I'm the host, Jeff Needle, class of nineteen eighty four.
Always great to catch up with the head coach of
the Crusaders, Bert Bathyany coach, How are we doing this week?

Speaker 1 (00:49):
I'm doing good? Man, doing good. How are you guys doing?

Speaker 3 (00:52):
We're doing great. Everything's good, everything's good. You know, it
seems like the school year and the season kind of
just clipping along here, and uh, you know, oh my goodness,
we're halfway through October.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
It's unbelievable. It's going fast. But I know you're a
big weather guy. So you're probably excited about like the weather.

Speaker 3 (01:08):
Right now, and this is this is this is like utopia. Yeah,
I mean it's it's cool enough for fire pits. It's
you know, at full moon last night. I mean, it's
just great stuff. So it's uh, in tomorrow Saturday is
going to be just an incredible seventy one degrees. You know,
no crazy wind or leaves flying or anything. Now next week,

(01:30):
I don't know if you saw the forecast about the
snow that's supposed to hit next week in Muskegan.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Serious, no, I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
I can't do that to you. It's supposed to be
fifty nine good man. I mean that's like, that's like
perfect football. It was fifty nine and sunny.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Because when we looked the last time, it was looking
pretty good. But you know, I'm just excited. This game
is different than the last time we played ADS with
that old rainstorm and everything. So it's a different right,
definitely a much more enjoyable plain atmosphere than last year.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
Well, it seems like a lot of times when we
play ADS we always get some type of interesting weather,
but it is what it is. So everybody doing good
as far as good week of practice so far.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Yeah, absolutely, they're locked in right a row and guys
are healthy, so you know, we're hitting our stride at
the right time.

Speaker 3 (02:14):
As I like to say, i'd like to I hope
this is the first of two if we got to
play DS so but let's let's take care of the
first one. But we'll talk about that. So everybody, everybody
coming along, as far as injury wise, everybody just kind
of it just seems like we're in really good shape.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Yeah, knock on wood. You don't want to I'm not
too superstitious, but you never want to try to speak
things into existence. But the team's really healthy, they're taking
care of their bodies, and you know, I'm really happy
where we're at considering it's week eight or SCHEMI week nine,
So doing really well from that standpoint.

Speaker 3 (02:49):
Coach, I believe, and I don't have this for sure,
but I know we've all were obviously qualified for the playoffs.
I believe we are the number one team with playoff
appearances forty ever since they started. Of course, of course
back in the day when it was very limited where
they only had four teams and they only took one
from each region, so it kind of helped that we

(03:10):
got the head start on that. Yeah, but I don't
I mean, I don't know the way it is now,
it's gonna be hard for everybody catch us.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
I would say that's true, right because I think the
just the way everything happened after COVID with that extra round,
it's a lot easier to get in the playoffs now
than obviously it was way back when.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
And we'll talk about the playoffs on a future show
as that's that'll be coming up. So good to year.
Everything's going good. I'm sure it's I'm sure it's kind
of funding it out in practice and you know it's
not too hot, it's not it's not freezing cold. It's
just good to get out in about, isn't it. Yeah,
it's great.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
I mean, just see you don't like logistically where you
don't have to like adjust and do all that stuff,
you know, and change everything. I think that's the greatest
benefit of that is where you just get to go
outside and practice at the time you have scheduled and
you don't have to make any adjustments based on the
heat or the rain or anything like that, and guys
can just focus on playing.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
Football and it's even better that what the conditions they're
practicing in are the projected conditions that we're gonna there's
nothing worse. And they have like a great weather week
and all of a sudden the temperature falls or the
rainstorm hits or something crazy. So keep that consistency, so coaches,
might be our last Saturday game of the year, So wow,

(04:21):
I think if we look at it that way, But
it also makes it a short weekend, and you got
to turn around and then it is what it is.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
That's business as usual for our team and our guys.
They're used to the chaos of everything, and I think
it's been really good for the growth and the development
of our team, just handling adversity and just taking whatever
comes with us. And then our our resiliency has always
got to be greater than our resistance, and I think
our team's done a good job of that.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
We'll just take it as it comes, and it's a
good time for a break, and we'll come back and
we'll talk a little bit about last week's game and
a little trip to Cleveland. Is you're listening to the

and the Molar Broadcasting Network where you get all your
fix of molar football. And right now you're listening to
the Bert Bathy Andy Show, which features the head coach

(05:52):
of the Crusaders, Bert Bethyanny. I'm Jeff Schneiedel class of
nineteen eighty four and with Comy and Shepherd Realtors and
Comyan Shepherd is the spot of the Coaches Show and
coach uh had a nice little trip up to Cleveland
last week. Parma to be exact, and uh man, I
mean hate to keep harping about the weather, but man,
what a great weather day. Yeah, it was so nice

(06:15):
and sunny, and then right about game time, the sun
just fell down over the west skyline and the lights
took effect, and you know, it looked like coming out
of the box. Uh sayt I's got the ball and
had two real effective run plays for first downs, and
I'm like, uh, oh, what do we get? What we
got now? But things changed on that third play.

Speaker 1 (06:38):
Yep, Uh, it wasn't really the third play was that fast,
because they did have two big runs early on.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Yep, they were two first downs.

Speaker 1 (06:45):
They're right backs, really talented. Yeah, I mean he's he
was the focal point of that offense, so we knew
we had to stop him. And obviously the first two
plays he had some explosives which you know, got you
kind of a little bit taken aback by it. And
then our guys down force the takeaway and then we
went and scored really fast, and then after that we
settled in. We played our game.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
Coach thirty seven first half points. I think it kind
of shell shocked the Wildcats, to be quite honest. I mean,
really how they started. You know, I start thinking of
things like, oh, my goodness, they're gonna they're gonna run
and run and run and limited possessions. But man, that
all that all changed on a dime. And of course
you know number seven getting you know, four touchdown passes,
eleven of eighteen. You know, just a lot of really

(07:29):
good things happening, Guys making great plays, good seeing Dante
were back in the mix as well.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Yeah it is, I mean, and then Tyler Johnson was
very effective run the football. And then Deacon Simmons Grandow coach,
so our backs did a great job rushing the football
in that game. Are aligned, did a good job getting
a hat on the hat and getting some easy running
lanes for those guys to be effective. Just an overall
efficient night offensively. And then defense, you know, back to
business as usual. They're playing aggressive force and takeaways.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
Second shutout of the season, I mean, that's awesome.

Speaker 1 (08:01):
And someone said this, I don't know if it's true
or not. That might have been the first time we
might have shut out, saying nations. I don't know if
that's true or not. Someone said that, which would be
a huge testament.

Speaker 3 (08:11):
To just I don't know if we've Cleveland program.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
Is such a rich tradition and a rich history, and
I've coached a lot of players from that school when
I was at Dennison, and so nothing but respect for them.
But I'm really proud with how we how we played
complimentary football in all three phases of the game. We
had seven or nine points off special Forces when you
think of the safety on the pump block and then

(08:37):
the ensuing kickoff we take it back to the house.
Great job by Chris Bradley showing how explosive he really is,
and that young man is just so stinking talented. It
was good to highlight him from that standpoint. So really
excited to see him take off and showcase his abilities.
But overall a really effective night, I think in all

(08:58):
three phases. So I was really pleased with the out
come of the game.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
Coach. Offensively, it just seemed like we just checked right
in and kept going. Do you do you do the
big long script the plays in the beginning, or you
just kind of go with what you feel or do
you just know? Yes, does Matt have the opportunity to say, Hey,
I see something I'm gonna you know, just have fun
with it.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
Yes to all that stuff, right like, so we do
have a fifteen place script of what we want to
see and we copy that. Like like any offensive coach,
like they try to have this fifteen place script where
they they're trying to identify certain things and see how
they're going to come out. Like usually in the first
two drives, that's really like a meet and greet between
the offense and the defense, right, Like you're going to

(09:38):
see how they're adjusting. They're gonna see what formations you're
going to give them, and then after that meet and greet,
you really get into the meat and potatoes of what
you're doing. And later on the second half, it's really
you know, what's been working for him in the first half,
that's what they're gonna do, or what hasn't been working,
they're going to go back to what's been working throughout
the season, right, So that's kind of like the song

(09:59):
and dance you play throughout that. But there's been plenty
of times where we had a fifteen play script and
we stuck to the script verbatim all the way down.
And then there's other times where we got off it
right away. And sometimes you get explosive plays, you get
off it pretty quick, and then other times, if it's
not working, you get off it pretty quick. But I
try to give Matt a lot of freedom of what

(10:19):
to do throughout that script as well, where when we meet,
we'll go through the plays, see what he likes, and
I'll tell him what I'm thinking, He'll tell me what
he's thinking, what he likes, and then we'll go from there.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Coach, it just really seems like, you know, offensively, we're
just on the same frequency at a high level. And
none better than the play that Folgelo was out on
the right side and the guy was giving him so
much space and he started taking off and just stopped
on a dime and there's the ball and I mean
literally one mistackle and a race to the end zone.

(10:52):
I just thought that was a thing of beauty is
that you don't have to get too deep with it.
Is that a design players, that's something where they see
and they kind of just on the same wavelength. They
just know what they're gonna do.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
Yeah, and the player talking they went to a cover
two after Matt beat them, you know earlier. So that
was just a whole shot play that we wrapped time
and time and again. So really good job by the Matts.
And that was the same situation that Javon was in
against Elder on the opening drive, right, it was the
exact same thing. Really good job by their execution. But

(11:25):
let me give a lot of credit to our wide receivers.
They are just so talented and how they can identify
coverage and know where to settle and where to sit
and how to get open and Matt's able to deliver
them the ball.

Speaker 3 (11:34):
And then so the defense got matted on that.

Speaker 1 (11:37):
And that's how you want to describe it.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Well speak speaking of nicknames, no one to uh with
the initials of BC referred to what Matt as the
Polish pistol.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
I don't know if Matt likes that one too much.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
And that's why I wanted to ask that. I don't
want to use that if that's If that's not like,
then we'll figure something else out. Let's just Matt, everybody,
you're gonna throw them down the mat. I'll let that
come up for you, guys. I'm not good at the
I'm not going to get in any trouble with your players
or parents or anything like that. But that's that's why
I asked, if so, we'll dance lightly around that subject.

(12:10):
So again, second shot out of the season for the
defense and third game in a row, giving up less
than one hundred and fifty yards.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
You know, again, that's impressive. Now, we just got to
keep it one game at a time. But I'm really,
like I said, I think we kind of hit our
stride at the right time, like coming out of gCO
play and going into the g CL North play of Ignatius.
And but I think we're playing the way we expect
to play on defense right, Like we're really aggressive and

(12:41):
we're gonna make you We're gonna defend every single blade
of grass throughout the fifty three to third yards wide
and then one hundred and twenty long. So I'm really
happy with our front seven and their ability to be
physical and stopping the run. I'm really proud of our
secondary of challenging every route and making the quarterback work
for every single completion that he gets. So really proud

(13:02):
of how we're playing.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
I just think you gave a slogan to the student
run business that our defense is going to defend every
blade of grass.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
That's our philosophy. I like that plade of grass we
give up. We try to give up nothing, and credit
that the coach sharp and his mindset and and how
we approach every single game, and obviously we game plan
for every single team, but just like anything, it all
comes back to us and what we do, and we're
going to do our thing, and we're going to live
and die by our philosophy and we're going to challenge

(13:32):
you every single way possible.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Coach, and I know you said early on in our
shows that we're just going to keep evolving, and uh,
I just I so many good things we're seeing and
we still just got a long way to go. You know,
we haven't we haven't reached the mountaintop, so there's nothing
to really celebrate. We keep going.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
It's a process and it's a journey, right like you said,
like this is we just finish up week eight, it's
going in the week nine. There's still a lot of
season left, so there's still a lot of growth development
that can be had over the course of the season,
right Like, So we're still evolving, We're still learning about
what team we we are, what team we can be,
and you know what team we were in the past
that we want to keep doing or fix. And so

(14:13):
that's always been the mindset, is having that KUIs in mentality.
We're always trying to improve and get better. And I
got a text from an alum earlier today. It said
that hayes never in the barn, and he's one hundred
percent right. Like they try to say that heyes in
the barn after yesterday because that's that's when the physical
preparation is done. But the mental preparation is still going on,

(14:34):
and and that doesn't even stop until kickoff, right, Like
you're still on the field and you know you're you're
judging the win, you're judging the weather, you're judging your
players demeanor, you're judging the other team's demeanor and trying
to see like what all is going on and how
you're gonna approach that game. And you have a plan
going into it, but that can drastically change or it

(14:55):
can stay the same based on a number of factors.
So the hay is never in the It never is.
Now Physically it might you have to relax a little bit,
Like we can't go and do inside run the day
before a game, right right, So like now it's the
metal preparation, but you're you never stop preparing, you never
stop evolving, and you never stop trying to find a

(15:16):
way to get an edge in some way.

Speaker 3 (15:17):
Shape and form well, coach, whatever we're doing, let's let's
let's keep bottling it up for the for tomorrow and
the upcoming week. So it's, uh, it's good stuff. And
you know what, it's a fun team to watch. It
is it is I mean, you know what, it's you know,
high school football really and and and we're blessed in
our area with a lot of great teams and things
and games, but it's it's the best entertainment value around

(15:39):
as far as well.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
It's a lot of fun. Like you and they've been
putting in the work too, right, Like this has been
going on since early January. I think like January fourth
is our first workout. We had eighty five kids at
the workout. So this has like been a what you
see on Friday nights is the culmulation of all that
hard work going into a lot of people don't get

(16:00):
to see and give our old guys a lot of
credit because they buy into what we ask them to
do and then you see, you know, the fruits of
their labor. So I just can't say enough good things
about our guys and their commitment to our team and
the parents' commitment to getting them to places on time,
and you know, it takes a village, and you know,

(16:21):
I think we have the best village that you can
have a moler so it really is special.

Speaker 3 (16:25):
Well, when the lights come on, that's just time to
showcase all the work that you've done before that, whether
it's months ahead or that week. You know, if you
wait to start doing getting getting serious, when the lights
come on, you're in trouble. All right, Well we weren't
in trouble this past week, but we'll talk about what's
on the horizon. As you're listening to the Burt Bathiani Show,
which features the head coach of the Molar Football Crusaders,

(16:49):
sponsored by Komy and Shepherd Realtors and heard here on
w MOE and the Molar Broadcasting Network, it's time for
another great season on Molar football, and it's always a
good time to buy and sell real estate. Contact me
Jeff Schneedl, the voice of the Crusaders but also Molar
Class of nineteen eighty four. I can be reached at

(17:11):
five one, three, four, eight, four zero six sixty six.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Go big Mo.

Speaker 3 (17:33):
Welcome back to w MOOE and the Molar Broadcasting Network,
where you get everything about Molar football. Here and right
now it is the Bert Bathyani Show, which features the
head coach of the Crusaders, Bert Bathyani. I'm Jeff Schneidel,
class of nineteen eighty four and the show is sponsored
by Comy and Shepherd Realtors and coach going back. We

(17:54):
have a great rivalry and history with Saint Ed's and
they are the next one on the list, and it's
a a good game with these guys.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
It really is. I mean, you look back at the
last three years. We won it overtime up there. They
came down here and they won on a goal line stand,
and then we go up there and we're getting our
butts kicked in the first half, and then we have that,
you know, this miraculous comeback and we end up losing
on a Hail Mary. They try to tie the game up.
But it's been an exciting game, you know, the last

(18:24):
three years, and then they've gone on to win the championship,
right so that's been the measuring stick as of late.
So we're excited to play this game. And this is
gonna be as a well coached team as you're gonna play,
especially at the high school level. I mean, Coach Lombardo
does a phenomenal job with that program, and Pete Pappas
does a great job on their defensive side. So they'll
be very well coached, without question. And they got tremendous players,

(18:46):
so we're really excited for this opportunity.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
Well, and they are three time defending state champion. They
actually lead the series with US fifteen to ten. They've
had a nice little run over the years. Actually they've
won twelve out of thirteen. Butt goes all the way
back to nineteen seventy five and the first state championship,
which you know, so much excitement. I was actually there,
and you know, we're winning fourteen to twelve. We're pinned

(19:11):
back in our territory and John Williams unleash is an
incredible punt that just pushed them so far back that
there wasn't enough time for them to recover. And there's
the first of many state championships. So just an incredible
history there. You know, who knew that that win was
the beginning of something as huge as what Molar football

(19:33):
is right now? Yeah, but very cool.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
Yeah, but yeah, a long standing tradition between us playing
this this great football team and like you said, guess
all the way back to the nineteen seventies and even
before then. But yeah, but none of like and I
want this has come off wrong, but none of that
matters for this game, right Like, none of the past matters,
right Like, the last three years don't matter, last year
doesn't matter. There the characters have changed. I like, they're

(19:57):
a completely different team. We're a completely different team, right
Like coaches go off and study in the offseason and
you change and you tweak, and so every single year,
every single game is different. So we're focused on this
game right here, right now. The past does not matter. Oh,
we're focused on is Saturday.

Speaker 3 (20:14):
Well, the only two things I'll say in the past.
In two thousand and eight, EDS came down and we
played at Knippert and we were ahead in the game
and Eds came down and they kicked like a forty
yard fuel goal with like ten seconds left, and it's like, man,
you have this game that you're gonna win. Yeah, And

(20:35):
here they kick this fuel goal. And interestingly enough, their
kicker had been kicking into the end zone all day
after their scores and they kicked the ball off and
it's I guess you'd say to the left side and
Tony Harris gets it and he starts running sideways and
he sees a crease down the sideline and just outran everybody,

(20:56):
clock runs out. I mean, it was one of the
most incredible games I've scene. Uh and uh, you know again,
it's it's like, you know, you're playing ads and we
got we got all this history and stuff going on,
and and that's the way the game ends. One of
those games where you think you have it won, and
now you've lost, and now you you just take a victory.
So it's not over till it's over.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
It's not it's over. That's what happens in these in
these In games like this, it doesn't matter if you're
playing in the GCL or you're playing the teams from Cleveland,
it usually comes down to the wire and you never
know what's gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
And they're they're GCL teams, they're well coached, they're talented.
And then you mentioned the other game in twenty twenty one.
You know that we went up there and they were
ranked number one in the state, and uh, we we
go to overtime, we score, and what I thought was
really cool and a cool way to end at Mitch
McNulty basically jumped a wheel route and intercepted the pass.

(21:52):
And in talking with him, he said that he watched
that play over and over that week and just knew
at some point that was coming. And I guess what
I'm getting at is are your guys looking at tape
like with their tendencies and plays and I mean, just
to be that ready. I just thought that was so cool.
He kind of was just laying back in the woods.

(22:13):
He saw it coming and he jumped it and came over.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
Yeah. They That's the great thing about huddle nowadays is
the kids can now watch film, you know, at all times. Right,
So give a lot of credit to our guys who
when we come in and we have meetings and talk
to our guys and we're showing a certain look and
one of the guys like, oh, okay, I remember this
because they're gonna do this and I'm expecting this, and
then you're like you take a step back, like, hey,

(22:37):
good job, right they and that comes in their own
individual film study because at the high school level, like
you don't get the meeting time like you do in college,
and obviously not the NFL, right, So a lot of
it has to be done on your own from that standpoint,
but you try to provide them with as much intel
as possible so that they're prepared for their situations. And
you know, it doesn't matter if it's on defense and

(22:58):
you're showing their top blosive plays and you know where
they're gonna ligne their best player, or on offense and
showing their top blitzer is right, like, this is what
you're going to do. Wee get a week out and
get them ready and prepared for the team's best stuff. Right,
But there's always a new wrinkle every single week that
you're not really ready for and then you have to
adapt into justin get ready to go. But no, but yeah,

(23:21):
are our players definitely are watching film the extent and
they feel prepared when coach.

Speaker 3 (23:26):
Gone are the days of trying to work a film
projector and a light bulb burning out and waiting for
the film and loading it up and doing all that.

Speaker 1 (23:35):
Two coaches drive into a neutral site the trade film
and then you know it's almost like a CIA deal
or they want to make sure both tapes work and.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
Right, so good, we got a pretty good now and
it is pretty cool. So with that, so Ed's comes
in they beat h Clarkson Football North out of Canada,
which what I understand is they and not only that,
they are a big physical ty.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
Yes, really good football team.

Speaker 3 (24:01):
So coach, I guess you know going in here with ads.
Yes they have three losses, but man, they're just like
us and ignacious and you know, we gotta play this
wicked schedule and they've lost some tough games. But I
know the one thing we're probably gonna be counting on.
It's gonna be a big physical game.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
Yeah, without question, it's gonna be. It's gonna be a battle,
it's gonna be a ward, it's gonna come down to
the fourth quarter. And they're just like us. We're there there.
They have a hard time scheduling game, so they schedule
the best teams that they possibly can. I mean, MASSI
them won the state championship last year. Glenville's got a
great football team. This year, Boyle County is the best
team in Kentucky and they've they're on their way to
win their fifth state street.

Speaker 3 (24:39):
There's a reason why they weren't too afraid to go
travel to Eds.

Speaker 1 (24:43):
They were glad to go take that opportunity. So they're
not playing cupcakes by any stretch of the imagination, and
we pride ourselves on that as well. So it'll be
a great football game no matter what coach.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
We got Saint Edward, the Bombers have of Saint Ignacious
and the Bengals play the Browns in Cleveland.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
Now.

Speaker 3 (25:04):
The only bad thing is our schedule didn't jibe where
we play Saturday and they put the Bengals. But but
that's okay. But uh, you know, can we go for
a three game sweep here? What do you think of that?
Cincinnati versus Cleveland.

Speaker 1 (25:17):
I'm just focused on our game right now.

Speaker 3 (25:18):
All right, Well, the only bad thing is our Reds
can't get in the playoffs. We go love to play
the I always say Indians the Guardians, but uh, that's
just non existent this year. But what a beautiful time
for football, and uh uh you know, we're just these
are the games that that that the school, the alumni,
the friends, the whole Moller nation just enjoy. And it's

(25:40):
it's gonna be let's not forget. It's it's also Senior night, yep.
So we get to honor the kids and a ton.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
Of seniors who've sacrificed for four years and give a
lot credit to this senior class. I mean, they've won
the gCO championship three years in a row. That's something
that definitely be proud of. But you know, like we
said after the old game, that's not the ultimate goal, right,
So moving forward, we want to celebrate our accomplishments on
the way, but we don't get hung up on them.
So we glimpse at the future learned for the past.

(26:07):
Be our feet are, our feet are right here the.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
Day before, and even considering some of the circumstances they
came in in the school four years ago. With that,
but uh, you know, the players and let's not forget
about the parents and the families that uh that do
an awful lot to h to make just success so
much so, coach, uh, let's go, let's go take care
of the Eagles. Let's take start turning this rivalry back.

(26:29):
So it seems like it goes and runs anyway. So
let's start one here, amen, and maybe it's the first
of two. I'll say that you don't have to you
stay focused on this week, but that's broadcast chatter right there.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
You haven't even got the first one. You're already looking
at the second one.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
Well, that's that's that's what we do. Yeah, we're not
you know, it's no jinks, so we don't jinks or
anything like that. Let's just come out of the gate
and do our game, and let's have some fun with it.
And it's Senior Day. Let's go get it done.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
