  Speaker 1: a bunch of stuff to the beach. You don't have
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: to do this or that, You eat when you want,
• 4:22

  Speaker 1: was fabulous and the weather was great too. I hope
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: you've had a good trip or two or three over
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: the summer. And now we get ready for high school football,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: college football, and the NFL. Now we're going to talk
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: a little college baseball here for a second. I grew
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: up on it, so did some of you. I you know,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: my first memories are nineteen eighty eighty one Bruce Kastoria,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: before skip Bertman had LSU tuned up, Ron Polk had
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: Mississippi State tuned up. And that's where, you know, in
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: the seventies the leftfield Lounge or whatever, foul pole to
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: foul pole was born and Polk got rolling and so on,
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: and then skip Bertman takes the job at LSU. Of course,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Mike Bianco was skip Bertman's catcher, along with Ben McDonald
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: being the pitcher on that team or teams. And Mike
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Bianco has been in Mississippi at Ole, miss what feels
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: like fifty years, and we feel like he's going to
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: outlive us all. And yeah, three generations from now, Mike
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Bianco will still be the head baseball coach at Ole
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Miss and Elon may be living you know, on Mars,
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: but Mike will be in Oxford at Swasey coaching baseball.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Former LSU catcher but Bertman was the architect of a dynasty.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: He took over LSU baseball in nineteen eighty four and
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: he turned it into a national powerhouse. And it's the
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: only dynasty in SEC baseball. He did it through you know,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: sheer will and guts and determination, and LSU was not
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: the LSU of today, the absolute total monster of a
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: top five athletic department, program and brand and everything that's
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: happened to them in the last twenty five years since
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: Sabing set foot on campus and all the great players
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: that they put in the NFL and well even NBA,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: but MLB two and so he was the architect with
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: national titles in nineteen ninety one, ninety three, ninety six,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: ninety seven, In two thousand eleven College World Series appearances,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: he was eight hundred and seventy and three thirty yeah,
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: and a winning percentage in Omaha that's still the best
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: in NCAA tournament history. He is a legend. He had
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: no budget nineteen eighty four, eighty six, eighty eight, ninety
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: ninety two, ninety four. We're gonna drop some of this
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: audio coming up. It's pretty funny. He had a hell
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: of a win about him, super smart, believed in self actualization.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: He believed that if you visualized it, talked about it,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: manifested it, then you got there. He talked about it
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: all the time. That's all he talked. We're here to
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: win national championships. We're here to go to Omahall. We're
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: here to go to Omahall and win games. We are
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: the out of Bound show ESPN one oh five nine
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: of the Zone. We're brought to you by Farm Bureau Insurance.
• 7:22

• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Insurance agent. Go with the home team, as Jake Mangham
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: likes to tell us, so he basically he took He
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: knew he was a promoter too, okay, and Bertman understood
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: the marketing side of it and how important it was.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: And then he went from dugout to athletic director which
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: was crazy and really did a good job there. He
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: was a builder of LSU baseball and along with Saban
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: on the reboot LSU Athletics in the modern era. Is
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: that fair? And so when you know jo Deine Senior
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: made the higher but Bertman literally five minutes later or
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: something was the flag director and from there they really connected.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: Bertman multi you know, national championships, Saban, you know the drill.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: And it's too many players to list. For as far
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: as Major League Baseball, we all know Ben McDonald, Todd Walker,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: among many many others, and Jay Johnson is the current coach.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: But uh, Bertman is the legend of college baseball. Okay
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: he is, and he won a ton of championships and
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: you felt I remember in the eighties watching LSU when
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: they started to get you know, when they started to
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: get rolling. But by the nineties you knew who the
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: who the beast was. When they would come into your
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: place or you went down to alex Box, you knew
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: they were on another level. They were trained on another level.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: The whole thing and their whole deal was winning championships.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: And and Bertman knocked down five of them. Yeah, and
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: since then, what manary won one and Jay one two.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: So post Bertman Manary with one and Jay with two,
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: that's eight since Bertman took over eight national championships. That's
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: pretty damn good. We've got some audio for you this morning.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: We'd love to hear if you have a Burtman story
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: or if you'd like to share some thoughts on this,
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: we'd love to hear from you. Skip. Bertman, legendary LSU
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: baseball coach passes away. One of the biggest winners in
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: the history of North American sports, one of the biggest,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: which makes him one of the biggest in the SEC
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: up there with Paul Bear Bryant, Pat Summit, Nick Saban,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: you know, among others okay, and and Don Staley and
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: others that have knocked down a bunch of championships. But
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: this is Bertman. I will start with Bertman, the legend.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Here we go.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: And uh boyd I get yelled at. They can be
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: pretty nasty.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: What would they say? What would they say mean to
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: a nice guy like you?
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Well, one of the things, like I'm walking out well here,
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: one of the things.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: Was you want to name the school?
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Well, in this case, I have to. Okay, I go
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: down two lane and this is a long time ago,
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: and Barry Manual was pitching, so it had to you know,
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: nineteen eighty six or eighty seven, and big crowds like
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: there always are wherever we go. Well, my daughter Lisa
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: is attending two lane at the time, so it's very
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: very difficult for her, and a coach at that time,
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: Joe Brocko was very nice and got some seats for
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: my wife because they were very hard on some other people,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: very hard to get seats. And I'm walking out the
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: change Manual in the ninth and I come back and
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: I hear all of these things, you know, Bertram, you idiot,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: and all of these things. But what catches my attention
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: is a big white poster board side and it says
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: even skips kid doesn't go to LSU. I thought that
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: was I thought it was pretty good that it's got
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: to give them that one. The only one I really
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: I hear a lot is when I walk to them out,
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: I hear whack quack. Well, I walk like a dunk lee.
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, people, people should walk a hell
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: of a lot better than you used to because you
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: got new hips. Hey for a guy, uh, some new hips.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: I mean a lot of people and for all the
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: brothers and sisters.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: Of the hip out there. No, I tell you what
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: people ask me all the time. When should I do it?
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: What should I do?
• 12:33
  Speaker 2: People got me pu I don't even know.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: We call all the time and h since that.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: You like that one.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: That's good, That's what.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: I mean anyway, all right, anyway, you had both hips replaced,
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: the first oneing around nineteen nineteen ninety one and then
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: again in nineteen ninety four. It's worked for me and
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: uh mag about three hundred thousand of those a year,
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: more knees being done.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: All right. So that was skip Bertman talking about his
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: child going to Tulane and Tulane giving him all unfiltered.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: You know what. Uh you know, even skip Burtman's kids
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: don't go to LSU. It's pretty good. Yeah, he he was.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: You know how we get some of the best quirky
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: personalities in baseball. There's so much downtime that you've got
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: to be a storyteller. You got to be playing pranks
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: or jokes or you know. And back then y'all know this,
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: and again it's overused for me. But in the russ
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: can rule sec if you remember in the eighties, damn
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: near walking the dugout in SEC baseball, I mean Bertman
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: would be there wasn't there were no new stadiums. It
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: was just a little fence. And Bertman could be out.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: I mean it could be it could be Rotten Polk,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: it could be Burtman. But Burtman was one to you know,
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: mix it up with the either his it could be
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: his fans or the opposing team fans. That was just Bertman.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: So I ran into him and start well, and I
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: don't remember what it's either ninety nine or two thousand,
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: and he's walking. Bertman was known for walking in whatever
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: town he was in. He was a walker. Right exercise,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: You're there for a couple of days, depending on the split, right.
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: You know, you used to have Friday doubleheader Saturday and
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: then and then somehow, you know, they were able to
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: break it up Friday Saturday Sunday three game series. Many
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: of y'all remember that that we didn't play three three
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: days over the weekend, and then they changed the format.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: But I run into Bertman, and I know who he is.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: And this is at a time believed or not, when
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: a lot of people don't. I've been y'all know this
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, I grew up on Mississippi State baseball and
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: the he's Wendy and I were finishing grad school and
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: he's walking through this little neighborhood where we were, where
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: we lived, and I'm talking to I'm assuming they were
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: at the holiday in Express because we were a Rocks
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: throw there on Highway twelfth in Starville, So it's kind
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: of nestled back and there's a neighborhood behind it. And
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: I run into him and start talking. He can't believe
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: that I recognize him. Well, games weren't on TV in
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: nineteen nine, you know, and again while college baseball was
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: exploding a little bit, I mean a little bit, it
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: really didn't explode until a good decade or so later
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: as far as the stadiums, the investment, and then of
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: course now the last fives, I don't know how many
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: years you get every single Mississippi State O MISS game
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: on the stream, which now we see people's faces more,
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: you know, the drill, right, And I mean, can you
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: imagine if Jake Mangham would have played in nineteteen eighty seven,
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: or what if Raffie and Will would have played today
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: and you would have watched all fifty six games and
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: been able to see their face not just have to
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: go to Smith Wills or start Bull or wherever they
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: were playing. So that was like a big deal for me.
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: I thought I'd just met, you know, the second coming
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: when I saw Bertman. But he was the architect of
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: one of the greatest dynasties in all of collegiate athletics,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: right Bear Bryant, Woody Hayes, Pat Summit, Nick saban Gino
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: at Yukon Dawn at South Carolina. We could go on
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: and on, I think Oklahoma and Softball whatever. But Bertman
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: won five national titles in a short period of time
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: in the nineties slash with that last one in two thousand, right,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: which is incredible, and eleven College World Series appearances. What
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: you got there, just I needed to see it like
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: laid out the years that he wanted, yeah, to understand
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: the shortness of this. So ninety one to two thousand
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: and he won five and then he went to eleven
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: College World Series, which is I mean again, now, a
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: lot of that was the sixteen regionals. You had eight
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: sixteen regionals. Remember we didn't go to the super Regionals
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: till ninety nine, So prior to that it was just
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: eight regionals, six teams, and you played forever, double elimination,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: and you played and played and played and played and
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: played and then played some more. That was just the format.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: And then someone I don't even know who it was, decided, Hey,
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: why don't we go regionals? Pare them down to four
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: sixteen four fourteen regionals, and then we'll do sixteen supers
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: and then we'll do Omaha, which has which has been
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: awesome for college baseball. The super regionals have you on
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: the edge of your seat every single pitch, which is
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: a ton of fun for people that are in him
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: in June, How big of a transition was that? You know,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: I didn't he didn't think about it. Well, I knew
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: I was actually covering Pat McMahon at the time because
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: he had become the baseball coach. And Pat and I
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: hit it off, really liked him, really enjoyed covering him,
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: loved his intensity and fire, and he would have won well,
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: he was already winning big, but he would have won
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: big big had he not left Mississippi State to go
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: to Florida. But he was promised some things that were
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: not done. And so yeah, we knew it was big,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: but also understand Jackson that we weren't able to watch
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: the Super Regionals live for years, all in streaming. So
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: even though Mississippi State went to the first one or
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: the first year super Regionals were there, McMahon drove MSU
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: he had just gone to the College World Series in
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: the old format in ninety eight and then he went
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: to the Super Regionals in ninety nine. In two thousand
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: and one, before going to Florida, we knew it was different.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know if we knew how cool it was
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: going to be until streaming became prevalent and the access
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: all of us have now on our TVs and phones.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: So Supers in the beginning, you still had to travel
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: to go see Oh absolutely, okay, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: because I think I think McMahon played in Clemson and
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: Ohio State or cal State Fullerton, and you didn't get
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: the channals. No, you're not you're not getting those. You're
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: not getting that. Dang. Yeah. Do you remember like when
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: the first super you watched them TV was no. I
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: remember going to Supers. I guess we started to get
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: a little bit on TV, and I don't know, two
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: thousand and five, three, four, five, six, somewhere in there,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: but you didn't get what you get today, which is
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: every single one. I don't know when that started it
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: all runs together? Who I mean, I need to find
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: out who this guy was. It reinvented the college baseball postseason. Yeah,
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Faithful for him? Right, that's a lot
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: of baseball they were playing, no question, I mean double
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: elimination everybody in no way. A's as way too much
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: cycling in and out. Now the four team is still double,
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: but it's not near the same as having a six team,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: no double limb with eight regionals like it was in
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: the format prior to breaking it up in nineteen ninety nine. See,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: we got two different iterations or models right back to back.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: Ninety eight was the first BCS national championship where you
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: actually started to get a real national championship in college football,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: and then the next year was the first year of
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: breaking it out into sixteen regionals four teams, which then
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: drove you to the Soupers, which then drove you to Omaho.
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: What were they doing back in the nineties that made
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: it the want to change it all up evolving? Well,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: that's a good question. Usually committees in Indianapolis slash the
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: NCAA and conferences are pretty dinosaurian. So but people, this
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: my was cutting edge. Yeah, look out, and it's made
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: it more fun and then led to what we have today,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: which is awesome. Sports has never been better, The formats
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: and the models have never been better, and we can
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: consume wherever we are with the phone and or a
• 21:36
