• 3:44
  Speaker 6: I'll take it. Good afternoon, everybody. Welcome to the program
• 3:48
  Speaker 6: here on Sports Radio AM thirteen under the Zoners, we
• 3:51
  Speaker 6: come your way from UFCU dish fark Field yet again,
• 3:54
  Speaker 6: where the Texas long Worns will play the Auburn Tigers
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: game two of the three game weekend series here at
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: the ballpark.
• 4:02
  Speaker 5: It'd say six o'clock first pitch.
• 4:05
  Speaker 6: If you're holding tickets for that, and I know it
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: says on your ticket, it probably says, well, I say
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: the digital tickets, since everything's digital these days. But on
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: the schedule where it said seven o'clock, remember it was
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: moved forward by one hour to six o'clock tonight. And
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: then tomorrow's game instead of being two in the afternoon,
• 4:23
  Speaker 6: we'll have a first pitch.
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: Of high noon.
• 4:26
  Speaker 6: It'll be at noon tomorrow for the third pitch or
• 4:31
  Speaker 6: the third game, first pitch of the third and final
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: game of that series. My name is Craig White. Thanks
• 4:36
  Speaker 6: so much for joining us this afternoon. Of course, the
• 4:39
  Speaker 6: producer back in the studio did such an outstanding job
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: bringing in that little highlight montage is the one and
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: only Cameron D.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: Parker.
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: The D on the birth certificate stands for Dallas, as
• 4:50
  Speaker 6: in his favorite pro football team that he steadfastly refuses
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: to watch, at least for the time being. But here
• 4:58
  Speaker 6: it is a very warm afternoon, and Cam, this is
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: like being at this ballpark in June for a regional
• 5:07
  Speaker 6: hot and windy with the wind blowing out toward left.
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: You know, everybody was kind of surprised that last night's
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: came was not more high scoring and that more balls
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: did not leave the ballpark. Only Kimball Schusler out to
• 5:21
  Speaker 6: left where the wind was blowing. Now, Ike Irish blasted
• 5:24
  Speaker 6: one over deep right center into the tree beyond the
• 5:27
  Speaker 6: four h five portion indinge of that right centerfield wall.
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: But it is hot, it is breezy. Hey, you made
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: it out here last night for a little bit of baseball.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: I did, Craigan, I'm right there with you.
• 5:40
  Speaker 8: I thought there was gonna be a couple more home
• 5:41
  Speaker 8: run blasts last night. Ike Irish's home run off the bat.
• 5:46
  Speaker 8: I thought, okay, maybe a pop up to left center.
• 5:49
  Speaker 8: But that thing got up in the wind and it
• 5:51
  Speaker 8: just took it over the right field fence. And but
• 5:54
  Speaker 8: fortunately for Texas Kimball Schusler, who went yard over the
• 5:57
  Speaker 8: left hand side of Dishfalnk Field. So we'll see the night.
• 6:00
  Speaker 8: But yeah, this weather, it does not feel like April eighteenth.
• 6:04
  Speaker 8: It feels more like June eighteenth. So I'm guessing the
• 6:07
  Speaker 8: bats will be a little bit more more popping today
• 6:11
  Speaker 8: and tomorrow, depending on the weather.
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: Well, and it's funny you mentioned that popping the bat
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: and depending on the weather.
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: And here's where I'm going with this.
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: Both the Oklahoma Missouri and Texas A and m Arkansas
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: series are having to play double headers today. They're expecting
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: some really inclement weather tomorrow in both the state of
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: Missouri and in the state of Arkansas. Of course, they
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: bordered one another, and so they're playing right now, game
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: one of a double header. Oklahoma's up ninety four at Missouri.
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: That's in the bottom of sixth Missouri. By the way,
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: it's owen sixteen in the SEC, but it's nine to
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: four Oklahoma. Now, for those who did not hear last night,
• 6:55
  Speaker 6: Texas A and M beat Arkansas seven to four. That,
• 6:59
  Speaker 6: coupled with the law Horn victory, now has Texas in
• 7:02
  Speaker 6: front by two full games in the SEC standings.
• 7:06
  Speaker 5: But I think a more I don't know notice, certainly.
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: To take note of is the fact that Texas A
• 7:15
  Speaker 6: and M now has won seven in a row. They
• 7:18
  Speaker 6: turned their season around. Of course, the Aggies will be
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: here next weekend, and so they're playing Game two, Game
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: two of the series, the first of a doubleheader, and
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: what happens. Jay s Laviolette just did a two run
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: homer in the top of the first, So the Aggies
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: are already out again on Arkansas. It is two to
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: nothing and they're still batting in the top of the
• 7:37
  Speaker 6: first inning.
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: On that A and M is seven and nine in
• 7:39
  Speaker 5: the league.
• 7:40
  Speaker 6: Remember they were one and nine, And they've actually won
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: eight straight games, six straight in SEC play, eight in
• 7:48
  Speaker 6: a row overall, and they're twenty two and fifteen, so
• 7:51
  Speaker 6: they're climbing back into respectability. If you finish five hundred
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: in the SEC and get beyond thirty wins, you stand
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: a decent shot of landing in a regional, which seemed
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: absolutely impossible as recent as two weeks ago. But for
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: A and M, winning that series in Knoxville against then
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: at the time number one right in Tennessee has proven
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: to be a real jump starter for them. So the
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: Aggies starting to play like the team that was the
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: preseason number one. The current number one team, of course,
• 8:21
  Speaker 6: is Texas, and they won here last night a thrilling ballgame,
• 8:25
  Speaker 6: a three to two. And you know, that's one of
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: those games, cam where if you're a neutral observer or
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: even if you're rooting for Auburn, this is where you
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: insert that phrase it was a great ballgame if you
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: didn't care who won the game.
• 8:42
  Speaker 5: You know, one of those deals.
• 8:43
  Speaker 6: And I think you could say it even from the
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: Texas perspective, although obviously long worn fans are delighted to
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: get the win down to nothing and turned it around.
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: And you right here to see that huge crowd over
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: seventy two hundred, and this whole series is sold out
• 8:55
  Speaker 6: of the weekend.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, fantastic environment.
• 8:57
  Speaker 8: The dish last night, I mean, what a great cred
• 9:00
  Speaker 8: out on deck for last night, and there was some
• 9:03
  Speaker 8: fantastic baseball being played. The Max Grubbs catch off the
• 9:08
  Speaker 8: hot shot right back to him. I could not believe
• 9:11
  Speaker 8: he caught that in the moment I thought for sure
• 9:13
  Speaker 8: he took something to the hedge and older and then
• 9:18
  Speaker 8: the way he kind of turned around and held the
• 9:20
  Speaker 8: glove up and then got down on one knee to
• 9:22
  Speaker 8: the umpart of the show.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, I caught that.
• 9:25
  Speaker 8: I mean, I want to play the entire Texas infield
• 9:28
  Speaker 8: and outfield turned around to the scoreboard to look at
• 9:30
  Speaker 8: the replay on that. It was a fantastic play and
• 9:34
  Speaker 8: for taxes, good to see Adrian Rodriguez pick up a
• 9:38
  Speaker 8: big hit during that game. Then Kimball's you know, big
• 9:41
  Speaker 8: home run. So fantastic comeback for Texas. There at was
• 9:45
  Speaker 8: thirteen now fourteen comebacks on.
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: Fourteen come from behind wins.
• 9:50
  Speaker 6: Yeah for this team and and.
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: They're having it. And we heard Jim Schlasnagel.
• 9:57
  Speaker 6: Talk about this after the game with Keith last night,
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: and that was that this particular incarnation of this Texas
• 10:07
  Speaker 6: team within the season itself different ball club than it
• 10:12
  Speaker 6: was early in the year when they were playing in
• 10:13
  Speaker 6: Arlington in Las Vegas and the start of SEC play
• 10:18
  Speaker 6: down in Startville.
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: Because of the.
• 10:19
  Speaker 6: Injuries, this team has to go about it differently in
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: terms of finding ways to win. Jim said something to
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: me a week ago about you know, just you know,
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: win any way, and you can say win anyway or
• 10:35
  Speaker 6: win any way three different words. And and so that's
• 10:42
  Speaker 6: that's kind of what they're having to deal with, is
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: try to find a way to win because they've got
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: three guys, one of which is completely out of the lineup,
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: and the other two guys are banged up but are playing.
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: They've had to go to Ethan Mendoza in the d
• 10:59
  Speaker 6: eighth spot because of that banged up shoulder, so he's
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: not ready to go into the field.
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: He'll be day to day.
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: And and and of course Ethan, you know, all he
• 11:08
  Speaker 6: does last night is a pick up two hits and
• 11:11
  Speaker 6: an RBI and a run scored. So Mendoza continues to
• 11:14
  Speaker 6: swing the bat really well, but he's not one hundred
• 11:16
  Speaker 6: percent because of the shoulder, and that's why he's having
• 11:18
  Speaker 6: a DH. So if you d H him, then you
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: look at the thing with Max Blue out of the lineup,
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: and then Adrian Rodriguez, who they did DH at the
• 11:29
  Speaker 6: start of the weekend series in Kentucky, but now the
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: necessity is to play him in the field so that
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: they can DH Mendoza. So he was in the left
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: field and so that means Jade to Plantier at second
• 11:40
  Speaker 6: bason while the Plantier is struggling at the plate. He
• 11:43
  Speaker 6: flashed his range last night and was able to make
• 11:45
  Speaker 6: some plays and that was good to see as well
• 11:47
  Speaker 6: help the ball club in whatever way you can.
• 11:50
  Speaker 5: So there's all of that now.
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: Having said all of that, and we're going to take
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: a break here in a few minutes and then you're
• 11:56
  Speaker 6: we're gonna have some football conversation coming up. But uh,
• 12:01
  Speaker 6: the other thing that you had in the highlight montage
• 12:03
  Speaker 6: was the walk off grand slam. That was that was
• 12:08
  Speaker 6: something else to see and because it was as as
• 12:12
  Speaker 6: you heard on the call by Andrew Haynes, Texas was
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: down three nothing one of the bottom of the six,
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: me Scott hits a home run, get back to back
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: homers to tie it at three, and then of course
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: hit the wall. They get the walk off grand slam
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: in the bottom of the seven with two outs to
• 12:28
  Speaker 6: win so h a great moment there for saftball. That's
• 12:31
  Speaker 6: what I meant when I said I if if an
• 12:33
  Speaker 6: early start to a weekend, in this case case a
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: holiday weekend, if an early start to the weekend includes
• 12:41
  Speaker 6: moments like that, you know, like Reese Atwood's walk off
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: grand Slam and the Longhorns rallying back to win, and
• 12:50
  Speaker 6: Shuster with that rocket of a home run he hit
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: out to left. If you're a Texas fan, you'll certainly
• 12:56
  Speaker 6: take that all right. Speaking of being Texas fan, if
• 12:58
  Speaker 6: you're a long Horn football fan, stay tuned because we're
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: gonna hear from three different Longhorns throughout the course of
• 13:05

  Speaker 6: one as well. All right, we'll step away from baseball
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: for a moment and talk some Longhorn football. But before
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: we do that, I do want to mention, since we
• 15:25
  Speaker 6: were talking music, you mentioned, Cameron that you're a fan
• 15:29
  Speaker 6: of Laney Wilson. Correct, of course. Okay, all right, So
• 15:34
  Speaker 6: the reason why I say this is because you've got
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: a chance. Fans, do folks, listeners have an opportunity to
• 15:41
  Speaker 6: win a pair of tickets to see Laney Wilson at
• 15:43
  Speaker 6: Moody Center on September eighteenth.
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: And this is how you do it.
• 15:48
  Speaker 6: First of all, if you don't already, have the free
• 15:51
  Speaker 6: iHeartRadio app downloaded on your smartphone, easy to do.
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: It's free, and there's even.
• 15:56
  Speaker 6: More incentive to do it here, So you downloaded if
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: you haven't already, And once you have it downloaded on
• 16:02
  Speaker 6: your phone, you search AM thirteen under the zone and
• 16:05
  Speaker 6: there's two buttons on there. There's a little white arrow
• 16:08
  Speaker 6: button that's to listen to what's going on on the air.
• 16:10
  Speaker 6: But there's a red button with a little white microphone
• 16:13
  Speaker 6: in the middle of that red button. You tap that
• 16:15
  Speaker 6: red button and you leave us a voice message on
• 16:19
  Speaker 6: our talkback feature. So you do that, and you leave
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: us a message with the keyword that you heard on
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: the radio. So in other words, you say, hey, I
• 16:30
  Speaker 6: heard on the Craigway Show he said the keyword for
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: today to win the tickets for Landy Wilson is and
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: it's to put you into the drawing.
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: So but you got to do that to do that.
• 16:41
  Speaker 5: So today's keyword.
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: And this is why I asked the level of your
• 16:45
  Speaker 6: fandom cam because.
• 16:50
  Speaker 5: Today's keyword is nose dive. Nose dive? Now is that
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: the song? Is it a lyric?
• 16:58
  Speaker 7: Is it? Do you know?
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 17:01
  Speaker 8: Man, you know you always ask him what his keywords mean,
• 17:03
  Speaker 8: and I never have. I never really have.
• 17:06
  Speaker 9: You do.
• 17:06
  Speaker 6: Sometimes I'm totally clueless on a lot of them. That's
• 17:09
  Speaker 6: why I'm asking. I'm sure fans would not.
• 17:11
  Speaker 8: A quick Google shirt tells me that it's a song
• 17:14
  Speaker 8: that she has with post Malone, posting. Oh good, okay,
• 17:17
  Speaker 8: you're a big post Malone dan.
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: Yes, okay, all right, he's a big Cowboys fan. Got
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: that he has a he has a Raising Canes franchise
• 17:25
  Speaker 6: up there. Yes, that's right. So anyway, nose dive is
• 17:30
  Speaker 6: the keyword. So if you don't already have it downloaded
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: on your smartphone, download the brand new iHeartRadio app. It's free, uh,
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: new and improved and really cool. You search AM thirteen
• 17:42
  Speaker 6: under the zone. You tap the red button with a
• 17:44
  Speaker 6: little white microphone. Leave us a message with the keyword
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: you heard on this program.
• 17:48
  Speaker 5: Which is nose dive.
• 17:50
  Speaker 6: All right, Uh, let's let's dive right into hearing some
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: long worn football talk. The man who's the veteran, the senior,
• 17:57
  Speaker 6: the former walk on uh and became an All American
• 18:01
  Speaker 6: last year.
• 18:02
  Speaker 5: Long worn safety Michael Tapp.
• 18:05
  Speaker 10: What's it like about today?
• 18:08
  Speaker 11: It's kind of sad.
• 18:09
  Speaker 12: Uh, Like we always talk about how fun that was
• 18:13
  Speaker 12: playing together.
• 18:16
  Speaker 11: You know, when you're.
• 18:17
  Speaker 12: Three of the top five dbs ranked on some of
• 18:21
  Speaker 12: these you know sources in the country. You all play
• 18:25
  Speaker 12: on the same team, and you also are all best friends.
• 18:27
  Speaker 12: Like that's a once in a lifetime opportunity.
• 18:29
  Speaker 11: So it's sad. I text him a lot, like missing
• 18:32
  Speaker 11: you guys.
• 18:33
  Speaker 12: We also were always on the same page, so that
• 18:35
  Speaker 12: was that was a lot of fun. But I mean
• 18:39
  Speaker 12: it's cool to you know, branch out to different avenues
• 18:41
  Speaker 12: of friendships. You know, I never would have thought me
• 18:45
  Speaker 12: and Jolwanne, you know, coming into this, me and Jolene
• 18:47
  Speaker 12: would have been best friends. And now we're, you know,
• 18:49
  Speaker 12: like brothers, and just because the positions that we've been
• 18:52
  Speaker 12: put in, and so you know, it's so cool to
• 18:55
  Speaker 12: see like where God has put you in your life.
• 18:57
  Speaker 11: Because like two.
• 18:59
  Speaker 12: Years younger than me, I thought I was coming out
• 19:01
  Speaker 12: in four years, so I never really would have crossed
• 19:04
  Speaker 12: paths with Johnny. He came in as a linebacker, played quarterback,
• 19:07
  Speaker 12: in high school and now we're playing side by side
• 19:09
  Speaker 12: best friends. So it's sad that we're missing those guys,
• 19:13
  Speaker 12: but I'm glad and excited for the new new friendships.
• 19:18
  Speaker 13: Money seems pretty happy, good latch because you turn it
• 19:20
  Speaker 13: on when he's on the field.
• 19:23
  Speaker 12: Yeah, just go watch the tame he can he can
• 19:25
  Speaker 12: turn it on for sure. He's he's put on a
• 19:27
  Speaker 12: show this year.
• 19:27
  Speaker 14: I'm kind of picky back up the ship's question because
• 19:30
  Speaker 14: of the two of your best friends and one with
• 19:31
  Speaker 14: the team, did that force you can kind of quarter
• 19:33
  Speaker 14: as a.
• 19:33
  Speaker 10: Bigger branch out to different guys who you wouldn't finish
• 19:36
  Speaker 10: right to live by a wise.
• 19:39
  Speaker 11: Yeah, good question. I think you know.
• 19:42
  Speaker 12: I try to do a really good job of, you know,
• 19:44
  Speaker 12: the guy that maybe doesn't talk to a lot of
• 19:45
  Speaker 12: people in the locker room, go reach it out.
• 19:47
  Speaker 11: Hey, how are you doing? What school are you from?
• 19:50
  Speaker 10: Again?
• 19:50
  Speaker 11: Like how many are you the oldest, youngest?
• 19:52
  Speaker 12: I try to try to get those questions out there early,
• 19:54
  Speaker 12: just because you know, I know what it's like being
• 19:56
  Speaker 12: a freshman, and even more, I know it's like being
• 19:59
  Speaker 12: a freshman walk on where nobody even really knows who
• 20:01
  Speaker 12: you are, so you don't have the stars to, like,
• 20:04
  Speaker 12: you know, be on social media, coming in as a freshman,
• 20:07
  Speaker 12: so I know what that's like. I know what it's
• 20:09
  Speaker 12: like just being you know, just kind of going through things,
• 20:11
  Speaker 12: going through adversity, and not a lot of people know
• 20:13
  Speaker 12: about it because you don't talk about it, and but
• 20:15
  Speaker 12: maybe somebody notices. So I try to do that my best.
• 20:19
  Speaker 12: But yes, it has been a great step for me
• 20:22
  Speaker 12: to note. I think it's gotten me out of my
• 20:24
  Speaker 12: comfort zone. It's kind of the way to say it,
• 20:26
  Speaker 12: because there's times where I could just rely on Andrew
• 20:30
  Speaker 12: and Jodday, like they know what I'm talking about here,
• 20:33
  Speaker 12: but you know, I got I gotta get different ways
• 20:36
  Speaker 12: of communication and got to get out of my comfort
• 20:38
  Speaker 12: comfort zone in some aspects.
• 20:40
  Speaker 15: What are some of the fighting details that you're.
• 20:42
  Speaker 16: Working out of your game?
• 20:44
  Speaker 11: Is consistent tackling.
• 20:48
  Speaker 12: This might get a laugh at some of y'all, but
• 20:50
  Speaker 12: I tend to tackle high at times, so I'm trying
• 20:53
  Speaker 12: to work on lower pad level tackling, lower striking, you know,
• 20:57
  Speaker 12: the hips instead of maybe the helmets sometimes, So you know,
• 21:02
  Speaker 12: I consistent tackling for one to just mastering your crafts.
• 21:07
  Speaker 11: I always try to preach on get.
• 21:09
  Speaker 12: Really really good at what you're good at, and try
• 21:11
  Speaker 12: to stay really good at that, and then bring up
• 21:14
  Speaker 12: all the weaknesses so you don't really have any weaknesses
• 21:17
  Speaker 12: in your game. So not only am I try to
• 21:19
  Speaker 12: up my weaknesses, but like the things that I'm really
• 21:21
  Speaker 12: good at, I still harp on those all the time,
• 21:23
  Speaker 12: because you can't lose the things that you're good at.
• 21:26
  Speaker 7: Ever.
• 21:28
  Speaker 12: I believe I'm good at, you know, having a really
• 21:31
  Speaker 12: good sense of the game of football, zone coverage and
• 21:34
  Speaker 12: knowing where the quarterback is gonna go with the ball,
• 21:36
  Speaker 12: a getting a step in the ground before anybody else.
• 21:39
  Speaker 12: I believe I'm really good at communication and knowing what
• 21:42
  Speaker 12: the offense is trying to do. I believe when the
• 21:44
  Speaker 12: ball's in the air, I try to go get in.
• 21:46
  Speaker 12: I always believe it's mine.
• 21:48
  Speaker 9: Anfield, there's a good chance last season's both in off
• 21:51
  Speaker 9: How would you describe the roles that you play office uns?
• 21:55
  Speaker 12: Yeah, and is a phenomenal player, a phenomenal person, but
• 22:00
  Speaker 12: always brings a lot of juice. He's one of those
• 22:02
  Speaker 12: guys like I never knew anybody personally on that twenty
• 22:06
  Speaker 12: twenty one Georgia team, but it seemed like when they
• 22:08
  Speaker 12: stepped on the field, it was like, all right, dog status.
• 22:11
  Speaker 12: That's kind of how Anthony Hill is like when he
• 22:13
  Speaker 12: steps on the field. He can joke around, but when
• 22:15
  Speaker 12: he steps on the field, it's like, nobody's my friend here.
• 22:18
  Speaker 11: If you're across the ball from me, you're not my friend.
• 22:20
  Speaker 11: I don't care.
• 22:21
  Speaker 12: If you're my best friend in the locker room, you're
• 22:23
  Speaker 12: not my friend. So he's got that juice to that dog.
• 22:25
  Speaker 10: Too, the energy and like juice that a lot of
• 22:28
  Speaker 10: these young guys are bringing.
• 22:29
  Speaker 8: And Colin I know he's not the youngest anymore, but
• 22:31
  Speaker 8: like that's what everyone's been talking about.
• 22:33
  Speaker 10: How much Juic said was bring me.
• 22:34
  Speaker 8: How does the coaching staff kind of try to bring
• 22:36
  Speaker 8: that out of everybody and play with that energy and
• 22:39
  Speaker 8: that juice.
• 22:40
  Speaker 12: Yeah, well, the I think it's really cool learning from
• 22:44
  Speaker 12: different coaching staffs, learning from different coaches individually. They've kind
• 22:49
  Speaker 12: of hit on this part of it where it's like,
• 22:52
  Speaker 12: if you have a young team, yes, it's gonna be
• 22:54
  Speaker 12: really difficult to get the playbook down early in spring,
• 22:57
  Speaker 12: to get the culture set early. It's to get the
• 23:00
  Speaker 12: little minute details early in the spring.
• 23:03
  Speaker 11: But the one thing you can't lose. Is everybody's got juice.
• 23:05
  Speaker 12: Everybody's hyper, everybody's so excited to be at the University
• 23:09
  Speaker 12: of Texas playing the game that they love.
• 23:11
  Speaker 11: So collect all that stuff that's really.
• 23:13
  Speaker 12: Positive that young guys bring and then add the veteran
• 23:17
  Speaker 12: ship that you have, put it together and you got
• 23:19
  Speaker 12: you got a juice up squad. So trying to bring
• 23:21
  Speaker 12: the benefits out of everybody.
• 23:23
  Speaker 10: Michael, what's the first month really been like?
• 23:25
  Speaker 11: Like Dwayne Tina, Yeah, it's been awesome.
• 23:29
  Speaker 17: Uh.
• 23:29
  Speaker 11: He demands excellen.
• 23:30
  Speaker 16: Side of you.
• 23:30
  Speaker 11: He uh.
• 23:32
  Speaker 12: He doesn't do a lot of patting on your back,
• 23:34
  Speaker 12: which I love and I appreciate because you know, I've
• 23:37
  Speaker 12: been in that spot all my life where it's like look.
• 23:40
  Speaker 11: Down, look down, look down, and then.
• 23:41
  Speaker 12: I have a really good season and it's all American
• 23:43
  Speaker 12: sadd's you're the guy, You're the guy, You're the guy. Well, now,
• 23:47
  Speaker 12: Dwayne Keena coach Akina comes in. He's like, no, your
• 23:51
  Speaker 12: standard's up here. You're here, your standards all the way
• 23:53
  Speaker 12: up here. If you wanna, if you want to act
• 23:54
  Speaker 12: like you're good, I've coached Michael Hough. The standard has
• 23:58
  Speaker 12: been upped and up and up. And the other thing
• 24:02
  Speaker 12: is we have really, really good gas. I want to
• 24:04
  Speaker 12: point those out, you know, Malik, Malik and Pat. You
• 24:09
  Speaker 12: can look them up on on Safari. Those guys have
• 24:11
  Speaker 12: been working their tails off because what they do is
• 24:15
  Speaker 12: nobody will ever notice, but they do a lot for
• 24:18
  Speaker 12: this team. They do a lot for this defensive back room,
• 24:20
  Speaker 12: and it's so cool. They're up here till nine pm
• 24:23
  Speaker 12: on February and in time where we're not even playing, and.
• 24:27
  Speaker 11: So they've taught me a whole lot.
• 24:30
  Speaker 12: I love, you know, bsing with them and hanging out
• 24:33
  Speaker 12: with them and talking ball with them because they're they're
• 24:37
  Speaker 12: every every person on this in this room has a job,
• 24:41
  Speaker 12: and no jobs too small, new jobs too big. So
• 24:44
  Speaker 12: obviously coach Akina is one of the best coaches I've
• 24:47
  Speaker 12: been around, and he's taught me so much already.
• 24:49
  Speaker 11: But he elevates everybody's game.
• 24:52
  Speaker 12: He elevates everybody in the room, not if you're just
• 24:54
  Speaker 12: a player, but also staff, and Milik and and Pat
• 24:57
  Speaker 12: have been doing a heck of a job.
• 24:58
  Speaker 11: I want to shout those guys out.
• 25:00
  Speaker 10: Someone moved to corner.
• 25:03
  Speaker 18: What have you seen from him out there?
• 25:05
  Speaker 14: And I guess Wardel Max was playing a lot at
• 25:08
  Speaker 14: nicol What have you.
• 25:09
  Speaker 18: Seen from him?
• 25:11
  Speaker 12: Yeah, Gilbert came in as a corner, so I feel
• 25:14
  Speaker 12: like it's pretty natural for him. That switched the star
• 25:18
  Speaker 12: was definitely natural for him freshman sophomore year, and now
• 25:22
  Speaker 12: that he's back at corner, playing a little bit of corner.
• 25:25
  Speaker 12: You know, the the starting five in set with positions,
• 25:29
  Speaker 12: with strings, nothing set right now. There there gonna be
• 25:33
  Speaker 12: a time where coach Akina says, you know, sixteen, you're
• 25:36
  Speaker 12: one of the best five safeties and we have four
• 25:38
  Speaker 12: of the best five safeties. I mean best five DB's
• 25:41
  Speaker 12: are safety, so you gotta go play corner. How Coach
• 25:44
  Speaker 12: a Kina does it is the best five dbs. So
• 25:48
  Speaker 12: if you're in that best five dB category, then you'll
• 25:51
  Speaker 12: trut out with the ones. So there's no set in stone.
• 25:53
  Speaker 12: Who's the starters, who's the ones, who's the two's, who's corner,
• 25:57
  Speaker 12: who's nickel, who's safety? You gotta be the best five
• 26:00
  Speaker 12: dbs and that that helps you grow your game to
• 26:02
  Speaker 12: be ersatal.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: He's been the.
• 26:04
  Speaker 14: Biggest hurdle without Dana.
• 26:10
  Speaker 12: Man, you are making me give too much credits to
• 26:12
  Speaker 12: Jody Andrew. Just the comfortability that I had with them,
• 26:17
  Speaker 12: and they were guys that could lead, that can communicate,
• 26:21
  Speaker 12: but also you cut on the tape, they're making plays
• 26:24
  Speaker 12: and so and every defense you need guys like aunt Hill,
• 26:27
  Speaker 12: like Colin Simmons that are just making plays. And that's
• 26:30
  Speaker 12: what Jody Andrew were. So you know, having to rely
• 26:33
  Speaker 12: on other guys to really step in and make those
• 26:35
  Speaker 12: plays and see who can make those plays.
• 26:37
  Speaker 19: You have an appreciation and a knowledge of Texas football
• 26:41
  Speaker 19: history in his recent year. So like you hear that
• 26:43
  Speaker 19: Akina is coming on board, You're probably the super jacked,
• 26:46
  Speaker 19: but the other guys in the room, he's probably just
• 26:48
  Speaker 19: another coach. Did he have to like sell himself like, hey,
• 26:52
  Speaker 19: you know, here's who I am, here are my credentials
• 26:55
  Speaker 19: or how did that go first first re meeting?
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 27:00
  Speaker 12: Coach a kinda has always preached trust is earned. So
• 27:05
  Speaker 12: no matter what how many draft picks I've had, no
• 27:07
  Speaker 12: matter forty people off put in the league since I've
• 27:10
  Speaker 12: been coaching, I got to earn your trust.
• 27:12
  Speaker 11: You got to earn my trust. And so it goes
• 27:15
  Speaker 11: both ways.
• 27:16
  Speaker 12: And so he's always trying to you know, if I'm
• 27:19
  Speaker 12: gonna rip somebody, I'm also gonna love him just as
• 27:21
  Speaker 12: much because I need that connection with them in order
• 27:24
  Speaker 12: to rip them, so they know where I'm coming from.
• 27:26
  Speaker 12: And so he didn't come in talking about, you know,
• 27:29
  Speaker 12: how many draft picks he's had, how many national championships
• 27:32
  Speaker 12: he's won, how many you know, top five defenses he's coached.
• 27:35
  Speaker 12: He came in, I want to gan y'ell's trust, so
• 27:38
  Speaker 12: then y'all can believe me when I say, Hey, I
• 27:40
  Speaker 12: coach Michael Huff, I coach Kwandre Diggs and so forth
• 27:44
  Speaker 12: and so on.
• 27:45
  Speaker 15: Michael last year, about this time, Jade this year, you
• 27:48
  Speaker 15: talked about his competitive spirit and he said he's spoken
• 27:51
  Speaker 15: to Quinn. He says, my job, my old goal is
• 27:54
  Speaker 15: to get an interception on your friends.
• 27:56
  Speaker 12: Have you had that same conversation with Art, Yeah, I
• 27:59
  Speaker 12: mean talking a lot of trash, So definitely share words
• 28:03
  Speaker 12: about I'm gonna pick you off. He's doing a heck
• 28:07
  Speaker 12: of a job in spring right now. Arch freshman year
• 28:09
  Speaker 12: to Arch now is nine and day difference. He's playing
• 28:13
  Speaker 12: so smart, so mature, so calm, and then also, oh,
• 28:17
  Speaker 12: by the way, he's also got a really good arm.
• 28:19
  Speaker 12: He can throw, and he's you know who he is,
• 28:21
  Speaker 12: and he's a ballplayer. So he's doing a really good,
• 28:24
  Speaker 12: really good job. We talk a lot of trash, but
• 28:27
  Speaker 12: it's it's so cool. I saw what he said to
• 28:30
  Speaker 12: y'all about you know, this is where I want to
• 28:32
  Speaker 12: be and so in the in the day and age
• 28:34
  Speaker 12: of college football right now, that is that is so cool.
• 28:37
  Speaker 12: The cool thing about here is everything going on colorable.
• 28:41
  Speaker 12: Everybody's freaking out. What's happening with culturable. We're so naive
• 28:45
  Speaker 12: to that. Like our locker room is so naive to that.
• 28:47
  Speaker 12: Nobody talks about financials. Nobody talks about really the transfer
• 28:51
  Speaker 12: portal and who's gonna leave, who's not gonna leave, who
• 28:54
  Speaker 12: are we gonna bring in? We talk about like like
• 28:58
  Speaker 12: if Kandrey Diggs came into the locker room, he'd be like, yeah,
• 29:00
  Speaker 12: it's pretty much the same as when I when I played,
• 29:02
  Speaker 12: and there's no transfer portal, there's no n I L
• 29:04
  Speaker 12: because we're just so you know, we have a great culture,
• 29:07
  Speaker 12: We're bonded with one another, we have strong in our faith,
• 29:11
  Speaker 12: and we just love the game of football. We love
• 29:12
  Speaker 12: the University of Texas. So that's the coolest thing. That's
• 29:15
  Speaker 12: something to look forward to if you're a Longhorn fan
• 29:18
  Speaker 12: is like, yes, college football is crazy right now, but
• 29:21
  Speaker 12: I don't see a lot of that going on in
• 29:22
  Speaker 12: out of the locker room, which is really cool in the dB,
• 29:26
  Speaker 12: you know, across.
• 29:27
  Speaker 18: The whole DV room, who stood out to you? Shown
• 29:32
  Speaker 18: you little.
• 29:33
  Speaker 12: Sucking Grayson Littleton plays with his hair on fire. He's
• 29:39
  Speaker 12: he's a really good player. He's gonna be a stud
• 29:40
  Speaker 12: for us, whether that's this year, whether that's a couple
• 29:44
  Speaker 12: of years down the road, He's gonna be a really
• 29:45
  Speaker 12: good player. Uh knows the game, plays physical, plays with
• 29:48
  Speaker 12: a you know, a great amount of effort. And the
• 29:52
  Speaker 12: other player that's been here a lot but keeps showing
• 29:54
  Speaker 12: up every spring fall camp is Warren Robson playing really
• 29:59
  Speaker 12: really good man coverage, showing great deal maturity and his
• 30:04
  Speaker 12: own coverage and disguising his pictures.
• 30:06
  Speaker 11: So he's he's a guy to look out.
• 30:08
  Speaker 17: For the left head of the offense. Because the offense
• 30:12
  Speaker 17: lost four line starters and flave receivers and died.
• 30:16
  Speaker 12: Yeah, you would think so on paper, but they also
• 30:19
  Speaker 12: got a pretty good guy by the name of Arch
• 30:21
  Speaker 12: Manning if you've ever heard of him. So he yeah,
• 30:25
  Speaker 12: he makes some plays on his own but I mean,
• 30:29
  Speaker 12: you know, the game of football is the greatest game
• 30:32
  Speaker 12: on this earth because it's a team It's one of
• 30:34
  Speaker 12: the only team sports that you really need everybody to go.
• 30:39
  Speaker 12: You need your left tackle for for Arch to throw
• 30:42
  Speaker 12: a great pass, you need the receiver run the right route,
• 30:44
  Speaker 12: neither running back to block or you know, get out
• 30:47
  Speaker 12: whenever he needs to get out to throw the check down.
• 30:49
  Speaker 12: And so they've they've won their days. We won our days.
• 30:52
  Speaker 12: We like to make you competitive. You know, I'm a
• 30:54
  Speaker 12: defensive guy, so I would say that we won more
• 30:56
  Speaker 12: days than lost. But you know, if Arch got up here,
• 30:59
  Speaker 12: he'd probably say that he won more days in loss.
• 31:01
  Speaker 11: So it's kind of going back and forth. It's fun.
• 31:03
  Speaker 14: What's it been like to just hear Archie voice louder
• 31:06
  Speaker 14: and being more of that leader in the locker room.
• 31:08
  Speaker 10: Compared to your time.
• 31:10
  Speaker 11: Yeah, I think Arch is a natural born leader.
• 31:13
  Speaker 12: You could tell freshman sophomore year when he really wanted
• 31:16
  Speaker 12: to lead, but he knew that his time was gonna come,
• 31:20
  Speaker 12: and he knew that.
• 31:21
  Speaker 11: You know, QB one is the one that has.
• 31:23
  Speaker 12: The voice, so it was cool to see him be
• 31:25
  Speaker 12: QB two and you know, walk up to somebody and
• 31:28
  Speaker 12: be like, Hey, this is what you want to do,
• 31:29
  Speaker 12: This is what you need to do, this is what
• 31:30
  Speaker 12: you know I do if I was in your position,
• 31:33
  Speaker 12: and so on and so forth. So it's really cool
• 31:35
  Speaker 12: to see him go from you know, kind of a
• 31:37
  Speaker 12: silent leader but still being a leader to now the
• 31:39
  Speaker 12: guy you know, running up to everybody, you know, motivating them,
• 31:43
  Speaker 12: you know, pumping them up, but then also talking trash
• 31:45
  Speaker 12: to other people to get them going, get their gears started.
• 31:48
  Speaker 11: So it's been so cool to see that transition, for sure.
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: Ah, in wisdom of Michael Taff the long horns of
• 31:56
  Speaker 6: veteran safety. All right, let me take he's gonna come
• 31:58
  Speaker 6: out to get us back on track here or we're gonna.
• 32:02
  Speaker 6: I don't want to rush through Inconceivable because it's really
• 32:06
  Speaker 6: good obviously on Friday, meaning Florida man, and there's a
• 32:09
  Speaker 6: couple of items that we just can't short change. So
• 32:15
  Speaker 6: what we're gonna do is, I'm gonna move. We will
• 32:19
  Speaker 6: move Inconceivable back by one hour. It'll be right about
• 32:23
  Speaker 6: this time, in the three o'clock hour. But we've got
• 32:27
  Speaker 6: something good for you coming. I just went downstairs and
• 32:29
  Speaker 6: visited with Jim Slosnakle, the Long Horns head coach, and
• 32:31
  Speaker 6: we're gonna get his thoughts on tonight's second game of
• 32:35
  Speaker 6: this series between Texas and Auburn. That's up next when
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: we continue on thirteen under the Zone. I was down
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: on the field and had an opportunity to visit with
• 32:44
  Speaker 6: Long Horns head coach Jim Slasnangle. I think you were
• 32:46
  Speaker 6: probably as surprised as a lot of people have thought
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: looking at that wind blowing out and it was like
• 32:50
  Speaker 6: that last night, that a three to two ball game.
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: But it was a well played baseball game, no matter
• 32:54
  Speaker 6: who you were rooting for.
• 32:55
  Speaker 20: Yeah, I thought it was just an incredibly well pitched game.
• 32:58
  Speaker 21: You know, we had to two out hits, and I
• 33:01
  Speaker 21: think Shooster's homer was with one out, maybe two outs. Uh,
• 33:05
  Speaker 21: And of course they had the big two run homer.
• 33:07
  Speaker 21: But I thought that Dutton did a great job of
• 33:09
  Speaker 21: keeping the ball on the ground against us and Max
• 33:13
  Speaker 21: obviously when he had to come in and he's that's
• 33:15
  Speaker 21: what he does is to sink the ball. So uh yeah, uh,
• 33:20
  Speaker 21: but I imagine's probably gonna flip around the day.
• 33:23
  Speaker 17: Uh.
• 33:23
  Speaker 21: That's how usually baseball goes. But we'll see.
• 33:27
  Speaker 6: One thing that Kimball said in the post came with
• 33:29
  Speaker 6: Keith I found pretty interesting, and I know coaches probably take.
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: Some pride of this.
• 33:33
  Speaker 6: He talked about the scouting reports and looking and he said,
• 33:37
  Speaker 6: and I knew if he got two strikes on me,
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: he's going to try to try to do that. That
• 33:42
  Speaker 6: slider or that breaking bottle made me think of the
• 33:44
  Speaker 6: whole thing about Ecker's leady Kirk Gibson in the back,
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: the back door slider on three two, that.
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: Kind of thing. But I mean, that doesn't coach is heartgood?
• 33:50
  Speaker 6: Isn't it though that the guys remember, recall the scouting
• 33:55
  Speaker 6: reporter and then use it to their advantage.
• 33:57
  Speaker 20: Yeah, I think so.
• 33:57
  Speaker 21: I mean, I think you know, he can't be a
• 33:59
  Speaker 21: slave to it, because we also had this kind of
• 34:01
  Speaker 21: report that Dunton was mostly four seam fastball and likes
• 34:04
  Speaker 21: to ride his fastball, and then he comes into the
• 34:06
  Speaker 21: game and he's sinking his fastball. So, uh, you go
• 34:09
  Speaker 21: into it with a plan, then you have to adjust
• 34:10
  Speaker 21: as it goes. But yeah, I think that may have
• 34:14
  Speaker 21: been the first breaking ball the guy through of his appearance, Myers,
• 34:19
  Speaker 21: because everything else he had the good fastball going so yeah, thankful.
• 34:23
  Speaker 20: You know, it's not just that he was on the
• 34:25
  Speaker 20: breaking ball. He was a bad breaking ball.
• 34:26
  Speaker 21: You know, if you I'm sure, if you know, nobody
• 34:28
  Speaker 21: hits the good ones, you hope to be able to
• 34:30
  Speaker 21: hit the mistakes.
• 34:30
  Speaker 6: I always asked you about your pitching playing off of this.
• 34:33
  Speaker 6: Of course, Landi's only had the first twenty pitches. I know,
• 34:37
  Speaker 6: if you needed him to get the win, to win
• 34:39
  Speaker 6: the series, you'd go for it. You'd like to avoid him.
• 34:41
  Speaker 6: But it all starts with Luke.
• 34:42
  Speaker 5: And I don't.
• 34:43
  Speaker 20: Yeah, it does. He's got to. You know, there's such
• 34:46
  Speaker 20: a talent lineup.
• 34:48
  Speaker 21: The fact that I told Keith last night, the fact
• 34:50
  Speaker 21: that there are too many college programs or just have
• 34:53
  Speaker 21: enough player good enough players where you can stack all
• 34:55
  Speaker 21: your lefties right in a row, and that just tells
• 34:57
  Speaker 21: you that they handle the.
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: Left handed pitching. You know.
• 35:00
  Speaker 21: Errol hits the ball all over the field, Irish hits
• 35:02
  Speaker 21: the ball all over the field, and McMurray hits it over.
• 35:05
  Speaker 5: All the fields.
• 35:06
  Speaker 21: But yeah, we're gonna I mean, Luke's got to do
• 35:10
  Speaker 21: a good job of throwing strikes and limiting the damage
• 35:12
  Speaker 21: with the wind blowing out.
• 35:13
  Speaker 6: Yeah, it's as simple as that. Because the wind is
• 35:15
  Speaker 6: blowing out. It's eighty nine degrees right now here the ballpark,
• 35:20
  Speaker 6: so it's hot and breezy, and that wind is blowing
• 35:22
  Speaker 6: out of the south like it normally does, so it
• 35:26
  Speaker 6: is really going to help fly balls hit out to left.
• 35:31
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 35:31
  Speaker 6: Shustler's home run last night didn't need any help. It
• 35:33
  Speaker 6: was a missile and it got out. But anything that's
• 35:36
  Speaker 6: just sent in the air, and there were a couple
• 35:37
  Speaker 6: that were put into the air by Auburn that drifted
• 35:40
  Speaker 6: toward the warning track that were definitely helped by the breeze.
• 35:44
  Speaker 6: Anything that's hit like that last that was hit like
• 35:46
  Speaker 6: it was last night, hit tonight, it'll probably leave the ballpark,
• 35:50
  Speaker 6: so we could have a high scoring game on our hands.
• 35:52
  Speaker 7: We'll see.
• 35:53
  Speaker 6: Luke Harrison's task will be to keep the ball down
• 35:56
  Speaker 6: and try to go from there. All right, we'll be
• 35:57
  Speaker 6: back to wrap up our number one from here at
• 36:00
  Speaker 6: UFCU dish falk Field. I'm thirteen out of the hour
• 36:02
  Speaker 6: number two of the program. Here, I'm thirteen under the zone.
• 36:05
  Speaker 6: Craig Way with you from UFCU dishwauk Field, Texas.
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: Longhorns going through some early work on the field.
• 36:14
  Speaker 6: And then of course there's Game two of the series
• 36:15
  Speaker 6: tonight against the Auburn Tigers. It is a six o'clock
• 36:19
  Speaker 6: first pitch, I know, on all the schedules at seven,
• 36:23
  Speaker 6: but they moved it, made the adjustments to the schedule
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: this week because of Auburn's travel situation, and so as
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: a result of that, Tonight's game will start at six,
• 36:36
  Speaker 6: one hour earlier, and you can hear it on one
• 36:39
  Speaker 6: oh three point one FM here on the zone. Tonight
• 36:42
  Speaker 6: it will be the Round Rock Express. Are they still
• 36:45
  Speaker 6: in Reno, Yeah, yeah, all right, so yeah, playing the
• 36:50
  Speaker 6: Reno Aces and obviously Ryland Cobra will have a call
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: of that for you and that comes your way at
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: seven fifty tonight. And then Tomorrow's game, which was originally
• 37:06
  Speaker 6: scheduled for two in the afternoon, has been moved forward
• 37:09
  Speaker 6: to noon again to accommodate the travel schedule for Auburn.
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: So as a result of the game will be at noon.
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: You'll be able to.
• 37:19
  Speaker 6: Hear it right here on this signal on this station
• 37:21
  Speaker 6: on AM thirteen hundred the zone, and you'll be able
• 37:25
  Speaker 6: to hear that beginning at eleven forty five tomorrow morning,
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: with the first pitch at noon. By the way, and
• 37:31
  Speaker 6: I mentioned this before, we do have a ballpark frequency
• 37:33
  Speaker 6: here inside of UFCU, just fartfield. If you want to
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: bring your headset radio out or your buds with your
• 37:41
  Speaker 6: portable radio, you can do that and tune it to
• 37:44
  Speaker 6: eighty seven point seven inside the ballpark eighty seven. So
• 37:48
  Speaker 6: hit somebody on Twitter last night address me and say, hey,
• 37:52
  Speaker 6: I can hear you, but it's not real clear on
• 37:54
  Speaker 6: eighty seven to five, and TYE sounds kind of garble,
• 38:00
  Speaker 6: I replied, And I said, well, it's eighty seven seven,
• 38:04
  Speaker 6: not eighty seven to five, and it's key, not tie
• 38:07
  Speaker 6: in the boot.
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: But appreciate you listening. So anyway, now that'll be the case.
• 38:13
  Speaker 6: And so again six o'clock this evening, and then to
• 38:17
  Speaker 6: tomorrow at noon. Texas Softball which had that dramatic walkoff
• 38:22
  Speaker 6: grand slam from Reesapwood to bt LSU yesterday seven to three.

  Speaker 6: They were down three to nothing one to the bottom
• 38:28
  Speaker 6: of six, and they got back to back home runs,
• 38:30
  Speaker 6: one of those from me a Scott, a two run
• 38:32

• 40:20
  Speaker 5: It's in that grassy area out there.
• 40:21
  Speaker 6: A lot of folks set up, so that's where the
• 40:24
  Speaker 6: block party will take place Tomorrow. They'll be tailgate games
• 40:28
  Speaker 6: Texas branded inflatables for kids age twelve and under. The
• 40:31
  Speaker 6: food trucks will be there, and Cameron's favorite, Big Bertha,
• 40:36
  Speaker 6: the draft beer truck featuring ten or more beers on
• 40:41
  Speaker 6: tap will be there. You again, you've you've partaken from
• 40:45
  Speaker 6: Big Bertha before, right, Actually.
• 40:47
  Speaker 8: I don't think I have some things I have because
• 40:49
  Speaker 8: you know, usually I work every home game, so I
• 40:51
  Speaker 8: don't know if I you know, in between working and
• 40:54
  Speaker 8: spotting for you have a couple of beers. You know,
• 40:56
  Speaker 8: I don't want to accidentally, you know, miss spot to
• 41:00
  Speaker 8: do that. Sober so after one or two who knows. Okay,
• 41:05
  Speaker 8: there's no football game this Saturday, so you know why not?
• 41:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I was thinking that one of the you know,
• 41:12
  Speaker 6: one or two of those home games where you weren't
• 41:15
  Speaker 6: the spot or either for me or for because you're
• 41:18
  Speaker 6: in high demand Westwood One, you know, they they want
• 41:22
  Speaker 6: somebody who can point with an accurate finger, and you've
• 41:26
  Speaker 6: given the finger to many people, so.
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: So you can.
• 41:29
  Speaker 6: You can definitely point with the index finger as well
• 41:32
  Speaker 6: as with the middle finger.
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: But anyway, I figured on.
• 41:35
  Speaker 6: One or two of those deals where you didn't have
• 41:39
  Speaker 6: a duty after after our long worn game day programming,
• 41:46
  Speaker 6: that you might, you know, quaff a beverage or two.
• 41:50
  Speaker 6: I thought you might head over for a malted beverage
• 41:54
  Speaker 6: from Big Beer.
• 41:55
  Speaker 7: Th M.
• 41:55
  Speaker 6: That's that's what I was thinking about. I know, when
• 41:57
  Speaker 6: when you're working, you're on the clock, and you're not
• 41:59
  Speaker 6: going to do that. I was just thinking that maybe
• 42:01
  Speaker 6: on some of those when you when you you know,
• 42:03
  Speaker 6: some of those home games where you didn't have a
• 42:06
  Speaker 6: post pregame assignment in other words, to spot or do
• 42:10
  Speaker 6: stats or whatever for one of the broadcasts that would
• 42:14
  Speaker 6: m andate from DKR, that maybe you might just kind
• 42:17
  Speaker 6: of stroll over there and do them.
• 42:18
  Speaker 11: You know.
• 42:18
  Speaker 8: I think I went to two games last year, like
• 42:21
  Speaker 8: just just as a fan. Regular fan went with your dad,
• 42:24
  Speaker 8: didn't you?
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: I went.
• 42:25
  Speaker 8: That was the Clemson college football playoff game. But I
• 42:27
  Speaker 8: had the flu. I didn't know I had the flu,
• 42:29
  Speaker 8: but I felt awful, and so I don't think I
• 42:32
  Speaker 8: had anything because I just felt disgusting. I ended up
• 42:34
  Speaker 8: leaving at halftime, waking up seeing that Clemson is only
• 42:38
  Speaker 8: down by a touchdown in the second half. In the
• 42:39
  Speaker 8: Kentucky game, I think I went with my cards. Of course,
• 42:42
  Speaker 8: who hosts a morning kickoff on this station, said the
• 42:44
  Speaker 8: nine Am. But we went to you know, you know,
• 42:47
  Speaker 8: my cards. He's got a suite and stuff. So I
• 42:50
  Speaker 8: did partake in beverages in the luxury suite in the
• 42:53
  Speaker 8: North End zone with mister Hardball. But outside of that
• 42:56
  Speaker 8: only you know, did not did not get the ten
• 42:59
  Speaker 8: too many Texas football game right as a fan and
• 43:02
  Speaker 8: thinking and funny enough, today I was thinking about the
• 43:05
  Speaker 8: schedule next year. There's a span because Texas when they
• 43:10
  Speaker 8: play Oklahoma, they are the home team, so that technically
• 43:12
  Speaker 8: is a home game for them, even though they're playing
• 43:14
  Speaker 8: the Cotton Bowl. But from September twentieth, when they play
• 43:18
  Speaker 8: Sam Houston to close out non conference play, they won't
• 43:22
  Speaker 8: play another home game for over a month. That's until
• 43:25
  Speaker 8: November one, when they host Vanderbilt. So the entire month
• 43:28
  Speaker 8: of October they do not play a single game at
• 43:31
  Speaker 8: DKR that.
• 43:33
  Speaker 5: Is correct, and I know some folks.
• 43:36
  Speaker 6: You know that, there was some folks that tweeted and
• 43:38
  Speaker 6: responded to tweets and stuff about that. I'm like, where
• 43:41
  Speaker 6: you've been. The schedule's been out for a while. But
• 43:46
  Speaker 6: there's there's a couple of things. It's not just a
• 43:49
  Speaker 6: blanket and people should know this. It's not just a
• 43:52
  Speaker 6: blanket thrown over and said. Texas doesn't have to play
• 43:55
  Speaker 6: a home game in the month of October.
• 43:57
  Speaker 5: That's not how it works.
• 44:00
  Speaker 6: First of all, they really front loaded the home games
• 44:02
  Speaker 6: like most of the teams in the conference too, except
• 44:06
  Speaker 6: you know what is normally reserved for Cupcake Weekend with
• 44:09
  Speaker 6: several other schools, Texas does not participate in Cupcake Weekend.
• 44:12
  Speaker 6: They play Division one FBS programs. They haven't played an
• 44:16
  Speaker 6: FCS program. Here's your irony, Cameron. The last time that
• 44:21
  Speaker 6: Texas played an FCS program.
• 44:24
  Speaker 5: Do you know what it was?
• 44:26
  Speaker 8: FCS program? Man, I'm trying to I'm trying. It's had
• 44:31
  Speaker 8: to be the Mac brown Er correct, yep.
• 44:33
  Speaker 5: And you were single digits in your age.
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: Oh okay, if.
• 44:38
  Speaker 6: I'm remembering correctly, you were born in nineteen ninety seven, right,
• 44:41
  Speaker 6: that's correct. Okay, you were barely in single digits, but
• 44:44
  Speaker 6: you were in single digits.
• 44:46
  Speaker 5: It was two.
• 44:46
  Speaker 6: Thousand and six, and the FCS opponent had to be
• 44:50
  Speaker 6: added because that was the year that it was going
• 44:53
  Speaker 6: to twelve games on the regular season schedule, coming off
• 44:56
  Speaker 6: the national championship, and so it was going to twelve games. Also,
• 45:02
  Speaker 6: they had a school I want to say it was
• 45:06
  Speaker 6: Minnesota that was scheduled to come in, or maybe it
• 45:08
  Speaker 6: was cal somebody these pushed to come in and they
• 45:10
  Speaker 6: pulled out. So Texas had to scramble and all that
• 45:14
  Speaker 6: was available was FCS opponents and the opponent was Sam Houston,
• 45:18
  Speaker 6: Sam Houston State.
• 45:20
  Speaker 5: They came in this year when.
• 45:23
  Speaker 6: Texas had to add an extra non conference opponent last
• 45:26
  Speaker 6: year and this year when they when they joined the SEC,
• 45:30
  Speaker 6: last year they added Uel Monroe.
• 45:32
  Speaker 5: This year it's Sam Houston.
• 45:35
  Speaker 6: But of course their Division one FBS now is SAM
• 45:40
  Speaker 6: so they were in Conference USA the first year I
• 45:43
  Speaker 6: guess a couple of years ago.
• 45:45
  Speaker 5: But anyway, so they.
• 45:48
  Speaker 6: Have Sam Houston on the schedule as one of the
• 45:51
  Speaker 6: non conference games.
• 45:52
  Speaker 5: But to my.
• 45:52
  Speaker 6: Point, what I was going to say is is it
• 45:55
  Speaker 6: can be a misnomer to say, well, they don't have
• 45:57
  Speaker 6: a home game and talked over. There's a couple of
• 45:59
  Speaker 6: things to keep in mind for anybody who says there
• 46:02
  Speaker 6: they don't have a home game for six weeks after
• 46:05
  Speaker 6: September twentieth, and they're right.
• 46:10
  Speaker 5: But there's a couple of things to keep in mind.
• 46:12
  Speaker 6: First of all, September twenty seventh, the week after their
• 46:14
  Speaker 6: fourth game, is an open.
• 46:16
  Speaker 5: Date on the schedule.
• 46:18
  Speaker 6: So the last Saturday in September is an open date.
• 46:22
  Speaker 6: Did I tell you what I'm doing on the open
• 46:23
  Speaker 6: date that weekend?
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: Wedding?
• 46:27
  Speaker 6: Do you have a wedding? No, no weddings. My son
• 46:29
  Speaker 6: is getting married next year. Congratulations Andy and Chantel. They
• 46:32
  Speaker 6: announced their engagement last week. They're getting married next year. No, no, no no.
• 46:38
  Speaker 6: In observance of you might call kind of an important,
• 46:44
  Speaker 6: if not milestone, type of birthday for me, which is
• 46:47
  Speaker 6: in September, Linda and I are going to fly that weekend,
• 46:53
  Speaker 6: on the open day weekend, We're going to fly to
• 46:54
  Speaker 6: Las Vegas, ooh and see Ringo Star and his All
• 46:58
  Speaker 6: Star band at the Venetian. In fact, it'll be the
• 47:01
  Speaker 6: final night of their residency at the Venetian. We did
• 47:04
  Speaker 6: a very similar thing. It's been six years May of
• 47:07
  Speaker 6: twenty nineteen, we flew out to see I think it
• 47:11
  Speaker 6: was the next to last night of Steely Dan's residency
• 47:14
  Speaker 6: at the Venetian. Great place to see, you know, iconic
• 47:19
  Speaker 6: musicians perform. When Texas played baseball in Las Vegas back
• 47:22
  Speaker 6: in February, Keith Morland after the Saturday game, he and
• 47:27
  Speaker 6: his wife Cindy raced over to the Vedsian. They saw
• 47:30
  Speaker 6: Chicago playing there, so it's a great venue to see it.
• 47:33
  Speaker 6: So we're gonna do that on the open date week
• 47:36
  Speaker 6: in September, we're gonna we're gonna fly to Las Vegas
• 47:39
  Speaker 6: and have a nice weekend there and we're gonna we're
• 47:44
  Speaker 6: gonna see Ringo Starr and his All Star band.
• 47:46
  Speaker 5: So we're gonna do that.
• 47:47
  Speaker 6: But that's an open date now to the rest of
• 47:50
  Speaker 6: this so it's an open date on the schedule. Then
• 47:54
  Speaker 6: you have to remember after they open SEC play the
• 47:58
  Speaker 6: following week in Gainesville, Florida is the OU game, the
• 48:03
  Speaker 6: Red River rivalry game, and Texas is the designated home
• 48:08
  Speaker 6: team this year, so technically they have a home date
• 48:14
  Speaker 6: in the month of October.
• 48:15
  Speaker 5: We all know better.
• 48:15
  Speaker 6: Of course, the games played to the Cotton Bowl at
• 48:18
  Speaker 6: the State Fair of Texas. They're in Dallas, but that's
• 48:21
  Speaker 6: not the SEC's problem. You're granted a home game in
• 48:24
  Speaker 6: October where you choose to play that is up to
• 48:26
  Speaker 6: you in Texas and Oklahoma play.
• 48:29
  Speaker 5: That game in Dallas.
• 48:30
  Speaker 6: So that's where the situation is after that, and then
• 48:34
  Speaker 6: and then there's road contest after that. That's why there's
• 48:37
  Speaker 6: no true home game at dk R Texas Memorial Stadium
• 48:43
  Speaker 6: in the month of October, but there's plenty in September,
• 48:46
  Speaker 6: and then they have them and don't forget in November.
• 48:49
  Speaker 5: Uh, you know, they'll.
• 48:51
  Speaker 6: Have Arkansas and Texas A and M coming to town.
• 48:54
  Speaker 6: So that's that's uh, that's something to keep.
• 48:57
  Speaker 5: In mind there, all right.
• 48:59
  Speaker 6: Coming up next, we're gonna hear some more long speaking
• 49:03
  Speaker 6: of Long Horn football.
• 49:04
  Speaker 5: We're gonna hear some more long worn football talk.
• 49:07
  Speaker 6: We'll hear from Colin Simmons, the long WRNS outstanding edge
• 49:10
  Speaker 6: rusher who no doubt I'm sure will be a preseason
• 49:14
  Speaker 6: All American coming off a freshman All Americans. In fact,
• 49:17
  Speaker 6: he was the National Freshman of the Year award winner
• 49:22
  Speaker 6: past season. So we'll hear from Colin Simmons coming up
• 49:25
  Speaker 6: updating the baseball score before he Texas A and M
• 49:28
  Speaker 6: leading Arkansas four to three top of the fourth inning.
• 49:32
  Speaker 6: That's game two of that weekend series in Fayetteville. Aggie's
• 49:35
  Speaker 6: won the opener last night, seven of four. That coupled
• 49:38
  Speaker 6: with the Texas win here over Auburn, puts the long
• 49:42
  Speaker 6: Horns two games up on the Razorbacks. But I think
• 49:47
  Speaker 6: perhaps more significant is that A and M is surging
• 49:51
  Speaker 6: right now. Eight straight wins for the Aggies, and you
• 49:56
  Speaker 6: know they've they've won the you know, the first the
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: first game of that series. They lead the second game
• 50:05
  Speaker 6: of that series. Right now, Texas A and M is
• 50:09
  Speaker 6: seven and nine in the league. They're twenty two and
• 50:12
  Speaker 6: fifteen overall. They won eight in a row. So they
• 50:14
  Speaker 6: have really climbed back into things, if not necessarily the
• 50:19
  Speaker 6: conference race, certainly into a respectability and b yeah, on
• 50:25
  Speaker 6: the outside edge of being a postseason regional contender. There's
• 50:32
  Speaker 6: still a lot of baseball left to be played. We've
• 50:34
  Speaker 6: been talking about that. There's been a lot of baseball
• 50:36
  Speaker 6: left to be played, and the Aggies will be here
• 50:39
  Speaker 6: next weekend. Friday Saturday is Sunday series against Texas, so
• 50:43
  Speaker 6: A and M is up four to three on Arkansas
• 50:45
  Speaker 6: Aggies are batting in the top of the fourth inning
• 50:47
  Speaker 6: in Fayetteville, Oklahoma, and they're playing a doubleheader because of
• 50:51
  Speaker 6: the advent of inclement weather coming in tomorrow into the
• 50:55
  Speaker 6: natural state Arkansas and also the advent of bad weather
• 51:01
  Speaker 6: in the show me state in Missouri and Oklahoma. And
• 51:04
  Speaker 6: Missouri are playing a doubleheader and that first game looks
• 51:06
  Speaker 6: like it may end in a run rule Sooners are
• 51:08
  Speaker 6: up seventeen to seven when Missouri batting in the bottom
• 51:12
  Speaker 6: of the eighth inning in game number one, and they
• 51:14
  Speaker 6: have one more game and Ole Miss in South Carolina underway.
• 51:17
  Speaker 6: South Carolina surprised the eleventh rank Rebels with a win
• 51:20
  Speaker 6: yesterday afternoon. They're playing all day games. They're in Columbia,
• 51:24
  Speaker 6: and Ole Miss leads South Carolina won nothing going to
• 51:27
  Speaker 6: the bottom of the first Kentucky and Tennessee later and
• 51:32
  Speaker 6: also Florida and Mississippi State will begin their series and
• 51:37
  Speaker 6: Vanderbilt in action as well.
• 51:41
  Speaker 5: But Kentucky and Tennessee will be coming up. So anyway,
• 51:44
  Speaker 5: we'll keep you.
• 51:44
  Speaker 6: Posting on all of that, but we'll hear from Colin
• 51:46
  Speaker 6: Simmons up next when we continue on thirteen under the Zone.
• 51:49
  Speaker 6: I saw The Who in concert. This would have been
• 51:54
  Speaker 6: when Reunion Arena was in its infancy early nineteen eighty
• 51:58
  Speaker 6: and it was a great showing all that. But what
• 52:01
  Speaker 6: I do remember most, Cameron Parker, is that I worked
• 52:07
  Speaker 6: in my concert vending days to put myself through college.
• 52:11
  Speaker 6: I worked the Who's and I'm not kidding, this is
• 52:17
  Speaker 6: what it was called farewell tour in December nineteen eighty
• 52:22
  Speaker 6: two in the Cotton Bowl.
• 52:25
  Speaker 5: I had a hoodie actually that they gave.
• 52:27
  Speaker 6: They gave hoodies to the crew because it was you know,
• 52:31
  Speaker 6: it was December, it was kind of chilly, and on
• 52:34
  Speaker 6: the back it says the Who Farewell Tour. I think
• 52:37
  Speaker 6: it was like December fourth, nineteen eighty two, Farewell Tour,
• 52:42
  Speaker 6: Cam Farewell Tour. Do you know how many times The
• 52:45
  Speaker 6: Who has toured since then?
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Do you still have that hoodie?
• 52:51
  Speaker 5: There's a story behind that hoodie, man ext girlfriend has it.
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 52:58
  Speaker 5: It was a deal.
• 53:00
  Speaker 6: It was a deal where I went up to see
• 53:02
  Speaker 6: some friends, several friends in Pittsburgh the next May May
• 53:08
  Speaker 6: of eighty three, and that was the week and it
• 53:14
  Speaker 6: was in May, so school was pretty much out. Other
• 53:17
  Speaker 6: than I can't believe I'm gonna tell a story, but
• 53:20
  Speaker 6: I'm gonna tell it. Schools out other than like some
• 53:24
  Speaker 6: final exams, and this college had.
• 53:31
  Speaker 5: As dorms.
• 53:32
  Speaker 6: They weren't even really I mean, they were kind of
• 53:34
  Speaker 6: dorms for they were like big houses.
• 53:37
  Speaker 5: And I went up there.
• 53:40
  Speaker 6: I thought I was gonna stay with a buddy of mine,
• 53:43
  Speaker 6: but they had some renovations going on, and so this
• 53:47
  Speaker 6: one girl said, where you can stay in the dorm,
• 53:49
  Speaker 6: there's nobody, you can have your own room, there's nobody
• 53:52
  Speaker 6: even in the dorm, that kind of thing.
• 53:54
  Speaker 5: So that was the week.
• 53:55
  Speaker 6: I spent five nights in an all in a dorm
• 53:58
  Speaker 6: and an all girls college five nights. Yeah, yeah, And
• 54:04
  Speaker 6: I know the story. Yeah yeah, yeah, she knows, Yeah, yeah,
• 54:08
  Speaker 6: she knows.
• 54:08
  Speaker 5: I mean it was it was May of nineteen eighty three,
• 54:11
  Speaker 5: for goodness sake, you know. And so yeah, and and.
• 54:18
  Speaker 6: She got my hoodie and I never got it back.
• 54:21
  Speaker 6: So that was the biggest loss of that whole trip.
• 54:23
  Speaker 6: I can tell you that Pittsburgh. I did get to
• 54:25
  Speaker 6: see the Pirates play play the Reds one night. I
• 54:28
  Speaker 6: did go see Pittsburgh played Old three River Stadium, So
• 54:30
  Speaker 6: that was cool. It's the first time I've ever been
• 54:32
  Speaker 6: to that anyway. That's the story behind the Who. Hoodie
• 54:36
  Speaker 6: but the But But the Who was always one of
• 54:38
  Speaker 6: my favorite bands, and they've had so many tours since
• 54:42
  Speaker 6: and every year it's like a farewell tour. I saw
• 54:44
  Speaker 6: him at the Irwin Center back back several years ago.
• 54:48
  Speaker 6: So Roger Daltrey and Pete Townsend and that whole groove
• 54:53
  Speaker 6: was something else, obviously, legends of rock and roll.
• 54:57
  Speaker 5: All right, enough about that kind of stuff. Uh, let's uh, let's.
• 55:01
  Speaker 6: Hear from Colin Simmons, the Loghorns edge rusher, and his
• 55:07
  Speaker 6: thoughts on what he's done in spring practice his number
• 55:11
  Speaker 6: switch from number eleven to number one in the coming season.
• 55:15
  Speaker 16: If you've grown up in a year on and off.
• 55:17
  Speaker 22: The field, I feel like I've grown mentally, physically, and
• 55:25
  Speaker 22: spiritually all in one year being here at the University
• 55:28
  Speaker 22: of Texas.
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Hell, how did I grow? In the Marias?
• 55:36
  Speaker 22: Just being around these coaches, this coaching staff, and being
• 55:40
  Speaker 22: around the players that that and being around the strength
• 55:42
  Speaker 22: staff also just builds the mental and the physical process.
• 55:46
  Speaker 22: And just waking up praying a guy, talking to guy
• 55:48
  Speaker 22: throughout my day helped me from my spiritual point of view,
• 55:52
  Speaker 22: How would you assess your freshman.

• 56:02
  Speaker 22: my eyes, uh, being physical, just playing the run, playing
• 56:07
  Speaker 22: the past, everything, help yourself. How I feel like I
• 56:12
  Speaker 22: had a pretty solid freshman year. It could have been
• 56:14
  Speaker 22: way better, could have been way way better, just knowing
• 56:17
  Speaker 22: just knowing my my talents, you know, knowing myself, knowing
• 56:20
  Speaker 22: my abilities.
• 56:21
  Speaker 3: So you know, it.
• 56:23

• 56:46
  Speaker 16: how does he help you with the help as well?
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: Mentally? Will all the players go through him? Honestly?

  Speaker 6: that walk off grand slam. And you can hear Game
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 6: two of that softball series on the Texas Longorns app
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 6: on and you connect to it through the iHeartRadio app
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 6: and online at Texas loongornge dot com to hear Game
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 6: two of that and again it starts at four point
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 6: thirty at the bottom of the hours.
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 5: Texas tries to win that series.
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 6: Here, Texas tries to win the baseball series with Auburn.
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 5: They won last night three to two.
• 1:10:40
  Speaker 6: Rallied back from the two nothing deficits and managed to
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 6: get a couple of runs you heard me say, a
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 6: triple for Jalen Flores and initially it was put up
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 6: as a triple, but it was changed to a double
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 6: in an er, and I think that was the correct
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 6: call on that because Bristol Carter, the centerfielder, had a
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 6: difficult time coming up with the ball, so I think
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 6: it was but it it got the run home and
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 6: the game ended up being tied. And then of course
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 6: Kimball Schusler with the home run that hit the back
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 6: of the visiting bullpen wall. And as briskly as this
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 6: wind is blowing out here, and it's ninety three degrees
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 6: here the ballpark, so it's a hot, windy afternoon and
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 6: it'll still be a hot windy evening. That ball didn't
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 6: need any help. I mean it flew right out of there.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 6: So Texas gets to win in Game one, and they
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 6: get Game two coming up, and it's gonna be a
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 6: battle of lefties in the contest. Kate Fisher will start
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 6: for Auburn and Fisher one and oh on a three nine.
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 6: He'll make his ninth appearance and start of the season.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 6: Hadn't worked an awful lot twenty five and a third innings,
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 6: but he'll start for Auburn and Luke Harrison will be
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 6: on the mound for Texas Luke two and zero and
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 6: the two nine to three earn run average for the Horns,
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 6: and he'll be making his tenth appearance and tenth start
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 6: of the season. So that's the com It's a six
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 6: forty five pregame start time, and it is a seven
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 6: o'clock first pitch, and you can hear that on one
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 6: oh three point one FM, Austin's eight station, our sister station,
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 6: one oh three point one FM. You can also hear
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 6: it on the Texas Longhorns app, on the the Lahn app.
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 6: Of course, you can connect to it through the iHeartRadio app.
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 6: You can do that, and additionally, you can hear it
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 6: online at Texas long Horns dot com. And if you're
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 6: coming out of the ballgame, if you want to bring
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 6: your you know, your earbuds with with your portable radio
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 6: or your headset radio, whatever you want to do with that,
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 6: you can hear it in our ballpark frequency of eighty
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 6: seven point seven FM.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: So that's the case there. Now, that's what my dad
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 2: did last night.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 8: You brought us AirPods and you didn't really put on
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 8: the stream and he was like, wow, the stream is
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 8: far behind, And I was like, what do you expect.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 3: He just he needs to.
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 5: Just bring bring, bring the little portable radio thing.
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 5: There's lots of fans you like to do. Our friends,
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 5: the Roses, you know.
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 6: They rose, you know, and Marshall Kirkland, who doesn't. She's
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 6: over at softball a lot listen, but they you know,
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 6: they do that. They've got that down with women's basketball,
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 6: and a lot of the fans do that with football.
• 1:13:29
  Speaker 5: Uh and in the in house frequency as well. So
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 5: an app for.
• 1:13:33
  Speaker 2: That, right you think? Or maybe not?
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 6: It's kind of hard to do that in real time though,
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 6: off of an app, you know what I'm saying. To
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 6: do that in a real time app, I think that
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 6: would be extremely difficult to do because there's got to
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 6: be a delay if you're doing it off of an app,
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 6: as opposed to just listening to a frequency that's pulling
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 6: it off almost as quickly as it comes out of
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 6: my mouth, and and Keith Morland's as well. So here
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 6: are the stakes. Texas going into today had a two
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 6: game lead on the Arkansas Razorbacks on top of the
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 6: SEC standings two games Texas fourteen to two. Arkansas was
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 6: lost to Texas A and M last night in their
• 1:14:17
  Speaker 6: series opener seven to four. Arkansas, like Texas, scheduled for
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 6: a Thursday Friday Saturday series. I can tell you right
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 6: now that's not going to happen in Fayetteville. They've had
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 6: to make further adjustments. That more on that in a moment.
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 6: Arkansas's twelve and four Tennessee begins its series at home.
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 5: Against Kentucky tonight.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 6: If they win the first one, that would get them
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 6: to twelve and four, but then it's a real log jam.
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 6: LSU is eleven and five, Georgia is ten and six,
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 6: Auburn and Ole miss are each nine and seven. In
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 6: Vanderbilt as well. Oklahoma is now nine to eight after
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 6: winning their first game to day of a doubleheader. So,
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 6: as I mentioned, I started to say, weather has already
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 6: made its presence felt in this league. And as a
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 6: result of that, two series that were scheduled for Thursday
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 6: Friday Saturday, Oklahoma at Missouri and Texas A and M
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 6: at Arkansas both were then shifted into a Thursday nine game,
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 6: which they all played, and then a doubleheader today because
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 6: they're expecting really in clement weather in the states of
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 6: Missouri and Arkansas, among other places. So first game the
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 6: day between Oklahoma and Missouri no problem for the Sooners.
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 6: They blasted Missouri seventeen to seven, run ruled them in
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 6: the eight innings. So Oklahoma got the win to get
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 6: them to nine and eight in conference play, and they
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 6: go for the sweep of the series in the second
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 6: game that I think is about to get under way.
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 6: It's going to get underway here in a few minutes,
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 6: but it hasn't started yet. Missouris now owen seventeen in
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 6: the league. They have not yet won a conference game.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 7: Now.
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 6: The Arkansas Texas A and M series, which saw the
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 6: Aggies win the opener last night seven to four, and
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 6: like I said, it pushed Arkansas down to twelve and
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 6: four and two games back of Texas. It gave the
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 6: Aggies an eighth straight win and their sixth straight in
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 6: conference play to get to with the victory seven and
• 1:16:35
  Speaker 6: nine in the league. Second game of that series, and
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 6: the first of a doubleheader is underway right now, and
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 6: they've just finished the bottom of the sixth inning. A
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 6: and M started off hot again. They got out to
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 6: a three to nothing lead and it was four to one.
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 6: The Razorbacks have come back with nine unanswered runs spread
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 6: out out of the course of three innings, and they've
• 1:16:56
  Speaker 6: just finished the bottom of six and Arkansas's up ten fours.
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 5: They go to the seventh.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 6: So if Arkansas wins that game, they will have split
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 6: the two games and then they'll have one more game
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 6: to be played this evening at ball Walker Stadium in Fayetteville.
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 6: So Texas, you know, they picked up a game on
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 6: Arkansas last night. Arkansas may pick up a half game
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 6: on Texas if they hold on and win the first game,
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 6: penning the outcome of the Longhorns game to night, and
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 6: it's going to start right around that same time as
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 6: the long worn game. Now, actually, the Texas game, I
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 6: believe is going to start early. I think it's earlier.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 6: I think it's going to be at six. And remember
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 6: that contest. The Texas game was moved forward by one
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 6: hour from seven.
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 5: O'clock to six o'clock.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 6: That's because they had to move tomorrow's game, originally scheduled
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 6: for two in the afternoon forward to noon. And since
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 6: they did that moving it forward to noon, who wanted
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 6: to give the two teams at a little more time tomorrow.
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 6: So that's why they moved this evening's game foward by
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 6: one hour. To six o'clock. So that's the situation there,
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 6: and because of that, the Texas game will start an
• 1:18:15
  Speaker 6: hour I believe before that second Arkansas Texas A and
• 1:18:18
  Speaker 6: M game. But again razorbacks up ten to four in
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 6: the seventh inning. The other one a bit of a surprise.
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 6: Eleventh rank Old miss which lost at South Carolina yesterday afternoon,
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 6: is trailing the game Cocks in game two of that series.
• 1:18:34
  Speaker 6: It's four to one South Carolina leading. That's in the
• 1:18:37
  Speaker 6: top of the fourth and as I mentioned, Kentucky and
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 6: Tennessee will get underway at five point thirty. That's the
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 6: first game of their weekend series. Also, the first game
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 6: of a weekend series will be Florida and Mississippi State
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 6: and start bill to night. Georgia and Vanderbilt Big Series
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 6: will start at six o'clock tonight. Vanderbilt won the series
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 6: opener last night and LSU, which came back with a
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 6: couple of three run homers late to be that. Alabama
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 6: will host the Crimson Tide. Game two of that series
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 6: is at six o'clock tonight. So that gets caught up
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 6: on baseball. There's one other thing we need to tell
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 6: you about, and we'll do that when we come back,
• 1:19:11
  Speaker 6: because it's going to be a bridge between baseball and
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 6: long worn football. Think about it as we go to
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 6: the break. And then we're also going to hear from
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 6: Anthony Hill, Longhorn's linebacker. But up next we're going to
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 6: visit with Geene Watson, and he is, of course our
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 6: man with the Chicago White Sox. That's next when we
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 6: continue on thirteen hundred Zone. But of course it's Major
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 6: League Baseball weekend as well, and a big one, a
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 6: big weekend for several teams, including the Texas Rangers, who
• 1:19:44
  Speaker 6: have the Dodgers at a home this weekend. Here to
• 1:19:48
  Speaker 6: join us with our weekly conversation about Major League Baseball,
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 6: straight out of Temple, Texas, USA, but from the Chicago
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 6: White Sox front office Gene Watson, who joins us. You're
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 6: in Triple A country again tonight, are you not, Geno?
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 24: No, I'm actually at Edmund Santa Fe High School watching
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 24: uh ethan Holiday and and Eli Willets play. There's a
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 24: big first round match up here, high school matchup, So
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 24: I'm on the amateur scene tonight.
• 1:20:17
  Speaker 6: Okay, Now, Eli Willets, is he the son of Reggie yep?
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 7: I thought then and Ethan is the son of Matt Holliday.
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 24: So there's a Ian Kinsler's here, Phil Nevin's here, Jim
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 24: Tomey's here.
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 7: There's a lot of star power here at this game today.
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 6: Do you notice do you ever notice Gino when you
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 6: go to watch prospects and I'm talking to high school
• 1:20:38
  Speaker 6: not necessarily collegiate level though could possibly apply to college games,
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 6: but especially high school guys. Uh, when you go to
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 6: watch it and they're aware of your presence, do they are?
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 6: Do you ever notice that they notice? And that it
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 6: gets a little bit you know, nervous for them or whatever,
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 6: that that sort of thing.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 24: You know what, Funny enough, it's for the prospects, it's not,
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 24: But for the kids that aren't the prospects it is.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 24: And it's really fun to see the innocence of the game.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 24: And really I personally try to, you know, yesterday, meeting
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 24: with Eli Willitts, tried to say hello, every kid on
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 24: his team, He's from Fort Cobb, Oklahoma and they were
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 24: playing in Low Grove, Oklahoma, to you know, two dots
• 1:21:26
  Speaker 24: on a map, and you know, so you want to
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 24: respect any time of players in uniform. You want to
• 1:21:32
  Speaker 24: show them proper respect and just honor them for the
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 24: work that they put in to be a part of
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 24: the team. And so it's a lot of fun, especially
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 24: when you get into the smaller towns across the United States.
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 6: All Right, I'm I'm I'm going to ask you a question.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 6: You fill in the blank by this, not pictures, not pictures.
• 1:21:50
  Speaker 5: The best young.
• 1:21:53
  Speaker 6: Major league prospect who's already in the bigs right now?
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 6: The best young Major league are right now, regardless of league,
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 6: regardless of the vision, regardless of club. The best young
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 6: major league player right now is.
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 7: Oh my gosh, you putting me on the spot now.
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 6: And I'm saying not established stars and superstars as well.
• 1:22:15
  Speaker 24: Jackson Holiday, who's still kind of scuffling offensively, has got
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 24: all the star power in the world. We've got a
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 24: young catcher named Edgar Quero that's from Cuba that.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 7: Was acquired by the La Angels.
• 1:22:27
  Speaker 24: It's really going to be a high potential offensive upside player.
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 24: I mean, h zach Netto with the La Angels is
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 24: not quite yet established yet. This guy is going to be,
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 24: you know, a ten year, fifteen year major league shortstop.
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 7: And so.
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 24: I will tell you the game is getting younger it's
• 1:22:46
  Speaker 24: there's so much star power on the way, and they
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 24: do such a great job of promoting these prospects now
• 1:22:51
  Speaker 24: and now more than ever, prospects that sign out of
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 24: the draft, they get to the big leagues quicker than
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 24: ever now, And so the game is in in really
• 1:23:00
  Speaker 24: good shape from a talent standpoint, and you know, the Major.
• 1:23:04
  Speaker 7: League Baseball has done a great job of securing that.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 6: Here's why I bring that up because you mentioned this
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 6: young man last week. He's in his third he just
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 6: started his third major league season.
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 5: I'm talking about Tyler Soderstrom of the Athletics.
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 6: What are the kinds of things because I've seen a
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 6: lot of stuff where folks talk about him having real
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 6: not just star power potential, but superstar power potential.
• 1:23:27
  Speaker 5: What do you agree with that? And do you see
• 1:23:28
  Speaker 5: that one hundred percent?
• 1:23:30
  Speaker 24: And you know what he and I mean this, he
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 24: might hit fifty this year because they're playing in Sacramento
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 24: and when Andy heats up, he's got a chance to
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 24: hit fifty home runs. Tyler's brother actually worked for me
• 1:23:41
  Speaker 24: in Kansas City. He was one of my scouts in
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 24: Kansas City and went back to law school and their
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 24: family owns an Almond, an almond factory in Almond Farm
• 1:23:50
  Speaker 24: in northern California, and Tyler was actually it was between
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 24: Garrett Crochet and Tyler Salderstrum for the Chicago White Sox pick.
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 7: And obviously we drive greup for Shay.
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 24: But what a tremendous talent and what a fun team
• 1:24:04
  Speaker 24: we just played in three games they swept us.
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 7: We play them again three games next week.
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 24: And I'm telling you, if you want to watch a fun,
• 1:24:11
  Speaker 24: young team that can beat you a lot of different ways,
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 24: pay attention to the athletics because they're coming and he's
• 1:24:18
  Speaker 24: going to be a big part of what they're doing.
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 7: But he's got a chance to hit fifty this.
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 24: Year with the ballpark they're going to be playing in
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 24: and the pace he's on right now.
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 6: Yeah, there's another guy that I want to ask you
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 6: about because I was watching.
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 5: The Blue Jays play the other and.
• 1:24:40
  Speaker 6: The guy that I was interested in getting your thoughts
• 1:24:44
  Speaker 6: on is Alan Rodin. And he's a guy who's hitting
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 6: three twenty right now, and he's he's a guy that
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 6: all of a sudden has attracted a lot of attention
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 6: and he's only a rookie. The blue Jay's left fielder
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 6: Alan Roden. What can you tell us about him?
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 24: Well, he's just a young offensive player. You know, he
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 24: he really slings the bat. Well, he was a third
• 1:25:06
  Speaker 24: round pick out of Creighton University and and you know
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 24: he's going to be more hit than power.
• 1:25:12
  Speaker 7: Uh but but he's a baseball.
• 1:25:13
  Speaker 24: Player consission and they really like him, and you know,
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 24: he's a big part of what their future is going
• 1:25:17
  Speaker 24: to be in as they you know, now they've locked
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 24: up Vladimir Guerrero Junior.
• 1:25:21
  Speaker 7: Not sure what's going to happen.
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 24: With Boba Shd, but but he is certainly a big
• 1:25:25
  Speaker 24: part of what the future is going to be in.
• 1:25:27
  Speaker 7: A really nice college player out of create University.
• 1:25:30
  Speaker 5: YEP.
• 1:25:31
  Speaker 6: Talking to Baseball with Gene Watson here on thirteen under
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 6: the Zoner. Okay, let's get some analysis from you early tests,
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 6: not only for the Rangers, but also for the Dodgers,
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 6: who kind of went through after they started eight to no.
• 1:25:44
  Speaker 6: They dropped six of nine. Now they've won three in
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 6: a row. Colorado's a slump buster, we know that they
• 1:25:49
  Speaker 6: and they beat the Rockies to so they've gone five
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 6: hundred since that eight no start. They're six and six
• 1:25:55
  Speaker 6: and they're playing the Rangers who have been red red hot,
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 6: and you have picked the rain Years right from the
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 6: start as being a legitimate not only division contender, but
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 6: American League contender. You've picked picked them right from the
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 6: start as being a team that could win the whole thing.
• 1:26:10
  Speaker 6: How do you see this weekend series in Arlington shaping up?
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 24: Well, you know, you can't win the division in April,
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 24: you can't win the World Series in April, but you
• 1:26:19
  Speaker 24: can lose it in April.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 7: And the other thing is.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 24: Is like when you get these series that are taking
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 24: place right now, like what the Cubs did to the Dodgers,
• 1:26:26
  Speaker 24: I don't think anything anybody saw that coming. And I
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 24: think it's a great measure for the Chicago Cubs. And
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 24: you look at the Dodgers and Rangers this weekend, I
• 1:26:34
  Speaker 24: think it's going to be a measure because I think
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 24: when you look around the league, it's really about two
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 24: maybe three teams purp the division that really have a
• 1:26:43
  Speaker 24: strong chance to win. And so when you're matching up
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 24: against those teams, even though it's April, you want to play.
• 1:26:48
  Speaker 7: Your best baseball.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 24: But why you're playing these series, you're also saying, Okay,
• 1:26:52
  Speaker 24: should we play this team again.
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 7: In October, beat in the playoffs or in the World Series.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 24: What are we going to have to do to improve
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 24: to beat these So they're they're not you know, Winter
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 24: Guy series, but they are a little bit of statement
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 24: series early in the season, just to find out as
• 1:27:07
  Speaker 24: you begin to separate the upper tier of clubs from
• 1:27:10
  Speaker 24: the lower tier clubs, like who's good? What are the
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 24: strengths of weeknesses of those teams? And what are we
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 24: gonna have to do to improve come July?
• 1:27:16
  Speaker 6: All Right, I know I've thought about you when I
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 6: read this story, because we talked about this a week ago,
• 1:27:23
  Speaker 6: the weird, freaky injuries that can happen to baseball players.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 6: And then I read the story about Patrick Corbyn picking
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 6: up his first win of the season on Wednesday and
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 6: he almost didn't get to pitch because there was venom
• 1:27:36
  Speaker 6: from a bite on his foot. And he said the
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 6: quote yesterday was they said something bit me. I still
• 1:27:43
  Speaker 6: don't know what it was. I've never had anything like that.
• 1:27:46
  Speaker 6: It's super weird. Bruce Bochy said it was fifty to
• 1:27:48
  Speaker 6: fifty whether he would even pitch against the Angels, and
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 6: he went five to the third in the llowed one
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 6: run and he got the win over that the swelling
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 6: came up through a visible bite mark on his foot.
• 1:28:01
  Speaker 6: He said it was tolerable. He said it was really
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 6: bad in the morning. Just weird what what teams and
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 6: players go through, isn't it during the course of a season,
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 6: Not just the regular injuries that happen through playing the game,
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 6: but injuries away from the game.
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 24: Well, we'll think about in a given day. You know,
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 24: you wake up, you go to the ballpark, you play
• 1:28:21
  Speaker 24: a game, you're in a you're in a hotel room
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 24: that you're not familiar with. You're in ubers and and
• 1:28:26
  Speaker 24: buses that you're not familiar with. You don't know what's
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 24: on them. Your bags are moving all over hotel back
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 24: lobbies and and airport transports and and so you're constantly
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 24: intrensient and and you just never know what you're going
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 24: to run into. I mean, it's it happens all the time.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 24: We're all find things in my bag or find things.
• 1:28:44
  Speaker 24: You all be on a on a sitting in a
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 24: plane and a spiral run across. I mean, it's just
• 1:28:49
  Speaker 24: because you're constantly in motion, your bags are constantly in motion,
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 24: You're constantly in unfamiliar environments. That that strange things seem
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 24: to happen. We're all sitting here waiting for to drop
• 1:29:00
  Speaker 24: down and right now everybody's prepared for that. I mean,
• 1:29:04
  Speaker 24: it's just you're constantly It's I said today, you're constantly
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 24: out of.
• 1:29:08
  Speaker 7: Adrilline rush because you just never know what's going to
• 1:29:10
  Speaker 7: happen next.
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 24: But but I think it's hilarious because you know, it's
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 24: the ways that the guys somehow get injured.
• 1:29:16
  Speaker 7: It's just it's it's crazy how it happens.
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 5: Yeah, no doubt about.
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 6: All right, So you know the restaurants see nashally better
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 6: than I do. But I but I do know that
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 6: if you're in the Oaklhom City area, if you got
• 1:29:26
  Speaker 6: a day game, you know, Mahogany is a good stake option.
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 5: And I that's for sure.
• 1:29:30
  Speaker 24: We had a great breakfast at Hatch, and I think
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 24: that there.
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 5: You go, gotta have Nick's all right. Final thing here?
• 1:29:38
  Speaker 5: What would be? And it's early.
• 1:29:40
  Speaker 6: I preface all this by saying it's very very early
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 6: that the most teams have not even played twenty ballgames yet.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 6: So but in your estimation, what would be the biggest
• 1:29:50
  Speaker 6: surprise to you by virtue of early struggles? Would it
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 6: be the Orioles at eight and ten, Would it be
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 6: the Astros at eight and ten, or to be the
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 6: Braves at five and thirteen.
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 24: Well, no question, it's the Braves. I don't think anybody
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 24: saw that one coming. And it was just such a
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 24: weird start for them to have to go to Arizona
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 24: and play those early exhibition games against the Cubs, and
• 1:30:13
  Speaker 24: then start out in San.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 7: Diego and then go to La and just.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 24: Not being fully healthy, their rotation not being as set
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 24: as possible, the know Zuna situation, you know, Brian Snicker
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 24: coming out and saying he may.
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 7: Not return for twenty six.
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 24: I think there's just kind of a lot of anticipation
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 24: around the organization right now. But they're ultra talented in
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 24: a very tough division, and that will and they will
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 24: settle in. I think with Houston, we talked about, you know,
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 24: you don't lose Alex Reregman and.
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 7: Kyle Tucker without digressing somewhat. Still a very talented team.
• 1:30:44
  Speaker 24: They definitely improved their future financially, and with a prospect
• 1:30:50
  Speaker 24: like Cam Smith coming back in that deal.
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 7: But Atlanta, that would be a biggest.
• 1:30:55
  Speaker 24: Surprise of all right now in Baltimore. You know, I
• 1:30:57
  Speaker 24: think that they just have to you know, they got
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 24: look at Uh, they have arguably one of the best
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 24: systems in baseball. I think they have to look at
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 24: the subtractions that they lost from that major league team,
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 24: and then you look at Boston what they did to
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 24: add to that major league team.
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 7: So you're you're gonna have to evaluate.
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 24: Your system and decide, you know, which way you're gonna
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 24: go to give up some prospects to try to get
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 24: back in the hunt with with the Boston and with
• 1:31:21
  Speaker 24: the Yankees and with Toronto the way they're playing right now.
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 5: No doubt about it.
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 6: Hey, uh, take cover if you need to over there,
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 6: and uh yeah, uh have that burger at Nicks, because
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 6: that's something else. As you and I both know, that's
• 1:31:33
  Speaker 6: that's that's an amazing Uh, that's an amazing uh burger. Hey,
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 6: I appreciate it. Gena, will visit again next week.
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 7: All right, Craig, have a great weekend.
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 5: You bet you too.
• 1:31:43
  Speaker 6: Uh we're talking about the Hamburger Nick Grill in Oklahoma City.
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 6: It's uh, it's it's quite a nice yeah. Yeah, you
• 1:31:52
  Speaker 6: had it, you had it. Yeah, So it's it's something else.
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 6: You went when you went up there to do the
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 6: express game, right, Yeah, I did recommendation he went to Knicks,
• 1:32:01
  Speaker 6: probably had several recommendations to go to Knicks.
• 1:32:04
  Speaker 5: But it's quite something.
• 1:32:07
  Speaker 7: All right.
• 1:32:08
  Speaker 6: Coming up, we're gonna hear from Anthony Hill and we'll
• 1:32:12
  Speaker 6: talk about that connective tissue I mentioned between long worn
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 6: baseball and football when we continue here from UFCU deush
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 6: Falkfield and thirteen under his own.
• 1:32:19
  Speaker 5: This should fire you up before we hear from Anthony Hill.
• 1:32:22
  Speaker 6: Like I said, there's a connective tissue between Longhorn baseball
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 6: and football. And if you followed it and follow the
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 6: recruiting of it very very well, you know all about
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 6: Joanah Williams.
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 5: Jonah, of course, was an all.
• 1:32:35
  Speaker 6: District baseball player, but he was a consensus five star
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 6: football prospect, rated the number one safety in the nation
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 6: in his class and the number six overall recruit in
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 6: his class, number eight overall prospect in the ESPN three hundred.
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 6: Tremendous football talent, but obviously a really good baseball player
• 1:32:55
  Speaker 6: as well, and he's been on the roster, hasn't played
• 1:32:57
  Speaker 6: much well. Tonight, Williams gets his first start on the
• 1:33:02
  Speaker 6: baseball field as a Texas Longhorn, he will be the
• 1:33:05
  Speaker 6: starting left fielder.
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 5: Die.
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 6: Remember the Longhorns really banged up right now, and Texas
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 6: has had a regular rotation of guys in left field,
• 1:33:15
  Speaker 6: including Adrian Rodriguez coming off the injury. But Adrian not
• 1:33:20
  Speaker 6: in the lineup with a left hander on the mound
• 1:33:23
  Speaker 6: for Auburn, at least not initially not in the lineup.
• 1:33:26
  Speaker 6: And Ethan Mendoza has to d age he is unable
• 1:33:30
  Speaker 6: to play the field position with his banged up shoulder
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 6: right now. So Jade de Plantier will start at second
• 1:33:35
  Speaker 6: base and over in left field where we've seen the
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 6: Plantier and Rodriguez and Easton Winfield and Tommy Farmer before
• 1:33:42
  Speaker 6: the injury. Of course, the fractured thumb for Max below
• 1:33:47
  Speaker 6: that moved Farmer over the right. Now Joan Williams will
• 1:33:51
  Speaker 6: get an opportunity, so he'll be the starting left fielder tonight.
• 1:33:54
  Speaker 5: Will Johan Williams before the Longhorns.
• 1:33:57
  Speaker 6: All right, let's talk some longer football and doing the
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 6: talking right now. The guy does the talking on the defense.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 6: He is that defensive captain, the guy who has the
• 1:34:07
  Speaker 6: defense run through that central nervous system. Of course, the
• 1:34:10
  Speaker 6: preseason All American linebacker Anthony Hill.
• 1:34:13
  Speaker 16: First impressions of defense so far, Like, where are y'all?
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 16: Four week sits?
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 3: Man?
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 25: Well, we're a pretty young group, but I feel like
• 1:34:18
  Speaker 25: we got a lot of young guys putting it together
• 1:34:20
  Speaker 25: and getting better every day.
• 1:34:21
  Speaker 3: So that's really all we can ask for.
• 1:34:23
  Speaker 16: Who's a young guy that's really caught your eyes?
• 1:34:26
  Speaker 3: Mmm, Kobe Blackman having a good one.
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 25: They're not young guys, but warning, Terry Lan's been having
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 25: some good days.
• 1:34:34
  Speaker 16: I said. Brad Spens been fitting in with you guys.
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 3: Oh, he's been fitting in perfect.
• 1:34:38
  Speaker 25: He was coming off an injury, but he's been doing
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 25: real good since he came back. I mean he's been
• 1:34:41
  Speaker 25: playing a little bit of linebacker rushing off the is
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 25: so he's been doing a good job kind of doing
• 1:34:45
  Speaker 25: both and he's been making like a real impact on
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 25: the field.
• 1:34:47
  Speaker 10: Spring practice flit for you. What he been working on?
• 1:34:50
  Speaker 25: Mostly me, I just been kind of working on the details.
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 25: I mean, I already know I can make the big players,
• 1:34:54
  Speaker 25: but just trying to refine my game, work on the details,
• 1:34:57
  Speaker 25: full work, hand place men, little stuff to just make
• 1:35:00
  Speaker 25: sure I can take the next step.
• 1:35:01

  Speaker 3: new scheme, so.
• 1:35:10
  Speaker 25: They're just trying to get better every day and that's
• 1:35:12
  Speaker 25: really all we can ask for.
• 1:35:13
  Speaker 10: Cool, they're cool.

• 1:35:37
  Speaker 25: in the moment.

  Speaker 7: What even should that?
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 13: You know, it to a chance for young players and
• 1:35:41
  Speaker 13: young teams to take leadership.

  Speaker 7: Oh?
• 1:35:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Makes it makes it easier on us.
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 25: I mean, we don't have to force guys to work hard,

  Speaker 25: so they come in working hard. They can just integrate
• 1:35:58
  Speaker 25: in and right on in and just get the working.
