1:08
Speaker 1: slapped together a show, believe it or not. We're gonna
1:11
Speaker 1: award our weekly winner from last week for the contests
1:15
Speaker 1: coming up here in a minute. We've got our high
1:17
Speaker 1: school report. We're gonna hear from LSU football coach Brian Kelly,
1:23
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna be joined by author Dan Beck. He
1:28
Speaker 1: has written a book on Michael Jackson. There have been
1:33
Speaker 1: several of course, Beck is a former record exec with Epic.
1:38
Speaker 1: The book is called You've Got Michael Living Through History.
1:43
Speaker 3: It is intriguing, it is fascinating.
1:46
Speaker 1: Like everything else about Michael Jackson, Dan Beck will join
1:49
Speaker 1: us and in the second hour pund the neighbors.
1:53
Speaker 3: And wake the kids.
1:55
Speaker 1: I'm pulling out an interview that we did back in
1:57
Speaker 1: June with the great Errol Razor Ray, the best game
2:02
Speaker 1: analyst in any sport. For the Dallas Stars Stars Hockey
2:07
Speaker 1: is back underway and we caught up with Ray after
2:13
Speaker 1: winning the coveted Forrest Hewitt Award for Contribution to the
2:18
Speaker 1: sport of Hockey.
2:21
Speaker 3: Razor is just.
2:24
Speaker 1: A riddle wrapped in an enigma. No, no, no, he
2:27
Speaker 1: is just always fun and we're gonna do that.
2:30
Speaker 3: And also Mallory.
2:33
Speaker 1: Texas A and M has been found in violation of
2:37
Speaker 1: the n C Double A playing rule governing feigned injuries.
2:44
Speaker 1: They have been fined fifty thousand dollars and Mike Elko
2:49
Speaker 1: has been placed on double secret probation. Video of the incident,
2:56
Speaker 1: which was sent by the SEC to the National Coordinator
3:01
Speaker 1: for Football Officiating, occurred with twelve fifty five left in
3:06
Speaker 1: the game after Arkansas completed a pass for a first
3:09
Speaker 1: down just outside the A and M ten. After the
3:12
Speaker 1: ball is spotted, Tarique Chappelle seen going to the ground,
3:17
Speaker 1: creating an appearance of an injury. An A and M
3:21
Speaker 1: staff member on video can be seen standing in the
3:24
Speaker 1: team area signaling to the player pointing to the ground.
3:30
Speaker 1: It was noted that the an M player had no
3:32
Speaker 1: contact on the play returned to the game on the
3:34
Speaker 1: second play of the ensuing defensive possession. The action by
3:40
Speaker 1: the player, especially quote concurrent action by the coach and
3:44
Speaker 1: the team era as a clear attempt to gain an
3:47
Speaker 1: unmerited advantage by stopping the game to be awarded an
3:52
Speaker 1: injury time out. The official statement from Mike Elko's office,
3:58
Speaker 1: we respect the SEC's decision and understand the importance of
4:02
Speaker 1: upholding the integrity of the game. While we accept the ruling,
4:06
Speaker 1: we do not agree with the decision and want to
4:09
Speaker 1: be clear that we never coach or instruct our players
4:12
Speaker 1: to fade injury. Texas A and M Football remains firmly
4:15
Speaker 1: committed to the highest standards of sportsmanship, competitiveness, and integrity.
4:22
Speaker 1: Will use this as an opportunity to review our processes
4:27
Speaker 1: and ensure we continue to represent our great university and
4:31
Speaker 1: the SEC with class and accountability. Big twelve Commissioner Brett
4:38
Speaker 1: yor Mark said today he's in favor of expanding the
4:42
Speaker 1: NCAA Basketball Tournament and the College Football Playoff, though he
4:47
Speaker 1: remains cautious about exactly how too of those will look
4:53
Speaker 1: in the future. In Cuba, President Charlie Baker said he
4:57
Speaker 1: supported the expansion of March Madness, which why wouldn't you?
5:01
Speaker 1: Because March Madness has been such an epic failure.
5:04
Speaker 3: Over the years. Let's start screwing around with it. How
5:09
Speaker 3: can we change it? How can we make it better?
5:12
Speaker 1: Let's use let's say seventy six as the new number
5:17
Speaker 1: going forward. Marcel Reid is the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose
5:22
Speaker 1: Award National Player of the Week, counting for four touchdowns,
5:27
Speaker 1: completing twenty three of thirty two for two hundred and
5:30
Speaker 1: eighty two hundred eighty yards, three tds, rush for fifty
5:34
Speaker 1: five yards and a score on six carries, and a
5:39
Speaker 1: and M's forty five forty two win over the Piggy
5:42
Speaker 1: People on Saturday. Former Alabama coach Nick Saban says he
5:48
Speaker 1: isn't surprised by the recent string of high profile firings
5:51
Speaker 1: in college football because fans and alumni who donate money
5:55
Speaker 1: are more influential than ever. There have been nine in season,
6:00
Speaker 1: firing six at power four. You know, I'm not surprised.
6:04
Speaker 1: Everybody's raising money to pay players. So the people that
6:07
Speaker 1: are giving them money think they have a voice, and
6:09
Speaker 1: they're just like a bunch of fans. When they get
6:12
Speaker 1: frustrated and disappointed, they put pressure on the athletic directors
6:15
Speaker 1: to take action.
6:17
Speaker 3: It's the way of the world.
6:21
Speaker 1: Mariners catcher Cal Rawley says the season didn't ended like
6:27
Speaker 1: he thought it would. Don't blame Raleigh. Raleigh hit a
6:34
Speaker 1: home run last night and gave the Mariners a three
6:37
Speaker 1: to one lead in the fifth inning, but they manage
6:42
Speaker 1: their way out of that with their closer not warmed
6:47
Speaker 1: up in the bullpen. George Springer hit a three run
6:52
Speaker 1: Springer Dinger in the bottom of the seventh to give
6:56
Speaker 1: the Toronto Blue Jays the alcs and a chance to
7:00
Speaker 1: play the Dodgers in the World Series that will begin
7:04
Speaker 1: on Friday evening. The Angels are hiring special assistant Kurt
7:09
Speaker 1: Suzuki as the team's next manager. Suzuki spent the last
7:13
Speaker 1: three years as a special assistant to the GM Suzuki,
7:18
Speaker 1: replacing Ron Washington, who was fired at the end of
7:21
Speaker 1: the regular season. There were reports that owner Artie Moreno
7:26
Speaker 1: was targeting Albert Puholz, who did interview.
7:29
Speaker 3: For the position.
7:33
Speaker 1: The forty two year old former player will return to
7:37
Speaker 1: a team that hasn't made the playoffs in eleven years.
7:42
Speaker 1: Six time Super Bowl winning head coach Bill Belichick advanced
7:47
Speaker 1: to the final twelve coaches for the twenty twenty six
7:50
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. Tom Coughlin, Mike Shanahan, George Seffert, Mike Holmgren,
7:57
Speaker 1: Bill Arnsberger, Alex Gibbs, Chuck Knox, but He Parker, Dan Reeves,
8:02
Speaker 1: Marty Schottenheimer, Clark Shaughnessy. A Blue Ribbon committee will review
8:07
Speaker 1: reduce the field to nine semi finalists and eventually down
8:12
Speaker 1: to one home Grin earned the last spot last year,
8:16
Speaker 1: but fell short in the final vote. I'm not sure
8:19
Speaker 1: why Dan Reeves is not already in the Hall of Fame.
8:23
Speaker 1: That kind of surprises me. But hey, that's just me
8:29
Speaker 1: and Dallas Stars back at home. They're hosting the Columbus
8:34
Speaker 1: Bluejackets tonight. The Stars are three and two in the
8:37
Speaker 1: early part.
8:38
Speaker 4: Of the season.
8:39
Speaker 1: All Right, when we come back, we're going to try
8:42
Speaker 1: to give something away. Well, we are going to give
8:44
Speaker 1: something away. Whether the person takes it or not, that's
8:47
Speaker 1: a whole other issue. The final lap is brought to
8:50
Speaker 1: you by Nco Insurance.
8:53
Speaker 5: Enco Insurance is now a part of Hub International, bringing
8:57
Speaker 5: you more choices, better value, and even greater expertise. While

9:25
Speaker 6: NASCAR Exfinity Series race recap from Talladega Superspeedway.
9:28
Speaker 4: I'm Kerrie Murphy.
9:30
Speaker 6: Austin Hill led forty eight of the one hundred laps
9:32
Speaker 6: on the day to capture the checkered flag.
9:34
Speaker 7: I had just as much to lose as they did.
9:37
Speaker 7: The owner championship pays more than the driver's championship does,
9:40
Speaker 7: so to me, it seems like the owners Championship should
9:42
Speaker 7: probably get a little more props for if you was
9:45
Speaker 7: to win that, right, I thought it was a little
9:47
Speaker 7: easier to make it go single file like it was
9:49
Speaker 7: there at the end of the race where we were
9:50
Speaker 7: able to go single file there and we were all
9:52
Speaker 7: ripping top.
9:53
Speaker 8: Yeah.
9:54
Speaker 7: I mean I was viewing it as I was one
9:56
Speaker 7: of the drivers in the final eight, and that's just
9:59
Speaker 7: how I rased everyone. Raced everyone extremely hard and made
10:02
Speaker 7: a lot of big moves, but thought I had raised
10:04
Speaker 7: everyone with a lot of respect and just did everything
10:06
Speaker 7: that we needed to do tonight with our Minis Chevrolet
10:08
Speaker 7: to get the job done. And that was the thing.
10:10
Speaker 7: Right after the Rover and when we had our issue
10:12
Speaker 7: and we got knocked out and all those things that
10:14
Speaker 7: happened going into Vegas, you know, our mindset was, we're
10:17
Speaker 7: still racing for a championship. We're racing for an owner championship,
10:20
Speaker 7: something that I wanted or want to bring to UH
10:23
Speaker 7: Richard Childers and everybody at our cr ECR and now
10:27
Speaker 7: we get to go try to do that.
10:29
Speaker 3: Let's see here.

Speaker 6: Carson Quopple was second, followed by Justin Olgeyer, Christian Ekes
10:33
Speaker 6: and Caesar Baccarella rounds out the top five. Locked into

Speaker 1: to be visiting with author Dan Beck and his book

Speaker 1: on Michael Jackson. You've got Michael living through History. But
15:24
Speaker 1: right now we want to hear from LSU football coach
15:28
Speaker 1: Brian Kelly.
15:30
Speaker 14: We have a great opportunity this weekend in Tiger Stadium.
15:34
Speaker 14: You know to play the number three team in the country.
15:38
Speaker 14: That's exciting, and we believe the way we're moving, if
15:42
Speaker 14: we continue to get better on both sides of the ball,
15:47
Speaker 14: we're prepared.
15:47
Speaker 15: To win the game. We believe we can win the game.
15:50
Speaker 14: So you know, I hope our fan base understands that
15:55
Speaker 14: we're disappointed.
15:58
Speaker 15: We are committed to.
16:00
Speaker 14: Working to getting better every single day, and we're excited
16:03
Speaker 14: about a great matchup this weekend in Tiger Stadium. Certainly
16:08
Speaker 14: a and M outstanding football team.
16:12
Speaker 13: You know, when you.
16:13
Speaker 14: Look at them, you know they're they're defensively, you know,
16:18
Speaker 14: they've got some outstanding players. You know, the courter, the linebacker,
16:24
Speaker 14: York is outstanding. I love them last year twenty one.
16:27
Speaker 14: He's all over the field, instinct of how leads the
16:30
Speaker 14: sec in sacks.
16:31
Speaker 15: He's somebody that you have to.
16:33
Speaker 14: Know where he is all the time, uh and appropriately
16:38
Speaker 14: plan for him. You know, Offensively, Marcel Reid is doing
16:42
Speaker 14: an incredible job at the quarterback position taking that over.
16:45
Speaker 14: They've got outstanding backs and Owens and Moss and and
16:49
Speaker 14: very deep and talented with craver and conception, outstanding receivers
16:54
Speaker 14: that can do a lot of things with the ball
16:55
Speaker 14: as well.
16:56
Speaker 15: So very talented team.
16:58
Speaker 14: I think it would be one of the better offsive minds,
17:00
Speaker 14: if not the best offensive line we're going to see
17:02
Speaker 14: this year. But I think overall, you know, our team
17:07
Speaker 14: is excited about this opportunity and we're gonna we're gonna
17:11
Speaker 14: play well, and we're gonna need to to beat the
17:13
Speaker 14: number three team in the country.
17:15
Speaker 15: So with that will open up the questions.
17:19
Speaker 16: Coach, you've talked about just the lack of execution in
17:22
Speaker 16: those goal line situations. Do you feel like, after going
17:25
Speaker 16: back and watching the film, this is an execution thing
17:27
Speaker 16: or is it more of a mentality slash attitude when
17:29
Speaker 16: you get inside the five yards?
17:31
Speaker 14: Well, which one do you want me to bring up?
17:32
Speaker 14: I can bring up the one where we we we
17:35
Speaker 14: we have a false start penalty, you know, or we
17:38
Speaker 14: have a wide open touchdown. You know that's we've seen
17:43
Speaker 14: that happen so many times in this game. Unfortunately, it
17:45
Speaker 14: was a timely error in that situation. You know that
17:49
Speaker 14: that caused us cost us four points in that situation, right.
17:55
Speaker 14: I think in each one of them is a little
17:58
Speaker 14: bit different. I think if we had to impact you know,
18:03
Speaker 14: another third down situation where it was.
18:07
Speaker 15: All out blitz that.
18:09
Speaker 14: You know, we could have certainly tapped down the routes
18:13
Speaker 14: and gotten the ball out a little bit quicker. But
18:16
Speaker 14: there's no major issues as much as at that time,
18:20
Speaker 14: at that crucial time with forty nine plays, they're magnified
18:24
Speaker 14: if there's any errors at all at all. And that's
18:28
Speaker 14: what this game came down to, and I mentioned it
18:30
Speaker 14: many times. It's like playing a triple option team. You
18:32
Speaker 14: don't get many possessions. We had five possessions going into
18:35
Speaker 14: the fourth quarter, and so when you have limited possessions,
18:40
Speaker 14: those errors are magnified by ten.
18:46
Speaker 15: Coach.
18:46
Speaker 1: I've heard some former players and others say there's a
18:48
Speaker 1: lack of physicality on this football team, in particularly on
18:51
Speaker 1: the offensive side of the ball.
18:52
Speaker 15: Are you seeing that? Well, I think we need to
18:55
Speaker 15: be more physical.
18:56
Speaker 14: I think there's always the need for physicality, right you play.
19:00
Speaker 14: This game really is about.
19:05
Speaker 15: Who you are.
19:05
Speaker 14: You know, football is a game of violent collisions, and
19:10
Speaker 14: certainly from an offensive line standpoint, you know everybody's going
19:14
Speaker 14: to look towards the physicality there on the offensive line.
19:18
Speaker 14: Those are the best five guys we got out there.
19:20
Speaker 14: If we had, you know, another group, we would certainly
19:24
Speaker 14: play them as well. So I listen, everybody you know
19:27
Speaker 14: is going to look at this and has their opinions,
19:30
Speaker 14: and I respect everybody's opinion. But there's no doubt that
19:35
Speaker 14: anytime you evaluate your football team, the first thing you're
19:38
Speaker 14: going to look for is physicality.
19:42
Speaker 17: Coach, you mentioned Indiana being number two, Vanderbilty being number ten.
19:46
Speaker 17: Does that really go to show how much anil in
19:48
Speaker 17: the portal really opens up opportunities for schools that usually
19:52
Speaker 17: aren't in those positions to get into those positions.
19:55
Speaker 14: Well, Texas Tech, right, I mean they had a tough loss,
19:57
Speaker 14: but they were a top ten team as well. Look,
20:00
Speaker 14: I don't think that I'm saying anything that's different than
20:03
Speaker 14: what's being talked about throughout the country. Look, it's a
20:06
Speaker 14: competitive scenario each and every week.
20:09
Speaker 15: Look at the SEC last.
20:10
Speaker 14: Week with any blowouts, I mean I don't know that
20:13
Speaker 14: there were. I mean Texas and Kentucky went to overtime.
20:18
Speaker 14: You know, Arkansas put up over forty points. Georgia Ole
20:25
Speaker 14: Miss was a track meet. You know, Auburn I think
20:29
Speaker 14: goes to overtime as well. I mean it's a tough week.
20:32
Speaker 14: It's competitive each and every week. There's no layups. And
20:36
Speaker 14: so why is that, Well, there's an investment and that
20:40
Speaker 14: investment piece is revenue sharing, and so you.
20:43
Speaker 15: Can build your roster through that.
20:46
Speaker 14: It's not just about why I want to go where
20:48
Speaker 14: the team always wins or that's got a great tradition.
20:51
Speaker 14: Teams that are building their tradition are building it with
20:55
Speaker 14: you know, certainly the ability to help their student athletes
20:58
Speaker 14: as well. So that's part of it. But you know, still,
21:01
Speaker 14: player development is important. Getting better each and every week
21:04
Speaker 14: and having the best version of your football team is
21:06
Speaker 14: important as well. It's I wouldn't stand up here and say, hey,
21:10
Speaker 14: you know, all these teams are good because they got money.
21:12
Speaker 14: That's that's disingenuous, right, But it does play into it, There's.
21:17
Speaker 15: No doubt about it. And I think we see that
21:19
Speaker 15: within the SEC.
21:22
Speaker 17: Coach from a self evaluation standpoint, What do you think
21:26
Speaker 17: the one thing or the first thing is that needs
21:28
Speaker 17: to be addressed or fixed to kind of get this
21:29
Speaker 17: thing turned around and win on Saturday and also moving.
21:31
Speaker 15: Forward, Well, I think we've been doing it.
21:34
Speaker 14: I mean, look, we want positive outcomes just like our
21:36
Speaker 14: fan base once, right, but our last nine quarters of
21:40
Speaker 14: offense have been trending to where we need to be right.
21:43
Speaker 14: We're running the football with effectiveness, you know, we're targeting
21:47
Speaker 14: the receivers that need to We got to get Aaron
21:49
Speaker 14: Anderson probably evolved.
21:50
Speaker 15: A little bit more now that he's healthy. He's a
21:53
Speaker 15: big play guy.
21:54
Speaker 14: And then defensively, we need to continue to play like
21:57
Speaker 14: we have played in the first half, and if we
22:00
Speaker 14: do that, we get both sides of the ball playing
22:02
Speaker 14: complimentary football. I think I've said it more than once
22:05
Speaker 14: that we haven't played that complimentary football where both sides
22:08
Speaker 14: are hitting on all cylinders.
22:10
Speaker 15: We just haven't hit that point yet.
22:12
Speaker 14: So we'll continue to prepare our football team work on
22:16
Speaker 14: the things that can help us get to that level.
22:20
Speaker 14: And it's an ongoing process that you know when every
22:23
Speaker 14: day is a self evaluation of what I'm doing, what
22:26
Speaker 14: our players are doing, what our coaches are doing, and
22:30
Speaker 14: we're taking all those hours to make sure we do that.
22:35
Speaker 18: Can you confirm multiple reports that Tyree Adams will be
22:38
Speaker 18: out for this week and if so, what do you
22:39
Speaker 18: do at left tackle?
22:40
Speaker 14: Yeah, he'll be out this week. DJ Chester will be
22:44
Speaker 14: over there. He's our most experienced guy. You know, we'll
22:49
Speaker 14: give carriers currents, some reps out there. As well, and
22:51
Speaker 14: see how that goes during the week.
22:55
Speaker 15: Coach on how y'all track everything? We don't come out
22:59
Speaker 15: of ten time out? Do you know what your success
23:01
Speaker 15: rate is on that next play? No, we don't track that.
23:04
Speaker 14: Okay, if you have it, I'll take the numbers.
23:12
Speaker 15: Okay.
23:14
Speaker 14: I just I don't have that analytic And it's something
23:17
Speaker 14: that I'm sure that if I ask our guys to
23:20
Speaker 14: dig deep, I can get you the answer.
23:24
Speaker 15: Coach.
23:24
Speaker 18: Right, while we're on the injuries with weeks Bernard Good
23:28
Speaker 18: and Jami Butler, how are they doing and what do
23:30
Speaker 18: you think they're status is?
23:30
Speaker 14: I think when we present our report, I think you'll
23:35
Speaker 14: get a clearer look at that. And I think that
23:39
Speaker 14: goes out tomorrow Wednesday, So we'll get a better report
23:42
Speaker 14: on that on Wednesday.
23:43
Speaker 18: And we noticed we haven't seen ash And Stamps or
23:46
Speaker 18: Jardan Gilbert on the field in quite quite a while.
23:49
Speaker 15: Is there anything going on with either?
23:52
Speaker 14: Well, we're trying to protect them, both of them. They
23:56
Speaker 14: both have played in three games, so if we can
23:59
Speaker 14: and fact protect their year, we would try to. This
24:03
Speaker 14: would be a week where they could play their fourth
24:05
Speaker 14: game and still, you know, maintain eligibility.
24:12
Speaker 19: Brian, you've talked about the fewer plays that you have.
24:16
Speaker 15: There's obviously a thin.
24:17
Speaker 19: Margin for error with this team on the triffence how
24:21
Speaker 19: much I guess then?
24:22
Speaker 20: Do you?
24:23
Speaker 19: Does it become important for you to really strip down
24:26
Speaker 19: what you're doing, who's calling it? The installation of those
24:29
Speaker 19: plays from the top down? Is that something that would
24:33
Speaker 19: benefit a team like this?
24:34
Speaker 15: Yeah, we started doing that about three weeks ago. I think.
24:40
Speaker 14: I think right after the Old Miss game, you know,
24:43
Speaker 14: I talked to coach Sloan and said, and Coach Hankton, look,
24:47
Speaker 14: we need to shorten this inventory and be better at
24:52
Speaker 14: the things that have been highly efficient force.
24:57
Speaker 15: So I think we went.
24:58
Speaker 14: Into that process about three weeks to go through the
25:01
Speaker 14: bye week, and I think it's proved to be effective
25:03
Speaker 14: for us. So yeah, I would agree with you, and
25:06
Speaker 14: I think we've shown that, you know, offensively, that that's
25:09
Speaker 14: where we're heading.
25:12
Speaker 18: There hasn't been a two loss SEC champion since I
25:15
Speaker 18: think LSU and O seven.
25:17
Speaker 15: Did your conversation about goals.
25:18
Speaker 18: For your team change now you've got your second conference loss?
25:22
Speaker 21: No?
25:23
Speaker 14: No, what we've talked about is the excitement of this
25:25
Speaker 14: opportunity that we have this week to go one and oh,
25:28
Speaker 14: and that one and oh is against the number three
25:30
Speaker 14: ranked team in the country. So look, this is about
25:33
Speaker 14: the history and tradition of LSU football. You get these
25:35
Speaker 14: matchups at home, they're they're they're exciting, and we're looking
25:41
Speaker 14: forward to just the focus on playing our best when
25:46
Speaker 14: our best is needed against a great opponent.
25:48
Speaker 15: In A and M in Tiger Stadium.
25:52
Speaker 18: Coach Charlon Berry had a good game, kind of season
25:55
Speaker 18: high and carries and yards, everything like that.
25:57
Speaker 15: What have you seen from him from a development standpoint
25:59
Speaker 15: through this.
25:59
Speaker 14: Fresh Yeah, I think he's coming along the way freshman,
26:03
Speaker 14: a true freshman to come along. I think he's earned
26:06
Speaker 14: more and more trust as the season has gone on.
26:09
Speaker 14: He has had more carries, has been involved in past situations,
26:13
Speaker 14: pass protection, has done a nice job there.
26:16
Speaker 15: So I think he's right on track.
26:18
Speaker 14: In terms of where he's going and influencing the football
26:22
Speaker 14: game as he did this past Saturday.
26:26
Speaker 1: That's Brian Kelly with the local media yesterday in Baton Rouge.
26:31
Speaker 3: The numbers are.
26:34
Speaker 1: Amazing in this series when you start looking. First of all,
26:38
Speaker 1: we think this is the first time A and M
26:40
Speaker 1: goes to Baton Rouge as a favorite since nineteen ninety four,
26:45
Speaker 1: which is the last time that they won in Baton Rouge.
26:49
Speaker 1: But those numbers are a little skewed because LSU ended
26:54
Speaker 1: the series with A and M went into the Big twelve.
26:58
Speaker 1: It gave him an excuse to do so because A
27:00
Speaker 1: and M won five or six games in a row
27:02
Speaker 1: in that series. You remember that for like forty two years,
27:09
Speaker 1: every time A and M played LSU, it was in
27:12
Speaker 1: Baton Rouge, so that excus the numbers a little bit
27:19
Speaker 1: as well. Now the aggis first win against LSU in
27:26
Speaker 1: the SEC was the seven overtime game in twenty eighteen.
27:33
Speaker 1: Since then, the home team has won every game. LSU
27:41
Speaker 1: had won six straight SEC games starting with the first
27:45
Speaker 1: game in twenty twelve, but with the seven overtime game
27:51
Speaker 1: that flipped thanks to home and home, and it's been
27:54
Speaker 1: home and home since twenty eighteen.
27:59
Speaker 3: It's it's been.
28:03
Speaker 1: The way you would think a series like this would
28:09
Speaker 1: supposed to would be, you know, supposed to go overall
28:14
Speaker 1: twenty one, thirty five, and three. But again, a lot
28:22
Speaker 1: of those losses came in Baton Rouge when that's the
28:26
Speaker 1: only place they were playing. A and M lost in
28:34
Speaker 1: thirteen fifteen seventeen, nineteen, twenty one, twenty three, and it
28:44
Speaker 1: has been a minute since the Aggies went to Baton.
28:48
Speaker 3: Rouge and won a football game. There have been other years.
28:52
Speaker 1: Going in there was confidence that that could happen, but
28:55
Speaker 1: it had not happened.
28:57
Speaker 3: Weird things have happened.
28:59
Speaker 1: Max Johnson hitting that corner route at the end of
29:06
Speaker 1: the game that was in twenty one. I believe that
29:11
Speaker 1: was crazy. Yeah, twenty seven to twenty four was the
29:17
Speaker 1: final there. So strange things have tended to happen there.
29:22
Speaker 1: Strange things have tended to happen at night there. It
29:25
Speaker 1: is a hard place to play, and this team is
29:31
Speaker 1: as equipped as any that has gone down there I
29:34
Speaker 1: think to play. LSU's obviously not as good as they
29:39
Speaker 1: have been, especially offensively, but they have a quarterback that
29:45
Speaker 1: I still think is going to play at the next level.
29:48
Speaker 1: They have a defense that has been very good that
29:51
Speaker 1: if they get a little bit of help, can be dangerous.
29:55
Speaker 1: So we'll see what happens Saturday night. In Death Valley,

Speaker 21: Welcome to the High School Report. I met Leaves and
33:04
Speaker 21: today we're going out to the players fin Center phone
33:06
Speaker 21: line to visit with the head volleyball coach for the
33:08
Speaker 21: Madisonville Mustangs, Carly Dice.
33:10
Speaker 3: How are you doing today?
33:11
Speaker 8: Good?
33:11
Speaker 12: How about yourself?
33:12
Speaker 3: I'm doing very good?
33:13
Speaker 21: Thank you so much for asking. Last season, your team
33:16
Speaker 21: went thirty seven and nine overall and was undefeated ten
33:19
Speaker 21: and zero in districts play. What factors do you think
33:21
Speaker 21: contributed most to that success and how did that lend
33:24
Speaker 21: to what you expected this season?
33:27
Speaker 8: I mean, last year we were very experienced, We had
33:30
Speaker 8: our offense was very well ryan. We had a senior
33:33
Speaker 8: setter last year who was one of our captains. She
33:37
Speaker 8: led our team. She took on that role. The girls
33:41
Speaker 8: had finally just bought in. I mean since day one,
33:43
Speaker 8: since I'd gotten here, they just finally bought into what
33:46
Speaker 8: we were trying to do, and they understood the assignment
33:48
Speaker 8: and just rolled with it. I mean they worked hard
33:51
Speaker 8: day in and day out, and I feel like in
33:54
Speaker 8: the long run, they realized that what I was telling
33:56
Speaker 8: them to do was going to pay off, and they
33:58
Speaker 8: would execute.
34:00
Speaker 21: This season, Madisonville's non district strengths the strength of the
34:05
Speaker 21: schedule and non district was more challenging. You guys had
34:08
Speaker 21: stronger opponents and more away matches. How did you plan
34:11
Speaker 21: non district matches to best prepare for district?
34:14
Speaker 8: You know, after last season, I know in round three,
34:18
Speaker 8: once we hit district play, we have one or two
34:21
Speaker 8: opponents that you know, are really competitive, but we have
34:24
Speaker 8: to have a tough preseason in order to prepare us
34:26
Speaker 8: for the postseason. And after last season's game, after our
34:31
Speaker 8: our loss against Gateway, I knew that we had district
34:34
Speaker 8: in our preseason schedule. Somehow, some way. We did have
34:38
Speaker 8: a lot of home games last year, so I knew
34:40
Speaker 8: that was going to put us on the road some
34:42
Speaker 8: this year. But honestly, I think our girls play a
34:45
Speaker 8: little bit better on the road than we do at home,
34:48
Speaker 8: So that that can always be a positive because a
34:50
Speaker 8: lot of teams, a lot of times they may not,
34:52
Speaker 8: but I think our girls play better on the road.
34:55
Speaker 8: I knew that we needed to strengthen that so that
34:57
Speaker 8: in the postseason that we had already seen some of
34:59
Speaker 8: those and I and I think the girls have adjusted
35:03
Speaker 8: very well. They and from day one, like I said,
35:05
Speaker 8: they they've come in and they've taken care of business.
35:07
Speaker 8: We've had, you know, to fill a couple of crucial
35:10
Speaker 8: spots on our offensive side of the ball and and
35:13
Speaker 8: I think they've done just that.
35:15
Speaker 21: Yeah, and you talked a little bit about this who
35:18
Speaker 21: graduated last year that left pretty big shoes to fill,
35:21
Speaker 21: and how is your current roster stepped up to fill
35:23
Speaker 21: those shoes?
35:24
Speaker 8: Absolutely. We have a senior named Curly Williamson. She was
35:27
Speaker 8: a four year varsity player. She set last year for me.
35:31
Speaker 8: We ran a five to one with her really the
35:33
Speaker 8: past two seasons with her. She's now playing at Temple College.
35:38
Speaker 8: And we knew when she left that it was going
35:40
Speaker 8: to be big shoes to fill. And now I have
35:43
Speaker 8: actually from the time that she left, I'd had a
35:45
Speaker 8: conversation with junior now junior number five, Presley Ringo, and
35:50
Speaker 8: told her that she was it was her, that that
35:52
Speaker 8: was her spot, that was her time to lead her team.
35:55
Speaker 8: And I think she has honestly stepped into that role
35:58
Speaker 8: very good. I know when Curly graduated last year, some
36:01
Speaker 8: of the kids around the school were saying, you know,
36:03
Speaker 8: kind of messing with the girls a little bit, like, oh, well,
36:05
Speaker 8: Carly's graduating and you all aren't going to be near as good,
36:08
Speaker 8: you know, da da da, kind of things like that.
36:10
Speaker 8: And I think Presley and the girls kind of took
36:12
Speaker 8: that as they took it to heart. And Presley's done
36:15
Speaker 8: a very good job of stepping in and working her
36:18
Speaker 8: tail off day in and day out to fill that role.
36:20
Speaker 8: And she's done just that and her teammates are acknowledging
36:24
Speaker 8: that as well.
36:25
Speaker 21: That's awesome. And given the changes in your team, how
36:28
Speaker 21: is this year's team's identity different from last year's where
36:30
Speaker 21: there it just be culture like style of play.
36:34
Speaker 8: You know. I think at the end of the day,
36:36
Speaker 8: the culture hasn't changed. Our expectations are still the same.
36:39
Speaker 8: I think they they come in and they work hard,
36:42
Speaker 8: and they have this grit and this determination that it's
36:46
Speaker 8: just kind of unmatchable at times. And when they set
36:49
Speaker 8: their mind to something that they can do it, they're
36:51
Speaker 8: gonna be able to do it. And they come in
36:53
Speaker 8: and and we you know, we game plan, we watched
36:56
Speaker 8: film and we have I think I think they've had
36:59
Speaker 8: to let me see, if I can word this straight way.
37:04
Speaker 8: There's then other people that have kind of more of
37:05
Speaker 8: been quiet leaders that if I kind of step into
37:08
Speaker 8: roles that they've had to step up to be a
37:10
Speaker 8: little bit more vocal, and we've had to rely on
37:12
Speaker 8: a couple more people. But I think everybody for the
37:15
Speaker 8: most part has stepped into those roles and done a
37:16
Speaker 8: great job on that aspect.
37:18
Speaker 21: That's great. And on the court, what is this year's
37:21
Speaker 21: team's biggest strengths and weaknesses?
37:24
Speaker 8: You know, I feel like our defense is probably one
37:26
Speaker 8: of our biggest strengths. We have a pretty solid defense.
37:30
Speaker 8: I have a senior lovererro Jillian Hardy, and senior defensive
37:34
Speaker 8: specialists Mollie Short. They hold down our defense for us.
37:38
Speaker 8: They're laying their bodies out for every single ball serviceive.
37:42
Speaker 8: Our service EVE is decent, but like I said, they're
37:46
Speaker 8: the girls are always looking to improve. I feel like,
37:49
Speaker 8: you know, we're strong offensively too. I mean, I feel
37:51
Speaker 8: like all the way around where there's I don't really
37:53
Speaker 8: feel like we have just a weak spot, and that's
37:57
Speaker 8: kind of you know, moving into this year, I've had
37:59
Speaker 8: you know, I feel like we were going to kind
38:00
Speaker 8: of struggle at first, But I mean the girls have
38:01
Speaker 8: just I mean they accept in and and accepted roles
38:04
Speaker 8: that they knew they were going to have to fill,
38:08
Speaker 8: and I think they've done a great job on that.
38:10
Speaker 8: So I mean, I would say probably our defense is
38:12
Speaker 8: probably our strength. You know, blocking. We have two medals
38:15
Speaker 8: that are strong blockers, big blockers, and we can get
38:18
Speaker 8: them involved and good things happened for us.
38:21
Speaker 15: That's great.
38:22
Speaker 21: And which teams this year so far have you struggled
38:24
Speaker 21: against the most and what have you learned from those
38:28
Speaker 21: matchups that you've brought into future games.
38:31
Speaker 8: You know, we played some tough opponents early on. We
38:34
Speaker 8: started in the New Way Really tournament and played a good,
38:38
Speaker 8: solid IOLA team. We lost to them to you know,
38:40
Speaker 8: twice early on. One time the first game was O
38:43
Speaker 8: two and then we lost to one. It's just kind
38:46
Speaker 8: of a mentality thing that we've you know with them,
38:49
Speaker 8: I mean that we know they're always going to be solid.
38:52
Speaker 8: And then we traveled to we traveled to White Oak
38:55
Speaker 8: for a tournament kind of see some other four A
38:57
Speaker 8: teams that were good. We'd be Central Hides, that's you know,
39:01
Speaker 8: top ten ranked teams, State runner up last year we
39:07
Speaker 8: played you know, six we played a couple of six
39:08
Speaker 8: A's roy City we competed with, and that was hopeful.
39:12
Speaker 8: I mean, I don't feel like there's any game that
39:14
Speaker 8: we just kind of struggled against as far as like
39:16
Speaker 8: playing teams that are just that much better than us.
39:19
Speaker 8: I mean, like I said, our girls have just done
39:21
Speaker 8: a really good job of holding their own and and
39:23
Speaker 8: rise into the challenge.
39:25
Speaker 21: Yeah, you eat Palestine on Tuesday in a close game.
39:28
Speaker 21: What went well and where do you think your team
39:30
Speaker 21: could have done better? And also is there anyone you'd
39:32
Speaker 21: like to highlight that you think surprise you or is
39:35
Speaker 21: worth noting from that game?
39:37
Speaker 8: Yeah, So Tuday and night was was was an absolutely
39:41
Speaker 8: insane game. I still feel like my journal and has
39:44
Speaker 8: been going all day from that game. You know, we
39:46
Speaker 8: go in and it's always tough for us to play
39:48
Speaker 8: in Palestine. The atmosphere fair and Palistine is always just
39:51
Speaker 8: it's different, you know. And they're a well coached team
39:54
Speaker 8: and they're gonna come to play, and they did just
39:57
Speaker 8: that last night. They game playing against us very we well,
40:01
Speaker 8: we're down O two and going into the third set,
40:05
Speaker 8: you know, came in for the reverse sleeve last night,
40:07
Speaker 8: and I think, you know, there was a lot of
40:08
Speaker 8: things last night that the girls had to overcome. There's
40:11
Speaker 8: a lot of adversity, a lot of things that were
40:13
Speaker 8: against them, but that kind of drove them. There was
40:18
Speaker 8: a ton of grit in the termination and it took
40:20
Speaker 8: all twelve on the roster all the way down last night.
40:23
Speaker 8: And you know, I think that kind of opened their
40:26
Speaker 8: eyes too, that when when they set their mind to
40:28
Speaker 8: something that they can do it, they didn't let down.
40:31
Speaker 8: They could have easily shut down, but you know, set three,
40:33
Speaker 8: we we'd come back and take care of business. That
40:36
Speaker 8: four was a close one and then we finished off
40:38
Speaker 8: pretty strong. And Set five, I would say Brianna Coleman
40:43
Speaker 8: is number one. She's a junior DS for us. She's
40:48
Speaker 8: not normally one of our starters, but she stays ready.
40:51
Speaker 8: When her name is called, she comes in. And last
40:53
Speaker 8: night was one of those nights we had to change
40:55
Speaker 8: n one to five to one, which put her in
40:58
Speaker 8: the game and she came in and lights out, you know,
41:02
Speaker 8: and ruby right in one of our middles. Once she
41:05
Speaker 8: finally started swinging, she was she was she was hot.
41:08
Speaker 8: So I think those two, those two key components and
41:11
Speaker 8: and again, like I said, Presley Ringo is just running
41:14
Speaker 8: our offense so solid and being the leader that we
41:18
Speaker 8: need for this team.
41:19
Speaker 21: Yeah, what are you expecting against Rusk this Friday? How
41:23
Speaker 21: do you think your teams will clash? And how are
41:25
Speaker 21: you using your last matchup to prepare for this one?
41:28
Speaker 8: You know, like I told the girls last night, like
41:31
Speaker 8: it's going to take all twelve of us from here
41:33
Speaker 8: on out, and it's got to be all twelve of
41:35
Speaker 8: us every single game. I think last night was a
41:38
Speaker 8: good was good momentum for us to take into Friday
41:42
Speaker 8: on the road. It's never anything. I mean, anybody in
41:44
Speaker 8: our district is not just somebody we got to overlook.
41:46
Speaker 8: I mean, I think there's some things that we'll we'll
41:49
Speaker 8: touch on and film sessions this week and and just
41:53
Speaker 8: move right on. And I think we're going to carry
41:54
Speaker 8: that energy into Friday, which I think is going to
41:56
Speaker 8: help us.
41:58
Speaker 21: And last two questions here kind of from a coaching perspective,
42:01
Speaker 21: how do you as a coach respond to the evolution
42:03
Speaker 21: of the game, whether it be like speed and athleticism
42:06
Speaker 21: or even the removal of calling double contacts by officials.
42:09
Speaker 21: How are you pushing your team alongside that evolution and
42:11
Speaker 21: continuing to learn.
42:13
Speaker 8: You know, I was kind of hesitant on that at
42:16
Speaker 8: first as a coach, just because I was a setter
42:18
Speaker 8: in high school myself, and I feel like they were
42:21
Speaker 8: trying to take the art of setting away on that.
42:24
Speaker 8: I feel like, you know, there's girls that work so
42:27
Speaker 8: hard that have been just the natural ability with their hands,
42:31
Speaker 8: and then there's girls that just don't. So I was
42:34
Speaker 8: kind of worried about it a little bit at first,
42:35
Speaker 8: and I feel like it's been as bad as I
42:37
Speaker 8: thought it was going to be. And I feel like
42:40
Speaker 8: it's kind of helped with us having to transition into
42:42
Speaker 8: another setter, somebody that, like I said, Presley, who's never
42:45
Speaker 8: set before. Yeah, she has pretty hands, But I feel
42:49
Speaker 8: like kind OF's helped with a little bit of confidence
42:51
Speaker 8: because she knows like, oh, if I do double here
42:53
Speaker 8: or there, you know, it's it doesn't doesn't kind of
42:55
Speaker 8: gets me. I mean, in the speed of the I
43:00
Speaker 8: feel like we play better and in tight competitive matches
43:04
Speaker 8: like high speed, fast paced games like that than we
43:08
Speaker 8: do against slower No I won't say nonchalant, but it's
43:12
Speaker 8: just slower pace games.
43:13
Speaker 16: Yeah.
43:15
Speaker 21: Okay, last question for you here, what do you want
43:18
Speaker 21: for your program looking forward to the next three to
43:20
Speaker 21: five years, and how to use a coach to find
43:22
Speaker 21: success on and off the court.
43:25
Speaker 8: You know, I think since they won this, you know,
43:28
Speaker 8: this is your three here in Madisonville, and the expectation
43:30
Speaker 8: has been it's extremely high. They know that, you know,
43:35
Speaker 8: obviously it's to be at the top, and they've they've
43:38
Speaker 8: bought into that. And I think the great and determination
43:40
Speaker 8: that they show just day in and day out is
43:42
Speaker 8: it's pretty incredible, you know. And the fact that I have,
43:46
Speaker 8: you know, people that continue to to want to learn.
43:49
Speaker 8: They're just so eager and what they want to do.
43:53
Speaker 8: And I have a ton of kids that play club ball,
43:54
Speaker 8: so they're playing year round and and not huge. I
43:58
Speaker 8: think we just we have to stay involved in our
44:01
Speaker 8: younger programs. We have a great little Figgers program that's
44:03
Speaker 8: run here in Madisonville for starting in I think second grade,
44:09
Speaker 8: second through fifth or sixth grade, and then you know,
44:12
Speaker 8: being involved in your junior high program is crucial too,
44:14
Speaker 8: I feel like. And so we do a good job
44:16
Speaker 8: of data I feel like here and just those instilling
44:20
Speaker 8: the culture and the expectations from a very young age
44:23
Speaker 8: and getting them to know that the ultimate goal is
44:27
Speaker 8: to be its top and nothing less.
44:30
Speaker 15: Very well put.
44:30
Speaker 21: Thank you so much for your time, mis dice, of course,
44:34
Speaker 21: good luck this Friday.
44:36
Speaker 8: Thank you, it's Ben.

46:30
Speaker 28: The Houston Texans filled short last night twenty seven to
46:33
Speaker 28: nineteen against Seattle, who regained their home field advantage. The
46:37
Speaker 28: Seahawks got off to a hot start with two touchdown
46:39
Speaker 28: drives in the first quarter, one of them only taking
46:42
Speaker 28: five plays in just over two and a half minutes.
46:44
Speaker 28: After forcing an interception in the second quarter, the Texan
46:47
Speaker 28: offense finally got going, able to generate a pair of
46:50
Speaker 28: field goals, making the score fourteen to six at the half.
46:53
Speaker 3: The game term.
46:54
Speaker 28: Slopping in the third chorus, both sides turned the ball over,
46:58
Speaker 28: but for Seattle their fumble would be extra costly.
47:01
Speaker 19: Feel it's been hard for this pass rush to get
47:03
Speaker 19: at Darnold.
47:03
Speaker 4: This time, he's got plenty.
47:04
Speaker 26: Of time, runs out of it, looses the ball to
47:07
Speaker 26: scravel and it's for cover to.
47:08
Speaker 8: The end zone.
47:09
Speaker 4: Touchdown Texans on the takeaway, it's Will Anderson.
47:13
Speaker 28: The score would become seventeen to twelve there, but that's
47:16
Speaker 28: as close as the Texans would get, as they were
47:18
Speaker 28: unable to score again until there was just two minutes left.
47:21
Speaker 28: The Texans now dropped to two and four on the
47:23

49:22
Speaker 31: Living Through.
49:23
Speaker 1: History, DAN i don't think young people have any idea
49:29
Speaker 1: of what the music business was like thirty five years,
49:33
Speaker 1: ago but explain to them the importance of getting songs
49:38
Speaker 1: on radio and then after that getting a video ON.
49:45
Speaker 4: Tv, yeah there was no and by the, Way, chip
49:51
Speaker 4: thanks for having. Me it's a it's a pleasure doing your.
49:55
Speaker 4: Show and the you, know the city situation back then was,
50:01
Speaker 4: that you, know there was no, internet you, know so
50:03
Speaker 4: none of that. Existed so you, know really the path
50:07
Speaker 4: to to the audience was through radio and you, know
50:11
Speaker 4: and multi. Formats for an artist Like, michael it was pop,
50:15
Speaker 4: radio it was the urban radio and even rock, radio
50:22
Speaker 4: and so it was essential to get on the, radio
50:26
Speaker 4: and so that you, know the the other, thing the
50:30
Speaker 4: other things that, existed you, know is not only did
50:34
Speaker 4: you need to get on the, radio but then you
50:36
Speaker 4: needed to get the physical, product you, know, albums vinyl
50:41
Speaker 4: CDs into the record stores at the same time you
50:44
Speaker 4: had the radio. Airplay you. Know so it's a little
50:47
Speaker 4: easier on a superstar Like Michael jackson because the retailers
50:52
Speaker 4: were wide open for, it and you, know radio was
50:55
Speaker 4: eager to to get a new hit from.
50:59
Speaker 1: Him but there is always this Idea you've got to
51:02
Speaker 1: keep him. Relevant you've got to you, know grow his.
51:06
Speaker 1: Audience the audience has to. Expand it's got to be for.
51:10
Speaker 1: Everybody that is not hard keeping and uh a performer
51:17
Speaker 1: relevant year to, year is?
51:18
Speaker 15: It?
51:20
Speaker 4: Absolutely you, know that's one of the hardest. Things and,
51:22
Speaker 4: eventually you, know you, know every veteran artist kind of
51:28
Speaker 4: runs their course with particularly with pop radio and and
51:33
Speaker 4: uh so you, know the the challenge is how long
51:37
Speaker 4: can you keep them? There you? Know, Yeah and you,
51:41
Speaker 4: know part of part of my role and product managing
51:44
Speaker 4: and doing campaigns is working with veteran. Artists you, KNOW
51:49
Speaker 4: i work With Luther vandros AND uh And shade And
51:53
Speaker 4: Gloria estefan And Stey lamper and you, know and so
51:57
Speaker 4: you know a great part of that was trying to
52:00
Speaker 4: do the things that kept them relevant so that radio
52:05
Speaker 4: was more inclined, to you, know to determine that they
52:11
Speaker 4: still were at the top of their.
52:13
Speaker 3: Game THEN mtv comes along AND i had no.
52:17
Speaker 1: Idea you talked about the video produced With Michael jordan
52:23
Speaker 1: for four hundred thousand dollars, correct.
52:27
Speaker 4: That's, right, yes and that was a. Bargain and that's
52:30
Speaker 4: a lot of. Money, yes it's a lot of. Money you,
52:35
Speaker 4: know music videos at that. Time you, know for say
52:38
Speaker 4: a new rock band or, whatever we might spend thirty fifty,
52:43
Speaker 4: thousand seventy five thousand to make a. Video but you,
52:47
Speaker 4: know when you have somebody Like michael and you know
52:51
Speaker 4: the production value you have to, have you're not going
52:55
Speaker 4: to shoot it in one. Day you, know you're going
52:58
