• 0:16
  Speaker 3: Thanks for having me again on this beautiful Monday morning
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: here in Houston County, Georgia.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, and also a big thanks, of course, big shout-out
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: to our sponsor, State Farm agent Ryan Lyons. Remember, guys, ProtectedByRyan.com. ProtectedByRyan.com

  Speaker 1: is the website. Big-time supporter of what we do here
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: on this show and Houston County Athletics. And, Jeremy, I've
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: been remiss if I didn't say a big shout-out to
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: downtown Ronnie Brown. I want to give him a big shout-out.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: He's always here front and center.
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Yep. Great guy. Love Ron. Miss Ronnie. Um, you know, uh,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: can't say enough good things about what he does.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: I know we've hit that numerous times, but he's, uh,
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: certainly deserving and, uh, and everybody needs to know that
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: he's a huge part of, um, you know, our program and,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: and the things that go on on a day-to-day basis,
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: a lot of things that people don't see he does.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: And, uh, certainly love him.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: And everything that he's about as a human being and
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: what he does for our program.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. Well, coach, let's, uh, let's get into, uh, the
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Lee County game, uh, kind of a rough, rough go
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: of it. Uh, the other night, what can you tell
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: us about the, uh, the, the, the loss?
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: I mean, uh, Lee, Lee County is a good football team,
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: you know, um, tough to play down there in Leesburg. It's, uh,
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: you know, always, always a tough place to play. And, um,
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: you know, I was happy, uh, we brought a, a
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: decent crowd down there. It's not an easy trip, you know,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: an hour and a half or so, but, uh, we
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: did bring a crowd. So I appreciate the support of the, uh,
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: the HOCO faithful that came down there to support our
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: kids that, uh, they certainly deserve it. We just didn't,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: we didn't play very well, um, got beaten all three
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: phases and, uh, you know, they're a good football team,
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: you know, ranked up there number two in PSR for
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: a reason. I think that the PSR has that right with,
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: you know, them and Thomas County Central being, Thomas County
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: Central being one, them being two, and, you know, obviously
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: Coffey's four, so our region's well represented in the playoffs.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: All seven got in, which is crazy, but uh, it's
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: definitely earned, I think. Um, I think that, that they
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: got that right, but, uh, yeah, Friday night is, um,
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: that was, that was tough pill.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: To, to, to swallow.
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: You know, we, we just, uh, kind of couldn't get
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: out of our own way. We sustained some injuries. We
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: had several guys out with the flu and I don't,
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: I don't want to make it sound like that's excuses. Cause, uh,
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: at the end of the day, we got beat, um,
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: you know, uh, but certainly the, you know, having guys
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: out with illness and then sustaining some key injuries in
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: the first half certainly didn't help the cause for, you know,
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: any type of second half type comeback. So hats off
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: to Lee County. They do a good job and, you know,
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: we'll flush it. It's now the tournament time where it
• 3:27
  Speaker 3: really counts.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Winner go home. So that's what we're focused on. Yeah,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: I hear you, Coach.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: And listen, that's a great thing. You know, there are
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: some teams out there that will not have another opportunity.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Their season is done. But you mentioned the PSR. Of course,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: you guys will go on for another day. And we're
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: going to talk about that in a minute. I want
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: to get your thoughts real quick on this PSR. I personally,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: the more and more I get into it, the more
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: I like it just because it does. Well, two things.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: It does not penalize teams like you guys. I mean,
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: come on. Everybody knows you're better than the 5-5 record.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, I talk to a lot of people around
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: the state. It's just it is what it is. You know,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: you have overseen one of the best football programs in
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: this region, in this state, and everybody has these bumps
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: in the road. That's what this is. But, Coach– this
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: is also going to give you an opportunity to right
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: some wrongs. You've got Kale coming up in the playoffs.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: But give your overall thoughts on the PSR and what
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: it means as far as giving another opportunity to teams
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: like yourself.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I do.
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: Think that there's probably some things that they will tweak.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: I'm sure that's going to happen every year. You know,
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: I think that, Like I said, I mentioned all of
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: our seven teams in our region get in.
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: That's huge.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: It is, you know, and a lot of that had
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: to do with a, you know, a certain win by
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: certain teams late where teams maybe didn't think they were
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: getting in.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: And all of a sudden they did.
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: I think some of our county teams helped some of
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: our county teams, you know, to get in. You know,
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: the one unfortunate thing is a lot of these teams
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: besides us, they're playing an in-region opponent again.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: That's happened a lot. It's a little different.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: You know, I don't know that there's no sense in
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: really having regions anymore if we're going to do it
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: this way simply because, What's the– besides getting in the
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: top 16 being a region champ, what is the draw
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: of– what good is it to be a region champ, really,
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: you know, now? And then– so I don't know. I
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: think that you can spin it a bunch of different ways.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: I don't agree with the fact that– and this has
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: nothing to do with 6A, but you look at 7A and,
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: you know, quite frankly, the best team in the state
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: and maybe one of the best teams in the country
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: in Buford High School is ranked, I think, eight or nine.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I mean, are you kidding me? Like that's man lost
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: in two years. Um, I think that's right. Uh, yeah,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: you're right.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: I think, you know, and then you, uh, I don't know, man, I, I,
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: I leave that up to you and, um, all of
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: your followers on your show and to talk about that stuff. Um,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: I just do what they tell me to do and
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: play who they tell me to play. And we give
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: it our best shot every week. And, um, our kids
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: play really hard. Um, you know, and, and they love
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: each other and we love them. And, and that's what
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: it's all about. Um, clearly, you know, we would love
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: to have went, won the game Friday night.
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Um, but we didn't.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: And, uh, you know, you gotta, you gotta figure out
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: what went wrong. You gotta try to fix it. That's
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: what we do as coaches. And, um, you know, but again,
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: hats off to, to Lee. I think they're a really
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: good football team. I think, um, they do a good job. Um,
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: you know, what they do schematically, it's good. They got,
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: they got really good players. And, uh, when you got
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: really good players, you're going to have a really good team. And, uh,
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: you know, I will like to say that maybe one
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: of the best football players I've seen this year is
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: their tight end.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Um, that's going to Clemson. Um, he's really, really good. Yeah.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: I think he's really good. I think he's really, really good. Um, and, uh,
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: I was very impressed by his play. You know, hats
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: off to those guys. They did a good job.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: It goes to the class guy that you are, okay?
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Not only are you a great football coach, but you're
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: a class individual. So that speaks for itself, obviously, in
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: your comments, okay? So– Coach, let's just kind of flush
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: that game and let's move on and talk about your
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: next opponent. You guys are in the playoffs, of course,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: and if I'm not mistaken, you're going to– you've got
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: to go on the road to take on the Kel Longhorns.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll go up to Marietta and take on Kel,
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: who's a good football team. You know, they're 8-2 and–
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: you know, they're, they're ranked where they're ranked in PSR
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: and we're ranked where we are and that's who we play.
• 8:30
  Speaker 3: And found that out after, uh, seemed like a little
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: bit of a struggle to figure out who's playing who,
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: you know, that, that was, uh, that's another thing I
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: would like to mention and not that anybody cares and
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: listens to me, but, um, you know, the fact that
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: we have to wait around till midday on Saturday, um,
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: to try to figure out who we're going to play, um,
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: kind of knocks down some of your preparation and planning
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: and things like that. So, you know, that was really,
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: really kind of unfortunate.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: I think that it.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: Would be nice to have a bye week if they're
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: going to do it that way, you know, have a
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: Zoom call and, you know, set the bracket.
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Because, like, a lot of times you.
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: Already know when we were region, you know, one through four,
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: you knew who you were playing that night.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Now it's like you wake up and you wait and
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: you wait and you wait. Oh, we may play this team.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: And we went from possibly playing Gainesville to playing Kale
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: to playing Gainesville to playing Kale. It's like, you know,
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: we've got to figure this out, especially since we're the
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: road team. So, you know, for travel and things like that. So,
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: you know, it is what it is. Like I said,
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: we try to control what we can control. And, you know,
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: I think that's all you can do.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: You'll drive yourself crazy.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so I was just trying to look here and
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: just take a look at where you guys are at.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: So y'all came in as the number 18 team. kill
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: is number 15. If I, if I'm reading that right.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: That's correct.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: I think we were 17 at one time and then
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: Effingham won the region.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: Congrats to John Ford, my buddy. Yep. Love John.
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Good guy.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: Yep, me too. And so they get into the top 16, right?
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Because that's the advantage of winning your region. So they
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: got in there at 16. And then I think they
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: get to play my other buddy, Jonathan Thompson, JT, and
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: then we'll get to play John Ford.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: And that ought to be a good game. Yeah. Yeah, 100%.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: And Effingham.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: Is that right?
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Mm-hmm. That's right.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: All right. See, we can turn this into your call-in show, Phil.
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: We don't have to talk about HOCO football. We can
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: talk about the rest of the state.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: No, no, man. Listen, we're here. Obviously, this is your show, man.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: We like to dedicate it to Houston County football. But
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: it is interesting in your comments and what you say
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: because I tell you, going back to what you were
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: talking about, not knowing who you're going to play, you know,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: from a fan standpoint, I can see. I think fans
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: like that. And let me tell you what I mean.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: You know, you mentioned the fact that you guys could
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: kind of figure out before when it was the one
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: through four traditional one through four, who you were.
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: Going to play.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: And I think that turned off some fans who, you know,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: you guys could, and I say you guys, I mean, coaches.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not, I'm not including you, but, but coaches could
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: actually go ahead and plan for say their last game
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: and say, well, you know, man, we don't have to
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: have this game. we can lose and actually have a
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: better placement in the playoffs. You follow what I'm saying?
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: And I think that part of it is what fans
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: don't like. I think it's the spontaneity. And, again, I
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: know that that's kind of a detriment to coaches who
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: are trying to plan, like you mentioned. But I think
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: there's some intrigue when it comes to that as far
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: as from a fan standpoint. But, again, just kind of
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: give you both sides of it.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, it's just the thing is you've got
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: to try to, you know, if you're an away team,
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: like I said, you've got to get your itinerary set
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: for travel. You've got to try to collect as much
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: film as you can on your opponent. There's just a
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: lot of things that just kind of put you a
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: little bit behind the eight ball. Now, I'll be honest,
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: like Saturdays in our program is for family. That's what
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: it is, right? You know, like I'm going to hang out. Well,
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: I'm going to hang out with these folks, right?
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: There you go. That's what I'm going to do. Yeah, man.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: On Saturday.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: But, and my daughter, you know, congrats to my daughter
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: and the Hoco Cheer won the region on Saturday and.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: Cheer, competition cheer. That was awesome.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: Beautiful. You know, so, you know, it's, there's not a
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: whole lot of time to sit around and feel sorry
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: for yourself.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: You know, you got to get up and you got
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: to be a dad, man. Like if. Yep.
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: You know, you can't, you can't let your circumstances dictate
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: your happiness and stuff like that. 100%.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Nobody really, you know, you.
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: Gotta keep, keep, keep on, man. Keep working.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: You're right. So, um, do you, do you have any,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: have you been able to prepare or look at kale?
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: What kind of team they've got? I mean, uh, how
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: do you, yeah.
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we got it.
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: We got, we ended up getting, uh, you know, everything's
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: set and we have, we're, we're here all day on Sunday,
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: pretty much after church, you know, and, uh, you know, uh,
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: so yeah, we're, we, we.
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: Got a plan together.
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: We're prepared for what, you know, we feel like they're
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: going to do based on the film and things like that.
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: And we were able to get our itinerary set for
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: Friday and how we're going to attack that day.
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: And, um, what does that look like?
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: Well, we're, we're gonna, um, you know, we're gonna have
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: to leave a little early cause we're gonna have to
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: get through the, you know, Atlanta traffic and all that stuff.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: Yep, yep.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: We'll head off to, you know, an undisclosed place in
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: Marietta to start, kind of camp out for a little while.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: It's going to be a little chilly up there. Yeah.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: You know, but it's going to be football weather. Heck, man,
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: we're looking forward to it. It's going to be a
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: lot of fun.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. So it's going to be Houston County going to Kale.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: It's a Friday night game.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Friday night, yeah. That was another thing, Phil. I don't
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: know if you knew this, but like late last night.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: Yes.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: You know, we're still here in the office. We receive,
• 14:37
  Speaker 3: you know, my email goes off and, you know, it
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: goes off.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: I know exactly where you're going with this, yeah. Referee shortage.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: Shortage, man. The quad A is going to play on Saturday. Hey, surprise,
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: you know. That's wild.
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: That is absolutely wild that that came out. When it
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: came out, probably most people are home by then. you know,
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: unless you're one of those grinders that stays up at
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: the office all night on a Sunday night. But, yeah,
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: that's really, really crazy. I was shocked to see that.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: Figured they'd know.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: That ahead of time. Yeah, you would think. But, you know,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: this is– and, of course, different discussion for a different day. But,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: you know, the shortage of referees, that's been an ongoing thing.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, you know what I mean? This is an
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: issue that's been brewing. I mean, I wrote a pretty
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: lengthy story. last season with interviews with some of the
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: best white hats in the state. And they talked about, hey,
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: get ready because this is coming unless we have a
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: major recruitment effort to get some new referees in. And so, yeah,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I guess in a way, not really that surprising to me,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: but I hear what you're saying. But, well, Coach, anything
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: else you'd like to add, man, before we get out
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: of here as far as, you know, where your team's at?
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: I know you mentioned You've had some injuries. Hopefully everybody's
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: going to be okay. You're going to be at full
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: strength for the game?
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll be fine. We'll get them ready.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: We've got a great training staff and, you know, team doctors,
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: and they'll get them all ready to roll. And we'll
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: go up to Kel. And, you know, like I said,
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: I encourage all of our fans to make the trip.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: I'm sure it'll be online somewhere, but there's nothing better
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: than being in the stadium, showing your support for the
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: guys that work very hard. And playoffs are a very
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: special time.
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: You know, not everybody gets that opportunity. So, you know.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: There it is.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah. I know you'll be at the game with that
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: helmet on, Phil. Of course.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: Absolutely, man.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: I'll go live with you after the game if you
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: want for your call-in show. Would you do that? I
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: would if you come to the game. Yeah, I sure will. Oh,
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: if I come to the game. Okay. You better bring
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: a jacket.
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: But, yeah, it's going to be good. So we're looking
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: forward to it. And, you know, I look forward to
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: talking to you next week about it.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Same here. Same here, Coach.
