- 1:26Speaker 4: That these schools are doing with that.

- 1:39Speaker 3: When you start talking track and field in high school
- 1:44Speaker 3: here in the state of Mississippi, well, you know you
- 1:46Speaker 3: go to the SEC, people want to say Arkansas, and
- 1:48Speaker 3: now when you talk track and field Mississippi, Clinton's gonna
- 1:50Speaker 3: be at the top of that list. Seventeen combined MHSA titles,
- 1:54Speaker 3: thirteen for the girls, four for the boys. You know,
- 1:58Speaker 3: the Lady Arrows captured their third teenth consecutive title last year,
- 2:03Speaker 3: dominating the highest classification. The boys won their fourth state
- 2:05Speaker 3: title in twenty twenty six. Congratulations to you guys as
- 2:09Speaker 3: you embark on another journey here in twenty seven or
- 2:11Speaker 3: twenty six, twenty seven, Oh yeah, we and we're excited
- 2:15Speaker 3: to get the school year started, we had a great
- 2:18Speaker 3: summer break for a lot of them.
- 2:19Speaker 6: I have a track have a summer track team, and
- 2:23Speaker 6: some of them ran summer with me. And we're about
- 2:25Speaker 6: to go to our this week. Matter of fact, I'm
- 2:29Speaker 6: leaving tomorrow to go to the Mornes Hour to run
- 2:31Speaker 6: it the AAU National Junior Olympics, and we're gonna see
- 2:34Speaker 6: what we can do there. And then we're coming back
- 2:36Speaker 6: and getting ready for the twenty seven outdoor season.
- 2:38Speaker 4: So let's start there in the summer.
- 2:40Speaker 3: You know, a lot of times when we think, you know,
- 2:44Speaker 3: club sports, obviously baseball comes to mind, with tournament ball, basketball,
- 2:47Speaker 3: the AAU softball, volleyball, track and field.
- 2:52Speaker 4: How big is that summer circuit.
- 2:54Speaker 6: The summer circuit is really big for majority of the nation.
- 2:58Speaker 6: A lot of kids run club track rather than running
- 3:01Speaker 6: school track. And it's about men, it's about getting just
- 3:05Speaker 6: getting your meats in in the summertime. It's warmer, you know,
- 3:08Speaker 6: we just happened happened to be in the south. We
- 3:11Speaker 6: have a lot of a lot more warmer climate during
- 3:14Speaker 6: the year. So those schools up north do not get
- 3:17Speaker 6: a lot of outdoor running until the summertime. So the
- 3:21Speaker 6: summertime is really their outdoor season. So we get down
- 3:24Speaker 6: here in the South, we get a little bit extra
- 3:25Speaker 6: running in to get our kids prepared for the ones
- 3:27Speaker 6: that want to go on to college and I don't compete.
- 3:30Speaker 3: So talk a little bit about the kids here at Clinton.
- 3:32Speaker 3: I would assume you know, it's like a lot of sports,
- 3:35Speaker 3: you know, if you're in of course, Clinton's one of those.
- 3:36Speaker 3: In football, if you have a really good football program,
- 3:39Speaker 3: the kids want to come out and play. Having a
- 3:41Speaker 3: track team like you guys have here, I would assume
- 3:44Speaker 3: you have kids that maybe if you were mediocre, maybe
- 3:47Speaker 3: wouldn't run track, but because it's Clinton track, they want
- 3:49Speaker 3: to come run.
- 3:50Speaker 4: For you guys and compete with you guys.
- 3:51Speaker 6: Yeah, we do a real good job with our feuer
- 3:55Speaker 6: program at the Clinton Junior High. We also coach those
- 3:57Speaker 6: kids as well. We do not have junior high coaches.
- 4:00Speaker 6: The high school coaches on my staff. We got five
- 4:01Speaker 6: of them. We all five coach seventh through twelfth grade,
- 4:04Speaker 6: so we know the kids from when they're thirteen fourteen
- 4:07Speaker 6: years old all the way through the high school.
- 4:09Speaker 5: So we're able to get them going young and have
- 4:12Speaker 5: them knowing what we want.
- 4:13Speaker 6: Them to do by the time they get to high school.
- 4:15Speaker 6: That's how we've been able to prolong what we've been doing,
- 4:18Speaker 6: especially on the girls side. You know, boys are a
- 4:21Speaker 6: little bit more different because they have a little bit
- 4:23Speaker 6: more choices to make during the school year in sports
- 4:26Speaker 6: to play. But majority of our team during the fall
- 4:29Speaker 6: training is the girls. We have probably seventy five percent
- 4:32Speaker 6: of our girls year round.
- 4:34Speaker 5: Wow.
- 4:35Speaker 3: Wow, So I'm assuming you guys like you said, a
- 4:39Speaker 3: lot of the guys may play football, or they may
- 4:41Speaker 3: play basketball, so I play baseball.
- 4:43Speaker 4: I could be wrong.
- 4:44Speaker 3: It sounds like the girls that run track here maybe
- 4:47Speaker 3: are just dedicated to track. Maybe if you play basketball
- 4:49Speaker 3: or something else, but majority.
- 4:51Speaker 5: Track, majority of them are track.
- 4:53Speaker 6: The boys side has start trickling up a little bit
- 4:57Speaker 6: of just being track as well. Track is one of
- 5:00Speaker 6: those sports that, just like baseball, it's technical. Some folks
- 5:05Speaker 6: think it will just go outside and we just run. No,
- 5:07Speaker 6: you have to know how to run.
- 5:08Speaker 5: We don't run.
- 5:09Speaker 6: We sprint. Distance runners have to get that foundation. Majority
- 5:12Speaker 6: of our distance runners run across country in the fall.
- 5:15Speaker 6: So once they get finished across country in the fall,
- 5:17Speaker 6: they get back with us in the winter time and
- 5:18Speaker 6: then we start giving them the speedwork to get them
- 5:20Speaker 6: a little the footwork a little faster. A lot of
- 5:23Speaker 6: our throwers are, especially on the boy's side, play football.
- 5:26Speaker 6: So once football is done, we'll let them do the winter,
- 5:30Speaker 6: the winter on weightlifting training and they'll come get some
- 5:33Speaker 6: throws in probably December some and then they're there travel
- 5:37Speaker 6: with us with indoor tracks. We have indoor from December
- 5:39Speaker 6: January with the track meet in Alabama. So it's one
- 5:42Speaker 6: of those you know, if you can't you can't play baseball,
- 5:46Speaker 6: you can't play softball, there's another spring sport you can't
- 5:48Speaker 6: do it, and track it's just one of those. Our
- 5:51Speaker 6: kids are just on that next level that they can't
- 5:55Speaker 6: split times. In other schools or smaller schools, you probably
- 5:58Speaker 6: can with those athletes, but on our team, if you
- 6:01Speaker 6: want to be the stood, you have to focus.
- 6:04Speaker 5: On track in the spring.
- 6:05Speaker 4: And of course you're talking about javelin shot put.
- 6:08Speaker 6: Yeah, so shot put shot put in this we don't
- 6:10Speaker 6: have javel Mississippi.
- 6:11Speaker 4: Okay, I did not know that. Really, do you wish
- 6:13Speaker 4: we had it here?
- 6:14Speaker 5: No?
- 6:15Speaker 6: We were most likely have a lot of tummy John
- 6:18Speaker 6: surgeryes going on.
- 6:19Speaker 4: I did not think really, yes, you know throwing it.
- 6:23Speaker 5: Throwing the shot and disc is very You can't just
- 6:25Speaker 5: be strong.
- 6:26Speaker 6: You know, we go and he get the strongest kid
- 6:27Speaker 6: in the school and he probably can't throw forty feet,
- 6:31Speaker 6: But when you get a kid and train him, he
- 6:33Speaker 6: can throw fifty. And it's one of those things you
- 6:35Speaker 6: have to be trained in every event in order to
- 6:39Speaker 6: be successful in it. You know, I try to tell
- 6:43Speaker 6: you younger coaches all the time. Start training them and
- 6:48Speaker 6: getting them where they need to be. Don't just throw
- 6:50Speaker 6: them out there and say I hope train them just
- 6:53Speaker 6: just like their football players, just like their baseball players,
- 6:55Speaker 6: just like their basketball You have to train the craft
- 6:57Speaker 6: in order to be successful.
- 6:59Speaker 3: Visiting with Jonathan Perkins, Clint High School track and field
- 7:02Speaker 3: and head coach for boys and girls the elite here
- 7:05Speaker 3: in Mississippi, seventeen overall straight state championships, looking for another
- 7:09Speaker 3: one here this season for our listeners and for me
- 7:12Speaker 3: because I don't know what's the most technically challenging event
- 7:17Speaker 3: or you know, part of track. You know, if you
- 7:19Speaker 3: get a guy, maybe he comes out, you know, and
- 7:21Speaker 3: you're looking for You're gonna put him on the four
- 7:24Speaker 3: by one hundred, or you're gonna put him on something else.
- 7:26Speaker 3: What's what's the most difficult to train.
- 7:28Speaker 6: The most difficult to train is pole vault. You think
- 7:34Speaker 6: about taking yourself running down somewhere with a pole in
- 7:39Speaker 6: your hand, having to place it in the ground and
- 7:42Speaker 6: then thrust yourseft over another bar. That is very, very
- 7:47Speaker 6: technical to do. We try to get girls that have
- 7:51Speaker 6: on gymnastic backgrounds, right, you know a lot of girls
- 7:53Speaker 6: do tumbling when they're younger cheerleaders. We try to find
- 7:58Speaker 6: fine girls that are not afraid to They're not afraid
- 8:02Speaker 6: of heights. Uh, find your find your boy. It just
- 8:04Speaker 6: is just crazy, It's just wow. He's just he doesn't
- 8:08Speaker 6: have to be super athletic. He doesn't even have to
- 8:09Speaker 6: be athletic at all. He just has to have the
- 8:11Speaker 6: wont to we have. Over the years we've had we've
- 8:15Speaker 6: picked some kids that would not play another sport, and
- 8:20Speaker 6: we're very successful in high school POVOT. Now to get
- 8:24Speaker 6: to the next level, you have to hit a certain height. Now,
- 8:27Speaker 6: we've had some of those prior to that. When I
- 8:29Speaker 6: got here, sixteen feet, fifteen feet. I think the best
- 8:32Speaker 6: since we've been here has been fourteen feet. But those
- 8:35Speaker 6: those kids that got fourteen, they would not have been
- 8:38Speaker 6: able to get fourteen if they went to another school.
- 8:40Speaker 6: So it's one of those we trained them that got them.
- 8:42Speaker 6: We got them as far as we could now to be.
- 8:45Speaker 6: You know, everybody had, everybody has a stood. You know
- 8:47Speaker 6: you can say, oh, I'm gonna take my fastest kid
- 8:49Speaker 6: in school. I'm gonna throw them in the one hundred,
- 8:51Speaker 6: I'm throw them in the two hundred, and we're just
- 8:53Speaker 6: gonna let them rip. Well, what if I take that
- 8:57Speaker 6: kid that is not as fast as your kid and
- 8:59Speaker 6: tach them to write mechanics on how to run and
- 9:03Speaker 6: they beat your kid and you're trying to figure out
- 9:05Speaker 6: why is my kid getting beat And he's the fast
- 9:07Speaker 6: kid out of every seen in my life because you
- 9:08Speaker 6: did not train him how to run correctly.
- 9:10Speaker 5: You just do them on the track and told them
- 9:11Speaker 5: to go run.
- 9:13Speaker 3: That is fascinating here. And you know you talked about
- 9:16Speaker 3: heights for a pole vaulter. As far as heights for
- 9:21Speaker 3: that guy or girl, I mean you want that guy
- 9:23Speaker 3: to be what I mean, how.
- 9:24Speaker 4: Tall, technically, h physical, physical heart, physical.
- 9:27Speaker 5: Heart, It doesn't matter.
- 9:28Speaker 6: We just want to be just want to be not
- 9:30Speaker 6: afraid to get on the pole and get out get
- 9:31Speaker 6: off the bruin.
- 9:32Speaker 4: So basically, somebody like you said's spearless. It can't just
- 9:34Speaker 4: be anybody.
- 9:35Speaker 6: Yeah, put like this, you can't be three hundred pounds.
- 9:38Speaker 6: Of course, I'm not gonna put a d Linman on
- 9:39Speaker 6: the pole, Okay, but you know, we've had him as
- 9:44Speaker 6: I'm five eight, so we've had him as short as
- 9:46Speaker 6: probably five to six, and we've had him as tall
- 9:49Speaker 6: as six one sixty two, So we've had we have
- 9:52Speaker 6: different variants.
- 9:53Speaker 5: We're not looking for.
- 9:54Speaker 6: A set size kid for any position or any event
- 9:59Speaker 6: that we do.
- 10:00Speaker 5: Now for shot put, shot.
- 10:03Speaker 6: Put for boys would probably be the one event that
- 10:07Speaker 6: we say, okay, we have to have a big kid
- 10:10Speaker 6: that is strong and it is explosive. So we're looking
- 10:13Speaker 6: for defensive line type football players that can just I
- 10:19Speaker 6: mean that first step they just explode real quick. Yeah,
- 10:22Speaker 6: And that's probably one of the ones that we're looking for.
- 10:24Speaker 6: But in any other position, any other event, hurdlers for girls,
- 10:30Speaker 6: I'll look for cheerleaders because they're flexible.
- 10:35Speaker 5: For boys.
- 10:35Speaker 6: For hurlers, if they play football, DB's good hips gotta
- 10:40Speaker 6: be you have to be flexible to go over to
- 10:41Speaker 6: the hurdles. So majority of our majority of our boy
- 10:44Speaker 6: hurdlers have been have played safety your corner for the
- 10:48Speaker 6: football team. But you know, sometimes I just get those
- 10:51Speaker 6: kids that, like I said, to specialize in track so
- 10:54Speaker 6: we have more time to work on the technical part
- 10:58Speaker 6: rather than them being physically ready already. We do a
- 11:02Speaker 6: great job with developing our junior high keys to high School.

- 12:56Speaker 9: isn't it, Yes, sir, it really is. It's been a
- 12:59Speaker 9: been a couple of days, but I think there's it's
- 13:03Speaker 9: pretty normal in the state of Mississippi. That's usually what
- 13:05Speaker 9: we get. It is there's a there's a break coming
- 13:07Speaker 9: in the weather, so we're looking forward to that.
- 13:09Speaker 4: Yeah, well, when is that break coming next week? What
- 13:11Speaker 4: we want to put like eighty.
- 13:12Speaker 9: No, No, she's not gonna be one hundred and fifteen.
- 13:16Speaker 4: There's no doubt. There is no doubt. Yeah, let's talk
- 13:18Speaker 4: a little bit about that, and not to pick a needle.
- 13:21Speaker 3: There was an article that came out in the well.
- 13:23Speaker 3: I don't even remember which out that it was. I
- 13:25Speaker 3: know I was on the news and everybody freaked out
- 13:28Speaker 3: about the article and the news report of hey, you know,
- 13:31Speaker 3: high school football Missippi can't play or practice if it's
- 13:34Speaker 3: ninety two degrees. I know, uh executive director Ricinus, who
- 13:37Speaker 3: you know, well, he addressed that said none, I's not right.
- 13:39Speaker 3: I almost speak for him, but just talking to other
- 13:40Speaker 3: coaches that hadn't met with him, I think there was
- 13:44Speaker 3: some confusion on that reporter about degrees versus wet Bob
- 13:48Speaker 3: is what it was, wasn't it?
- 13:49Speaker 5: Sure?
- 13:50Speaker 9: Yeah, I don't know the reporter. He may have been
- 13:52Speaker 9: from an article or something. Because we're not gonna be
- 13:55Speaker 9: undred ninety two for about three more months. Nobody would
- 13:58Speaker 9: practice if that was right on the on the degrees part. Uh.
- 14:01Speaker 9: The wet bub is something that we do follow through
- 14:04Speaker 9: the MHSA and the Smack Committee and uh, and that's
- 14:07Speaker 9: just number one is just to take care of your
- 14:09Speaker 9: student athletes anybody in general. You're talking about everybody thinks
- 14:13Speaker 9: about football, but you think about the band members that
- 14:15Speaker 9: go out there. Yeah, these band members are out there
- 14:17Speaker 9: for five hours, and uh, I hope they're acclimated to
- 14:21Speaker 9: the heat. And you know, I'm just very thankful that
- 14:23Speaker 9: we have something to go by in today's world for sure.
- 14:26Speaker 9: But but that's something we take very serious and we're
- 14:28Speaker 9: very thankful that we do have that in our association.
- 14:31Speaker 9: I'm not so sure what other people follow. I'd like
- 14:34Speaker 9: to find out. I'd like to see what you know,
- 14:37Speaker 9: you always want to learn from people. Absolutely, there's a
- 14:39Speaker 9: better way to do it. We'd like to look at that.
- 14:41Speaker 9: But the wet bub's very it's very informative for us for.
- 14:44Speaker 3: Sure, and for those that may not know just a
- 14:46Speaker 3: quick you know, kind of overview the wet ball I mean,
- 14:49Speaker 3: it's a it's a formula correct that's put together through
- 14:52Speaker 3: you know, wind, humidity kind of talk. Not to dive
- 14:56Speaker 3: off into the science of it, but you know, you
- 14:59Speaker 3: guys have that. You know, like obviously when you were coaching,
- 15:01Speaker 3: and even now coaches trainers that monitor that thing and
- 15:04Speaker 3: say yes you can go or no you cannot yes.
- 15:06Speaker 9: And it's very specific too. So you know, when you
- 15:08Speaker 9: get to about ninety one on the wet bulb globe,
- 15:12Speaker 9: it starts to kick it back to like you're maybe
- 15:15Speaker 9: in a zone three at that point. Zone three is
- 15:18Speaker 9: gonna be well, you can be outside for an hour,
- 15:20Speaker 9: but you can't have any protective equipment on. You can't
- 15:22Speaker 9: have helets on, shoulder pads, anything like that. And and
- 15:27Speaker 9: that's you know, it's step by step from when it
- 15:30Speaker 9: gets to ninety two, we shut it down, like you're
- 15:32Speaker 9: not supposed to be doing any kind of outdoor activity
- 15:35Speaker 9: with your athletes at that point. So it's it's very specific.
- 15:39Speaker 9: You know, it goes all the way down to zone ones,
- 15:42Speaker 9: eighty eighty one to whatever. I don't know, but you
- 15:45Speaker 9: start really focusing when it's about ninety when it starts
- 15:48Speaker 9: hitting that ninety mark, You're you're flirting with a disaster
- 15:52Speaker 9: with that. So that's all eyes on deck when that happens.
- 15:54Speaker 3: Jud Bonswall Athletics Director Here at Clinton High School Thursday
- 15:58Speaker 3: edition or program Clinton Ear a Day on your radio
- 16:00Speaker 3: to see Misissippi Sports Medicine Orthopedic Center. All right, so
- 16:02Speaker 3: campus looks great, the new track looks great, the field
- 16:05Speaker 3: looks good. Hear the chirri big fan of the new
- 16:08Speaker 3: LED lights going in. Those things are something, aren't they.
- 16:11Speaker 9: They are something. They're you know, I think they got
- 16:14Speaker 9: here yesterday. They'll put them in. They have a deadline.
- 16:17Speaker 9: I hope they meet that deadline. And looking yeah, we're
- 16:20Speaker 9: excited for it for sure. Because these lights were good,
- 16:23Speaker 9: these Ohiogia lights. Man, they would light up. You could
- 16:25Speaker 9: see any deer movement that was back there in those trees.
- 16:28Speaker 9: But when the LEDs come in, it kind of focuses
- 16:30Speaker 9: on the field and the playing service, which is really
- 16:32Speaker 9: cool and looking forward to that. Just a different vibe.
- 16:37Speaker 3: You know, we were talking to Jonathan Perkinson and your
- 16:40Speaker 3: track and field team. You know, seventeen championships between the
- 16:43Speaker 3: guys and the girls. We know the football team has
- 16:45Speaker 3: had success obviously with your leadership.
- 16:47Speaker 4: And now we'll.
- 16:47Speaker 3: Visit with Hammer Morgan here in about forty five minutes
- 16:51Speaker 3: about the football team for this year, but talk a
- 16:53Speaker 3: little bit about the success of Clinton. There is a
- 16:55Speaker 3: lot of athletic success and not necessarily even I mean
- 16:58Speaker 3: the on the field is there, but then academics, uh,
- 17:01Speaker 3: you know, moving young people through these programs and then
- 17:03Speaker 3: moving them out to you know, on the other side
- 17:05Speaker 3: of the side of the door.
- 17:06Speaker 9: Hey, that's that. There's number one in our book. And uh,
- 17:09Speaker 9: our teachers and administrators they do a great job with
- 17:11Speaker 9: with getting these kids ready and and you know, school
- 17:14Speaker 9: is hard, man, it really is in today's world. How
- 17:17Speaker 9: these kids learn and how these teachers prepare them. Like
- 17:20Speaker 9: they're way ahead of the curve when it comes to
- 17:22Speaker 9: getting out going into the first year of college, whether
- 17:25Speaker 9: it be junior college or four year whatever they want
- 17:27Speaker 9: to do. They're well, they're they're well versed in everything
- 17:30Speaker 9: you have the career and taking uh educational program here
- 17:34Speaker 9: there's thriving. They do an unbelievable job with that. Like
- 17:37Speaker 9: there's a culinary right here about four hundred feet from us.
- 17:42Speaker 9: Some of the best groceries you can eat like. They
- 17:44Speaker 9: do a superb job with it. So it's it's thriving. Man,
- 17:47Speaker 9: these these kids a year in the year out. Teachers
- 17:50Speaker 9: and kids do a great job academically.
- 17:52Speaker 10: UH.
- 17:53Speaker 9: And then on the other side athletically they put they
- 17:55Speaker 9: put together some runs.
- 17:56Speaker 3: You know, we were talking with well Nations UH. And
- 18:00Speaker 3: the second segment on hour number one about how high
- 18:03Speaker 3: schools uh and this is across the country, but your
- 18:05Speaker 3: biggest high schools in every state seven A obviously the
- 18:07Speaker 3: biggest classification here. You almost have to run these programs
- 18:11Speaker 3: like a small college.
- 18:12Speaker 9: Now.
- 18:13Speaker 3: I mean you look at UH sids athletic directors. I
- 18:16Speaker 3: mean you're the athletic director. Will's the SID.
- 18:19Speaker 9: UH.
- 18:20Speaker 3: You know your friends up in Starvel, Jay Hobson is
- 18:22Speaker 3: the athletic director. You've got a SID that came from
- 18:25Speaker 3: Jacksonville State. You're starting to see a lot of schools
- 18:28Speaker 3: move in that college model.
- 18:29Speaker 9: Yeah, absolutely, because there's so much time that you know,
- 18:32Speaker 9: you can sit here and you can walk those sidelines,
- 18:34Speaker 9: and you put all that time and effort in and
- 18:36Speaker 9: then you you throw on top of that, you've got
- 18:38Speaker 9: twenty six other sports that are just as important that
- 18:41Speaker 9: you have to put your energy into you can't do
- 18:44Speaker 9: both of them at a at a high level, Okay,
- 18:48Speaker 9: And I think, you know, I think that's a big
- 18:49Speaker 9: thing if you start to see where there's more standalone
- 18:53Speaker 9: ads now because of the job is so big. It's
- 18:55Speaker 9: not about back in the day, Jay, when when when
- 18:58Speaker 9: you would cover it, you know, you be an athletic
- 19:00Speaker 9: director and you'd be on Twitter and you take a
- 19:02Speaker 9: picture of the final score of the scoreboard and that
- 19:04Speaker 9: was pretty much it, right. Yeah, So now it's so
- 19:07Speaker 9: much more driving that with the jumbo trode, with the ads,
- 19:10Speaker 9: with the sponsorships and having will Nations and Trinity Birds.
- 19:15Speaker 9: Those guys do a unbelievable job with putting the sports
- 19:18Speaker 9: out there.
- 19:19Speaker 3: For sure, when you look at the state of high
- 19:22Speaker 3: school football and now you're not coaching right now, but
- 19:24Speaker 3: I know you're definitely in tune. It seems like every year,
- 19:29Speaker 3: regardless of classification, you go back to the championship games
- 19:32Speaker 3: in Startbar last year one through seven, eight, every game
- 19:35Speaker 3: outside of one was a competitive four quarterball game. It
- 19:38Speaker 3: feels like we're getting better coaches. Not that we never
- 19:41Speaker 3: had good coaches, but it seems like more coaches, better coaches,
- 19:44Speaker 3: better players, here.
- 19:44Speaker 4: In the state.
- 19:45Speaker 9: Yeah, I think, yeah, I think all of the above.
- 19:47Speaker 9: I think your coaches are putting a lot into it.
- 19:50Speaker 9: There's a lot more resources that those guys can use.
- 19:52Speaker 9: And even the time that's put into it, it's more
- 19:55Speaker 9: than hey, we're gonna do three sets ten in the
- 19:57Speaker 9: weight room and you guys are good and just jump
- 19:58Speaker 9: out of here. So you know, the sports performance is
- 20:01Speaker 9: a big part of it. We do have a strength
- 20:03Speaker 9: coach that does all of our other sports. We've got
- 20:06Speaker 9: a coach that does the football team down here, and uh,
- 20:09Speaker 9: I think you know, football's we're in the South. Football
- 20:12Speaker 9: is cheing right, you know, it always has been, and
- 20:15Speaker 9: I think it will continue to be a very big part,
- 20:18Speaker 9: especially in the fall. And these coaches put a lot
- 20:22Speaker 9: of time into it. There's a lot of pressure to
- 20:23Speaker 9: it as well. So by goodness, you better be putting
- 20:26Speaker 9: the time into it.
- 20:27Speaker 3: Now, you're right, I mean, you think about and again,
- 20:29Speaker 3: everything I've say this it in nauseum. Everything rolls downhill
- 20:32Speaker 3: from the NFL to college to high school. That the
- 20:35Speaker 3: facilities war in college has moved to the high school side,
- 20:38Speaker 3: you know, from upgrades that's track and field to your
- 20:40Speaker 3: felt house and this and that. The pressure side, it's
- 20:43Speaker 3: now down in high school. I mean, we know, especially
- 20:46Speaker 3: with social media guys that you and I both know,
- 20:49Speaker 3: and you've been probably a part of some of that.
- 20:50Speaker 3: I mean, you have one year and people lose their
- 20:54Speaker 3: mind over it, even high school.
- 20:55Speaker 9: Oh yeah, absolutely, And you know you know that. You know,
- 20:58Speaker 9: people always ask we what do you all like in
- 21:00Speaker 9: football this year? Well that's a good question. You know,
- 21:03Speaker 9: I think we're gonna be really good. You know, I
- 21:05Speaker 9: can sit there and say, this will be the first
- 21:07Speaker 9: team Clinton's put on the field in a while that
- 21:09Speaker 9: looks like a seven eight football team. There's some size,
- 21:12Speaker 9: there's some length, there's some speed. You don't have your
- 21:17Speaker 9: quarterback looks the part right, you know what I'm saying.
- 21:19Speaker 9: So they're a good looking bunch that's gonna come out
- 21:23Speaker 9: of that field house on August the twenty eighth, that
- 21:26Speaker 9: Warren Central. So I'll be interested to see how they do.
- 21:29Speaker 9: But you know the real question is, you know, Harry
- 21:32Speaker 9: all gonna be great, But the bigger question is how's
- 21:34Speaker 9: everybody else gonna be? And that's what it always comes
- 21:37Speaker 9: down to. You know, you say, man, I feel good
- 21:39Speaker 9: about this year, but what about what they got coming back, right,
- 21:41Speaker 9: So there's another double edged sword when you look at
- 21:44Speaker 9: that stuff and and talk about it. And I never
- 21:47Speaker 9: really would talk a lot of noise when I coach
- 21:49Speaker 9: because I just believe in karma coming back. But right
- 21:52Speaker 9: now I can speak it. I'm like to beat the
- 21:54Speaker 9: helmets off of you, you know, and I just but
- 21:57Speaker 9: I do have fun with it, and these guys, our
- 21:59Speaker 9: coaches do a great so I'm very fortunate in that aspect.
- 22:02Speaker 3: Judd Boswell, athletics director, here at Clinton High School on

- 23:51Speaker 3: by my bookie dot Ag get in and play today
- 23:54Speaker 3: Rappu Lasparsa on your radio on Thursdays, so SPARSA.
- 23:57Speaker 4: Welcome in brother.
- 23:58Speaker 10: How you doing pretty good yourself?
- 24:01Speaker 4: I am doing well.
- 24:02Speaker 3: Are you paying attention to this back and forth between
- 24:05Speaker 3: the SEC and the Big Ten about who's better and
- 24:07Speaker 3: the SEC schedules and all this. Look, we've talked so much.
- 24:10Speaker 3: Everybody's ready for football and of course NFL camps. We'll
- 24:13Speaker 3: get some of that here in a bit. They're uh,
- 24:15Speaker 3: they're off and running. But man, it's talking season between
- 24:17Speaker 3: the SEC and Big Ten.
- 24:19Speaker 10: I mean it's all talk. I think, just thing to
- 24:22Speaker 10: just trying to maybe upstage the NFL and upstage uh
- 24:27Speaker 10: major League Baseball trade deadline. Oh, this is our time
- 24:30Speaker 10: to get college football in the limelight. I mean, I
- 24:33Speaker 10: think I mentioned your show. If if the SEC wants
- 24:35Speaker 10: to break up, bro break off, because no one's gonna
- 24:37Speaker 10: call you a national champion if you want, we won
- 24:40Speaker 10: the SEC championship. We're no one's gonna call you a
- 24:43Speaker 10: national champion. This is gonna call you an SEC champion.
- 24:46Speaker 10: If you want to break off and do your own thing. Uh,
- 24:49Speaker 10: we mean you're the best producer in the world. That
- 24:51Speaker 10: did you had we were discussing, I said, I think
- 24:54Speaker 10: I even said it on your show when NIL and
- 24:56Speaker 10: transfer Portal came upon, I said, it was gonna hurt
- 24:59Speaker 10: one conference and one conference only, and it's the SEC.
- 25:03Speaker 10: And so far it has because now you have all
- 25:05Speaker 10: these five stars coming to Alabama, Georgia, LSU all were
- 25:09Speaker 10: five stars. I put my baseball hat on him going
- 25:12Speaker 10: to this SEC school. They don't like their playing time,
- 25:15Speaker 10: they don't like their head coaching. What do they do
- 25:16Speaker 10: in their freshman year? They transfer out and go somewhere else.
- 25:20Speaker 10: Now someone else has a five star. It just goes
- 25:24Speaker 10: a full circle. So I think that's why it's an
- 25:27Speaker 10: evil playing field now for a lot of these schools,
- 25:30Speaker 10: including the Big Ten.
- 25:32Speaker 3: Now, I thank you know that, and you I remember
- 25:34Speaker 3: you did say that. Hey, did you honor and accept
- 25:37Speaker 3: Central Florida's claim to a national championship several years ago
- 25:40Speaker 3: in football?
- 25:42Speaker 1: No?
- 25:42Speaker 10: I mean, I'm sure if this happened.
- 25:43Speaker 1: Now.
- 25:44Speaker 10: I'm sure all these sportsbooks we needs were like, Okay,
- 25:47Speaker 10: here's your refund or here's your paydouck because some of
- 25:50Speaker 10: these people can't accept bets that they lost. I mean,
- 25:53Speaker 10: they don't understand that it's gambling. Oh but my guy
- 25:56Speaker 10: got hurt in the third innings. I think I should
- 25:58Speaker 10: get a refund for my prop. No, he this is
- 26:01Speaker 10: too bad, too sad, and that happens. I mean, guys
- 26:06Speaker 10: that every day, and I get emails and text messages
- 26:08Speaker 10: every day and it drives me nuts.
- 26:10Speaker 3: Raphael as far as on my bookie dot ag get
- 26:13Speaker 3: in and play today. All right, let's talk a little NFL.
- 26:18Speaker 4: Do you like camp? I mean, obviously we've got the
- 26:20Speaker 4: Hall of Fame game coming up next week.
- 26:22Speaker 5: Are you?
- 26:22Speaker 4: Are you energized for the NFL?
- 26:24Speaker 10: Now, I'm interested in a couple of divisions. I'm not.
- 26:29Speaker 10: So we'll talk about the the the worst division in football,
- 26:32Speaker 10: and that's the Saints Division NF. I know everyone's high
- 26:35Speaker 10: on Tyler Shuck. First of all, I can't believe this
- 26:37Speaker 10: guy doesn't have uh oyster contract, because what do you
- 26:42Speaker 10: do to get an oyster out? You shuck it out?
- 26:44Speaker 10: How does this guy not and have an oyster contract.
- 26:46Speaker 10: You should blow in my mind. But at the same time,
- 26:49Speaker 10: I'm a big believer of the sophomore slump. We saw
- 26:52Speaker 10: it with CJ. Stroug, we saw it with Caitlin Clark
- 26:55Speaker 10: into WNBA, we see it in baseball every time. I'm
- 26:59Speaker 10: a big believer in a sophomore slump. So if he
- 27:01Speaker 10: can avoid the sophomore slump, then I think the Staints
- 27:05Speaker 10: can be a two win better team than last year.
- 27:08Speaker 10: I left some of their offensive pieces that they added,
- 27:11Speaker 10: but if they can't avoid it, then I'm telling you
- 27:14Speaker 10: I think the Atlanta Falcons or the Minnesota Vikings do
- 27:18Speaker 10: something win a division because I'm a big believer of
- 27:21Speaker 10: a quarterback needs just to put on a different jersey
- 27:24Speaker 10: and Tua Tallabaloa and mini me Kyler Murray from Minnesota.
- 27:28Speaker 10: I think one of these two team guys have a
- 27:30Speaker 10: big breakout season because we saw it last year, or
- 27:32Speaker 10: Sam Donald.
- 27:33Speaker 4: Now Kyler Murray is interesting.
- 27:35Speaker 3: Looking here at some numbers, NFC North Detroit the favorite
- 27:39Speaker 3: at the shop. I'm looking at plus one sixty Vikings
- 27:42Speaker 3: worst five to one Bears Packer squeezed in between. But
- 27:45Speaker 3: I mean we're talking plus one sixty to five to one.
- 27:47Speaker 3: That's pretty pretty tight. That's gonna be a competitive division.
- 27:51Speaker 2: I think.
- 27:51Speaker 10: I think it's the best division in football. I think
- 27:53Speaker 10: the Lions take a small step backwards. I think the
- 27:56Speaker 10: Lions and the Bills I think they're super. All dreams
- 28:00Speaker 10: are over with and I like the Packers to win
- 28:03Speaker 10: a division, But boy do I really shop around. I
- 28:06Speaker 10: think getting the Minnesota Vikings I've seen anywhere up to
- 28:08Speaker 10: plus six fifty to win a division. If they can
- 28:11Speaker 10: get any quarterback play better than last year, I think
- 28:14Speaker 10: they can win that division. And one thing about about
- 28:16Speaker 10: JJ McCarthy, Now he has legitimate a guy breathing down
- 28:21Speaker 10: his back trying to steal the number one or whatever
- 28:23Speaker 10: he wants to be number one. And when that happens,
- 28:25Speaker 10: you usually play your best football. So I think whoever
- 28:28Speaker 10: wins that QB battle will be playing their best football
- 28:31Speaker 10: because they know their lease is short.
- 28:34Speaker 3: Let's look at a couple more of these divisions. We
- 28:36Speaker 3: know Philly is the leader just a bit over the Cowboys.
- 28:39Speaker 3: In the NFC East, the Commanders are right there at
- 28:41Speaker 3: five to one, Giants five and a half to one.
- 28:44Speaker 3: John Harball, can he turn this thing around quickly. Nyg.
- 28:49Speaker 10: I think he could turn around. I'm not saying they're
- 28:51Speaker 10: gonna win a division. It's all about health. I mean,
- 28:53Speaker 10: the Giants always have health issues. They We've seen it
- 28:56Speaker 10: last year. But I'm not saying go run to the table,
- 29:00Speaker 10: click on your phones and jump on the six to
- 29:02Speaker 10: ones that you can win the NFC East. But I
- 29:03Speaker 10: think they're gonna be competitive. I think the Commanders are
- 29:06Speaker 10: probably gonna have Harry to carry the basement as the
- 29:09Speaker 10: worst team in that division. I'm not sold on J. D. Daniels.
- 29:12Speaker 10: He still can't slide. They didn't do anything to improve
- 29:15Speaker 10: their team. The Commanders nothing on defense. So I think
- 29:19Speaker 10: the Giants leap frog the Commanders in the rankings of
- 29:23Speaker 10: that division and they're not in the basement.
- 29:26Speaker 4: Can the Ravens win the ANFC this year?
- 29:30Speaker 10: That said, the division's wide open. I mean the only
- 29:32Speaker 10: team I don't think that's gonna win is the Browns.
- 29:35Speaker 10: But I was checking today for most tickets written for MVP.
- 29:39Speaker 10: It's Justin Herbert and as the Bengals QB is Joe Burrow.
- 29:43Speaker 10: Them two have the most tickets written on them. I'm
- 29:46Speaker 10: not so that the Ravens. I think there's another team.
- 29:48Speaker 10: I think maybe their window has shut. I think it's
- 29:50Speaker 10: gonna be either Cincinnati or I can't believe I'm gonna
- 29:53Speaker 10: say this is Pittsburgh.
- 29:55Speaker 4: Pittsburgh.
- 29:56Speaker 10: Yeah, Pittsburgh.
- 29:57Speaker 5: Why not?
- 29:58Speaker 10: I mean every time I see I mean, I know
- 30:00Speaker 10: they have a new head coach, but they still always
- 30:02Speaker 10: have above five hundred record, and they're in a division
- 30:06Speaker 10: that they play the Browns twice.
- 30:08Speaker 3: Well, I mean, and Aaron Rodgers has been out eating
- 30:10Speaker 3: ice cream on camera like a politician with his teammates.
- 30:13Speaker 3: I mean, maybe he's maybe he's going to be, you know,
- 30:15Speaker 3: a team leader this year.
- 30:17Speaker 10: I don't know about team leader, but I mean for
- 30:20Speaker 10: the price, I'll take that price for the Pittsburgh Steelers to
- 30:23Speaker 10: win a division.
- 30:25Speaker 3: Let me ask you a couple more here while we
- 30:27Speaker 3: get Tom RAFIELSPARZOMBOOKI dot Ag'll get in and play today
- 30:31Speaker 3: Chiefs Chargers Broncos. Let's take the Raiders off the table.
- 30:35Speaker 3: It's a rebuild. They've already got, you know, a little
- 30:37Speaker 3: bit of drama there with the quarterback situation.
- 30:39Speaker 4: Who's the best out of those three?
- 30:43Speaker 10: It's gonna be a battle between Chargers in Broncos. I
- 30:45Speaker 10: still don't know the health of Patrick Mahomes. We're hearing
- 30:48Speaker 10: all the great stuff. He's at practice, he's running around,
- 30:51Speaker 10: but practice and game time are two totally different things.

- 32:59Speaker 3: here in hour number three as we move along, let
- 33:02Speaker 3: me see and get you some more notes, And so
- 33:05Speaker 3: we move along. Big ten Median days coming to an
- 33:08Speaker 3: end as a talking season continues to move. Let's go
- 33:12Speaker 3: back to d C and Ross Dellinger on this bill
- 33:17Speaker 3: that's probably going to die before it hits the floor
- 33:20Speaker 3: because the SEC and the Big ten just aren't they're
- 33:22Speaker 3: not forward, and I get it. I mean there's a
- 33:24Speaker 3: lot of unanswered questions. Senate staff member told Yeah Who
- 33:26Speaker 3: Sports a few hours ago that if the SEC and
- 33:28Speaker 3: Big ten choose today not to support the bill and
- 33:32Speaker 3: quote punt to September, that the leagues will have to
- 33:36Speaker 3: find new senators for this bill. It is an indication
- 33:39Speaker 3: that Senator Ted Cruise and Maria Cantwell and Eric Schmidt
- 33:42Speaker 3: are on their last gasp. Also, Big ten at SEC
- 33:45Speaker 3: officials who spoke to Yahoo still hold concerns over language
- 33:49Speaker 3: in the associated entity provision. They believe it does not
- 33:52Speaker 3: close the cap circumvention loophole of schools using mmrs and sponsorships.
- 33:59Speaker 3: So again and Ted Cruz is saying, hey, look we've
- 34:01Speaker 3: closed we've closed the loop, and you've got the SEC
- 34:05Speaker 3: and the Big ten saying, well, we don't even know
- 34:06Speaker 3: how you're going to close the loop.
- 34:07Speaker 4: So it's it's back and forth.
- 34:09Speaker 3: And for this bill to go, you've got to have
- 34:12Speaker 3: everybody pretty much in this thing just about everybody. And
- 34:15Speaker 3: with the SEC and the Big Ten punting on this thing,
- 34:19Speaker 3: it's it's not going to go. And a joint meeting
- 34:21Speaker 3: today Big ten presidents and athletic directors reviewed the revised
- 34:25Speaker 3: Protect College Sports Act, but did not cast a vote.
- 34:28Speaker 3: And again, starting at three today, an hour and forty
- 34:31Speaker 3: seven minutes ago, the SEC, Big Ten, twelve and ACC
- 34:34Speaker 3: we're gonna hold separate president calls around this whole deal.
- 34:40Speaker 3: All right, let me move forward here and get you
- 34:43Speaker 3: some other information that's out here over the athletic you know.
- 34:48Speaker 3: And I thought this was an interesting piece because we
- 34:50Speaker 3: don't ever think about it until you need it, or
- 34:53Speaker 3: if your quarterback's not any good, who's your starter? And
- 34:55Speaker 3: that's your backup quarterback, right the unherlded hero of your
- 35:00Speaker 3: football team as always your backup quarterback. Who are some
- 35:04Speaker 3: of the backup quarterbacks?
- 35:06Speaker 9: You know?
- 35:06Speaker 3: When you look at Oregon, they have a good situation
- 35:09Speaker 3: or at least on paper with Dante Moore, and then
- 35:11Speaker 3: they've got Dylan Royola, who again Rall is kind of
- 35:15Speaker 3: a journeyman of sorts. He hasn't played a whole lot,
- 35:18Speaker 3: but he played at Nebraska. He went to thirteen to
- 35:21Speaker 3: nine as a starter at Nebraska, sixty nine point one
- 35:23Speaker 3: percent of his passes were complete, forty eight hundred and
- 35:26Speaker 3: nineteen yards, thirty one touchdowns and seventeen picks. Excuse me,
- 35:30Speaker 3: he also lost four fumbles. Thirteen of his twenty one
- 35:34Speaker 3: turnovers came as a true freshman. But they feel like
- 35:37Speaker 3: Oregon does that they've got a really good quarterback. As
- 35:40Speaker 3: far as backup, the second best situation is probably at
- 35:44Speaker 3: Alabama around the country, where Keelon Russell is likely going
- 35:47Speaker 3: to be the starter. They have Austin Mack and this
- 35:50Speaker 3: will be Max's fourth season in Kaylyn de Bor's system,
- 35:53Speaker 3: dating back to his freshman year at Washington. Max served
- 35:56Speaker 3: as Ty Simpson's backup last season. Again, one of these
- 36:01Speaker 3: guys will start and the other one will sit. Twenty
- 36:04Speaker 3: four to thirty two for two hundred and twenty eight
- 36:05Speaker 3: yards and two touchdowns. Russell a former five star recruit
- 36:08Speaker 3: who is entering his second season, and tuescloes I had
- 36:11Speaker 3: a better spring game performance and completed twenty one to
- 36:14Speaker 3: thirty three for two forty and four touchdowns and one interception.
- 36:17Speaker 3: Also Arizona State Mickey Keane. They feel like Kenny Dillingham
- 36:23Speaker 3: has two quarterbacks that he can go to. Dillingham didn't
- 36:26Speaker 3: name a starter coming out of spring. Most believe Kentucky
- 36:29Speaker 3: transfer cutter Bowley will get the nod. If that's the case, Keen,
- 36:33Speaker 3: we'll get the Sun Devils. A very experienced quarterback. He's
- 36:37Speaker 3: twenty two to thirteen with stops at Central Florida, Presno State,
- 36:41Speaker 3: and Michigan. Sixty seven point eight percent completion percentage for
- 36:44Speaker 3: his career, sixty five touchdowns and twenty eight interceptions. The
- 36:49Speaker 3: athletic feels like Ole Miss has the fourth best backup situation,
- 36:53Speaker 3: you know, in the event that Trinidad Chambliss can't go
- 36:56Speaker 3: if he has an injury or something happens. Duce Night
- 37:00Speaker 3: Night chose Auburn over ole Miss, of course, out of
- 37:03Speaker 3: Mississippi George County, five star prospect class of twenty twenty five.
- 37:08Speaker 3: Transferred home. After you're on the planes. I started one
- 37:11Speaker 3: game as a freshman, throwing for two hundred and thirty
- 37:13Speaker 3: nine yards and rushing for one hundred and sixty two
- 37:18Speaker 3: with a six combined touchdowns and a sixty two to
- 37:20Speaker 3: seventeen went over Mercer six five two twenty five. Again
- 37:25Speaker 3: just a really good quarterback in Ole, miss because you
- 37:28Speaker 3: know you're talking about retaining players they're gonna pay, and
- 37:32Speaker 3: he will be the.
- 37:33Speaker 4: Guy next year in Oxford.
- 37:35Speaker 3: And so you gotta like the quarterback situation there at
- 37:37Speaker 3: all miss with Trinidad Schambliss and then Deuce Knight who
- 37:40Speaker 3: will back up, and then you know there may be
- 37:42Speaker 3: some situational football for him to play. You never know
- 37:45Speaker 3: that may be a package for him. And I don't
- 37:46Speaker 3: even like that term, the term package, but he he
- 37:50Speaker 3: is there and will be the guy next year. Tavian
- 37:52Speaker 3: Saint Clair, Ohio State, you could put Ohio State on
- 37:55Speaker 3: this list every year. Ohio State, even in the nil
- 37:59Speaker 3: transfer era, typically has had two three quarterbacks.
- 38:03Speaker 4: Two three quarterbacks.
- 38:06Speaker 3: Virginia has Eli Holstein Tony Elliott, who has done a
- 38:10Speaker 3: great job with Virginia. They played for the ACC Championship
- 38:13Speaker 3: last year. Confirmed at media days early this month for
- 38:16Speaker 3: the ACC Missouri transfer both Privy Lebile start and then Holstein,
- 38:20Speaker 3: a former four star quarterback who played one year at
- 38:23Speaker 3: Alabama and two at Pittsburgh. He went nine to five
- 38:27Speaker 3: as a starter at pitt sixty one point completion percentage,
- 38:30Speaker 3: thirty three nine yards, twenty nine touchdowns and thirteen interceptions
- 38:34Speaker 3: at Pitt not a not a big runner, I mean,
- 38:37Speaker 3: Privyle is going to be able to get up and
- 38:38Speaker 3: get get down, but a pocket passer. Keithon Henderson is
- 38:43Speaker 3: at Houston Houston uh And again, look, Texas Tech is
- 38:49Speaker 3: the favorite to win the Big Twelve BYU was the
- 38:53Speaker 3: media's pick to win the Big Twelve. So you got
- 38:55Speaker 3: those two that's going to battle it out, Cougar's Red Raiders.
- 38:59Speaker 3: But watch a few teams. Arizona State is one with
- 39:03Speaker 3: Kenny Dillingham. Then watch.
- 39:07Speaker 4: Oklahoma State with that whole reveal that they've got going on.
- 39:11Speaker 3: And then watch Houston. Houston was a ten win team
- 39:13Speaker 3: last year. That is a really solid football team over
- 39:17Speaker 3: there in Houston. Also, LSU, they have behind you know,
- 39:23Speaker 3: their quarterback there, Sam Levitt, who signed Longstreet, is a
- 39:28Speaker 3: young man that they feel really really lucky to have.
- 39:32Speaker 3: He you know, Lane Kiffen when he came in, made
- 39:34Speaker 3: sure to land some quality insurance at quarterback. Long Street,
- 39:38Speaker 3: a former five star prospect who spent one season at USC,
- 39:41Speaker 3: appears to be the heir apparent to Levitt. After appearing
- 39:45Speaker 3: in four games for the Trojans last year. Thirteen to fifteen,
- 39:47Speaker 3: one hundred and three yards and a touchdown. He also
- 39:49Speaker 3: rushed for seventy six and had two touchdowns on the ground.
- 39:53Speaker 3: The Athletics says, don't be surprised should something happen to
- 39:55Speaker 3: Levitt if another backup at LSU also gets on the field.
- 39:59Speaker 3: Kiff and All signed former Elon Star Landon Clark, who
- 40:03Speaker 3: made twelve starts last season as a red shirt freshman
- 40:06Speaker 3: and was named Coastal Athletic Association co Offensive Rookie of
- 40:09Speaker 3: the Year. And that's back to back years now that
- 40:13Speaker 3: Keivin wanted Ole Miss with Trinidad Chambliss out of Fair
- 40:15Speaker 3: State and then now at LSU where he's gone to
- 40:18Speaker 3: the FCS and taken Elon Starter Landon Clark, and we're
- 40:23Speaker 3: we're seeing a trend of that even before Trinidad chamblas
- 40:26Speaker 3: of FCS quarterbacks getting opportunities. Cam Ward is kind of
- 40:31Speaker 3: the you know, the poster child of that because of
- 40:33Speaker 3: the success he had coming out of Incarnate Words Washington
- 40:36Speaker 3: State to Miami to the NFL. Coaches are looking more
- 40:40Speaker 3: into the FCS. We are brought to you by BCI,
- 40:44Speaker 3: that's Business Communications Incorporated six or O one four two, seven,
- 40:47Speaker 3: four point eight five. Begin your protection plan today. We'll
