Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay, fellas, as we record this, we're heading into week
three of the NFL season, and I gotta admit I
follow the NFL pretty close. I mean, it's the number
one entertainment industry out there in the world. Yeah, the biggest.
It's the biggest sports league, no doubt. There's a lot
of things that go into it. But one of the
things that that jumped out to me is I was
(00:21):
listening to a another podcast today.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
They were talking about the rash.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Of injuries already through two weeks in the NFL. I mean,
you guys can can join in here at any time,
but you really think about it. To a tagovloa he
gets every year he gets I don't know, but that's
where I'm going with this. Like when you start really
thinking about it. The Rams, I mean they lose po
(00:47):
Pooka Nakua, they lose Cooper Cup, the forty nine ers,
uh Deebo, Samuel Christian McCaffrey's dinged up, Isaiah Pacheco. So
you start looking at these and here where they were
going with this? Okay, and I need your guys opinion.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
On this is gonna be a really good question.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Wait, is it more devastating to the team that actually
plays in the arena, or is it more devastating to
the managers of the fantasy football teams?
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Great question, Great question.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Come on, the fantasy guys are the No, it's definitely
people's livelihoods are on the line with these teams.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
Coaches point, it's you know whose livelihoods on the line,
the fantasy managers. That's my point. We all know that guy, right,
we all know that guy, that gal they live their
life day to day. It's the team.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
I'm in a couple of fantasy teams leagues and they
are not high down the multiple. I'm into one with
my family, my brother in laws and all my nephews
and a couple of their friends.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
And it's straight up like there's no money on the line.
But here's the wager. Whoever comes in last place this year, okay,
has to do a five minute stand up comedy set
at open mic night. That's that's the wager.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Last year, the person who came in last had to
eat one of those super hot nuts that like, you know,
a million Scovil nuts or whatever. So it's weight. It's
like the loser has to do something. There's no money
on the line. My other one's fifty bucks some friends.
My brother asked me to do it with him and
his buddy. So yeah, that one's a little it's fifty bucks,
big deal. But the one with the family, I'm like,
(02:33):
count me in for that. That's freaking hysterical. And whoever loses,
we're all going to go to open mic night at
Gobinanz or whatever and make fun of whoever has the four.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
Of you, just the four of you, just the two
of us, now the entire family, or is it just
the four of you?
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Shannon?
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Oh, the league will go Mike. Okay, so there's more question.
You said the family is in your family league? This
is stan fan.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Yeah, yeah, okay. So Pat, are you a fantasy football guy?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I well, I used to be, but like as soon
as it started to get into fandel and like you
could have a different fantasy lineup every week, I started
getting out of it. Whatever five six years ago, probably
longer than that.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
So it was a different way to get to get
your juice, a different in a different field so to speak.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Yeah, yeah, and I tell you what, I enjoyed the
hell out of it. It was a different like it
made games interesting that I didn't care about the only
thing I cared about with the Bengals and my Seattle
Seahawks for a minute. But I will tell you that
it made the NFL more enjoyable. Now, I just I bet,
I bet I played some I just throw some money down,
(03:43):
But I will tell you I think that. And you
brought up a different one. Someone said, hey, coaches, it's
their livelihood one thousand percent, And that's not even part
of it the story.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
I was being facetious enough.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
The fans, the fans, and then like the managers, I
say that it's the fans. I think fans are definitely,
definitely more involved and more passionate than than the random
manager of a fantasy league.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Well, I'm gonna call it man with the the popularity,
I guess in the advent of just gambling and all
the stuff going on with sports betting, there's gonna be
a scandal. Somebody's gonna get whacked, somebody going into a game.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
The amount of trades hands week to week, no no doubt.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
I'm not talking about like players throwing games.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
I'm talking about psycho fans doing something to interfere with
the performance of a player, like before a game, Like
there's good somebody's gonna get uh galuleied or or.
Speaker 4 (04:43):
Capriotti reference right, yes, yeah, yes, Di Caprioti.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
Wasn't that wasn't that any given Sunday? Wasn't some guy
like didn't did the player shoot somebody? What?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
What?
Speaker 2 (04:52):
What? What movie was that?
Speaker 4 (04:54):
I don't know? Was he like running down the field
and didn't he like pull that got out.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Of Yes, it's a tough beat. So tough beat, tough beat,
head beat. So here's why.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
Here's my let me go over my roster. Oh boy,
here we go. You're you're gonna be that guy starting.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
I got C. J.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
Stroud a quarterback, Taylor running backs Jonathan Taylor and Josh Jacobs.
Solid wide receivers are Chris Olave and Drake London.
Speaker 4 (05:26):
Drake London just a cool name, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Falcon the Falcons the game celebrating after the touchdown in
the last minute of the game.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Did he score?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Cut that guy? Huh?
Speaker 1 (05:40):
He scored a touchdown and then he got called for celebrating.
They had to take a fifty yard extra point.
Speaker 4 (05:45):
They don't take points away from penalties.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Cut.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Then I got I got Rashid Shaheed from the from
the Saints. He's my flex player.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
He had a good game.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
David and Joku's my tight end. So I mean I
got a pretty decent squad. I think I got a
few guys on the bench.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I like what your records get.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
One on one, one on one.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
So you just named some tight end.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
Who was your tight end?
Speaker 4 (06:11):
David and Joku for the Browns. He's a boss, he's
Oh yeah, I'm sure he is.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
I'm sure he's as okay. But here's here's what I'm
going to tell you about David and Joku. When I'm
watching a game, a random game on Sunday afternoon, or
I'm really in tune to it and I want to
see the scores of the other games, I don't need
to see the trailer, the ticker across the bottom telling
me that a second rate tight end for the Browns
(06:36):
has three catches for twenty seven yards. No, I don't.
Speaker 4 (06:40):
It's on my app. I'm staring at my phone, I know, but.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Maybe I'm just old and I'm get off my arm
yea off. But now when I watch a game on TV,
I don't want to be looking at my phone. I
leave my phone in the kitchen so I'm not distracted.
You and I want to be able to see the
other scores of the games, and they will show the
browns of the jaguarst score and the little that different.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
How is that different CBS when we used to watch
it back in then.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
But then they'll have ninety eight seconds of random stats
for the backup running back has two carries for fourteen yards.
I don't give a rats ass. I want to know
the score of this game, the next game, the next game,
and I want to know what's happening.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
You do pay attention to the scores and game differently
that you do. It's a different perspective when you when
you're playing fantasy exactly.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
But but I'm not a fantasy guy. And here's I
asked a question to start and I'll finish it with this. Guys, Okay,
I don't do fantasy, and I've I've done fantasy maybe
two years throughout my you know, throughout my fandom back
and this was probably fifteen years ago. I found that
I've only got so much expendable time. And this goes
for me as a coach on the weekends and everything.
(07:56):
And during the week I've only I only had so
much expendable time because i was coaching. I was trying
to work. I was trying to worry about coaching my
own team, and on the weekends, I'm gonna. I was
working on game plans. I love college football. I was
watching college football. I was following the NFL. I did
not have time to manage a whole other squad. I
just didn't. And so that's kind of where I've always been.
(08:19):
I know people out there love it, but I and
I always kind of bust their chops. Here, here's what
I want to ask you, guys. I'll end it with this.
What is the What are some of the best names
of teams that you've seen in fantasy I heard a
great one the other day. A lady I work with
her son. The name of his team is yet her
(08:41):
butker back into the kitchen.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Get her bucker back into the kitchen. I like it.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Yeah, I've been like so, my last name is spelled
ei s.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
It's Isley.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
So my two league names are they always have something
to do with eyes, like all eyes on me.
Speaker 4 (09:00):
You know, one year it was eyes up here, you know.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Like good that's Goods from Scarface where he goes the
eyes Chico, they never lie.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
So that's my team. Name this year is the Eyes Chico.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
So you have rotating, rotating names.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
Yeah, every year I changed perspective.
Speaker 2 (09:21):
My team name for years was off of the Shower.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
I get what you say, Hey Martin, So mart you lose? Yeah, yeah, yeah,
somebody got to be Hey Martin. What did one I
say to the other?
Speaker 4 (09:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Between you and me, something smells.
Speaker 4 (09:44):
Oh Jesus, rimey.
Speaker 5 (09:47):
Welcome to Tales from the Script, a bad app Cincinnati
high school sports podcast that features local coaches and athletes.
You're your hosts, Brett schneeber Hat O'Connor and Martin Eisley.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
Alright, guys, I'm really really excited about We're gonna break
some the bold here a little bit and bring on
a first time. We brought on this sport and another's thinking,
oh my god, we just got done with the Olympics.
Could this be curling? Could this be something about pickleball?
Pickle ball? Like, no, No. What we're going to do
is we're going to talk about football, but not the
(10:38):
American football. We're gonna talk about the English football. Were
going to talk about soccer here, and I'm excited about this.
Got if you would talk about any type of sport
that I have been more into lately. It's got to
be about soccer.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
I am just so juiced.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
But let me talk a little bit about this guest,
because they're the real deal. They're the real deal. So
I will say where they played, played in the GMC
Big time. That's big time. That's big time ball. Then
they went on to play for Ball State. Okay, so
that means the chirp chirp. Right they finished They finished
(11:16):
seventh in career scoring, seventh in goals. Right, so at
balls that could put it in the net, they could
put it in the net, right, did not? Did not
stop playing there usually at college, right like, hey, I'm
gonna stop. But went on to for a professional career,
played for the Seattle Sounders, played for the Western New
York Flash, went inter Nash, played for the Sweden, played
(11:41):
in Sweden for a couple of years, and then came
back and started coaching for high school. Did amazing things
started to started coaching in twenty sixteen, hung a banner.
We always talk about hanging banners and being an absolute baller.
Hung a Banner in twenty nineteen, was Coach of the
(12:01):
Year in twenty nineteen, had an unbeaten streak, unbeaten streak,
imagine this twenty nine games whoa winning streak of fifteen
in twenty twenty one was coach of the Girls All
American Game was the then announced in twenty twenty one,
the coach of the Cincinnati Sirens. I am so excited
(12:25):
to bring on our podcast my friend coach Bridget Wilder, coach,
how we doing the night?
Speaker 6 (12:32):
Oh, we're doing fabulous.
Speaker 7 (12:34):
That was too much of an introduction, But I hate the.
Speaker 2 (12:38):
Longest one I've ever done. I think. I don't think
I put together so many sentences in my life.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Yeah, you don't do that much homework, Pet, that's for sure.
Speaker 2 (12:46):
How we doing this year? Coach talked to.
Speaker 6 (12:51):
Me, Oh, we're we're gonna have a sneaky little team
this year. So I'll tell you what things. Definitely ebb
and flow in the high school world, no matter what
sport it is.
Speaker 7 (13:03):
Uh, but you know a little different than the American
football realm, where you know you can kind of recruit
if you will. We don't say that in the in
the GMC, the public world, but uh, you know it
happens out there. Yeah, girls soccer world is a little
bit more cut and dry. It's, uh, we lose some
(13:23):
to the to the Catholic side of things, and you
get with your delt. So we have ourselves a young, sneaky,
good team and uh, we're gonna surprise some.
Speaker 6 (13:35):
People this year.
Speaker 7 (13:35):
So brought to a hot start a little rough night,
but yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
And I get that. And you brought up a great
point and and you kind of alluded to this, is
there a feeder program that you have? And you kind
of talked about like, hey, maybe some private schools will
take some players, Like do you have feeder programs? Do
you do you do much development? I know that you're
involved in the Sirens, right, and is that development?
Speaker 6 (13:57):
Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 7 (13:59):
And actually recently step back from that kind of pass
the rains to it's kind of.
Speaker 6 (14:03):
Fuck yourselfsewhere I'm such a Hey, it's okay.
Speaker 7 (14:07):
It was. It was a big part of my life.
But yeah, past the rains there. But no, really in
the soccer world it's a little bit different. I mean,
you've got your you know, handful of large clubs around
the Cincinnati area that are the feeders.
Speaker 6 (14:21):
If you will, But high school's a small chunk of it.
Speaker 7 (14:22):
I mean, right, we get them for three and a
half months and then it's like all right, see you
like and they're onto their club. So a little bit
different than again the football world of things, where it's like,
you know, you're with your high school, you're doing the workouts,
you're doing the lifting, you're doing the off season. We've
got to bring talent in quickly, mash it together, figure
out how can we get the most out of players
(14:44):
in a short span of time, be successful, and then hey,
you know, I'm gonna go trust you at your club
level to to really get more year round development there.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Bridget, This is Brett. Nice to meet you. Number one.
I've always had a lot of respect for everything that
you know happens out of the Coata West. I think
knowing the people I know out there from you know,
the mostly the football side, but I've always thought they've
done things in the first class manner. My question for
you is how hard is it? Because because I'm a
football guy and I'm just piggybacking on what you just said,
(15:16):
how hard is it to only have the girls for
three and a half four months at a time and
then to let them go and like do you stay involved?
Do you follow them? Do you really you know, are
are you tracking their progress through their club teams? I mean,
how difficult is that?
Speaker 7 (15:33):
Yeah, it's a that's a great question, because it is.
It's a different world. And you know, maybe I'm maybe
I'm a coach who's two lax in terms of the
offseason stuff, but really you got to pick and choose
at the high school level.
Speaker 6 (15:46):
You know, I'll follow them in their club.
Speaker 7 (15:48):
Seasons and just check in and see how they're doing,
and you know, if they've got local showcases and such.
But I mean with soccer, they're they're all over, you know,
for league games. They could be playing a league game
in Tennessee and it's just.
Speaker 6 (15:58):
Part of the league.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Don't even get me started. I'm a high school teacher
and I got to when I have a girl come
to me in February and says, uh, oh, yeah, I
want to be here tomorrow and Monday. Yeah, and I
know plays soccer. I'm like, Okay, where are we going,
Saint Louis, Charlotte or Richmond? Where are we going?
Speaker 6 (16:12):
You got it? You got it? So yeah, it's it's tough.
Speaker 7 (16:15):
I mean, sure, do we make mistakes when it comes
to tryout time, Like, oh, probably should have kept that
kid probably shouldn't have kept that kid or things like that.
But you've got I mean, we we really get in
the thick of things kind of June and July because
a lot of them end their club season in May,
so we don't get that much time even leading up
the season to do evaluation. So it's all right, here's
(16:38):
what we're dealt figure out, where's our strengths? What can
we match together? You know? And I like that challenge.
It's a little bit different than the club world.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
You know.
Speaker 7 (16:48):
I was in that for years and stepped back from it.
You don't get to take your time and like slowly
implement things and work on things. You've got to figure out. Okay,
here's what I'm delp What formation suits them? Where can
I best pull their strengths?
Speaker 6 (17:06):
You know, what weaknesses do I need to hide?
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Right?
Speaker 7 (17:09):
And be creative in your tactics sometimes based on don't
have a strong off attacking team, right, we're just parking
the bus all season and playing for the counter, right,
So just the constant wheels have to be turning as
a high school coach, in my opinion, because your team's
ever evolving.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
Yeah, question I like to ask every coach.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
It's on the program, is how much time do you
spend either working on game planning for your next opponent?
Speaker 4 (17:34):
Are you working more on what your kids are doing
and you're going to home what we do best?
Speaker 3 (17:40):
Are you kind of scout and find what their weakness
is and try to like exploit what their weakness is
more than working on what you do, Like how much
is there is there a balance there?
Speaker 4 (17:50):
Or do you just say, look, here's what we do.
Speaker 3 (17:53):
We're gonna practice it to death and we're gonna get
really good at it. Or if you're playing a team
that might have a weak link, you're like, Okay, we're
gonna switch our game plan to attack something different every game,
you know?
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Does that make sense?
Speaker 6 (18:04):
Love that question.
Speaker 7 (18:06):
It's definitely year to year, but I would say overall,
it's more so just making sure like we are really
effing good at our style of play and then maybe
giving them one or two nuggets of like, hey, here's
where our opponent is weak for this, you know, cause
again we're sometimes we've got three games in a week,
so it's like you get a practice in between a
(18:27):
Tuesday and Thursday game, So it's not like you can
spend all week leading up to a Friday night football game,
working tactics and game planning. So usually we're just pounding,
like hell our style of play. And then you know,
occasionally when we're playing an opponent that needs to be respected,
we're looking at one, two, maybe three things that we
(18:49):
need to be cognitive condy seat of in their attack
or how to attack them.
Speaker 6 (18:54):
I'll be honest to you.
Speaker 7 (18:55):
Oh gosh, twenty twenty, I think after our big talented
had graduated, we had a weeker year, and I'll tell
you what. We game planned that hell out of every
game because we had to mark our shit quite a bit.
So it was understanding we have we have a lot
of weaknesses, like.
Speaker 6 (19:15):
How are we going to match up to just get
some kind of draw here?
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Yeah, that's awesome.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
It's got to be hard because the coaching style has
to be different from high school than if you're coaching
a club team for example.
Speaker 4 (19:26):
Right, you touched on that briefly, but you.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
Know you said you kind of three games in a week.
I mean, every coach knows you get better in practice
like that. That's gotta be tough to like just work
on things that you need to do well.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
You know, that's that's different because you're right, you only
have them.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
For a couple of months, and I'm sure they're all
getting coached by their club coaches too, So how do
you balance that in practice where you're like they're getting
they might get a technical, you know, a technique being
taught by their club coach that you know you might
be doing something that doesn't always mesh with what they're
being taught by their head coach.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
But Martin doesn't strink together two good questions like this,
So let's embrace this for a second.
Speaker 7 (20:12):
Yeah, you'll get credit where it's due here, I would
say it's a it's a beautiful balance. And again I
would like to think I'm one of the rare coaches
from a high school perspective, and I will say the
the tide is changing as kind of.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
New coaches come in, especially in the younger.
Speaker 7 (20:30):
Side, who have played at a higher level and are
now taking over teams understanding the importance of like the
recovery side too, because you know, on three game weeks,
like that's a lot of wear and tear. And so
a lot of club coaches right who our haters on
the high school game will say, well, it's just too
much on your bodies, Like you're not going to ever
(20:51):
get anything out of it, You're just going to get injured.
And I'm like, well, that's a little disrespectful for somebody
who actually like prioritizes that and understands, like, yeah, I
want to get X, Y and Z accomplished technically, tactically, whatever,
But like if I don't have healthy players, how the
hell am I gonna.
Speaker 6 (21:06):
Play a game.
Speaker 7 (21:07):
So like it's the fine balance of like, yeah, we
might you know, I might be pissed at you and
I just want to run your ass and you know,
drill on X, Y and Z, But like we've got
another big game tomorrow, so like I have to balance that, right,
put some work in.
Speaker 6 (21:21):
Ease off, get some recovery.
Speaker 7 (21:24):
I'd like to think from a you know, a technical perspective,
like the technique side of things. I'm aligned with a
lot of the higher level club coaches. Obviously tactically, right,
there could be different nuances. I might say something different
or same principle just a different way than their club coach.
So usually that first month is like crash course into
(21:45):
especially the newer players.
Speaker 6 (21:47):
What's my language? How do I speak? Most of my returners.
Speaker 7 (21:50):
Right know what to expect and can shift the brain
a little bit quicker.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
So so like coach, someone comes up to you and says,
my coach just said, hey, all you should It was
big kicks, right, Like how do you handle that situation?
Someone's so fucking wrong, Like.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
I'm just trying to do with my dad.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
My mom yelled big kick at me, and I just
pun it.
Speaker 7 (22:11):
Usually those are the players I cut anyway, So I
don't really get that question.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
I know, I know Bret Scott's up to juicy for you,
but I want to come back to determining your roster. So, Brett,
what do you got?
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Well, you brought up recovery before, and I know probably
in the last three four years of by coaching career,
I really started diving into the topic of the whole
sports science behind everything. And I'm curious, as someone who
is somewhat younger played you finished college in what twenty twelve, thirteen, I.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
Thought you were seeing you were somewhat younger.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
No, no, no, no, no, no, Britchett is what I'm
talking about.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
It.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Yeah, I think, yes, she's she's.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
On the on the younger side of the coaches. We've
had on And the reason I'm asking this is, at
what point or what kind of changed your philosophy on
recovery and the whole kind of sports science and and
keeping the athletes healthy, Because I know over the last
few years we tried to do the same thing, and
(23:15):
I think it's seeing some some good benefits.
Speaker 6 (23:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (23:21):
I think if I had just stopped at the collegiate
level and that was like the end of my career,
maybe I'd approach my coaching style a little bit different.
But I know one I mean, I guess rewind plugged
with a decent amount of injuries in high school. I
was a dual sport basketball and soccer. My back was
(23:42):
always a train.
Speaker 6 (23:43):
Wreck, so.
Speaker 7 (23:46):
I didn't know how to manage my body as a
high schooler. I like, sure, doctor told me to stretch great, Okay,
piss off, Like that's the last thing I want to
do as a high schooler, right, But I believe that Like, Okay,
if i'm if, I'm giving that messaging every day as
their coach and their leading voice kind of in that
time frame, and I'm forcing them to do it right.
(24:06):
The proper warm ups, the proper cool downs, Like we
don't walk off of the field, even if it means
we're fifteen minutes late, like until we get a decent
cool down. So, like I know, especially from injury experience,
but then also kind of the latter part of my
playing career, just the importance of it. I mean, these
these ladies are still developing, right, Like.
Speaker 6 (24:27):
I'm dealing with.
Speaker 7 (24:30):
Fifteen to eighteen year old high schoolers who have hormones
out the breaking ass and like.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Their bodies are really changing, right, They're getting hips. I mean,
their their hips are widening, and that that changes everything.
I mean, I'm I'm not being you know, downtrodden on them,
but signes.
Speaker 6 (24:45):
Yeah, it's true, it's true.
Speaker 7 (24:47):
And so you know, especially my ladies who we consistently
have Division one, Division two graduates every single year. So
if I'm going to set them up the best way
I can, like I can't, I can't control their club coach.
What I can control is what I'm doing for them
while I've got them in my program. And I just
know the benefits of that recovery piece of the proper
(25:07):
warm ups cool down, So it's it's beneficial. If coaches
aren't implementing it in some fashion, shame on them.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
So let's say you play Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday. How does
that you know you have that that weird week. What
do those Wednesdays and Fridays look for you as as
a workout regimen.
Speaker 6 (25:24):
Yeah, Fridays are always light.
Speaker 7 (25:26):
We usually smash our time in right before football comes
on the field anyway, So that's more of a technical day, right,
getting lots of touches in the ball, some some finishing
side of things more more so like hey, heart rate up,
break a light sweat, do an extended cool down, get
out of there.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Especially, are are you working? Are you working set pieces
on that? I mean, are you working on alignments?
Speaker 7 (25:47):
And yep, yep, so set pieces fallowing those days. The
Wednesdays always is dependent upon him. We have a week,
your opponent on that Thursday, maybe I can push them
a little bit more, but say, you know, we've got
a I know, kills and they were playing a Mason
smashed together like it's probably a little bit lighter on
that Wednesday too. Again, that's where I'm probably doing a
little bit more tactical work. Here's how we need a
(26:09):
game plan so week to week, but usually we try
to lighten up as the week goes on.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
So set piece for the people out there to know
what to set pieces. Talk to me, because talk to me.
Speaker 7 (26:19):
Gosh, anything from corner kicks right from free kicks outside
the eighteen right, those are your dangerous areas. So when
we're talking set piece, it's defending but then also attacking them.
We've got two players on the ball who have wicked
services this year, so we've scored quite a bit off
some set pieces, whether it's directly or you know, a
(26:41):
great ball in for an assist. So we've got players
who are hungry in the box, which helps especially on
set pieces. But we've got some quality services that are
being sent into So.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
Give me some other I'm a big language guy. I'm
a huge culture guy, So tell me about some language.
I need some one. We just dropped set piece. So
if you're sitting there in the car, welcome and you're well,
you're welcome, thank you, but you just said it, you
got of like non shot and just kept going. But
give me some other soccer terminology that we can talk about,
so I can say like, and I feel like I
(27:14):
know a little bit because my daughter played a little
traffic travel soccer.
Speaker 7 (27:19):
You're not talking the language that I dropped after our
loss on Monday.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Right at that?
Speaker 2 (27:26):
At that lingo?
Speaker 1 (27:27):
Wi soccer lingo?
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Yeah, soccer jargon.
Speaker 6 (27:32):
Gosh, what do we got?
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Well, you don't play on a field, You play on
the pitch.
Speaker 6 (27:38):
Right, so we're on the pitch. We've got sep You.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Don't wear a uniform. You don't wear a uniform, you
wear a.
Speaker 6 (27:44):
Right, it's a kit. Yeah, you gotta wear a kit.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
What's a give and go?
Speaker 7 (27:49):
A give and go like a little well, like this
is like a bango, so like that's an old school
soccer term, right.
Speaker 6 (27:55):
Bango, which is basically just like end line.
Speaker 7 (27:58):
You know, I'm attacking the inline and I'm serving it
back across the goal for a one time finished.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
What about one two? Is it one two? Same as
a bengu one two?
Speaker 6 (28:06):
Yeah, one two, give and go?
Speaker 2 (28:08):
What about a shutout?
Speaker 6 (28:10):
Shut out? Yeah? Clean sheet yet?
Speaker 2 (28:15):
Right?
Speaker 7 (28:16):
I cared about that as a defender, right, I want
clean sheets.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
It's no shots on frame. But I would say we
we use a number system, which usually I mean, if
you don't know.
Speaker 7 (28:27):
Soccer, it's like, oh, I thought they were a defender,
or I thought they were a midfielder. Well, our midfielder,
Like the number ten that's our attacking mid. The number
six that's our defensive mid. We'll play with a dual
ten system, right, I've got two attacking mids that I
keep high in the attack my pivot right, so my
my number six, my defensive mid.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Your language is everyone's language, a.
Speaker 7 (28:53):
Little bit of mine, but like pretty pretty common in
the soccer world. Yeah, so like the number system a
little bit newer, but like I mean, hell right, we
all know Europe's play beyond us anyway, They've been doing
it for the last two decades, two centuries probably, but
you know, whole number system. You'll hear it a lot
more from your collegiate coaches. I'm not sure it depends
(29:15):
on the high school coach right where maybe their age
and what they're they've been exposed to. But yeah, just
there's there's some lingo for you, right, terminology numbers.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Ye love it, God so big.
Speaker 4 (29:28):
Coach Coach Wilder.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
Part of the reason we wanted to have you on
was also to highlight your program and the kids, right,
So talk about your current season, maybe some of your leaders,
who are the kids on the team that are you
know that are having a good year, or any any
of the you know's let's let's talk about your program.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Markin can I Can I interrupt because I wanted to
ask this question earlier. I'm curious about this because you're
one of the few, and we'll get into that because
I think that's so important, but wanted to get before
the seasons started. I want to know, like, you're one
of the few sports that have the like cut some players,
and we have like I think basketball does. I think
(30:06):
in some sports sometimes some schools, like maybe volleyball does. Yeah,
and so you're one of the few sports that has
to do that. And I talked to coaches like, hey,
you know what, if you don't know who your roster
is as a varsity coach, you're not doing your job right.
You don't know, like if you really like don't know, Hey,
I got my my so how many to carry? Twenty
twenty one, twenty two?
Speaker 7 (30:26):
Yeah, usually we get twenty two allotted for roster, but
varsity I usually keep around eighteen.
Speaker 2 (30:31):
But you probably know, like, hey, these are gonna be
my sixteen for sure, there might be some swing people whatever,
but walk me through that experience, especially maybe at the
younger age. So if someone that's like wanting to get
to know you they're the junior high level, and like, hey,
talk to me a little bit about what that looks
like coming on into the high school.
Speaker 7 (30:48):
Yeah, and that's I mean, honestly a great segue into
kind of leading into what this year is too for us,
you know, we to your point, Yeah, typically know, from
a varsity level, Hey here my core fourteen fifteen sixteen players, right,
always depends on what our graduating class looked like the
year before, where they large were we just losing a handful?
(31:11):
You know, we we typically have some eyes on a
few JV players that we're like, okay, hey, we know
they needed just one more year to develop and they're
gonna be on Varcie next year. But July is a
tough month where like we're just trying to be in
any kind of preseason game scrimmage, mess with formations personnel
to figure out to your point, those last like four players,
(31:33):
like who's gonna round out the roster? You know, a
rule of thumb I always have and I tell people
in our program this in February when we first kind
of have our meeting of Hey, whoever's interested, come get
some info. If you are a junior, I'm probably not
keeping you on JB unless it's for some reason that like, hey, position, yeah, right,
(31:59):
but junior varsity is there for development. If I've got
a junior who is equally talented to a sophomore and
you're the same position, guess who.
Speaker 6 (32:08):
I'm keeping software. So you know, I make that pretty clear.
Speaker 7 (32:13):
And i'd tell parents, like, this is a competitive program
in Cincinnati. If you want to go somewhere else by
all means like no disrespect, but we're competitive here.
Speaker 6 (32:21):
We have to make cuts.
Speaker 7 (32:22):
I mean, we consistently get sixty plus girls coming out
for forty four max spots, so we have to cut
every year.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Do you have a freshman team or just jbnvarsity?
Speaker 1 (32:33):
We do not.
Speaker 7 (32:33):
Yeah, we had freshman team, gosh, maybe twenty years ago
at this point, but just two teams.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Gotcha gotcham so forty so you had sixty for about forty.
So you're cutting a decent amount. Yeah, and that's it.
And I will say that you have the benefit of
I used to be a baseball coach. I don't know
if you knew that, but you have the benefit of
playing like during I think you might have some storms
and some summer storms, but you have fields that are
pretty much well open, you'll you'll have to run. And
(32:59):
two Coach Bolden there like he was gonna be you know,
having on seven on sevens and things like that. Right,
I'm sure that he's following the rules, say, making sure
that he's not and then the sleeves are cut off
and everything else like that. But but but like you
have a good time, Like in baseball, it's hard because
you don't have a chance to see everybody like you're
you're in the gym, like you're watching them take swings
(33:22):
off and in cages. It's hard. It's hard to do.
But yeah, I think that that's kind of a struggle
when you kind of said, hey, you know we we
kind of make mistakes, so we kind of see some
things and I think it's hard and sometimes yeah.
Speaker 6 (33:33):
I mean you're right.
Speaker 7 (33:34):
I mean we we do get the luxury of that
in the summers, so you know, we're not balancing as
much from a school year school load perspective during those
initial tryout basis yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
So and uh, Chuck Laman used to make the comment
He's like, you know, it'd be a Monday. He's like,
we've got pictures scheduled for Friday, and I haven't been
outside yet to see who you can track a fly ball? Right,
trying to select a JV baseball team, I don't even
know if these kids can track a fly ball because
we were in the gym, right. Oh yeah, soccer is
(34:06):
a different animal, being able to play outside in the summer.
Speaker 2 (34:09):
My assistant coach, my assistant coach from time to time
would be sitting there. You see that guy, old man
over there. I'm like, yeah, he wasn't old. He was
like thirty or forty years old. He goes, I made
him to a and to a great tennis player. I'm like, really,
I didn't know you coached tennis because it didn't. I
cut him from baseball and I'm like, here you go.
That makes sense.
Speaker 8 (34:26):
See that guy over there, it's like he was a
great track code, he was a great track player.
Speaker 2 (34:29):
It's like, oh, really, you you coach track? Nope, cut
him from baseball. Like oh my god, that's good. Five.
Speaker 7 (34:35):
Yeah, that's so true that our cross country team decently
well a handful of times.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
LA sALS one of the La sALS all time best
cross country state runner as a guy with named a
Doug Bakensteady didn't make the soccer team, didn't make the
soccer turn So true, so true. So Martin asked you
a question. I don't want to steal Martin thunder, but
he asked you about your roster and kind of where
you were.
Speaker 6 (34:58):
Yeah, yeah, talking about.
Speaker 4 (34:59):
Kids love it.
Speaker 7 (35:01):
Well, we're uh, we're pretty young and in by in that,
I mean, we've got a very very talented junior fuss,
a handful of sophomores on the roster that are our future. Basically,
you know, no disrespect to our senior class, but like
we've got two pivotal seniors honestly, the you know, the
(35:22):
other two are stepping up in a big way too,
which has been a nice surprise of like really filling
bigger roles than initially anticipated. So it's nice to see
them kind of take on that challenge their senior year.
But really, I mean, we've got a junior and sophomore
class and then two freaking stud freshmen. I mean they
come up to my waist, their tiny but like they're
(35:43):
just wour horses.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
What are their names? What are their names?
Speaker 7 (35:47):
Darcy Bitlinger, Uh, she's a number ten, right, She's an
attacking mid she is she is well beyond her year.
She is actually a very very fun player to watch,
unsuspecting little redhead, short little bob. I just you if
you were to look at her like just standing there,
You're like, I mean, who's this kid? Right? And then
(36:10):
she comes out and you're just like, holy shit, you
are beyond your years. Like technically, tactically, how she thinks
her movement off the ball. She's very fun to watch.
And then another freshman who again up.
Speaker 6 (36:24):
To my waist.
Speaker 7 (36:25):
But she is feisty as all get out and she's
again an attacking player, so she's just I mean, she
back presses for us, She's all.
Speaker 6 (36:35):
Over the place.
Speaker 7 (36:36):
So yeah, we we had to replace an entire a
whole senior back line and goalkeeper from last year. So
coming into this season that was kind of our tall
task is like who the hell is gonna fill a
pivotal part of our team again being a defender too,
I was kind of panicking, like coh boy, like we
(36:58):
I've got to really lock in this some stuff and
do some serious coaching.
Speaker 1 (37:03):
You know.
Speaker 7 (37:03):
We had a senior shift back who was normally an
attacker and she stepped up in a big way. We
had a sophomore who was on JB last year. Mature
in a positive way, right and really step into another
large role for us. So our back line has come
together very nicely. We've got a great team on the field.
I will say our goalkeeping is lacking, which is unfortunate, right,
(37:27):
but thankfully we're dangerous in the attack.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
So I'm just like, hey, score, we're gonna let some up.
Speaker 7 (37:33):
Right, but we'll put more in the back of the
net than other teams and that's gonna you know, we
won't have as.
Speaker 6 (37:39):
Many clean sheets this year as mine.
Speaker 2 (37:42):
Defense.
Speaker 7 (37:43):
Yeah, my defensive heart would like but write a win
to win absolutely.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Now. When when we were talking earlier, and that's one
of the questions, you said, you have two freshmen. You said, right, correct, yep,
playing up and you said, hey, we're sneaky, Like we're
gonna be sneaky. We're going to focus on that development.
What are some of the things that you're looking through,
like get better, Like you're almost more excited about the
back half as you're developing these these still.
Speaker 7 (38:09):
Yes, mainly the back line, right, we had to match
together for people who've never played together before, which back
lines a lot of chemistry, knowing how to read off
here's how they defend. Here's how I need to cover,
Here's what I Here's how I need to introduce myself
into the attack to So I think the back half
(38:31):
of the season, I mean, we're already showing just incredible
combination play and the ability to finish the ball and
now kind of putting that last piece in of feeling
like really solid from a back line perspective, you know,
less holding my breath moments of are we getting to
that ball or not? I think that's really when we
(38:54):
kind of hit this. This thick of the middle part
of our season is where I'm excited to see what
can we string together and gave the game.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
So another thing that and you and I have known
each other for a little bit, and I don't know
if you remember me teasing you about soccer coaches in general,
just because of and Brett and Martin. You've been around,
You've seeing them coach, especially in the high school and
like the clubs, they don't move like and I've seen
pictures of coach Wilder here just like wearing the joggers,
(39:24):
and she kills the joggers. She's got the drip on
like just looks amazing. And then like has her hands
in the pockets like it's just sitting there like everything
that happens, like she knows exactly what's gonna happen, which
is just amazing.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
She's the Sean Miller of soccer.
Speaker 2 (39:40):
And I don't know that nervous cough. He's like up
and down. Yeah, I don't think so. I don't think
she's She's a lot smoother. But that's like in general,
like every soccer coach, high school club, they're sitting on
their chair, they're sitting back. Every once in a while
they stand up. To be a soccer coach, your heartbeat
(40:01):
must beat like twenty times a minute because it's so cool.
Like in football you've got guys throwing off the getting people.
Speaker 4 (40:07):
Hey, Bridget, that was a baseball coach sat on.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
A bucket of seat.
Speaker 3 (40:13):
And he wore the freaking uniform with wristbands.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Liked weird.
Speaker 1 (40:22):
That's a great point, Martin, that's a great point. Woorror uniform, Bridget,
Why don't you wear a uniform? But still it's different.
Speaker 7 (40:32):
It's I mean, are you yourself in the game, like
what you never know?
Speaker 2 (40:38):
You never know. I like to take a hefty cut
right the bush, but run but no, I think that
it's I think who knows, it's tradition. It's the oldest sport,
Like I don't.
Speaker 4 (40:50):
Know, it's the oldest sport.
Speaker 2 (40:54):
Yeah, in the United States, according to three year letterman
Jesus Impenitent. So my my point is kind of like
h and I'm razing you a little bit, But it's
it's amazing to watch soccer coaches coach because they're playing
chess where the rest of the population is even like
(41:19):
I would say checkers. But anythink below that, how hard
is that to communicate? Yeah? How how how hard is
that to communicate? Sometimes because for for coolest parents like myself,
when my daughter was playing playing soccer at a young age,
you had no idea what was going on. You heard
things like hey, carry it, you know, and do all
(41:41):
those different things. What does that mean? And thank god
I had a really good coach because they he would
literally send emails to us on Sunday saying this is
what I said, this is what I meant, And it
was really really cool in that perspective. But you know,
when you when you sit there, what are you looking for?
Are there any mid game changes or anything else like that?
Or hey, I know that we this is our defensive strategy.
(42:02):
We're gonna change this up. This is our alignment, We're
gonna change this up. Walk me through a little bit
of that in game strategy.
Speaker 7 (42:07):
Yeah, I'm mean, I'll tell you what I did coach
basketball for a few years before I had taken over
the program in my basketball coaching style, right way, different
way different. I mean, my shit is, you know, defensive,
you know, shuffling up and down that sideline with them.
You know, I'm my heart rate is going much faster
than twenty beats a minute.
Speaker 6 (42:28):
Right, But to your point, it's like different game, different way.
Speaker 7 (42:32):
You have to approach the coaching right, Like you've got
to be locked in, ready to call the time out,
ready to quickly draw up the out of bounds play.
With soccer, it's like, hey, we put the prep in,
Like I can't call a timeout, so like I have
to be able to see the changes, read the changes.
Using most of my coaching is Yeah, I mean, I'll
(42:53):
get up and I'll be yelling instructions a handful of times,
or you know, if somebody needs their assitude for a
quick minute, like I'm not afraid to do it. But
most of the coaching is hey, me walking to the
players on the bench and communicating when you go in
this change needs to be made. This is what the
areas we need to be focusing on attacking because a
little bit right it is chess where it's like I
(43:15):
can't also show my hand by just yelling the instructions
clear across the field too, because now I allow the
other coach to be making the adjustments. You know, I
don't have a headset. I don't have the mics into
the head to the helmet. So it's giving the players
on the bench the instruction. Hey, here's what I'm seeing.
And I'm questioning them too, like do you see this?
(43:37):
And then like okay, how.
Speaker 6 (43:38):
Do we fix that?
Speaker 7 (43:40):
They brought Ford to their midfield. We only have three
in our midfield. How do we play defensively now? So
like getting them to be actively engaged with the bench,
the problem solving, so that when it's their turn to
go in the field, they're not three steps behind mentally
they are, you know, the game plan.
Speaker 6 (43:56):
They have to be seeing and reading.
Speaker 7 (43:57):
Okay, here's my position, here's what I need to be
doing on both sides of the ball. So and then yeah,
a lot of the adjustments come at halftime where it's
we need to continue to stay with our game plan
and clean up these areas, or hey, here's how we
have to adjust based on what we saw. Thankfully, we
typically get higher level players who can read some of
(44:19):
that already on the field. But that's what a lot
of our instruction comes in practices to is forcing them
to critically think and not just always have a game plan,
but to understand why do we do certain things.
Speaker 6 (44:34):
When this is thrown at you.
Speaker 7 (44:36):
What are some solutions you have, Like, we have an
entire like a decision making tree. So when we have
the ball, here's our decision making tree, you know. First
step go to goal right. Second step, keep possessions, spray
it wide. Third step, find our pivot right.
Speaker 6 (44:53):
That means like swing the ball back kind of reset
ourselves defensively.
Speaker 7 (44:57):
We have a decision making tree which we give the ladies,
you know, win the ball back right, keep them turned,
certain things like that so that way they know, here's
what I have to be doing and thinking as I'm playing.
Speaker 2 (45:10):
Love it. It's so much more development than just like preparation.
Speaker 6 (45:13):
So yep, yep.
Speaker 1 (45:15):
So you mentioned, you know, four defenders, what typical alignment
to do do you guys play and do you try
to keep the same alignment year to year game to game?
Does it totally change? I'll be totally transparent. Okay, and
Pat understands this. I started learning my knowledge of soccer
(45:36):
about two and a half years ago. Okay. I started
watching on Amazon. There was a special about the Arsenal gunners,
and I fell in love with them. And now I
watch I watch every Arsenal match and I try to
pay attention to it. I really, I'm trying to learn
more and more. They play a four to three three alignment.
I can. I know what that means. I know where
all the players are and everything. But what are you
(45:56):
guys doing? And how hard is it to change on
the fly, Like you said, and you said, you have
high i Q girls. How hard is it to get
them to change alignments if you need to?
Speaker 6 (46:05):
Yeah, well, first of all, you want lose and Chelsea,
you cut out there what you say, I said, you're
you're watching the wrong team. First of all, you need
to be watching WHOA.
Speaker 1 (46:20):
If you've if you've, if you not had access to
the EPL table lately, I mean over the last three years.
Speaker 6 (46:26):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 7 (46:28):
Table, listen, it's valid. I like I have to take
that and just like just take it on the chin
because Chelsea has just underwel sucked.
Speaker 1 (46:38):
They've sucked. Just say it. They very underwellming. I mean,
if you want, Pat and I will take you down
to the pitch this weekend, I mean for for the
Arsenal man City game.
Speaker 2 (46:46):
If you want, we can show you pictures. We were
there fans of the month.
Speaker 1 (46:50):
Yes, okay, back to the situation at hand, here we go.
Speaker 7 (46:53):
What do you got yeah, uh no, But to your question, yes,
we at least this year are in primarily a four
three three, so pretty standard. That is like the go
to formation that a lot of clubs play too. So
you know, the girls are very used to that formation
where they need to be positionally responsibilities in the in
(47:15):
the past, we've had personnel to be able to play
a three five to two, so three in the back,
you know, kind of similar to FC Cincinnati, not that
that's a great reference right now either with their success,
but uh, three center backs, you know, to two wingbacks
who just are workhorses and can get up and down
the end of the attack, and then you know to
(47:37):
two forwards up top so we've had personnel that suit
that very well.
Speaker 6 (47:43):
I'm I love that formation.
Speaker 7 (47:44):
I think you can do so much with it from
an attacking perspective, from overloads, you know, shifting and unbalancing
a defense. The tactical side of the game is where
I really enjoy. Like I like the chess match, I
like the the problem sol But yeah, four through three
and that's usually our fail safe. You know, we always
(48:05):
implement that because we know ninety nine percent of our
girls are coming in with that knowledge. But it changes
year to hear, right, understanding where's our strengths. Knowing majority
of the other high school teams are playing a standard
four three three, uh, we always look to figure out, hey,
how can we disadvantage them by our formation from the start?
Speaker 2 (48:28):
Coach, you haven't always been a coach? Talk to me
a little bit about and we talked about your amazing bio,
the long bio, and talk to me about like baby Bridge,
Like what was that about? Like what sports were involved in?
Have you always wanted to be a coach? Talk to
me a little bit about that.
Speaker 9 (48:46):
Yeah, at what point did you say you know you're
in college You're like, okay, I want to turn this
into a career and you know, teach the game rather
than you know, get a job in and obviously we
have a job as well, but yeah.
Speaker 2 (49:00):
Yeah, right, and you're blonde. You could have stayed in
Sweden and just hung out in the hills, right, So.
Speaker 7 (49:10):
I would say, I mean, I think, you know, I
was very fortunate to always be in leadership positions throughout
my career, whether that's was you know, within the soccer field,
whether that was academically.
Speaker 6 (49:25):
Other things like that.
Speaker 7 (49:26):
So I don't know if I ever had the pipe
dream right of becoming a coach, but I think naturally,
over the course of my career and just growing up, right,
I learned and understood a lot of those managerial handling personalities,
(49:46):
having to communicate and reach different people that don't think
like me. So I think that set me up well
to then become like.
Speaker 6 (49:56):
Or to have coaching as an option.
Speaker 7 (49:59):
Really, I knew I wanted to stay involved in the
sport of soccer somehow when I had hung up the
cleats myself, I didn't know what that looked like. And
quite honestly, I had gotten back in twenty sixteen and
the AD approached me. He was like, hey, like, you're
twenty five. I understand I might get a lot of
flak for this because of your age and your lack
(50:22):
of coaching experience.
Speaker 3 (50:24):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (50:24):
He was like, but jobs your yours, if you want it.
You know, alumni playing career, proven track record of success.
Speaker 2 (50:32):
Five Yeah, yeah, I mean real nervous it I mean
twenty five. I mean I was nervous as shit.
Speaker 7 (50:40):
Yeah, I mean I hadn't coached players beyond the age
of twelve. Yeah, you know, because I would coach some teams,
especially when I was abroad or you know, within some
of my playing career, like you know, supplemental. But I
had to now quickly figure out Like I was like, sure,
this is exciting.
Speaker 6 (51:00):
I'm nervous as hell.
Speaker 7 (51:02):
But then I had to figure out, oh crap, like
this whole, this whole program's mine, Like how do I
do this right?
Speaker 6 (51:09):
Thankfully?
Speaker 1 (51:10):
Uh?
Speaker 7 (51:10):
You know, for the few months I was home in
between playing abroad is when I was coaching with good
old Andy Fishman, you know, basketball for La Couta Wes.
So I had learned some nuggets there, just as you
know a JV coach, but learned some things, and then
when I took over the program, it was figuring out. Okay,
I have all this knowledge, I know how the game
(51:31):
should be played, How in the hell do I break
it down and teach it every day?
Speaker 1 (51:37):
Like?
Speaker 7 (51:37):
How do I get this master vision that I've got
and the end goal?
Speaker 6 (51:42):
I know what the end goal is.
Speaker 7 (51:44):
How do I break that down to high schoolers who
are all over the map on their talent and get
the most out of them? So, yeah, first first two years,
we're learning a lot of learning.
Speaker 6 (51:55):
What do I get a tweak? Well, it's working? What's
not so?
Speaker 2 (51:58):
And I'm sure you look back in those like it's
head coach for eight or nine years now, you probably
look back and say, oh gosh, look at these the
youths that the mistakes that were made my youth. And
and you know, Brett was a quarterback in college, and
he was so used to explaining things to like like
the team, like this is what we wanted to do offensively.
I was a catcher, and so I kind of was
in charge of the defense. Martin worked a blockbuster for
(52:20):
a long long time and was able to like recommend movies,
and so he was able to coach people in those ways.
So each of us call him with a different coaching experience.
I'm kidding about Blockbuster Martin It Network. It was a
network video. But absolutely was there anybody that influenced you
played growing up as far as being a coach when
you look at it even today, is there there influence?
(52:42):
Like God, I love them the way that they coach, inspire,
tactically do their job.
Speaker 7 (52:50):
And it kind of cut out, but I presume, like
you know, kind of who are who are some of
influential people? Right? Yeah, okay, I would say my high
school coach from a love of the game perspective, So
my high school soccer coach. You know, I was back
and forth between high school or uh soccer and basketball.
I was deciding what do I want to pursue college
(53:12):
as basketball?
Speaker 2 (53:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (53:14):
Three guard? Come on?
Speaker 7 (53:15):
You just sometimes go in at sometimes go in at
the at the four. Your girl had some hops so
I could get up and rebalance. Yes, yeah, yeah, So
I think.
Speaker 6 (53:28):
My high school soccer coach.
Speaker 7 (53:32):
Just reminded me that, like, you can enjoy a sport
while getting really good at it and having success. And
I think that influenced a lot of why I chose
to come back and coach at the high school level
and say, I really don't want to be a part
of the club level because I know the impact that
my high school team had on me and just what
(53:52):
it did for my high school experience, the community, of
the camaraderie, the.
Speaker 6 (53:59):
It's just a different view of the game.
Speaker 7 (54:02):
Then you get from the club grind for the remainder
of the nine months, Like club is there.
Speaker 6 (54:08):
It serves a purpose.
Speaker 7 (54:09):
You get recruited through club, you get to enjoy soccer
and friendships and Friday night lights and things like that.
Speaker 6 (54:18):
Because of high school soccer, you don't.
Speaker 7 (54:20):
Play a single club game, with the exception of maybe
one or two showcases underneath lights.
Speaker 6 (54:27):
You don't do it. It's a different atmosphere.
Speaker 7 (54:31):
And I think that's really where it stemmed is from
the enjoyment aspect.
Speaker 6 (54:35):
My high school coach.
Speaker 7 (54:37):
I'll tell you what my overseas coaches though, I mean shit,
I learned so much from them in terms of how
to tactically implement things or looking at things differently. I
would say my experience overseas was invaluable.
Speaker 1 (54:53):
Is it because of what you said earlier about Europe
being just way ahead of the United States?
Speaker 6 (54:59):
I think so even just how they do they.
Speaker 1 (55:02):
Just see the game differently over there.
Speaker 7 (55:05):
Yeah, and their approach to a training session was different
than I ever experienced in the States. It was preparation,
it was work great, but like there was way more
just playing overseas than there was this drill to this
(55:27):
drill to this drill to this drill.
Speaker 6 (55:30):
I mean granted, at that.
Speaker 7 (55:32):
Point, right you've got the best of the best, so
there's less teaching per se. But yeah, it was I
do think because the education on the coaching side is
just here versus here.
Speaker 2 (55:45):
I'm glad we segued into this because wait on the
line is your coach from Sweden, So we're gonna bring
her in now. I wish that would that have been,
you know, awesome, Like you looked at me like what coach? What? Like,
what's going on?
Speaker 1 (55:59):
Like unbelievable?
Speaker 2 (56:03):
Oh god, you would have been like, this is the
greatest podcast of all time if we had coachfinddle. So
what does coach and coach do for fun?
Speaker 6 (56:13):
Gosh?
Speaker 7 (56:15):
Right now we're we're hanging out with the with the
one year old. That's that's the fun these days. So no,
but I still I still play already already one already
crazy right wow? Yeah, uh no, I still get out
and kick around. I still do indoor coed So that's
my uh over at uh well, uh soccer city, so
(56:37):
your neck of the woods and then uh water Sundays hanging.
Yeah right, good old Barnesburg.
Speaker 1 (56:44):
Yeah, let us.
Speaker 6 (56:46):
Know a few pictures down there.
Speaker 2 (56:48):
I'm sure, I'm sure that's awesome. That's awesome. Uh So
here comes the hardest And we always say the hardest
for for the last, just because you're probably in a
good mood and now it's gonna get tremendously worse, because
this is when I think Martin has got it this week.
Speaker 8 (57:07):
And yes, and the best thing about Martin he might
stop at seven. Who knows he might get thirteen questions?
Who knows you might just get bored and stop every two?
Speaker 6 (57:18):
Bring it on?
Speaker 3 (57:19):
But nine question number one, Coach Wilder.
Speaker 4 (57:26):
On a scale of one to ten, how good are
you at keeping secrets?
Speaker 2 (57:31):
Ten?
Speaker 4 (57:32):
Ten? Your A vaults? I love it. I'm not even
gonna ask why number two.
Speaker 3 (57:38):
Okay, we started getting out all of our like fall
decorations and our Halloween stuff because Halloween's like my favorite
holiday bar none. What's your favorite Halloween costume as a kid?
Speaker 10 (57:50):
Oh trash bag glued those little mini like travel cereal
box just to it.
Speaker 6 (58:01):
Yeah, put knives in them. Love it cheap as he
get out?
Speaker 2 (58:08):
Would you guys? Remember the mask that we used to
wear and it used to hard ones, the hard with
the like it had like the staples in the side
of the and it used to wear it and you
couldn't gave you like the smallest little slip for your
mouth to breathe through. And it was the work. It
costs like five but that was the you. If you
(58:29):
had one of those costumes, you were in, you were in. Yep,
it was the best effort and it broke twenty seconds.
Speaker 3 (58:37):
I don't think so, all right, coach, Next question, what's
your favorite cuss word?
Speaker 4 (58:44):
Do you do you drop cuss words while you're coaching
or are you trying to get I do? It's hard
not to write.
Speaker 6 (58:49):
I know it's hard not to.
Speaker 2 (58:51):
It's passion.
Speaker 6 (58:52):
So I'll tell you what the.
Speaker 4 (58:55):
You don't have to say it, you can just like
what what you know?
Speaker 2 (58:57):
What?
Speaker 7 (58:57):
It starts with no, I'll so the forward in Swedish
is fond and mother effort is f fond. So when
I'm like, especially under the breath right when I want
to yell at across the field. I just cush and
cussing Swedish and nobody has I mean, they just think
I'm an idiot and have no idea what I'm saying,
(59:18):
which is fine, yeah yeah, but I I unfortunately do
drop that occasionally.
Speaker 4 (59:25):
That makes a lot of sense coming. I grew up
in a in a like a bilingual house.
Speaker 3 (59:30):
My mom was Arabic, so I know a lot of
Arabic cuss words, right, So it's brilliant when you can
drop that stuff and nobody knows what the hell you're
talking about.
Speaker 2 (59:39):
Right, yep, great, yep.
Speaker 1 (59:40):
So I love this. I'm going to pick this up
from my classroom.
Speaker 2 (59:46):
We're saying it the right way.
Speaker 7 (59:48):
You're right, so like it's usually like fon, like yeah, exactly, Yeah,
that's good stuff.
Speaker 4 (01:00:01):
Coach. Have you ever done karaoke?
Speaker 6 (01:00:06):
I have.
Speaker 7 (01:00:07):
I typically am the one that weasels out of it though,
and peer pressures somebody else to sing a song.
Speaker 4 (01:00:15):
You said you have that? What was it? Give me?
Give me your go to karaoke song?
Speaker 7 (01:00:18):
I mean, Whitney Houston is always safe, Like I want
to dance with somebody, like you really can't mess that up,
Like even if you're having a bad vocal day, Like
every everybody ends up singing with you, so you're never
actually doing it song.
Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
Hey Bridge, I got a question for you. You mentioned
Whitney Houston. What what kind of coordination did she have?
Speaker 6 (01:00:43):
Dance wise?
Speaker 1 (01:00:45):
Just what type of coordination did Whitney Houston have?
Speaker 6 (01:00:49):
And there it is?
Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
Nice job?
Speaker 4 (01:00:54):
Is this your second dead joke?
Speaker 2 (01:00:59):
That's because God, you gotten old? This is this last
thirty episodes.
Speaker 1 (01:01:03):
Jesus, that was the dad joke of the day in
my classroom yesterday.
Speaker 2 (01:01:08):
Please job much job.
Speaker 3 (01:01:11):
All right, coach, you're obviously an athlete, right you're still coaching.
Give me give me your most painful sports injury from
when you're playing days.
Speaker 4 (01:01:22):
Everybody's got a war story of sorts.
Speaker 7 (01:01:24):
Yeah, surgeries and back injuries aside. Like I would say
the back was the most painful just because it was lingering,
but the most vivid memory, which is kind of funny
and ironic. We're playing at Western Michigan, rainy, gloomy, just
shitty day. Go up for a header, mind you. I
(01:01:48):
was tied for seventh leading score at ball state as
a defender.
Speaker 6 (01:01:51):
Just please take note of that.
Speaker 2 (01:01:54):
But did not know that.
Speaker 7 (01:01:56):
Yep, go up for a header, goalkeeper comes out just
clean's clock. I'm down for a hot minute and then
end up playing the second half. I mean I'm bent
over at halftime, like back of the huddle, trying not
to vomit or pass out.
Speaker 1 (01:02:15):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (01:02:15):
I don't know really how I stayed on my two
feet that second half, but then I don't remember ship
after that, so I would probably say that's the uh.
Speaker 6 (01:02:22):
And I think I'm still paying for it today.
Speaker 1 (01:02:25):
Video.
Speaker 6 (01:02:27):
I'm sure I could dig up some some college film
it yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:02:32):
Right, yeah, speaking of speaking of film, have you seen
the film of the BYU girl who was just punching everyone.
It's the most famous like female girl college soccer. I
b YU girl beats up. I think it's Fresno State,
Like it's just the girls from Fresno State and she's
beating up all the BYU girls. It's amazing.
Speaker 1 (01:02:53):
I mean.
Speaker 2 (01:02:55):
Rushing. Yes, yeah, sorry, markin go ahead, You're own question
six I think or seven or whatever.
Speaker 4 (01:03:00):
Okay, give me.
Speaker 3 (01:03:02):
I'm one of those people that doesn't get embarrassed very easily.
If something embarrassing happens, usually like and either spin it
or laugh it off. But do you get embarrassing if so,
what's your most embarrassing moment, like sports related, either coaching
or playing.
Speaker 4 (01:03:18):
Oh, I can tell you what that was.
Speaker 6 (01:03:20):
Yeah, oh well, I definitely want to hear that.
Speaker 7 (01:03:23):
I I don't get embarrassed easily, but I would.
Speaker 6 (01:03:28):
I mean, it happens to every soccer player at some point.
Speaker 7 (01:03:31):
But like it's the you know, I'm coming over to
send a long ball, I've got a decent wind up
plant foot hits the ball.
Speaker 6 (01:03:40):
I with like just look like a.
Speaker 7 (01:03:41):
Total idiot, like and now I'm on my ass, And
unfortunately the attacker was basically right there, so they're now
on a breakaway. My other center back had to come
cover my ass. But uh yeah, the good old plant
foot hits it ever so slightly, so as you kick,
you just whip shit and your host.
Speaker 4 (01:04:00):
Know, yep, that's good stuff.
Speaker 3 (01:04:04):
I got my It isn't sports related, but one time
at rum Key during like a metro softball tournament, I
was probably twenty seven, a couple of things, you know,
a lot of people there, and I got completely pants
in front of everybody, and I was wearing like yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:04:20):
It was it was a cold.
Speaker 6 (01:04:24):
Yeah, yeah, yikes, yikes.
Speaker 3 (01:04:26):
By far, my most embarrassing moment yeah, I mean cool
as a cucumber. I just set my beer down real slow, pull.
Speaker 4 (01:04:36):
The draws back up. Gold panic, gold panic.
Speaker 2 (01:04:40):
Yeah, buddy, not good, not good?
Speaker 3 (01:04:43):
All right, this is another dumb question, but you have
a very freaking, like cool ass name, Bridget Wilder. Like,
come on, if somebody were to change their name and
say I want to change my name to something like
Bridget Wilder.
Speaker 4 (01:04:56):
Would be one of those names that somebody would want
to change their name to. If you had to change
your name, what would you change your name to?
Speaker 7 (01:05:03):
Honestly this, I mean, thank goodness my husband is around,
I'd probably go back to Bridget Reader, which is my
main name. It's way easier to sign, like in cursive
wild there's.
Speaker 6 (01:05:16):
R E D.
Speaker 4 (01:05:18):
Yeah, is a tough cursive.
Speaker 7 (01:05:22):
Right into an I to an L to a D.
Like there's too many this, I can't do it. But
it took away my fun fact, so, like, you know,
I was terrible, like, oh, introduce yourself, give a fun fact,
you know, blah blah blah.
Speaker 6 (01:05:36):
And I'm like, I'm not creative.
Speaker 7 (01:05:37):
But my last name prior was a palindrome, so I'm like,
that's what I would give them.
Speaker 4 (01:05:43):
R E D E r very cool, honestly, when it's
the same thing.
Speaker 2 (01:05:51):
I was a history teacher.
Speaker 6 (01:05:53):
Was the Lakota world still calls me reader?
Speaker 2 (01:05:56):
So I thought it was a parallelogram. Was her name
is a freaking forth signed.
Speaker 4 (01:06:05):
That's good stuff. That's good stuff. I've got a couple
more dumb questions, but we can keep going all night
with this. You've got some great answers, coach. Steakhouses. Are
you a fan?
Speaker 3 (01:06:19):
Some people just like I'd rather go to it, thank you.
Speaker 6 (01:06:25):
Steakhouse.
Speaker 4 (01:06:27):
I am not one hundred percent If I go to
a steakhouse, I.
Speaker 3 (01:06:31):
Get steak, but not like if we're going at the
dinner for a celebration, like okay, it's it's almost like
it's too easy go to Ruby's now, Like I'd rather
go to a nice, independent, like Italian restaurant, like you know,
send me to you know, Nicola's or Vavt or something
like that.
Speaker 4 (01:06:49):
But not a big fan of steakhouses. What do you
guys take on this?
Speaker 2 (01:06:54):
I love steakhouses.
Speaker 1 (01:06:55):
I love.
Speaker 2 (01:06:59):
I love up steak Are you kidding? Well, that's how
they get you. You do not want to fill up
on the roles. You do not.
Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
I'm not saying I don't like steakhouses, but I prefer that.
Speaker 1 (01:07:09):
Cliche. I mean, you're saying that Jaggs has the best
salmon in the city. Huh, that's what you're saying.
Speaker 7 (01:07:20):
I make a mean steak at home, so I'm kind
of like, why am I paying for this if I
can like make it?
Speaker 6 (01:07:24):
But I think is sometimes better at home.
Speaker 4 (01:07:27):
Dude, I'm one hundred in agreement with you. I feel
like I'm I can make a steak at home on
par with Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:07:33):
Yeah, I'll sink yeah if you I posted a little.
I don't post a lot on social media, but when
I do, it's usually food because I'm love that.
Speaker 4 (01:07:42):
I'm kind of fat, That's.
Speaker 1 (01:07:43):
What I like.
Speaker 3 (01:07:47):
But I posted I grilled a great steak last weekend.
Oh it was incredible, open fire, it was.
Speaker 4 (01:07:52):
It was awesome.
Speaker 7 (01:07:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (01:07:55):
Last question social media, m do you post or do
you post? Like? What do you put?
Speaker 3 (01:08:01):
Do you post inspirational quotes or family pictures or do
you not post at all? How you approach social media?
Speaker 7 (01:08:09):
My entire team would in Unison give you the answer,
and that's I hate it.
Speaker 6 (01:08:17):
It's useful for keeping up with people. I'm not a poster.
Speaker 7 (01:08:22):
Just like, Hey, if you want to see my life, like,
come talk to me and be involved in it. I'm definitely,
you know, a scroller occasionally, but I mean I don't
get in the wormholes.
Speaker 6 (01:08:31):
Of social media and stuff.
Speaker 7 (01:08:33):
So I always tell people like, hey, especially on the
soccer side of things, if you want highlights and such posted,
like somebody else can run the account, because like, I
just don't even.
Speaker 6 (01:08:42):
Think to do it.
Speaker 7 (01:08:44):
It's not And I think a large part of that, honestly,
was probably being overseas. I only worked on Wi Fi
and so I'm like, you know, i'd post occasionally here
and there, like some cool stuff I did, but I try.
I just got to kind of be in the moment
and experience things as they come and not have to
film everything.
Speaker 2 (01:09:05):
Do you feel like that helps or hurts recruiting or
anything else like that?
Speaker 7 (01:09:10):
It might, you know, hurt a little bit. But again
from the high school side of things, like we're either
going to get the kids or not. So I think
there's less less pressure from my side of things. I think, uh,
the collegiate side, it's imperative. So thank god I'm not Therebyn.
Speaker 4 (01:09:29):
Well, this is nine for ninety session. I feel like
we learned a lot about you. This has been freaking awesome. Yeah,
you're probably one of my favorite nine for nineties so far.
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (01:09:39):
So going back to your like overseas, talk about the cuisine,
how was that different? Oh boy, why we're talking about food, Like,
did you think because they don't really have steakhouses.
Speaker 4 (01:09:52):
I think probably in a lot.
Speaker 2 (01:09:53):
Of it's just cool. It's just recold. All they do
is eat coffee.
Speaker 6 (01:10:01):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 7 (01:10:04):
A lot of fish, a lot of fish. The Tide
presence in Sweden was large, So a lot of thaie food,
which I honestly was great. It was uh you know,
you're almost like your food trucks or like your pop
up tie shops, so really good thaie food.
Speaker 6 (01:10:22):
Uh, but a lot of fish and it was kind
of funny.
Speaker 7 (01:10:24):
So Swedish culture is all about their sauces, so not
a ton of flavoring like on their proteins or their food,
but like they'd have four different sauce options that were
like different flavor. And I'm not talking like barbecue sauce, right,
I'm talking like some kind of like crem fresh or
like different base. So like everything's fork and knife and
(01:10:48):
you take a little bit of your fish, your boiled potatoes,
your whatever else, you dip it in your sauce and
like that's how you take a bite. So like that
was I think that was the biggest difference, and like
just how things were prepared.
Speaker 2 (01:11:01):
Audioconnoments is getting really hungry thinking about that. God, that
sounds amazing. Oh well, coach, you were officially off the
