker 5: as a quarter like a weekend, week out starter that
- 20:15Speaker 5: is going to be dangerous every week.
- 20:16Speaker 8: I do, you know, I think he's gonna make significant strides.
- 20:20Speaker 2: Not he can throw the ball.
- 20:22Speaker 8: You guys saw he can throw the football really well, but.
- 20:28Speaker 2: It's just that.
- 20:30Speaker 8: You know, Okay, the ball snapped, first thread, second lead,
- 20:34Speaker 8: go and a lot of times it's even the first lead, like, yeah,
- 20:36Speaker 8: this is gonna come open based on and you know
- 20:39Speaker 8: this as a quarterback and you've played with a million
- 20:41Speaker 8: of them. Marcel wasn't supposed to be playing last year.
- 20:45Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Know what year did not start? Year three or four?
- 20:49Speaker 4: Four?
- 20:49Speaker 8: Yeah, Marcel Connor Wigman was supposed to be the guy.
- 20:53Speaker 8: No One in August outside of probably Marcel, thought that
- 20:57Speaker 8: he was ready to be an SEC start quarterback. So
- 21:01Speaker 8: to me, there's a lot of positivity to watch and go, damn,
- 21:06Speaker 8: he did this, this, this, and this, and the games
- 21:08Speaker 8: where he struggled, what particularly were South Carolina and Texas well,
- 21:16Speaker 8: both of those I would say those were two of
- 21:19Speaker 8: the top three defenses in the SEC last year. So
- 21:23Speaker 8: I think when that running game wasn't going for him
- 21:26Speaker 8: and a lot was put on him, you saw that
- 21:28Speaker 8: inexperience and that kind of inability or lack of desire
- 21:32Speaker 8: yet to just catch that snap and rip it. So
- 21:36Speaker 8: I think he'll start doing more of that. I think
- 21:39Speaker 8: he'll start pulling it and running more rather than feeling
- 21:43Speaker 8: like you know, some of these quarterbacks that can run
- 21:45Speaker 8: so well, they feel like they have to prove first
- 21:47Speaker 8: that they can sit in the pocket and it's like no.
- 21:50Speaker 8: Sometimes That's why he was so good against just Go
- 21:54Speaker 8: and I think you'll see more of that, so he'll
- 21:56Speaker 8: make that big step. My question will be in those
- 22:00Speaker 8: games against whoever it is in the SEC or Notre
- 22:03Speaker 8: Dame that can line up and and take that run away.
- 22:07Speaker 8: Can you win the game with your decision making in
- 22:10Speaker 8: your arm?
- 22:11Speaker 5: Who's the quarner?
- 22:12Speaker 3: I don't know, who's the quarterback in the league that's
- 22:14Speaker 3: getting on the hype train, getting all the hype, and
- 22:16Speaker 3: you just you're not there yet.
- 22:20Speaker 8: Simmons at at Old Miss, there's I mean there's a
- 22:24Speaker 8: lot of he impressed when he went I mean, you
- 22:26Speaker 8: know that little limited action and come in Georgia.
- 22:30Speaker 5: The Georgia game.
- 22:31Speaker 8: Yeah, but that's that you're replacing a bad, bad dude
- 22:35Speaker 8: in Jackson Dart And you know, I know, I believe
- 22:41Speaker 8: in Lane. I trust him as an OC, but I
- 22:45Speaker 8: don't know. And there's also no Trey Harris who could
- 22:48Speaker 8: have made me look good forget about you know, Like, so.
- 22:52Speaker 5: I hope he makes Justin Herbert look good for my Chargers.
- 22:55Speaker 2: Yeah, he can use him.
- 22:59Speaker 8: Yeah, No, I think I think he's the guy in
- 23:02Speaker 8: my second one, and I've known him since he's like
- 23:05Speaker 8: in ninth grade.
- 23:06Speaker 2: Is Lagway Okay. I think he's.
- 23:08Speaker 8: Incredible talent and if you ask me is he gonna.
- 23:11Speaker 4: Be great or not? My answer will be yes.
- 23:14Speaker 8: But man, there is a ton being put on him.
- 23:19Speaker 8: And I don't think his year last year was that
- 23:21Speaker 8: dissimilar when you look at it to like what Marcel did.
- 23:24Speaker 3: The stat's twelve touchdowns, nine interceptions, right, it's not eye popping.
- 23:30Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm a fan DJ Lagwage just because things
- 23:33Speaker 3: you said, like you know it's there and you're like wondering,
- 23:35Speaker 3: can't it come out?
- 23:36Speaker 5: His injury history is concerned, that's mine.
- 23:38Speaker 8: Yeah, because he is a he's a badass, he's a winner.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Guys gravitate towards him the.
- 23:45Speaker 8: Same way I see that in Baton Rouge with Nus.
- 23:49Speaker 8: My thing is that the injury history, the durability. I mean,
- 23:52Speaker 8: he's he looks like a linebacker. You wouldn't think, but
- 23:55Speaker 8: it's just he's so tightly muscled up. You guys play
- 23:59Speaker 8: with a bunch of those dudes sometimes it's like those
- 24:02Speaker 8: are the guys that's just constantly something And so I
- 24:06Speaker 8: wonder I do wonder a little bit.
- 24:07Speaker 5: Too many muscles, too many muscles to pull.
- 24:09Speaker 8: Yeah, that's why I've never pulled oneever.
- 24:13Speaker 5: I think I did a couple of weeks ago coughing,
- 24:15Speaker 5: but that's about Yeah. So I got gaged up on
- 24:18Speaker 5: earlier by shriepport people. So like a couple of Texas like, yeah,
- 24:24Speaker 5: we have Blake shape and we played the same high school.
- 24:26Speaker 2: So we're giving.
- 24:28Speaker 5: Billy and we met there for the first time a
- 24:30Speaker 5: couple of nights ago. We were able to kind of
- 24:32Speaker 5: like talk about Texas high school football and some guys
- 24:34Speaker 5: I played with that were and I thought you were
- 24:36Speaker 5: going to chop block each other because of it, you know,
- 24:38Speaker 5: we were talking about those Well, let me my question is,
- 24:44Speaker 5: so you've been you're kind of like an encyclopedia of
- 24:47Speaker 5: Texas A and M football and probably Texas high school
- 24:49Speaker 5: football in general. What is who are the top high
- 24:52Speaker 5: school football players that you've ever like scouted, seen or
- 24:57Speaker 5: been excited about seeing them at the next level.
- 24:59Speaker 8: Man, we talked the other night and one guy that
- 25:02Speaker 8: we talked about is on that list is Derek Johnson, linebacker.
- 25:05Speaker 2: Waco and just every every level.
- 25:08Speaker 5: Yeah, I was in the same division as him my
- 25:11Speaker 5: entire career. Yeah, he just stud Yeah.
- 25:13Speaker 2: God, I forget the chiefs in charge to.
- 25:15Speaker 5: Pick six to him a size of sophomore. Just I
- 25:17Speaker 5: was fresh into puberty too. I was growing, grew like
- 25:20Speaker 5: six inches and six months, you know.
- 25:22Speaker 2: Trying to chase him, trying to chase him.
- 25:25Speaker 4: I was at Waco I SD Stadium.
- 25:26Speaker 5: It was like the second second field in the country
- 25:30Speaker 5: to ever have the fake artificial grass. I think Nebraska
- 25:33Speaker 5: was the first Waco I SD stadium with an upper
- 25:35Speaker 5: deck and a jumbo tron in two thousand. Yeah, you're
- 25:38Speaker 5: two thousand, are you kidding? Me and Derek Johnson just
- 25:40Speaker 5: stalking around.
- 25:41Speaker 8: And so to me it was it was him. I
- 25:45Speaker 8: watched him play in a playoff game against another guy
- 25:47Speaker 8: that's on.
- 25:48Speaker 2: That list in Reggie McNeil.
- 25:50Speaker 5: I played against Reggie twice in high school. He's a stuff.
- 25:53Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Did you really?
- 25:54Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 25:54Speaker 2: I didn't know that. Yeah, I didn't know that.
- 25:56Speaker 3: We played all those East Texas teams at evangel Yeah,
- 25:58Speaker 3: Long Marshall regularly.
- 26:01Speaker 8: A and M had this weird couple of year of
- 26:03Speaker 8: pipeline into Westman Row. You remember Jason Leadou and remember
- 26:08Speaker 8: Jason Ladu du Is my guy. I wonder what he's
- 26:13Speaker 8: up to now.
- 26:13Speaker 2: He came to he was so shy and quiet.
- 26:18Speaker 8: It was almost weird how quiet he was like, but
- 26:21Speaker 8: he would open up. But uh, who was the pitcher
- 26:24Speaker 8: d line Bryant? Was it West West? He signed with
- 26:28Speaker 8: A and M, but played at L s U.
- 26:30Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, he came back. Yeah, played football. So to
- 26:32Speaker 5: finish my.
- 26:33Speaker 8: Short list is, Adrian Peterson is probably number one as
- 26:36Speaker 8: far as just the day I saw him ago camp missed.
- 26:39Speaker 8: There were three of them that the day I saw
- 26:41Speaker 8: him when they were in like ninth grade, that guy's
- 26:43Speaker 8: going to be like an NFL star. It was Adrian Peterson,
- 26:48Speaker 8: it was Leonard Davis, and it was Eric Winston. Yeah,
- 26:54Speaker 8: those three mid blocking for Cric Benson.
- 26:58Speaker 2: And then the one that I've known since.
- 27:00Speaker 8: He was like six years old because I knew his
- 27:02Speaker 8: dad really well, was Kyler Murray.
- 27:05Speaker 2: Kyler was doing what he did all the way through
- 27:08Speaker 2: college and into never lost.
- 27:10Speaker 8: In high school. He was doing it at like six
- 27:13Speaker 8: years old. My buddy sent me a little pee wee
- 27:15Speaker 8: football card and I'm like, who the hell is this.
- 27:18Speaker 2: It's like, he goes, that's Kevin Murray's son.
- 27:20Speaker 8: He was like six, and he was just like he
- 27:24Speaker 8: could have juked me out.
- 27:25Speaker 4: So he never lost in high school.
- 27:27Speaker 8: Never lost a start. He finished the game that he lost. Yeah,
- 27:31Speaker 8: he finished a game that he lost.
- 27:33Speaker 2: As a ninth grader.
- 27:34Speaker 8: He came off the bench, I think in the playoffs
- 27:36Speaker 8: and then won three straight titles.
- 27:39Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, I would.
- 27:40Speaker 5: Say that that that qualifies you for being at.
- 27:42Speaker 2: The top these yours in Louisiana.
- 27:45Speaker 8: In Louisiana that I've ever seen, mine's Marcus Spears and
- 27:49Speaker 8: Marquis Hill. Those two were at Camp and A and
- 27:52Speaker 8: M and you're like, we're teammates with Spears.
- 27:55Speaker 5: Andy just just an absolutely freak. That's there's so many physically,
- 28:01Speaker 5: just look they just looked different.
- 28:04Speaker 4: Yeah, Like you know, I got.
- 28:05Speaker 3: A chance to see the quarterbacks from where I went
- 28:07Speaker 3: to high school, so like Josh Boody, John David Booty,
- 28:11Speaker 3: Brock Berlin, like all those advantage just really good players.
- 28:15Speaker 5: I watched brock Berlin in Rose Stadium and Tyler Texas
- 28:19Speaker 5: as an eighth grader.
- 28:20Speaker 2: You know, was he was an eighth grader?
- 28:22Speaker 4: You were?
- 28:22Speaker 5: I was an eighth grade. He was a senior Pbsably,
- 28:25Speaker 5: I was in middle school, so I was throwing it
- 28:26Speaker 5: like once a game or whatever. And so I go
- 28:28Speaker 5: there and they're playing John Tyler, who's won like five
- 28:30Speaker 5: state championships in the nineties. They ran the SCAT eight
- 28:33Speaker 5: SCAT nine. Uh, and they play this team that was
- 28:36Speaker 5: had a quarterback lined up nine yards behind the line
- 28:38Speaker 5: of scrimmage taking a seven step drop and over three
- 28:41Speaker 5: hundred yards in the first half. And I was like,
- 28:44Speaker 5: I was watching this as a quarterback, and I was like,
- 28:46Speaker 5: I think I'm in love.
- 28:47Speaker 4: This is amazing.
- 28:48Speaker 2: Brock Berlin, I forgot. Did he go straight to Miami.
- 28:51Speaker 3: He went to Florida, then transferred to Miami and then
- 28:54Speaker 3: get him an Arch Bowl.
- 28:55Speaker 5: At the time, I was like, brock Berlin's here, like
- 28:57Speaker 5: Troy Aikmans, He's yeah, not as good as Brocco.
- 29:01Speaker 3: Yeah, as far as like once I was done playing
- 29:03Speaker 3: and like started like cover LSU Devin White, Oh yeah,
- 29:07Speaker 3: Devin White is probably like, yeah, that kid has grown
- 29:10Speaker 3: at sixteen years old, running back linebacker was doing it.
- 29:14Speaker 2: All a and M this funny story.
- 29:17Speaker 8: I know, y'all got to go a funny story about him.
- 29:20Speaker 8: John David Crowe. Yeah, so he went to the same
- 29:23Speaker 8: high school.
- 29:24Speaker 5: Yeahring him and.
- 29:26Speaker 8: John David Crowe was I think it was coach someone.
- 29:30Speaker 8: But John David Crowe, you know, he's no longer with us,
- 29:32Speaker 8: so he was nearing the end and he just kept
- 29:36Speaker 8: he didn't never meddle or try to get in, but
- 29:38Speaker 8: he just kept going up to whether it was coach
- 29:41Speaker 8: someone or coach Sherman.
- 29:42Speaker 2: I think it was someone.
- 29:44Speaker 8: And he kept telling him about Devin White. Hey, I
- 29:47Speaker 8: don't know any of this stuff, but I got people
- 29:49Speaker 8: telling me and it was Devin White.
- 29:51Speaker 2: Devin White, like you know, very early in his high
- 29:55Speaker 2: school career.
- 29:56Speaker 8: And so he was a random guy that for whatever reason,
- 29:59Speaker 8: and my buddy that worked for a coach someone would
- 30:01Speaker 8: always say, your boy, John David crow came up here
- 30:03Speaker 8: again today and he's asking about that Louisiana.

- 34:32Speaker 3: twenty years.
- 34:33Speaker 5: If we didn't have time, I wanted to tell him
- 34:34Speaker 5: the story while he was on. But like a really
- 34:37Speaker 5: good Jason LaDue story from back in college. Was you know,
- 34:40Speaker 5: after after you'd go and hang out with your your
- 34:45Speaker 5: fellow LSU classmates at the bars, whether you enjoyed pops
- 34:49Speaker 5: or not, you'd go and you'd go late night. You
- 34:52Speaker 5: try to get some food afterwards, try to get a
- 34:53Speaker 5: little little food in the belly help you the next morning.
- 34:56Speaker 4: Uh.
- 34:57Speaker 5: Sometimes you go across the street, go to like Pluckers.
- 34:59Speaker 5: You go, you go and get some wings, get something
- 35:01Speaker 5: that was open late night. Well, we were there sitting
- 35:03Speaker 5: one night and me and some friends. I think it
- 35:06Speaker 5: was like Josh Cher, maybe it was Peter Daikowski and
- 35:09Speaker 5: then Jason Duo was there right and so we all
- 35:11Speaker 5: sit down to eat. We're eating some wings, minding our
- 35:13Speaker 5: own business. Right, there's this group of gentlemen, young table,
- 35:18Speaker 5: young lads, lung strapping lads that wanted to test themselves.
- 35:21Speaker 5: And they were next to us, and they might have
- 35:23Speaker 5: had a fame some white beat her tanks on. Oh okay,
- 35:26Speaker 5: so that not the crew I was thinking. So they're
- 35:28Speaker 5: sitting there and they're like they're like chugging, chugging beers
- 35:31Speaker 5: or something and like racing and time. No, I'm sorry,
- 35:35Speaker 5: no this one there they were arm wrestling a table
- 35:37Speaker 5: next to us, all right, so there and just like
- 35:39Speaker 5: over the top and just.
- 35:40Speaker 4: Being just meatheads and dummies.
- 35:42Speaker 5: Right, And so they're arm wrestling and they look over
- 35:45Speaker 5: at our tailor like, hey, you know what challenged this?
- 35:47Speaker 4: You want arm wrestle? And they keep like.
- 35:50Speaker 5: And we just kind of ignormally. Hey, they were just
- 35:52Speaker 5: eating wings. Man, we're having some water. Like, just leave
- 35:55Speaker 5: us alone, we're minding our own business. Water. You don't
- 35:57Speaker 5: want the alpha energy. Yeah, And so they go up
- 36:00Speaker 5: and they like walk up to the dew and they're
- 36:02Speaker 5: like what they said some words, but basically they said,
- 36:05Speaker 5: are you scared? They said some other way they put
- 36:08Speaker 5: it in different terms, and Jason sets down his wing.
- 36:14Speaker 5: He like takes a napkin slow straight from a movie.
- 36:16Speaker 4: It takes it.
- 36:16Speaker 5: He like wipes off his mouth a little bit, and
- 36:19Speaker 5: he says, listen, I'm no amateur. Put one hundred on
- 36:23Speaker 5: it in an arm wrestle you. I'm no amateur. I'm
- 36:27Speaker 5: not gonna do this for free. Put some money on it.
- 36:29Speaker 4: Do it.
- 36:29Speaker 5: And then again the guy called him whimpy in a
- 36:32Speaker 5: certain way. Jason stands up, puts his napkin down the
- 36:36Speaker 5: slow motion, open fist, slaps the guy in the boo
- 36:44Speaker 5: and it was just like I was like, oh boy,
- 36:46Speaker 5: oh yeah, all right, we got and then of course
- 36:49Speaker 5: guy gets thrown across the table. Hey, the rest is
- 36:51Speaker 5: you have to teach people a lesson sometimes. But it
- 36:54Speaker 5: was just it was perfect, the slow motion and we
- 36:56Speaker 5: just wipe the wing, sauce and ranch off my face
- 36:59Speaker 5: real quick, wipe my hands off. But I'm not an amateur, buddy.
- 37:03Speaker 3: Why was it always in college like we'd be out
- 37:06Speaker 3: in a group and you know, we'd have Sean Jordan
- 37:09Speaker 3: and Will Arnold with us, right, two dudes.
- 37:11Speaker 5: I'm like, nah, I'm good. I don't need to I know, No,
- 37:14Speaker 5: I don't need to test the test myself.
- 37:16Speaker 4: No.
- 37:16Speaker 3: But if there was a group of five Hunt Palmers
- 37:19Speaker 3: walking by, I was like, Okay, one of them's gonna
- 37:22Speaker 3: say something.
- 37:22Speaker 4: Yep.
- 37:23Speaker 5: One i'm's gonna say something to Will Arnold and he's
- 37:25Speaker 5: gonna almost kill him. And it's but they did it
- 37:27Speaker 5: consistently and never learned because with certain people, like in
- 37:31Speaker 5: our group, there was no warning shots. There was like
- 37:33Speaker 5: there's like, hey, I'll let you slide to that time.
- 37:36Speaker 5: It was just like, you're not gonna slide because there's
- 37:38Speaker 5: always you know, guys thought they were the baddest.
- 37:41Speaker 4: Dude of their hometown or whatever.
- 37:42Speaker 5: Just just remember in any walk life, however bigger bad yard,
- 37:45Speaker 5: there's always somebody batter.
- 37:46Speaker 3: I just so many times a Landra Hunt was over here.
- 37:50Speaker 3: That's why he's not catching too bad of us straight.
- 37:52Speaker 3: But I was just saying, like a fraternity brother, if
- 37:55Speaker 3: there was a group of five of them, they were
- 37:57Speaker 3: gonna say something to Sean Jordan's every time, and he
- 38:00Speaker 3: was gonna do frat bros. Yes, and he was gonna
- 38:02Speaker 3: go five for five every time. I can't tell you
- 38:04Speaker 3: in my time I've been walking by somebody said something
- 38:08Speaker 3: and the next plant foot for Sean is not like
- 38:10Speaker 3: to stop, it's to push back towards the other way.
- 38:13Speaker 5: And I'm sorry, I just gotta think it's gotta be
- 38:16Speaker 5: some like sort of rush thing, you rush rats or
- 38:19Speaker 5: is it just sorority, whatever it is. It's just like, hey, listen, freshmen,
- 38:22Speaker 5: gotta go, you have to go start a fight or
- 38:26Speaker 5: pick on the biggest guy at the bar.
- 38:27Speaker 3: And it never it never stopped my entire time, and
- 38:32Speaker 3: it was always and it was shocked. It was always
- 38:34Speaker 3: the baddest dude that they said it to.
- 38:36Speaker 5: First, and nobody went there trying to do that. Yeah,
- 38:39Speaker 5: they're trying to like be the alpha. We were just
- 38:42Speaker 5: there to you know, delete some stuff exactly. We just
- 38:45Speaker 5: wanted to have a good time. Yeah, But I never
- 38:49Speaker 5: never saw well maybe I'm not gonna say never never
- 38:52Speaker 5: never ever say never ever saw any one of our
- 38:55Speaker 5: groups start something.
- 38:56Speaker 3: No, I'm sure it happened, but probably well if we
- 38:59Speaker 3: started something, than it was with another sport and not
- 39:01Speaker 3: with sure, you know, a group of hump palmers with.
- 39:07Speaker 5: Peace and love hunt.

- 42:27Speaker 5: uncomfortable sitting down because he knew. I was kind of
- 42:29Speaker 5: like saying, I don't think he's a real person. Ask Flynn.
- 42:32Speaker 3: This one comes from Alando Villa Reale in the in
- 42:35Speaker 3: the chat here. Wait, why are you wearing the same
- 42:37Speaker 3: pants you war yesterday?

- 42:51Speaker 5: three days. I'm three days in a row right now.
- 42:52Speaker 4: With these genes, especially like.
- 42:54Speaker 5: With a neutral color, I'm not gonna lift that leg up,
- 42:56Speaker 5: lift this one up. This is just a neutral color.
- 42:57Speaker 5: It kind of works with everything. If you don't move
- 42:59Speaker 5: that fast, I ain't gonna.
- 43:02Speaker 4: It, says daddy on it.
- 43:05Speaker 5: Why are you grunting?
- 43:07Speaker 4: Well, I lift it up pretty tall.
- 43:08Speaker 5: They're trying not to move my right leg because I
- 43:10Speaker 5: don't have to rip any further.
- 43:13Speaker 3: Uh, Matt wearing the hoochie dad shorts two days in
- 43:16Speaker 3: a row. He definitely has got some hoochie dad shorts.
- 43:18Speaker 5: Any wears cost a lot of money to lick this cheek. Jesus,
- 43:24Speaker 5: what uh?
- 43:25Speaker 3: Someone get the face plant video? Oh yeah, so someone
- 43:30Speaker 3: had you know, that podium there, and they got the
- 43:32Speaker 3: camera up.
- 43:33Speaker 5: Well, he had the camera up, so he didn't have
- 43:35Speaker 5: any hands. He tripped right here on.
- 43:37Speaker 3: This left side and his chin hit first like and
- 43:41Speaker 3: he got up when.
- 43:44Speaker 5: An hour and a half ago.
- 43:45Speaker 4: No no, no, no, this was when Lucci was on it.
- 43:47Speaker 5: But no, no, no, it was before Saintie came after.
- 43:52Speaker 7: This is when I threw the kids into the deep
- 43:53Speaker 7: end and huge drowned.
- 43:55Speaker 3: So he's face plan, I mean not face chin plant
- 44:00Speaker 3: and so somebody. The reason I don't think that there's
- 44:04Speaker 3: video is because each of these podiums was filled with people.
- 44:07Speaker 5: Cameras pointed at the podium and he was in the
- 44:11Speaker 5: very back, So I don't know that anybody see Marler
- 44:14Speaker 5: was on the other side of the room facing that direction. No,
- 44:17Speaker 5: his arm was up, but he was facing that direction.
- 44:21Speaker 5: So I think he might have had a chance to
- 44:22Speaker 5: see people.
- 44:25Speaker 4: People need to.
- 44:26Speaker 7: Know though people are many, many people are asking, are.
- 44:29Speaker 3: Asking, let's see ask the bench. Has Flynn recorded?
- 44:34Speaker 4: Oh?
- 44:34Speaker 3: Okay, as Flynn recorded any interviews while Jacob Hester is
- 44:37Speaker 3: on serious or is he just hiding out in bathrooms
- 44:40Speaker 3: talking to old coaches.
- 44:41Speaker 7: No, Mattlin is putting in work.
- 44:44Speaker 4: Yeh.
- 44:45Speaker 7: Every time I see him, he's like sitting down in
- 44:47Speaker 7: the media room with his notebook open, like taking notes.
- 44:51Speaker 7: He's like sitting on a bench taking notes. He's been
- 44:53Speaker 7: walking around doing like sort of a car wash of
- 44:55Speaker 7: interviews with other stations, like he has been.
- 44:58Speaker 5: Just propping up bat Rouge enough the LSU tigers off
- 45:02Speaker 5: the Bench. I mean everybody around the Southeast has heard
- 45:05Speaker 5: of off the Bench for sure because we are talking
- 45:07Speaker 5: about it. So I'm kind of I know, I got
- 45:09Speaker 5: this personam the kind of the guy that doesn't know
- 45:10Speaker 5: the names and the stats. That's not going to last
- 45:13Speaker 5: for long. People we're putting in the work. We're chat
- 45:15Speaker 5: GPT and I got this little handy dandy green there.
