Your football and they go whistle. So, yeah, it's too.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Bad, But what did you expect.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
It's a podcast call twenty five whistles twenty wine.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Hello, welcome to another episode will blow the whistle. I
got to thank you, thank you. We have been on
the road a lot, about ten thousand miles over the
past four or five days. Going to Oregon was super cool.
It I'm gonna be honest with you. It did a
long trip. Yeah, there's a reason I don't go up
there every day. It just took a long time. It
(00:38):
took four and a half hours from Chicago.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Why would you go there every day?
Speaker 2 (00:42):
It's awesome, but you're right, I would like to go
up there more. But yeah, we went up for Oregon
to go hang out, and we're gonna actually start with
the interview here in just a second. I'll tell you
where I got irritated and I shouldn't, but on my
Instagram I have posted a video just raw pictures of
some of our trip in Oregon. I'm throwing the football,
(01:02):
I'm sitting with Coach Landing. But the third slide in
the carousel is of me bench pressing, and I'm bitch
pressing two green plates and those are forty five's there.
Their plates are green and yellow like their colors. So
the forty fives are green and so uh. And their
linebacker Jeffrey Bossa was spotting me. He was like Mark
(01:25):
working out with me, not working just whatever. He was
helping me. And you see in the video. I get
the weight up and I wasn't cold, but I was coolish.
It's not like we were there a long We stretched our
arms and didn't not much. George Burge, who's a friend
of mine, country artists, George Burg. No, well he's not
the hater, okay, George burg has I got my mind
(01:47):
on you guy, You on my mind. He writes two
twenty five like nothing, which is what that rep was.
It was two twenty five. Some jerk one Alex Underscorehindron
writes one forty five like nothing. Those plates are twenty
five vers.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Oh yeah, here, come on.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I know I'm pretty immune the people online saying things
about me, because it's happened my whole career. I was
pissed when I saw this. He doesn't know, No, it's wrong.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
And the greens were forty five's yeah, and the yellows
were thirty fives, I believe, right.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
I don't know if that's true.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
I think those were five fives.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Oka, but the greens were forty five. I never saw
thirty fives. I think they had forty.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
No, they just had twenty five and then little ten
pound plates.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
They don't do that over there. I don't do thirty five.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I was so insulted at this dude who knows nothing,
Alexandro and you piece of garbage. Oh wow, wowow right,
he knows nothing. And if I'm going to push that
hard on one forty five, I don't think i'd be
flexing that on camera.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Yeah, yeah, I would, that's fair, but not you.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
One forty five like nothing. Those are twenty five platers,
I said, no, they aren't, they're forty fives. They're green,
like the green means anything. Yeah. Yeah, I just wanted
to say that I was insulted by that.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
You should be because you you lifted that. We were
all there, we saw it, and we're proud of you.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
People tell me all the time, you're not funny, Okay,
you're ugly, okay, whatever, Okay, sure, I guess because that's opinion.
I am on camp. This is not ais this is
not a deep fake, and you don't know what you're
talking about. Stupid guy in the internet.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
He's obviously he never worked out there.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
You have obviously point.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yeah, that's a good point. So yeah, no, I wrote that.
If you go to that, I prefer a few replied
to his stupid idiot.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
I learned to count.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Stupid idiot anyway. I was very insulted, and I don't
get insulted that.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Much, and usually you get insulted by dumb things. That
one that's valid. That's validated.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
All he has to do is ask Dylan Gabriel.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
We got around, Oh that's right. Yeah, you won't hear
that in this one, but you're right. Dylan Gabriel, HEI'SMA
front runner who we talked to as well. I was like, hey,
I heard you do up a two forty five, which
means they were talking all about it. I heard the
I'm waiting for an offer. I keep waiting for coach call.
We had a great time in Oregon, and we're going
to start with that interview. Uh, this is our sit
(04:03):
down with Oregon head football coach Dan Lanning, which, by
the way, it is weird when a head football coach
at a major school that's a National Championship caliber program,
is younger than you are.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Yeah. Yeah, and making a lot more money than I am.
That everyone. That's everyone.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
I noticed he didn't say you, he said I.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I was about to be insulted. Dan Lane was awesome.
I mean, it was so great again, but it was
a little weird because he's younger. That's so cool. Imagine
being in your thirties and being the head coach, or
imagine like Sean McVay with the RAM Yeah, yeah, exactly,
which but I feel like a college program you have
more responsibility than an NFL program as far as things
(04:46):
you have to do because NFL there's a lot to do,
but it's pro it's just football.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
College.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
You have to like cultivate relationships, call kids, make sure
they go special, raise money. Yes, I feel like that job,
like the surface area. There's more to do and so
it'd be harder to do if you're younger and I
l no.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah. He's coached under Nick Saban Kirby smart coach novel
and at Florida State. He's twenty two and five and
two years as Oregon's head coach. His team has the
fourth best odds to win the championship this year. According to Vegas,
he was awesome, though very cool. He's big and not
think he was that big. And if he threw up
two green plates, I'd be like, shout out. I wouldn't
be like those are those are twenty five's. This dude, though,
(05:30):
went straight at me and I was I was offended.
I say, here he is head coach Dan Lanning, coach, Thanks,
appreciate you being here. Actually we're here. I guess you're
already here, so I appreciate us to be in here.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Right, yea, yes for coming.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I got a couple questions for you when I was
looking at kind of your history. You went from being
a GA obviously to a position coach, but then back
to a GA at Bama. Was that a tough call
for you to take a step back but the program
was a step up?
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Yeah, it really wasn't. I knew I had more to learn.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Certainly financially it didn't make a lot of sense, but
from a professional development standpoint, it was definitely the right move.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
I was with coach Prime. We played a softball game
to the other a couple days ago, and he was
saying some really wonderful things about you. Now earlier in
the year, whenever that before that game that blew up
and I did not expect coach He was like, where
are you going? I said, we're going to see coach Michael.
You're gonna love him. You're gonna love him. I guess
I didn't know that he he loved you.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
I think I think both of us have a lot
of admiration and respect for each other. I think something
completely got blown, blown out of proportion. I certainly appreciate
him and what he's done for the game, and it's
hard not to appreciate what he did as a player.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
It's unbelievable what he did as a.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Player, and now to see what he's done for the
game of football, it's it's a lot of fun to watch.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
You're not even forty yet, correct now, Yeah, so you've
you've got to be playing a TAA college football.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
Not not yet.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
You know, we just had a walk through this morning,
had some guys on the field, and there's a lot
of a lot of chatter going on. So the guys
will come over to the house later at night and
maybe we'll look it up. But I doubt I get
on the sticks.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
It's been a long time.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
What was the last stick you got on?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Then, whenever COVID happened and we were all kind of
locked in our basements, I used to tell my wife,
I'm going downstairs to recruit and I hop I'd hop
on Call of Duty and try to play these guys
in Call of Duty.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
That was like my last.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Experience, and I got smoked. So sometimes I put my
son on there. He'd play, and I would be on
the headset talking like I I was the guy, you know,
backing it up.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
The problem with the headset though, because I would play
a little bit with like randos that you just link
up with. But it's like twelve year olds who dominate
me then make me feel worse as a human than
I already do.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Yeah, it's it's embarrassing when you're getting smoked in that game.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
So this Oregon it's awesome. I mean it's everything you
could want, as far as like facilities, as far as
the resources that go into it. People love you here.
You've been killing it as a head coach. But I
assume even as good and as great as you do,
there's always that pressure because they're providing the resources for you.
To keep knocking it out of the park. Is that true?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Yeah, there's always pressure with any job, and you know,
I hope there's pressure.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
It means you're not in the right spot right. You
want to You don't want to be comfortable, and we
all have goals and aspirations.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
This is certainly a place that you can accomplish them,
but it's not supposed to be easy. So it's fun
to be in a place where we want to compete.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Do you look at the preseason rankings? No? You already
say no, but you care? See I hear you? Who cares? Amen?
But like one eye, you like blink at it for
a second just to see.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
No, No, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I mean the opinions of everyone outside of this room,
no offense, the opinions you guys, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Ourds are great though, you know we have a really
good life.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
Good opinions.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Well sure, but I'll tell you this, we don't pay
a lot of attention to them because they don't affect
the outcome on the field. You know, the people on
this program, they're going to affect the outcome on the field.
So we try to focus on us twelve teams in
the playoffs this year doesn't really affect you guys, because
you guys are always in the mix anyway. So your
thoughts on the spansion of the playoffs, because it feels
like to me, Oregon just got to play a couple
(09:02):
more games.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Now.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
I think it's great for college football from the standpoint,
there's gonna be a little bit more interest at the
end of the season than there has been. But the end,
the goal hasn't changed for us.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Just when how much do you say when it comes
to what uniforms are going to wear or what uniforms
are going to be created? Do you ever see one
that doesn't even get to the player's eyes because you're
like that one is not good?
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Sometimes there's a no.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
But but once once we have the go, that's kind
of where I step out, right, so I get to
see them in advance. But our creative team, our design group,
they do they do an unbelievable job and then they
get a lot of feedback from our players, right, Kenny
Farr does a great job working with Nike, and you
know those guys that create some some awesome get ups
for our guys. But a lot of times we get
(09:47):
to the game on Saturday, when I walk out the tunnel,
that's when I see it the first time. No, way,
not the very first time. But like, but I'm not
that week. I'm a lot more worried.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
About the opponent than what we're gonna win the game.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I feel like my number one party be Jersey Jersey.
So do you have like a guy that will say
to you, hey, this looks great? This does it? Is
there a an aesthetics head of aesthetics here?
Speaker 3 (10:09):
No, we have an equipment manager, you know, and he's
on top of it. He does as good a job
as anybody in the nation. In fact, I think he's
the best in the nation when it comes to piecing
this together. It's Kenny Fahr. And again he does a
great job of meeting with our players, collaborating with them,
collaborating with Nike to create some really cool setups for
our guys.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Coach of the network loves highlighting your excitement and you
pumping up the team. And there's always a video montage
of somewhere during the game. Do you sometimes go home
and watch and be like, home, man, like go too hard?
I went way too hard, you know.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
I don't normally watch the TV copy you know, at
times we might go back and like peel through it
for you know, to make sure we don't put any
signals on film or things like that. But I don't
spend a lot of time watching that, and I'm never
gonna be I'm never gonna apologize for passion. I think
the players are going to match your energy and enthusiasm,
So that's something I always want to carry on the field.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
You mentioned you're not gonna watch signal, possibly because signals
could be out there that that's not really a thing anymore.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
I think it'll still exist in college football, just because
there's still gonna be some teams that carry tempo. And
if you're you know, reliant to just giving the call
and one to one guy in the field, you're probably
going to be short. You know, you want eleven guys
playing the same call on both sides of the ball.
So at times, I think signals will still exist.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Are you advocating now that every player has communication to
their helmet, because that's what I hear.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Yeah, i'd be, I'd be. I'd be great with that.
There's probably some guys that there's such thing as too
much information too.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
When you get on the field, your best players. You
just wanted to be able to play.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
But yeah, I think there's probably a benefit to just
to where everybody can hear the call, and that would
that would certainly help things.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
What if everybody ELSEO could talk back? Because I worked
at Hobby Lobby for that and they gave me a speaker.
I was on the thing all the time and I
didn't need to say anything.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
You ever been on alwaukie talkie where the other guy's
always talking and you can.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Ever, Yeah, that was me at Hobby Lobby. They would
be like, hey, go down and set up this display,
and I was like, hey, guys, if you could three like,
I'll three like she's got to you know that kind
of stuff. So yeah, that probably wouldn't be good right.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
And not be a good thing.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Do you ever feel like you you'll change your offense
or defense based on personnel that comes in if the
talent is so strikingly Let's say, you know, you run
wide open, but let's say this guy comes in and
is a straight ahead runner and maybe doesn't need it
as wide open? Will you change your offense at all
for that?
Speaker 5 (12:26):
Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (12:27):
I think a coach's job is to match the you know,
the talents of his personnel. And that's you know, going
back to being a high school coach, I think you
have to look and see what your players do best
and try to make sure you're utilizing their talents.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
When you were your first GA job, what was the
goal for you?
Speaker 1 (12:43):
There?
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Was it to be a head coach at a major university?
Speaker 5 (12:47):
Yeah? I mean that that was a goal early on.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
But you know, early in my career, I think I
figured out just be the best at where I'm at
and try to do jobs that nobody else wants to do.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
When you're defensive cornator Georgia, I hated you, man, I
hated you. Who's your team Arkansas?
Speaker 5 (12:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Yeah, I hate get Yeah. And you know, not every
O C or d C is known, especially when you're
under somebody like a Kirby Smart or a Nick Saban,
two guys that you've worked with, right, both those guys.
I hated you because there was there was no opportunity.
It was ugly when you have the players like that
(13:20):
and you're playing I don't know, let's let's just make
up a team Arkansas and they're pretty weak. Do you know,
like this game? All we have to do if we
do exactly what we've set forward. It is going to
be over. They are not going to get anything. You know.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
The great thing about football is you never really feel
that way. And I get nervous before every single game.
Certainly we have more talent than than Arkansas when we
played them.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
But Arkansas, No, no, we're talking about hypothetical Arkansas.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
How's the talent for Arkansas?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
No? No, no, no, it's great to be better, it's not
a better coach.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean I think anytime you go
in there knowing that if you don't if you don't
accomplish your goals and really you know, operate on the
same page, you got an opportunity to lose in college football,
and that's part of what makes the games great. So
we try to prepare for every game the same and
hope that we go play our best and the result
hopefully takes care of itself.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
When you walk into a mom or a dad or
a grandma whomember raises the athlete that you're trying to recruit,
what do they know about you? Once you're gone? That
makes them want to come here?
Speaker 5 (14:17):
Once I'm gone?
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Yeah, once you leave the room, wance, you leave the house.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Just then I'm authentic, like I'm the same guy today
that I was, you know, twenty years ago. I hope
that's what people can always say about me, that just
because positions have changed and situations changed, that I'm the
same person and that family matters to me. I think
if you're in the room with me for ten minutes,
you're probably gonna hear about my boys and my wife.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
And that's something that's important to me. And that we
treat the players on our team the same way.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Sometimes I'll see and I have a little warehouse we do.
I have a little clothing line. It's we do a
lot of charity work with our clothing line. And we
have one of those little machines that prints out the shirts.
I feel like here there's like a one of those,
you know, apparel printing machines. You just get anything you
want printed. Is it on campus or do you have
to have a ship to you because it's NonStop everything's
Oregon everything.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Yeah, it's a good setup. You know, we've got an
awesome relationship with Nike. I don't know about that's the
white house here though, right I couldn't. I couldn't answer that.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
That's a secret.
Speaker 5 (15:07):
I noticed when I show up.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
To my locker and I open it up, there's there's
a stuff, and that's it's pretty awesome. Like I said,
Kenny Fard does a great job of taking care of
our staff and our players.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Yeah, we don't run out of gear.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
I didn't used to consider myself a shoe guy, and
now now I got too many.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Shoes without identifying anyone. Were there ever colors that you
just didn't like wearing because you didn't like the colors?
Not here, not Oregon, I'm other schools you've been at,
because some if I had to wear orange, I'll be
honest with you, Burnt or Tennessee orange, I might quit
just for that.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Yeah, I guess I've probably never been that. I've never
been that much of a fashionista. I'm not a big
fan of purple, but beyond that, I'm pretty good with
any color.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
I guess, so light purple probably wouldn't be your jam.
Not much like the U. C. A. Bears. You wouldn't
go coach at UC.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
I would go.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
I'll coach where there's a job. I'm not going to
make my decisions based off of color. But luckily for me,
I found my last job.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
You played at UCA was coach Rble at Florida State.
That's right, and you worked with coach there. What was
he like?
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Yeah, he's awesome, like relentless, you know, works, works his
tail off, extremely intelligent, willing to get in there, and
coach will coach every position on the on the field.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
You know, unbelievable family.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
You know, whenever I work with coach, it's the same
time my wife got diagnosed with cancer and he was
really good for me and my family.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Then I'll run through a couple of them then Coach Saban,
what did you learn from him?
Speaker 5 (16:25):
Consistency?
Speaker 3 (16:27):
You know, the guy's a robot. He every morning he's
rolling in the obvioicely the exact same time. We're gonna
have a staff me in the same time. You know,
his routine was really impressive. To see, whether it's what
he's eating every morning or every lunch, the way he
operates day in and day out was was really impressive.
Coach smart, Yeah, just enthusiasm, passion, intelligence, ability to adapt,
(16:50):
always thought he was on the cutting edge of things
and always looking for an edge.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
I mean, bones is rolling through all these great coaches
that you worked with, like schools, but he's forgetting Sam
Houston State, Well, probably the best school in America.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
About the donut shops in Huntsville, Oh.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
The best, the best, And I think we're cap.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
At a donut shops per town. I think it's gotta
be one of.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
The high What was your I mean, what was that experience?
Like a lot of people are gonna want to hear
about this.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, that's for social Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
So I worked with Casey Keeler was the head coach there,
and that was that was a great coach to be under.
He really gave you an opportunity to figure out how
you want to do things.
Speaker 5 (17:25):
You know, he let his coaches coach.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
He'd push you, he'd questioned you, but he gave you
an opportunity to go, you know, make it what you
wanted to make it. So your dB meeting that day,
your corners meeting that day, it was you know, how
do you want to build it?
Speaker 5 (17:37):
What do you want to look like?
Speaker 3 (17:37):
The drill work you did on the field and you
make some mistakes, but you also learned a lot in
the process. So I love my time there at SAM
and it's you know, it's it. It wasn't the bus
league at that time, but you take some long road trips.
You know, you do hop on a charter bus from
time to time to get the places. And you know,
that's something that I think everybody should experience in their
coaching career.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Going to Sam Houston, keeping it right, I think everybody
would to Sam Houston forever. That's the At some point,
that's all I said. Everybody must go to Sam Houston
State to coach at some point.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Now, I think you know, my wife and I have
this discussion too.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
We met at a restaurant. We worked that out back
steakhouse together. And I think the other thing.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
That everybody should do is some point you should work
in the service industry.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
You should.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
You should get stiffed at some point, you should get
an unbelievable tip. At some point you should, you know,
learn how to you know, make the people at your
table happy and learn how to deal with Okay, the
food came out late or it came out.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
And it's not the waiter's fault, but sometimes you have
to be sometimes like the head coach. I an't always
your fault, but you got to take it and go
and take responsibility.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Can you solve a problem? Can you solve a problem?
Speaker 6 (18:34):
So?
Speaker 3 (18:34):
Uh, that's something else that you know, I'm a big
believer in that everybody should have to do that.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
At some point an eight top when they wanted a
high chair, I waited tables forever, so you know what
I'm talking dude, and they want have you been stiff?
I would be stiff to the point of, you know,
they would do zero zero and leave me a tip
of like how about get a new job?
Speaker 5 (18:52):
Wat watch you know, look both ways when you cross
the streets something like that.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Yes, so that would suck. And then having to clean
the crackers up after a baby just went full high chair.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
That's not the parents fault. But okay, I mean the
baby does that. I want to compare them to do
like it just happens part of the job.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
The hard part.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
About a baby is you know already coming in that
they're not going to order a meal, but you're serving
them anyway, right, so you're not going to get a
great tip from that.
Speaker 5 (19:14):
Let me ask you this, Now that you've been a server,
you good tipper?
Speaker 2 (19:16):
Oh on, two things have happened to me. One I
was a server, so I was a good tipper. I've
been very fortunate in my career. Now that I am
wildly rich. I'll just say it, it's amazing. It's great
because I grew up very poor. I'm I usually tip
like one hundred percent just because of those of those
two reasons. Because I relied on my bills to be
(19:37):
paid by other people, and I needed that blessing from
them in order to just pay my bills. So now
that I have money, I'm glad I serve because I
understand the plight of what the people are going through
serving me.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
One of the greatest feelings in the world is be
able to give somebody a great tip, right and know
how much you probably changed their day and make them
feel better.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
So don't get a twisted though he only gets appetizers.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Do you have Sonics up here?
Speaker 5 (20:05):
I don't know Portland.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Probably the worst is when you go to and I
love Sonic my favorite, and I'm just gonna flex on tips.
It's a very QUI great point and I'm honest about it.
So I love tipping because I needed the tips. So
if I got a Sonic and I get like a
drink or something, and I give them a hundred dollar bill,
and then when they just look at it and don't
don't like give me the extra smile. I get a
little offended. Coach, I'm be honest with you. I need
like that fair thanks, that's fair? Is? I just need
(20:29):
you to because I once dropped a whole trade drinks
on it. And let me tell you this, it's a
bad one. Give me. I want your worst story. I
had a whole trade drinks drinks and probably not really food,
maybe a couple and I walked and I did a
little trip. I dropped it all on a guy at
the table and it was probably a seven or eight
top and spilled it all over him and I was
(20:51):
so embarrassed. I got a a towel and at the
end when he left a tip, he left me a
large tip and said, hey, make sure when someone does
this to you, hopefully you treat them the same way.
Well change my life. I wrote about it my first book,
Change my Life, because I was like, wow, I screwed
up as much as I possibly could have, and this
guy still wanted to make that a learning lesson for
(21:12):
me in a positive way. So miserable day, wonderful outcome.
And I've kept that with me. Did you ever really
screw up waiting tables?
Speaker 3 (21:21):
I think everybody's spilled a drink on someone before. That's
that's certainly bad. I mean, I feel like one of
my worst days and as a server, was I had
to work Super Bowl Sunday and the Super Bowl's going
on and I had like a two hundred dollars bill
and I got stiffed on it on Super Bowl Sunday.
Speaker 5 (21:37):
But that nothing too bad. Nothing you couldn't solve.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
I feel like I should tip them right now just
so you can like.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Give them money.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
Yeah, run and short.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah, no good, thanks. Expectations on the program or high
they should be. Expectations are a wonderful thing because you've
earned them and deserved them. What are the expectations internally?
And what do you tell your team you expect from
them day in and day out.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Yeah, this is going to be that coaching answer that
you probably don't want, but their best. I just want
to our players' best. Whatever this team's capable of, that's
what I want to see him achieve. And I don't
know that we know that until we see what teams
we're gonna be facing and line up across room. But
we expect we step on the field to play the
best game we can possibly play. Hold ourselves to a
higher standard, and again, let the result take care of itself.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
I was looking at the schedule and Maryland is the
team that would be the farthest. But Maryland is here,
which is nice. And you know, with you guys switching conferences,
you really don't have to go that far in your
first season. That's pretty fortunate, right.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Yeah, I think so, Yeah, I think so. I mean
getting to play in the Big ten something's pretty exciting.
We're going have to go to some venues that I've
never been to before. But we'll travel to Michigan, We'll
travel to Indiana, orsue me, Purdue, you know, we'll travel.
I'm trying to think, but no Ruggers, No, no Ruggers, No,
No Maryland, Yeah, Wisconsin. That'll be a fun road trip
(22:51):
for us. So and then everything else is still remotely
close to where we would have been before.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
You're not gonna answer this to I like fe the
answer it, but I'm gonna ask it anyway. You know,
you first couple of games games, it's uh, I forget
who the first I know? Yeah, then it's a Boise
stay that so sure you're getting ready for those, but
you have guys already looking at at the conference game
scouting those teams.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
We all look.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
Ahead, so the summer is a great opportunity to kind
of jump ahead and look and see what's going to
be different that you haven't seen before, what you haven't
faced before, so you can kind of make sure when
when we get the fall camp. Our hope is that
we can kind of put everything in that'll apply to
our teams throughout the season. So you absolutely look ahead
and try to plan for the future. But then when
you get you know, the game prep and game game week,
you're focused on that next team.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Do you do we talked about in helmet communication, when
you guys hold signs up? Do you hold pictures of
things up? We have in the past. You like to
offer one year, I'd like to for us.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
I knew this was coming.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Well, it's just we did a trick play deal with
the team last year. It's pretty cool. They did it,
and they did it. They did it, and I would
like to offer a picture of my head with big
glasses and it's like you want to call the dorky dive.
You want to call like you know, a nerd on
three and it's the one time, one game that's the
sign my head with glasses.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
All right, we'll look into it.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
He gave me the people will call your people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's only one of the plays that has a picture
of my head in Arkansas, the basketball games. I hold
it up. You know, they do that thing. But that
doesn't not really for a play. So I'm offering that
I will not sue you no intellectual property. We're able
to use that one game, even if it's a fake,
even if it's you know, the indicator for the next sign.
(24:26):
You are able to use my head for a sign.
Speaker 5 (24:29):
We'd use it once, if we use it more than
if you.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Use it once. What's your favorite? What? What charity are
you involved in? Here?
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Always yes you it's uh, you know, local cancer Research hospital.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
If it shows up, ten thousand dollars from my pocket,
didn't consider it. It shows up and we see, yeah,
I will donate ten thousand dollars to that charity. And
I think we both win.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Yeah, I think that's the win.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Now. Every time, no times a game, this could be
a really, this could turn it's really specially for kickoff.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
He holds it up for kickoff.
Speaker 5 (25:05):
No, God, I love it. That's awesome. We'll definitely do it.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
I hear. I hear that you're like a foodie. Are
you a cooker?
Speaker 5 (25:12):
I like to cook.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
I'm not great at a lot of meals, but I
like the cook We did steaks last night at the house.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Do you do the whole? Take pride in how you
marinate a steak? Or do you just grill it up?
Speaker 5 (25:23):
No, you have more more.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Grill it up, put the right seasoning on it. It
doesn't take a lot working in steak. Aluse salt and
pepper and and you know you're pretty good. See some
other put butter on there. Yeah, we did garlic butter
last Night's some garlic butter. And yeah, it's more about
making sure it's cooked right.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
What's your go to though?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
When people come to the house, you're like, oh, let me,
let me this is my best meal that I cook someone.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Yeah, I can do steak. I mean that's that's kind
of my steak. Potatoes. I like doing the uh you know,
wrapping the potatoes and aluminum foil, throwing some onions and
stuff inside, cooking it for a long time.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Doing it in the grill of the oven.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Yeah, both, I'll do both. The usually i'll do the
potatoes in the oven, but I've done both. I also
like kialapeno wrap, you know, like stuffed jelapenos with bacon
rapped around it.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
That's hard to be and listen to.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
It's just Jilipinos man here.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
I know. I always feel like I'm you say, how
do you say? Well, I'm from Arkansas, but I'm I
also feel like I'm extremely too Caucasian to accent that
if I don't accent the rest, because I have friends
that are like, hello, my name is Jimmy, would you
like a tottilla? Like that doesn't work. It's hard, like
I get Or when they're talking about the countries for
the soccer and they're like, hey, would you like to
(26:27):
watch soccer? It's gonna be America versus the Yetaguay And
I'm like, that doesn't feel legitimate. I like it, but
to me, I can't do that.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Maybe it's maybe it's because my wife's Cambodian and.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
You know, absolutely okay, with five questions left, coach, uh,
let's go to this. Give me your musical mount Rushmore.
The four artists that you love all time, they'd put
up there.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
This is tough.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
I like Mumford and Sons a lot. Probably throw the
Cranberries on there.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
I know that's kind of.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Wild, one out of nowhere.
Speaker 5 (26:58):
I like.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
I like the Crammers now. I don't know if they
have enough bangers, but.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
But they got like three all time all time Yeah, classic.
Speaker 5 (27:06):
Exactly, that's great.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (27:08):
Fleetwood Mac would probably.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Be in there, and they're kind of that same category.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
They don't have a million, but they got some really
good ones.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
You don't want to do a Fleetwood Max song.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
I can sure you can go your wrong way and
then I don't know, I'd probably go something new. You know.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I went to a Zach Bryant concert recently and he
was unbelievable, so i'd probably throw him on there.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Is it weird having bosses older than you?
Speaker 5 (27:32):
No, I think that's normal, right, yeeah.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Bosses are usually older than you, Okay, except you. But
you're bossing people Okay, by this, you're bossing people around
that are older than you.
Speaker 5 (27:41):
Yeah, not really, I don't.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
I think if you k watching our program, you'd see
we work really well together.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
It's not about just bossing. Sometimes you got to.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
Make the toughest yeah.
Speaker 5 (27:49):
But yeah, yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
I don't feel like we're bossing a bunch of people
around here.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
That's why I'd say too, but that'd be awesome. I
guess I kind of was it though for a lot.
I was like twenty three running something but not like this.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
And you're kind of my boss too, and I'm older
than you, so yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
It's coach. We're like, we're dying breed, like youngsters that
run everything.
Speaker 5 (28:05):
Yeah, were agent quick.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Yeah, these kids don't even know.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
I don't know anything.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Coaches left.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I have four boys. One of them says he's going
to be a receivers coach for the Dallas Cowboys and
that is his peak, Like that's what he wants to do.
What would you tell like a kid, like, if you
want to be a coach, this is where you start.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Ye start coaching as fast as you can start coaching.
It's it's more about getting your feet wet. You don't
want to be bad at your first job, right, so
you got to go somewhere where you can get the
opportunity to do it. And it doesn't really matter where
you're at. It's about getting out there and learning. My
first coaching job was park Hill South High School. I
was an elementary pe teacher and then I coached high
school football and I started coaching receiver. I played defense
(28:45):
my whole career. I was coaching wide outs first, So
I think it's first about just getting there and getting
your feet wet, and then don't worry about the next
step until you've done a great job at the step
you're at.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
That's you have something interesting. You had never played wide receiver,
but you coached it. I have friends that are teacher
or something like. They're like, I don't know anything about
World Wars to say, cram like before they have to
give their lesson. When you switch to coach wide receivers,
are you just learning as much as you can before
you go and take that job.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Yeah, you spend all your time studying. We did a
lot of blocking drills at park Hill South. I always
told her. I always told her white outs, the catching
the ball was a privilege. We'll do that before and
after practice, but during practice, we're gonna be really good
at blocking.
Speaker 5 (29:20):
So I'm sure they didn't love that.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
That's good. Let's do Mount rushmore. Favorite athletes growing up
when you were a kid, Who were your favorite four?
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Yeah, Derek Thomas for sure would have been KC Chiefs.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
Michael Jordan for sure. Probably Nolan Ryan.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Yeah, I grew up in a really cool era with
the Chiefs, so like Neil, Smith would probably be on
that list as well.
Speaker 5 (29:47):
So I was a big Chiefs fan. BoJack Actually, I'd
say bo Jackson gotta go bow the Royal.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
We just cut a new head into the mount Rush five.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Yeah, okay, that's all right if you have to remove
Neil and throw Bow in there.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
I like them both, but both Sorry Neil, you've been almon, Yes,
but the.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
Baseball batswing after a sack was the coolest thing ever.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Did you Did you have one of those as the linebacker?
Speaker 5 (30:06):
No? No, I just ran back to the huddle.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Man, what would you have a sack? But what would
you do now if you could have like that?
Speaker 5 (30:12):
Yeah, run back to the huddle.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Yeah, same thing is that? What you tell your guys too,
is run back to No.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
I mean you have to be you. I always tell
him this.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
You don't want to get a penalty for celebrating on
our team. That's that's going to equal a lot of
running the next day. So we don't do that.
Speaker 5 (30:25):
We don't. We don't punish ourselves.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
My final question has to do with the rule change. It.
I think that college football should make and I would
like to hear your opinion on it. So he scored touchdown,
it's time to kick the extra point. I believe the
person that scored the touchdown should have the opportunity to
kick the extra point and if made or it's worth
two points.
Speaker 5 (30:48):
Yeah, that's an interesting thought. I'd have to put some
thought into it.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
I am exactly sometim.
Speaker 5 (30:54):
It's going to make you.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Think more about who you want to score your touchdown,
right right right, Like you know, you get down to
the two yards, we don't have to Your kicker can
kick for what for an extra point?
Speaker 5 (31:03):
For one more point?
Speaker 3 (31:04):
I think you're going to be trying to force the
ball over guy. That's kind of decent foot.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
And what about any kickover fifty being worth four points?
Speaker 5 (31:11):
Yeah, I'm down for that's yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Yeah, these are all good rules.
Speaker 5 (31:14):
Yeah, you get to the.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Front and the real one would be sensors and balls,
so you would know if the ball actually crossed the
plane because if the cameras can't see, but if the
knee is down, uh, but.
Speaker 5 (31:24):
That's probably coming right.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
I think you're you're ahead of your time there. But
I think that's that's something that will exist here sooner
than later.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Coach. We really appreciate the time. Uh, what you've done
here is amazing. Final bonus question when you're the defensive coordinator. Yeah, yeah,
you added an extra amount more. Yeah, that's when I
felt like we were open to another question. You cheated,
We cheat. I've Whenever you're in DC at Georgia and
you guys are killing it, obviously, how quick does it
all happen that you're the head coach here? Is it?
(31:51):
Is it a call and well we're off?
Speaker 3 (31:53):
Yeah, it's fast, it's fast. We're in the process of
recruiting at the time. So I was actually in Miami
when the when the process kind of got start it.
And then on the flight back, you know from Miami, Uh,
it kind of even went faster.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
A long night and could you believe it?
Speaker 3 (32:07):
No, I still pinch myself that I get to do
what I get to do. I was really content, really
happy where I was at and uh, enjoying it. But
I never thought this would be as fulfilling as it's been.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
We really appreciate the time. I'll be watching it for
my head. Do it in like one of the games.
It don't matter too, like it doesn't you know, as
long as this national TV, national championship game, why would
you offer that?
Speaker 5 (32:26):
What you said, Yeah, it doesn't matter as long as
it's national.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
National TV and national are or maybe collegetball playoff or
Ohio State doesn't matter as long as one of those games.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
But maybe we can do like regular season ten thousand
and then if we do want to playoff, that would.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Be in kids. This is called a negotiating that I
would do, and especially if everybody that you had t
shirt night where everybody had my head on it.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, that probably costs a little bit.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Yeah, I probably cost a little bit. Yeah, I hear that. Coach,
amazing what you've done here.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
Thank you for the time, absolutely, thank you, love fun,
appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
All right, thanks to Coach Landing. I will have the video.
It'll be up soon.
Speaker 5 (33:02):
It'll be up today.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
It'll be up now because we're putting this up Friday.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Oh oh, it'll be up now.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Yeah listening.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah, so there was the reason we shouldn't put this
up today. Friday? Wink? Nope, Friday wink?
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Okay, good, Hey, will you guys tag Sam Houston State
on that? No, tag him? I don't know. Shout out.
That's pretty cool, man. We talked about Sam Houston State,
little old bear Cat.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
You did. I don't think you knew except Kevin told
you you put it in.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
The pres he was he was like an assistant receiver.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
No I know, but I think didn't he remind you, like,
I don't forget Sam Houston State. Yeah, and you're like, well,
I didn't read the note.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
He didn't tell me that. Yeah, it's still cool.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
So yeah, okay, cool, Let's take a break. We will
come back. A couple things I wanted to mention. First
of all, an update on our poker player. He didn't
win any money. He lasted. I think there were ten
thousand people he lasted into the three thousand left. Yeah,
like you'd be like seventy percent of the field.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
It's really good.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Did not win us any money though we were on
a group. Did you see me leave the group thread?
Speaker 1 (34:03):
No? No, no, no no no.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
As soon as he lost, I left him. There's too
much chitty chat in there, and I kep getting little bubbles.
I don't like bubbles on my stuff. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
I felt bad too, because it says like red or
scene or whatever by whoever. And when he was in play,
it was like everyone that respond look, look, look. As
soon as he said I'm out, I just ignored every Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
I thought would be like a text where it's Bobby's
left the message.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
I just left, you know. I was like, no, I
never said that five.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Thousand, but he uh man to the top three thousand ish?
Good run did not make it. If he came back again,
I said he was gonna do it next year? Would
you reinvest?
Speaker 1 (34:36):
Yeah, because he seems like a smart player from all
the updates he had, like he was he had a
good role. But once those blinds get big.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Like, well you have to have money. Yeah, you got
to build up kevin'rehaking your head.
Speaker 6 (34:45):
No, yeah, I don't believe him. I think I think
next year you would the tone in your voice. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
It was fun though, to follow him right bones, like,
just to kind of see where he was. I didn't
realize they were ten thousand players, Like I know he
told us that, but then you but.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
He told us that, So that's when you should have realized.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
But I didn't even That's when I got out how
crazy that is.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
I would I would hop in again with him. Yeah,
he made it. I made it. Beat seventy percent of
the field. I think he needed to go cut that
in half again to fifteen hundred to make money. I
think he's a pretty good player, so I would reinvest
with them if he was doing it.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Imagine if you had good cards, because a.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Lot it's not really it's about the cards, But it's
not really about the cards. It's about the decisions you
make with the cards that you have.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Right, And I feel like he did that this time around,
Like made really good decisions with mediocre cards, because.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
I didn't say had mediocre cards. Because sometimes you'll get
you'll hip pocket kings and you'll understand you probably have
to fold kings. That's two kings, and you're yeah that
nobody else can see if there are like three diamonds
on the board and you know there's just a lot.
So I didn't see the cards, so I can't call
that situation. I'm gonna assume everybody gets equally good and
bad cards, and it's decisions made with the cards you
have versus what the people are doing. Yeah, he did
(35:50):
not win. I would reinvest with them. I'm in again,
he'sn't asking right now, but yeah, do you think you'll
do it?
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Again.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
Yeah, I think I think it paid for half his
entry fee. Yeah, heck yeah, I should.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Go play it.
Speaker 4 (36:02):
And this is what he does. It's not like a hobby, you.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Know, right, do they have crap? No, it is kind
of a side.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
I think it is a hobby. I don't think it's
professional poker player.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
He has a job.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
He taught people how to do how to play what
it was. Yeah, but he has a job. He's like
in media or like market marketing. Market Yeah yeah, righty right,
it's marketing, okay. John Lepley update. John Lepley is the
minor league baseball player that I texted. Remember I was
like the only person that ever give me autograph as
a kid. Yes, I've heard nothing.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
He played for the Arkansas Travelers.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
I think he just changed his number because it came
back green. So I think we find his his page again.
What was it?
Speaker 1 (36:39):
A LinkedIn?
Speaker 2 (36:40):
A LinkedIn with the email? I think it is an email,
the LinkedIn email now instead of text it. So the
update there is I've got nothing back, but I'm going
to email that now. Something can find that page again.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
His LinkedIn?
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Yeah, and I'll just email that on there. I've got
three updates. Another update DeAndre Hopkins.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
Yeah DM.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
Oh so Katie's advice was to follow him, but just
be cool about it and then maybe he'd see it
and follow back. Right. Oh, no, he doesn't follow me back.
I'm about I'm about to unfollow him, dude. So he's
the receiver for the Titans that I met when I
was on a work trip in France, of all places,
and I d M him.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
He DMed me.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
Back, and then I was like, what do I do?
So I followed him. He did not follow me back.
We are not going steady. Best case scenario is that
he saw it right away and didn't want to be
too eager and waited and you're planning these these ultra
positive seeds in my head that are not going to
ever grow anything.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Just trying to help.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Okay, you find you find it over there, Kevin.
Speaker 4 (37:40):
He saw his last name.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
I think it's l E P L E Y.
Speaker 4 (37:43):
He is a is it a Wine and Spirits guy?
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Now? Yeah, that is him and spirits. I found him,
So what he's doing? Now?
Speaker 4 (37:50):
Hook it up, Savannah Georgia.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
I'm up for auction now. They just put it up.
It is the I don't even want to say what
it is because I don't want somebody eat me on.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
It something you're trying to get.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Yeah, okay, if everybody listening promises they won't go get.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
It, No, you can't promise that, but I but I
want to know what it is, so tell.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Us come look at it.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
I'm on my way.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
I think it would be cool to have, although I
don't know what I would do with it.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
But that's everything you have. What do you do with it?
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Okay? You need it? Okay, but should I share what
it is? Or will a listener take it? And should I? Just?
Should I get it and then say what it is after?
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Yes, get it first. Don't let anyone the risk of
people taking this is not you don't want that, and
you need this.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
Do you know what it is? Kiddy?
Speaker 3 (38:48):
Have people guess?
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Do you know what it is?
Speaker 5 (38:51):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Wait, I could probably look and see what it is.
It's not an eBay loser.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
I think it's safe to say.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
No one we'll ever get reads. You do it because
read and I read ELPs we do the count together.
I always see the stuff that he's looking at.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
Oh, I always.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Say stuff reed's looking at too, Bose, I'm telling you
anime girls and bikinis.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
No, I'm very passionate about this. I think this is
something that you definitely need.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
It'd be cool to have. I just don't want to
say because I want to beat me for and I
don't think the bidding is going to go way up
unless I I don't think so either. Highlight the fact
that it's not okay, okay, And then the only other
thing that I was going to mention before we take
a break, and was it Caitlyn Clark set the record
for assist in a game period of any player.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
Was that last night?
Speaker 2 (39:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:36):
I watched it.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
They lost, but she had nineteen assists Wednesdaynesday night. But
so when we record this part, yes, she had nineteen assists.
That's not like a rookie record that she's breaking. Caitlyn
Clark sets the WNBA record with the nineteen assists and
lost to Wings. Caitlyn Clark broke the record. They lost,
And what's good about breaking this record? And in a loss?
If you break a points record and a loss, it's like, well,
(39:57):
stop being a ball hog. Maybe you could have won
breaking an assist record, it's like you're trying everything to
get everybody involved. They lost. It's the last game league
wide prior to the month long Olympic break. Speaking with
slight bias, I think she is now a top fifteen
player in the WNBA period, not just rookies. I think
she is. She's had rest, they haven't played back to backs.
(40:18):
They went straight from the end of college to draft
game start, no break. She's now thumping people. A rookieer.
She no doubt she went Rookie of the Year, and
angelids me second, she should not. It should not even
be close. But she's killing folks now. And imagine a
month break. I did sell the autograph on this. I
(40:41):
bought the autograph for four to fifty, put it on eBay.
I knew it would go off for more than that.
Read what to go for?
Speaker 5 (40:46):
That's what I'm looking up right now.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
You got what sold for? I think it was like
five ninety eight, close to it.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Close good.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
That's a good little profit.
Speaker 4 (40:55):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
Just so. I knew that card shop had messed up
by leaving at priced at four to fifty, so bought
it for four fifty.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
You're like a flipper here, a card flipper.
Speaker 2 (41:03):
I don't feel like I can do that enough. I
just felt like that was something I saw the value. Yeah,
but then I got nervous because like the day of
there was like one bid, but they all just weaged
to pounce. I got twenty four points ten for nineteen shooting.
She had nineteen.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
That's crazy. And stylish passes too. I didn't sign the back.
I mean we watched.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Who say stylish passage? Yeah, what do you mean? I
don't know papal to.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Is there a word for it? Like, what's the word
for it? Where you throw cool passes under your legs
behind the back, Like, I don't know. Style? Man, it
was with style, but it's you know what. Though I
hadn't watched her play yet, and me and the boys
we sat down and watched the whole game. No, we
saw the Iowa game.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
Was she chunking threes? Yeah, she had any of them.
Speaker 1 (41:47):
But but she would get she would get covered quickly
and then she would pass it off and then they
would hit threes.
Speaker 2 (41:52):
But stylish and.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
She's no regular threes. Stylish passes, Oh dude, And she's fast.
She's fast. I didn't realize how fast she was.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
It's bulldog, man, she'll fight you too. Yeah, I'm a
big fan. I don't know if I've mentioned that over
the past ever in the history of this show. But
I'm a big fan. Okay, we're gonna take one more break.
We'll be back, all right. To wrap up a couple
of topics I'd like to have here, Brandon Ayuk requested
a trade from the forty nine Ers. The highest paid
player as far as wide receivers goes Justin Jefferson thirty
(42:23):
five million a year. A J. Brown's at number two.
What's crazy is NBA salaries next to NFL salaries. Like
you could be a middle of the road NBA player,
like a seventh man and make what Justin Jefferson makes
a year. Now, granted it's only five spots, or even starting,
it's five spots versus twenty two, so that does make sense.
(42:44):
But Justin Jefferson, A J. Brown, Monroe, Saint Brown, Tyreek Kill,
Jalen Water. Those are the top five. I could probably
list you somebody from the Timberwolves. It comes off the bench,
plays three minutes a game that makes equally what these
guys make. But where does Brandon Ayuck fall into these receivers?
Is he a top ten receiver? No, you don't think so.
Speaker 1 (43:05):
I would do twenty five.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
I didn't ask you how much you would spend because
you don't have.
Speaker 1 (43:09):
No top twenty five.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
Oh yeah, we were talking about money. No ranking the
top twenty way better than top twenty five, I think so.
Speaker 1 (43:20):
I mean I would say not Deebo Samuel Brandon ayut,
I know.
Speaker 2 (43:25):
I'm familiar with the two names and the different letters.
Speaker 1 (43:27):
And different making sure.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
I would say right around in the top nine, ten
to eleven range, I would say too when given the opportunity,
and he was given opportunities. He played extremely effective and
at times uh sensational. But again that ball, they only
have one ball, and they've got McCaffrey, Debo Kittle. I
mean what you got through all the way, he was
(43:51):
like the fourth weapon there. I think he's probably in
that eight nine. I think he's a top ten receiver.
Speaker 4 (43:59):
You, Yeah, right on the edge right there.
Speaker 2 (44:01):
Justin Jefferson's better, Jamar Chase. Jamar Chase is better, A J.
Brown's better. The fact that A mon ros Saint Brown
played with the broken the rib separated along Seid crazy.
Have you guys watched receivers on Netflix?
Speaker 4 (44:14):
No yet haven't.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
I mean I didn't finish quarterbacks, so I'm thinking, like,
why am I going to like receivers.
Speaker 4 (44:20):
I'm gonna try it.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
Tyreek Hill is probably three in my list though, if
we'd list him in order. So those guys, DeVante Adams
just has nobody throwing the ball, but sure it's still
a monster. Cooper Cup, Yeah, it just hurt. It feels
like he's always hurt, doesn't it?
Speaker 6 (44:35):
Just last year, the last couple of years ever since
they won Super Bowl?
Speaker 2 (44:39):
Okay, what about like a Devanta Smith.
Speaker 1 (44:43):
Just hasn't proven himself on the thing. Really middle of
the road. A lot of hype coming out of college,
but middle of the road.
Speaker 2 (44:50):
Yeah, a lot of hype, you know why he Yeah,
what about like a Nico Collins.
Speaker 6 (44:56):
See that's where I think where he is in that
second Yeah, right there, right there in the Smith and
Collin's area.
Speaker 2 (45:02):
Uh. Speaking of football NFL, the Bears, everybody's wondering because
those rookies hadn't signed deals yet. They reach their deals
with Kayleb Williams and Roboons, which is good because now
camp starts. That'd be awesome to be starting quarterback.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
That'll be amazing.
Speaker 2 (45:18):
Yes, Like what I wonder is this is when my
head really goes with being a quarterback in the NFL.
Are they like, oh man, this is gonna hurt every
day they going? Or are they like this is gonna
be so much fun? Or are they like I'm really
prepared and yeah, I hope. Like when I play the
softball game, I knew I could probably tear, I could
probably pull in hamstring or something. Finding stretch right or
(45:41):
I have tend and eyes on my feet which I
could see rounding third to one point, I pulled up
a little bit. I was like, yeah, So I'm like,
I'm probably gonna hurt myself a little bit, but I
can get there. Like do they think that every game
or is it just like fun?
Speaker 1 (45:52):
So are you talking about like a rookie or like
just a starting quarterback?
Speaker 2 (45:56):
Like do they go every I'm going, oh man, this
is gonna hurt. Let's see if we can or is
it like they're just looking forward to it they don't
feel anything.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
I feel like every game is like, ooh, this is
a chance for me to be like a highlight an
awesome star, Like this is another another chance for me
to prove how awesome I am.
Speaker 6 (46:13):
I feel like a lot of them are like I've
been the best athlete my entire life. And then you
get to the pros, it's like, oh, this is gonna
be really I feel.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
Like everyone's like, oh this is gonna hurt. Yeah, going
into every game like how do I not feel pain? See?
Speaker 1 (46:26):
I wonder what the rookies think because they never get
hit in camp and then their first game in the NFL, Like,
what's Caleb Williams thinking like, oh boy, like when I
get hit.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
That's a great point because even in practice in the NFL,
they're not letting their their AA games get hard. Their
first real, real, real hit is going to be in
not not even in camp, It'll be and uh I
was gonna say spring training.
Speaker 1 (46:45):
I guess preseason.
Speaker 2 (46:46):
Ok.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
Yeah, yeah, because they play even if.
Speaker 2 (46:50):
They're doing the two teams with each other, there's those
defensive guys still are not going to crush therect franchise quarterbacks. Yeah.
Jordan Addison arrested on suspicion of DUI dumb dumb And
then I played college football. I played first time this morning?
Speaker 1 (47:04):
When was it?
Speaker 2 (47:05):
Okay? So I've only played once and I'm Arkansas and
we're like eighty two. We're okay, We're good enough to
build off of. I've played Madden so long the gameplay
is similar, it's not the same. So it's definitely not
a repurposed Madden, which is what it used to be
back in the day, so it is a bit different.
I would say the gameplay itself, if Madden is the baseline,
(47:28):
we'll say Madden is an A. I would say this
is an A minus gameplay. However, everything around it is
a freaking A plus plus plus, from the recruiting to
the portal, to the crowd, the different the announce The
game is so good only one day of play, watching
a lot of TikTok videos, it's so good. The game
(47:50):
play itself is good, but everything around it makes it
so much fun.
Speaker 1 (47:53):
Who's the announcer, Herbstreet?
Speaker 2 (47:55):
Like, I got a pipeline. My pipeline is Central Texas
up through Arkansas, and so that's where I get a
lot of my recruits from.
Speaker 4 (48:02):
That's detail.
Speaker 6 (48:04):
It's a detailed I can't wait to hear you ask
these college coaches as we continue too much access.
Speaker 4 (48:08):
Hey what you guys, some recruiting tips for.
Speaker 2 (48:10):
Me exactly because that'll be the next like talk shop,
you know, I'll tell you some stuff and working for me.
I had a dude for fifty for fifty points. I
sent the house, offered eight scholarships blindly, without even recruiting.
I didn't know what I was doing, and so I
was just like that kid looks good. Offered eight scholarships
and I hit one of them accepted immediately because I
offered him so early. And it was a three star
(48:31):
kid with an X over the diamond, meaning he wasn't
as good as the one what he I know, But
I'm loyal, all right, I'm riding, all right, riding with him.
All Right, We're out, Thank you everybody. We're gonna be
back early next week. We have an interview with Steve
Young coming up.
Speaker 4 (48:47):
Awesome.
Speaker 2 (48:48):
It was awesome, cool, he's the greatest. I think he's
the new leader in the clubhouse. Great skuy Ever oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
ever Yeah.
Speaker 1 (48:57):
I mean I came home told my wife every single
story or he told us, and I'm sure she didn't
care one bit.
Speaker 2 (49:02):
But it was awesome. Steve Young will be next week.
We have even like the Dylan Gabriel interview at Oregon. Yeah,
we have so much. We just don't want to give
it to you now because we need content sometimes. Hope.
You guys have a great weekend and anything I'm missing.
We felt felt pretty good. Yeah all right, We will
see you guys next week, both to us letting alright,
bye every buddy.
It's a podcast call twenty five whist stuck.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Your football and they go whistle. So, yeah, it's too.
Speaker 1 (00:10):
Bad, But what did you expect.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
It's a podcast call twenty five whistles twenty wine.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Hello, welcome to another episode will blow the whistle. I
got to thank you, thank you. We have been on
the road a lot, about ten thousand miles over the
past four or five days. Going to Oregon was super cool.
It I'm gonna be honest with you. It did a
long trip. Yeah, there's a reason I don't go up
there every day. It just took a long time. It
(00:38):
took four and a half hours from Chicago.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Why would you go there every day?
Speaker 2 (00:42):
It's awesome, but you're right, I would like to go
up there more. But yeah, we went up for Oregon
to go hang out, and we're gonna actually start with
the interview here in just a second. I'll tell you
where I got irritated and I shouldn't, but on my
Instagram I have posted a video just raw pictures of
some of our trip in Oregon. I'm throwing the football,
(01:02):
I'm sitting with Coach Landing. But the third slide in
the carousel is of me bench pressing, and I'm bitch
pressing two green plates and those are forty five's there.
Their plates are green and yellow like their colors. So
the forty fives are green and so uh. And their
linebacker Jeffrey Bossa was spotting me. He was like Mark
(01:25):
working out with me, not working just whatever. He was
helping me. And you see in the video. I get
the weight up and I wasn't cold, but I was coolish.
It's not like we were there a long We stretched our
arms and didn't not much. George Burge, who's a friend
of mine, country artists, George Burg. No, well he's not
the hater, okay, George burg has I got my mind
(01:47):
on you guy, You on my mind. He writes two
twenty five like nothing, which is what that rep was.
It was two twenty five. Some jerk one Alex Underscorehindron
writes one forty five like nothing. Those plates are twenty
five vers.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Oh yeah, here, come on.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I know I'm pretty immune the people online saying things
about me, because it's happened my whole career. I was
pissed when I saw this. He doesn't know, No, it's wrong.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
And the greens were forty five's yeah, and the yellows
were thirty fives, I believe, right.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
I don't know if that's true.
Speaker 4 (02:21):
I think those were five fives.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Oka, but the greens were forty five. I never saw
thirty fives. I think they had forty.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
No, they just had twenty five and then little ten
pound plates.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
They don't do that over there. I don't do thirty five.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
I was so insulted at this dude who knows nothing,
Alexandro and you piece of garbage. Oh wow, wowow right,
he knows nothing. And if I'm going to push that
hard on one forty five, I don't think i'd be
flexing that on camera.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Yeah, yeah, I would, that's fair, but not you.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
One forty five like nothing. Those are twenty five platers,
I said, no, they aren't, they're forty fives. They're green,
like the green means anything. Yeah. Yeah, I just wanted
to say that I was insulted by that.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
You should be because you you lifted that. We were
all there, we saw it, and we're proud of you.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
People tell me all the time, you're not funny, Okay,
you're ugly, okay, whatever, Okay, sure, I guess because that's opinion.
I am on camp. This is not ais this is
not a deep fake, and you don't know what you're
talking about. Stupid guy in the internet.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
He's obviously he never worked out there.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
You have obviously point.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yeah, that's a good point. So yeah, no, I wrote that.
If you go to that, I prefer a few replied
to his stupid idiot.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
I learned to count.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Stupid idiot anyway. I was very insulted, and I don't
get insulted that.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
Much, and usually you get insulted by dumb things. That
one that's valid. That's validated.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
All he has to do is ask Dylan Gabriel.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
We got around, Oh that's right. Yeah, you won't hear
that in this one, but you're right. Dylan Gabriel, HEI'SMA
front runner who we talked to as well. I was like, hey,
I heard you do up a two forty five, which
means they were talking all about it. I heard the
I'm waiting for an offer. I keep waiting for coach call.
We had a great time in Oregon, and we're going
to start with that interview. Uh, this is our sit
(04:03):
down with Oregon head football coach Dan Lanning, which, by
the way, it is weird when a head football coach
at a major school that's a National Championship caliber program,
is younger than you are.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
Yeah. Yeah, and making a lot more money than I am.
That everyone. That's everyone.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
I noticed he didn't say you, he said I.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I was about to be insulted. Dan Lane was awesome.
I mean, it was so great again, but it was
a little weird because he's younger. That's so cool. Imagine
being in your thirties and being the head coach, or
imagine like Sean McVay with the RAM Yeah, yeah, exactly,
which but I feel like a college program you have
more responsibility than an NFL program as far as things
(04:46):
you have to do because NFL there's a lot to do,
but it's pro it's just football.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
College.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
You have to like cultivate relationships, call kids, make sure
they go special, raise money. Yes, I feel like that job,
like the surface area. There's more to do and so
it'd be harder to do if you're younger and I
l no.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah. He's coached under Nick Saban Kirby smart coach novel
and at Florida State. He's twenty two and five and
two years as Oregon's head coach. His team has the
fourth best odds to win the championship this year. According to Vegas,
he was awesome, though very cool. He's big and not
think he was that big. And if he threw up
two green plates, I'd be like, shout out. I wouldn't
be like those are those are twenty five's. This dude, though,
(05:30):
went straight at me and I was I was offended.
I say, here he is head coach Dan Lanning, coach, Thanks,
appreciate you being here. Actually we're here. I guess you're
already here, so I appreciate us to be in here.
Speaker 5 (05:43):
Right, yea, yes for coming.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
I got a couple questions for you when I was
looking at kind of your history. You went from being
a GA obviously to a position coach, but then back
to a GA at Bama. Was that a tough call
for you to take a step back but the program
was a step up?
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Yeah, it really wasn't. I knew I had more to learn.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Certainly financially it didn't make a lot of sense, but
from a professional development standpoint, it was definitely the right move.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
I was with coach Prime. We played a softball game
to the other a couple days ago, and he was
saying some really wonderful things about you. Now earlier in
the year, whenever that before that game that blew up
and I did not expect coach He was like, where
are you going? I said, we're going to see coach Michael.
You're gonna love him. You're gonna love him. I guess
I didn't know that he he loved you.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
I think I think both of us have a lot
of admiration and respect for each other. I think something
completely got blown, blown out of proportion. I certainly appreciate
him and what he's done for the game, and it's
hard not to appreciate what he did as a player.
Speaker 5 (06:41):
It's unbelievable what he did as a.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Player, and now to see what he's done for the
game of football, it's it's a lot of fun to watch.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
You're not even forty yet, correct now, Yeah, so you've
you've got to be playing a TAA college football.
Speaker 5 (06:53):
Not not yet.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
You know, we just had a walk through this morning,
had some guys on the field, and there's a lot
of a lot of chatter going on. So the guys
will come over to the house later at night and
maybe we'll look it up. But I doubt I get
on the sticks.
Speaker 5 (07:04):
It's been a long time.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
What was the last stick you got on?
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Then, whenever COVID happened and we were all kind of
locked in our basements, I used to tell my wife,
I'm going downstairs to recruit and I hop I'd hop
on Call of Duty and try to play these guys
in Call of Duty.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
That was like my last.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Experience, and I got smoked. So sometimes I put my
son on there. He'd play, and I would be on
the headset talking like I I was the guy, you know,
backing it up.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
The problem with the headset though, because I would play
a little bit with like randos that you just link
up with. But it's like twelve year olds who dominate
me then make me feel worse as a human than
I already do.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Yeah, it's it's embarrassing when you're getting smoked in that game.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
So this Oregon it's awesome. I mean it's everything you
could want, as far as like facilities, as far as
the resources that go into it. People love you here.
You've been killing it as a head coach. But I
assume even as good and as great as you do,
there's always that pressure because they're providing the resources for you.
To keep knocking it out of the park. Is that true?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Yeah, there's always pressure with any job, and you know,
I hope there's pressure.
Speaker 5 (08:08):
It means you're not in the right spot right. You
want to You don't want to be comfortable, and we
all have goals and aspirations.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
This is certainly a place that you can accomplish them,
but it's not supposed to be easy. So it's fun
to be in a place where we want to compete.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Do you look at the preseason rankings? No? You already
say no, but you care? See I hear you? Who cares? Amen?
But like one eye, you like blink at it for
a second just to see.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
No, No, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
I mean the opinions of everyone outside of this room,
no offense, the opinions you guys, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Ourds are great though, you know we have a really
good life.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
Good opinions.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Well sure, but I'll tell you this, we don't pay
a lot of attention to them because they don't affect
the outcome on the field. You know, the people on
this program, they're going to affect the outcome on the field.
So we try to focus on us twelve teams in
the playoffs this year doesn't really affect you guys, because
you guys are always in the mix anyway. So your
thoughts on the spansion of the playoffs, because it feels
like to me, Oregon just got to play a couple
(09:02):
more games.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Now.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
I think it's great for college football from the standpoint,
there's gonna be a little bit more interest at the
end of the season than there has been. But the end,
the goal hasn't changed for us.
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Just when how much do you say when it comes
to what uniforms are going to wear or what uniforms
are going to be created? Do you ever see one
that doesn't even get to the player's eyes because you're
like that one is not good?
Speaker 5 (09:24):
Sometimes there's a no.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
But but once once we have the go, that's kind
of where I step out, right, so I get to
see them in advance. But our creative team, our design group,
they do they do an unbelievable job and then they
get a lot of feedback from our players, right, Kenny
Farr does a great job working with Nike, and you
know those guys that create some some awesome get ups
for our guys. But a lot of times we get
(09:47):
to the game on Saturday, when I walk out the tunnel,
that's when I see it the first time. No, way,
not the very first time. But like, but I'm not
that week. I'm a lot more worried.
Speaker 5 (09:55):
About the opponent than what we're gonna win the game.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I feel like my number one party be Jersey Jersey.
So do you have like a guy that will say
to you, hey, this looks great? This does it? Is
there a an aesthetics head of aesthetics here?
Speaker 3 (10:09):
No, we have an equipment manager, you know, and he's
on top of it. He does as good a job
as anybody in the nation. In fact, I think he's
the best in the nation when it comes to piecing
this together. It's Kenny Fahr. And again he does a
great job of meeting with our players, collaborating with them,
collaborating with Nike to create some really cool setups for
our guys.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Coach of the network loves highlighting your excitement and you
pumping up the team. And there's always a video montage
of somewhere during the game. Do you sometimes go home
and watch and be like, home, man, like go too hard?
I went way too hard, you know.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
I don't normally watch the TV copy you know, at
times we might go back and like peel through it
for you know, to make sure we don't put any
signals on film or things like that. But I don't
spend a lot of time watching that, and I'm never
gonna be I'm never gonna apologize for passion. I think
the players are going to match your energy and enthusiasm,
So that's something I always want to carry on the field.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
You mentioned you're not gonna watch signal, possibly because signals
could be out there that that's not really a thing anymore.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
I think it'll still exist in college football, just because
there's still gonna be some teams that carry tempo. And
if you're you know, reliant to just giving the call
and one to one guy in the field, you're probably
going to be short. You know, you want eleven guys
playing the same call on both sides of the ball.
So at times, I think signals will still exist.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Are you advocating now that every player has communication to
their helmet, because that's what I hear.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Yeah, i'd be, I'd be. I'd be great with that.
There's probably some guys that there's such thing as too
much information too.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
When you get on the field, your best players. You
just wanted to be able to play.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
But yeah, I think there's probably a benefit to just
to where everybody can hear the call, and that would
that would certainly help things.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
What if everybody ELSEO could talk back? Because I worked
at Hobby Lobby for that and they gave me a speaker.
I was on the thing all the time and I
didn't need to say anything.
Speaker 3 (11:51):
You ever been on alwaukie talkie where the other guy's
always talking and you can.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Ever, Yeah, that was me at Hobby Lobby. They would
be like, hey, go down and set up this display,
and I was like, hey, guys, if you could three like,
I'll three like she's got to you know that kind
of stuff. So yeah, that probably wouldn't be good right.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
And not be a good thing.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Do you ever feel like you you'll change your offense
or defense based on personnel that comes in if the
talent is so strikingly Let's say, you know, you run
wide open, but let's say this guy comes in and
is a straight ahead runner and maybe doesn't need it
as wide open? Will you change your offense at all
for that?
Speaker 5 (12:26):
Absolutely?
Speaker 3 (12:27):
I think a coach's job is to match the you know,
the talents of his personnel. And that's you know, going
back to being a high school coach, I think you
have to look and see what your players do best
and try to make sure you're utilizing their talents.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
When you were your first GA job, what was the
goal for you?
Speaker 1 (12:43):
There?
Speaker 2 (12:43):
Was it to be a head coach at a major university?
Speaker 5 (12:47):
Yeah? I mean that that was a goal early on.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
But you know, early in my career, I think I
figured out just be the best at where I'm at
and try to do jobs that nobody else wants to do.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
When you're defensive cornator Georgia, I hated you, man, I
hated you. Who's your team Arkansas?
Speaker 5 (12:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Yeah, I hate get Yeah. And you know, not every
O C or d C is known, especially when you're
under somebody like a Kirby Smart or a Nick Saban,
two guys that you've worked with, right, both those guys.
I hated you because there was there was no opportunity.
It was ugly when you have the players like that
(13:20):
and you're playing I don't know, let's let's just make
up a team Arkansas and they're pretty weak. Do you know,
like this game? All we have to do if we
do exactly what we've set forward. It is going to
be over. They are not going to get anything. You know.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
The great thing about football is you never really feel
that way. And I get nervous before every single game.
Certainly we have more talent than than Arkansas when we
played them.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
But Arkansas, No, no, we're talking about hypothetical Arkansas.
Speaker 5 (13:44):
How's the talent for Arkansas?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
No? No, no, no, it's great to be better, it's not
a better coach.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean I think anytime you go
in there knowing that if you don't if you don't
accomplish your goals and really you know, operate on the
same page, you got an opportunity to lose in college football,
and that's part of what makes the games great. So
we try to prepare for every game the same and
hope that we go play our best and the result
hopefully takes care of itself.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
When you walk into a mom or a dad or
a grandma whomember raises the athlete that you're trying to recruit,
what do they know about you? Once you're gone? That
makes them want to come here?
Speaker 5 (14:17):
Once I'm gone?
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Yeah, once you leave the room, wance, you leave the house.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
Just then I'm authentic, like I'm the same guy today
that I was, you know, twenty years ago. I hope
that's what people can always say about me, that just
because positions have changed and situations changed, that I'm the
same person and that family matters to me. I think
if you're in the room with me for ten minutes,
you're probably gonna hear about my boys and my wife.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
And that's something that's important to me. And that we
treat the players on our team the same way.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
Sometimes I'll see and I have a little warehouse we do.
I have a little clothing line. It's we do a
lot of charity work with our clothing line. And we
have one of those little machines that prints out the shirts.
I feel like here there's like a one of those,
you know, apparel printing machines. You just get anything you
want printed. Is it on campus or do you have
to have a ship to you because it's NonStop everything's
Oregon everything.
Speaker 3 (15:01):
Yeah, it's a good setup. You know, we've got an
awesome relationship with Nike. I don't know about that's the
white house here though, right I couldn't. I couldn't answer that.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
That's a secret.
Speaker 5 (15:07):
I noticed when I show up.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
To my locker and I open it up, there's there's
a stuff, and that's it's pretty awesome. Like I said,
Kenny Fard does a great job of taking care of
our staff and our players.
Speaker 5 (15:16):
Yeah, we don't run out of gear.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
I didn't used to consider myself a shoe guy, and
now now I got too many.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
Shoes without identifying anyone. Were there ever colors that you
just didn't like wearing because you didn't like the colors?
Not here, not Oregon, I'm other schools you've been at,
because some if I had to wear orange, I'll be
honest with you, Burnt or Tennessee orange, I might quit
just for that.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
Yeah, I guess I've probably never been that. I've never
been that much of a fashionista. I'm not a big
fan of purple, but beyond that, I'm pretty good with
any color.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
I guess, so light purple probably wouldn't be your jam.
Not much like the U. C. A. Bears. You wouldn't
go coach at UC.
Speaker 5 (15:51):
I would go.
Speaker 3 (15:52):
I'll coach where there's a job. I'm not going to
make my decisions based off of color. But luckily for me,
I found my last job.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
You played at UCA was coach Rble at Florida State.
That's right, and you worked with coach there. What was
he like?
Speaker 3 (16:04):
Yeah, he's awesome, like relentless, you know, works, works his
tail off, extremely intelligent, willing to get in there, and
coach will coach every position on the on the field.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
You know, unbelievable family.
Speaker 3 (16:16):
You know, whenever I work with coach, it's the same
time my wife got diagnosed with cancer and he was
really good for me and my family.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Then I'll run through a couple of them then Coach Saban,
what did you learn from him?
Speaker 5 (16:25):
Consistency?
Speaker 3 (16:27):
You know, the guy's a robot. He every morning he's
rolling in the obvioicely the exact same time. We're gonna
have a staff me in the same time. You know,
his routine was really impressive. To see, whether it's what
he's eating every morning or every lunch, the way he
operates day in and day out was was really impressive.
Coach smart, Yeah, just enthusiasm, passion, intelligence, ability to adapt,
(16:50):
always thought he was on the cutting edge of things
and always looking for an edge.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
I mean, bones is rolling through all these great coaches
that you worked with, like schools, but he's forgetting Sam
Houston State, Well, probably the best school in America.
Speaker 3 (17:02):
About the donut shops in Huntsville, Oh.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
The best, the best, And I think we're cap.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
At a donut shops per town. I think it's gotta
be one of.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
The high What was your I mean, what was that experience?
Like a lot of people are gonna want to hear
about this.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, that's for social Yeah.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
So I worked with Casey Keeler was the head coach there,
and that was that was a great coach to be under.
He really gave you an opportunity to figure out how
you want to do things.
Speaker 5 (17:25):
You know, he let his coaches coach.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
He'd push you, he'd questioned you, but he gave you
an opportunity to go, you know, make it what you
wanted to make it. So your dB meeting that day,
your corners meeting that day, it was you know, how
do you want to build it?
Speaker 5 (17:37):
What do you want to look like?
Speaker 3 (17:37):
The drill work you did on the field and you
make some mistakes, but you also learned a lot in
the process. So I love my time there at SAM
and it's you know, it's it. It wasn't the bus
league at that time, but you take some long road trips.
You know, you do hop on a charter bus from
time to time to get the places. And you know,
that's something that I think everybody should experience in their
coaching career.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Going to Sam Houston, keeping it right, I think everybody
would to Sam Houston forever. That's the At some point,
that's all I said. Everybody must go to Sam Houston
State to coach at some point.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Now, I think you know, my wife and I have
this discussion too.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
We met at a restaurant. We worked that out back
steakhouse together. And I think the other thing.
Speaker 3 (18:12):
That everybody should do is some point you should work
in the service industry.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
You should.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
You should get stiffed at some point, you should get
an unbelievable tip. At some point you should, you know,
learn how to you know, make the people at your
table happy and learn how to deal with Okay, the
food came out late or it came out.
Speaker 2 (18:25):
And it's not the waiter's fault, but sometimes you have
to be sometimes like the head coach. I an't always
your fault, but you got to take it and go
and take responsibility.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Can you solve a problem? Can you solve a problem?
Speaker 6 (18:34):
So?
Speaker 3 (18:34):
Uh, that's something else that you know, I'm a big
believer in that everybody should have to do that.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
At some point an eight top when they wanted a
high chair, I waited tables forever, so you know what
I'm talking dude, and they want have you been stiff?
I would be stiff to the point of, you know,
they would do zero zero and leave me a tip
of like how about get a new job?
Speaker 5 (18:52):
Wat watch you know, look both ways when you cross
the streets something like that.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Yes, so that would suck. And then having to clean
the crackers up after a baby just went full high chair.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
That's not the parents fault. But okay, I mean the
baby does that. I want to compare them to do
like it just happens part of the job.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
The hard part.
Speaker 3 (19:06):
About a baby is you know already coming in that
they're not going to order a meal, but you're serving
them anyway, right, so you're not going to get a
great tip from that.
Speaker 5 (19:14):
Let me ask you this, Now that you've been a server,
you good tipper?
Speaker 2 (19:16):
Oh on, two things have happened to me. One I
was a server, so I was a good tipper. I've
been very fortunate in my career. Now that I am
wildly rich. I'll just say it, it's amazing. It's great
because I grew up very poor. I'm I usually tip
like one hundred percent just because of those of those
two reasons. Because I relied on my bills to be
(19:37):
paid by other people, and I needed that blessing from
them in order to just pay my bills. So now
that I have money, I'm glad I serve because I
understand the plight of what the people are going through
serving me.
Speaker 3 (19:49):
One of the greatest feelings in the world is be
able to give somebody a great tip, right and know
how much you probably changed their day and make them
feel better.
Speaker 1 (19:55):
So don't get a twisted though he only gets appetizers.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Do you have Sonics up here?
Speaker 5 (20:05):
I don't know Portland.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Probably the worst is when you go to and I
love Sonic my favorite, and I'm just gonna flex on tips.
It's a very QUI great point and I'm honest about it.
So I love tipping because I needed the tips. So
if I got a Sonic and I get like a
drink or something, and I give them a hundred dollar bill,
and then when they just look at it and don't
don't like give me the extra smile. I get a
little offended. Coach, I'm be honest with you. I need
like that fair thanks, that's fair? Is? I just need
(20:29):
you to because I once dropped a whole trade drinks
on it. And let me tell you this, it's a
bad one. Give me. I want your worst story. I
had a whole trade drinks drinks and probably not really food,
maybe a couple and I walked and I did a
little trip. I dropped it all on a guy at
the table and it was probably a seven or eight
top and spilled it all over him and I was
(20:51):
so embarrassed. I got a a towel and at the
end when he left a tip, he left me a
large tip and said, hey, make sure when someone does
this to you, hopefully you treat them the same way.
Well change my life. I wrote about it my first book,
Change my Life, because I was like, wow, I screwed
up as much as I possibly could have, and this
guy still wanted to make that a learning lesson for
(21:12):
me in a positive way. So miserable day, wonderful outcome.
And I've kept that with me. Did you ever really
screw up waiting tables?
Speaker 3 (21:21):
I think everybody's spilled a drink on someone before. That's
that's certainly bad. I mean, I feel like one of
my worst days and as a server, was I had
to work Super Bowl Sunday and the Super Bowl's going
on and I had like a two hundred dollars bill
and I got stiffed on it on Super Bowl Sunday.
Speaker 5 (21:37):
But that nothing too bad. Nothing you couldn't solve.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
I feel like I should tip them right now just
so you can like.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
Give them money.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
Yeah, run and short.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
Yeah, no good, thanks. Expectations on the program or high
they should be. Expectations are a wonderful thing because you've
earned them and deserved them. What are the expectations internally?
And what do you tell your team you expect from
them day in and day out.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
Yeah, this is going to be that coaching answer that
you probably don't want, but their best. I just want
to our players' best. Whatever this team's capable of, that's
what I want to see him achieve. And I don't
know that we know that until we see what teams
we're gonna be facing and line up across room. But
we expect we step on the field to play the
best game we can possibly play. Hold ourselves to a
higher standard, and again, let the result take care of itself.
Speaker 2 (22:17):
I was looking at the schedule and Maryland is the
team that would be the farthest. But Maryland is here,
which is nice. And you know, with you guys switching conferences,
you really don't have to go that far in your
first season. That's pretty fortunate, right.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Yeah, I think so, Yeah, I think so. I mean
getting to play in the Big ten something's pretty exciting.
We're going have to go to some venues that I've
never been to before. But we'll travel to Michigan, We'll
travel to Indiana, orsue me, Purdue, you know, we'll travel.
I'm trying to think, but no Ruggers, No, no Ruggers, No,
No Maryland, Yeah, Wisconsin. That'll be a fun road trip
(22:51):
for us. So and then everything else is still remotely
close to where we would have been before.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
You're not gonna answer this to I like fe the
answer it, but I'm gonna ask it anyway. You know,
you first couple of games games, it's uh, I forget
who the first I know? Yeah, then it's a Boise
stay that so sure you're getting ready for those, but
you have guys already looking at at the conference game
scouting those teams.
Speaker 5 (23:10):
We all look.
Speaker 3 (23:10):
Ahead, so the summer is a great opportunity to kind
of jump ahead and look and see what's going to
be different that you haven't seen before, what you haven't
faced before, so you can kind of make sure when
when we get the fall camp. Our hope is that
we can kind of put everything in that'll apply to
our teams throughout the season. So you absolutely look ahead
and try to plan for the future. But then when
you get you know, the game prep and game game week,
you're focused on that next team.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
Do you do we talked about in helmet communication, when
you guys hold signs up? Do you hold pictures of
things up? We have in the past. You like to
offer one year, I'd like to for us.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
I knew this was coming.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Well, it's just we did a trick play deal with
the team last year. It's pretty cool. They did it,
and they did it. They did it, and I would
like to offer a picture of my head with big
glasses and it's like you want to call the dorky dive.
You want to call like you know, a nerd on
three and it's the one time, one game that's the
sign my head with glasses.
Speaker 5 (24:03):
All right, we'll look into it.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
He gave me the people will call your people. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's only one of the plays that has a picture
of my head in Arkansas, the basketball games. I hold
it up. You know, they do that thing. But that
doesn't not really for a play. So I'm offering that
I will not sue you no intellectual property. We're able
to use that one game, even if it's a fake,
even if it's you know, the indicator for the next sign.
(24:26):
You are able to use my head for a sign.
Speaker 5 (24:29):
We'd use it once, if we use it more than
if you.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Use it once. What's your favorite? What? What charity are
you involved in? Here?
Speaker 3 (24:36):
Always yes you it's uh, you know, local cancer Research hospital.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
If it shows up, ten thousand dollars from my pocket,
didn't consider it. It shows up and we see, yeah,
I will donate ten thousand dollars to that charity. And
I think we both win.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Yeah, I think that's the win.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Now. Every time, no times a game, this could be
a really, this could turn it's really specially for kickoff.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
He holds it up for kickoff.
Speaker 5 (25:05):
No, God, I love it. That's awesome. We'll definitely do it.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
I hear. I hear that you're like a foodie. Are
you a cooker?
Speaker 5 (25:12):
I like to cook.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
I'm not great at a lot of meals, but I
like the cook We did steaks last night at the house.
Speaker 2 (25:17):
Do you do the whole? Take pride in how you
marinate a steak? Or do you just grill it up?
Speaker 5 (25:23):
No, you have more more.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Grill it up, put the right seasoning on it. It
doesn't take a lot working in steak. Aluse salt and
pepper and and you know you're pretty good. See some
other put butter on there. Yeah, we did garlic butter
last Night's some garlic butter. And yeah, it's more about
making sure it's cooked right.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
What's your go to though?
Speaker 1 (25:38):
When people come to the house, you're like, oh, let me,
let me this is my best meal that I cook someone.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
Yeah, I can do steak. I mean that's that's kind
of my steak. Potatoes. I like doing the uh you know,
wrapping the potatoes and aluminum foil, throwing some onions and
stuff inside, cooking it for a long time.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Doing it in the grill of the oven.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Yeah, both, I'll do both. The usually i'll do the
potatoes in the oven, but I've done both. I also
like kialapeno wrap, you know, like stuffed jelapenos with bacon
rapped around it.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
That's hard to be and listen to.
Speaker 1 (26:03):
It's just Jilipinos man here.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
I know. I always feel like I'm you say, how
do you say? Well, I'm from Arkansas, but I'm I
also feel like I'm extremely too Caucasian to accent that
if I don't accent the rest, because I have friends
that are like, hello, my name is Jimmy, would you
like a tottilla? Like that doesn't work. It's hard, like
I get Or when they're talking about the countries for
the soccer and they're like, hey, would you like to
(26:27):
watch soccer? It's gonna be America versus the Yetaguay And
I'm like, that doesn't feel legitimate. I like it, but
to me, I can't do that.
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Maybe it's maybe it's because my wife's Cambodian and.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
You know, absolutely okay, with five questions left, coach, uh,
let's go to this. Give me your musical mount Rushmore.
The four artists that you love all time, they'd put
up there.
Speaker 5 (26:49):
This is tough.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
I like Mumford and Sons a lot. Probably throw the
Cranberries on there.
Speaker 5 (26:55):
I know that's kind of.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
Wild, one out of nowhere.
Speaker 5 (26:58):
I like.
Speaker 3 (26:58):
I like the Crammers now. I don't know if they
have enough bangers, but.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
But they got like three all time all time Yeah, classic.
Speaker 5 (27:06):
Exactly, that's great.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (27:08):
Fleetwood Mac would probably.
Speaker 3 (27:10):
Be in there, and they're kind of that same category.
Speaker 5 (27:13):
They don't have a million, but they got some really
good ones.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
You don't want to do a Fleetwood Max song.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
I can sure you can go your wrong way and
then I don't know, I'd probably go something new. You know.
Speaker 3 (27:23):
I went to a Zach Bryant concert recently and he
was unbelievable, so i'd probably throw him on there.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Is it weird having bosses older than you?
Speaker 5 (27:32):
No, I think that's normal, right, yeeah.
Speaker 2 (27:34):
Bosses are usually older than you, Okay, except you. But
you're bossing people Okay, by this, you're bossing people around
that are older than you.
Speaker 5 (27:41):
Yeah, not really, I don't.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
I think if you k watching our program, you'd see
we work really well together.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
It's not about just bossing. Sometimes you got to.
Speaker 2 (27:48):
Make the toughest yeah.
Speaker 5 (27:49):
But yeah, yeah, I don't.
Speaker 1 (27:50):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
I don't feel like we're bossing a bunch of people
around here.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
That's why I'd say too, but that'd be awesome. I
guess I kind of was it though for a lot.
I was like twenty three running something but not like this.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
And you're kind of my boss too, and I'm older
than you, so yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
It's coach. We're like, we're dying breed, like youngsters that
run everything.
Speaker 5 (28:05):
Yeah, were agent quick.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
Yeah, these kids don't even know.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
I don't know anything.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Coaches left.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
I have four boys. One of them says he's going
to be a receivers coach for the Dallas Cowboys and
that is his peak, Like that's what he wants to do.
What would you tell like a kid, like, if you
want to be a coach, this is where you start.
Speaker 3 (28:24):
Ye start coaching as fast as you can start coaching.
It's it's more about getting your feet wet. You don't
want to be bad at your first job, right, so
you got to go somewhere where you can get the
opportunity to do it. And it doesn't really matter where
you're at. It's about getting out there and learning. My
first coaching job was park Hill South High School. I
was an elementary pe teacher and then I coached high
school football and I started coaching receiver. I played defense
(28:45):
my whole career. I was coaching wide outs first, So
I think it's first about just getting there and getting
your feet wet, and then don't worry about the next
step until you've done a great job at the step
you're at.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
That's you have something interesting. You had never played wide receiver,
but you coached it. I have friends that are teacher
or something like. They're like, I don't know anything about
World Wars to say, cram like before they have to
give their lesson. When you switch to coach wide receivers,
are you just learning as much as you can before
you go and take that job.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Yeah, you spend all your time studying. We did a
lot of blocking drills at park Hill South. I always
told her. I always told her white outs, the catching
the ball was a privilege. We'll do that before and
after practice, but during practice, we're gonna be really good
at blocking.
Speaker 5 (29:20):
So I'm sure they didn't love that.
Speaker 2 (29:21):
That's good. Let's do Mount rushmore. Favorite athletes growing up
when you were a kid, Who were your favorite four?
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Yeah, Derek Thomas for sure would have been KC Chiefs.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
Michael Jordan for sure. Probably Nolan Ryan.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Yeah, I grew up in a really cool era with
the Chiefs, so like Neil, Smith would probably be on
that list as well.
Speaker 5 (29:47):
So I was a big Chiefs fan. BoJack Actually, I'd
say bo Jackson gotta go bow the Royal.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
We just cut a new head into the mount Rush five.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Yeah, okay, that's all right if you have to remove
Neil and throw Bow in there.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
I like them both, but both Sorry Neil, you've been almon, Yes,
but the.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
Baseball batswing after a sack was the coolest thing ever.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Did you Did you have one of those as the linebacker?
Speaker 5 (30:06):
No? No, I just ran back to the huddle.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Man, what would you have a sack? But what would
you do now if you could have like that?
Speaker 5 (30:12):
Yeah, run back to the huddle.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Yeah, same thing is that? What you tell your guys too,
is run back to No.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
I mean you have to be you. I always tell
him this.
Speaker 3 (30:18):
You don't want to get a penalty for celebrating on
our team. That's that's going to equal a lot of
running the next day. So we don't do that.
Speaker 5 (30:25):
We don't. We don't punish ourselves.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
My final question has to do with the rule change. It.
I think that college football should make and I would
like to hear your opinion on it. So he scored touchdown,
it's time to kick the extra point. I believe the
person that scored the touchdown should have the opportunity to
kick the extra point and if made or it's worth
two points.
Speaker 5 (30:48):
Yeah, that's an interesting thought. I'd have to put some
thought into it.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
I am exactly sometim.
Speaker 5 (30:54):
It's going to make you.
Speaker 3 (30:55):
Think more about who you want to score your touchdown,
right right right, Like you know, you get down to
the two yards, we don't have to Your kicker can
kick for what for an extra point?
Speaker 5 (31:03):
For one more point?
Speaker 3 (31:04):
I think you're going to be trying to force the
ball over guy. That's kind of decent foot.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
And what about any kickover fifty being worth four points?
Speaker 5 (31:11):
Yeah, I'm down for that's yeah.
Speaker 2 (31:13):
Yeah, these are all good rules.
Speaker 5 (31:14):
Yeah, you get to the.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Front and the real one would be sensors and balls,
so you would know if the ball actually crossed the
plane because if the cameras can't see, but if the
knee is down, uh, but.
Speaker 5 (31:24):
That's probably coming right.
Speaker 3 (31:25):
I think you're you're ahead of your time there. But
I think that's that's something that will exist here sooner
than later.
Speaker 2 (31:29):
Coach. We really appreciate the time. Uh, what you've done
here is amazing. Final bonus question when you're the defensive coordinator. Yeah, yeah,
you added an extra amount more. Yeah, that's when I
felt like we were open to another question. You cheated,
We cheat. I've Whenever you're in DC at Georgia and
you guys are killing it, obviously, how quick does it
all happen that you're the head coach here? Is it?
(31:51):
Is it a call and well we're off?
Speaker 3 (31:53):
Yeah, it's fast, it's fast. We're in the process of
recruiting at the time. So I was actually in Miami
when the when the process kind of got start it.
And then on the flight back, you know from Miami, Uh,
it kind of even went faster.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
A long night and could you believe it?
Speaker 3 (32:07):
No, I still pinch myself that I get to do
what I get to do. I was really content, really
happy where I was at and uh, enjoying it. But
I never thought this would be as fulfilling as it's been.
Speaker 2 (32:17):
We really appreciate the time. I'll be watching it for
my head. Do it in like one of the games.
It don't matter too, like it doesn't you know, as
long as this national TV, national championship game, why would
you offer that?
Speaker 5 (32:26):
What you said, Yeah, it doesn't matter as long as
it's national.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
National TV and national are or maybe collegetball playoff or
Ohio State doesn't matter as long as one of those games.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
But maybe we can do like regular season ten thousand
and then if we do want to playoff, that would.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Be in kids. This is called a negotiating that I
would do, and especially if everybody that you had t
shirt night where everybody had my head on it.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, that probably costs a little bit.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Yeah, I probably cost a little bit. Yeah, I hear that. Coach,
amazing what you've done here.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
Thank you for the time, absolutely, thank you, love fun,
appreciate it.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
All right, thanks to Coach Landing. I will have the video.
It'll be up soon.
Speaker 5 (33:02):
It'll be up today.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
It'll be up now because we're putting this up Friday.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Oh oh, it'll be up now.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
Yeah listening.
Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yeah, so there was the reason we shouldn't put this
up today. Friday? Wink? Nope, Friday wink?
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Okay, good, Hey, will you guys tag Sam Houston State
on that? No, tag him? I don't know. Shout out.
That's pretty cool, man. We talked about Sam Houston State,
little old bear Cat.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
You did. I don't think you knew except Kevin told
you you put it in.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
The pres he was he was like an assistant receiver.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
No I know, but I think didn't he remind you, like,
I don't forget Sam Houston State. Yeah, and you're like, well,
I didn't read the note.
Speaker 1 (33:34):
He didn't tell me that. Yeah, it's still cool.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
So yeah, okay, cool, Let's take a break. We will
come back. A couple things I wanted to mention. First
of all, an update on our poker player. He didn't
win any money. He lasted. I think there were ten
thousand people he lasted into the three thousand left. Yeah,
like you'd be like seventy percent of the field.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
It's really good.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Did not win us any money though we were on
a group. Did you see me leave the group thread?
Speaker 1 (34:03):
No? No, no, no no no.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
As soon as he lost, I left him. There's too
much chitty chat in there, and I kep getting little bubbles.
I don't like bubbles on my stuff. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:10):
I felt bad too, because it says like red or
scene or whatever by whoever. And when he was in play,
it was like everyone that respond look, look, look. As
soon as he said I'm out, I just ignored every Yeah.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
I thought would be like a text where it's Bobby's
left the message.
Speaker 1 (34:22):
I just left, you know. I was like, no, I
never said that five.
Speaker 2 (34:26):
Thousand, but he uh man to the top three thousand ish?
Good run did not make it. If he came back again,
I said he was gonna do it next year? Would
you reinvest?
Speaker 1 (34:36):
Yeah, because he seems like a smart player from all
the updates he had, like he was he had a
good role. But once those blinds get big.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Like, well you have to have money. Yeah, you got
to build up kevin'rehaking your head.
Speaker 6 (34:45):
No, yeah, I don't believe him. I think I think
next year you would the tone in your voice. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (34:52):
It was fun though, to follow him right bones, like,
just to kind of see where he was. I didn't
realize they were ten thousand players, Like I know he
told us that, but then you but.
Speaker 2 (35:00):
He told us that, So that's when you should have realized.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
But I didn't even That's when I got out how
crazy that is.
Speaker 2 (35:05):
I would I would hop in again with him. Yeah,
he made it. I made it. Beat seventy percent of
the field. I think he needed to go cut that
in half again to fifteen hundred to make money. I
think he's a pretty good player, so I would reinvest
with them if he was doing it.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Imagine if you had good cards, because a.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Lot it's not really it's about the cards, But it's
not really about the cards. It's about the decisions you
make with the cards that you have.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
Right, And I feel like he did that this time around,
Like made really good decisions with mediocre cards, because.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
I didn't say had mediocre cards. Because sometimes you'll get
you'll hip pocket kings and you'll understand you probably have
to fold kings. That's two kings, and you're yeah that
nobody else can see if there are like three diamonds
on the board and you know there's just a lot.
So I didn't see the cards, so I can't call
that situation. I'm gonna assume everybody gets equally good and
bad cards, and it's decisions made with the cards you
have versus what the people are doing. Yeah, he did
(35:50):
not win. I would reinvest with them. I'm in again,
he'sn't asking right now, but yeah, do you think you'll
do it?
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Again.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
Yeah, I think I think it paid for half his
entry fee. Yeah, heck yeah, I should.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
Go play it.
Speaker 4 (36:02):
And this is what he does. It's not like a hobby, you.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Know, right, do they have crap? No, it is kind
of a side.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
I think it is a hobby. I don't think it's
professional poker player.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
He has a job.
Speaker 2 (36:10):
He taught people how to do how to play what
it was. Yeah, but he has a job. He's like
in media or like market marketing. Market Yeah yeah, righty right,
it's marketing, okay. John Lepley update. John Lepley is the
minor league baseball player that I texted. Remember I was
like the only person that ever give me autograph as
a kid. Yes, I've heard nothing.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
He played for the Arkansas Travelers.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
I think he just changed his number because it came
back green. So I think we find his his page again.
What was it?
Speaker 1 (36:39):
A LinkedIn?
Speaker 2 (36:40):
A LinkedIn with the email? I think it is an email,
the LinkedIn email now instead of text it. So the
update there is I've got nothing back, but I'm going
to email that now. Something can find that page again.
Speaker 4 (36:52):
His LinkedIn?
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Yeah, and I'll just email that on there. I've got
three updates. Another update DeAndre Hopkins.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
Yeah DM.
Speaker 2 (36:59):
Oh so Katie's advice was to follow him, but just
be cool about it and then maybe he'd see it
and follow back. Right. Oh, no, he doesn't follow me back.
I'm about I'm about to unfollow him, dude. So he's
the receiver for the Titans that I met when I
was on a work trip in France, of all places,
and I d M him.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
He DMed me.
Speaker 2 (37:18):
Back, and then I was like, what do I do?
So I followed him. He did not follow me back.
We are not going steady. Best case scenario is that
he saw it right away and didn't want to be
too eager and waited and you're planning these these ultra
positive seeds in my head that are not going to
ever grow anything.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
Just trying to help.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Okay, you find you find it over there, Kevin.
Speaker 4 (37:40):
He saw his last name.
Speaker 2 (37:40):
I think it's l E P L E Y.
Speaker 4 (37:43):
He is a is it a Wine and Spirits guy?
Speaker 2 (37:45):
Now? Yeah, that is him and spirits. I found him,
So what he's doing? Now?
Speaker 4 (37:50):
Hook it up, Savannah Georgia.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
I'm up for auction now. They just put it up.
It is the I don't even want to say what
it is because I don't want somebody eat me on.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
It something you're trying to get.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Yeah, okay, if everybody listening promises they won't go get.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
It, No, you can't promise that, but I but I
want to know what it is, so tell.
Speaker 2 (38:15):
Us come look at it.
Speaker 1 (38:19):
I'm on my way.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
I think it would be cool to have, although I
don't know what I would do with it.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
But that's everything you have. What do you do with it?
Speaker 2 (38:32):
Okay? You need it? Okay, but should I share what
it is? Or will a listener take it? And should I? Just?
Should I get it and then say what it is after?
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Yes, get it first. Don't let anyone the risk of
people taking this is not you don't want that, and
you need this.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
Do you know what it is? Kiddy?
Speaker 3 (38:48):
Have people guess?
Speaker 2 (38:49):
Do you know what it is?
Speaker 5 (38:51):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Wait, I could probably look and see what it is.
It's not an eBay loser.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
I think it's safe to say.
Speaker 2 (38:56):
No one we'll ever get reads. You do it because
read and I read ELPs we do the count together.
I always see the stuff that he's looking at.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
Oh, I always.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Say stuff reed's looking at too, Bose, I'm telling you
anime girls and bikinis.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
No, I'm very passionate about this. I think this is
something that you definitely need.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
It'd be cool to have. I just don't want to
say because I want to beat me for and I
don't think the bidding is going to go way up
unless I I don't think so either. Highlight the fact
that it's not okay, okay, And then the only other
thing that I was going to mention before we take
a break, and was it Caitlyn Clark set the record
for assist in a game period of any player.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
Was that last night?
Speaker 2 (39:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (39:36):
I watched it.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
They lost, but she had nineteen assists Wednesdaynesday night. But
so when we record this part, yes, she had nineteen assists.
That's not like a rookie record that she's breaking. Caitlyn
Clark sets the WNBA record with the nineteen assists and
lost to Wings. Caitlyn Clark broke the record. They lost,
And what's good about breaking this record? And in a loss?
If you break a points record and a loss, it's like, well,
(39:57):
stop being a ball hog. Maybe you could have won
breaking an assist record, it's like you're trying everything to
get everybody involved. They lost. It's the last game league
wide prior to the month long Olympic break. Speaking with
slight bias, I think she is now a top fifteen
player in the WNBA period, not just rookies. I think
she is. She's had rest, they haven't played back to backs.
(40:18):
They went straight from the end of college to draft
game start, no break. She's now thumping people. A rookieer.
She no doubt she went Rookie of the Year, and
angelids me second, she should not. It should not even
be close. But she's killing folks now. And imagine a
month break. I did sell the autograph on this. I
(40:41):
bought the autograph for four to fifty, put it on eBay.
I knew it would go off for more than that.
Read what to go for?
Speaker 5 (40:46):
That's what I'm looking up right now.
Speaker 2 (40:47):
You got what sold for? I think it was like
five ninety eight, close to it.
Speaker 1 (40:51):
Close good.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
That's a good little profit.
Speaker 4 (40:55):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
Just so. I knew that card shop had messed up
by leaving at priced at four to fifty, so bought
it for four fifty.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
You're like a flipper here, a card flipper.
Speaker 2 (41:03):
I don't feel like I can do that enough. I
just felt like that was something I saw the value. Yeah,
but then I got nervous because like the day of
there was like one bid, but they all just weaged
to pounce. I got twenty four points ten for nineteen shooting.
She had nineteen.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
That's crazy. And stylish passes too. I didn't sign the back.
I mean we watched.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
Who say stylish passage? Yeah, what do you mean? I
don't know papal to.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Is there a word for it? Like, what's the word
for it? Where you throw cool passes under your legs
behind the back, Like, I don't know. Style? Man, it
was with style, but it's you know what. Though I
hadn't watched her play yet, and me and the boys
we sat down and watched the whole game. No, we
saw the Iowa game.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
Was she chunking threes? Yeah, she had any of them.
Speaker 1 (41:47):
But but she would get she would get covered quickly
and then she would pass it off and then they
would hit threes.
Speaker 2 (41:52):
But stylish and.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
She's no regular threes. Stylish passes, Oh dude, And she's fast.
She's fast. I didn't realize how fast she was.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
It's bulldog, man, she'll fight you too. Yeah, I'm a
big fan. I don't know if I've mentioned that over
the past ever in the history of this show. But
I'm a big fan. Okay, we're gonna take one more break.
We'll be back, all right. To wrap up a couple
of topics I'd like to have here, Brandon Ayuk requested
a trade from the forty nine Ers. The highest paid
player as far as wide receivers goes Justin Jefferson thirty
(42:23):
five million a year. A J. Brown's at number two.
What's crazy is NBA salaries next to NFL salaries. Like
you could be a middle of the road NBA player,
like a seventh man and make what Justin Jefferson makes
a year. Now, granted it's only five spots, or even starting,
it's five spots versus twenty two, so that does make sense.
(42:44):
But Justin Jefferson, A J. Brown, Monroe, Saint Brown, Tyreek Kill,
Jalen Water. Those are the top five. I could probably
list you somebody from the Timberwolves. It comes off the bench,
plays three minutes a game that makes equally what these
guys make. But where does Brandon Ayuck fall into these receivers?
Is he a top ten receiver? No, you don't think so.
Speaker 1 (43:05):
I would do twenty five.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
I didn't ask you how much you would spend because
you don't have.
Speaker 1 (43:09):
No top twenty five.
Speaker 2 (43:10):
Oh yeah, we were talking about money. No ranking the
top twenty way better than top twenty five, I think so.
Speaker 1 (43:20):
I mean I would say not Deebo Samuel Brandon ayut,
I know.
Speaker 2 (43:25):
I'm familiar with the two names and the different letters.
Speaker 1 (43:27):
And different making sure.
Speaker 2 (43:31):
I would say right around in the top nine, ten
to eleven range, I would say too when given the opportunity,
and he was given opportunities. He played extremely effective and
at times uh sensational. But again that ball, they only
have one ball, and they've got McCaffrey, Debo Kittle. I
mean what you got through all the way, he was
(43:51):
like the fourth weapon there. I think he's probably in
that eight nine. I think he's a top ten receiver.
Speaker 4 (43:59):
You, Yeah, right on the edge right there.
Speaker 2 (44:01):
Justin Jefferson's better, Jamar Chase. Jamar Chase is better, A J.
Brown's better. The fact that A mon ros Saint Brown
played with the broken the rib separated along Seid crazy.
Have you guys watched receivers on Netflix?
Speaker 4 (44:14):
No yet haven't.
Speaker 1 (44:16):
I mean I didn't finish quarterbacks, so I'm thinking, like,
why am I going to like receivers.
Speaker 4 (44:20):
I'm gonna try it.
Speaker 2 (44:21):
Tyreek Hill is probably three in my list though, if
we'd list him in order. So those guys, DeVante Adams
just has nobody throwing the ball, but sure it's still
a monster. Cooper Cup, Yeah, it just hurt. It feels
like he's always hurt, doesn't it?
Speaker 6 (44:35):
Just last year, the last couple of years ever since
they won Super Bowl?
Speaker 2 (44:39):
Okay, what about like a Devanta Smith.
Speaker 1 (44:43):
Just hasn't proven himself on the thing. Really middle of
the road. A lot of hype coming out of college,
but middle of the road.
Speaker 2 (44:50):
Yeah, a lot of hype, you know why he Yeah,
what about like a Nico Collins.
Speaker 6 (44:56):
See that's where I think where he is in that
second Yeah, right there, right there in the Smith and
Collin's area.
Speaker 2 (45:02):
Uh. Speaking of football NFL, the Bears, everybody's wondering because
those rookies hadn't signed deals yet. They reach their deals
with Kayleb Williams and Roboons, which is good because now
camp starts. That'd be awesome to be starting quarterback.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
That'll be amazing.
Speaker 2 (45:18):
Yes, Like what I wonder is this is when my
head really goes with being a quarterback in the NFL.
Are they like, oh man, this is gonna hurt every
day they going? Or are they like this is gonna
be so much fun? Or are they like I'm really
prepared and yeah, I hope. Like when I play the
softball game, I knew I could probably tear, I could
probably pull in hamstring or something. Finding stretch right or
(45:41):
I have tend and eyes on my feet which I
could see rounding third to one point, I pulled up
a little bit. I was like, yeah, So I'm like,
I'm probably gonna hurt myself a little bit, but I
can get there. Like do they think that every game
or is it just like fun?
Speaker 1 (45:52):
So are you talking about like a rookie or like
just a starting quarterback?
Speaker 2 (45:56):
Like do they go every I'm going, oh man, this
is gonna hurt. Let's see if we can or is
it like they're just looking forward to it they don't
feel anything.
Speaker 1 (46:03):
I feel like every game is like, ooh, this is
a chance for me to be like a highlight an
awesome star, Like this is another another chance for me
to prove how awesome I am.
Speaker 6 (46:13):
I feel like a lot of them are like I've
been the best athlete my entire life. And then you
get to the pros, it's like, oh, this is gonna
be really I feel.
Speaker 2 (46:20):
Like everyone's like, oh this is gonna hurt. Yeah, going
into every game like how do I not feel pain? See?
Speaker 1 (46:26):
I wonder what the rookies think because they never get
hit in camp and then their first game in the NFL, Like,
what's Caleb Williams thinking like, oh boy, like when I
get hit.
Speaker 2 (46:33):
That's a great point because even in practice in the NFL,
they're not letting their their AA games get hard. Their
first real, real, real hit is going to be in
not not even in camp, It'll be and uh I
was gonna say spring training.
Speaker 1 (46:45):
I guess preseason.
Speaker 2 (46:46):
Ok.
Speaker 1 (46:47):
Yeah, yeah, because they play even if.
Speaker 2 (46:50):
They're doing the two teams with each other, there's those
defensive guys still are not going to crush therect franchise quarterbacks. Yeah.
Jordan Addison arrested on suspicion of DUI dumb dumb And
then I played college football. I played first time this morning?
Speaker 1 (47:04):
When was it?
Speaker 2 (47:05):
Okay? So I've only played once and I'm Arkansas and
we're like eighty two. We're okay, We're good enough to
build off of. I've played Madden so long the gameplay
is similar, it's not the same. So it's definitely not
a repurposed Madden, which is what it used to be
back in the day, so it is a bit different.
I would say the gameplay itself, if Madden is the baseline,
(47:28):
we'll say Madden is an A. I would say this
is an A minus gameplay. However, everything around it is
a freaking A plus plus plus, from the recruiting to
the portal, to the crowd, the different the announce The
game is so good only one day of play, watching
a lot of TikTok videos, it's so good. The game
(47:50):
play itself is good, but everything around it makes it
so much fun.
Speaker 1 (47:53):
Who's the announcer, Herbstreet?
Speaker 2 (47:55):
Like, I got a pipeline. My pipeline is Central Texas
up through Arkansas, and so that's where I get a
lot of my recruits from.
Speaker 4 (48:02):
That's detail.
Speaker 6 (48:04):
It's a detailed I can't wait to hear you ask
these college coaches as we continue too much access.
Speaker 4 (48:08):
Hey what you guys, some recruiting tips for.
Speaker 2 (48:10):
Me exactly because that'll be the next like talk shop,
you know, I'll tell you some stuff and working for me.
I had a dude for fifty for fifty points. I
sent the house, offered eight scholarships blindly, without even recruiting.
I didn't know what I was doing, and so I
was just like that kid looks good. Offered eight scholarships
and I hit one of them accepted immediately because I
offered him so early. And it was a three star
(48:31):
kid with an X over the diamond, meaning he wasn't
as good as the one what he I know, But
I'm loyal, all right, I'm riding, all right, riding with him.
All Right, We're out, Thank you everybody. We're gonna be
back early next week. We have an interview with Steve
Young coming up.
Speaker 4 (48:47):
Awesome.
Speaker 2 (48:48):
It was awesome, cool, he's the greatest. I think he's
the new leader in the clubhouse. Great skuy Ever oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
ever Yeah.
Speaker 1 (48:57):
I mean I came home told my wife every single
story or he told us, and I'm sure she didn't
care one bit.
Speaker 2 (49:02):
But it was awesome. Steve Young will be next week.
We have even like the Dylan Gabriel interview at Oregon. Yeah,
we have so much. We just don't want to give
