- 0:37Speaker 1: we got a lot of fun things to dive into,
- 0:40Speaker 1: like possible coaching change. It appears the NFL is calling
- 0:45Speaker 1: one of our coaches an additional transfer protal pickup that
- 0:50Speaker 1: we'll explain the importance Senior Bowl. We gotta talk about
- 0:54Speaker 1: that because a lot of our players have been balling
- 0:57Speaker 1: out and the coaching staff has been in the streets
- 1:01Speaker 1: seeing those recruits. Coop Happy Sunday, My man, what's going on?
- 1:08Speaker 1: Not much?
- 1:08Speaker 2: It is a the snow is almost gone, so I
- 1:12Speaker 2: look out and I'm just a little bit on the
- 1:14Speaker 2: yard still.
- 1:15Speaker 3: So yeah, it's supposed to be like sixty.
- 1:17Speaker 2: Degrees tomorrow, so uh, Oklahoma, you know it's going to
- 1:21Speaker 2: do what Oklahoma does. So we'll see. But it's it's good.
- 1:26Speaker 2: We got super Bowl Sunday next week.
- 1:29Speaker 1: I know. It's funny because we're talking about this in
- 1:31Speaker 1: the green room. When you mentioned that, I was like,
- 1:33Speaker 1: wait what, I'm like, Oh snap, I forgot. It is
- 1:37Speaker 1: the second weekend in February this year that we have it.
- 1:40Speaker 4: Did they do Pro Bowl stuff this weekend? Didn't they
- 1:45Speaker 4: have Pro Bowl festivities this weekend? Like I don't mean,
- 1:48Speaker 4: I don't to me in like I used to. It's
- 1:50Speaker 4: not in Hawaii anymore, so it's not as intriguing like
- 1:53Speaker 4: I used to. But I completely forgot even about the.
- 1:56Speaker 1: Pro Bowl stuff. Like it's the NFL has put so
- 2:01Speaker 1: much in the super Bowl basket that you just completely
- 2:06Speaker 1: forget about a lot of the other stuff that's going
- 2:08Speaker 1: on that should be talked about.
- 2:10Speaker 2: Well, you got the the coaching you know changes, and
- 2:16Speaker 2: that will kind of lead us into what we talk about.
- 2:18Speaker 3: But there's so much.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Coaching changes going on, you're trying to track what guy
- 2:24Speaker 2: had a decent year as the OC you know, taking
- 2:27Speaker 2: your headgehob head job somewhere else. Regurgitations like Mike McCarthy
- 2:33Speaker 2: getting another job, and so yeah, it's oh kidney Stone. Yeah, No,
- 2:40Speaker 2: I drink SODA's the cherry seven up. I bet I
- 2:45Speaker 2: go through a twelve pack every month and a half.
- 2:50Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't know caffeine stuff.
- 2:54Speaker 1: But yeah, caffeine is the one thing I need to
- 2:57Speaker 1: probably slow down on. I was getting a little too
- 3:00Speaker 1: going a little too hard on the beaver, and you know,
- 3:03Speaker 1: as you age, prostate is the thing to pay attention to,
- 3:06Speaker 1: you know, as a guy, and so I need to
- 3:08Speaker 1: cut back on that because you know, caffeine does irritate
- 3:11Speaker 1: the prostate. So cut back a little bit on that.
- 3:12Speaker 1: But I also don't really drink soda. I drink a
- 3:17Speaker 1: ton of water and a ton of tea, So that's
- 3:20Speaker 1: a good thing for me. I've stayed away from soda
- 3:22Speaker 1: for years. I'll probably have one every quarter. I don't
- 3:26Speaker 1: even get him in mixed drinks anymore. It's just I
- 3:28Speaker 1: rarely dive into the soda. I mean I'll grab an
- 3:31Speaker 1: Ali pop every once in a while, which that really
- 3:33Speaker 1: ain't the soda. Soda, but yeah, yeah, that's so much pain.
- 3:37Speaker 2: I drink a lot of the Bubbly water. You know,
- 3:40Speaker 2: the the essence fans hint and hint water, which you
- 3:44Speaker 2: know again the essences Because I think I sit down
- 3:50Speaker 2: to start my day, I drink just straight just black
- 3:54Speaker 2: coffee maybe two or three times a week. Used to
- 3:58Speaker 2: be Starbucks was a major expense of mine. For the
- 4:02Speaker 2: longest time. My drink was like my drink was like
- 4:07Speaker 2: five shots of espresso and two percent milk, like no
- 4:10Speaker 2: syrups or anything like that. I didn't do that for
- 4:12Speaker 2: a long time. I did it about two or three
- 4:15Speaker 2: weeks ago, and I thought I was gonna like my
- 4:18Speaker 2: skin was trying to jump off my body. So I
- 4:20Speaker 2: can't take it very much anymore. But got a little
- 4:23Speaker 2: refrigerator right here, and just grab one of those waters
- 4:26Speaker 2: every once in a while.
- 4:27Speaker 3: And yeah, like I said, soda every three or four days.
- 4:32Speaker 1: As you say that, it's funny and and soon your
- 4:35Speaker 1: cab over here laugh and you drink too much sweet tea.
- 4:38Speaker 1: That's what them stones coming from. Out of sugar. That's
- 4:41Speaker 1: what them stones be coming from. And I that's where
- 4:44Speaker 1: I cut it, right. It is because of that specifically,
- 4:46Speaker 1: I know those things build up and do that. As
- 4:49Speaker 1: we over here talking, hell, can you tell you're old
- 4:51Speaker 1: because you start talking about.

- 6:14Speaker 1: I appreciate you pointing that out. So yeah, we'll get
- 6:18Speaker 1: into the news on that in a minute, but let's
- 6:22Speaker 1: start off with the biggest thing that's been hitting the
- 6:24Speaker 1: waves of Sooner Nation over the last has it been
- 6:28Speaker 1: a few days now, Yeah, it's been a few days
- 6:31Speaker 1: that this has become literally the topic of discussion for
- 6:35Speaker 1: Oklahoma has been our guy Javeli is back in the
- 6:41Speaker 1: news now now he's no longer in the conversation for
- 6:48Speaker 1: the for the job over at Notre Dame. Looks like
- 6:53Speaker 1: they've actually got their target and they're gonna go with
- 6:58Speaker 1: the Illinois defensive back and defensive coordinator to bring in
- 7:03Speaker 1: as a CODC or whatnot. And as y'all know, we've
- 7:06Speaker 1: talked about it here numerous times. Java Laie He's I'll
- 7:13Speaker 1: put it this way, he's not actively out heard looking
- 7:16Speaker 1: to bounce from Oklahoma. And I can tell you that
- 7:19Speaker 1: with confidence because this is the longest stint he's had
- 7:23Speaker 1: anywhere in his career. Yeah, like Java, Laie has pretty
- 7:28Speaker 1: much moved around since he's gotten the coach and he
- 7:32Speaker 1: was at he did quality control for Georgia in sixteen seventeen,
- 7:36Speaker 1: he did the Chiefs four year in eighteen, and then
- 7:41Speaker 1: from from twenty eighteen till he got here, every year
- 7:45Speaker 1: he had a new job, from the Chiefs to Rutgers's
- 7:48Speaker 1: cornerback coach, to Texas's cornerback coach, Tobama the cornerback coach,
- 7:52Speaker 1: got to oak he was at the Eagles. He took
- 7:54Speaker 1: the Eagles job for like a very very very short
- 7:58Speaker 1: stint and like he was joining Nick Sirianni for their
- 8:04Speaker 1: staff February first, and right after that, twelve days later
- 8:10Speaker 1: he got hired to Bama, and then he came to
- 8:13Speaker 1: Oklahoma twenty twenty two. Now with that he's been here since.
- 8:19Speaker 1: This has been Vali's longest stint of any job. So
- 8:22Speaker 1: I kind of want to set the story here for
- 8:26Speaker 1: you all. Now with that being said, first, Notre Dame
- 8:32Speaker 1: was courting them, which we get. Y'all saw how the
- 8:34Speaker 1: Corners did well last year. Last season, Eli Boyn's a beast,
- 8:38Speaker 1: Courtland guillery, true freshman walk out there and doing very
- 8:42Speaker 1: well for what a true freshman. Sixth in total defense
- 8:46Speaker 1: in college football, so against a bunch of actually good
- 8:49Speaker 1: offenses did well. Now since Notre Dame couldn't bring him
- 8:54Speaker 1: over the collegiate ranks, the Buffalo Bills are looking at him.
- 8:57Speaker 1: So Coop, tell these people why that's a good thing
- 9:05Speaker 1: for Oklahoma. Not that we won't lie gone, but it
- 9:08Speaker 1: is a good thing.
- 9:10Speaker 2: I mean, people don't look at your coaches. This is
- 9:13Speaker 2: not complicated stuff. It's stuff that I can understand. But
- 9:18Speaker 2: they don't look at your coaches because they're nobody's like Vala.
- 9:24Speaker 2: You know, he's been part of the resuscitation of the
- 9:27Speaker 2: Oklahoma defense. Halberd Venables wants to run the defense. It
- 9:32Speaker 2: has a lot to do with each level doing their job.
- 9:36Speaker 2: You know, Clemson when he was there, they had great
- 9:39Speaker 2: defensive backs. You know, coming coming through there, you you
- 9:44Speaker 2: need the defensive backs to be in position to be
- 9:46Speaker 2: able to tackle well and to not you know, painic
- 9:49Speaker 2: under pressure, and you saw you know, even Courtland. Early
- 9:53Speaker 2: this year, you get great athletes in here. You know,
- 9:58Speaker 2: we've had several, we had gentry. You know, you look
- 10:01Speaker 2: at Canai Walker when he was here, he you know,
- 10:03Speaker 2: he played really really well Woody Washington, you know, hampered
- 10:07Speaker 2: by some speed, and you know, he was playing really well.
- 10:11Speaker 2: And then this year you've got the two guys, and
- 10:13Speaker 2: so what happens is people start going, Okay, so this
- 10:16Speaker 2: guy can actually coach too. And you look at the
- 10:21Speaker 2: names that he's been. I mean, he's already been with
- 10:23Speaker 2: the Chiefs, he's been at Texas, he's been in Alabama,
- 10:26Speaker 2: he's been at Georgia, he's been at Oklahoma. So what's happening.
- 10:30Speaker 2: You got relationships going on right now with the Buffalo Bills.
- 10:35Speaker 2: That is that's that's good news, right because now people
- 10:39Speaker 2: within the Buffalo Bills organization, they're checking out and what's
- 10:42Speaker 2: going on. You know, if I does go to the
- 10:46Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills, then you know that he's going to have
- 10:48Speaker 2: a good eye for somebody who you know, like a
- 10:52Speaker 2: CANi Walker. If that was the situation, they'll take a
- 10:55Speaker 2: flyer on Canai in the later rounds and get him
- 10:58Speaker 2: drafted because of you know, his familiarity with him, and
- 11:01Speaker 2: you know, as these guys, Eli goes into his junior
- 11:04Speaker 2: year Courtland, and his sophomore year you got Jacoby also Knukomb.
- 11:09Speaker 2: I mean, he puts a lot of eyes and you
- 11:11Speaker 2: got another guy who these were dudes that he coached.
- 11:14Speaker 2: He knows what their strengths are and when they need
- 11:16Speaker 2: a corner, they're gonna come call in here. So I
- 11:19Speaker 2: think just the names getting thrown out with Oklahoma and
- 11:22Speaker 2: another coach potentially going to NFL. I know it's I
- 11:25Speaker 2: know a couple of people, especially after the hot situation,
- 11:29Speaker 2: wish that it.
- 11:29Speaker 3: Might be DeMarco ahead into the NFL. But right now
- 11:33Speaker 3: it is javel I being looked at.
- 11:34Speaker 2: And I'll back up what you said to wrap up
- 11:37Speaker 2: this filibuster here is he's not actually trying to leave.
- 11:44Speaker 2: People are keeping knocking on Jay's door and say, hey,
- 11:48Speaker 2: well would it.
- 11:49Speaker 3: Take you to come here? I think he likes where
- 11:52Speaker 3: he's at here.
- 11:53Speaker 1: No, you could tell he's been here since twenty twenty two.
- 11:55Speaker 1: He's been here since the inaugural staff. I mean, hick,
- 11:58Speaker 1: he could have left when the the first bad season
- 12:00Speaker 1: hit was like now I'm gonna be a part his crap,
- 12:03Speaker 1: he been here and he and this is actually I
- 12:05Speaker 1: think the good thing too for him is this is
- 12:07Speaker 1: the first year that he actually got to use his
- 12:14Speaker 1: own recruits like this is that the first four he had,
- 12:18Speaker 1: they were bringing in a lot of transfers to kind
- 12:21Speaker 1: of fill the spots, and then this year was it
- 12:24Speaker 1: was literally, I mean, you've got Eli, You've got Courtland.
- 12:29Speaker 1: You Gentry is the only one that he didn't technically recruit,
- 12:32Speaker 1: but he was a part of that gentry. When Gentry
- 12:35Speaker 1: got here. Same thing with Jacobi Johnson. You start to
- 12:40Speaker 1: see him Defond Jordans. All of those kids were a
- 12:44Speaker 1: part of him, were actually recruiting, not players they had
- 12:47Speaker 1: to transfer in. So he had that now coach, one
- 12:52Speaker 1: coach that we went after, and this is why Velia
- 12:54Speaker 1: is being really looked at by the Bills. Also, we
- 12:56Speaker 1: know Jay Vealai really wants to be a DC. One day,
- 12:59Speaker 1: He's gonna be a DC and there's nothing against him.
- 13:02Speaker 1: We know why preventables is your head coach, and he's
- 13:05Speaker 1: pretty good at it. And I think that they're gonna
- 13:06Speaker 1: stick to that for as long as possible and keep
- 13:11Speaker 1: this defense similar in growth as we saw at Clemson. So,
- 13:15Speaker 1: like I said, there's nothing against Vlias, just this is
- 13:17Speaker 1: Revnable's defense. And so for him to be able to
- 13:19Speaker 1: branch out into his own thing, to get to become
- 13:21Speaker 1: a DC, which we know he wants to, he needs
- 13:23Speaker 1: to go somewhere else. Buffalo is looking at him because
- 13:28Speaker 1: Jim Leonard, who played football Wisconsin and we were looking
- 13:34Speaker 1: at as DC like a couple of years ago, is
- 13:37Speaker 1: now the DC for the Buffalo Bills. They played at
- 13:41Speaker 1: Wisconsin together. So kind of like you mentioned earlier, Coop
- 13:45Speaker 1: and I talked about before, it makes sense that Val
- 13:50Speaker 1: will be looked at by them because they know each
- 13:53Speaker 1: other and he's seeing the stuff that he's doing here
- 13:57Speaker 1: and what he's building the live going back to the
- 14:01Speaker 1: NFL makes sense now. I don't want to lose him,
- 14:06Speaker 1: and I know Oklahoma is working to retain him, but
- 14:09Speaker 1: at one makes sense for him to go to the
- 14:12Speaker 1: NFL because he's got a connection there and it's the
- 14:15Speaker 1: and it's the new regime there at Buffalo, so it's
- 14:18Speaker 1: not a situation where he go in he can instantly
- 14:20Speaker 1: get fired. He's most likely gonna get the two to
- 14:22Speaker 1: three years at minimum at the job. And if he's
- 14:25Speaker 1: gonna get a minimum three with the new head coach,
- 14:28Speaker 1: why not, you may as well go up there. And
- 14:31Speaker 1: you got you know, Josh Allen is your quarterback. So
- 14:34Speaker 1: you got the big the big buffalo running around himself
- 14:37Speaker 1: and all I got to do is to get that
- 14:38Speaker 1: defense up to par.
- 14:40Speaker 2: Yeah, And I mean, let's let's be honest. You you
- 14:45Speaker 2: want to go and get yourself into a situation where
- 14:48Speaker 2: you got a good quarterback, because if you got a
- 14:51Speaker 2: good quarterback, you have a chance. And you know, Josh
- 14:54Speaker 2: Allen is borderline MVP level guy. And so I mean
- 14:58Speaker 2: if you can get up there and and help out
- 15:00Speaker 2: that defense, you know, that's that's one of the places
- 15:03Speaker 2: that they they really got to do. I mean, Denver
- 15:06Speaker 2: had a putrid, putrid offense and you know they threw
- 15:09Speaker 2: up you know, thirty plus on him. So yeah, you know,
- 15:12Speaker 2: if it happens, I think that there's a lot of names.
- 15:15Speaker 2: I think there's an internal uh you know, upgrade that
- 15:17Speaker 2: you can make or I guess not upgrade, but you
- 15:20Speaker 2: can promote internally.
- 15:22Speaker 3: We've got other defense backs coaches.
- 15:24Speaker 2: I think the guy out at San Francisco is a
- 15:27Speaker 2: is an Oklahoma guy. There's a lot of people out
- 15:31Speaker 2: there and if you look at this defense and that
- 15:34Speaker 2: there's going to be a line and you know, all
- 15:36Speaker 2: he has to do is pick up the phone. And
- 15:37Speaker 2: we talked about it last week. You know, obviously if
- 15:40Speaker 2: he went to Notre Dame, no recruits are following him
- 15:43Speaker 2: because you can't leave if your position coach takes a
- 15:46Speaker 2: different job.
- 15:47Speaker 3: Yeah, position coach, it would.
- 15:50Speaker 2: Be great if you could go get if you go
- 15:53Speaker 2: get somebody from the ranks of the NFL that'd come in,
- 15:56Speaker 2: or just you know, stay with your You know that
- 15:59Speaker 2: the the synchronization that you have internally. You know, so
- 16:04Speaker 2: it will probably be talking about it and again on Wednesday.
- 16:07Speaker 2: I think that we'll probably know what the decision is
- 16:09Speaker 2: by then. But oh, you is trying to trying to
- 16:13Speaker 2: keep them and they just had the Border Regions meetings
- 16:15Speaker 2: and so yeah, you know, salary wise and showing him
- 16:18Speaker 2: how important he is.
- 16:19Speaker 3: He wants to be a DC, Yeah, he does.
- 16:23Speaker 1: He wants to be a DC. That that is his
- 16:25Speaker 1: his entire ambition and goal as a coach. And as
- 16:28Speaker 1: you mentioned, shout out to George Stoyer, he dropped the numbers.
- 16:31Speaker 1: The Border Regents meeting did happen and Javeli agreed to
- 16:34Speaker 1: a new contract as of right now, which doesn't mean
- 16:38Speaker 1: that he won't leave, but it means he's getting paid.
- 16:40Speaker 1: But this is the salaries currently right now, as they
- 16:42Speaker 1: everybody's contract got an extension for at least one year.
- 16:46Speaker 1: Some got the two year. Jason Witten's got his two years,
- 16:52Speaker 1: so he's at six seventy five. Baits has moved up
- 16:55Speaker 1: to one point five, beating Bow got a little bit
- 16:57Speaker 1: of a bump to one point two. Chavis is now
- 16:59Speaker 1: at one. A lot of your front office staff members
- 17:04Speaker 1: are in here. From Lake Dawson, I think he's actually
- 17:09Speaker 1: the only one in here. Yeah, he actually is only one.
- 17:11Speaker 1: But you still got the end James Dobson from our
- 17:14Speaker 1: new strength coach. You got Roger Denny, who's the new
- 17:17Speaker 1: ad got his number in here. All of this from
- 17:19Speaker 1: the Border Regent stuff, the shout out George Stoyer appreciate Hi.
- 17:21Speaker 1: From Sooner Scoop Gorrita's article. He breaks it down. The
- 17:25Speaker 1: only name missing is DeMarco Murray. But DeMarco Murray's contract
- 17:29Speaker 1: was already extended when Ohio State was going after him,
- 17:32Speaker 1: and so he's extended up until twenty twenty seven. So
- 17:37Speaker 1: everybody on here is twenty twenty eight, except for the Lie.
- 17:41Speaker 1: He just got a one year extension, which means he
- 17:43Speaker 1: could potentially bounce out if he wants to. DeMarco Murray
- 17:46Speaker 1: is still sitting at twenty twenty seven as well, But
- 17:48Speaker 1: everybody else here really has got a contract all the
- 17:50Speaker 1: way to twenty twenty eight, which is quite fascinating.
- 17:53Speaker 2: What's crazy is you look at Todd Baits beating Bow Chavis,
- 17:59Speaker 2: I mean, hell even Fuly and Brandon Hall, and this
- 18:03Speaker 2: is what some like smaller schools were paying their coaches
- 18:05Speaker 2: like five years ago. They're head coaches, and so you
- 18:10Speaker 2: you continue to produce, you're gonna get more money, right,
- 18:14Speaker 2: and I know that. Uh there's certain people who would say, well,
- 18:18Speaker 2: you know, does Beienbad deserve a raise? Does you know
- 18:22Speaker 2: this coach deserve a raise? It's this is a big
- 18:28Speaker 2: year for a lot of those guys. I think DeMarco Murray,
- 18:30Speaker 2: Emmett Jones, we really want to see Bill bidenbow you know,
- 18:34Speaker 2: with this offensive line, not all being freshmen, you know,
- 18:39Speaker 2: being together for an entire year.
- 18:42Speaker 3: Just got to continue to help it out.
- 18:44Speaker 2: It's going to be it's going to be, uh, I
- 18:48Speaker 2: think we're gonna have more of these conversations probably next
- 18:50Speaker 2: year in the following year about guys who are getting
- 18:55Speaker 2: looked at to be poached from somewhere else. Yeah, it's
- 18:58Speaker 2: it's it's going to keep happening because I know that
- 19:01Speaker 2: Bates and Hall probably are the ones I worry about
- 19:04Speaker 2: the least.
- 19:05Speaker 3: But guys like Chavis Valai, those guys that.
- 19:09Speaker 2: They you know, they're they're up and comers, and sometimes
- 19:12Speaker 2: somebody's going to offer them a pretty hefty penny to,
- 19:15Speaker 2: you know, to to head out.
- 19:17Speaker 1: To be honest, the only coach on the defensive side
- 19:21Speaker 1: of the ball that I feel like will leave. Truly,
- 19:27Speaker 1: it's only really only two guys, Wes Goodwin as well
- 19:29Speaker 1: as Nate Dryling, because they're the linebacker guys. Bbe's the
- 19:32Speaker 1: linebacker guy. I could see them getting promoted. I could
- 19:36Speaker 1: see Dryling getting a DC job again, he's been a
- 19:40Speaker 1: DC before. I could totally see him doing that. West
- 19:42Speaker 1: was the DC at Clemson, and this year you don't
- 19:45Speaker 1: see him on there as well because he got a
- 19:47Speaker 1: two year deal. It's making like two hundred, but he
- 19:50Speaker 1: also had a three point one million I'll a buyout
- 19:53Speaker 1: from Clemson because they fired him with calls without calls.
- 19:56Speaker 1: So because of that, he's getting paid like one point
- 20:00Speaker 1: four and then well he like a two hundred thousand
- 20:02Speaker 1: dollars discount because of him coming here and taking the job.
- 20:07Speaker 1: But he's the only other person right like he Those
- 20:12Speaker 1: two are ones I could see leaving. I don't see
- 20:15Speaker 1: anybody else going nowhere. I actually don't see Baits, I
- 20:17Speaker 1: don't see Chaves. I don't see either one of them
- 20:19Speaker 1: wanting to leave. It appears that BEV has built himself
- 20:23Speaker 1: a culture on the defensive side of the ball that
- 20:26Speaker 1: honestly is similar to what you've seen with some with
- 20:30Speaker 1: like a Saban in his younger years, like cursic Nati
- 20:35Speaker 1: up there Indiana, Like I've been telling, you know, preaching
- 20:37Speaker 1: this to folks numerous times. Of Indiana's success is continuity.
- 20:41Speaker 1: That offensive coordinator defensive coordinator has been with him since
- 20:44Speaker 1: like twenty fourteen. Imagine having those guys starting a position,
- 20:50Speaker 1: coaches to d c's and sticking with you this entire
- 20:52Speaker 1: time for going on twelve years. Yeah, it's pretty easy
- 20:57Speaker 1: to make sure nothing gets screwed up if your guys
- 20:59Speaker 1: sticker around, because you know they like you, and they
- 21:02Speaker 1: like how you run things. So people do will have
- 21:04Speaker 1: ambitions and want to bounce. But think with SIG's age,
- 21:08Speaker 1: by the time he retires and those dudes want to
- 21:11Speaker 1: go do other things, which he may have another five
- 21:13Speaker 1: ten years, they may save him five ten years. I
- 21:15Speaker 1: could stick here and then go somewhere else. BV did it.
- 21:18Speaker 1: You know he's only had three jobs, three different schools.
- 21:22Speaker 1: He's he stuck it out to get jobs where he
- 21:28Speaker 1: knew that there was a true opportunity for sex a success.
- 21:31Speaker 1: He didn't want the he didn't want those fixer uppers,
- 21:36Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Yeah, well, he wanted a
- 21:38Speaker 1: success story.
- 21:40Speaker 2: I mean, if you're Michel Chavis, you are making a
- 21:43Speaker 2: million dollars, you keep on producing, which with some of
- 21:47Speaker 2: the guys that you have coming up now like it's
- 21:49Speaker 2: going to continue and your name starts, you know, continues
- 21:53Speaker 2: to rise up those those rankings in those lists of
- 21:57Speaker 2: you know, best defensive line coaches, et cetera. And I
- 22:01Speaker 2: mean if you went and took the DC job at
- 22:04Speaker 2: a Penn State or something like that, I mean you're
- 22:06Speaker 2: gonna get about a half a million dollar bump, and
- 22:09Speaker 2: then you got to reinstate everything, and sometimes that that
- 22:13Speaker 2: shine can go away for a little bit. Now obviously
- 22:16Speaker 2: if it you know, it blows it out, then then
- 22:20Speaker 2: you you're going to continue to rise. But you know
- 22:23Speaker 2: what you have here, You've got great support here. I
- 22:27Speaker 2: mean Revevitables took a chance on Mikhael Chavis and elevated him.
- 22:32Speaker 2: And I promise you where I think that loyalty can
- 22:36Speaker 2: sometimes bite you, it can also it can also help
- 22:39Speaker 2: you out quite a bit.
- 22:40Speaker 1: It can elevate you a lot, exactly, it can elevate
- 22:42Speaker 1: you a lot, especially if you're with a coach that
- 22:44Speaker 1: makes sure that he's taking care of you. And that's
- 22:45Speaker 1: what Beebe's been known for. He's been takes care of
- 22:48Speaker 1: his people. Gotta love that. All Right, we have a

- 24:03Speaker 1: give us five stars. Coop, we got ourselves another pickup
- 24:07Speaker 1: out of where Transfer Portal. Now, I know, I know,
- 24:14Speaker 1: I know a lot of you are trying to figure
- 24:16Speaker 1: out how and the heck are we picking up people
- 24:20Speaker 1: out of the transfer portal steel Well, very easy to
- 24:25Speaker 1: tell you. Portal was closed for entry. They're not closed
- 24:28Speaker 1: for signature. We picked up offense a litman Fred Henson
- 24:34Speaker 1: offense a limony is an Eastern Kentucky. Let me explain
- 24:38Speaker 1: to you why this is actually a solid pickup for
- 24:40Speaker 1: US six four to three hundred and what's that eighteen pounds?
- 24:47Speaker 1: He has solid grades on two four to seven as
- 24:51Speaker 1: far as a PFF. But the big thing is he
- 24:53Speaker 1: adds you more depth for the practice field. He's played
- 24:56Speaker 1: a lot of snaps, three hundred and eighty snaps last season,
- 25:02Speaker 1: did okay against Louisville, one of the bigger games he
- 25:05Speaker 1: played in. But he brings you a bunch of snaps
- 25:07Speaker 1: and he does a really good job of, like I said,
- 25:10Speaker 1: adding depth. The other thing is he played at IMG
- 25:13Speaker 1: Academy with David Stone and Jaydon Jackson, so two familiar
- 25:17Speaker 1: faces remembers him. Running joke is he actually chose to
- 25:20Speaker 1: come back and battle them again in practice. That's a
- 25:23Speaker 1: brave man because he did deal with him at practice
- 25:26Speaker 1: at IMG. But I like to pick up at his
- 25:30Speaker 1: size because what we need now just additional depth. We
- 25:34Speaker 1: lost a lot of veterans that weren't gonna get to play,
- 25:39Speaker 1: but he gives you two more years of someone that
- 25:41Speaker 1: can go out there in battle, maybe work his way in,
- 25:43Speaker 1: or he's really good in the practice side. I like
- 25:46Speaker 1: to pick up.
- 25:49Speaker 2: One of the reasons why the injuries kept on happening
- 25:52Speaker 2: to some of the younger guys, like an Autry Dent
- 25:55Speaker 2: was the fact that so many other guys were hurt
- 25:58Speaker 2: and so his practice snaps were extremely elevated as he's
- 26:02Speaker 2: trying to come back from an injury. And so this
- 26:06Speaker 2: is great because you don't I mean, I talk about
- 26:09Speaker 2: this all the time in early in the season, early
- 26:14Speaker 2: in the you know, in spring camp, fall camp, you
- 26:17Speaker 2: got to be able to if you're Bill Beate and Bow,
- 26:19Speaker 2: you got to be able to pull a foe Ja
- 26:22Speaker 2: to the side, pull a you know, an epl to
- 26:24Speaker 2: the side, pull you know FASUSI off and say all right,
- 26:28Speaker 2: so this is the stap that this is what I
- 26:30Speaker 2: wanted you to do different. This is this is you know,
- 26:32Speaker 2: some coaching moments. You need those times, and you can't
- 26:36Speaker 2: do that if you're running out you know, a rotation
- 26:39Speaker 2: of three tackles.
- 26:40Speaker 3: It just it just doesn't work. I like his full expectation.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Do I expect him to to do anything help us
- 26:49Speaker 2: win a game or anything like that.
- 26:51Speaker 3: No, I don't do.
- 26:52Speaker 2: I expect him to be one of the guys that
- 26:55Speaker 2: trots out there, you know, if you know week one,
- 26:58Speaker 2: if we're up, you know, several touchdowns in the late
- 27:02Speaker 2: third quarter.
- 27:02Speaker 3: I do.
- 27:03Speaker 2: I think he's a guy that you know that he's
- 27:05Speaker 2: got a pedigree. He had some really good run blocking grades.
- 27:09Speaker 2: He had some really good pass blocking grades. I always
- 27:12Speaker 2: mentioned also Jay, when you bring a guy like Fred
- 27:16Speaker 2: Hinton over here and you put him with Bill Beidenbou,
- 27:18Speaker 2: he does pretty good at coaching offensive linemen. Regardless of
- 27:23Speaker 2: what everybody wants to think. He's a good he's good
- 27:25Speaker 2: at it. And so for Fred he comes here and
- 27:29Speaker 2: he gets that opportunity, maybe he's a backup. He can
- 27:32Speaker 2: go try to make an NFL squad here in a
- 27:34Speaker 2: couple of years and say yeah, yeah, you know it's
- 27:36Speaker 2: coach Beatenbou.
- 27:38Speaker 3: You know Kanseiy Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles. So many of these.
- 27:41Speaker 2: Teams who have a Beaten Boau project and you know
- 27:45Speaker 2: player on their team, they'll bring him in because they
- 27:48Speaker 2: know he was coach Dry. Yeah, you can't tell me
- 27:51Speaker 2: that you know Anton Harrison, who is you know, doing
- 27:55Speaker 2: a pretty good job down in there Jacksonville, you know,
- 27:57Speaker 2: playing on a great team, that that that's what they're
- 28:01Speaker 2: looking for. Then what can I expect from this guy?
- 28:03Speaker 2: Can I expect a work ethic? Can I expect some toughness?
- 28:06Speaker 2: And so again, I just I say it's great depth piece.
- 28:10Speaker 2: If Asusi does roll up an ankle at some point
- 28:12Speaker 2: and you need another tackle, you want somebody who's got
- 28:15Speaker 2: some game time experience, and you don't I mean as
- 28:18Speaker 2: much as I would like to say that throwing in
- 28:21Speaker 2: a young guy would be a good idea too, Like,
- 28:24Speaker 2: you know what you have in him, you want your
- 28:25Speaker 2: young guys to go unseat him at that backup, not
- 28:28Speaker 2: just rely on the young guy.
- 28:32Speaker 1: Yeah, it's true that that's one hundred percent spot on.
- 28:36Speaker 1: And with how young this line already is, dudes have
- 28:45Speaker 1: to actually have some dollar get him to want to
- 28:46Speaker 1: come here and play behind these guys. Think about that, ye, Like,
- 28:49Speaker 1: you've got two true sophomores, a red shirt sophomore, a
- 28:56Speaker 1: red shirt junior, and a red shirt senior on this
- 28:59Speaker 1: line like that's possibly two years before you can probably
- 29:04Speaker 1: take one of their spots because we know they're talented.
- 29:06Speaker 1: We are all high on Epo or high on Fasusi
- 29:09Speaker 1: and Foge at least those three. Now the peeples got
- 29:12Speaker 1: to decide, Okay, can I come in here and try
- 29:13Speaker 1: to push Heath who when he started he was pretty solid,
- 29:17Speaker 1: so he got hurt. He was coming in his own
- 29:20Speaker 1: he was starting to get nasty out there. Can you
- 29:22Speaker 1: take his role? Are you gonna take take michaela center spot?
- 29:25Speaker 1: Or are you gonna surpass you know, uh Caleb who
- 29:28Speaker 1: just came in, and mari Ann Harris who he brought in,
- 29:32Speaker 1: or even the young guys in the back, Daniel Akin
- 29:34Speaker 1: Kumi who's already there, Darius Avalava. You got on the
- 29:37Speaker 1: list of players on that line that you gotta ask
- 29:39Speaker 1: a questions of can I beat them? And not everybody's
- 29:41Speaker 1: comfortable with saying they can beat them. That is gonna
- 29:45Speaker 1: be where the challenge comes in for is there anybody
- 29:49Speaker 1: else trying to come into this? So it's interesting because
- 29:58Speaker 1: we need those bodies for practice, Like you said, healthy bodies.
- 30:02Speaker 1: A lot of the guys that left were the ones
- 30:04Speaker 1: that were unfortunately dealing with injuries here and there. Yeah,
- 30:11Speaker 1: that is not something that I was gonna I expected
- 30:21Speaker 1: us to actually be able to win as having another
- 30:23Speaker 1: player with a little bit more age come in and
- 30:27Speaker 1: be able to compete. But I love it. I'm happy
- 30:29Speaker 1: that we were healthier so far. Knock on Wood, we
- 30:35Speaker 1: didn't bring in a good one. I actually enjoy the
- 30:38Speaker 1: fact that we brought him, and I think he'd be
- 30:39Speaker 1: good for practice again. This dude at the Battle at
- 30:43Speaker 1: the Battlestony, as well as Jane Jackson.
- 30:48Speaker 2: And it's more snaps returning, and you're gonna start seeing
- 30:53Speaker 2: those lists come up about what teams are returning the
- 30:56Speaker 2: most amount of snaps. It's just, you know, Drew hundred percent.
- 31:01Speaker 2: Any depth on the old line is going to help.
- 31:03Speaker 2: I've got to have guys there, right, You don't you
- 31:06Speaker 2: don't want to be relying on Deacon Schmidt before, I mean,
- 31:13Speaker 2: because you don't want to be relying on Deacon Schmidt,
- 31:16Speaker 2: who is coming in as a true freshman, has not
- 31:18Speaker 2: played a snap of college football right from the get go. Now,
- 31:21Speaker 2: if he comes and takes someone's job, sure that's great,
- 31:25Speaker 2: but it's still you're relying on What does that look
- 31:29Speaker 2: like you saw what FASUSI and FOJ dealt with on
- 31:32Speaker 2: multiple occasions.
- 31:34Speaker 3: EPL.
- 31:35Speaker 2: Also, like when you're young, I mean you're playing in
- 31:39Speaker 2: the SEC, you're also going to be playing Michigan. Every
- 31:43Speaker 2: single one of those teams has a has an absolute
- 31:48Speaker 2: I mean just as an absolute you know, stock defensive line.
- 31:51Speaker 2: They're SEC athletes up and down the board, and you
- 31:54Speaker 2: can't I mean, even the bad defensive lines in the
- 31:57Speaker 2: SEC still are much better than you know of the
- 32:00Speaker 2: ones in other conferences.
- 32:02Speaker 3: So there are.
- 32:03Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta you gotta keep it because I mean,
- 32:05Speaker 2: like those are those are big boys and big bodies
- 32:07Speaker 2: and big athletes that you're playing weekend and week.
- 32:09Speaker 1: Out, weekend, week out, So yeah, they're all there a
- 32:15Speaker 1: lot of challenges. But we'll see what that looks like. Uh, Jeremy,
- 32:25Speaker 1: if you can get get us a contact, make it happen.
- 32:32Speaker 1: Uh oho, A lie. I don't mind if he leaves.
- 32:35Speaker 1: I want him to stay, but I don't mind. I
- 32:37Speaker 1: think we've actually got backups for it. That's the good part.
- 32:41Speaker 2: I want him to stay, But if he leaves, I'm
- 32:44Speaker 2: not I mean I'm not. We're not going to have
- 32:46Speaker 2: like an emergency pod.
- 32:47Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not gonna fall apart if if he goes.
- 32:53Speaker 2: Yeah, now, if we got a note that Miguel Chavis
- 32:56Speaker 2: was leaving Todd Baits.
- 32:58Speaker 1: I fight somebody. Someone would die, someone would die. Just
- 33:09Speaker 1: f why don't you dere tech? Don't you? Don't you
- 33:13Speaker 1: touch my Chaves? Just so y'all know that I'd fight something.
- 33:18Speaker 3: Know what that means, but it's okay, all right.
- 33:21Speaker 1: No one knows what it means. But it's provocative these
- 33:24Speaker 1: people going, that's exactly what it is. But no, I,
- 33:31Speaker 1: like I said, I not heartbroken that if Chaves would
- 33:36Speaker 1: bates Chaves, they they I'd cry.
- 33:41Speaker 3: No one touches your Chavis, no to Chaves.
- 33:45Speaker 1: Period. Don't y'all make jokes out of that either, because
- 33:48Speaker 1: it's not. Sorry Kyle, stop, you were not supposed to
- 33:52Speaker 1: do that. All right, But I'm I'm happy with the
- 33:57Speaker 1: Fred hit and pick up. I expect us to pick
- 34:00Speaker 1: up more. I'm just gonna tell you on that now.
- 34:05Speaker 1: I have a feeling that this isn't it. They're gonna
- 34:09Speaker 1: be probably one or two more pickups over the next.
- 34:30Speaker 3: We need the Jeopardy music for you right now.
- 34:32Speaker 1: I know, right I'm trying to calculate it. I'm thinking
- 34:34Speaker 1: that over the next in the next couple of months,
- 34:37Speaker 1: I think, actually, yeah, I think April you may actually
- 34:40Speaker 1: even I think April's probably will probably see more pickups.
- 34:43Speaker 1: Post spring games. You'll see some of those players will
- 34:48Speaker 1: be chilling because they know that they don't they they're
- 34:57Speaker 1: gonna need more bodies, and that's when you're gonna see
- 35:03Speaker 1: us uh, probably add some players in what I've called
- 35:08Speaker 1: I've coined the synthetic portal window. Basically, a lot of
- 35:14Speaker 1: these kids that don't have homes right now, that haven't
- 35:17Speaker 1: found homes will probably not find homes because classes are
- 35:20Speaker 1: beginning to start and they're gonna chill because loans, their
- 35:24Speaker 1: grades are fine, they'll be just fine whatever. You probably
- 35:26Speaker 1: go to local community colleges or whatever, and when schools
- 35:29Speaker 1: start to start dealing with injuries, you'll pick up the
- 35:33Speaker 1: phone and call them to come in. And so some
- 35:36Speaker 1: of them is gonna probably wait enroll in the summertime instead.
- 35:40Speaker 2: And I think there's a culture portion also, because I mean,
- 35:44Speaker 2: you're not gonna be able to pick up guys who
- 35:47Speaker 2: aren't in the portal right now, like they've got to
- 35:50Speaker 2: not have a home because something's gonna happen. Something's gonna
- 35:54Speaker 2: happen to where somebody's gonna go in a spring what
- 35:57Speaker 2: they thought was going to happen as far as their
- 36:01Speaker 2: position doesn't. And then they're gonna try to bounce in
- 36:03Speaker 2: the portal or they're gonna you know, you're gonna see
- 36:05Speaker 2: somebody who says, I'm hitting the transfer portal.
- 36:09Speaker 3: You can't. We can't have that, Like, that's not gonna happen.
- 36:11Speaker 2: So it's gonna have to be some of the guys
- 36:12Speaker 2: who are homeless, and then there's gonna be a petitioned
- 36:15Speaker 2: to you know, join school late. But yeah, I think
- 36:18Speaker 2: there's a few more I think that you could still.
- 36:22Speaker 2: I think you still look at, you know, another defensive
- 36:26Speaker 2: back of some sort, linebacker, the tackle.
- 36:29Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 36:30Speaker 2: If there's any other positions really that you want to
- 36:34Speaker 2: try to try to do, because I think, I mean,
- 36:36Speaker 2: you're you feel pretty good about your depth throughout this
- 36:39Speaker 2: whole team. If you want to get if you want
- 36:42Speaker 2: to get a practice body at you know, at linebacker,
- 36:44Speaker 2: defensive tackle, something like that.
- 36:47Speaker 3: Again, they're gonna have to have some dog.
- 36:48Speaker 2: They're gonna have to have a little bit of that
- 36:51Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield, you know, where you've got a guy who
- 36:55Speaker 2: just came off of a great game and decides to
- 36:58Speaker 2: come on in. You know, maybe you know there was
- 37:01Speaker 2: rumors a couple of days weeks ago.
- 37:03Speaker 3: I'm not sure.
- 37:04Speaker 2: Recently about a quarterback, you know, potentially picking up a quarterback.
- 37:08Speaker 2: I don't think it happened. So we'll see, we'll see
- 37:11Speaker 2: what happens. There's just been quiet, there's still probably tweets.
- 37:14Speaker 1: It could probably use an additional I'd say a quarterback
- 37:17Speaker 1: will be good to have to go at all the
- 37:22Speaker 1: young arms. Me Jet New and Whitboat new Bauer have
- 37:27Speaker 1: experience with. Now a red shirt t ship. Yeah, he'd
- 37:32Speaker 1: be redshirt sophomore. So yeah, you may add another arm
- 37:38Speaker 1: to the class, which would makes sense. Another linebacker is
- 37:40Speaker 1: what we eat. Another linebacker. I think we need another
- 37:44Speaker 1: player on the I think we probably need more offensive lineman,
- 37:48Speaker 1: maybe one more running back. We did add one which
- 37:51Speaker 1: kind of went under the radar, being mcquarie. He is
- 37:58Speaker 1: the older brother of mc kel McQuary, the corner that
- 38:01Speaker 1: we signed for twenty twenty seven. His older brother has
- 38:04Speaker 1: a more year eligibility and he's actually coming to Oklahoma.
- 38:07Speaker 1: I saw him posted on the socials we talked about it,
- 38:09Speaker 1: I think slightly, but I thought that was an interesting ad.
- 38:12Speaker 1: Nice size five eleven, like two hundred pounds. But another
- 38:15Speaker 1: practice guy that you that could work his way in
- 38:18Speaker 1: get the's wrong with that? Yeah, but I do like
- 38:20Speaker 1: Wit as a backup. I do. I like Wit a lot.
- 38:25Speaker 1: I'm just curious to see who else we try, who
- 38:31Speaker 1: else we add in here. So yeah, I'm not thinking
- 38:36Speaker 1: anybody else. Do you think we actually need?
- 38:41Speaker 3: I just don't.
- 38:41Speaker 2: I don't think so there's once so I don't think
- 38:44Speaker 2: that there's needs. I think that you need to see.
- 38:48Speaker 2: We've talked about Nesta, We've talked about Marks James. I
- 38:52Speaker 2: think that both of those guys have enough promise right
- 38:55Speaker 2: now that it would be hard to say the linebacker
- 38:58Speaker 2: depth is really really thin. But yeah, you know, it's
- 39:04Speaker 2: almost like Alex Cruso for the Thunder, Like I feel
- 39:07Speaker 2: like you could throw in in an emergency situation of
- 39:11Speaker 2: Michael Boganowski or Reggie Powers, you know, if if you
- 39:14Speaker 2: had to play too Cheetahs type of a situation.
- 39:17Speaker 3: It's true, we ever got into a bad spot.
- 39:19Speaker 2: But good thing about this, you know, defensive line, is
- 39:24Speaker 2: it keeps the linebackers clean. And they're not dealing with
- 39:26Speaker 2: getting blindsided by offensive linemen all the time.
- 39:29Speaker 3: So we'll see, yeah, we'll see all right.
- 39:37Speaker 1: With all those changes, there's always a plus to see.
- 39:42Speaker 1: The w a couple of changes coming around here on

- 41:16Speaker 1: also have a channel that's dedicated to shorts only, and
- 41:19Speaker 1: so find that help us get that going. Actually, you know,
- 41:23Speaker 1: while I'm thinking about it, I'm gonna put it in
- 41:26Speaker 1: the chat. Uh let me add that into the actual
- 41:40Speaker 1: chat for you all. Just keep your eyes open on
- 41:46Speaker 1: that in the near future. Go ahead and subscribe if

- 42:19Speaker 1: that you're gonna see from I mean Coop.
- 42:23Speaker 3: Is I'm just waiting for you to accidentally say something.
- 42:31Speaker 1: I'm bad. Nothing. There's a link in the description. Go
- 42:35Speaker 1: make sure that you subscribe to that. That's where all
- 42:39Speaker 1: the shorts are going to go in the future. But yeah,
- 42:42Speaker 1: we need to get that over. I mean, we're at
- 42:43Speaker 1: twenty thousand here. I need to get that over like
- 42:45Speaker 1: a thousand. So that would be awesome if y'all can

- 42:49Speaker 1: you know, it's free. As Coop mentioned, it's free for
- 42:52Speaker 1: all of that. But new month, this is our quote
- 42:56Speaker 1: unquote new fiscal year. I guess you could call it
- 43:00Speaker 1: football season officially is college off of the season is
- 43:02Speaker 1: officially done. Since it's a new month, we can actually
- 43:05Speaker 1: start talking about all the upcoming changes and growth. So
- 43:09Speaker 1: in the description you can see go sub thank you
- 43:12Speaker 1: Stevie posting it as well. Hit that is there like
- 43:16Speaker 1: sixty something on there just created it, not I've actually
- 43:19Speaker 1: had it, but we're we're gonna be doing that, so
- 43:21Speaker 1: check it out, show some love. We're gonna grow, and
- 43:24Speaker 1: I've got some other additional big stuff that's coming down
- 43:27Speaker 1: the line. But this is our starting point. We appreciate
- 43:31Speaker 1: every single one of you because we would not be
- 43:34Speaker 1: here without you. Coop, I'm gonna give you the stage
- 43:37Speaker 1: if you want to say anything. Yeah, before we move
- 43:39Speaker 1: on to the last set of topics.
- 43:42Speaker 2: And I mean, I don't think that you mentioned this
- 43:45Speaker 2: isn't this isn't going away. So we'll always do the
- 43:48Speaker 2: sooner content and we always can keep that going on,
- 43:51Speaker 2: but you know it might be a little bit more
- 43:53Speaker 2: of a the I guess the inside you know knowledge
- 43:57Speaker 2: is more college ball engine with what we would be doing.
- 44:03Speaker 2: So keep it up and then yeah it check out
- 44:06Speaker 2: Drew the huddle up pod that's going to happen tomorrow night.
- 44:10Speaker 2: And yeah, so we've we've we've obviously you know Jay
- 44:14Speaker 2: with locked on, uh just you know, continuing to go.
- 44:17Speaker 2: But you guys know how we do it here. We
- 44:20Speaker 2: we we don't care to be the news breakers. We
- 44:24Speaker 2: want you to kind of hear what we're insinuating and
- 44:26Speaker 2: give us you know, we'll give our opinions. I think
- 44:28Speaker 2: one of the biggest reasons why I continue to do
- 44:31Speaker 2: this after you know, gracing you with my ugly mug
- 44:36Speaker 2: for the first time, was I mean, listen, I love
- 44:41Speaker 2: I love c K, I love the guys that are
- 44:43Speaker 2: a scoop.
- 44:44Speaker 3: I love Parker.
- 44:45Speaker 2: And and Brandon over there. But at the same time,
- 44:49Speaker 2: like I want to know what what I can really
- 44:53Speaker 2: kind of lean towards. And by being the first sometimes
- 44:57Speaker 2: you get stuff wrong. I mean, so by being careful
- 45:02Speaker 2: you can kind of so and yeah, we're gonna talk
- 45:06Speaker 2: about at the Senior Bowl. But but yeah, no, I
- 45:09Speaker 2: just you know, stay tuned because you know, if things
- 45:14Speaker 2: continue to go the way that they're going for this
- 45:16Speaker 2: new project, it's gonna be a pretty pretty cool thing
- 45:19Speaker 2: for us. And you know, it comes with a little
- 45:20Speaker 2: bit more access for for us just across the entire
- 45:23Speaker 2: landscape of college football.
- 45:24Speaker 1: So exactly big stuff it's gonna be exciting. I am.
- 45:30Speaker 1: I'm excited for what we're gonna try to put together
- 45:33Speaker 1: for you all and make make the magic happen, so
- 45:35Speaker 1: you'll hear and see more of us. But we'll still
- 45:37Speaker 1: keep like I said, we'll talk. We want to talk
- 45:39Speaker 1: sooner ball. I'm keep doing the lockdown thing for as
- 45:42Speaker 1: long as they'll have me. Gonna continue to do the
- 45:46Speaker 1: you know I said, what we're doing here. Our goal
- 45:48Speaker 1: is to keep you flooded with as much sooner contest possible.
- 45:51Speaker 1: If you want to hear our opinions on other stuff
- 45:53Speaker 1: and you want to look at you know me and
- 45:55Speaker 1: Coop's ugly mud, we're here for you, baby, We're here.
- 45:58Speaker 1: I know you all are themes for great college football content.
- 46:01Speaker 1: And so that leads us right into the next discussion that.
- 46:05Speaker 1: Oh boy, let me let me say this. As I
- 46:10Speaker 1: t this up, I've noticed that y'all be mad man.
- 46:19Speaker 1: Y'all have gotten so mad on these interwebs because players
- 46:24Speaker 1: unfortunately didn't do what they should have done here, but
- 46:28Speaker 1: they've done it everywhere else. Let us let's talk about
- 46:35Speaker 1: it first. I want to do some picks here for
- 46:37Speaker 1: the Super Bowl. Let's make sure my interwebs don't act
- 46:39Speaker 1: up on me. But you got the Super Bowl here
- 46:42Speaker 1: on Sleeper, and you can make all these great picks.
- 46:45Speaker 1: Of course, you can also make selections in NBA Hockey
- 46:48Speaker 1: and all of that. And there's my interwebs acting weird.
- 46:50Speaker 1: But it's very easy to do. Use our promo code unfair.
- 46:54Speaker 1: They'll match your first deposit at one hundred percent up
- 46:57Speaker 1: to one hundred dollars. And all you gotta do is
- 47:00Speaker 1: make really quick selections. And of course I don't want
- 47:02Speaker 1: to get that nobody it doesn't want to let me
- 47:04Speaker 1: make picks right now, all this disrespect. But the good
- 47:07Speaker 1: thing is a I gotta do is pick two or
- 47:09Speaker 1: more players, pick more or less on the stats, and
- 47:12Speaker 1: that's it. Turn your game days into pay days. I
- 47:15Speaker 1: try to get some some picks here for the super Bowl,
- 47:17Speaker 1: but we'll do that later this week. So check us out.
- 47:22Speaker 1: Use the promo code unfair. We'll match you at one
- 47:24Speaker 1: hundred percent two hundred dollars. Terms can just supply Sea
- 47:26Speaker 1: Sleepers Terms of use for details. Thank y'all again for
- 47:34Speaker 1: pulling up at the light button. If you need to
- 47:35Speaker 1: the chance subscribe rate review give us five stars. Uh
- 47:38Speaker 1: coop Senior Bowl. First off, G Baby cooking. G Baby's
- 47:44Speaker 1: a beast. I don't care nobody say G Baby on it.
- 47:47Speaker 1: We're gonna talk recruiting lasts, so stick around for that
- 47:50Speaker 1: because the coaching staff has been on the road. Baby,
- 47:54Speaker 1: They are out there seeing the recruits that y'all want.
- 47:57Speaker 1: But G Baby's killing it and Jade and Nott has
- 48:01Speaker 1: actually been looking really good so far in the Senior Bowl.
- 48:07Speaker 1: Why ab I so mad about it, Coop? Because I'm messy.
- 48:12Speaker 1: I know I'm messy.
- 48:15Speaker 2: It is one hundred percent here is it's the build
- 48:19Speaker 2: up and you know what I just typed in the chat.
- 48:23Speaker 2: The build up changes expectations. Some people don't do well
- 48:30Speaker 2: with big expectations. University of Texas Lane Kiffin Jade not
- 48:38Speaker 2: was getting all these accolades because he was coming over
- 48:41Speaker 2: to join a team that was, you know, a functional
- 48:45Speaker 2: offense away from some big things. He came here, he
- 48:51Speaker 2: got hit a few times, and it started coming out
- 48:56Speaker 2: long ago that he was here to increase his position
- 49:02Speaker 2: for the NFL. This doesn't surprise me. This doesn't surprise
- 49:07Speaker 2: me at all. He was very good at CAL. He
- 49:10Speaker 2: was very good at Cal. Jay like he didn't quit becoming,
- 49:13Speaker 2: you know, being a good running back. So what happens
- 49:17Speaker 2: here is he came he Uh he had preservation in mind.
- 49:23Speaker 2: Uh there's the rotation going on about him and the
- 49:26Speaker 2: sideline after contes, Lewis hit the hit the brick wall
- 49:29Speaker 2: and he's the only dude over on the sideline and
- 49:33Speaker 2: that needs I mean that can pretty much tell you.
- 49:38Speaker 3: What what it is.
- 49:40Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, he goes to the NFL com I
- 49:43Speaker 2: mean yeah, to to the Senior Bowl and he had
- 49:46Speaker 2: to show out. So this is the hardest he's tried
- 49:48Speaker 2: for over a year. This is the hardest. I mean,
- 49:52Speaker 2: he this is this is what his goal was. So
- 49:55Speaker 2: benefits of him actually going and not and looked like
- 49:57Speaker 2: a fool. I he's gonna hit the NFL and it's
- 50:02Speaker 2: going to get a tribute. He's gonna when he gets drafted,
- 50:05Speaker 2: it's gonna say running back from Oklahoma Jade not.
- 50:08Speaker 1: Yeah, he goes in the NFL and he plays good.
- 50:10Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna get credit for it now. I know,
- 50:12Speaker 1: like I said, a lot of people mad, a lot
- 50:13Speaker 1: of people upset on it. I'm not. It didn't work out,
- 50:17Speaker 1: he wasn't helped. He got hurt in spring ball, So
- 50:21Speaker 1: to me, it was the first thing, first thing he
- 50:22Speaker 1: got here, and in his first pressent he's like, yeah,
- 50:25Speaker 1: he's dude's care like no shade to my people in Cow,
- 50:28Speaker 1: but make care here like care. And I was like, Oh,
- 50:33Speaker 1: you're seeing a different animal, aren't you. You're seeing what
- 50:36Speaker 1: SEC ball is about, seeing something different. And he was
- 50:41Speaker 1: probably getting lit up in practice, if I'm just being honest,
- 50:45Speaker 1: he was getting more out and then when he heard
- 50:47Speaker 1: his shoulder, that's when you saw. That's the reason why
- 50:50Speaker 1: you had Tory Blaylock starting the season, because he was
- 50:55Speaker 1: really the only healthy back outside of what Barns that
- 50:57Speaker 1: made it through Camp X. Rob was hurt and I
- 51:00Speaker 1: was hurting, and from there it just never materialized. With
- 51:05Speaker 1: him working out. You had a few good plays from him,
- 51:08Speaker 1: You're like, Okay, we see a little bit of potential,
- 51:10Speaker 1: but you never got what you wanted out of them.
- 51:13Speaker 1: And I think it was kind of a mutual thing
- 51:15Speaker 1: of you're more of a liability in the field than
- 51:16Speaker 1: us than being a dead asset, so mutually you're he
- 51:22Speaker 1: was continuing to practice, that's the thing he was practicing.
- 51:25Speaker 1: It wasn't like he was just not there, like he
- 51:27Speaker 1: just bounced and now he's at senior bow. He's practicing.
- 51:30Speaker 1: He was dressed out for every game. He just didn't
- 51:35Speaker 1: have it, unfortunately for what we needed nor to be successful.
- 51:40Speaker 1: But I think he learned a very valuable lesson in life,
- 51:44Speaker 1: and unfortunately was an expensive one for us. So I'm
- 51:48Speaker 1: I'm not mad at him. I have zero issues with
- 51:55Speaker 1: how this has now turned out. I would have loved
- 51:56Speaker 1: to have him be more dominant, but you know, Tory
- 51:58Speaker 1: Blaylock showed up and showed out, so I'm not ain't
- 52:01Speaker 1: gonna be his pist.
- 52:02Speaker 2: I would just I mean, I'll probably the last thing
- 52:05Speaker 2: I'd like to say on it is he absolutely is
- 52:09Speaker 2: going to have those interviews come through to where they're
- 52:13Speaker 2: gonna ask him, look, when we see your performance over here,
- 52:18Speaker 2: what happened?
- 52:20Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 52:21Speaker 3: And running backs are are literally not coveted anymore.
- 52:27Speaker 1: Yeah, and he had statsai cal and that's what they're
- 52:29Speaker 1: probably gonna go after. But like all right, last year
- 52:31Speaker 1: was at that grade. He was hurt, he had we
- 52:33Speaker 1: knew he heard his show at the beginning of last season.
- 52:35Speaker 1: He hurt his ankle at the beginning of the season before,
- 52:37Speaker 1: so they're gonna ask, all right, how healthy is and
- 52:39Speaker 1: he talked about, you know, fall off the face of
- 52:41Speaker 1: the earth. He talked about how he's aid my career
- 52:44Speaker 1: is a big question. My first two seasons were pretty decent,
- 52:47Speaker 1: in the last two are pretty much. Foult the face
- 52:48Speaker 1: of the earth. He got it. Now you got to
- 52:53Speaker 1: go prove yourself and make Oklahoma look good when you
- 52:57Speaker 1: go to the NFL. That's all we ask.
- 52:59Speaker 3: Now, I expect him on Monday Night Football.
- 53:02Speaker 2: If he ever gets to do the announcement, he probably
- 53:04Speaker 2: isn't going to say anything.
- 53:05Speaker 3: I can tell you this. I'll tell you this.
- 53:08Speaker 2: He is going to have at least, you know, a
- 53:12Speaker 2: decent slide and people are going to I mean, he's
- 53:15Speaker 2: going to be a six or seventh round pick. And
- 53:18Speaker 2: I think that what's going to happen is people are
- 53:20Speaker 2: going to know and Jane, I'm pretty sure that Jim
- 53:25Speaker 2: Naggy knows a lot of GMS and he'll probably receive
- 53:29Speaker 2: a few phone calls. And I had an old boss.
- 53:34Speaker 2: Hold on, I had an old boss who said, when
- 53:39Speaker 2: people ask you about other people said, don't trash talk
- 53:43Speaker 2: him because then they wonder if it's sour grapes on
- 53:45Speaker 2: your party.
- 53:47Speaker 3: So you just do your.
- 53:48Speaker 2: Best to make it sound like you are trying to
- 53:52Speaker 2: do your best. And people who really ask those questions
- 53:55Speaker 2: they can read between the lines. And so Naggi's going
- 53:59Speaker 2: to get phone calls. DeMarco Murray's going to get phone calls.
- 54:03Speaker 2: I expect him to do their best. And when Jade
- 54:08Speaker 2: Not gets to the NFL, does he crumble again? What happens?
- 54:13Speaker 2: I mean, does he really think that you go get
- 54:15Speaker 2: drafted and let's go just kind of craziness, fourth, fifth, sixth,
- 54:20Speaker 2: seventh round And he makes it to the camp and
- 54:24Speaker 2: he's getting hit by grown ass men every single snap,
- 54:27Speaker 2: Like is he going to give it is all again?
- 54:31Speaker 2: Is he going to go for it? Because I don't
- 54:34Speaker 2: don't think cal had great defenses and so in practices
- 54:38Speaker 2: and you know in that the remnant Pac twelve, I
- 54:41Speaker 2: don't think that that he was getting hit like he
- 54:44Speaker 2: was getting hit here early on.
- 54:46Speaker 1: We'll see, we'll see it's like I said, I like
- 54:49Speaker 1: I said, I I know, no hard feelings. It didn't
- 54:51Speaker 1: work out unfortunately, but hey, we will. We'll see what
- 54:57Speaker 1: happens with him, all right. Uh, Like I said, g
- 55:00Speaker 1: maybe did great on Heinekes out there cooking soon as
- 55:04Speaker 1: represented very well at the Senior Bar and we'll talk. Yeah,
- 55:08Speaker 1: Marvin Jones Jr. Was out there dominating prices. We'll we'll
- 55:11Speaker 1: we'll go more in depth on that later this week.
- 55:13Speaker 1: I want to talk recruiting before we get up out
- 55:15Speaker 1: of here as it's starting to get late. So thank
- 55:17Speaker 1: you for pulling up Hit than like button. If youknew
- 55:20Speaker 1: to the channel, subscribe rate review, give us five stars.
- 55:23Speaker 1: Oklahoma hosted some recruits this past weekend, Coop a lot
- 55:31Speaker 1: of them, and for us it's big because we got
- 55:39Speaker 1: to see some kids that we needed to see back
- 55:41Speaker 1: in town. First off, you got to see not only
- 55:45Speaker 1: your five star linemen. I mean Cooper Hackett was here.
- 55:48Speaker 1: I do believe Penny was here as well, but you
- 55:57Speaker 1: got was was it Gus that pulled up this weekend too?
- 56:02Speaker 1: You had a lot of your big time line players
- 56:04Speaker 1: you're going after. And it's funny because my boy Stevie
- 56:06Speaker 1: g one of the mods here. He in the core
- 56:14Speaker 1: in the discord that you could check out link is
- 56:16Speaker 1: in the description below, was talking about he believes that
- 56:20Speaker 1: with the two five star lineman we have, which is
- 56:23Speaker 1: basically they're basically five star right now, that there's a
- 56:25Speaker 1: good chance that Oklahoma's line this year could this class
- 56:29Speaker 1: for twenty seven could be better than what we got
- 56:31Speaker 1: with the Fasusi Foge recruiting class.
- 56:36Speaker 3: An awful LoVa that year too.
- 56:38Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's up. That's a very tall task to me.
- 56:41Speaker 1: It's gonna really hinge on the internal guys. But like
- 56:45Speaker 1: he's not wrong because remember so Foge was top ten
- 56:48Speaker 1: and Fasusi was number one OT on most of the sites.
- 56:54Speaker 1: If Penny and Hackett end up as one two or
- 56:59Speaker 1: one five were two, did they both end up in
- 57:01Speaker 1: the top five. There's a possibility to make that argument.
- 57:06Speaker 1: I'm not even mad at it.
- 57:12Speaker 2: I think right now the best offensive lineman between Penny
- 57:16Speaker 2: and Hackett's probably Penny. I think Hackett has to league
- 57:20Speaker 2: has the higher upside. And I mean they're going there.
- 57:27Speaker 2: They they haven't even started. They haven't even started their
- 57:29Speaker 2: senior year yet, right, So we got we gotta get
- 57:32Speaker 2: our mindsets because obviously just getting micro Rhodes the twenty
- 57:35Speaker 2: eight running back, like it's these numbers in these years
- 57:39Speaker 2: and you're gonna see offers for twenty nine guys and
- 57:42Speaker 2: held probably somewhere across college football at twenty thirty guy
- 57:45Speaker 2: at some point this year. But these guys have a
- 57:48Speaker 2: full year, you know, before they're here. Hackett continues to
- 57:53Speaker 2: get bigger, he continues to get stronger, and I think
- 57:58Speaker 2: Penny is going to be I mean, he's going to
- 58:00Speaker 2: be a stud this year again. So yeah, you continue
- 58:03Speaker 2: to add this in. I mean, I I would say
- 58:06Speaker 2: Fasusi and Foje both played and obviously Mike much more,
- 58:09Speaker 2: but both played as freshman here.
- 58:13Speaker 3: That's I mean, that speaks a lot. It's Bill Beatingbo.
- 58:15Speaker 2: It's you can come in and play as a freshman
- 58:17Speaker 2: if you earn your spot and you come in and
- 58:20Speaker 2: be who we want you to be. So h I mean,
- 58:25Speaker 2: can it beat the Fasusi foj Afa Lava Like, We'll see.
- 58:30Speaker 2: We'll see if it's another one that's just as good.
- 58:35Speaker 2: I mean I would like that because it's I mean,
- 58:39Speaker 2: we see what happens. This offensive line is going to
- 58:41Speaker 2: carry us this year, and well, I say won't carry us.
- 58:45Speaker 2: Our our ceiling is has a lot, I mean has
- 58:50Speaker 2: a huge chunk of that factor comes in with what
- 58:53Speaker 2: the offensive line is. So you're gonna get some of
- 58:56Speaker 2: these twenty eight kids and twenty seven kids who go okay,
- 59:00Speaker 2: So I can come in. You know, maybe it could
- 59:03Speaker 2: play as a freshman, but those guys are young because
- 59:06Speaker 2: if Asusi balls out like this year and next year,
- 59:10Speaker 2: like his goal is to be a three and gone
- 59:13Speaker 2: like that's it.
- 59:15Speaker 1: Fo J.
- 59:15Speaker 2: Same situation. So you got Deacon Schmid already in the
- 59:21Speaker 2: fold two. So this offensive line just keeps on stacking
- 59:23Speaker 2: some of this younger talent, and you just need to
- 59:25Speaker 2: see that talent continue to progress. So, I mean, Hackett's
- 59:31Speaker 2: going to be a monster.
- 59:32Speaker 3: I think.
- 59:33Speaker 2: I think that he has everything out in front of him,
- 59:36Speaker 2: and I can promise you there's gonna be people asking questions,
- 59:40Speaker 2: you know, to Jim Naggy, to Bill beat and Bow
- 59:43Speaker 2: and saying, what's his ceiling look like?
- 59:46Speaker 3: Like is this real?
- 59:47Speaker 2: Because he's one of those guys that gets looked at
- 59:49Speaker 2: for the number one pick.
- 59:51Speaker 1: YEP. So yeah, Luke Wilson in town with Gus and
- 59:54Speaker 1: Luke Cooper Penny like you, you had a lot of
- 59:59Speaker 1: this Glass is going to really be big on the
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: offensive line. I guess you could say, as you can
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: see right now, we're a top five class in the
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: country today and I don't think it's gonna slow down,
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: like as much as Sooner Cowboy wishes that everything goes
- 1:00:15Speaker 1: backwards at Oklahoma, as he's wishing that we're just terrible
- 1:00:18Speaker 1: all the time. As he mentiones it constantly, Oklahoma's going backwards.
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: Not sure why he keeps saying it over and over,
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: but you know, Sooner Cowboys wants us to be bad,
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: and unfortunately for him, we won't be. We're continuing to
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: move forward. And is it perfect. No, it's not gonna
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: be perfect. It's gonna be some work. But the good
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: thing is is that they're doing everything that they're supposed
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: to do, getting the trail, winning on the trail getting
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: I mean you could here's a offensive line. Man, imagine
- 1:00:46Speaker 1: all of them together playing at the same time.
- 1:00:51Speaker 2: This kind of reminds me of the defensive power line
- 1:00:54Speaker 2: that we had, you know. Yeah, and I mean these
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: guys and they know each other. I think Louke Wilson
- 1:01:02Speaker 2: is another guy who we will forget to talk about
- 1:01:05Speaker 2: quite often. But I mean this guy is I mean,
- 1:01:07Speaker 2: he's a monster. Also mean, there's there's a lot of
- 1:01:10Speaker 2: talent right there. And so if you can, if you
- 1:01:12Speaker 2: pull this picture together, yeah, I think it beats Fasuso.
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: J It could. That's gonna be the fun one is
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: seeing how that actually ends up. You also had some
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: visits out in the street for position guys that y'all
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: definitely want your hands on. For example, I got Cooper Witting.
- 1:01:32Speaker 1: I thought this was fascinating because we're missing somebody. It's
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: boss exactly what are we paying him for? Why he
- 1:01:40Speaker 1: should be in every picture? Why is this man being
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: paid He ain't in every picture? Kidding, guys, I'm kidding.
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: I'm kidding as a joke. Yes, we laying him. That
- 1:01:55Speaker 1: just propels the class, propels it even well, you've we
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: got to close it.
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you have a chance to land. You know,
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: one of the top guys on offensive line. You got
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: some defensive line guys that we're still pushing out defense
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: back receiver. I mean, but Cooper Whitten in case Alexander
- 1:02:16Speaker 2: potentially as your two linebackers. Like that's where you start seeing,
- 1:02:22Speaker 2: you know, the continued elevation of the recruiting mm hm, Listen,
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: if you go six months ago, I think that a
- 1:02:32Speaker 2: lot of recruiting experts, guys like Josh mcquesten would say that,
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: you know, this is good that we're in the conversation,
- 1:02:39Speaker 2: but he's not coming to OU.
- 1:02:42Speaker 3: Now because of obviously hiring his dad.
- 1:02:46Speaker 2: I think that there's I mean, it's we're the odds
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: on favorite, like, it's not done until he shows up
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: on campus, right. But this is, uh, this is this
- 1:02:56Speaker 2: is exciting because I think that people will take it
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: for granted. I think if we landed him without his
- 1:03:02Speaker 2: dad being here, it would be a little bit sweeter.
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: But this, this would be a big get for Oklahoma,
- 1:03:06Speaker 2: and especially if you can, you know, put him with Alexander.
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: Yep, you just need him out there tight end. I mean,
- 1:03:18Speaker 1: the the recruiting at linebacker is going to be interesting
- 1:03:23Speaker 1: this year. But besides that, witting down the trail, he's
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: out seeing players, he's out taking pictures as who is
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: the Sooner cowboy telling me he's not can't take pictures.
- 1:03:38Speaker 1: That may has been in all kinds of pictures. What
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: are you talking about? You're crazy kidding. I know that
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: he's not gonna be in a picture with his son.
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: I know that part. That was one of my conturn
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: But it's been good seeing him on the trail and
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: hearing his name and people talking about it. That's huge.
- 1:03:51Speaker 3: He was in one of the pictures with Cooper Hackett.
- 1:03:56Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean that's and why because I mean
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: you're gonna learn you're gonna learn some blocking stuff from
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: from coach Witt.
- 1:04:03Speaker 1: And also, yeah, you know that'd be a big that's
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: a big plus. You can it's never a negative. Uh.
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: You know that we've spent a lot of time out there.
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: Was that in uh in Alabama is where we was
- 1:04:14Speaker 1: outseeing another player that we're definitely working on, mister Scott,
- 1:04:22Speaker 1: uh Jalen Scott. He man, if we could steal this
- 1:04:27Speaker 1: one out of that state again. We talked about him
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: last yea last last show. That would be a huge one.
- 1:04:34Speaker 1: I am very high on his hitting people. We should
- 1:04:39Speaker 1: figure out a way to make that happen.
- 1:04:42Speaker 2: You got the coach sport and you got the scheme,
- 1:04:44Speaker 2: and you got to prove concept. I mean, that's that's
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: what's happening.
- 1:04:48Speaker 3: I mean, you got.
- 1:04:51Speaker 2: Again bringing back up if you can have guys that
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: have continued to stay together, that I mean, that's what
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: you're that's what you're looking for.
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: That that that's exactly it.
- 1:05:01Speaker 2: Because while you know, say Texas is revamping some scheme,
- 1:05:06Speaker 2: new guy out there, You're like, hey, listen, you don't
- 1:05:11Speaker 2: know what's happening there. We know what's happening here. Like
- 1:05:15Speaker 2: you've seen it, You've seen it progress, you've seen it improved.
- 1:05:18Speaker 2: So yeah, you continue to go out and go after
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: This was a dream of ours. One point, Jay was
- 1:05:24Speaker 2: being in conversations with some with for some of these guys, Yeah,
- 1:05:28Speaker 2: and it almost felt like when you got when you
- 1:05:31Speaker 2: got a Latrell McCutcheon, You're like, why.
- 1:05:35Speaker 3: Would he pico you over Alabama? Like why would he
- 1:05:38Speaker 3: do that?
- 1:05:39Speaker 2: And we kind of find out that, you know, it
- 1:05:41Speaker 2: wasn't as great, but you know, now you've got the
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: proof concept on defense. A lot of these big name guys,
- 1:05:48Speaker 2: like these top end guys are are here and we're
- 1:05:52Speaker 2: starting to see, you know, starting to see not only
- 1:05:55Speaker 2: the proof concept with guys that you know weren't recruited
- 1:05:57Speaker 2: in the system, but now guys who were. And then
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: on top of that, you have a really really great
- 1:06:03Speaker 2: opportunity to take that top end talent and mix it
- 1:06:07Speaker 2: with this coaching staff. And so it's going to continue
- 1:06:11Speaker 2: to be young too, because we continue to stay young
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: on defense year in and year out because guys are
- 1:06:16Speaker 2: taking other guys' jobs.
- 1:06:18Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the good thing is it's it's a quote
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: unquote doggie dog world. But we're doing a really good
- 1:06:25Speaker 1: job of You'll can see Jason whitting here getting his
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: visiting with Coop Hackett. So he's in a picture sooner, cowboy,
- 1:06:33Speaker 1: Uh huh, tell me he ain't in that picture right there.
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: Explain to me how he's in his picture. Kidding, I'm
- 1:06:39Speaker 1: teasing you as usual, but no, No, we're doing a
- 1:06:43Speaker 1: good job of getting ourselves in the mix with a
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: lot of the big time players. Like you said that,
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: we've been wanting to get in the mix flour for years.
- 1:06:53Speaker 1: I'm happy to see that we are trending in the
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: right direction. Winning does that? I mean in twenty seven
- 1:06:59Speaker 1: class as those kids are to commit at the beginning
- 1:07:02Speaker 1: of the season, it felt like a lot of them
- 1:07:04Speaker 1: saw the vision that a lot of other fans did
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: not see. Like they saw that vision. They're like, nah,
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: I see something here. I think I get what y'all
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: are trying to do. And the next thing you know,
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: dudes are committing. You're like, oh, well, didn't see that coming.
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: Here we are and so yeah, we're transitioning very well
- 1:07:29Speaker 1: in twenty two and seven. So there's gonna be a
- 1:07:31Speaker 1: lot more I expect commitments coming down the line over
- 1:07:33Speaker 1: the next I think February's gonna be a busy month
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: for ARS. March seventh is the next big event. We
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: got a list we're putting together right now. Oh, I
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: know you were talking about sooner Cowboy talk about with
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: his son. I know that's why I was teasing about
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: teasing you on that. I knew you were talking about
- 1:07:51Speaker 1: his kid. But I do expect us to have what
- 1:07:55Speaker 1: we're building a list right now that's been put out
- 1:07:58Speaker 1: publicly for players that will be visiting for the was
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: that the Junior Day? Oh, it's Future Freaks, That's what
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: it's called. Future Freaks is March seventh. So we'll build
- 1:08:14Speaker 1: that up. As the list grows and people are on there,
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: you'll see videos from shorts from Coop, probably videos from me,
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: and we'll put that out there to prepare you all
- 1:08:26Speaker 1: for it. So yeah, that's it, Coopany last words before
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: we get the heck up out of here, and.
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: It's it's uh, it's like you gotta gotta shop and
- 1:08:43Speaker 2: visit or a shopping date, you know, a couple of
- 1:08:45Speaker 2: days after payday is what it's starting to feel like
- 1:08:48Speaker 2: when going out there for the recruiting, so I you know,
- 1:08:51Speaker 2: so we'll we'll see what happens. I mean, obviously this
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: team is going to you know, be eyeing another playoff
- 1:08:58Speaker 2: Burnt Birth and then potentially you know, making a run
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: in the Natties, So that is going to draw a
- 1:09:05Speaker 2: lot of eyeballs. To continue to prove the concept being
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: back out there, Yeah, it's I'd rather win September, October, November,
- 1:09:13Speaker 2: December than March, April, June, like our friends down south.
- 1:09:18Speaker 3: But you know, we're doing what we're supposed to be doing.
- 1:09:22Speaker 1: Yep, We'll continuing. We're continuously trending up, which is the
- 1:09:26Speaker 1: only thing that matters. So all right, I'm done for
- 1:09:30Speaker 1: the night. I've got a whole bunch of other stuff
