2:39
Speaker 1: thing that happened a little bit to Arch in this
2:40
Speaker 1: game can mount on you. You feel like we're not scoring,
2:44
Speaker 1: or I missed a read, or I missed a throw
2:46
Speaker 1: when in reality you look at the scoreboard it's still
2:49

5:13
Speaker 1: over the weekend. Jeff Monkin, the coach, says, Larry's heroic
5:18
Speaker 1: actions embodied everything we tried to instill in our cadet athletes, Courage, selflessness,
5:26
Speaker 1: a willingness to put themselves before others. In that critical moment,
5:30
Speaker 1: he didn't think of himself, only of helping another person
5:33
Speaker 1: in need. We're incredibly proud of Larry for the way

6:21

6:28
Speaker 1: eight to three in the ninth inning, Luis, I mean,
6:35
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Jose Altuve has homered in that game. The

Speaker 1: Rangers and Hunter Brown were shut out yesterday by the
6:43

6:55
Speaker 1: that down. And by the way, Rangers and Astros play

10:04
Speaker 2: you know, to fire off a little bit.
10:06
Speaker 8: So yeah, I think without damage, it would have been
10:08
Speaker 8: a little bit easier. But you know, when the eighteen.
10:11
Speaker 7: Hit me, it really did me a lot.
10:12
Speaker 12: Well love damage to the right rear and then certainly
10:14

10:17
Speaker 8: like nobody's watching, and you know, I feel like that's
10:19

15:08
Speaker 1: everything that's going on daily with the program.
15:13
Speaker 3: Okay.
15:14
Speaker 1: Earlier today, as he does every Monday of game week,
15:18
Speaker 1: Mike Elko meets with the media answers her questions. We
15:21
Speaker 1: carry that live here on the Zone at one thirty
15:25
Speaker 1: every Monday afternoon. We did so again today. Here is
15:31
Speaker 1: a little bit of what coach Elko had to say.
15:35
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, wrapping up the first one, I think
15:38
Speaker 9: it played out like a lot of openers played out.
15:41
Speaker 9: I think there were a lot of positives to draw from,
15:43
Speaker 9: a lot of things that we did well on both
15:46
Speaker 9: sides of the ball, and then obviously some areas that
15:49
Speaker 9: we need to fix and get cleaned up, you know, offensively,
15:52
Speaker 9: I think we have to look at our consistency of
15:54
Speaker 9: execution and efficiency. You know, we were able to make
15:56
Speaker 9: a lot of explosive plays that was great to see
16:00
Speaker 9: stalled out on some drives that we would like to
16:01
Speaker 9: have been able to keep going, you know. Defensively, I
16:04
Speaker 9: thought we did a good job in the passing game
16:06
Speaker 9: in the past. Defense certainly had that stretch in the
16:09
Speaker 9: second half where we really put our foot down and
16:11
Speaker 9: played the way we were supposed to.
16:13
Speaker 4: But obviously the.
16:14
Speaker 9: Rushing yards were way too many, and that's an area
16:18
Speaker 9: of concern that we've got to get fixed. And so
16:20
Speaker 9: I think we come out of Game one like you
16:21
Speaker 9: come out of a lot of game ones, excited that
16:24
Speaker 9: we got the win and excited with a lot of
16:26
Speaker 9: the things that we did well, but certainly knowing that
16:28
Speaker 9: growth is going to be real important for us to
16:30
Speaker 9: go out and continue to have success. From a players
16:34
Speaker 9: of the Week perspective, our Scout team players of the
16:37
Speaker 9: week on defense it was Lane Gurky, On offense it
16:41
Speaker 9: was Eli Morcos, and on special teams it was Luke Braydon,
16:44
Speaker 9: And so those guys all did a really good job
16:46
Speaker 9: for us. Offensive Lineman of the Week was Trey Zoon.
16:50
Speaker 9: Thought he was again really really consistent with what he
16:53
Speaker 9: did at tackle. Defensively, we went with Tyler Roon yetim
16:57
Speaker 9: I thought he was disruptive in a in a detackle sense.
17:01
Speaker 9: You know, sometimes those disruptions show up not necessarily on
17:04
Speaker 9: the stat sheet, but in some of the things that
17:06
Speaker 9: he does making plays and recreating.
17:08
Speaker 4: The line of scrimmage. I thought he did that well.
17:11
Speaker 9: And then our players of the week Offensively, it was
17:13
Speaker 9: Mario Kraver eight catches for one hundred and twenty two
17:16
Speaker 9: yards and two touchdowns. Certainly a nice introduction to Kyle
17:19
Speaker 9: Field and to our offense. Defensively, we went with Tory
17:23
Speaker 9: and York who had ten tackles in a TfL and
17:25
Speaker 9: really played well in the middle of our defense. And
17:28
Speaker 9: then on special teams we went with Casey Concepcion two
17:31
Speaker 9: punt returns averaging forty seven yards, obviously based on that
17:34
Speaker 9: eighty yard touchdown, and so that was kind of the
17:36
Speaker 9: spark that got things going.
17:38
Speaker 4: And so that was Week one.
17:40
Speaker 9: Now it's on to the next right and so excited
17:43
Speaker 9: to welcome Utah State in here. Aggie's versus Aggies those
17:46
Speaker 9: matchups are always interesting. It's funny how many times I've
17:49
Speaker 9: been in a non conference Aggies versus Aggie's matchup. It
17:51
Speaker 9: seems like we keep setting them up. You know, Bronco
17:54
Speaker 9: Mendenhall is there now as their head coach. Non Bronco
17:58
Speaker 9: for a long time following his career, not not as
18:01
Speaker 9: much personally, but just following his career, and obviously a
18:04
Speaker 9: tremendously successful.
18:05
Speaker 4: Head coach, did a great job at BYU.
18:08
Speaker 9: We coached against him when he was at UVA, when
18:10
Speaker 9: I was the defensive coordinator at Wake Forest, and so
18:12
Speaker 9: I've always kind of followed his program from so far.
18:14
Speaker 9: This will be the first time going against him. In
18:18
Speaker 9: terms of, you know, trying to put it all together.
18:20
Speaker 9: It's a little challenging.
18:21
Speaker 4: You know.
18:21
Speaker 9: It's they've played one game against the UTEB team they
18:24
Speaker 9: won last week.
18:25
Speaker 4: They want to know, but hard.
18:27
Speaker 9: To get a full feel for what we're kind of
18:29
Speaker 9: getting into. Defensively, they're a mix between three down and
18:32
Speaker 9: four down. Their coordinator, Nick Hal has some SEC experience,
18:35
Speaker 9: was at Vanderbilt with Clark Lee, who obviously I know
18:38
Speaker 9: very well, you know, was at UVA before that, and so,
18:43
Speaker 9: but trying to figure out what they're going to be
18:45
Speaker 9: this year at Utah State when they've only got one
18:47
Speaker 9: game against a wide open, ten personnel spread team is
18:50
Speaker 9: a little bit of a challenge, and so trying to
18:52
Speaker 9: piece together what that will look like, and we're hard
18:54
Speaker 9: at work at that. Offensively, you know, they're kind of
18:57
Speaker 9: more of a traditional pro style and so.
19:00
Speaker 4: We'll have a little bit better feel for that. They're
19:02
Speaker 4: led by.
19:03
Speaker 9: Quarterback Bryce and Barnes who we think is a really,
19:05
Speaker 9: really talented player, another really good group of four.
19:07
Speaker 4: Quarterback had a big, big week last week.
19:10
Speaker 9: Throwing and running the football, and so not that he's
19:13
Speaker 9: a dual threat, but he's a very athletic kid who's
19:15
Speaker 9: a very capable thrower. Two transfers at running back that
19:19
Speaker 9: really stand out, Javon Jacobs and Miles Davis from New Mexico.
19:23
Speaker 4: And from BYU. I think they are their two best
19:25
Speaker 4: skilled players.
19:26
Speaker 9: Really talented tight end brock Lane who has been really
19:29
Speaker 9: productive for them for the last few years. And so
19:31
Speaker 9: again some skilled players that stand out and will present challenges.
19:35
Speaker 9: And then obviously they'll come into this environment and certainly
19:37
Speaker 9: play their best football and be excited to be here.
19:39
Speaker 4: And so from that we'll kind of opening up to questions.
19:43
Speaker 13: Coach Rats, what was Dalton Brooks's absence and will be
19:48
Speaker 13: available for this next game?
19:50
Speaker 4: Yeah, he'll be available this week.
19:51
Speaker 13: And I know a little bad a left field, but
19:54
Speaker 13: you weren't in the area. But what do you remember
19:56
Speaker 13: about and it's twenty years from Hurri Kanye Katrina, what
19:58
Speaker 13: do you remember about that time and just being a
20:00
Speaker 13: coach when those things kind of go up going.
20:02
Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, certainly devastation, you know, and a lot
20:07
Speaker 9: of that, the images and the heartbreak. I was not
20:11
Speaker 9: in this area or region of the country and so
20:14
Speaker 9: it didn't personally touch me as much as some of
20:17
Speaker 9: the other things over the years have, but certainly remember
20:21
Speaker 9: those images and what it looked like, and you know,
20:24
Speaker 9: just just sad, sad thoughts for everybody who was displaced,
20:28
Speaker 9: dislodged and it certainly went through it and lost their
20:30
Speaker 9: life because of it all.
20:32
Speaker 10: The way in the back dun coach, after watching the tape,
20:35
Speaker 10: just how would you assess Marcel's comeand of the offense
20:38
Speaker 10: on Saturday.
20:38
Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought he did a nice job. I thought
20:40
Speaker 4: he was comfortable.
20:41
Speaker 9: I thought he was poised, you know, obviously, like there's
20:45
Speaker 9: never going to be a week where there's not things
20:46
Speaker 9: he's gonna wish he had back. That's just going to
20:49
Speaker 9: be the nature of playing quarterback. But I thought he
20:51
Speaker 9: delivered some really confident balls across the middle on time.
20:55
Speaker 9: You know, we talked a lot about that last year,
20:57
Speaker 9: how we never really felt like the rhythm and timing
20:59
Speaker 9: of the past in the game got right. I felt
21:02
Speaker 9: like we felt that a lot better Saturday. You know,
21:05
Speaker 9: just balls coming out of cuts in rhythm, on time
21:07
Speaker 9: catch and run opportunities.
21:10
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think all that stuff was good to see.
21:12
Speaker 9: Coach will stay in the back Tyler.
21:15
Speaker 11: Coach you mentioned kind of being a little bit familiar
21:17
Speaker 11: at least with ranklemenden Hall. How difficult I mean, he's
21:21
Speaker 11: coming in a new program with so many of their
21:23
Speaker 11: new transfers. How difficult is that preparing early in the season.
21:26
Speaker 11: And then what is it about his coaching style that
21:29
Speaker 11: you've kind of learned and or I guess expect to
21:33
Speaker 11: prepare for it?
21:34
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think I think I think these opening games
21:36
Speaker 9: are more and more challenging every year because between roster scheme,
21:41
Speaker 9: you just you don't have a great pulse or feel
21:44
Speaker 9: for what you're getting into. And so we've just kind
21:47
Speaker 9: of learned how to be ready to adjust and adapt.
21:51
Speaker 9: I think that's literally what it comes down to so
21:53
Speaker 9: much in these games. And Yeah, I think I think
21:56
Speaker 9: he's a tough, hard minded head coach, and I think
21:58
Speaker 9: his teams kind of show that there's a blue collar
22:00
Speaker 9: toughness about how they play. There's uh, they play extremely hard,
22:04
Speaker 9: they play extremely physical, you know, and they're very disciplined.
22:08
Speaker 13: Coach to the right one.
22:12
Speaker 17: Yeah, Mike, you know, go back and looking at it again. Yeah,
22:16
Speaker 17: there's some issues in run defense. But I was wondering
22:20
Speaker 17: how much encouragement is there. At the same time, I
22:22
Speaker 17: think it was like ninety percent of the places y'all
22:25
Speaker 17: had them held them to about two yards of carry.
22:28
Speaker 17: But it's just the four or five plays that made
22:30
Speaker 17: a big difference.
22:31
Speaker 4: Yeah, what I told the guys is.
22:33
Speaker 9: This, It's it's at some point we have to realize
22:37
Speaker 9: that that's really all that ever is is those four
22:40
Speaker 9: or five plays, and and the urgency to be correct
22:45
Speaker 9: and right every single snap is what differentiates you from
22:49
Speaker 9: being elite and average and bad on defense. And that's
22:53
Speaker 9: just this day and age, and that's how it works.
22:55
Speaker 9: And so regardless of who you play, regardless of what
22:59
Speaker 9: it looks like, we're really good when we do things
23:02
Speaker 9: the way we're capable of it, and we're really bad
23:04
Speaker 9: when we don't. And we've got to figure out again
23:08
Speaker 9: how to get the really good to be more consistent.
23:11
Speaker 10: Which so the left first, just a couple other personnel
23:16
Speaker 10: updates on Jordan Shaw and Tiger Riding.
23:18
Speaker 4: Yeah, so Tiger's back now healthy.
23:22
Speaker 9: Tiger got in a car crash this summer and so
23:25
Speaker 9: he's just kind of been dealing with the ill effects
23:27
Speaker 9: of that, and so he was actually cleared today. He's
23:30
Speaker 9: been practicing, but today was the first day he was
23:32
Speaker 9: like fully cleared, and so we would anticipate him being
23:34
Speaker 9: able to address this week and starting to work his way.
23:37
Speaker 4: Back into the rhythm.
23:39
Speaker 9: Shaw's dealing with a little bit of a lower body
23:41
Speaker 9: injury and so he's kind of day to day, game
23:44
Speaker 9: to game. We'll see if we can get him out
23:46
Speaker 9: there this week. We're hopeful, but he's just continuing to
23:49
Speaker 9: progress and get better.
23:50
Speaker 10: And then you've mentioned Mission twelve before. I'm just curious
23:53
Speaker 10: just the heart and intent behind that and just how
23:56
Speaker 10: you feel like that that program has gone since y'all
23:58
Speaker 10: have implemented it.
23:59
Speaker 4: Yeah.
24:00
Speaker 9: I think one of the things that we've tried to
24:03
Speaker 9: do here is build a complete program, and part of
24:06
Speaker 9: that is the way we're able to enhance our student
24:09
Speaker 9: athlete experience and the way we're able to enhance their lives.
24:12
Speaker 9: And I think that matters. And I've said this on
24:14
Speaker 9: multiple occasions, regardless of how many rules change, how much
24:19
Speaker 9: money gets involved in this, how much nil gets involved
24:22
Speaker 9: in this, at the end of the day, we're still
24:24
Speaker 9: taking an eighteen year old away from home for the
24:26
Speaker 9: first time in his life, and part of our job
24:29
Speaker 9: is to develop them into men.
24:31
Speaker 4: And that's kind of what Mission twelve is rooted in.
24:34
Speaker 9: It's our ability to help these young people grow and
24:37
Speaker 9: develop in ways outside of football. And so it's a
24:41
Speaker 9: program that means a lot to me. It's a program
24:43
Speaker 9: that we put together at Duke and developed. It's something
24:46
Speaker 9: that we immediately got started when we got here and
24:48
Speaker 9: got it off the ground. Finally this summer to the
24:50
Speaker 9: level we wanted it, and I think it'll only continue
24:53
Speaker 9: to grow as we move forward.
24:55
Speaker 13: Which will stay front.
24:57
Speaker 18: But you talked about some of the guys that were
24:58
Speaker 18: absent in week one. How'd you out of Week one?
25:00
Speaker 18: As far as the guys who did play moving into week.
25:02
Speaker 4: Two, Yeah, they're all fine.
25:06
Speaker 1: There was a little there was a little chuckle after
25:08
Speaker 1: that answer to Tony's question.
25:11
Speaker 3: They're all fine.
25:12
Speaker 1: So, yeah, you've got the early kickoff on on Saturday morning. Great,
25:23
Speaker 1: crowd Saturday night over one hundred and seven thousand, I
25:27
Speaker 1: think the sixth largest crowd. It was full, it was sro.
25:33
Speaker 1: I don't think it will be like that this Saturday.
25:37
Speaker 1: I mean they'll be a good crowd, don't get me wrong,
25:40
Speaker 1: but the eleven game against Utah State probably not as much.
25:47
Speaker 1: We're going to spend time with the writers coming up
25:50
Speaker 1: talking about the weekend that was in college football. It's
25:55
Speaker 1: not quite over. It ends this evening with TCU and
25:59
Speaker 1: North Carolina. The Bill Belichick era beginning in Chapel Hill.
26:06
Speaker 1: It will be My question is over under number of
26:13
Speaker 1: crowd shots of Belichick's girl friend the over under on that?
26:23
Speaker 1: And will she be on the sideline with him? I mean,
26:27
Speaker 1: she's been a practice, she's you know what I'm saying.
26:31
Speaker 1: Will she be on the sideline with Bill? And if so,
26:34
Speaker 1: will she be dressed appropriately or inappropriately? My guests will
26:41
Speaker 1: be inappropriately Whether in the stands a box?
26:45
Speaker 3: Do they have a box at the stadium in North Carolina?
26:47
Speaker 3: I don't know.
26:50
Speaker 1: That will be That will be the issue tonight for
26:53
Speaker 1: Belichick against the horn Frogs of TCU. That's a national
26:59
Speaker 1: TV game. T she use a slight favorite in that game.
27:03
Speaker 1: Some of the slight favorites did not do quite as
27:07
Speaker 1: well over the weekend. I thought it was a really
27:13
Speaker 1: good weekend of college football. It was a fun weekend
27:16
Speaker 1: of college football. Uh for for most of us, it
27:20
Speaker 1: wasn't a fun weekend for Alabama. We're gonna hear from
27:23
Speaker 1: Kayla to Boor coming up in just a minute. The
27:26
Speaker 1: very bad news is they just got run out of
27:29
Speaker 1: Dolt Campbell Stadium on Saturday. The good news is they
27:33
Speaker 1: played Louisiana Monroe on Saturday. The bad news is if
27:41
Speaker 1: they play like they played against Florida State, Louisiana Monroe
27:45
Speaker 1: could give them fits. But we will we will hear
27:49
Speaker 1: from the embattled Alabama coach. And by the way, I
27:53
Speaker 1: you don't have to remind me Alabama was my pick
27:57
Speaker 1: to win.
27:57
Speaker 3: The SEC.
27:59
Speaker 19: So well.
28:00
Speaker 3: In other words, all last week was horrible.
28:04
Speaker 1: Last Tuesday, I picked Alabama to win the SEC, and
28:10
Speaker 1: then over the weekend I just get creamed in the
28:13
Speaker 1: picking contests, both of them, the prog pole of the
28:17
Speaker 1: Eagle and my own. And would I like to rethink that, Yes,
28:25
Speaker 1: I would like to rethink that because I don't know
28:29
Speaker 1: what's going on down there. But it's not good. And
28:37
Speaker 1: I maintained that Kellen Deer bores a heck of a
28:39
Speaker 1: football coach. But you know what, not every coach is
28:44
Speaker 1: a great fit for every particular place. I don't know
28:49
Speaker 1: what the coaches that would be a fit following Nick
28:52
Speaker 1: Saban quite frankly, but the phrase is, you never want
28:59
Speaker 1: to follow a legend. You want to follow the guy
29:02
Speaker 1: who follows the legend. So and apparently I think Pau
29:09
Speaker 1: I heard this on Pau right before we went on
29:11
Speaker 1: the air. He has a seventy million dollar buyout. Did
29:15
Speaker 1: I hear that correctly? A seventy million dollar buyout?
29:23
Speaker 8: Whoo.
29:25
Speaker 1: Alabama doesn't have that kind of money. Believe it or not,
29:28
Speaker 1: they don't. They don't have a Phil Knight in Tuscaloosa.
29:33
Speaker 1: And now they're saying, hey, that's part of the issue.
29:36
Speaker 1: They don't have as many good players. They don't true
29:40
Speaker 1: have as many good players. I have some good players.
29:44
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's enough. We're gonna We're gonna
29:48
Speaker 1: find out it's only one game. Only one game. Tell
29:53
Speaker 1: that to the people in Tuscaloosa. Hey, my friends at

Speaker 4: Shell Time.
32:57
Speaker 1: What have you here on any edition? I'm looking at
33:02
Speaker 1: those famous honeydew drinks at the US Open. Talked to
33:07
Speaker 1: Scott Tribally about that last week. They're only twenty three dollars,
33:12
Speaker 1: but man, they're good. Apparently you can make them at
33:16
Speaker 1: home for less than a dollar. Probably.
33:23
Speaker 3: I'm just saying they look pretty good.
33:25
Speaker 1: This afternoon Labor Day in New York. Okay, we mentioned
33:30
Speaker 1: earlier it was not a great start for Kaitlin de
33:35
Speaker 1: Bore year two at Alabama. They went to Florida State
33:40
Speaker 1: and they got punked. They got beaten like a tied
33:45
Speaker 1: up goat on Saturday afternoon. Now, I think Florida State's
33:51
Speaker 1: pretty good. I think their quarterback's pretty good. I think
33:55
Speaker 1: their line of scrimmage is pretty good, which, by the way,
33:59
Speaker 1: all of all I'll watch this weekend.
34:03
Speaker 3: Line of scrimmage.
34:05
Speaker 1: Quarterback play. You make mistakes, you're gonna get beat. Right,
34:12
Speaker 1: you do stupid stuff, you're gonna get beat. You go
34:16
Speaker 1: half stepping into any game, you're gonna get beat. That's
34:19
Speaker 1: college football. And I tell you what else I've seen.
34:24
Speaker 1: There has been a consolidation of talent from the schools
34:29
Speaker 1: that are willing to spend money. Right, there is a
34:33
Speaker 1: growing and it's gonna get wider. Discrepancy and I'm gonna
34:37
Speaker 1: talk to the writers about this about the haves and
34:41
Speaker 1: the have not There's always been haves and haves have
34:44
Speaker 1: nots in college football, though there always will be. Okay,
34:48
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna get worse from what I've seen.
34:51
Speaker 1: All Right, let's hear from Kayland Boor today in Tuscaloosa.
34:57
Speaker 22: I guess first of all, I just want to send
34:59
Speaker 22: a con violence is out to Leroy Jordan's family, just
35:03
Speaker 22: uh with the passing over the weekend, and so just
35:07
Speaker 22: I know, huge part of this program and in the past.
35:09
Speaker 22: Here then, and I want to send from our from
35:13
Speaker 22: our coaching staff and our team our condolences, and then
35:16
Speaker 22: just hitting up the injury updates because I know you
35:18
Speaker 22: guys will ask on those. Uh Ja, Mary and Latham
35:22
Speaker 22: had a lower body injury. You know, we'll see how
35:25
Speaker 22: he progresses, will be day to day throughout this week.
35:29
Speaker 22: And then Isaiah Horton, you know, really proud of the
35:31
Speaker 22: way he fought through uh a lower body injury that
35:35
Speaker 22: he had, but just kept fighting through. Saturday was certainly limited,
35:40
Speaker 22: still feeling that a little bit, but he just continued
35:44
Speaker 22: to compete.
35:44
Speaker 7: And he's someone.
35:45
Speaker 22: That it doesn't surprise me that that's what we saw.
35:48
Speaker 22: But you know he'll be we expecting to be full
35:50
Speaker 22: go by the end of the week. We'll build up,
35:53
Speaker 22: you know, as he as he can tolerate here early on.
35:56
Speaker 22: But Ryan, we'll go through the concussion pro call throughout
36:00
Speaker 22: the week. You know, he'll have a day to day situation.
36:03
Speaker 22: Jade Roberts, I think everyone probably saw last week he
36:06
Speaker 22: was he was fully cleared. He's been out there on
36:09
Speaker 22: the practice field for some time now, but just for
36:12
Speaker 22: everyone to feel good and taking you know, full goal reps.
36:17
Speaker 7: He traveled.
36:18
Speaker 22: He could gone in the game if we needed to,
36:21
Speaker 22: but didn't, didn't have him play out there. Tim Keenan
36:27
Speaker 22: will be week to week, just kind of moving forward,
36:29
Speaker 22: but he'll still be out this week and then Jim
36:31
Speaker 22: Miller still week to week, coming along real nicely with
36:35
Speaker 22: his progression. So optimistic there here in the short, short future.
36:41
Speaker 7: Just start with that chase on the far left.
36:46
Speaker 23: I most if not all coaching staffs when they great
36:49
Speaker 23: individual players that they tracked loafs or instances of lack
36:53
Speaker 23: of effort. Did you see much of that when you
36:54
Speaker 23: looked at film on the defensive side of the ball.
36:58
Speaker 22: Yeah, there's you know, we're certainly disappointed enough. Some effort
37:03
Speaker 22: situations that happened. I think they came in different different ways,
37:08
Speaker 22: and some of it's just flat out gotta gotta gotta pursue,
37:12
Speaker 22: gotta get there, and uh, you know, it's it's it
37:17
Speaker 22: surprises you sometimes when it happens, especially with certain guys
37:21
Speaker 22: because of the effort that they put in day in
37:23
Speaker 22: and day out. But you know, and I think there
37:26
Speaker 22: were some other things that come across as you know,
37:30
Speaker 22: hesitancy as a way I kind of put it. I
37:32
Speaker 22: think after the game probably would follow that up and
37:35
Speaker 22: say that there was a couple of times where we
37:37
Speaker 22: just got to be quicker to get to a spot
37:40
Speaker 22: and do our job. You know, it might be setting
37:43
Speaker 22: an edge and just again hesitant with the communication kind
37:48
Speaker 22: of confirming or just you know, we believe and have
37:51
Speaker 22: that confidence in what we're doing. There really wasn't much
37:54
Speaker 22: it was really I think I spoke maybe that there
37:56
Speaker 22: was a couple of looks that we hadn't really practiced.
37:58
Speaker 7: I don't really feel like there was really that at all.
38:01
Speaker 22: After watching the film, I thought we did a good
38:03
Speaker 22: job preparing.
38:04
Speaker 7: I thought the guys had a great week.
38:06
Speaker 22: Uh now you just gotta you know, translate the numbers
38:09
Speaker 22: that you see on the football field that were in
38:11
Speaker 22: different jerseys, uh, and believe that that scheme, those x's
38:15
Speaker 22: and o's that you saw in your week of preparation
38:18
Speaker 22: is who it is in a Florida State uniform. And
38:22
Speaker 22: you know, just I think you saw it. As the
38:24
Speaker 22: second half went along, they started really kind of get
38:28
Speaker 22: into it. It was too late, you know. It just put
38:30
Speaker 22: us behind the eight ball. Now you gotta be perfect
38:33
Speaker 22: and everything you do and put us, you know, put
38:36
Speaker 22: us in a spot where we had to play catch
38:38
Speaker 22: up and.
38:38
Speaker 7: On the road. That's uh, that's certainly hard to do.
38:41
Speaker 22: And you know those guys were feeling it, uh there
38:43
Speaker 22: with Florida State. You know it's a chance for them.
38:45
Speaker 22: And you know, again together as a team, we got
38:49
Speaker 22: to find a way to overcome one.
38:52
Speaker 4: Side of the ball.
38:53
Speaker 22: When you need that drive for a touchdown, getting it
38:55
Speaker 22: done defensively, when you can get that big stop, getting
38:58
Speaker 22: it getting it taken care of right there, we intot
39:01
Speaker 22: our way back in the game.
39:03
Speaker 7: That's what you got to.
39:04
Speaker 22: Do when you have a seventeen point deficit. Again, we
39:06
Speaker 22: shouldn't get to that spot, but inch in our way.
39:10
Speaker 22: You know, something that we did better than I've felt
39:12
Speaker 22: in the offseason. We've talked about, you know, the Oklahoma
39:15
Speaker 22: game last year and how you got to try to
39:17
Speaker 22: get seven points and make it close and put some
39:19
Speaker 22: pressure on them. And we were right there, you know,
39:22
Speaker 22: twenty four to seventeen. Really we should have the ball
39:25
Speaker 22: third and eleven, you know, on defense with nine minutes
39:28
Speaker 22: to go, and you know just how far we had
39:31
Speaker 22: come in that probably previous ten to fifteen minutes of
39:35
Speaker 22: the game. You know, I felt I'd have felt like, man,
39:38
Speaker 22: this this thing's gonna happen, you know, and that there's
39:40
Speaker 22: a real belief and confidence that I think was building
39:42
Speaker 22: on the sideline. So just got to finish. You got
39:45
Speaker 22: to get the stops. It comes back to just that effort.
39:47
Speaker 22: But it has to happen from the very first play.
39:52
Speaker 23: You're kind of sticking with that when you say you're
39:54
Speaker 23: surprised by some of the lack of effort or intensity
39:57
Speaker 23: from the players, You're expecting that from what do you
40:00
Speaker 23: do to kind of combat that moving forward?
40:02
Speaker 22: Yeah, I mean these guys, these guys, they're great kids,
40:07
Speaker 22: they got high character, they believe, they want it bad,
40:11
Speaker 22: and so it's just showing them and you know a
40:18
Speaker 22: lot of times they already know, and you know, making
40:21
Speaker 22: sure that, you know, we continue to be intentional. That's
40:25
Speaker 22: a word that I use a lot, and it's gonna
40:27
Speaker 22: be something I use a lot more this week again,
40:31
Speaker 22: just be intentional on what we're trying to accomplish with
40:35
Speaker 22: quality reps, you know, and making sure that every rep
40:39
Speaker 22: is done at a high level, from you know, the
40:42
Speaker 22: effort to the execution, staying the vie side will.
40:46
Speaker 4: Go to bed.
40:48
Speaker 17: Yeah, before he got hurt, Ryan Wings working inside more
40:51
Speaker 17: a little bit.
40:52
Speaker 23: How would you assess what he did and where he
40:53
Speaker 23: could continue to improve once he gets back.
40:56
Speaker 22: Yeah, I think we'll continue to you know, work figure
41:00
Speaker 22: that out. You know, there's been so many bright moments
41:04
Speaker 22: with him inside. He never really got going, you know,
41:08
Speaker 22: in the game before getting hurt, and so you know,
41:12
Speaker 22: we'll continue to have to make sure we're moving him around.
41:16
Speaker 4: And you know.
41:17
Speaker 22: Last year he had had a great season, you know,
41:20
Speaker 22: and and a good foundation as far as us understanding
41:23
Speaker 22: what he can do on the outside. We really felt
41:26
Speaker 22: like what we'd again what we had seen, especially in
41:28
Speaker 22: the fall limited practices in the spring, but in the
41:31
Speaker 22: fall really liked how he could get matchups in our
41:35
Speaker 22: favor and really pose some problems. You know, you can
41:38
Speaker 22: get him from one side of the field to the other,
41:40
Speaker 22: you can get him deep, you can get him you know,
41:41
Speaker 22: out in the flat quick, and so there's a lot
41:43
Speaker 22: of different directions he can go, you know, you know,
41:47
Speaker 22: get the ball and even in the run game a
41:49
Speaker 22: little bit. You know, So we'll keep assessing that, you know,
41:53
Speaker 22: as we go through here, and you know, this week
41:55
Speaker 22: will be a little trickier again with him getting limited opportunities,
41:57
Speaker 22: but that's going to allow someone else to step up,
41:59
Speaker 22: and you know, it's kind of continue to figure out
42:01
Speaker 22: the dynamics of how we feel best with our receiving
42:04
Speaker 22: core and the people that should be out there in
42:06
Speaker 22: those spots.
42:07
Speaker 1: That's Kaylin de Boor. You're not gonna get screaming and
42:11
Speaker 1: cussing from Kaylin de Boor. I'm sure that's what Alabama
42:16
Speaker 1: fans want right now, right because that's what they had
42:20
Speaker 1: for fifteen years and it worked. But that didn't work
42:24
Speaker 1: for everybody. Uh, he's won a lot of games being
42:28
Speaker 1: Kaylin de Boor. Is he in the wrong spot? Maybe
42:35
Speaker 1: we'll see there was a you know, there's all kinds
42:41
Speaker 1: of things that come out after this. I saw a
42:43
Speaker 1: quote on the internet. Guy quoting a fellow coach is saying, man,
42:46
Speaker 1: I went up to visit him in Washington, and I'm
42:50
Speaker 1: thinking to myself, he has got it so good up here.
42:52
Speaker 3: There's no pressure up here.
42:56
Speaker 1: Well guess what there is now? Tomorrow, Jason and Jared
43:02
Speaker 1: are going to be here. They're filling in. I have
43:06
Speaker 1: to be out for a day. I will be back
43:08
Speaker 1: on Wednesday, but Jason and Jared are taking over tomorrow.
43:13
Speaker 1: We've got to the writer's round table coming up here
43:15
Speaker 1: in about twenty minutes, so you need to stay tuned
43:17
Speaker 1: for that. We're going to hear from Marcel Reid when

Speaker 12: The Houston Astros were unable to score yesterday as they
44:45
Speaker 12: lost to the Angels three to nothing. Oswald broz I
44:48
Speaker 12: got the scoring going in the fifth with the solo shot,
44:51
Speaker 12: and the Angels score two more in the eight. It
44:54
Speaker 12: was a great outing for Houston's Hunter Brown as he
44:57
Speaker 12: went six innings allowing just three hits in one run,
45:00
Speaker 12: but it was Jose Sritano who stole the show, going
45:03
Speaker 12: seven scoreless innings of one hit baseball striking out eight.
45:08
Speaker 12: The Astros have now lost two story games to the Angels,
45:11
Speaker 12: but still hold a two game lead over the Mariners
45:14
Speaker 12: in a four and a half game lead over the
45:16
Speaker 12: Rangers in the AOST. Today they'll go for the series
45:19
Speaker 12: split as Luis Garcia takes the Hill, and after the
45:22
Speaker 12: Angels they'll play the Yankees, followed by the Rangers. First
45:26

46:08
Speaker 1: us here on a Monday. The Astros did win this
46:13
Speaker 1: afternoon and fought for that split against those tough LA Angels,
46:20
Speaker 1: eight three to the final al twove with a two
46:23
Speaker 1: run homer and a single furious with a homer Luis
46:27
Speaker 1: Garcia gainst the win, Astros eight and three, two and
46:32
Speaker 1: a half up on Seattle, five up on the Rangers
46:37
Speaker 1: in the West. All right, as promised, let's hear from
46:41
Speaker 1: Aggie quarterback Marcel Reid and his postgame comments after the
46:46
Speaker 1: win Saturday night.
46:48
Speaker 25: What can you say about your two new receivers, Casey
46:51
Speaker 25: and Mario and what they were able to do for
46:53
Speaker 25: you tonight?
46:54
Speaker 26: The same thing I said over the summer. I mean,
46:56
Speaker 26: we'd have an explosive receiver room this season, and you
47:00
Speaker 26: know they showed that. I mean, I got them the
47:02
Speaker 26: ball probably five yards off the line of scrimmers and
47:04
Speaker 26: they turned them thirty forty yard plays. And that's what
47:07
Speaker 26: they can do when they get the ball. They' slippery
47:09
Speaker 26: and people got to make open field tackles and you
47:11
Speaker 26: know they couldn't do that tonight, and they showed and
47:14
Speaker 26: we kind of dominated on that part.
47:15
Speaker 27: We'll go second row on the left side to Alex.
47:17
Speaker 10: A lot of bubble screens with those guys. Just what
47:20
Speaker 10: is it about kind of their skill set and how
47:22
Speaker 10: you guys feel y'all are able to utilize that kind
47:24
Speaker 10: of route concept.
47:25
Speaker 4: Yeah.
47:25
Speaker 26: I mean those guys are fast, they're quick, they're twitchy,
47:28
Speaker 26: and you know, we talked about getting the ball week.
47:30
Speaker 26: You know, Coach Klin talked about, you know, we have
47:33
Speaker 26: bubbles the whole game, and you know, we wouldn't be
47:37
Speaker 26: mad if we threw ten and.
47:40
Speaker 7: Got to gain a five or to play.
47:42
Speaker 26: But you know, it seemed like that every bowle we
47:45
Speaker 26: threw was ten or more yards. So you know, we
47:48
Speaker 26: just kept doing it until they could stop it.
47:49
Speaker 7: And they couldn't.
47:50
Speaker 10: So how would you just assess the way you played,
47:53
Speaker 10: particularly the way you threw the ball.
47:58
Speaker 26: I think I did all right. You know there are
48:00
Speaker 26: some players I miss. Obviously Casey was wide open on
48:03
Speaker 26: one of those balls. I think the wind kind of
48:04
Speaker 26: caught it.
48:06
Speaker 7: Also.
48:06
Speaker 26: I was a little bit juiced, kind of let it fly,
48:08
Speaker 26: but kind of mad about that one. But I think
48:13
Speaker 26: I did pretty well overall. You know, it kind of
48:16
Speaker 26: took us some adjusting to do. They didn't come out
48:18
Speaker 26: and what we expected him to come out to, so,
48:21
Speaker 26: you know, first two drives were kind of adjusting to
48:23
Speaker 26: the coverages and what they were playing because that's not
48:26
Speaker 26: what they showed on film. We kind of had to
48:27
Speaker 26: change our game plan a little bit. But you know,
48:29
Speaker 26: once we got rolling, we got rolling, We'll.
48:31
Speaker 27: Go Fron on the right side to Travis and then Tony.
48:33
Speaker 13: Yet to that end, how difficult was it to kind
48:35
Speaker 13: of game plan for the coverages when they have ten
48:38
Speaker 13: new guys coming in like that?
48:40
Speaker 26: Yeah, I mean it's not too hard to game plan for,
48:44
Speaker 26: you know, the type of defense that they play when
48:45
Speaker 26: they have the same kind of coach, but you know,
48:48
Speaker 26: with new players and maybe they could try something different.
48:50
Speaker 26: But obviously we don't have film on that going into preparation. So,
48:54
Speaker 26: like I said, we just had to adjust in the
48:55
Speaker 26: middle of the game, and we did that, and once
48:58
Speaker 26: we did, you know, play started to happen for us.
49:01
Speaker 13: And how would you rate how just kind of the
49:02
Speaker 13: offense ticked along as a whole through the game.
49:05
Speaker 26: Yeah, I think, you know, the passing game, I think
49:08
Speaker 26: we did a lot better than we've done previously and
49:11
Speaker 26: what we was shown previously. Obviously in the run game,
49:14
Speaker 26: we got to get moving. I got to cut back
49:15
Speaker 26: on penalties, have way too many, and that put us
49:18
Speaker 26: in some third and long situations to where they could
49:20
Speaker 26: kind of attack with an uppercut and send pressure would
49:24
Speaker 26: cover two so you know, we just got to stop that,
49:27
Speaker 26: and then obviously we got to be better in the
49:29
Speaker 26: run game.
49:30
Speaker 27: We'll stay on that front road to Tony.
49:32
Speaker 18: Marcell, obviously receptions to eleven different guys, You guys are
49:35
Speaker 18: known for being a running team, but what is a
49:37
Speaker 18: passing performance like tonight in just how many different ways
49:40
Speaker 18: you guys are be able to tack them with the
49:41
Speaker 18: vertical game and how like how much does that help
49:43
Speaker 18: you guys moving forward?
49:45
Speaker 26: Yeah, I mean it obviously helps when they have so
49:46
Speaker 26: many guys they have to stop. I mean we have,
49:49
Speaker 26: you know, four great tight ends, you know, six great
49:52
Speaker 26: ride receivers, and obviously got four four great running backs.
49:55
Speaker 7: I can get the ball and check down too.
49:56
Speaker 26: So you know, they got a lot of people to cover,
49:59
Speaker 26: and you know, if they can't cover them all, then
50:01
Speaker 26: I'm gonna get the ball to him. If they can,
50:03
Speaker 26: then I'm gonna run myself. But uh, you know, they
50:05
Speaker 26: have to they have to choose, they have to play,
50:08
Speaker 26: and you know, we're kind of taking advantage of that.
50:10
Speaker 26: And I'm glad we got all these guys out of
50:12
Speaker 26: the portal. Uh, some guys can go for this team.
50:15
Speaker 26: And I'm really excited to just see, you know, how
50:17
Speaker 26: we progress throughout the season.
50:19
Speaker 27: We'll go front on the left side to Mark Marcel.
50:22
Speaker 25: You've seen what Mario and Casey can do all spring,
50:25
Speaker 25: you seen it all summer.
50:26
Speaker 20: But how much fun was to see those guys turn
50:28
Speaker 20: up field and go when it really mattered to cront
50:31
Speaker 20: of one hundred thousand people.
50:32
Speaker 7: I mean it was amazing.
50:33
Speaker 26: Uh just watching case on that punt, I mean I
50:37
Speaker 26: was like that kind of that.
50:39
Speaker 7: Gave us a spark we needed for the game. And
50:41
Speaker 7: you know it was just that Dude's crazy, that dude.
50:45
Speaker 26: I haven't seen a punt return like that since a
50:47
Speaker 26: nice Smith's been here, So you know, it's great watching
50:50
Speaker 26: him do that. And then Rio, like I said, you
50:52
Speaker 26: throw him the ball behind the line of scrimmage and
50:54
Speaker 26: he go turned into sixty yard game. I mean, you
50:57
Speaker 26: can't ask for anything better. So, uh, great expect for
51:00
Speaker 26: those guys. I mean, they're great players and I'm happy
51:01
Speaker 26: they're on my team.
51:03
Speaker 27: We'll go through drawing the left side.
51:06
Speaker 6: So what has made you most proud of your development
51:08
Speaker 6: for yourself as a player, From you know, last December
51:11
Speaker 6: against USC to now this season open and opener against UTSA.
51:16
Speaker 26: I mean I feel like just it's maybe most proud
51:18
Speaker 26: is probably my leadership. I mean, you know, I'm able
51:20
Speaker 26: to communicate with these.
51:21
Speaker 7: Guys a little bit better.
51:23
Speaker 26: Uh, you know, getting receivers in the film room with coaches,
51:26
Speaker 26: just trying to get that extra connection, build that connection
51:30
Speaker 26: with everybody, and uh, you know, find ways to you know,
51:33
Speaker 26: get the ball in their hands. Like I said, you know,
51:35
Speaker 26: we watch every week just to understand each other's minds,
51:39
Speaker 26: what we're thinking on each play. Uh, and then you know,
51:42
Speaker 26: gaining the trust everybody. I think everybody's come so close
51:46
Speaker 26: together since we've been in this offense for a whole year,
51:49
Speaker 26: and uh, you know, we've got a veteran O line, uh,
51:52
Speaker 26: some veteran running backs, and you know, it's just it's
51:55
Speaker 26: special to have a team that has been together for
51:57
Speaker 26: so long, h but in a system for so little,
52:01
Speaker 26: and you know, we're kind of just all bonding together,
52:04
Speaker 26: learning something new and having fun with it.
52:08
Speaker 27: We'll go back to TV row on the left side
52:09
Speaker 27: to Parker mentioned you haven't seen punt returns like that
52:12
Speaker 27: since and nyas almost two people that can do that with.
52:17
Speaker 16: Terry and Casey.
52:18
Speaker 10: How does that factor in the explosiveness of that return
52:23
Speaker 10: squad and just maybe what that brings to the table
52:25
Speaker 10: for this team.
52:26
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'll tell you what it brings to the table.
52:28
Speaker 7: Great field position.
52:30
Speaker 26: Terry almost took back two and he had one in
52:34
Speaker 26: the kickoff return too, So I mean, I mean great athletes.
52:38
Speaker 26: You know, if they have the ball in space, they
52:40
Speaker 26: can make something happen. And it's just amazing that I
52:42
Speaker 26: get to sit back and watch those guys work because
52:45
Speaker 26: you see it every day. You've seen it since the spring,
52:47
Speaker 26: in the summer and fall camp, and just really excited
52:51
Speaker 26: that we have such.
52:52
Speaker 7: A great group.
52:53
Speaker 27: We'll go front row on the right side to Carter.
52:56
Speaker 4: Marcel.
52:57
Speaker 28: You talked about Craver and Casey and even before where
53:00
Speaker 28: you get the ball to their hands. Just how much
53:01
Speaker 28: does it help speed up the timing and and maybe
53:04
Speaker 28: the spacing. Just how different it might feel now compared
53:07
Speaker 28: to maybe last season.
53:09
Speaker 7: Yeah, the separation is a lot different.
53:11
Speaker 26: You know, like I said, we watched film together and
53:13
Speaker 26: you know, getting in spaces, it's it's kind of, you know,
53:18
Speaker 26: just a timing thing for us now. And you know
53:21
Speaker 26: you've seen on that Digrell out through the ball. I
53:23
Speaker 26: didn't even know where case he was. I just knew
53:24
Speaker 26: where he was gonna be and you know, he made
53:26
Speaker 26: a great catch. We had an exposive to play on
53:27
Speaker 26: a third and long, and you know, they kept the
53:30
Speaker 26: drive going. But you know, things like that is what
53:33
Speaker 26: makes this group so special. And you know, like I said,
53:37
Speaker 26: I'm really excited just to see how we progress throughout
53:39
Speaker 26: the season.
53:40
Speaker 28: And you guys didn't get the run game quite going tonight.
53:43
Speaker 28: But just what are your kind of expectations going forward
53:46
Speaker 28: for that and maybe what kept you guys from really
53:48
Speaker 28: popping off from the run.
53:50
Speaker 26: Yeah, like I said, I mean, there was just there
53:52
Speaker 26: was a difference in what they were playing, and you
53:55
Speaker 26: know we didn't have kind of mini run prepared. They
54:00
Speaker 26: a little bit at a different front than we expected.
54:02
Speaker 26: But you know, we have to adjust to those things,
54:04
Speaker 26: and you know we didn't get quite adjusted.
54:06
Speaker 7: And also just the penalties.
54:08
Speaker 26: I mean, we had some good runs, but you know
54:10
Speaker 26: a lot of them were taken back because of holding calls.
54:13
Speaker 26: So you know that that takes back on yardage. It
54:15
Speaker 26: makes us look worse than you know what we were tonight,
54:18
Speaker 26: But we got to clean that up.
54:20
Speaker 1: That's Marcel Reid after the game on Saturday. Coming up,
54:26
