- 4:15Speaker 7: so I struggled to fall asleep last night after that,
- 4:19Speaker 7: So it's it was it was a rough one.
- 4:20Speaker 5: What time was the nap at? Between what hours?
- 4:24Speaker 4: It's like four thirty five, so like it was a
- 4:26Speaker 4: late nap.
- 4:27Speaker 5: So we didn't wake up to like six thirty seven. Yeah,
- 4:30Speaker 5: that's a rookie move. But did you wake up like
- 4:34Speaker 5: sweating though?
- 4:35Speaker 4: Yeah it was.
- 4:37Speaker 7: It's like a really deep.
- 4:38Speaker 5: That's a good that's a good one. That's a good nap.
- 4:41Speaker 6: Mark's all over you, like the deep sleep marks pillow
- 4:45Speaker 6: in Bedmark.
- 4:46Speaker 7: Oh lord, I had like the blanket like over my
- 4:49Speaker 7: eyes like black people.
- 4:50Speaker 4: I love sleeping like that.
- 4:53Speaker 5: I get that life. I get it. Uh.
- 4:55Speaker 3: When I was playing in Green Bay and I was
- 4:59Speaker 3: I had the weirdest, not a very healthy schedule. I
- 5:03Speaker 3: do have to, you know, go to work, get there
- 5:05Speaker 3: like six thirty six, six thirty something like that, and
- 5:08Speaker 3: then I'd come home. I'd get home at like four
- 5:10Speaker 3: thirty five.
- 5:12Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 5:12Speaker 3: I would take a nap from like five thirty or
- 5:15Speaker 3: six to eight at night like a dummy, because I
- 5:18Speaker 3: was like I was exhausted.
- 5:19Speaker 5: I just wanted to.
- 5:20Speaker 3: Get home and just sleep way in my head and
- 5:22Speaker 3: now what else are you gonna do? Right, it's Green Bay,
- 5:25Speaker 3: Like there's not a whole lot to go do. It's
- 5:27Speaker 3: like zero degrees outside, it's snowing. So I sat there,
- 5:31Speaker 3: put on the TV, take a nap, and I wouldn't
- 5:33Speaker 3: go to sleep till like one thirty two and then.
- 5:35Speaker 4: Wake up at five or whatever.
- 5:37Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, it wasn't that healthy, but that was my life.
- 5:41Speaker 4: Yeah, cool, Laundra, How was your day yesterday?
- 5:47Speaker 5: Yeah it was good? Did you okay?
- 5:49Speaker 3: So I know you like lsu versus you and O
- 5:53Speaker 3: okay cool?
- 5:54Speaker 5: Yeah, but we're on like one. We did win, which
- 5:59Speaker 5: is great, but did you now like we I watched
- 6:01Speaker 5: it at home, huh, but I couldn't get a lot
- 6:03Speaker 5: of like buy in from the family.
- 6:05Speaker 4: Yeah, they were not into it.
- 6:07Speaker 5: They saw who's Uno?
- 6:09Speaker 4: Hello, Yeah, they're right down the street.
- 6:12Speaker 5: Privateier Yeah is that right? Yeah, that mean private school years.
- 6:17Speaker 4: I think they're like pirates or something. Now, yeah, they're there.
- 6:20Speaker 5: It's like a private tier.
- 6:21Speaker 6: Yeah, it is privateer, but I think it's like a
- 6:25Speaker 6: pirate of some picture. But no, So I did not
- 6:31Speaker 6: watch because the game started I think at six thirty
- 6:34Speaker 6: last night, and I did like an evening pilates class
- 6:39Speaker 6: and then I went on a walk after that, so
- 6:41Speaker 6: I didn't.
- 6:42Speaker 4: I'll spend your time outside, you know.
- 6:43Speaker 5: Okay, Well we.
- 6:44Speaker 3: Need to tell the people, so we we've we like
- 6:47Speaker 3: to challenge our bodies around here. Yeah, in the in
- 6:50Speaker 3: the wolf pack in the boxhol Yeah, you did America
- 6:54Speaker 3: did America? Taylor, I don't know, Uh, Hierarchy, I don't
- 7:01Speaker 3: know what he does. He just like does radio all
- 7:03Speaker 3: day long, every single day. Now, tell the people what
- 7:06Speaker 3: you're doing. You're doing something that I think is harder
- 7:09Speaker 3: than anything.
- 7:11Speaker 5: Yeah, that we've done before.
- 7:12Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 7:13Speaker 6: The marathon was pretty brutal, but e is a half.
- 7:16Speaker 6: But I'm attempting to do seventy five hard right now.
- 7:21Speaker 6: I'm on day three.
- 7:22Speaker 3: And you said that, and I've heard about this, and
- 7:24Speaker 3: I've heard a lot of people doing it and talking
- 7:25Speaker 3: about it, and I was like always like, that's something
- 7:28Speaker 3: I have zero interest in doing.
- 7:30Speaker 4: I know, I don't really have I'm just gonna do
- 7:32Speaker 4: it just to see if I can.
- 7:34Speaker 3: Well. With that attitude, you just got to be like,
- 7:37Speaker 3: I know, I'm gonna do it, right, it's.
- 7:39Speaker 6: Gonna I mean, I think so far it hasn't been
- 7:41Speaker 6: that I mean it's only day three, but it hasn't
- 7:43Speaker 6: been that bad.
- 7:43Speaker 4: And I'm going to Starkville this weekend.
- 7:45Speaker 6: So if anything, like the rule is that if you
- 7:48Speaker 6: break the streak, you just have to start over from
- 7:50Speaker 6: day one. So if anything, I'm gonna be here on
- 7:52Speaker 6: Monday being like I start.
- 7:54Speaker 3: So you could do it's like the rest of your life. Yeah,
- 7:57Speaker 3: let's see how many days I can get this done.
- 7:59Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 8:00Speaker 5: Four.
- 8:00Speaker 6: I think that like after Starkville, if I break it
- 8:03Speaker 6: while I'm there, after that, I don't have anything coming
- 8:06Speaker 6: up to where I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna have to
- 8:10Speaker 6: like break seventy five hard.
- 8:11Speaker 3: So seventy five hard is it's clearly meant to be hard.
- 8:16Speaker 5: Yeah, seventy five days.
- 8:18Speaker 6: Seventy five days. So strict diet, strict like a diet
- 8:22Speaker 6: of your choosing. You can actually choose a diet, but yeah,
- 8:25Speaker 6: i'd say strict, no cheat days, no alcohol. You work
- 8:30Speaker 6: out twice a day, forty five minute just whatever workout,
- 8:33Speaker 6: and then forty five minutes if it has to be outside.
- 8:35Speaker 6: And then you have to drink a gallon of water,
- 8:37Speaker 6: which I think is the hardest one. And then that's
- 8:39Speaker 6: the hardest one for you, a gallon of water, Like
- 8:42Speaker 6: I feel like keeping up. I don't like I drink
- 8:45Speaker 6: water throughout the day, but I don't keep track of
- 8:47Speaker 6: how much I.
- 8:48Speaker 5: Do you have anything mixed in the water?
- 8:50Speaker 4: I do sometimes I put a little my high in there.
- 8:53Speaker 6: Okay, So so like yesterday I did, it'd be like, right,
- 8:55Speaker 6: it doesn't have to Yeah, yesterday I did because I
- 8:58Speaker 6: did the hot pilates, but.
- 9:01Speaker 4: A gallon. And then the other hard part. You gotta
- 9:04Speaker 4: read ten pages of a book.
- 9:06Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a tricky one. Yeah, there's ten pages. Doesn't
- 9:10Speaker 3: seem like a lot.
- 9:11Speaker 6: No, I was falling asleep reading and then I had
- 9:14Speaker 6: five pages left and I was like, I don't know
- 9:16Speaker 6: if I can get through the other five pages.
- 9:18Speaker 4: I did, but I was falling asleep.
- 9:20Speaker 3: So seventy five straight days of a strict diet, no alcohol,
- 9:26Speaker 3: forty five minute workout inside, forty five minute workout outside. Yeah, Like,
- 9:33Speaker 3: is there like a sleep situation those screens.
- 9:37Speaker 4: No, there's not any like that.
- 9:38Speaker 3: It feels like there could have been in the Yeah.
- 9:40Speaker 3: And then they also force you to read.
- 9:42Speaker 4: Books right, and drink a gallon of water.
- 9:47Speaker 5: Drink a gallon of water.
- 9:49Speaker 6: Oh, and you also have to take a picture every day,
- 9:51Speaker 6: like a progress picture every day.
- 9:53Speaker 5: Okay, I guess mirror.
- 9:55Speaker 4: Selfie, yeah, like or whatever, I guess.
- 9:57Speaker 5: Yeah, I've been doing for your only.
- 10:00Speaker 6: Yeah, Like I have an app and you just upload
- 10:03Speaker 6: it into the app.
- 10:05Speaker 5: Oh, so like, oh man, I'm.
- 10:08Speaker 4: Gonna stop doing that. Yeah, how did I not think
- 10:11Speaker 4: of that?
- 10:12Speaker 6: I'm like, well, so I trust Andy Frizella, the guy
- 10:15Speaker 6: that created seventy five Hard, because he's very like I
- 10:19Speaker 6: used to listen to his podcast all the time, and
- 10:21Speaker 6: that's how I got seventy five Hard or how I
- 10:23Speaker 6: heard about it. He has a book out and everything
- 10:26Speaker 6: about it. I don't think Andy would be selling my
- 10:30Speaker 6: selfies to China. China don't want China, don't want myself.
- 10:40Speaker 3: A lot of these sounds of these companies that have apps,
- 10:42Speaker 3: like the most valuable asset that the company has is
- 10:45Speaker 3: information on people.
- 10:47Speaker 4: Stop doing it just in case?
- 10:50Speaker 5: Wait, why do you have to downladt to the app?
- 10:52Speaker 6: Though you don't have to do it, but it's like
- 10:55Speaker 6: if you want to keep up with it, Like in
- 10:57Speaker 6: a there's.
- 10:58Speaker 5: An app that there's a seventy five every day.
- 11:00Speaker 4: And you like check off on the list.
- 11:02Speaker 5: Does any part of it change?
- 11:04Speaker 3: Like I know, like these sometimes these lengthy things like
- 11:07Speaker 3: like self improvement.
- 11:09Speaker 6: Yeah I don't sel this, but like the first ten.
- 11:12Speaker 3: Days it's this, the next ten days it's something else.
- 11:16Speaker 3: So it's just straight read a book.
- 11:18Speaker 4: Yeah, what do you read the Count of Monte Cristo?
- 11:21Speaker 3: Okay, all right, I think that Monty Crystal used to
- 11:26Speaker 3: be a sandwich at Bennegan's.
- 11:27Speaker 4: It is a sandwich, and I think it did used
- 11:30Speaker 4: to be.
- 11:30Speaker 5: At It had powdered sugar on top.
- 11:34Speaker 4: I don't know anything about it.
- 11:35Speaker 5: Pretty sure I never got it. It didn't look very
- 11:37Speaker 5: good to me.
- 11:38Speaker 3: No, like I respect a little like sweet and savory
- 11:43Speaker 3: situation happening same, but not to that extent. No, I
- 11:48Speaker 3: don't want powdered sugar on my sandwich.
- 11:50Speaker 4: No, that feels too like a step too far.
- 11:52Speaker 3: Yeah, so how do you feel about seventy five hard?
- 11:54Speaker 3: Do you think here's something you might.
- 11:56Speaker 5: Like to do?
- 11:58Speaker 4: I feel like I could do so it. Maybe I
- 12:00Speaker 4: could do like seventy five soft? I don't think.
- 12:04Speaker 5: Okay, all right, I got that.
- 12:06Speaker 7: I like same with you. I feel like i'd fall
- 12:09Speaker 7: asleep reading a book. Yeah, I cannot read a book
- 12:12Speaker 7: and like pay attention and like, have.
- 12:15Speaker 3: You ever been diagnosed really bad? This might come to
- 12:20Speaker 3: a shot because y'all, but I.
- 12:25Speaker 5: It's tough for me to sit and read a paper book.
- 12:30Speaker 5: I can follow along and like listen, like y'all know
- 12:33Speaker 5: I'm a diagnosed squirrel seer. Yeah, it's it's always familiar.
- 12:37Speaker 5: It's always familiar.
- 12:38Speaker 4: With very familiar.
- 12:41Speaker 3: It has always been a challenge for me to do it,
- 12:43Speaker 3: because I will I'll read for thirty minutes and I'll
- 12:46Speaker 3: be however many pages in.
- 12:48Speaker 5: And I'm like, I don't know what just happened. But
- 12:50Speaker 5: I don't know what I just read.
- 12:51Speaker 4: Right there, my brain will start to wonder and like, oh.
- 12:53Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll just start thinking about what what I have
- 12:55Speaker 5: to do later on in the day. There's just too
- 12:57Speaker 5: many things.
- 12:58Speaker 4: Do you find myself having to reread?
- 13:00Speaker 6: Yeah, paragraphs and the like pages stretches me out, So
- 13:03Speaker 6: then I just quit.
- 13:04Speaker 4: Yeah, I was.
- 13:07Speaker 6: I had like clothes pins on my eyes last night
- 13:10Speaker 6: trying to finish the last five pages. Also, somebody who's
- 13:12Speaker 6: in the comments like, you never read that book in
- 13:14Speaker 6: high school. I do this thing where I go back
- 13:16Speaker 6: and read books that I read in high school or
- 13:20Speaker 6: like classics back in the day, and I read them
- 13:22Speaker 6: as an adult to see if I like have a
- 13:24Speaker 6: different perspective on them.
- 13:26Speaker 5: That's fair.
- 13:28Speaker 6: Because the Catcher in the Rye was way different in
- 13:30Speaker 6: high school than it was for me as an adult.
- 13:32Speaker 7: I don't think I ever finished a book in high school.
- 13:38Speaker 4: Sorry teachers, F eight am.
- 13:40Speaker 3: You gotta be careful what you say around here. You
- 13:42Speaker 3: got children in cars right.
- 13:43Speaker 4: Now, So finish your books.
- 13:48Speaker 5: Finish your books. I finished.
- 13:49Speaker 3: I've read thousands of books of them on audio.
- 13:56Speaker 7: I feel like that probably would have been different, Like
- 13:58Speaker 7: maybe if I listened to it I was reading it,
- 14:01Speaker 7: it would have been more helpful.
- 14:03Speaker 3: I feel like audiobooks are pretty late, especially on a
- 14:07Speaker 3: car ride. I don't think I ever read The Count
- 14:12Speaker 3: of Monte Cristo.
- 14:13Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that was.
- 14:14Speaker 6: That was one of the requirements that The Great Gatsby
- 14:17Speaker 6: was one.
- 14:18Speaker 4: I think I actually finished The Great Guy.
- 14:20Speaker 7: I liked that one.
- 14:21Speaker 4: I loved. I loved the movie too. Yeah, the DiCaprio movies.
- 14:27Speaker 3: Really, I remember, like the only one that was required
- 14:32Speaker 3: reading that I got into Hamlet.
- 14:34Speaker 4: No, it was The Hobbit that was a required reading.
- 14:39Speaker 5: That was required reading for us. Not a big deal.
- 14:42Speaker 5: We were a little bit cooler, Yeah, Tyler Lee, I.
- 14:46Speaker 4: Guess so.
- 14:48Speaker 6: That Hamlet was always one. Frankenstein, I'm trying to think.
- 14:57Speaker 6: I think The Alchemist was one.
- 14:58Speaker 5: I remember the man y'all had a lot of reading.
- 15:01Speaker 4: To kill a mockingbird was one.
- 15:02Speaker 3: Okay, we had that one too. Yeah, sometimes those mocking birds.
- 15:11Speaker 3: Let me tell you something about a mockingbird. They're the
- 15:14Speaker 3: state bird of Texas, and so like growing up, they're
- 15:18Speaker 3: supposed to be like sacred, like, ooh, you got a
- 15:20Speaker 3: mockingbird in your backyard. Yeah, them some a holes. They
- 15:25Speaker 3: are an a whole breed of a bird.
- 15:27Speaker 4: I guess I've never came across one that was like me.
- 15:29Speaker 3: So my parents they would like to have like bird
- 15:33Speaker 3: feeders out in the yard. Love a humming bird feeder,
- 15:37Speaker 3: love a bird free We had little woods in our backyard,
- 15:40Speaker 3: so we'd get these pretty little birds nice. It's very
- 15:43Speaker 3: lovely to look at. I've never seen anybody complain about
- 15:46Speaker 3: a pretty bird in their backyard, a nice little bird feeder.
- 15:50Speaker 3: But if you get a mockingbird that comes around, fights everything,
- 15:54Speaker 3: scares all.
- 15:54Speaker 5: The pretty birds away.
- 15:56Speaker 3: Got no color out there, You got nothing, no nice
- 15:59Speaker 3: little songs in the morning. Yeah, they just they go
- 16:02Speaker 3: wrestle them, they peck them, they yell at them, they
- 16:06Speaker 3: scream at them too. One time my dad told me, hey, son,
- 16:15Speaker 3: we need our pretty birds back. If you want to
- 16:18Speaker 3: take care of this, go ahead, nobody's watching a couple
- 16:23Speaker 3: less mocking birds.
- 16:24Speaker 4: Is this like the situation?
- 16:27Speaker 5: Yeah, the statue limitations is run out.
- 16:29Speaker 3: But yes, in Texas there might have been a situation
- 16:33Speaker 3: at the Flynn household backyard with the state bird, with.
- 16:38Speaker 6: The state birds. Crazy, that's a federal crime.
- 16:44Speaker 3: No, No, actually checks out. No, I don't think the
- 16:49Speaker 3: US government protects state birds.
- 16:53Speaker 4: Yeah, anyway, it should be a federal.
- 16:55Speaker 5: Crime with the Republican Texas. No, we're not gonna make
- 17:00Speaker 5: this about Texas. We're just saying I had to.
- 17:03Speaker 3: I had to get that out there because it's something
- 17:05Speaker 3: that plagues me today. I see a mocking bird in
- 17:07Speaker 3: my yard right now, chase it off. We're not committing
- 17:10Speaker 3: any crimes.
- 17:11Speaker 6: We're chasing it off right because you're not about to

- 23:30Speaker 3: LSU baseball took to the diamond last night on a
- 23:33Speaker 3: Tuesday game, a midweek game. And you know, you can
- 23:37Speaker 3: ever take these for granted, especially this season for LSU baseball.
- 23:41Speaker 3: We've certainly had our fair share of woes on a
- 23:44Speaker 3: Tuesday night.
- 23:45Speaker 5: But LSU Tigers take care of business. Uh they defeat you.
- 23:49Speaker 3: N No, the privateers, did you cass Did you find
- 23:53Speaker 3: that that logo?
- 23:54Speaker 5: Is it a pirate.
- 23:55Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a pirate. It's a pirate.
- 23:59Speaker 5: Well, that's absolutely a pirate.
- 24:02Speaker 4: But they are the privateer, they're the privateers.
- 24:05Speaker 5: Interesting, Okay, it's a pirate, all right.
- 24:08Speaker 3: I would just say pirateiers was them, but that's just me.
- 24:12Speaker 3: I don't really know the history, but you know, good
- 24:15Speaker 3: for them anyway, that was shoe beats.
- 24:18Speaker 4: Okay, I know the difference. I just looked it up.
- 24:21Speaker 5: Okay.
- 24:22Speaker 6: A privateer is a privately owned ship. So like this
- 24:26Speaker 6: is they're allowed to do this, and pirates are like illegal,
- 24:31Speaker 6: Like pirates do what they do illegally.
- 24:33Speaker 5: Okay, so they're nice pirates, right, they're good pirates.
- 24:35Speaker 3: They're good pirates. So they are legally owning a ship.
- 24:40Speaker 3: They're not illegally boarding other ships and stealing their booty.
- 24:45Speaker 6: Yeah so yeah, no booty stealing from the privateers.
- 24:49Speaker 4: But the pirates are out here robing the seas.
- 24:52Speaker 5: Yeah, so the privateers probably have the.
- 24:54Speaker 4: Privateers are getting robbed by the pirates.
- 24:56Speaker 3: Interesting, So they're selling probably just goods and trading merchants
- 25:02Speaker 3: on water. But they dress similar Like why would one
- 25:06Speaker 3: people have the different clothes at that time than another one? Right,
- 25:09Speaker 3: so they have they dress similar. They look similar.
- 25:12Speaker 4: Privateers actually attack enemy ships during wartime, and they're authorized
- 25:16Speaker 4: by the government to do it. So do the privateers
- 25:19Speaker 4: attack the pirates? Maybe so good?
- 25:22Speaker 5: Interesting, interesting flip there.
- 25:27Speaker 4: They often active like pirates.
- 25:29Speaker 3: They dress as pirates to infiltrate their system. Yeah, and
- 25:34Speaker 3: defeat them from the inside out. I don't know this
- 25:37Speaker 3: is I like this.
- 25:37Speaker 4: You learn something new every day.
- 25:39Speaker 5: I don't know. Pirates is cooler? Could have just been
- 25:41Speaker 5: the pirateers, right, all right?
- 25:44Speaker 4: Privateer a little too wholesome.
- 25:46Speaker 5: Kind of nerdy.
- 25:47Speaker 3: You're a legal and wholesome pirate, right, okay, cool, Well
- 25:51Speaker 3: that's why you got.
- 25:53Speaker 6: They do blow up wartime ships, so they are kind
- 25:56Speaker 6: of bad at that is cool, But you.
- 26:00Speaker 5: Could see where the confusion lies.
- 26:01Speaker 4: Absolutely all right.
- 26:05Speaker 5: Well, look we learned something today, and I hope you
- 26:08Speaker 5: did too, if you're listening.
- 26:11Speaker 4: Oh look at that though, definitely.
- 26:14Speaker 3: But I guess his clothes are a little bit nicer
- 26:18Speaker 3: than a pirate would.
- 26:19Speaker 5: Jacket's not quite as long.
- 26:22Speaker 4: Yeah, Jack Sparrow looked a lot dinger.
- 26:24Speaker 5: He did look a lot dinger in that.
- 26:25Speaker 3: So they these guys have showers on their boats, no question,
- 26:29Speaker 3: or just jump in the oceaning clean.
- 26:32Speaker 5: Do you think they have a plank?
- 26:35Speaker 6: Probably for the the war criminals, the war criminals.
- 26:38Speaker 5: People that actually, but they probably they probably stand trial first.
- 26:43Speaker 4: They're fair hard, but fair, right, Okay, shout out to privateers.
- 26:50Speaker 5: Yeah, the privateers.
- 26:51Speaker 3: All right, respect, We learned a lot about our own
- 26:53Speaker 3: state universe, one of our own state universities today.
- 26:56Speaker 5: All right, good, all right.
- 26:57Speaker 3: LSU baseball beats them though, ten to seven to the
- 26:59Speaker 3: seven win last night on a Tuesday night, and you know,
- 27:03Speaker 3: I think, what can you know? We're coming off the
- 27:06Speaker 3: Jake Brown News, Cooper More News, Like what's it going
- 27:10Speaker 3: to be? You could tell Jay wanted to get a
- 27:12Speaker 3: lot of people, some some looks yesterday, got a lot
- 27:14Speaker 3: of people back in the lineup, and what can only
- 27:18Speaker 3: be described it's kind of a little bit of a
- 27:20Speaker 3: youth movement, probably yesterday getting a lot of people. And
- 27:23Speaker 3: they came through big fifth inning, seven runs in the
- 27:27Speaker 3: fifth Jack rutgerd Omar Cerna, Mason Brown, William Patrick all
- 27:32Speaker 3: got involved at the at.
- 27:34Speaker 5: The plate in that win.
- 27:36Speaker 3: And yeah, they scored seven runs in the fifth inning
- 27:40Speaker 3: to take a lead.
- 27:40Speaker 5: To believe at the time.
- 27:45Speaker 4: Well, I think they were in the lead two to one.
- 27:46Speaker 4: I don't know, hold on now.
- 27:48Speaker 5: They were down two to one going into the fifth,
- 27:51Speaker 5: which is.
- 27:51Speaker 6: Kind of how like the season has been going with
- 27:55Speaker 6: like the exception of the fifth inning where you scored
- 27:57Speaker 6: seven runs, and you've had a couple of series where
- 28:00Speaker 6: that happens where your offense is cold. For the like Tennessee,
- 28:04Speaker 6: that kind of happened with them where they were cold,
- 28:06Speaker 6: but then they would explode for like ten runs in
- 28:08Speaker 6: one inning. But that's kind of the story of the season.
- 28:12Speaker 6: But to me, we were talking about this when Will
- 28:16Speaker 6: came in the other day. How ironically, to me, it
- 28:20Speaker 6: feels like the bullpen is really the only thing that's
- 28:23Speaker 6: headed in the right direction, not the starting pitching, but
- 28:25Speaker 6: the bullpen itself. And I mean, Grant Fontina did well
- 28:29Speaker 6: last night, four innings, pitched five strikeouts, But Danny Lochenbeyer,
- 28:34Speaker 6: he has had like a few good outings and he
- 28:37Speaker 6: had an inning and two thirds and five strikeouts last night.
- 28:41Speaker 6: And as a staff, you had two four fus.
- 28:46Speaker 4: Beta math but you didn't have that many walks.
- 28:49Speaker 6: You had way more strikeouts than you did walks.
- 28:53Speaker 4: But yeah, I mean, I guess that's just kind of
- 28:55Speaker 4: been the story of the season.
- 28:56Speaker 3: I think they the bullpen was pretty pretty good, yes,
- 29:00Speaker 3: besides the outlier of San Diego Garcia was not very good.
- 29:04Speaker 3: I think he came in and uh, he gave two runs.
- 29:07Speaker 3: He probably hit a batter with a three to zero count.
- 29:10Speaker 3: Then he walked another the next guy, I think on
- 29:12Speaker 3: five pitches, wild pitch.
- 29:16Speaker 5: He wasn't good.
- 29:17Speaker 3: Then I think, yeah, so gave but you know what,
- 29:23Speaker 3: like you said, I mean that was kind of you know,
- 29:26Speaker 3: their season in a nutshell like okay, throughout the game.
- 29:32Speaker 3: I think the only outlier that I saw from the
- 29:34Speaker 3: rest of the season, Hey, zero.
- 29:35Speaker 5: Errors a nice So I think, yeah, actually, some of
- 29:41Speaker 5: these freshmen that that did well.
- 29:42Speaker 3: We talked about the freshman in the fifth inning. Jack
- 29:44Speaker 3: Rutger had two hits in the fifth and he played
- 29:47Speaker 3: pretty nice, pretty nice on defense as well.
- 29:51Speaker 5: Umar Cerna had a two run single, Mason Brown had.
- 29:54Speaker 3: A pinch hit single and had a little diving catch
- 29:56Speaker 3: and left field as well. Yeah, so we we flashed
- 29:59Speaker 3: some gloves out there. Then the other freshman, William Patrick
- 30:01Speaker 3: got hit by a pitch.
- 30:02Speaker 5: In that inning.
- 30:04Speaker 6: It's good to see though, Steven Milam have a couple
- 30:07Speaker 6: of good offensive games. In a cluster, you know what
- 30:12Speaker 6: I mean, Like it feels like maybe he's headed in
- 30:13Speaker 6: a good direction as well.
- 30:15Speaker 5: Yep.
- 30:16Speaker 4: But if you're gonna get hot, now is the time.
- 30:19Speaker 4: I mean it is now or never, Like now is
- 30:22Speaker 4: the time.
- 30:23Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 30:24Speaker 3: So, and last night it wasn't like there wasn't any
- 30:27Speaker 3: one person that just had a great day at the plate.
- 30:32Speaker 3: He had Aaron Beadi had a home run, a line
- 30:33Speaker 3: drive home run. But I think the only person with
- 30:36Speaker 3: more than one hit was Jack Rutger, who had two
- 30:39Speaker 3: in one inning, which is fantastic. But I mean, nobody
- 30:42Speaker 3: just completely went off. Certainly as we saw Zach Yorke
- 30:45Speaker 3: back in the lineup, he was over three. I believe
- 30:49Speaker 3: he drew a walk though in that fit inning that
- 30:51Speaker 3: helped helped kind of that offensive production. But no one
- 30:54Speaker 3: just like completely stood out. So certainly a lineup that's
- 30:58Speaker 3: going to miss Jake Brown, you know. And I know
- 31:02Speaker 3: he hasn't been producing the way we hoped or expected
- 31:05Speaker 3: he would in sec play, but he's still a stabilizing
- 31:08Speaker 3: force in yeah, in the lineup, you know, and I
- 31:13Speaker 3: get it that the team is kind of to this
- 31:16Speaker 3: point of the year is what it is. And you
- 31:18Speaker 3: have to turn around. But having Jake Brown in the
- 31:20Speaker 3: lineup certainly was that stabilizing factor and from a leadership
- 31:26Speaker 3: standpoint and a vet so and he was, you know,
- 31:29Speaker 3: with his woes in sec play, still betting three oh
- 31:33Speaker 3: nine on the season. But Derek Curio still your guy,
- 31:35Speaker 3: the betting three fifty four, Kate Amarbani betting three eleven
- 31:38Speaker 3: on the season, Jake Brown was at three oh nine
- 31:40Speaker 3: and those are the only three above three hundred. So
- 31:43Speaker 3: Stephen Mylin is starting to produce well but from the plate.
- 31:47Speaker 3: But he is still to eighty one for the season.
- 31:50Speaker 3: So yeah, but I mean we've seen that dude. He's
- 31:53Speaker 3: a dude. So he's really and he's gonna have to
- 31:57Speaker 3: He's gonna have to step up. Yeah, there's a lot
- 31:59Speaker 3: of guys are gonna to step up.
- 32:00Speaker 5: Aaron beat He's gonna have to continue to do what
- 32:02Speaker 5: he's doing. Curio just just keep.
- 32:05Speaker 6: Doing you maybe losing Brown, They're like, oh, let's go,
- 32:09Speaker 6: let's go win for our boy.
- 32:11Speaker 3: You know, Curiel is going to be the highest drafted
- 32:14Speaker 3: guy on the team right probably, I would think. So
- 32:17Speaker 3: he's the one guy that gets up to the plate,
- 32:20Speaker 3: like from a game to game basis, and I'm like,
- 32:23Speaker 3: this guy is going to give a competitive at bat,
- 32:26Speaker 3: he's gonna have a good eye, but he's going to
- 32:27Speaker 3: also protect the plate. He's going to get his swings in,
- 32:30Speaker 3: his cuts in, and protect every single pitch. That's but
- 32:34Speaker 3: that's the one guy. Now some guys I feel like
- 32:36Speaker 3: that for a game or two, but then it's like, like,
- 32:39Speaker 3: what are they doing? Kind of situation.
- 32:41Speaker 6: You talk about professional hitter Derek Curiel, h we don't
- 32:47Speaker 6: have a lot of those on this team.
- 32:49Speaker 5: No, we do not.
- 32:52Speaker 3: Okay, look, let's let's go break, let's come back on
- 32:54Speaker 3: the side, and let's keep talking a little elissue baseball.
- 32:56Speaker 3: I know we we kind of discussed a little bit
- 32:59Speaker 3: this week about Jay's roster comments after this past weekend,
- 33:05Speaker 3: but I want to get into that a little bit
- 33:07Speaker 3: more and just kind of keep talking about where LSU

- 37:27Speaker 3: the LSU.
- 37:28Speaker 5: U and O game. Huge victory for the Tigers last night,
- 37:31Speaker 5: midweek game.
- 37:33Speaker 3: Huge huge ten to seven against the Legal Pirates, the
- 37:39Speaker 3: good guys on the water.
- 37:41Speaker 5: Uh.
- 37:43Speaker 3: But what we hadn't really talked about was Jay's comments
- 37:47Speaker 3: after this past weekend getting swept for the second weekend
- 37:51Speaker 3: in a row against Texas A and m Okay, so
- 37:55Speaker 3: when this came out, This came out Friday, the Saturday
- 37:58Speaker 3: before their second game in the series. So he made
- 38:02Speaker 3: some comments about you know, this shouldn't happen again, and
- 38:05Speaker 3: taking ownership, which is what you want a coach to do.
- 38:08Speaker 3: Every good coach, every good leader of a team always
- 38:13Speaker 3: takes ownership. Whether it's his fault or not, he always
- 38:17Speaker 3: takes ownership. And I was always told as a quarterback,
- 38:19Speaker 3: you got to do that. If you make a bad
- 38:21Speaker 3: if you fumble a snap, it away in your fault,
- 38:25Speaker 3: say it was my fault as a quarterback. It's always
- 38:28Speaker 3: your fault as the quarterback. Because you're the leader. You
- 38:31Speaker 3: have to take ownership. You don't ever want to throw
- 38:33Speaker 3: anybody under the bus, and that's what Jay's doing a
- 38:36Speaker 3: lot right here, but kind of a little bit backhandedly
- 38:43Speaker 3: also saying that his team or some of the guys
- 38:47Speaker 3: on the team aren't performing the way he wants to,
- 38:50Speaker 3: kind of like the old Skip Bourbon story. It's like, hey,
- 38:53Speaker 3: it's not your fault that you miss that, it's my
- 38:56Speaker 3: fault for recruiting you type deal. Like we've heard that
- 38:58Speaker 3: story told a thousand times here as Tiger fans, and
- 39:02Speaker 3: you get coaches that say that all the time. Right
- 39:04Speaker 3: there's always like I made the biggest mistake, you know, recruiting.
- 39:06Speaker 3: I shouldn't have done that.
- 39:07Speaker 5: That's on me. That's not on you. You're not good enough
- 39:10Speaker 5: to do that. Blah blah blah.
- 39:12Speaker 3: But what you don't really hear a lot is it
- 39:14Speaker 3: kind of discussed like that openly in the media, especially
- 39:17Speaker 3: like in the middle of the season and especially in
- 39:19Speaker 3: the middle of a series like that. And he said,
- 39:21Speaker 3: he said, quote, I made some mistakes in constructing the
- 39:24Speaker 3: team and trying to replace two guys that were irreplaceable,
- 39:28Speaker 3: where we should have looked for replacing them through guys
- 39:31Speaker 3: that were already in the program, and then replace the
- 39:34Speaker 3: guys that were athletic and could play defense and be
- 39:37Speaker 3: more complete players. So you know, and y'all can correct
- 39:41Speaker 3: me if I'm wrong here, but it sounds like he's
- 39:43Speaker 3: trying to replace the power hitting of Jared Jones and
- 39:48Speaker 3: Ethan Fry from a year ago with through the transfer
- 39:52Speaker 3: portal instead of trying to replace them. Of course, he
- 39:55Speaker 3: got replacement this year by Jake Brown, who leads the
- 39:58Speaker 3: team with home runs, but trying to do so with
- 40:02Speaker 3: a lot of the transfers. And so that would be
- 40:05Speaker 3: Zach York, Trent Carraway, Seth dard Aar, Brandon Simpson, all
- 40:10Speaker 3: guys that were brought in that have I mean, I
- 40:14Speaker 3: don't want to say like the word failed or anything,
- 40:17Speaker 3: but like it's been underwhelming and has not gotten you
- 40:20Speaker 3: the production that certainly that you went in as the
- 40:24Speaker 3: reigning national champion, you would think you'd get the cherry pick, right,
- 40:28Speaker 3: it's and you're from a from a school that likes
- 40:30Speaker 3: that will give you any resource you want.
- 40:32Speaker 5: So you they were probably cherry picked at the time.
- 40:36Speaker 3: Yeah, And you know, I don't know what the transfer
- 40:38Speaker 3: portal was like in college baseball, especially after guys get
- 40:41Speaker 3: picked through in the draft and and different things like that.
- 40:45Speaker 3: But what Jay's saying is he wants to recruit power
- 40:49Speaker 3: out of high school and promote that from within and
- 40:52Speaker 3: then kind of also go in the transfer portal to
- 40:55Speaker 3: get the athletic guys, the more athletic guys instead of
- 40:58Speaker 3: having to recruit power. And I I was kind of
- 41:00Speaker 3: like trying to figure out why just because it didn't
- 41:03Speaker 3: work one year, Like would you would that be the
- 41:06Speaker 3: philosophy is that because power hitting is so.
- 41:10Speaker 5: Hit or miss well, so like streaky.
- 41:13Speaker 6: Yeah, So we asked him at the beginning of the
- 41:15Speaker 6: season and he used like the moneyball analogy, right, Like
- 41:19Speaker 6: he not money wise, but just in terms of trying
- 41:23Speaker 6: to like have the same amount of production from multiple
- 41:27Speaker 6: people that you had from two people on the team.
- 41:30Speaker 5: Right.
- 41:30Speaker 6: I think the issue with that is that you don't
- 41:33Speaker 6: have somebody that's like pictures from other teams are scared
- 41:37Speaker 6: to pitch to them because they except for maybe Derek Kurile,
- 41:41Speaker 6: where pitchers are like pitching around them, right, Right, But
- 41:50Speaker 6: as of recent no, I don't think that you've had
- 41:52Speaker 6: somebody that's like a dude on your team, and like
- 41:54Speaker 6: the moneyball approach works whenever you have somebody like Jared Jones,
- 41:58Speaker 6: that's hitting just bombs all season and you haven't had
- 42:02Speaker 6: that this season. I think you need one or two
- 42:04Speaker 6: other guys that are dudes before you can try that approach.
- 42:08Speaker 3: And look the four guys that were you know, we
- 42:11Speaker 3: would think that were probably brought in to replace the
- 42:13Speaker 3: two big bats from a year ago. Zach York's bet
- 42:16Speaker 3: two forty eight six home runs, Trent Carroway betten two
- 42:19Speaker 3: fifty two home runs, Seth Dard Been two sixty six
- 42:22Speaker 3: five home runs, Braiden Simpson betten two fifty with two
- 42:25Speaker 3: home runs, Braiden with probably the least amount of at
- 42:27Speaker 3: bats or opportunities. You can't predict that as a coach,
- 42:33Speaker 3: right Like you can recruit what you see, and what
- 42:35Speaker 3: you saw in recruiting these guys was way better batting averages,
- 42:40Speaker 3: way more production and power, and sometime as a coach
- 42:45Speaker 3: you just can't. You've got to control the controllables, and
- 42:48Speaker 3: sometimes you can't control that batter's getting slumps. And they
- 42:51Speaker 3: certainly just have not performed on the SEC level. And
- 42:53Speaker 3: I say the SEC level.
- 42:55Speaker 6: Like not even the midweek in the MIDWEK level, Yeah,
- 42:58Speaker 6: not even the Conference USA.
- 43:00Speaker 5: I mean I think Zach had four rang off four
- 43:01Speaker 5: home runs real early. Yeah, everyone's like I.
- 43:04Speaker 6: I mean, it's whenever your first swing at the bat
- 43:07Speaker 6: ever is a home run. Yeah, you think that's a
- 43:10Speaker 6: sign of things to come, but it just wasn't.
- 43:12Speaker 3: Yeah it sound good. All right, Well, well here's too.
- 43:15Speaker 3: I hoping they get it turned around quick. Let's go
- 43:17Speaker 3: to break. We're going to finish out with surprise, surprise, everybody.
- 43:20Speaker 3: We're gonna finish out with a short segment here.

- 45:24Speaker 5: if y'all were recruited LSU to hit bombs and then

- 45:32Speaker 5: made a mistake.
- 45:33Speaker 6: You right, coaches, I mean like, obviously i'd be a
- 45:39Speaker 6: little butt hurt, but like, you know what, I'm not

- 45:54Speaker 4: Do anything like that. To be fair, and so you
- 45:57Speaker 4: know he's done.
- 45:58Speaker 3: Like the immediate reaction to for me, it was like,
- 46:00Speaker 3: oh man, like mids like I get into the season
- 46:03Speaker 3: and I get like lighting a fire. But I did
- 46:06Speaker 3: think that was out of character a little bit. But look,
- 46:09Speaker 3: everything Jake does, I feel like it's so calculated. Yes,
- 46:12Speaker 3: so maybe it's just one of those things that we've
- 46:15Speaker 3: seen him get thrown out of games. Calculated And he
- 46:17Speaker 3: told us on the show, He's like, yep, I yeah,
- 46:20Speaker 3: I was calculated. I don't think he made a miss
- 46:24Speaker 3: step there. He's he did it for a reason, So
- 46:26Speaker 3: hopefully it pans out. All right, We're gonna close out
