00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:51,800
Welcome back to the boundary
Corner podcast.
2
00:00:51,900 --> 00:00:55,200
My name is Curtis Wilson.
I'm right Sigler.
3
00:00:55,200 --> 00:01:00,700
How's it going, buddy, buddy?
One of these click Keys clink.
4
00:01:00,700 --> 00:01:04,800
He's okay.
Son, Crush, southern peach here
5
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,400
on this day and what about you
tonight?
6
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,900
Little Hardy with single.
Oh, and look at us supporting
7
00:01:10,900 --> 00:01:17,400
the r-va breweries.
We go from, you got a vacation
8
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,500
this weekend, buddy.
How was the lake?
9
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:25,300
Yeah, I had headed down to bugs,
I'll incur Lake Area out of the
10
00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:27,300
cabin with some, with some
neighbors.
11
00:01:27,900 --> 00:01:32,100
Little fishing.
It a little little, this little
12
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:35,400
that caught a few caught a few
very nice.
13
00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:38,600
I caught the most, I didn't kill
catch the biggest but I kept
14
00:01:40,700 --> 00:01:42,700
going for quantity, not quality.
Quality here.
15
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:47,000
Yes, when it comes to fish.
Yes, quantity over quality.
16
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,900
You can catch the nice prize
best, but that feeds one person
17
00:01:50,900 --> 00:01:53,200
you catch 10.
You're feeding the entire
18
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,700
family.
There we go.
19
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,100
There we go.
Thank you buddy.
20
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:05,000
Well, we were going to try to go
down and see some family on
21
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Friday but on Wednesday night,
my wonderful wife gets this
22
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,400
email from her school.
You must have your rooms cleaned
23
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,800
out by next Monday.
Huh.
24
00:02:15,900 --> 00:02:19,600
So it's kind of like, she's
like, when can you get up?
25
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,600
I'm like, well, I'm off Friday.
So let's just go on.
26
00:02:22,700 --> 00:02:25,400
Tell the folks, hey, can't come
down.
27
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,400
Sorry, we got to get this done.
Clearly because she does not
28
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,600
want, all her stuff going into a
storage trailer, so that was
29
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,400
pretty much all day.
Friday, wife's family came over
30
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,400
shared a grilled, some burgers,
some Wuhan hot dogs.
31
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,800
Bloody that like massive hot
dogs.
32
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:53,300
Had some drinks, just chilled.
And from our house watch
33
00:02:53,300 --> 00:02:55,900
fireworks on two streets over
from us and over in another
34
00:02:55,900 --> 00:02:57,700
neighborhood over.
So don't even have to leave the
35
00:02:57,700 --> 00:03:02,700
crib as a good.
Nice somewhat relaxing weekend.
36
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,600
Yeah, we were to catch some
fireworks.
37
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,100
They were shooting them off a
couple of boats.
38
00:03:06,700 --> 00:03:15,100
All right.
Your cabin watching fireworks.
39
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,900
That's that's good, man.
I mean it's always nice to see
40
00:03:18,900 --> 00:03:20,300
it.
It's the cool part is where
41
00:03:20,300 --> 00:03:23,700
Jack's bedroom is at the house.
He literally has this purpose.
42
00:03:23,700 --> 00:03:27,000
He's literally like, they are,
he could see the ones in the
43
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,700
neighborhood here.
He could see the ones in the
44
00:03:28,700 --> 00:03:30,800
other neighborhoods, so he was
like back and forth between the
45
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:35,700
Windows, like he was pumped on
on a Saturday late, Saturday
46
00:03:35,700 --> 00:03:37,200
night.
So, yeah.
47
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,100
Well folks, I hope your fourth
was great, too.
48
00:03:42,300 --> 00:03:47,300
Hope you had Had plenty of food
adult beverages and a good time,
49
00:03:47,300 --> 00:03:51,600
whatever you did.
But today, we're going to be
50
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:58,000
taking an in-depth look At
protecting Lane Stadium, we're
51
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,700
going to be looking at the four
themes that visit Lane this
52
00:04:01,700 --> 00:04:06,700
season.
So before we jump into all that
53
00:04:06,700 --> 00:04:10,600
though, there has been a lot of
news since the last time we were
54
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:17,100
on here and the biggest was this
weekend while my partner in
55
00:04:17,100 --> 00:04:21,000
crime, here had no cell service
is down at the lake.
56
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:33,100
We got some Yes sir DJ Harvey,
the 4 Star Quarterback out of
57
00:04:33,108 --> 00:04:41,100
Sierra, Canyon, High School in
California commits and came
58
00:04:41,100 --> 00:04:44,700
sound of out of nowhere.
Just all of a sudden people were
59
00:04:44,700 --> 00:04:48,700
like, he pulled it up and it was
like, I'm an ounce on the 4th
60
00:04:48,700 --> 00:04:53,300
and it's like what we'll wait a
second favorite and like, To
61
00:04:53,308 --> 00:04:56,700
come to Tech, but he initially,
if you remember, Brian, he's
62
00:04:56,700 --> 00:05:00,600
going to announce in September,
like we just did Penn State.
63
00:05:00,900 --> 00:05:05,200
We all feel good about that but
then this happens and now let me
64
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:10,000
ask you because you kind of came
into it a little late when you
65
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,800
saw it.
What was your first reaction?
66
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,900
So, I went down to the lake.
I think I left.
67
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:23,000
It was like I was also went to
my parents on Thursday and then
68
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,400
stay.
There, Friday, night and early
69
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,400
Saturday morning.
We headed to the lake.
70
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,900
So I was without cell phone
service, being able to text call
71
00:05:31,900 --> 00:05:38,700
anything for 36 hours.
And the only reason I knew about
72
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:44,300
it is because I made a run to
McDonald's to get some some
73
00:05:44,300 --> 00:05:48,700
Sundays for everybody and all of
a sudden, all the I get this
74
00:05:48,700 --> 00:05:53,100
like, barrage of text messages
saying, the Curtis was like, we,
75
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,200
Got a big one.
Oh, who is it?
76
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,900
It's always hard building.
Okay, okay, yeah that's good.
77
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,900
It would have been nice to be
unexpected but it's nice getting
78
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,800
getting that commitment now
versus waiting until September
79
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,000
because you never know what can
happen between now and then
80
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,200
absolutely you really don't but
to have him essentially in the
81
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,800
boat is a great thing.
And I mean, you take a look at
82
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:24,000
an overall.
I mean, I mean by 24/7 for Star
83
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,300
top 250 player, essentially he's
246.
84
00:06:28,300 --> 00:06:34,100
So he's in the top 24/7.
The number 18 cornerback top 25
85
00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:39,500
in California, plethora of
offers Brian Auburn LSU,
86
00:06:39,500 --> 00:06:43,300
Nebraska Notre, Dame Oregon,
Texas USC.
87
00:06:43,700 --> 00:06:46,800
So, essentially he is a
nationwide recruit.
88
00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:49,600
I know you've looked at a little
tape on.
89
00:06:49,900 --> 00:06:53,100
What do you, what do you mean?
Is he that boundary?
90
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,500
Three corners if you had that
skill set.
91
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,100
Yeah he's definitely got that
skill set in and what I like
92
00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:00,700
about about me and I know we've
been hammering this home but
93
00:07:00,900 --> 00:07:04,100
Universe until I think this is a
guy that might end up, you know,
94
00:07:04,100 --> 00:07:07,300
D Hall style may be playing
playing both ways and we're
95
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:11,000
sense because he's got a lot of
offensive Talent as well, but
96
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,900
he's going to be a guy that can
lock you up on defense at the
97
00:07:13,900 --> 00:07:15,400
corner spot.
So I like him.
98
00:07:15,700 --> 00:07:18,600
Definitely playing.
They're playing outside and I
99
00:07:18,608 --> 00:07:22,700
think he's going to be a guy
that probably slides into maybe
100
00:07:22,700 --> 00:07:25,300
not.
Right away into Farley's role
101
00:07:25,300 --> 00:07:30,200
when he leaves, but probably
slipping into Waller spot first
102
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,700
and then maybe maybe sliding
over after the fact.
103
00:07:32,700 --> 00:07:35,700
So I'm really really high on DJ
Harvey.
104
00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:39,000
I'm really pumped that he's in
the boat, the same here, man.
105
00:07:39,500 --> 00:07:43,700
You know, Not only was it, you
know, big four-star to get but
106
00:07:43,700 --> 00:07:46,800
it's one of those things with
the midnight Menace that we did,
107
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,900
right before, all the covid
stuff, broke it pays off.
108
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,600
Also, some people questioning
should we recruit All over the
109
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,400
country again, this is one of
those things, the other guys who
110
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,300
committed and decommitted that
still proves that we can get
111
00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:04,600
guys to commit from, not our
normal recruiting footprint and
112
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:11,300
you have to take those chances.
Now Braun great.
113
00:08:11,300 --> 00:08:16,100
We've got Harvey but some other
news popped up just a few days
114
00:08:16,100 --> 00:08:21,100
ago.
Not one but two additional
115
00:08:21,100 --> 00:08:27,400
recruiting positions have been
Posted which me and you probably
116
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,000
feel the same way.
If they've been posted, probably
117
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,299
already got the higher it's just
one of those.
118
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,299
Yeah, we got to put it on the
website just so, you know, you
119
00:08:36,299 --> 00:08:41,000
jump through the state of
Virginia that are necessary.
120
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:43,799
I'm sure they already have this
lined up.
121
00:08:44,500 --> 00:08:48,200
I'm sure they probably had
several guys that they were
122
00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:51,300
looking at.
Ya been whittled down from there
123
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,200
before you know.
I don't think that's necessarily
124
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,400
something that they were going
to throw an outside hire out
125
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,400
there.
I think they probably already
126
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,300
had some guys that either had
this position in other schools
127
00:09:02,300 --> 00:09:06,000
or had been doing some other
type of work for the Virginia
128
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,400
Tech and now they're moving into
this more focused role on staff.
129
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,500
So I think that's going to be
big big for recruiting going
130
00:09:13,500 --> 00:09:14,900
forward.
Obviously.
131
00:09:14,900 --> 00:09:20,500
I think we still need to do more
in the area but getting this
132
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:22,900
especially considering
everything going on with covid
133
00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:26,600
and Budgets and all that stuff.
The fact that we're all still
134
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,200
move on, this is pretty big that
does speak.
135
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:34,100
Some some to are working within
our budget.
136
00:09:34,300 --> 00:09:37,800
Yeah, you definitely definitely
says that we're doing a lot with
137
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,200
a little from that perspective.
So I like that and I like the
138
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,100
way we're positioning ourselves
to get better in this area
139
00:09:44,100 --> 00:09:47,300
because we definitely of all the
areas we have recruiting is
140
00:09:47,300 --> 00:09:51,400
definitely the one we need to
get better in 100% And if you
141
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,100
take a look at the position
title, Eels, let's kind of talk
142
00:09:55,100 --> 00:09:59,000
through them for a second, the
first because we already have
143
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,700
this position on staff or a
essentially a higher tiers and
144
00:10:03,700 --> 00:10:06,100
assistant director of player
Personnel football.
145
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,000
What do you foresee that being?
Because clearly, you've got
146
00:10:10,100 --> 00:10:13,100
piercing, Proto is one of the
directors.
147
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,900
Is this, just another helping
hand for him or is this?
148
00:10:17,900 --> 00:10:19,200
You can he's going to be a
little bit more.
149
00:10:20,300 --> 00:10:22,500
Probably is going to be more of
a helping hand.
150
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:28,200
I think initially He just to
manage the workload and to kind
151
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:32,300
of be more the bug in the ear of
the recruits and talking things
152
00:10:32,300 --> 00:10:38,200
through and looking at some of
the film that is just there's
153
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,800
just a lot out there and I think
you know when you're looking for
154
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,500
system fits and I think that
that's where I recruiting is
155
00:10:45,500 --> 00:10:47,600
started.
Moving towards is you guys that
156
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,800
fit what we're trying to do, not
just the biggest names of the
157
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,000
board things like this are
going.
158
00:10:53,100 --> 00:10:55,300
Biki.
So I'm looking forward to seeing
159
00:10:55,300 --> 00:10:58,400
what they can do with these.
All right, now, the other one
160
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,400
more interesting, part of the
assistant, director of on-campus
161
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:06,800
recruiting football to me here,
that that sounds like when
162
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,500
they're those big weekends.
We are now going to have someone
163
00:11:09,500 --> 00:11:10,900
who's going to be in charge of
that.
164
00:11:10,900 --> 00:11:14,400
It is that what you hear?
That as that's exactly what I
165
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:18,200
hear that as that this is no
longer is yet.
166
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:23,000
See you go running the
recruiting blueprint.
167
00:11:23,300 --> 00:11:28,600
With running all of these
weekend festivities or Junior
168
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,600
days or any of that stuff, this
is going to be someone that is
169
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,000
dedicated to setting those up.
Making sure that everyone is
170
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,400
where they need to be that each
recruit gets time with the
171
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,500
specific coaches, that they're
looking to get all that needs to
172
00:11:44,508 --> 00:11:47,100
be set up and running.
It doesn't need to be done by
173
00:11:47,500 --> 00:11:50,400
our director of recruiting.
It needs to be done by someone
174
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,100
in this role.
And I think that's going to be
175
00:11:52,100 --> 00:11:55,200
good to kind of offer.
Load some of the workload and
176
00:11:55,200 --> 00:12:00,300
have a more focused position for
that type of activity.
177
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,200
Yeah, that's also the one you
feel like it's so important
178
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,200
because when you're when you
have these guys in you want to
179
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,600
be hitting what they want to do,
they want to see their major,
180
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,700
they want to see their coach.
But also I think that's the one
181
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:15,800
that could potentially could be
a former player.
182
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,600
And I mean, who knows, who it
could be.
183
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,100
And the reason I say that
because it's the on-campus
184
00:12:22,100 --> 00:12:26,800
recruiting visit And if you talk
about someone who's been there,
185
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,800
whether they were there 10 years
ago or just in the last few
186
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,300
years, it kind of makes it easy
to.
187
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:37,300
Oh this kid is, you know, he is,
he's looking to major in this.
188
00:12:37,300 --> 00:12:41,800
So the buildings here, offices
are here will probably live
189
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,800
here.
Let me set how this up.
190
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,300
Yeah, coordination, perfect.
Someone who knows the campus
191
00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:48,800
now?
Is it going to be a big name
192
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,800
player?
Maybe, maybe not.
193
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:56,600
I think I'll says, Fans, hoping
this 11 like name recognizable.
194
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,400
I'll throw his name out there
because he is now living in
195
00:12:59,408 --> 00:13:02,800
Blacksburg Sergio render.
Yeah.
196
00:13:03,100 --> 00:13:06,000
Sergio render a you can't miss
him.
197
00:13:06,100 --> 00:13:12,700
He's 66 he is a message.
Being he loves the school, he
198
00:13:12,700 --> 00:13:16,500
has not only so much knowledge
of the on-campus stuff but
199
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:19,100
Sergio a big-time Outdoorsman
they've come.
200
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,000
When the area in general would I
be shocked?
201
00:13:23,100 --> 00:13:27,000
Look if in a couple weeks, we
would like to announce their
202
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:33,500
nope, not other position, maybe
it's another hokey or maybe it's
203
00:13:33,500 --> 00:13:38,200
someone trying to get their foot
in the door of coaching and
204
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,100
begin.
This is a great starting role.
205
00:13:40,300 --> 00:13:44,800
It's great for the program.
Yeah, I mean and with the other
206
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,900
role of the, if it's not someone
like Sergio, I mean do you think
207
00:13:47,900 --> 00:13:53,700
it can be someone more football
adjacent but you know, I hope
208
00:13:53,700 --> 00:13:56,400
you crab versus someone that was
directly involved with the
209
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,000
football program.
Very potentially.
210
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,200
I think that could be the case
as well.
211
00:14:02,500 --> 00:14:05,300
It definitely could be someone
again who knows campus knows the
212
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:08,000
local culture and we'll try to
get the students around on
213
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,000
campus while they're there
visiting to make mom and dad
214
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,500
feel assured.
Hard to say, Hey you live here,
215
00:14:15,500 --> 00:14:18,200
your classes will be here.
Here's the football facilities
216
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,800
and almost one of those things.
Hey it's easy to set up a
217
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,200
meeting with the coach is if
you're on the staff, hey coach
218
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,700
cabinets.
We've got the tight end coming
219
00:14:26,700 --> 00:14:30,200
out of South Carolina.
What time do you want to punch
220
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:31,800
them in?
I'll bring them, you know, so he
221
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,200
knows what time they come to
your office is after we get them
222
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,100
at or something.
So yeah, it could be just a
223
00:14:36,100 --> 00:14:39,800
regular student but there's a
part of me that wants to be a
224
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,700
player because then you have
that further.
225
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,900
In while Kids on Campus, like I
played here, I ran through that
226
00:14:46,900 --> 00:14:49,500
tunnel.
I gave my Blood Sweat, and Tears
227
00:14:49,500 --> 00:14:53,900
on that, field displaced.
When it's electric, you will get
228
00:14:53,900 --> 00:14:55,600
goosebumps.
You will shake.
229
00:14:55,800 --> 00:15:00,700
So I'm hoping it's a player but,
you know, either way we should
230
00:15:00,700 --> 00:15:02,300
be happy.
We're getting more recruiting,
231
00:15:02,300 --> 00:15:05,600
Physicians that we are
definitely lacking behind on
232
00:15:05,900 --> 00:15:08,300
added for sure, for sure.
It's definitely a good good
233
00:15:08,300 --> 00:15:11,200
moving forward on that because,
you know, we can definitely see
234
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,000
improve it even though I think
We're gonna be alright, this
235
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,200
cycle after a rough last cycle
in a rough.
236
00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:19,800
April and May I think we're
going to turn things around
237
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,100
here.
We're starting to look better.
238
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,900
And we're starting to get more
in-state guys, which I think is
239
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,900
increasing some of the
perception D.
240
00:15:30,900 --> 00:15:33,200
Crassus a decrease in some of
the perception issues we've been
241
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,500
having from that perspective.
So I think we're moving in the
242
00:15:36,500 --> 00:15:39,000
right direction.
So hopefully we'll keep it up in
243
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,500
the these new hires will make
that even better 100% man.
244
00:15:42,900 --> 00:15:44,400
All right.
Well more fun for.
245
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,100
We had a couple more serious
topics here.
246
00:15:46,100 --> 00:15:49,500
Brian, do you see the video?
All we got, we got we got
247
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:53,700
freshman up freshman on campus,
although Warren.
248
00:15:54,900 --> 00:15:59,800
Alright, awesome to see a nice
little thing.
249
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:04,000
The football Twitter feed, put
out with all the guys you know
250
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:09,600
you know basically saying
they're here, saw some tweets if
251
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,600
you didn't see like the guys
with the dots guys leaving.
252
00:16:12,700 --> 00:16:16,000
I'm making it known they were
heading to Blacksburg.
253
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,100
The only one not theirs will for
Pinay who is to my mileage.
254
00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:27,200
Still stuck in France.
You know you know I hope that
255
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,200
something can be arranged for
that young man to get back
256
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,200
stateside to begin not only his
football career but to further
257
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,200
his academic career to
especially you kind of read
258
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,400
about him making you know all
the sacrifices to come over and
259
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,600
play and then to get Recruited
into get offer numerous
260
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:50,100
scholarships, but they're back.
And I'm sure the first thing
261
00:16:50,100 --> 00:16:52,000
they did was get a nice little
throat.
262
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:03,200
Wha make sure they don't have
any Kofi but it's also, there we
263
00:17:03,208 --> 00:17:05,900
go.
Now don't go anywhere for 48
264
00:17:05,900 --> 00:17:09,300
hours while we confirm your -
please and thank you.
265
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,700
All right.
Well Brian there's been some
266
00:17:12,700 --> 00:17:17,300
other news looks kind of pivot
away from the Hokie nation and
267
00:17:17,300 --> 00:17:18,700
let's give it to some.
Use it broke.
268
00:17:18,700 --> 00:17:25,700
Last week Jimbo Fisher in Texas
A&M penalized for NCAA
269
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,800
violations.
He got a show-cause penalty,
270
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:35,300
basically, violated the rules
related between January, 2018,
271
00:17:35,300 --> 00:17:41,100
February 20, 19, Quite a few
things they're going on.
272
00:17:41,100 --> 00:17:43,600
They're getting the six months
show calls for Jimbo Fisher.
273
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,400
There's been a few other things
too.
274
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,500
Like they're not essentially not
going to be able to recruit in
275
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:53,100
the fall which you know the way
things are going is that even
276
00:17:53,100 --> 00:17:56,300
going to matter?
Hopefully hopefully the NCAA
277
00:17:56,300 --> 00:18:01,100
nuts up and says yeah that's
going to be extended to next
278
00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:04,100
fall since we're in a dead
period right now but it's hope
279
00:18:04,100 --> 00:18:07,500
so, especially considering the
fine was a joke.
280
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:18,000
The fine was an absolute joke.
Let me see if I can do something
281
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,100
about.
Like he makes that yeah, five
282
00:18:22,100 --> 00:18:27,000
thousand dollars.
That's not even like a quarter
283
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,000
of a percent of what they take
in Revenue wise.
284
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:34,600
What bullshit I saw, I can't
remember who posted with
285
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:38,300
someone's, like, yeah, that's
like point two five percent of
286
00:18:38,300 --> 00:18:40,400
his annual Salary or something
like that.
287
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:46,400
Like you makes that like eight
hours or something and it is, it
288
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,100
is nothing in the show causes
basically.
289
00:18:50,100 --> 00:18:54,200
Like basically, he can't like
text or email or anything with
290
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,900
the recruits.
But again, it's just kind of the
291
00:18:56,908 --> 00:18:59,300
stats being punished like that
during the covid stuff and it's
292
00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:02,100
not even gonna matter.
Hopefully again, they nut up and
293
00:19:02,100 --> 00:19:04,100
say no, we're going to move this
to next season.
294
00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:08,100
Yeah, I don't foresee the NCAA
nutting up on anything.
295
00:19:09,700 --> 00:19:11,700
Especially related to somebody
like Jimbo.
296
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,100
If what we're seeing with your
things that have happened
297
00:19:16,100 --> 00:19:20,700
recently is is going to be the
parameters that we see going
298
00:19:20,700 --> 00:19:22,200
forward.
We're going to continue seeing
299
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,900
these slaps on the wrist,
especially for programs that
300
00:19:25,900 --> 00:19:29,800
have either high profile
programs or high-profile
301
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,200
coaches.
Yeah.
302
00:19:31,500 --> 00:19:34,500
Now the funny piece is this
actually affects another program
303
00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:36,100
as well?
At least perception in some
304
00:19:36,100 --> 00:19:38,700
people's eyes, the primary guy
that was it.
305
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,200
Placated in this was j.
G j g.
306
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:46,100
Moved over to Tennessee, has
their running backs coach now so
307
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:48,300
it's one of these things.
People have opportunities
308
00:19:48,300 --> 00:19:56,600
McGregor cruden.
Well so and this year he would
309
00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:01,100
America 24/7 coach writing, he's
the number 15 recruiter in the
310
00:20:01,100 --> 00:20:09,500
country.
Well, you know, I'm being is
311
00:20:09,500 --> 00:20:15,700
Tennessee, but have some
potentially man very much
312
00:20:15,700 --> 00:20:18,900
potentially.
Um, it's just it's funny you see
313
00:20:18,900 --> 00:20:22,400
this happen.
And then once again Texas A&M
314
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,300
recruiting really well
Tennessee.
315
00:20:24,900 --> 00:20:28,400
Recruiting, you know, top five
right now and it's one of those
316
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,000
things where it's just kind of
like, yeah, what are you gonna
317
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,100
do jeromy Pruitt because, if
this has happened on your watch,
318
00:20:36,100 --> 00:20:41,000
you know, in people, again, I
think it's the next program that
319
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,100
gets busted with something.
Like this is going to get more
320
00:20:43,100 --> 00:20:46,400
of the Lash right now.
They laid it down for Texas,
321
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,900
A&M.
It's whoever's, busted next.
322
00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:54,200
The NCAA got, Scrutinized got
whipped got thrown fire like
323
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:55,900
what are you doing?
You didn't nothing.
324
00:20:56,100 --> 00:21:00,200
Do the next program is like
three years show cause penalty
325
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,300
postseason ban and you can't
coach for four years.
326
00:21:04,100 --> 00:21:09,600
Uh-huh.
Wait, but Jimbo exactly and if
327
00:21:10,100 --> 00:21:12,400
that's the thing, they're never
going to drop the hammer on
328
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:17,300
someone like Jimbo like that.
Which is, I mean, you know, it
329
00:21:17,300 --> 00:21:20,000
is what it is at this point.
I think we come to expect it.
330
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,400
Anytime one of these major
programs starts getting into
331
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,900
some sort of trouble, it seems
to kind of roll off their back a
332
00:21:27,908 --> 00:21:31,800
little bit.
You know, they'll get, they'll
333
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,300
get the, the cut but they don't
lose the limb exact.
334
00:21:35,500 --> 00:21:39,200
Actly and it's only a minor cut.
It's like it's like our children
335
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,800
falling down on payment and
skinning they're neat.
336
00:21:42,300 --> 00:21:44,100
I heard.
Okay, I'm good.
337
00:21:44,500 --> 00:21:47,200
You rub some dirt on it.
Move Along exactly.
338
00:21:47,500 --> 00:21:51,900
All right, Brian, this just
broke a couple hours ago and,
339
00:21:52,900 --> 00:21:56,100
you know, it's pretty big.
It's it's one of those things.
340
00:21:56,100 --> 00:22:00,200
Basically, the ivy league, has
ruled out clean off, all Sport
341
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,600
with ball.
Do they got perona pandemic?
342
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,200
And right now, no decision has
been made about winter or spring
343
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,800
sports or whether it falls
Force, could be played and the
344
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,300
spring of 2021.
Now, they've already taken some
345
00:22:16,300 --> 00:22:18,200
measures.
I don't think anybody sees this
346
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,000
as a shock.
So much of their stuff is going
347
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,500
online.
I'm sure you saw that over the
348
00:22:22,500 --> 00:22:23,700
last few weeks.
I think, who was it?
349
00:22:23,700 --> 00:22:26,700
Harvard, Harvard, everything's
going to be online.
350
00:22:26,700 --> 00:22:30,300
I'll cool tuition to decrease
from the 47,000 know.
351
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,700
Do you think this is impacting
P5 G5 or the ivy league?
352
00:22:36,700 --> 00:22:41,800
Sort of Different.
The ivy league is definitely
353
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,300
different in the biggest thing
is the ivy league, doesn't
354
00:22:45,300 --> 00:22:49,400
really depend on any athletic
revenue for the functioning of
355
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:54,200
their athletic department.
Obviously it's cake and helps
356
00:22:54,200 --> 00:23:00,500
it's the bonus to help with the
budget, but they would have most
357
00:23:00,500 --> 00:23:04,000
of these Sports even if they
didn't have fans in the stands
358
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,600
and things like that.
So they operate more in the same
359
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,000
room.
Rome as like you know, division
360
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,800
to division three, maybe even
D1, non-scholarship schools like
361
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,200
Davidson.
So I don't think that they're
362
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,700
going to that this is
necessarily indicative of what
363
00:23:22,700 --> 00:23:25,600
we're going to see for G5 R
power 5 in the fall.
364
00:23:26,500 --> 00:23:29,900
That said the fact that anyone
did it is definitely news and
365
00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:34,400
definitely could could be a
precursor, but I don't think it,
366
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:38,700
you know it's necessarily A you
know, T leave.
367
00:23:38,900 --> 00:23:42,700
And we're because this happened
some other she was going to fall
368
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:46,700
there, but it's still, it's
still not good.
369
00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:49,200
In terms of what how we feel
about it.
370
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,900
I think I think it's definitely
probably brings us down a little
371
00:23:52,900 --> 00:23:56,300
bit because the other ones gone
you know, it makes it easier for
372
00:23:56,300 --> 00:23:59,300
others to say, hey well maybe
let's take a look at what
373
00:23:59,300 --> 00:24:02,600
they're doing.
Yeah, and if you don't remember,
374
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:07,200
they were the first to cancel
their basketball tournament back
375
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,800
in March.
And then slowly the tea leaves
376
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,900
everything fell into place that
was a is a little bit different
377
00:24:15,900 --> 00:24:18,800
than it is.
Now the amount of knowledge
378
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:25,100
about the coronavirus in March
compared to the 8th of July you
379
00:24:25,100 --> 00:24:28,900
know, almost four months later
is completely different point in
380
00:24:28,900 --> 00:24:32,800
time, people were thinking 78
percent death rate.
381
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,800
Well it's about a one two, a one
and a half percent.
382
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,100
Is that what you've been?
And seeing it's about about 11
383
00:24:41,100 --> 00:24:44,900
percent for kind of the healthy
population and four to five
384
00:24:44,900 --> 00:24:47,700
percent, for immunocompromised
or elderly.
385
00:24:48,100 --> 00:24:50,000
Yeah.
And it's even bigger on the
386
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,100
elderly State.
I mean, you know, you, every
387
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:57,200
keep an eye on the science like
60, you know, like it's four and
388
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,100
a half, you get into the 70s,
it's like six and a half.
389
00:25:01,100 --> 00:25:04,100
You get into the 80s and older,
you know, you're back where it
390
00:25:04,100 --> 00:25:07,100
really is affecting.
Plus the immuno compromised,
391
00:25:07,100 --> 00:25:10,600
folks.
But in, but in reality, we're
392
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,500
starting to know more valuable
and yet there are spikes, that
393
00:25:15,500 --> 00:25:17,800
sucks.
Luckily we're in a state, that's
394
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:19,800
not seeing a spike.
We're actually seeing more
395
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:24,800
downward Trend.
So again, who knows.
396
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,800
I do think you know some people
are like, oh this is it, this is
397
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,400
it.
Oh my God, they're going to like
398
00:25:31,300 --> 00:25:33,900
y'all don't realize the amount
of money.
399
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,300
Not only the these athletic
Department's depend on but the
400
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:45,500
It is ending these, the
communities, I mean and I don't
401
00:25:45,500 --> 00:25:49,000
want to try to be doing Gloom.
But if there was no college
402
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:54,500
football season certain cities,
and towns Blacksburg would be
403
00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:59,400
one of them Blacksburg, they
would place like Tuscaloosa, you
404
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,900
know, even a place like
Greenville.
405
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:08,800
They would get hit hard in me.
It's that's a small, very small
406
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,100
percentage, but you imagine
literally saying, well, we're
407
00:26:12,100 --> 00:26:14,100
going to cancel and later prayer
can own.
408
00:26:14,100 --> 00:26:18,300
You know what?
100 cities, 100 cities are small
409
00:26:18,300 --> 00:26:20,000
City pounds.
Yeah.
410
00:26:20,300 --> 00:26:23,300
And that's kind of one of those
couch.
411
00:26:23,300 --> 00:26:25,000
Like do it.
Do we do that?
412
00:26:25,100 --> 00:26:29,600
No, you know, because
essentially that's kind of,
413
00:26:29,900 --> 00:26:33,200
that's kind of what they're if
they decide to cancel your Going
414
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:37,600
to see a lot of businesses in
these college towns and go under
415
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,900
sure and it's going to be I hate
to say it but it's going to
416
00:26:40,900 --> 00:26:45,400
disproportionately affect the
area like Blacksburg you know,
417
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,000
compared to somewhere like
Columbus and percent.
418
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,800
Even though they have, you know,
almost double the fans at a
419
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:59,000
given game than we do.
They have other things going on
420
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,700
in their city that can Bowie at
least carry them through.
421
00:27:02,900 --> 00:27:07,400
Whereas most of the town of
Blacksburg depends on students
422
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,900
being there and people coming in
on Saturdays.
423
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,700
Yeah.
And whether it be Saturday in
424
00:27:12,700 --> 00:27:16,600
the fall or Saturdays in the
winter for basketball game, or a
425
00:27:16,608 --> 00:27:18,500
Friday night game.
So, 100%.
426
00:27:19,100 --> 00:27:21,200
All right, well, we're going to
move on, and actually get to our
427
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,700
topic today.
We need to defend Lane Stadium.
428
00:27:25,700 --> 00:27:27,800
Boom.
All right.
429
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,700
So Force for games, versus the
ACC UVA.
430
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:37,300
Say, Georgia Tech, Boston,
College, and Miami Brian.
431
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,200
Let's just start with them, just
down the road.
432
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:45,000
So you can see, for let's start
with UVA, they are returning
433
00:27:45,700 --> 00:27:49,700
seven starters on offense
Mountain starters on defense.
434
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,000
I mean, Brian, who they losing
it?
435
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:56,700
They losing someone who
literally carried them, to, at
436
00:27:56,700 --> 00:27:59,500
least three victories last year,
maybe more.
437
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,500
Yeah.
So they are losing.
438
00:28:03,100 --> 00:28:04,900
Bryce Perkins, their
quarterback.
439
00:28:05,700 --> 00:28:07,300
No big deal.
You're just the heart and soul
440
00:28:07,300 --> 00:28:14,300
of the offense and accounting
for almost 4,500 yards of
441
00:28:14,300 --> 00:28:19,900
offense himself.
So yeah, 3530 yards passing with
442
00:28:19,900 --> 00:28:24,300
22 touchdowns.
And another 769 rushing with 11
443
00:28:24,300 --> 00:28:28,200
touchdowns, you know,
second-team all-acc got signed
444
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,700
with the Rams as an undrafted
free agent this year.
445
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,100
So that's going to be the big,
big departure, but there's other
446
00:28:35,100 --> 00:28:38,100
big things going on there as
well, because a couple of guys
447
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:41,300
that he was throwing that ball
to are gone as well.
448
00:28:41,900 --> 00:28:46,000
I'll cease Dubois wide, receiver
all-acc, honorable mention had
449
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:53,300
1062 yards and six touchdowns
last year and Joe read the wide
450
00:28:53,300 --> 00:28:59,800
receiver and return Specialist
made first team, all-acc is an
451
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:04,200
all-purpose kick returner.
Six return yards and two
452
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:09,700
touchdowns and added another 679
receiving and he got picked up
453
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,800
by the Chargers as an undrafted
free agent.
454
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:18,800
So we're talking about two guys
there that are now in the NFL on
455
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,200
rosters.
As of right now then that's just
456
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,600
on the offensive side of the
ball.
457
00:29:24,700 --> 00:29:27,500
They lost a couple guys that you
mentioned, non returning
458
00:29:27,500 --> 00:29:31,300
starters, the two guys they lost
or pretty key as well about
459
00:29:31,300 --> 00:29:35,100
Bryce hole here.
Obviously, he was missing most
460
00:29:35,100 --> 00:29:39,100
of the least the back half of
the season last year, but he was
461
00:29:39,100 --> 00:29:44,800
projected as a first rounder
even before all this injury took
462
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,100
place and he got injured against
Miami, still ended up getting
463
00:29:49,100 --> 00:29:52,400
drafted by the Jets in the fifth
round and he was second-team
464
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,400
All-American in 2018.
So this is a guy that
465
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,600
potentially could have been a
second or third round, pick a
466
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,400
feudal went out last year and
then ended up coming back and
467
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,900
unfortunately getting injured
and Prettiest dress that a
468
00:30:03,908 --> 00:30:07,800
little bit there and the last
guy I want to talk about is
469
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,800
Jordan back.
He led the team in tackles,
470
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,600
sorry, lesbian sex with seven
and a half and added 69 tackles
471
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,200
and he got picked up by the
Panthers as an undrafted free
472
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,000
agent.
So, you know, I've got five guys
473
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,500
here, four of them are on NFL
rosters right now I'm sure
474
00:30:24,500 --> 00:30:26,500
Dubois is going to get picked up
at some point.
475
00:30:26,500 --> 00:30:31,100
He's definitely got the hands
and the size I think speed is a
476
00:30:31,108 --> 00:30:32,600
concern.
He's doesn't quite have that.
477
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,300
NFL speed that you're looking
at, but I think he might find
478
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:38,800
his way on the roster depending
on what the NFL season looks
479
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,100
like as well.
So those are the big guys?
480
00:30:41,100 --> 00:30:46,300
They're going to be missing.
Yeah, man, you know, Perkins,
481
00:30:46,300 --> 00:30:50,200
was that offense last year?
People can say what they want.
482
00:30:50,700 --> 00:30:52,700
I watched clearly, I watch the
tech game.
483
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,100
If he's not on the field, they
lose by 20 points.
484
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,400
Don't at me?
The are bu game.
485
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,600
If he doesn't do what he does in
the latter half of that game,
486
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,200
they lose totally life.
Last year?
487
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:10,000
Yeah, Florida State. again later
Rolex, in that game, They
488
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,800
literally it was they could have
lost three games, one being
489
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:18,600
absolutely wretched loss total.
You could only use heroin last
490
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,400
year, but Brian is a kind of
kind of scroll through here.
491
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,000
And look at their schedule last
year.
492
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,100
After Bryce hall, went down in
that.
493
00:31:25,100 --> 00:31:28,900
Miami game.
They only the sea.
494
00:31:28,900 --> 00:31:33,700
They gave up 28 points
Louisville. 31 of UNC 28, to
495
00:31:33,700 --> 00:31:39,300
Georgia, Tech, 27, to Liberty,
and then 32 us, And then I'm not
496
00:31:39,300 --> 00:31:40,600
going to count the other two
games.
497
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:46,100
So we're on the first ones, they
had given up 17 - 35 to Notre
498
00:31:46,100 --> 00:31:52,800
Dame but that's a little
different 1724 1714 10.
499
00:31:54,300 --> 00:31:57,400
Kind of a difference in the
Cadence, there of how many
500
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,700
points they gave up after Bryce
hall, went down.
501
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,700
So they got to kind of live
without him for a little while,
502
00:32:06,300 --> 00:32:09,800
but now.
Well, Midseason, something like
503
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,600
that happens.
People don't know what you're
504
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,300
doing until the tape.
Slowly starts getting on there.
505
00:32:14,700 --> 00:32:17,000
But how is quite OK, we kind of
know what you're going to do
506
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:22,400
without a lock down the corner.
I think at the big loss in think
507
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:23,300
me.
And you've already kind of
508
00:32:23,300 --> 00:32:26,100
talked about it with them.
If they're going to make a Bowl
509
00:32:26,100 --> 00:32:31,700
this year, they're going to win
some rock fights like 1417 1413
510
00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:35,300
because of losing that much on
offense.
511
00:32:35,300 --> 00:32:38,500
Now, recruiting classes Braun,
they had left.
512
00:32:38,700 --> 00:32:42,900
Years ago.
Okay, 58 and twenty Seventeen,
513
00:32:43,100 --> 00:32:48,700
fifty nine and twenty 1839 and
2019, another got some transfer.
514
00:32:48,700 --> 00:32:52,400
So who is the key guys, coming
back, and then some of the
515
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:57,400
emerging players.
So, in terms of returning, key
516
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:02,200
starters, first one, I want to
highlight is going to be the
517
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,600
other receiver.
That was getting some of those
518
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,200
balls thrown to him other than
the two that are now.
519
00:33:09,300 --> 00:33:11,100
No, now gone.
So that's going to be a Tyrell
520
00:33:11,100 --> 00:33:14,700
Jana wide receiver.
He's the only returning primary
521
00:33:14,700 --> 00:33:18,500
target from last season.
He had a big second half of the
522
00:33:18,500 --> 00:33:21,100
Season especially when they had
to start scoring some more
523
00:33:21,100 --> 00:33:27,000
points once price hauling down.
So ended up with eight hundred
524
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,900
eighty six yards, receiving and
three touchdowns.
525
00:33:29,900 --> 00:33:33,800
So pretty big numbers in terms
of yards there for, you know, a
526
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:38,200
second or third option but
obviously your need to see his
527
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,200
touchdown.
Go up if he's going to replace
528
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:47,000
some of that production that was
lost Wayne taller Papa returning
529
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,300
starting running back.
I probably butchered that name
530
00:33:50,300 --> 00:33:57,600
but sorry Wayne but it is what
it is. 473 yards, rushing 12
531
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:03,300
touchdowns in 2019.
Obviously any running back last
532
00:34:03,300 --> 00:34:05,400
year was kind of a secondary
option.
533
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,300
In terms of the running game
rice was the Number one option
534
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:13,100
in the running game.
Just you know looking at that
535
00:34:13,100 --> 00:34:16,500
the top rusher was out rushed
almost double by the
536
00:34:16,500 --> 00:34:20,600
quarterback.
Touchdowns are pretty good for
537
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,400
him, that would 12.
So if you can replicate that
538
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,900
production and add some more
rushing yards, he could be a
539
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:30,500
threat in 2020.
Let's move to the defense
540
00:34:30,500 --> 00:34:35,100
though, Zane's and gear.
He was a linebacker for them.
541
00:34:35,100 --> 00:34:38,000
LED them led the team in tackles
108 last year.
542
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:44,000
Really did some big things for
them because he can move across
543
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,500
the field.
Well, and really make a lot of
544
00:34:47,500 --> 00:34:51,000
plays from that inside
linebacker position and the
545
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,699
other guys, Joey blunt.
He was a safety was third team,
546
00:34:54,699 --> 00:34:59,500
all-acc in 2019, he had 95
combined tackles from the safety
547
00:34:59,500 --> 00:35:01,400
spot.
So he was making some plays in
548
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,600
the running game obviously to
get those numbers up and he had
549
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,600
four sacks and three
interceptions as well.
550
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:11,200
So kind of a do-it-all player.
Or not, you know, the most elite
551
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,100
safety but a guy that can really
make plays in different ways and
552
00:35:15,100 --> 00:35:17,400
hurt you in different ways.
So that's going to be the big
553
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,200
guys.
They have returning that we're
554
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,500
standouts last year.
Yeah they've got a lot of
555
00:35:23,500 --> 00:35:27,100
unknown and I'll talk about that
a little bit here in the the
556
00:35:27,100 --> 00:35:31,800
biggest one is going to be all
kind of have them 1A and 1B here
557
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,900
is who's going to be their
quarterback to replace the
558
00:35:35,900 --> 00:35:40,100
production of brace Perkins.
The lead guy in that role is
559
00:35:40,100 --> 00:35:48,200
going to be Brennan Armstrong.
Lefty not quite the dynamic
560
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,800
Runner that Perkins was
obviously but you're bigger guy
561
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:58,200
kind of more of a you know, Tim
Tebow taysom Hill kind of that
562
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,000
hybrid player.
So I mean he could potentially
563
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,200
do some damage in that role.
Definitely Compares a little bit
564
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:10,800
more to taste them than to TiVo.
And still still, you know, like
565
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,000
most of those that both of those
guys are still in raw thrower,
566
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:18,200
but not quite as raw.
As Perkins was when he came to
567
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,700
UVA initially.
But again, you're not talking
568
00:36:20,700 --> 00:36:24,600
about the same degree of
athleticism and you got Katie on
569
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,400
Thompson who the quarterback
transfer from Mississippi State.
570
00:36:29,900 --> 00:36:35,500
He's a better thrower than
Perkins and probably is close to
571
00:36:35,500 --> 00:36:38,000
him in terms of Athletics
athleticism.
572
00:36:38,100 --> 00:36:41,900
I'm an explosion with his legs.
The question being is, can he
573
00:36:41,900 --> 00:36:46,700
learn this offense fast enough
and get up to speed before the
574
00:36:46,700 --> 00:36:49,400
start of the Season especially
now that we're dealing with all
575
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,100
this covid stuff and I know
we're going to have an extended
576
00:36:52,100 --> 00:36:56,400
camp, but here's here's a guy
that probably could have used a
577
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,800
little bit more time with the
coaches even if it was just
578
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,700
getting mental reps, that he's
been able to get.
579
00:37:00,700 --> 00:37:04,500
So I think that's going to be
key to whether or not he can
580
00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:06,400
pass Brennan.
There is, can you pick up that
581
00:37:06,408 --> 00:37:09,600
offense fast enough?
So that's going to be the big
582
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,700
thing.
You need to replace another
583
00:37:12,700 --> 00:37:16,000
thing they need to look at is
their offensive line.
584
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,700
They look good.
Along the front.
585
00:37:19,700 --> 00:37:24,800
They've got seven, guys, that
have all started games at the
586
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,300
power 5 level.
Are they?
587
00:37:27,300 --> 00:37:29,400
They've got seven.
Guys are starting to the power 5
588
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:32,800
level, the problem is damn about
all they have on scholarship.
589
00:37:33,500 --> 00:37:38,100
So one guy goes down their
quarterbacks going to be,
590
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,800
they're going to be putting long
walk on land that they're gonna
591
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,800
get killed.
If they have a couple of just
592
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:49,200
not even like big injuries just
like, oh, you know, Sprained his
593
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,000
wrist can't play for two weeks.
Yeah.
594
00:37:52,700 --> 00:37:55,500
So I mean like we kind of had on
the defensive line the last
595
00:37:55,500 --> 00:37:59,500
couple years, they kind of feel
pretty good about their their
596
00:37:59,500 --> 00:38:03,300
first line but they're really
kind of questionable and their
597
00:38:03,300 --> 00:38:08,300
depth and if they have got a
grad transfer from Penn State,
598
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:13,000
Alex Geller stood he's again one
of only seven guys that are on
599
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,700
scholarship right now and
they're going to need him to
600
00:38:15,700 --> 00:38:19,700
really step up and be a player.
If they're going to have any
601
00:38:19,700 --> 00:38:22,000
sort of success because right
now, they're pretty much rolling
602
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,700
with the bare minimum
scholarship, players that you
603
00:38:24,707 --> 00:38:28,500
would like to have on an
offensive line, take you on a
604
00:38:28,508 --> 00:38:32,400
road trip.
You prefer at least have seven
605
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:37,000
guys that you can depend on when
you take a, take a road trip.
606
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,600
So they're going to be
struggling for depth but I think
607
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,900
they really liked their front
five and the the two guys, the
608
00:38:44,900 --> 00:38:48,600
two primary guys, they have to
rotate in so deep.
609
00:38:48,700 --> 00:38:51,800
Offensive line is is another
area where they're going to
610
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,900
probably see some more
production.
611
00:38:54,900 --> 00:38:58,900
They really gelled late in the
year at that position.
612
00:38:58,900 --> 00:39:01,600
I think they got better
especially I think they had to
613
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:05,700
because of losing price.
Whole had to catch produce more
614
00:39:05,700 --> 00:39:09,000
pressure and the guy that was
doing it was Juwan.
615
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,900
Biggs who was a defensive,
lineman had a lot of time as a
616
00:39:12,900 --> 00:39:15,200
freshman there.
He's going to need to take
617
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,600
another step because he's going
to be A little bit more.
618
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,900
I think this year again kind of
going back to the some of the
619
00:39:23,908 --> 00:39:26,300
secondary pieces, they need to
replace.
620
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,200
But he had 19 tackles and some
limited time in the back half of
621
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,300
the season three tackles for
loss of sack.
622
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,000
So if he can step in, they could
be all right.
623
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,400
Up front on the defensive side.
But those are the guys that I
624
00:39:39,408 --> 00:39:42,800
see is either, you know, key
guys or guys that are going to
625
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,700
step into major roles this year.
Yeah, I don't think you're wrong
626
00:39:46,700 --> 00:39:49,900
about any of them on isil Gana.
Now the only question I have,
627
00:39:49,900 --> 00:39:53,600
yeah, he had a good season last
year, with how many guys were on
628
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,600
Jaguar, and on Joe read, every
time they snap the ball in on
629
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,600
Bryce.
He was almost forgotten guy and
630
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,400
his it was that the reason he
had such good statistics and
631
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,500
came on late in the year or is
it because he's a good receiver.
632
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,000
This year.
We'll find out people too much
633
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:10,800
to produce.
Yeah, he's a good receiver if
634
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,500
his numbers drop off.
You know it's like yeah well it
635
00:40:14,500 --> 00:40:17,600
doesn't hurt to have two guys
who are looked at with the NFL
636
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,700
the Other to the quarterback
battle.
637
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,900
I mean to me it's wide open.
Yeah Brennan's been there but he
638
00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:26,800
didn't get the spring.
I think if they're going to
639
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:30,300
spring for an Armstrong's their
starter, without even a
640
00:40:30,308 --> 00:40:33,900
question, then they go out and
get T.
641
00:40:33,900 --> 00:40:37,500
It counts and Thompson and it's
almost like if they come in and
642
00:40:37,500 --> 00:40:40,500
they're equal or grunting one,
we have hair Barb.
643
00:40:40,500 --> 00:40:44,100
Does Bronco just say listen,
we're not good enough.
644
00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:47,300
Authentically to have a system
quarterback running.
645
00:40:47,300 --> 00:40:50,500
We need the best athlete on the
Field to essentially kind of do
646
00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:54,700
what Bryce did and content is a
four-star when he came out.
647
00:40:54,700 --> 00:40:58,300
So, he definitely has some skill
that he was a top-10, jul 2014,
648
00:40:58,300 --> 00:41:03,400
08 back.
So that's going to be very
649
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,300
interesting to see what happens
over the next.
650
00:41:05,300 --> 00:41:09,400
When we start camping, a few
weeks here, where's that depth
651
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,900
chart?
Go and is it also one of those
652
00:41:11,900 --> 00:41:15,500
things where what if it starts
with, they got played Georgia to
653
00:41:15,500 --> 00:41:20,400
begin with?
Yeah, I mean, You know, we all
654
00:41:20,408 --> 00:41:24,600
want to crush him as confidence,
but you know, coaches test on to
655
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,200
do that.
But printing our phone goes out
656
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,100
there and looks like dog shit.
Okay, we're just put Chianti in
657
00:41:30,100 --> 00:41:33,600
and what if he looks bad?
Now, luckily they don't have,
658
00:41:34,500 --> 00:41:38,000
you know, they do have some
weaker opponents, but then
659
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:44,800
they've got Clemson just weeks
after You know, or is it one of
660
00:41:44,808 --> 00:41:48,100
those things where Bronco is
just going to say whoever wins
661
00:41:48,100 --> 00:41:50,100
this Camp battle, unless they
get hurt?
662
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,700
They're my guy because if not,
I'm having to play with Egos and
663
00:41:54,700 --> 00:41:58,300
having to play with guys
thinking about things as we do
664
00:41:58,300 --> 00:41:59,300
this.
Yeah.
665
00:42:00,100 --> 00:42:03,500
So yeah, I'm probably good on
you.
666
00:42:03,500 --> 00:42:07,700
Be a good girl, you be a good.
Did they have any coaching
667
00:42:08,500 --> 00:42:11,800
changes up?
Oh yeah man, they did they
668
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:13,900
actually Ali lost this couple
significance.
669
00:42:13,900 --> 00:42:17,700
Thanks for saying that Vic Sotto
who was their defensive line
670
00:42:17,700 --> 00:42:20,700
coach, you know.
God the thing you said started,
671
00:42:20,700 --> 00:42:25,100
gelatine in a year he not only
got higher, he got hired by Blue
672
00:42:25,100 --> 00:42:29,800
Blood, he got hired by USC at
that says a lot.
673
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:33,000
Right there, he's been replaced
by Clint symptom.
674
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:38,000
Now Soto also had a significant
history with Mendenhall.
675
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,200
This is the first player that
ever committed to him when he
676
00:42:40,207 --> 00:42:44,200
took over BYU.
So this Like some guy he found
677
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,200
six years ago and he's a really
good like a this is a connection
678
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,600
going back for 15 years.
That's a system.
679
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,900
Devotee.
They go.
680
00:42:52,700 --> 00:42:55,100
Now set them comes over from
Delaware, he'd been there for
681
00:42:55,100 --> 00:42:58,300
three years with Danny Rocco, he
was an All-American while he was
682
00:42:58,300 --> 00:43:01,400
at UVA.
He did get drafted in the second
683
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,700
round and he did play in the
league for three years.
684
00:43:03,700 --> 00:43:07,500
So familiarity with the school,
NFL type guy.
685
00:43:07,500 --> 00:43:11,200
So but any time you sort of see
that fluctuation of movement,
686
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:15,900
Brian like, And this guy didn't
go to another a slight tear up.
687
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,800
He literally went through one of
the top 10 programs in the
688
00:43:19,808 --> 00:43:23,200
country.
And I'm really interested to see
689
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,100
how that deal on that played so
well, at the end of our period,
690
00:43:26,100 --> 00:43:29,600
if they're able to continue
that, because they're going to
691
00:43:29,900 --> 00:43:33,100
have to be that to get them into
a Bowl this year.
692
00:43:33,700 --> 00:43:36,700
Yeah, no doubt.
All right, let's move on with
693
00:43:36,700 --> 00:43:38,600
the Ramblin wreck from Georgia
Tech.
694
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,600
The team returning, the most
production in the League.
695
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:46,700
This year, they're returning
nine starters on offense there.
696
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:52,200
Turning every single starter on
defense behind when I say that
697
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:59,400
like, is there anybody that
they've lost their?
698
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:05,000
So I got a, I got a few guys
here that they did lose.
699
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,100
Most of the production is on
offense.
700
00:44:08,100 --> 00:44:11,100
They had two guys that were
heavy contributors on defense
701
00:44:11,100 --> 00:44:14,200
that they lost that we will take
a look at, but the big guy on
702
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,600
offense is going to be Tyler
Davis.
703
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:20,200
He's six round draft pick by the
Jags.
704
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,200
He had 148 yards and a touchdown
in 11 games in 2019, which isn't
705
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:28,800
very impressive.
But his skill set was unique,
706
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:33,200
he's kind of got, you know, that
joker type build.
707
00:44:33,700 --> 00:44:38,000
So with that unique, skillset
definitely, he was able to Pivot
708
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:43,400
that into a role in the NFL but
obviously that's an offense that
709
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:49,100
was really in a Phase.
So not very many of these
710
00:44:49,100 --> 00:44:51,600
offensive numbers are going to
be impressive that I'm going to
711
00:44:51,607 --> 00:44:53,900
throw at you over the course of
this time.
712
00:44:53,900 --> 00:44:59,400
So I wouldn't necessarily count
the 148 and a touchdown against
713
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:00,800
good old.
Tyler Davis there.
714
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,300
But another guy that was lost is
going to be Jarrett's others.
715
00:45:06,300 --> 00:45:10,200
He was an offensive tackle, only
played at Georgia Tech one year
716
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:14,200
he was originally at Vanderbilt
and transferred in, but he was
717
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,600
the guy that was able to help
them move.
718
00:45:16,700 --> 00:45:20,600
Away from some of those triple
option techniques and into more
719
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:25,900
of a spread type system.
And he did have some draft Buzz
720
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,600
heading into the NFL draft this
year but he ultimately wasn't
721
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:33,100
signed or picked up on the other
side of the ball.
722
00:45:33,300 --> 00:45:39,100
These are guys that started at a
point in the season but the big
723
00:45:39,100 --> 00:45:40,900
one here is Brent avia's
Clanton.
724
00:45:40,900 --> 00:45:45,900
He was a three-year starter did
lose his position in the course
725
00:45:45,900 --> 00:45:49,400
of the Season.
Got Coming usurped registered
726
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:54,300
one second 2019 kind of more of
a plotter.
727
00:45:54,300 --> 00:45:56,600
He was there.
He was clogging things up but he
728
00:45:56,600 --> 00:46:01,100
didn't necessarily feel a stat
sheet and Christian Campbell is
729
00:46:01,100 --> 00:46:03,800
a safety.
He had 44, tackles in 2019, kind
730
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,200
of the, the first guy off the
bench for them making some
731
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,600
plays.
So those are the guys that
732
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:13,000
they're going to be missing on
offense and defense this year.
733
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,400
Yeah, with the transition like
this, when you mention stats, it
734
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,100
really it really doesn't matter
from what they were doing.
735
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,700
Kind of like, you know, when I
give these recruiting class
736
00:46:24,700 --> 00:46:28,300
ranks, does it really like just
jump out because again, going
737
00:46:28,300 --> 00:46:32,700
from a triple option to, you
know, the offense that they're
738
00:46:32,700 --> 00:46:35,100
running under Jeff Collins is a
little different than they were
739
00:46:35,500 --> 00:46:44,200
48th and 28th, 2017 4420 1815,
2019, you know.
740
00:46:44,300 --> 00:46:49,300
So not really super high, not
even one really for high
741
00:46:49,500 --> 00:46:54,400
recruiting class and again
basing it towards the triple
742
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,200
option you know who are some of
their key guys, Braun coming
743
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:03,400
back that have to play better to
improve community on record.
744
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,300
So there's one guy would say
doesn't have to necessarily play
745
00:47:07,300 --> 00:47:10,000
better.
I think he just needs to fill in
746
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:13,800
more of what he was already
doing and in 2019 that's Jordan
747
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,400
Mason.
With the with the Smash Mouth
748
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,700
spread, he's going to be the guy
that's going to be carrying the
749
00:47:19,700 --> 00:47:23,200
load for them.
And in 2019, he had eight
750
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,600
hundred ninety nine yards.
Rushing and seven touchdowns so
751
00:47:26,900 --> 00:47:29,100
pretty good numbers, especially
for an offense.
752
00:47:29,100 --> 00:47:32,000
That was pretty anemic across
the board.
753
00:47:32,500 --> 00:47:35,200
The fact that they were pretty
much able to stack the Box
754
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,500
against him.
He was still able to get some
755
00:47:37,500 --> 00:47:40,000
production there so that that's
that's promising numbers.
756
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,700
And I think you're going to see
a lot more of that this year.
757
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:46,500
Partially because of some of the
things I'm going to go into with
758
00:47:46,500 --> 00:47:49,900
the emerging talent.
But the guy that has to get
759
00:47:49,900 --> 00:47:54,000
better in 2010, 2020 is going to
be James Graham.
760
00:47:55,000 --> 00:48:00,000
So he was a starter for most of
the season last year 1000 164
761
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:03,300
yards passing and 12 touchdowns
with seven interceptions.
762
00:48:04,100 --> 00:48:08,200
Again, those are not numbers
that you really want to climb up
763
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:14,100
on a mountain and say look at
this but they're not great.
764
00:48:14,100 --> 00:48:19,500
Especially 24 for the amount
that amount of starts and snaps
765
00:48:19,500 --> 00:48:22,900
to the ad on the field, he's
going to have to take the next
766
00:48:22,900 --> 00:48:26,600
step because at some point,
they're going to have to throw
767
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,500
the ball to get that.
That that box cleared out a
768
00:48:30,508 --> 00:48:34,200
little bit because they want to
run but they can't run.
769
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:39,500
If everybody's in the box and on
the defensive side of the ball,
770
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,500
big players going to be David
Currie.
771
00:48:41,500 --> 00:48:44,300
He had ninety seven tackles in
2019, death.
772
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,700
Finally the emotional leader on
the defense.
773
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,100
So look for him to be a guy
that's going to continue in that
774
00:48:50,100 --> 00:48:54,700
role and have a hopefully more
productive year for them.
775
00:48:54,700 --> 00:48:57,700
If they want to take another
step and maybe at least get
776
00:48:57,700 --> 00:49:01,200
somewhere in the in the bowl
eligible range this year.
777
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,700
Absolutely.
And Brian you mentioned it with
778
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,500
to me?
I'm he's the guy I've got it.
779
00:49:08,700 --> 00:49:13,000
James Grant asked improved if he
doesn't improve, you know, they
780
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:16,400
might have marginal.
From 39 to maybe four to five
781
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,600
wins but not to getting back
into a bowl, not doubling their
782
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:23,300
win total.
And when I hear you say Smash
783
00:49:23,300 --> 00:49:28,900
Mouth spread, I kind of think
like what does that mean?
784
00:49:28,900 --> 00:49:33,400
It's like well you know Brent
key he's an offensive lineman at
785
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:37,700
that is a offensive coordinator.
So make sense that he's
786
00:49:37,700 --> 00:49:39,600
probably.
Again, trying to leverage I'm
787
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,400
guessing a lot of spacing to
say.
788
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,200
We're going to run at you but
we're going to do it in unique.
789
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,100
Quais.
So here, I think a little bit,
790
00:49:47,100 --> 00:49:49,400
little bit of what Ohio state
does.
791
00:49:49,400 --> 00:50:05,300
I mean, that's, that's kind of
the philosophy, okay, you'll see
792
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:09,800
the ball around a little bit as
well, but they're definitely a
793
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:14,000
run first Sprint team.
Yeah, all right, well Brian.
794
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,300
I've already said it, they're
going to have to get better.
795
00:50:17,300 --> 00:50:20,200
James, G gonna have to get
better who are some of the other
796
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:24,300
guys that are emerging that for
this team to go from a 3-1 team
797
00:50:24,300 --> 00:50:28,500
to potentially six making it
back to a bowl who has to be
798
00:50:28,500 --> 00:50:32,000
some of their emerging Talent.
So the big thing is going to be
799
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,600
again in proving that offensive
line and getting offensive line
800
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,500
that is more built for this
special.
801
00:50:37,500 --> 00:50:43,200
I'll spread over some of those
under sized mostly run blocking
802
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:47,200
only Players that they had under
the triple option.
803
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,800
So it's going to start with
getting a guy, like, Kenny
804
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:54,700
Cooper back on the field.
He was, he was Center.
805
00:50:54,700 --> 00:50:57,600
He was missed most of 2019, with
an injury for them.
806
00:50:58,300 --> 00:51:00,700
So he's going to step up
especially with his password
807
00:51:00,700 --> 00:51:02,700
because he is still a legacy
player.
808
00:51:03,100 --> 00:51:08,500
So that's not his strong suit
but he's a very good run
809
00:51:08,500 --> 00:51:11,200
blocker, he was good for them in
terms of communicating with the
810
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:15,100
offensive line back in 2018.
So I think they'll I really
811
00:51:15,100 --> 00:51:19,100
appreciate having him back in
that role and apparently, he's
812
00:51:19,100 --> 00:51:21,800
based on what I've read is shown
some promise with the past Pro.
813
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:27,000
So hopefully that that
translates for them, they also
814
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,000
added Ryan Johnson as a grad
transfer from Tennessee.
815
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:33,100
So you coming from a blue blood
or at least up from a recruiting
816
00:51:33,100 --> 00:51:35,200
perspective?
A blue blood program here.
817
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,100
You know definitely going to
have that build that they're
818
00:51:39,100 --> 00:51:43,900
looking for to kind of step in
more of the larger and taller
819
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:45,800
often.
Of lineman versus some of the
820
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,800
guys that they what they had
previously under Johnson.
821
00:51:49,900 --> 00:51:53,400
And when we moved to the
defensive side, the big two
822
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:58,100
names that I kept seeing was the
with big name that I was seeing
823
00:51:58,100 --> 00:52:01,000
was in.
Tony is Clayton, defensive end
824
00:52:01,300 --> 00:52:05,400
transfer from Florida, set up
all of 2019.
825
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:09,100
This guy was a pretty highly
rated player coming out of high
826
00:52:09,100 --> 00:52:13,400
school and just couldn't quite
find a spot in the Florida
827
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,500
rotation.
But now with Georgia Tech, he's
828
00:52:16,500 --> 00:52:19,400
looking to probably make some
noise being the their primary
829
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,100
pass rusher.
Going into 2020.
830
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:27,000
I'm in the last guy that I
wanted to highlight here is a
831
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,600
wide receiver and a freshman at
that.
832
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:35,100
So when we talk about wide
receivers with their previous
833
00:52:35,100 --> 00:52:40,300
offensive play style, they were
more block first guys they were
834
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:44,600
they were pretty much brought
into block and when they got I'd
835
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:48,900
long down situations, run some
go routes and catch balls that
836
00:52:48,900 --> 00:52:55,200
are just thrown up in the air.
Not exactly a crazy wild tree or
837
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:56,900
developmental, you know.
Yeah.
838
00:52:57,500 --> 00:53:00,700
It's very much.
Can you run go routes and can
839
00:53:00,700 --> 00:53:04,600
you out jump, guys?
And then, can you block?
840
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,900
So this is more of the wide
receiver that they're going to
841
00:53:07,908 --> 00:53:10,500
look for, in their, their new
philosophy.
842
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,300
And here's a big step for you.
He tied Calvin Johnson's.
843
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,100
Freshman, receiving touchdown
record with seven.
844
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:23,300
So think about it g.
Only had 12 touchdowns the whole
845
00:53:23,300 --> 00:53:27,900
season, seven of them went to
this guy.
846
00:53:28,500 --> 00:53:32,000
No he's Dependable got a lot to
build upon that in terms of
847
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,600
getting the yardage numbers up
because that's what they need to
848
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,200
do across the board.
But we know this guy can make
849
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:40,700
plays and get in the end zone.
So those are the guys that are
850
00:53:40,900 --> 00:53:43,000
looking to probably take the
next step to season.
851
00:53:43,300 --> 00:53:46,200
Absolutely.
You mentioned in Tony's Clayton,
852
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,100
he was a pretty high.
Guy coming out.
853
00:53:49,100 --> 00:53:52,000
I mean he was a four-star.
Here's a top 50 player when he
854
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,800
committed to Florida back under
him back in 2016, that's when
855
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:58,800
McElwain was the head coach.
But clearly there was a
856
00:53:58,808 --> 00:54:00,300
connection there with Jeff
Collins.
857
00:54:00,300 --> 00:54:02,400
You have caution was the
defensive coordinator at that
858
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,900
point in time.
So one of those things and a
859
00:54:04,900 --> 00:54:08,100
program like Florida if you
don't get yourself to the top of
860
00:54:08,100 --> 00:54:11,000
the depth chart pretty quick,
even being a high for you can
861
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:15,100
five-star guys usually you can
get some planted pretty quick
862
00:54:15,100 --> 00:54:18,000
because there's more four and
five-star guys coming.
863
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:21,600
Those type programs the
opportunity, to develop just
864
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:24,700
isn't there.
So he has the connection with
865
00:54:24,700 --> 00:54:28,900
Collins, he's a talented player
especially coming out of high
866
00:54:28,900 --> 00:54:37,500
school and I really think in the
second year of the transition
867
00:54:37,500 --> 00:54:39,700
from the triple option, they're
going to have to lean on their
868
00:54:39,700 --> 00:54:44,000
defense more.
I mean to win more games they
869
00:54:44,008 --> 00:54:47,100
have to because that offense
isn't going to be there yet.
870
00:54:47,100 --> 00:54:52,300
I think it's as we've seen from
the past, going from an option,
871
00:54:52,300 --> 00:54:56,800
based offense more, whether it
be spread or whether it be a pro
872
00:54:56,800 --> 00:55:03,100
style, it takes minimum four
years tables, Bering Strait now
873
00:55:03,100 --> 00:55:09,600
behind about this The Georgia
Tech Yellow Jackets had no
874
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:14,500
coding changes.
Oh but is it a shock with the
875
00:55:14,500 --> 00:55:20,200
guy again with that transition
in his second year after 3:00
876
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,900
and 9:00?
I mean is that Shopkin?
877
00:55:23,300 --> 00:55:26,300
No because you don't have anyone
really taking the next step
878
00:55:26,300 --> 00:55:30,400
because they didn't do enough in
year one for guys to be able to
879
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:35,300
jump ship like that.
And also I think in Year One We
880
00:55:35,300 --> 00:55:38,000
haven't gotten to a point where
I think they've evaluated up to
881
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:42,200
see who owned that staff, isn't
quite cutting cutting mustard
882
00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:44,700
yet.
So, both things are kind of
883
00:55:44,700 --> 00:55:45,700
playing against them.
They are.
884
00:55:45,700 --> 00:55:48,100
So that's why you're not seeing
any sort of turnover because
885
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,100
they just didn't have enough
Talent across the board to
886
00:55:51,100 --> 00:55:54,400
really have guys that were
marketable to other teams.
887
00:55:54,900 --> 00:55:58,100
And they don't think they've
seen enough, especially with the
888
00:55:58,100 --> 00:56:00,800
fact that they're still turning
over the roster to tell whether
889
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:04,500
it's a coaching problem or a
player problem recruiting
890
00:56:04,700 --> 00:56:08,000
Problem or anything like that.
So, time will tell, I think we
891
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:13,000
might see more movement on that
front after this year, as you
892
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:14,900
get a class or two under your
belt.
893
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:21,200
And you start seeing As guys are
making more better plays on the
894
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:22,800
field.
Are you seeing some shortcomings
895
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,500
in terms of the others coaching
aspects?
896
00:56:26,100 --> 00:56:28,300
Yeah.
All right, let's go on up.
897
00:56:28,300 --> 00:56:33,300
Let's get Boston College done
here returning, seven players on
898
00:56:33,300 --> 00:56:39,100
all fronts non-defense, but
there is a really big hole on
899
00:56:39,100 --> 00:56:47,100
that offense now Braun giant,
huge, huge, huge hole and we're
900
00:56:47,100 --> 00:56:50,500
talking about a.j., Dylan,
Drafted by the Packers in the
901
00:56:50,500 --> 00:56:58,000
second round 1685 yards and 14
touchdowns in 2019, had another
902
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:01,800
195 receiving yards and a
touchdown in 2019.
903
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:06,300
So you know, always considered
more of a, you know, pounding
904
00:57:06,700 --> 00:57:09,100
between the tackles back.
But he definitely showed a
905
00:57:09,107 --> 00:57:12,700
little versatility last year and
I think that's what helped him
906
00:57:12,700 --> 00:57:14,400
get.
Drafted, as high as he did
907
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:21,800
three-time first-team, all-acc,
Third team, All-American in 2019
908
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:25,400
coming.
This is about as you know stack
909
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,300
as you can get at the running
back position.
910
00:57:27,300 --> 00:57:30,600
In terms of accolades,
especially for a team that
911
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:35,100
wasn't very good last year.
They beat us but they weren't
912
00:57:35,100 --> 00:57:39,000
very good.
We'll get to that later.
913
00:57:40,100 --> 00:57:43,400
That is also, you know, they
don't have Anthony Brown
914
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:45,600
anymore.
So he had 1,200 yards passing
915
00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,900
and non touchdowns through just
over 5.
916
00:57:49,100 --> 00:57:53,500
Games last year before getting
injured against Louisville and
917
00:57:53,500 --> 00:57:57,100
he decided to transfer away from
Boston College after the the
918
00:57:57,100 --> 00:58:01,200
change in regime.
So those are going to be the two
919
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:06,000
big things that they're missing
on offense and I think that's
920
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,800
going to be whether they can
replace those pieces.
921
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,600
Long term is going to be the
question as to whether whether
922
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:16,000
they can take another step or a
face are stuck at that 5 to 7
923
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,800
win window that we've kind of
seen the map.
924
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:22,500
The last several years.
Absolutely, and you mentioned
925
00:58:22,500 --> 00:58:25,600
Anthony Brown transferring.
He didn't take a step down to.
926
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,900
He actually went a step up into
your heat transferred to Oregon
927
00:58:30,100 --> 00:58:32,000
and Oregon losing Herbert
clearly.
928
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:35,300
He has potential opportunity to
play out there because, you
929
00:58:35,300 --> 00:58:38,100
know, the New Year's falling
looking for you and brother
930
00:58:38,100 --> 00:58:44,300
solid Collegiate quarterback and
again regime changes, you know,
931
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:47,800
if you can get out get you
sometimes you have to and for
932
00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:49,600
him he took a significant.
Grade.
933
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:54,700
Now what the new coaching staff
there isn't really working with
934
00:58:54,700 --> 00:59:03,100
is great recruiting classes,
2017, 6720 1871 20, 1964.
935
00:59:04,700 --> 00:59:08,800
But you know with the prior
regime that was there sometimes
936
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:11,800
stores didn't matter, they were
Finding Diamonds in the Rough.
937
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:13,900
Really good offensive and
defensive linemen.
938
00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:21,800
Anybody of these really Sub 60
recruiting classes that you feel
939
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:27,200
are got to be key to Boston.
College potentially getting back
940
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,800
to six wins under new regime or
even taking a step.
941
00:59:30,700 --> 00:59:32,600
Yeah, so like you were talking
about, I mean they've really
942
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:36,500
gone for more scheme fits and
things like that on their
943
00:59:36,500 --> 00:59:39,100
recruiting classes.
So I mean, obviously they wanted
944
00:59:39,100 --> 00:59:41,400
to get as High Caliber players
as they could but they were
945
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:45,100
definitely prioritizing those
scheme fits and the guy that
946
00:59:45,100 --> 00:59:47,000
really fits right into what they
were doing.
947
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,200
Previously, is the guy that's
Going to be stepping in, for AJ
948
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:52,200
Dillon this year.
And that's David Bailey.
949
00:59:52,800 --> 01:00:01,300
Another big bulldozing back.
Six 1240 had 844 yards, rushing
950
01:00:01,300 --> 01:00:05,600
and seven touchdowns last year
behind a guy that had almost
951
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:11,900
1700 yards rushing Like to run
the ball, they ran the ball a
952
01:00:11,900 --> 01:00:15,100
little bit.
So I mean they're going to look
953
01:00:15,100 --> 01:00:18,400
to him to be be the the primary
guy this year at the running
954
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:21,200
back position.
It sounds like what they're
955
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:25,000
going with is still going to be
a run first offense.
956
01:00:25,100 --> 01:00:30,400
I don't think they're going to
be Reinventing that part of the
957
01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:32,700
philosophy, but it's definitely
going to be a different system
958
01:00:32,700 --> 01:00:36,100
in terms of how they get that
done, another guy that we're
959
01:00:36,100 --> 01:00:39,600
going to look at as far as
Keeping that train rolling is
960
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:43,300
going to be Tyler, Vrabel.
He's, they're returning tackle,
961
01:00:43,300 --> 01:00:46,700
he's gonna have a potential to
be a high round draft pick in
962
01:00:46,700 --> 01:00:49,400
21.
They've got both their tackles
963
01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:51,800
coming back, but I think
variables got the little bit
964
01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:54,600
more of the higher ceiling of
the two.
965
01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:57,500
So that's the guy wanted to
Spotlight here.
966
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,500
Another gun that they're happy
to give back who it was injured
967
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:06,400
towards the end of the season.
Has Max Richardson, Thank you.
968
01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:10,200
Got banged up in the last couple
games of the season but he was
969
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:13,200
still all-acc second-team.
In 2019.
970
01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:17,000
Had 108 tackles 14 and a half
tackles for loss and three and a
971
01:01:17,008 --> 01:01:19,800
half sacks.
So again big contributor on
972
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:23,100
defense and he's he can't he
decided to come back for a
973
01:01:23,100 --> 01:01:27,200
senior year despite the regime
change because he felt like
974
01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:31,100
there was still some unfinished
business for them so that's
975
01:01:31,100 --> 01:01:33,500
going to be their theme is going
to be unfinished business.
976
01:01:35,700 --> 01:01:37,900
We'll see if we'll see, if they
will do something with that,
977
01:01:37,900 --> 01:01:42,700
but, yeah, they are returning
some other guys, as well.
978
01:01:42,700 --> 01:01:45,000
So that another big one on
offense is going to be Hunter
979
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,800
long.
He was a tight end for them.
980
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:53,900
Third team, all-acc 464 yards,
receiving a two touchdowns,
981
01:01:54,300 --> 01:01:56,300
which is pretty good numbers in
a run.
982
01:01:56,300 --> 01:01:59,000
First offense, especially for a
tight end.
983
01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:05,400
He actually led the team in
receiving yards while wow, So
984
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:11,300
definitely a very run first
oriented team and the last one
985
01:02:11,300 --> 01:02:14,400
is going to be Brandon
Sebastian.
986
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:18,600
So he started all 12 games had
to pick last year was kind of
987
01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,000
their lockdown guy.
He wasn't necessarily an elite
988
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,300
level but he was a guy that
could match up against the
989
01:02:23,300 --> 01:02:26,600
number one on another team and
you definitely push them and
990
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,200
give them a run for their money.
So he's going to look to maybe
991
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:30,900
take another step for them this
year.
992
01:02:31,900 --> 01:02:34,900
Yeah, first of all, Tyler
variable.
993
01:02:34,900 --> 01:02:39,200
That is the son of former New
England Patriots, current,
994
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:42,500
Tennessee, Titans head coach.
Mike Vrabel and we talk about
995
01:02:42,500 --> 01:02:45,800
Diamonds in the Rough.
He was like three star coming
996
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,600
out.
And just what you just
997
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,300
mentioned.
He has a potential to be a
998
01:02:51,300 --> 01:02:54,000
lottery pretty high draft pick
next year.
999
01:02:55,200 --> 01:03:00,000
David Bailey three-star, you
know out of Maryland, he has the
1000
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,700
build six foot and a half 225
pounds on.
1001
01:03:03,100 --> 01:03:06,300
Now, you know, you mentioned a
stat line last year behind Dylan
1002
01:03:06,300 --> 01:03:10,000
but now he's going to get the
bulk of the carries, his friends
1003
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:13,000
built.
Oh, you know, he kind of don't
1004
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,600
worry about it where when we
talked about a couple of the
1005
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:20,400
guys like for Louisville.
The last time there bill is
1006
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:22,700
like, can you take this
pounding?
1007
01:03:22,700 --> 01:03:26,100
You see this guy, you definitely
feel like you could now Brian
1008
01:03:26,100 --> 01:03:29,800
under a new regime.
They you know, there's more
1009
01:03:30,700 --> 01:03:33,800
transfers and stuff happened who
are some of the guys that emerge
1010
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:38,000
in potentially a keep them as a
bold team potentially, catapult
1011
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:41,000
them to a higher to a better
record next year.
1012
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:45,700
So the big game is going to be
filled your Kovac the transfer
1013
01:03:45,700 --> 01:03:49,000
from Notre Dame quarterback.
Set behind the e-book.
1014
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:55,000
Now he's going to be playing
quarterback for Boston College.
1015
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:58,300
The question here is going to be
is he going to get the waiver to
1016
01:03:58,308 --> 01:04:00,400
play in 2020?
Hmm.
1017
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,800
He will require a label to be to
become eligible for 2020 so
1018
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:08,400
that's going to be big in terms
of their success.
1019
01:04:08,900 --> 01:04:11,700
But if he does get that waiver,
he's going to be a plug-and-play
1020
01:04:11,900 --> 01:04:16,300
starts with them, pivoting off
of that.
1021
01:04:16,300 --> 01:04:19,900
If that don't go their way,
Dennis Purcell.
1022
01:04:19,900 --> 01:04:23,500
Who was the quarterback for the
rest of the season last year?
1023
01:04:24,700 --> 01:04:28,700
After Anthony Brown, went down,
is probably going to be the guy
1024
01:04:28,700 --> 01:04:30,900
that's going to step into that
quarterback role again.
1025
01:04:30,900 --> 01:04:36,400
This year played in 12 games and
started, six head 896 yards
1026
01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:40,400
passing and 9 touchdowns the
question is going to be is, you
1027
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:43,800
know, having a full Camp is that
going to be enough for him to be
1028
01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:45,800
able to step in that role and do
a little bit more than he did
1029
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:50,400
last year and more.
And unfortunate situation
1030
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:54,500
closing out the year.
And then we got two other guys
1031
01:04:54,500 --> 01:04:59,900
that are going to be pretty big
in terms of whether or not BC
1032
01:04:59,900 --> 01:05:02,300
has some success in the big ones
going to be as Kobe, why he's
1033
01:05:02,300 --> 01:05:04,800
the wide receiver.
Yeah, actually.
1034
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:08,900
Initially entered the transfer
portal when the coaching change
1035
01:05:08,900 --> 01:05:12,300
was coming through there.
But decided to return to Boston,
1036
01:05:12,300 --> 01:05:14,900
College, and kind of see how
things go.
1037
01:05:16,100 --> 01:05:18,500
He had 434.
Yards, receiving and five
1038
01:05:18,500 --> 01:05:22,200
touchdowns in 2019.
Seems kind of the the number to
1039
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:25,700
Target in the offense.
Again, those low numbers might
1040
01:05:25,700 --> 01:05:28,800
go up depending on what happens
with with the quarterback
1041
01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:34,200
position.
So we'll see and then, Isaiah
1042
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:37,500
McDuffie is the other one.
He was trending towards being a
1043
01:05:37,500 --> 01:05:42,500
playmaker before missing most of
the 2019 season with an injury,
1044
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,100
he's going to be very key in
terms of whether or not, they
1045
01:05:46,100 --> 01:05:49,000
can bounce back.
And have some success this year.
1046
01:05:50,100 --> 01:05:54,000
Yeah, well your coverage is
Deke.
1047
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:57,300
It's not even a question if he
can get his waiver or not.
1048
01:05:57,300 --> 01:06:01,000
But again being in the first
year of a new regime, it doesn't
1049
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,600
hurt if he doesn't get it,
because he'll be there next year
1050
01:06:03,900 --> 01:06:07,900
while he was a four-star, top
120 profit.
1051
01:06:07,900 --> 01:06:11,000
When he came out in 2018, will
definitely get for recruiting
1052
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:14,400
presentable.
Then having some kind of a
1053
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:19,300
program like the Blue Bloods and
disrupted a you go there.
1054
01:06:19,300 --> 01:06:21,900
You don't get The job now.
Bushkin, trench.
1055
01:06:21,900 --> 01:06:26,200
Well, I need to go somewhere
else to find so I think that's
1056
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:30,300
the key now.
Run clearly there were a ton of
1057
01:06:30,300 --> 01:06:33,000
changes.
The beastly they fired Steve
1058
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:37,500
Adagio after the victims with
cooler and we hired Warpath lie
1059
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:43,300
haffley comes from Ohio State.
He was only there one season as
1060
01:06:43,300 --> 01:06:47,700
a defensive coordinator prior to
that, he had spent six seasons
1061
01:06:47,700 --> 01:06:51,500
and secondary coach in the NFL
for the for Honor the Browns and
1062
01:06:51,500 --> 01:06:54,500
the buck.
When he had collegiately coach
1063
01:06:54,500 --> 01:06:58,700
since 2001 before that including
at Pitt and Rutger, so kind of
1064
01:06:58,700 --> 01:07:05,800
up in that multiple territory,
couple of his three hires.
1065
01:07:06,300 --> 01:07:10,500
The first is Frank.
Cignetti Nettie had been leaked
1066
01:07:10,500 --> 01:07:14,900
from 2012 to 2018 primarily as a
quarterbacks coach units in one
1067
01:07:14,900 --> 01:07:17,600
season.
In 2015, is the Rams offensive
1068
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:21,000
coordinator last time.
He Orion will, last time you
1069
01:07:21,008 --> 01:07:25,400
coach was 2018 with the Packers.
Now, he did have some Collegiate
1070
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:30,600
styles on that, the most notable
for Virginia Tech would be when
1071
01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:35,400
he was the offensive coordinator
at UNC in 2006.
1072
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:41,500
Where we be 135 10 Again.
NFL guy, you're looking at a
1073
01:07:41,508 --> 01:07:45,200
pro-style offense, Rove.
Not much of a transition.
1074
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:49,700
Probably for, you know, the
offense in a lot of ways.
1075
01:07:49,900 --> 01:07:55,300
Um, now his experiences, he is
the new defensive coordinator.
1076
01:07:55,300 --> 01:08:01,000
This is his fourth defense of
coordinating job, at any level
1077
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:08,200
arm football.
Wow, we do for what T mokuba.
1078
01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:13,600
He had, he done so much
basically on back and coaching
1079
01:08:13,900 --> 01:08:17,100
most notably 2018 with
Mississippi State, under Joe
1080
01:08:17,100 --> 01:08:19,500
Moorhead.
And then he was in the league
1081
01:08:19,500 --> 01:08:23,200
with the jingles in 2019.
He had also spent some time with
1082
01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:28,000
halfway with you as with the
49ers so he has a connection
1083
01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:33,100
there but overall like you know
this is pretty big but again
1084
01:08:33,100 --> 01:08:35,899
you've got a head coach has a
higher defensive coordinator.
1085
01:08:36,500 --> 01:08:40,300
How much is bringing some like
cignetti who has done it
1086
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:44,100
numerous times where it's just
like, listen you focus on there.
1087
01:08:44,100 --> 01:08:49,300
I'm going to hop between get
used to what he needs to do.
1088
01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:53,800
Being and all this stuff, maybe
it should be a third of a meter
1089
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:59,800
long.
With a plea but we'll save the.
1090
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:03,600
One thing he will do is he did
retain Rich, canal through the
1091
01:09:03,899 --> 01:09:07,300
waters, even kicked under 1000.
Yo while he did so with an
1092
01:09:07,300 --> 01:09:11,899
interim head coach in the bowl
game after we value is Karan and
1093
01:09:11,899 --> 01:09:13,100
now he's going to be a running
back.
1094
01:09:13,100 --> 01:09:15,800
Coach had that on the staff in
2016?
1095
01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:18,800
We gots a good move.
You keep a whole nother from the
1096
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,300
prior regime.
Again, it's surprising that
1097
01:09:21,300 --> 01:09:25,800
really, it wasn't bad.
So it's one of the things NG
1098
01:09:25,808 --> 01:09:29,800
we're probably helps.
We staff get to know the guys
1099
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:31,899
quicker and all that.
I like it.
1100
01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:36,100
But I mean you kind of see and
you see, it's A Change.
1101
01:09:36,100 --> 01:09:37,200
Would you be shocked?
What they want?
1102
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:42,500
666 again, run?
No, not at all 30.
1103
01:09:42,500 --> 01:09:44,000
Yeah.
All right.
1104
01:09:44,100 --> 01:09:52,399
Well, Brian last but not least.
All right, the Miami Hurricane
1105
01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:57,100
heard that song today?
Well If you from back in the day
1106
01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:03,900
returning, seven offensive
starters for defensive starters,
1107
01:10:03,900 --> 01:10:07,200
they definitely were a really
good defensive team last year
1108
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:09,600
and have a feeling Brian.
When you go through this key
1109
01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:14,100
departures, we might have a few
sense of players.
1110
01:10:14,100 --> 01:10:17,500
But who are some of the key guys
that are gone from Miami's
1111
01:10:17,500 --> 01:10:19,700
roster this year?
All right, so we're going to
1112
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:23,500
kind of be the highlights going
to be skill position, players
1113
01:10:23,500 --> 01:10:27,000
and defensive players.
That's what they lost.
1114
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:30,300
So the big one is one of the big
ones is going to be KJ, Osborne
1115
01:10:31,300 --> 01:10:34,600
wide receiver, had 50 catches
and 547 yards.
1116
01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:38,300
Last season, he actually got
picked in the fifth round by
1117
01:10:38,300 --> 01:10:40,800
Minnesota.
So you got a draft pick right
1118
01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:45,000
out the gate here.
Definitely showed more potential
1119
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:48,400
than his stats, she was, but a
lot of that had to do with the
1120
01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:52,200
fact that there was inconsistent
quarterback, play in horrid
1121
01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:54,600
offensive line play from Miami
last year.
1122
01:10:57,000 --> 01:11:01,600
So that's the big thing there.
Another one, we got a wide
1123
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,600
receiver, Jeff, Thomas
Speedster.
1124
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:07,400
Kind of more of a down.
The field threat he was picked
1125
01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:13,500
up by the New England Patriots
as an undrafted free agent so
1126
01:11:13,500 --> 01:11:17,100
but you two key wide receivers
are gone for them and I'll go
1127
01:11:17,100 --> 01:11:20,400
ahead and highlight the other
skill position player on offense
1128
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:24,600
and that's deejay Dallas.
Running back for them last year.
1129
01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:28,800
Got picked by the Seahawks The
fourth round again, not
1130
01:11:29,300 --> 01:11:33,000
impressive numbers, good
numbers, not great numbers, 693
1131
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,500
yards, rushing and eight
touchdowns and 2019.
1132
01:11:36,100 --> 01:11:39,600
But again he was playing behind
pretty bad offensive line last
1133
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:42,900
season.
And so that that's that's the
1134
01:11:42,900 --> 01:11:46,000
big thing that they're going to
look to improve this year.
1135
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,600
I think is trying to shore up
that Alden to live but those are
1136
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:51,900
the skill position guys they're
little they're losing on the
1137
01:11:51,900 --> 01:11:55,900
defensive side of the ball.
Three big time play.
1138
01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:58,100
Yours are the guys I'm going to
highlight here that the first
1139
01:11:58,100 --> 01:12:01,600
one being Jonathan Garvin
defensive end and outside.
1140
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:04,300
Linebacker drafting the seventh
round by the Packers.
1141
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:10,000
He did see his playing time
diminish at the end of 2019 but
1142
01:12:10,500 --> 01:12:13,700
still tallied, some good numbers
and had some big plays but
1143
01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:17,800
There's a reason for that, that
we're going to get to later.
1144
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:22,300
Oh yeah.
But The next guy went to
1145
01:12:22,300 --> 01:12:24,600
highlight is going to be trajan
Brandy's.
1146
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:30,400
All ACC honorable mention
corner, he did play corner and
1147
01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:33,100
safety while I was at Miami, but
finished his career as a corner
1148
01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:35,900
and was actually picked up by
the Steelers as an undrafted
1149
01:12:35,900 --> 01:12:38,600
free agent.
So NFL caliber Talent there that
1150
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:42,000
they're missing on that side of
the ball this year and the last
1151
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:44,500
guy, big one here, Shaq
quarterman.
1152
01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:48,000
Oh yeah, fourth-round draft pick
by the Jags.
1153
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:52,900
Four-year starter at linebacker
for Them to time first team,
1154
01:12:52,900 --> 01:12:58,100
all-acc hundred seven tackles
and 15 tackles for loss in 2019.
1155
01:12:59,300 --> 01:13:01,900
Oh yeah, man.
I mean, you start mentioning
1156
01:13:01,900 --> 01:13:06,500
those defensive players and
again that offense last year was
1157
01:13:07,300 --> 01:13:09,800
not a good offense that defense
was good.
1158
01:13:09,900 --> 01:13:15,300
So we send that much talent.
Where do they finished this
1159
01:13:15,300 --> 01:13:16,100
year?
Who knows?
1160
01:13:16,100 --> 01:13:21,200
Now clearly, it's Miami, they
always recruit well, 2017 or 12
1161
01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:26,700
Class of 2018 a top-10 class 20
1927, green chlorophyll, a lot
1162
01:13:26,700 --> 01:13:32,400
of talents still there with them
but by and they've got a lot to
1163
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:36,000
replace especially on defense.
And again, some very productive
1164
01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:38,800
Jeff Thomas.
Even though he didn't produce
1165
01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:43,200
that, dude has speed, if nothing
else, it major.
1166
01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:46,800
Safeties play further back off
the line which could open things
1167
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:49,000
up.
But who are some of the guys
1168
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:52,600
coming back?
So I'll start with the first one
1169
01:13:52,600 --> 01:13:56,700
and there's again I said there
was a reason why Jonathan Garvin
1170
01:13:56,700 --> 01:14:00,200
saw some of his snap count go
down in 2019.
1171
01:14:00,700 --> 01:14:05,200
Well the reason for that is that
Gregory Rousseau became debt
1172
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:10,400
dude.
So redshirt freshman did he
1173
01:14:10,407 --> 01:14:12,100
would start the he wasn't a
starter at the beginning the
1174
01:14:12,100 --> 01:14:16,900
season but just blast on the
scene in 2019 and finished with
1175
01:14:16,900 --> 01:14:23,200
15 and a half sacks.
As a as a redshirt freshman that
1176
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:26,700
was second in the country in
terms of total sex only behind
1177
01:14:26,700 --> 01:14:32,600
the chase young, woo, baby
number three, picking the grass.
1178
01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:39,400
Yeah no big deal at all there.
And he was also being ACC
1179
01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:42,200
Defensive Rookie of the Year for
for those numbers.
1180
01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:46,400
So if there's any Improvement by
this guy, you better look at the
1181
01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:49,900
hell out because that's going to
be a monster too.
1182
01:14:50,100 --> 01:14:54,400
To contain on defense there
another key defensive guy that
1183
01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:56,800
got coming back is going to be
DJ IV.
1184
01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:00,400
He actually led the team in
picks at quarterback last year
1185
01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:03,600
with three and he's going to be
looking to move into more of
1186
01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:05,800
that Alpha Dog in the secondary
role.
1187
01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:12,300
Now the band he's departed in
the draft there and staying on
1188
01:15:12,300 --> 01:15:17,000
the defensive side of the ball
Durbin Hall, Junior, safety.
1189
01:15:17,500 --> 01:15:19,900
He had sixty six tackles last
year.
1190
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,400
Force from one interception
really known as kind of an in
1191
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:26,900
the Box guy, really good tackler
in the open field.
1192
01:15:27,500 --> 01:15:31,500
He's going to be key for their
that defense to really continue
1193
01:15:31,500 --> 01:15:35,800
their trajectory and stay at the
top of their game because it's
1194
01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:37,800
going to be interesting to see
what happens on the offensive
1195
01:15:37,800 --> 01:15:41,200
side of the ball.
Especially with offensive line
1196
01:15:41,200 --> 01:15:44,800
but in terms of what they've got
coming back there, the big one
1197
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:49,000
is navon Donaldson senior.
He's their guard coming back.
1198
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:55,800
Really Only rock solid starter
all season last year and he's
1199
01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:58,700
going to be key to get that
offensive going.
1200
01:15:58,700 --> 01:16:00,700
Especially the fact that they've
got a new quarterback, that's
1201
01:16:00,700 --> 01:16:03,200
going to be playing this year
and they got to keep him healthy
1202
01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:06,900
because he's going to be running
the ball a lot more than what
1203
01:16:06,900 --> 01:16:11,900
they were doing last year.
Yeah, you mentioned.
1204
01:16:11,900 --> 01:16:16,200
It's kind of hairy thing when
you're talking about water back,
1205
01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:20,900
some new system which I'll touch
on later but you have one
1206
01:16:21,300 --> 01:16:27,200
startling offense in one point
you know, no.
1207
01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:32,600
In Donaldson flooding the zone
right hop on a plane Hometown
1208
01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:39,600
guy so um, you know but you
already know you already.
1209
01:16:39,700 --> 01:16:42,900
Gotta lay the groundwork for
weird who is got to be the
1210
01:16:42,900 --> 01:16:46,300
emerging Talent, you know, the
guy that has to step up and
1211
01:16:46,300 --> 01:16:49,700
they're going to have any
success on offense other than
1212
01:16:49,700 --> 01:16:53,100
the offensive line is going to
be their new quarterback, their
1213
01:16:53,100 --> 01:16:57,800
King transfer from Houston.
He was a complete Force there
1214
01:16:58,300 --> 01:17:03,300
while he was in Houston, 4925
yards passing and 50 touchdowns
1215
01:17:03,300 --> 01:17:09,600
against 10 picks ran for another
14, 21 and 28 touchdowns 34
1216
01:17:09,700 --> 01:17:11,500
Game.
So if you do the math, there
1217
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:14,100
you're looking at some pretty
damn good numbers.
1218
01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:19,900
We have quarterback position and
that's going to be big for Miami
1219
01:17:19,900 --> 01:17:22,800
because again, their offense was
pretty atrocious last year.
1220
01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:25,900
Again, inconsistent quarterback
play.
1221
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:28,100
Some of that was on the
offensive line and some of that
1222
01:17:28,100 --> 01:17:31,000
was just inconsistent play
across the board.
1223
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:35,900
So he's going to be the key for
that offense and to help out
1224
01:17:35,900 --> 01:17:39,500
there, they're going to need a
guy like Zion Nelson there left.
1225
01:17:39,700 --> 01:17:43,200
Tackle to take another step.
Now this is a guy that's kind of
1226
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:47,600
thrown to the Wolves last year.
True freshman.
1227
01:17:47,900 --> 01:17:53,600
Hey, you're going to be starting
left tackle, have fun, and there
1228
01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:56,600
were some Growing Pains start
the season, but he kind of close
1229
01:17:56,600 --> 01:18:01,000
things out pretty well.
So, you know, numbers wise, in
1230
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:04,400
terms of how we were great
offensive line, not good in
1231
01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:08,800
terms of average score but had
some good numbers in terms of
1232
01:18:08,808 --> 01:18:11,300
how you would grade.
As the season closed out there.
1233
01:18:12,100 --> 01:18:16,200
So those are the big guys.
They're also on the offensive
1234
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:21,900
side, Cameron Harris.
He's going to be looking to be
1235
01:18:21,900 --> 01:18:24,000
kind of that one, a running
back.
1236
01:18:24,300 --> 01:18:27,400
They're probably going to have a
shared backfield, but he's going
1237
01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:31,700
to be the one, a guy, he's going
to get some help because King is
1238
01:18:31,700 --> 01:18:35,600
going to be carrying the ball a
lot more than they have in the
1239
01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:37,500
past.
So you're going to get a little
1240
01:18:37,500 --> 01:18:39,200
bit of help there because
there's going to be some
1241
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:41,400
options.
Elements there and threat for
1242
01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:43,500
the quarterback to take off.
So I think he's going to have a
1243
01:18:43,500 --> 01:18:47,100
little bit of a of a better Ally
just by default even if the
1244
01:18:47,100 --> 01:18:49,300
offensive line isn't
significantly improved.
1245
01:18:49,900 --> 01:18:53,200
And let's go to the the
defensive side of the ball.
1246
01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:59,400
And this one's going to sting
guys, Quincy Roche transfer from
1247
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:05,000
Temple.
He was hours from being a hokie
1248
01:19:05,300 --> 01:19:11,600
hours, Dan missions.
I think I mean I think it
1249
01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:15,300
missions kind of screwed the
pooch again but I think there
1250
01:19:15,308 --> 01:19:18,100
was also a big lack of
communication there as well.
1251
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:23,300
So I'm not going to place blame
on the kid.
1252
01:19:23,300 --> 01:19:27,000
It is what it is but he was ours
from becoming a hokey and then
1253
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:28,900
wasn't.
So it is what it is.
1254
01:19:28,900 --> 01:19:31,300
But he's going to be a big-time
contributor on that defense of
1255
01:19:31,300 --> 01:19:36,200
wind and is going to really be
looked at to kind of step in and
1256
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:39,900
take over, you know, some of the
role opposite Gregory.
1257
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:45,200
Or so, but that's going to be a
really hard to handle two-headed
1258
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:48,600
monster at defensive in there.
Yeah, absolutely.
1259
01:19:49,900 --> 01:19:53,100
The Nelson kid getting thrown
into the fire as a freshman.
1260
01:19:53,100 --> 01:19:56,200
Well, that happens sometimes.
Usually don't see it happen when
1261
01:19:56,200 --> 01:20:01,500
team prepares as well as Miami
and in the Eric King, well he
1262
01:20:01,500 --> 01:20:04,500
made his choice and run with
what they happen in the coaching
1263
01:20:04,500 --> 01:20:06,200
staff.
It kind of all mates, weren't
1264
01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:09,000
you know, first of all, Manny
Diaz has been there.
1265
01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:12,200
One season brought On the hot
seat, he was one of the coaches
1266
01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:16,300
Dennis without about today as
he's got to get his shit in
1267
01:20:16,300 --> 01:20:17,500
order.
If he can fired.
1268
01:20:17,500 --> 01:20:20,600
After this year, he already
jumped and went ahead and said,
1269
01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:22,800
we're changing things
completely.
1270
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:27,200
So we fight any nosed any higher
rental, flash, red.
1271
01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:30,300
And lastly coming out of SMU
where he was under Sunny Dykes.
1272
01:20:30,300 --> 01:20:32,600
That's Airaid 101.
Oh yeah.
1273
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:37,000
Along with that clearly they
made, you know, changes to the
1274
01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:39,900
offensive line Garvin Justice
can observe.
1275
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:44,300
Um, UNLV guy actually have been
a pretty successful D2 head
1276
01:20:44,300 --> 01:20:47,600
coach at Concord, but that
wasn't the last change they
1277
01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:51,600
made.
They didn't made their wide
1278
01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:54,600
receivers coach, Taylor start on
the field who could job at Penn
1279
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:58,800
State.
Now, Rob Likens, who is under
1280
01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:03,000
her mother bird, ASU, he comes
over, he was actually being
1281
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:05,300
offensive coordinators
quarterback coach there.
1282
01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:11,600
Now, again, Likens comes from
that Sonny, Tree where he was
1283
01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:13,700
with him at Cal and Louisiana
Tech.
1284
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:17,700
So they're going air raid.
Now, I'm going to ask you the
1285
01:21:17,700 --> 01:21:21,000
crime.
Danny knows was a pro-style
1286
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:25,600
coordinator.
The old offensive line code
1287
01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:27,900
clearly, polymorpha proust
offensive line kit.
1288
01:21:28,100 --> 01:21:30,500
Then they're going 18, dormant
air raid.
1289
01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:35,000
You kind of had to deal with
this transitioning from high
1290
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:40,600
school to college.
Tell me, is it going to be
1291
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:43,900
easier or is the are Kings going
to run for his life for them to
1292
01:21:43,900 --> 01:21:47,100
win games?
I think there's going to be some
1293
01:21:47,100 --> 01:21:50,200
of that.
The biggest jump is going to be
1294
01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:56,300
a complete change in terminology
and verbiage for offensive line
1295
01:21:56,300 --> 01:22:00,900
calls Playbook everything.
So that's going to be the
1296
01:22:00,900 --> 01:22:04,400
biggest thing for, you know,
five to seven guys, to pick up
1297
01:22:04,900 --> 01:22:07,700
and gel, especially with the
covid situation.
1298
01:22:07,700 --> 01:22:10,300
We're dealing with where they've
had some limited offseason to
1299
01:22:10,300 --> 01:22:14,400
work on those things and kind of
get those, some of those mental
1300
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:18,600
reps and all the Spring reps in
place so that's going to be key.
1301
01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:22,100
And again changing the
philosophy you know there's some
1302
01:22:22,100 --> 01:22:26,100
guys that are more built to you
put their hand in the dirt and
1303
01:22:26,100 --> 01:22:30,400
just Mall guys over and this is
going to be a little bit of a
1304
01:22:30,500 --> 01:22:36,400
more finesse type offense.
It's not something that's going
1305
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:38,700
to be a smooth transition for
everybody.
1306
01:22:38,700 --> 01:22:44,300
I think anybody that has pretty
decent past set and has had some
1307
01:22:44,300 --> 01:22:48,100
experience in these Is spread
type offense is probably a high
1308
01:22:48,100 --> 01:22:52,600
school level which is primarily
running spread now probably
1309
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:55,600
won't have his heart of a
transition as, as some other
1310
01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:59,900
guys, but it's going to be a
think a learning curve for them
1311
01:22:59,900 --> 01:23:03,000
and it might take them a few
games to really see that
1312
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,000
offensive line gel if it ever
does.
1313
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:08,600
Got your man.
Well, we shall see.
1314
01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:12,400
It's just kind of funny Diaz is
on the hot seat anymore.
1315
01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:17,200
Looks saves his job because he
have to win the coastal.
1316
01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:19,800
Does he have to win 10 games?
Even if he doesn't win the
1317
01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:24,200
coastal, or is it, you know,
marginal Improvement?
1318
01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:28,000
Because now he can lie say,
listen, we're trying to change
1319
01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:30,400
the culture.
Often people here, from what
1320
01:23:30,400 --> 01:23:35,100
we've done for you supposed,
I'll go are ready Fred, you know
1321
01:23:35,100 --> 01:23:38,700
it's It's just his thing.
Say, maybe I can get myself to
1322
01:23:38,700 --> 01:23:41,100
more years.
If I say, hey, working offensive
1323
01:23:41,100 --> 01:23:43,300
philosophy.
You gotta give me a few years
1324
01:23:43,700 --> 01:23:47,700
before I can turn it up.
Yeah, I think that, you know,
1325
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:50,800
this is a case of good
recruiting working against him
1326
01:23:51,400 --> 01:23:55,300
because when you have good
recruits and you're still only
1327
01:23:55,300 --> 01:23:58,000
winning, you know, six to eight
games.
1328
01:23:58,600 --> 01:24:01,100
Hmm.
You know, people start asking a
1329
01:24:01,108 --> 01:24:05,100
lot more questions.
True, what are you doing
1330
01:24:05,100 --> 01:24:06,300
tonight?
Translate this.
1331
01:24:06,500 --> 01:24:13,000
To the field.
I think you probably know I'm
1332
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:15,700
not, I'm no, Miami apologist by
any means, but I think he was
1333
01:24:15,700 --> 01:24:19,400
probably raked over the coals, a
little harder than he should be
1334
01:24:19,400 --> 01:24:22,300
in year one.
Especially following the caliber
1335
01:24:22,300 --> 01:24:28,000
of Coach, he was following at
the same time, You know, when
1336
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:30,000
you've got talent you got to,
you got to put out some
1337
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:35,200
something better than six wins
and they had the talent and it
1338
01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:38,900
just it just never quite gentle
the way they wanted to but I
1339
01:24:38,900 --> 01:24:42,600
think going are rate is going to
help them on several fronts.
1340
01:24:43,500 --> 01:24:48,500
One air raid takes out some of
the stress on the offensive
1341
01:24:48,500 --> 01:24:51,000
line.
The ball is getting snapped and
1342
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:54,200
it's getting out of the
quarterbacks hands quicker and
1343
01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:57,000
The Playmakers are responsible
for getting the yards after the
1344
01:24:57,000 --> 01:24:58,100
catch.
Each and getting the ball
1345
01:24:58,100 --> 01:25:00,900
downfield.
So that's going to take some
1346
01:25:00,900 --> 01:25:04,700
pressure off the offensive line,
you're probably see more Zone
1347
01:25:04,700 --> 01:25:11,100
type blocking schemes versus
manhole man or or Gap style
1348
01:25:11,100 --> 01:25:16,100
coverage got style protections.
So it'll be interesting to see
1349
01:25:16,500 --> 01:25:19,100
how they, how they go with that.
But yeah.
1350
01:25:19,100 --> 01:25:22,100
Usually with those are Aid
systems, it's a zone or some
1351
01:25:22,100 --> 01:25:26,200
sort of slide protection.
They're only going head-on hat
1352
01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:28,100
for five and seven.
Drops anything.
1353
01:25:28,100 --> 01:25:31,600
That's the three-step.
They're just Taking a gap or
1354
01:25:31,608 --> 01:25:34,600
taking an area and trying to
stop the guy before the ball
1355
01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:36,700
gets out.
Yeah, man.
1356
01:25:37,900 --> 01:25:41,100
All right.
So that closes the capital teams
1357
01:25:41,500 --> 01:25:45,800
but we'll be protecting the
language here from the more you
1358
01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:51,100
all these four opponent Based on
the time of year, we play on the
1359
01:25:51,100 --> 01:25:57,000
makes you mad - oh man, most
nervous.
1360
01:25:58,700 --> 01:26:00,400
I'm going to have to go with
Miami.
1361
01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:05,000
Just because of having king of
quarterback and the fact that
1362
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:08,200
they are a good defense and I
think they're going to be kind
1363
01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:12,700
of still in that same same level
just because of the guys they've
1364
01:26:12,700 --> 01:26:16,100
got coming back and some of the
freshmen that we saw making some
1365
01:26:16,100 --> 01:26:21,200
big moves last year.
So you know, they always are a
1366
01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:26,600
team that with the Rivalry.
It can go either way and some of
1367
01:26:26,608 --> 01:26:28,300
the unknown factor gives me a
little bit.
1368
01:26:28,400 --> 01:26:32,000
Pause, but I think if if they're
the same Miami, we've seen the
1369
01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:34,500
last few years.
I don't, I don't think they're
1370
01:26:34,500 --> 01:26:37,700
going to be as much of a
problem, but that unknown factor
1371
01:26:37,700 --> 01:26:41,000
has just given me some pause.
Yeah, I'm with you.
1372
01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:43,600
I think Miami to is the one
we're worried about mom.
1373
01:26:43,600 --> 01:26:46,100
Will you be careful?
You don't get them early.
1374
01:26:46,100 --> 01:26:49,900
I mean, they are the other 11th
game of 12 in the schedule.
1375
01:26:49,900 --> 01:26:54,500
So if they do start yelling, you
have the talent they do, have to
1376
01:26:54,500 --> 01:26:57,600
come with rain.
But you know that the half full
1377
01:26:57,600 --> 01:27:03,500
of for full Lane, you know, the
thing with of an important
1378
01:27:04,400 --> 01:27:07,500
thing.
But I'm with you on Miami, man
1379
01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:11,700
prize, is there anything else we
need to Hit anything break while
1380
01:27:11,700 --> 01:27:15,000
we were sitting here recording
on the one with Paloma she, no,
1381
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:17,800
I didn't see anything.
Come through buddy.
1382
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:21,200
Alright.
So that is going to wrap up this
1383
01:27:21,200 --> 01:27:24,200

My name is Curtis Wilson.
I'm right Sigler.

How's it going, buddy, buddy?
One of these click Keys clink.
4
00:01:00,700 --> 00:01:04,800
He's okay.
Son, Crush, southern peach here
5
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,400

6
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,900
Little Hardy with single.
Oh, and look at us supporting
7
00:01:10,900 --> 00:01:17,400
the r-va breweries.
We go from, you got a vacation
8
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:19,500
this weekend, buddy.
How was the lake?
9
00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:25,300
Yeah, I had headed down to bugs,
I'll incur Lake Area out of the
10
00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:27,300
cabin with some, with some
neighbors.
11
00:01:27,900 --> 00:01:32,100
Little fishing.
It a little little, this little
12
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:35,400
that caught a few caught a few
very nice.
13
00:01:35,700 --> 00:01:38,600
I caught the most, I didn't kill
catch the biggest but I kept
14
00:01:40,700 --> 00:01:42,700
going for quantity, not quality.
Quality here.
15
00:01:43,700 --> 00:01:47,000
Yes, when it comes to fish.
Yes, quantity over quality.
16
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,900
You can catch the nice prize
best, but that feeds one person
17
00:01:50,900 --> 00:01:53,200
you catch 10.
You're feeding the entire
18
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:54,700
family.
There we go.
19
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,100
There we go.
Thank you buddy.
20
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:05,000
Well, we were going to try to go
down and see some family on
21
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Friday but on Wednesday night,
my wonderful wife gets this
22
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,400
email from her school.
You must have your rooms cleaned
23
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,800

Huh.
24
00:02:15,900 --> 00:02:19,600
So it's kind of like, she's
like, when can you get up?
25
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,600
I'm like, well, I'm off Friday.
So let's just go on.
26
00:02:22,700 --> 00:02:25,400
Tell the folks, hey, can't come
down.
27
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,400
Sorry, we got to get this done.
Clearly because she does not
28
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,600
want, all her stuff going into a
storage trailer, so that was
29
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,400
pretty much all day.
Friday, wife's family came over
30
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,400
shared a grilled, some burgers,
some Wuhan hot dogs.
31
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:46,800
Bloody that like massive hot
dogs.
32
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:53,300
Had some drinks, just chilled.
And from our house watch
33
00:02:53,300 --> 00:02:55,900
fireworks on two streets over
from us and over in another
34
00:02:55,900 --> 00:02:57,700
neighborhood over.
So don't even have to leave the
35
00:02:57,700 --> 00:03:02,700
crib as a good.
Nice somewhat relaxing weekend.
36
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,600
Yeah, we were to catch some
fireworks.
37
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,100
They were shooting them off a
couple of boats.
38
00:03:06,700 --> 00:03:15,100
All right.
Your cabin watching fireworks.
39
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,900
That's that's good, man.
I mean it's always nice to see
40
00:03:18,900 --> 00:03:20,300
it.
It's the cool part is where
41
00:03:20,300 --> 00:03:23,700
Jack's bedroom is at the house.
He literally has this purpose.
42
00:03:23,700 --> 00:03:27,000
He's literally like, they are,
he could see the ones in the
43
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:28,700
neighborhood here.
He could see the ones in the
44
00:03:28,700 --> 00:03:30,800
other neighborhoods, so he was
like back and forth between the
45
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:35,700
Windows, like he was pumped on
on a Saturday late, Saturday
46
00:03:35,700 --> 00:03:37,200
night.
So, yeah.
47
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,100
Well folks, I hope your fourth
was great, too.
48
00:03:42,300 --> 00:03:47,300
Hope you had Had plenty of food
adult beverages and a good time,
49
00:03:47,300 --> 00:03:51,600
whatever you did.
But today, we're going to be
50
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:58,000
taking an in-depth look At
protecting Lane Stadium, we're
51
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,700
going to be looking at the four
themes that visit Lane this
52
00:04:01,700 --> 00:04:06,700
season.
So before we jump into all that
53
00:04:06,700 --> 00:04:10,600
though, there has been a lot of
news since the last time we were
54
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:17,100
on here and the biggest was this
weekend while my partner in
55
00:04:17,100 --> 00:04:21,000
crime, here had no cell service
is down at the lake.
56
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:33,100
We got some Yes sir DJ Harvey,
the 4 Star Quarterback out of
57
00:04:33,108 --> 00:04:41,100
Sierra, Canyon, High School in
California commits and came
58
00:04:41,100 --> 00:04:44,700
sound of out of nowhere.
Just all of a sudden people were
59
00:04:44,700 --> 00:04:48,700
like, he pulled it up and it was
like, I'm an ounce on the 4th
60
00:04:48,700 --> 00:04:53,300
and it's like what we'll wait a
second favorite and like, To
61
00:04:53,308 --> 00:04:56,700
come to Tech, but he initially,
if you remember, Brian, he's
62
00:04:56,700 --> 00:05:00,600
going to announce in September,
like we just did Penn State.
63
00:05:00,900 --> 00:05:05,200
We all feel good about that but
then this happens and now let me
64
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:10,000
ask you because you kind of came
into it a little late when you
65
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,800
saw it.
What was your first reaction?
66
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,900
So, I went down to the lake.
I think I left.
67
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:23,000
It was like I was also went to
my parents on Thursday and then
68
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,400
stay.
There, Friday, night and early
69
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,400
Saturday morning.
We headed to the lake.
70
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,900
So I was without cell phone
service, being able to text call
71
00:05:31,900 --> 00:05:38,700
anything for 36 hours.
And the only reason I knew about
72
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:44,300
it is because I made a run to
McDonald's to get some some
73
00:05:44,300 --> 00:05:48,700
Sundays for everybody and all of
a sudden, all the I get this
74
00:05:48,700 --> 00:05:53,100
like, barrage of text messages
saying, the Curtis was like, we,
75
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,200
Got a big one.
Oh, who is it?
76
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,900
It's always hard building.
Okay, okay, yeah that's good.
77
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,900
It would have been nice to be
unexpected but it's nice getting
78
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:07,800
getting that commitment now
versus waiting until September
79
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,000
because you never know what can
happen between now and then
80
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:15,200
absolutely you really don't but
to have him essentially in the
81
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,800
boat is a great thing.
And I mean, you take a look at
82
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:24,000
an overall.
I mean, I mean by 24/7 for Star
83
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,300
top 250 player, essentially he's
246.
84
00:06:28,300 --> 00:06:34,100
So he's in the top 24/7.
The number 18 cornerback top 25
85
00:06:34,100 --> 00:06:39,500
in California, plethora of
offers Brian Auburn LSU,
86
00:06:39,500 --> 00:06:43,300
Nebraska Notre, Dame Oregon,
Texas USC.
87
00:06:43,700 --> 00:06:46,800
So, essentially he is a
nationwide recruit.
88
00:06:47,900 --> 00:06:49,600
I know you've looked at a little
tape on.
89
00:06:49,900 --> 00:06:53,100
What do you, what do you mean?
Is he that boundary?
90
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,500
Three corners if you had that
skill set.
91
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,100
Yeah he's definitely got that
skill set in and what I like
92
00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:00,700
about about me and I know we've
been hammering this home but
93
00:07:00,900 --> 00:07:04,100
Universe until I think this is a
guy that might end up, you know,
94
00:07:04,100 --> 00:07:07,300
D Hall style may be playing
playing both ways and we're
95
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:11,000
sense because he's got a lot of
offensive Talent as well, but
96
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,900
he's going to be a guy that can
lock you up on defense at the
97
00:07:13,900 --> 00:07:15,400
corner spot.
So I like him.
98
00:07:15,700 --> 00:07:18,600
Definitely playing.
They're playing outside and I
99
00:07:18,608 --> 00:07:22,700
think he's going to be a guy
that probably slides into maybe
100
00:07:22,700 --> 00:07:25,300
not.
Right away into Farley's role
101
00:07:25,300 --> 00:07:30,200
when he leaves, but probably
slipping into Waller spot first
102
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,700
and then maybe maybe sliding
over after the fact.
103
00:07:32,700 --> 00:07:35,700
So I'm really really high on DJ
Harvey.
104
00:07:35,700 --> 00:07:39,000
I'm really pumped that he's in
the boat, the same here, man.
105
00:07:39,500 --> 00:07:43,700
You know, Not only was it, you
know, big four-star to get but
106
00:07:43,700 --> 00:07:46,800
it's one of those things with
the midnight Menace that we did,
107
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,900
right before, all the covid
stuff, broke it pays off.
108
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:53,600
Also, some people questioning
should we recruit All over the
109
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,400
country again, this is one of
those things, the other guys who
110
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,300
committed and decommitted that
still proves that we can get
111
00:08:00,300 --> 00:08:04,600
guys to commit from, not our
normal recruiting footprint and
112
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:11,300
you have to take those chances.
Now Braun great.
113
00:08:11,300 --> 00:08:16,100
We've got Harvey but some other
news popped up just a few days
114
00:08:16,100 --> 00:08:21,100
ago.
Not one but two additional
115
00:08:21,100 --> 00:08:27,400
recruiting positions have been
Posted which me and you probably
116
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,000
feel the same way.
If they've been posted, probably
117
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,299
already got the higher it's just
one of those.
118
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,299
Yeah, we got to put it on the
website just so, you know, you
119
00:08:36,299 --> 00:08:41,000
jump through the state of
Virginia that are necessary.
120
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:43,799
I'm sure they already have this
lined up.
121
00:08:44,500 --> 00:08:48,200
I'm sure they probably had
several guys that they were
122
00:08:48,300 --> 00:08:51,300
looking at.
Ya been whittled down from there
123
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,200
before you know.
I don't think that's necessarily
124
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,400
something that they were going
to throw an outside hire out
125
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,400
there.
I think they probably already
126
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,300
had some guys that either had
this position in other schools
127
00:09:02,300 --> 00:09:06,000
or had been doing some other
type of work for the Virginia
128
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,400
Tech and now they're moving into
this more focused role on staff.
129
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,500
So I think that's going to be
big big for recruiting going
130
00:09:13,500 --> 00:09:14,900
forward.
Obviously.
131
00:09:14,900 --> 00:09:20,500
I think we still need to do more
in the area but getting this
132
00:09:20,500 --> 00:09:22,900
especially considering
everything going on with covid
133
00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:26,600
and Budgets and all that stuff.
The fact that we're all still
134
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:30,200
move on, this is pretty big that
does speak.
135
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:34,100
Some some to are working within
our budget.
136
00:09:34,300 --> 00:09:37,800
Yeah, you definitely definitely
says that we're doing a lot with
137
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,200
a little from that perspective.
So I like that and I like the
138
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,100
way we're positioning ourselves
to get better in this area
139
00:09:44,100 --> 00:09:47,300
because we definitely of all the
areas we have recruiting is
140
00:09:47,300 --> 00:09:51,400
definitely the one we need to
get better in 100% And if you
141
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:55,100
take a look at the position
title, Eels, let's kind of talk
142
00:09:55,100 --> 00:09:59,000
through them for a second, the
first because we already have
143
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,700
this position on staff or a
essentially a higher tiers and
144
00:10:03,700 --> 00:10:06,100
assistant director of player
Personnel football.
145
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,000
What do you foresee that being?
Because clearly, you've got
146
00:10:10,100 --> 00:10:13,100
piercing, Proto is one of the
directors.
147
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,900
Is this, just another helping
hand for him or is this?
148
00:10:17,900 --> 00:10:19,200
You can he's going to be a
little bit more.
149
00:10:20,300 --> 00:10:22,500
Probably is going to be more of
a helping hand.
150
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:28,200
I think initially He just to
manage the workload and to kind
151
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:32,300
of be more the bug in the ear of
the recruits and talking things
152
00:10:32,300 --> 00:10:38,200
through and looking at some of
the film that is just there's
153
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,800
just a lot out there and I think
you know when you're looking for
154
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:45,500
system fits and I think that
that's where I recruiting is
155
00:10:45,500 --> 00:10:47,600
started.
Moving towards is you guys that
156
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,800
fit what we're trying to do, not
just the biggest names of the
157
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,000
board things like this are
going.
158
00:10:53,100 --> 00:10:55,300
Biki.
So I'm looking forward to seeing
159
00:10:55,300 --> 00:10:58,400
what they can do with these.
All right, now, the other one
160
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:01,400
more interesting, part of the
assistant, director of on-campus
161
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:06,800
recruiting football to me here,
that that sounds like when
162
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,500
they're those big weekends.
We are now going to have someone
163
00:11:09,500 --> 00:11:10,900
who's going to be in charge of
that.
164
00:11:10,900 --> 00:11:14,400
It is that what you hear?
That as that's exactly what I
165
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:18,200
hear that as that this is no
longer is yet.
166
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:23,000
See you go running the
recruiting blueprint.
167
00:11:23,300 --> 00:11:28,600
With running all of these
weekend festivities or Junior
168
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,600
days or any of that stuff, this
is going to be someone that is
169
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,000
dedicated to setting those up.
Making sure that everyone is
170
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,400
where they need to be that each
recruit gets time with the
171
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,500
specific coaches, that they're
looking to get all that needs to
172
00:11:44,508 --> 00:11:47,100
be set up and running.
It doesn't need to be done by
173
00:11:47,500 --> 00:11:50,400
our director of recruiting.
It needs to be done by someone
174
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,100
in this role.
And I think that's going to be
175
00:11:52,100 --> 00:11:55,200
good to kind of offer.
Load some of the workload and
176
00:11:55,200 --> 00:12:00,300
have a more focused position for
that type of activity.
177
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:05,200
Yeah, that's also the one you
feel like it's so important
178
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,200
because when you're when you
have these guys in you want to
179
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,600
be hitting what they want to do,
they want to see their major,
180
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,700
they want to see their coach.
But also I think that's the one
181
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:15,800
that could potentially could be
a former player.
182
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,600
And I mean, who knows, who it
could be.
183
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,100
And the reason I say that
because it's the on-campus
184
00:12:22,100 --> 00:12:26,800
recruiting visit And if you talk
about someone who's been there,
185
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,800
whether they were there 10 years
ago or just in the last few
186
00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,300
years, it kind of makes it easy
to.
187
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:37,300
Oh this kid is, you know, he is,
he's looking to major in this.
188
00:12:37,300 --> 00:12:41,800
So the buildings here, offices
are here will probably live
189
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:43,800
here.
Let me set how this up.
190
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,300
Yeah, coordination, perfect.
Someone who knows the campus
191
00:12:47,300 --> 00:12:48,800
now?
Is it going to be a big name
192
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:50,800
player?
Maybe, maybe not.
193
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:56,600
I think I'll says, Fans, hoping
this 11 like name recognizable.
194
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,400
I'll throw his name out there
because he is now living in
195
00:12:59,408 --> 00:13:02,800
Blacksburg Sergio render.
Yeah.
196
00:13:03,100 --> 00:13:06,000
Sergio render a you can't miss
him.
197
00:13:06,100 --> 00:13:12,700
He's 66 he is a message.
Being he loves the school, he
198
00:13:12,700 --> 00:13:16,500
has not only so much knowledge
of the on-campus stuff but
199
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:19,100
Sergio a big-time Outdoorsman
they've come.
200
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:23,000
When the area in general would I
be shocked?
201
00:13:23,100 --> 00:13:27,000
Look if in a couple weeks, we
would like to announce their
202
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:33,500
nope, not other position, maybe
it's another hokey or maybe it's
203
00:13:33,500 --> 00:13:38,200
someone trying to get their foot
in the door of coaching and
204
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:40,100
begin.
This is a great starting role.
205
00:13:40,300 --> 00:13:44,800
It's great for the program.
Yeah, I mean and with the other
206
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,900
role of the, if it's not someone
like Sergio, I mean do you think
207
00:13:47,900 --> 00:13:53,700
it can be someone more football
adjacent but you know, I hope
208
00:13:53,700 --> 00:13:56,400
you crab versus someone that was
directly involved with the
209
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,000
football program.
Very potentially.
210
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,200
I think that could be the case
as well.
211
00:14:02,500 --> 00:14:05,300
It definitely could be someone
again who knows campus knows the
212
00:14:05,300 --> 00:14:08,000
local culture and we'll try to
get the students around on
213
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,000
campus while they're there
visiting to make mom and dad
214
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,500
feel assured.
Hard to say, Hey you live here,
215
00:14:15,500 --> 00:14:18,200
your classes will be here.
Here's the football facilities
216
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,800
and almost one of those things.
Hey it's easy to set up a
217
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,200
meeting with the coach is if
you're on the staff, hey coach
218
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,700
cabinets.
We've got the tight end coming
219
00:14:26,700 --> 00:14:30,200
out of South Carolina.
What time do you want to punch
220
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:31,800
them in?
I'll bring them, you know, so he
221
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,200
knows what time they come to
your office is after we get them
222
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,100
at or something.
So yeah, it could be just a
223
00:14:36,100 --> 00:14:39,800
regular student but there's a
part of me that wants to be a
224
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,700
player because then you have
that further.
225
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,900
In while Kids on Campus, like I
played here, I ran through that
226
00:14:46,900 --> 00:14:49,500
tunnel.
I gave my Blood Sweat, and Tears
227
00:14:49,500 --> 00:14:53,900
on that, field displaced.
When it's electric, you will get
228
00:14:53,900 --> 00:14:55,600
goosebumps.
You will shake.
229
00:14:55,800 --> 00:15:00,700
So I'm hoping it's a player but,
you know, either way we should
230
00:15:00,700 --> 00:15:02,300
be happy.
We're getting more recruiting,
231
00:15:02,300 --> 00:15:05,600
Physicians that we are
definitely lacking behind on
232
00:15:05,900 --> 00:15:08,300
added for sure, for sure.
It's definitely a good good
233
00:15:08,300 --> 00:15:11,200
moving forward on that because,
you know, we can definitely see
234
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,000
improve it even though I think
We're gonna be alright, this
235
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,200
cycle after a rough last cycle
in a rough.
236
00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:19,800
April and May I think we're
going to turn things around
237
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,100
here.
We're starting to look better.
238
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,900
And we're starting to get more
in-state guys, which I think is
239
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,900
increasing some of the
perception D.
240
00:15:30,900 --> 00:15:33,200
Crassus a decrease in some of
the perception issues we've been
241
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:36,500
having from that perspective.
So I think we're moving in the
242
00:15:36,500 --> 00:15:39,000
right direction.
So hopefully we'll keep it up in
243
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,500
the these new hires will make
that even better 100% man.
244
00:15:42,900 --> 00:15:44,400
All right.
Well more fun for.
245
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,100
We had a couple more serious
topics here.
246
00:15:46,100 --> 00:15:49,500
Brian, do you see the video?
All we got, we got we got
247
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:53,700
freshman up freshman on campus,
although Warren.
248
00:15:54,900 --> 00:15:59,800
Alright, awesome to see a nice
little thing.
249
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:04,000
The football Twitter feed, put
out with all the guys you know
250
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:09,600
you know basically saying
they're here, saw some tweets if
251
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,600
you didn't see like the guys
with the dots guys leaving.
252
00:16:12,700 --> 00:16:16,000
I'm making it known they were
heading to Blacksburg.
253
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,100
The only one not theirs will for
Pinay who is to my mileage.
254
00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:27,200
Still stuck in France.
You know you know I hope that
255
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,200
something can be arranged for
that young man to get back
256
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,200
stateside to begin not only his
football career but to further
257
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:38,200
his academic career to
especially you kind of read
258
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,400
about him making you know all
the sacrifices to come over and
259
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:44,600
play and then to get Recruited
into get offer numerous
260
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:50,100
scholarships, but they're back.
And I'm sure the first thing
261
00:16:50,100 --> 00:16:52,000
they did was get a nice little
throat.
262
00:16:52,000 --> 00:17:03,200
Wha make sure they don't have
any Kofi but it's also, there we
263
00:17:03,208 --> 00:17:05,900
go.
Now don't go anywhere for 48
264
00:17:05,900 --> 00:17:09,300
hours while we confirm your -
please and thank you.
265
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,700
All right.
Well Brian there's been some
266
00:17:12,700 --> 00:17:17,300
other news looks kind of pivot
away from the Hokie nation and
267
00:17:17,300 --> 00:17:18,700
let's give it to some.
Use it broke.
268
00:17:18,700 --> 00:17:25,700
Last week Jimbo Fisher in Texas
A&M penalized for NCAA
269
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,800
violations.
He got a show-cause penalty,
270
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:35,300
basically, violated the rules
related between January, 2018,
271
00:17:35,300 --> 00:17:41,100
February 20, 19, Quite a few
things they're going on.
272
00:17:41,100 --> 00:17:43,600
They're getting the six months
show calls for Jimbo Fisher.
273
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,400
There's been a few other things
too.
274
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,500
Like they're not essentially not
going to be able to recruit in
275
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:53,100
the fall which you know the way
things are going is that even
276
00:17:53,100 --> 00:17:56,300
going to matter?
Hopefully hopefully the NCAA
277
00:17:56,300 --> 00:18:01,100
nuts up and says yeah that's
going to be extended to next
278
00:18:01,100 --> 00:18:04,100
fall since we're in a dead
period right now but it's hope
279
00:18:04,100 --> 00:18:07,500
so, especially considering the
fine was a joke.
280
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:18,000
The fine was an absolute joke.
Let me see if I can do something
281
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:22,100
about.
Like he makes that yeah, five
282
00:18:22,100 --> 00:18:27,000
thousand dollars.
That's not even like a quarter
283
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,000
of a percent of what they take
in Revenue wise.
284
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:34,600
What bullshit I saw, I can't
remember who posted with
285
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:38,300
someone's, like, yeah, that's
like point two five percent of
286
00:18:38,300 --> 00:18:40,400
his annual Salary or something
like that.
287
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:46,400
Like you makes that like eight
hours or something and it is, it
288
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,100
is nothing in the show causes
basically.
289
00:18:50,100 --> 00:18:54,200
Like basically, he can't like
text or email or anything with
290
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,900
the recruits.
But again, it's just kind of the
291
00:18:56,908 --> 00:18:59,300
stats being punished like that
during the covid stuff and it's
292
00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:02,100
not even gonna matter.
Hopefully again, they nut up and
293
00:19:02,100 --> 00:19:04,100
say no, we're going to move this
to next season.
294
00:19:04,500 --> 00:19:08,100
Yeah, I don't foresee the NCAA
nutting up on anything.
295
00:19:09,700 --> 00:19:11,700
Especially related to somebody
like Jimbo.
296
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,100
If what we're seeing with your
things that have happened
297
00:19:16,100 --> 00:19:20,700
recently is is going to be the
parameters that we see going
298
00:19:20,700 --> 00:19:22,200
forward.
We're going to continue seeing
299
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:25,900
these slaps on the wrist,
especially for programs that
300
00:19:25,900 --> 00:19:29,800
have either high profile
programs or high-profile
301
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,200
coaches.
Yeah.
302
00:19:31,500 --> 00:19:34,500
Now the funny piece is this
actually affects another program
303
00:19:34,500 --> 00:19:36,100
as well?
At least perception in some
304
00:19:36,100 --> 00:19:38,700
people's eyes, the primary guy
that was it.
305
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,200
Placated in this was j.
G j g.
306
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:46,100
Moved over to Tennessee, has
their running backs coach now so
307
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:48,300
it's one of these things.
People have opportunities
308
00:19:48,300 --> 00:19:56,600
McGregor cruden.
Well so and this year he would
309
00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:01,100
America 24/7 coach writing, he's
the number 15 recruiter in the
310
00:20:01,100 --> 00:20:09,500
country.
Well, you know, I'm being is
311
00:20:09,500 --> 00:20:15,700
Tennessee, but have some
potentially man very much
312
00:20:15,700 --> 00:20:18,900
potentially.
Um, it's just it's funny you see
313
00:20:18,900 --> 00:20:22,400
this happen.
And then once again Texas A&M
314
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,300
recruiting really well
Tennessee.
315
00:20:24,900 --> 00:20:28,400
Recruiting, you know, top five
right now and it's one of those
316
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,000
things where it's just kind of
like, yeah, what are you gonna
317
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,100
do jeromy Pruitt because, if
this has happened on your watch,
318
00:20:36,100 --> 00:20:41,000
you know, in people, again, I
think it's the next program that
319
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,100
gets busted with something.
Like this is going to get more
320
00:20:43,100 --> 00:20:46,400
of the Lash right now.
They laid it down for Texas,
321
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,900
A&M.
It's whoever's, busted next.
322
00:20:48,900 --> 00:20:54,200
The NCAA got, Scrutinized got
whipped got thrown fire like
323
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:55,900
what are you doing?
You didn't nothing.
324
00:20:56,100 --> 00:21:00,200
Do the next program is like
three years show cause penalty
325
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:03,300
postseason ban and you can't
coach for four years.
326
00:21:04,100 --> 00:21:09,600
Uh-huh.
Wait, but Jimbo exactly and if
327
00:21:10,100 --> 00:21:12,400
that's the thing, they're never
going to drop the hammer on
328
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:17,300
someone like Jimbo like that.
Which is, I mean, you know, it
329
00:21:17,300 --> 00:21:20,000
is what it is at this point.
I think we come to expect it.
330
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:24,400
Anytime one of these major
programs starts getting into
331
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,900
some sort of trouble, it seems
to kind of roll off their back a
332
00:21:27,908 --> 00:21:31,800
little bit.
You know, they'll get, they'll
333
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,300
get the, the cut but they don't
lose the limb exact.
334
00:21:35,500 --> 00:21:39,200
Actly and it's only a minor cut.
It's like it's like our children
335
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,800
falling down on payment and
skinning they're neat.
336
00:21:42,300 --> 00:21:44,100
I heard.
Okay, I'm good.
337
00:21:44,500 --> 00:21:47,200
You rub some dirt on it.
Move Along exactly.
338
00:21:47,500 --> 00:21:51,900
All right, Brian, this just
broke a couple hours ago and,
339
00:21:52,900 --> 00:21:56,100
you know, it's pretty big.
It's it's one of those things.
340
00:21:56,100 --> 00:22:00,200
Basically, the ivy league, has
ruled out clean off, all Sport
341
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,600
with ball.
Do they got perona pandemic?
342
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,200
And right now, no decision has
been made about winter or spring
343
00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,800
sports or whether it falls
Force, could be played and the
344
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,300
spring of 2021.
Now, they've already taken some
345
00:22:16,300 --> 00:22:18,200
measures.
I don't think anybody sees this
346
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,000
as a shock.
So much of their stuff is going
347
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,500
online.
I'm sure you saw that over the
348
00:22:22,500 --> 00:22:23,700
last few weeks.
I think, who was it?
349
00:22:23,700 --> 00:22:26,700
Harvard, Harvard, everything's
going to be online.
350
00:22:26,700 --> 00:22:30,300
I'll cool tuition to decrease
from the 47,000 know.
351
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:36,700
Do you think this is impacting
P5 G5 or the ivy league?
352
00:22:36,700 --> 00:22:41,800
Sort of Different.
The ivy league is definitely
353
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,300
different in the biggest thing
is the ivy league, doesn't
354
00:22:45,300 --> 00:22:49,400
really depend on any athletic
revenue for the functioning of
355
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:54,200
their athletic department.
Obviously it's cake and helps
356
00:22:54,200 --> 00:23:00,500
it's the bonus to help with the
budget, but they would have most
357
00:23:00,500 --> 00:23:04,000
of these Sports even if they
didn't have fans in the stands
358
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,600
and things like that.
So they operate more in the same
359
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,000
room.
Rome as like you know, division
360
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,800
to division three, maybe even
D1, non-scholarship schools like
361
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,200
Davidson.
So I don't think that they're
362
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,700
going to that this is
necessarily indicative of what
363
00:23:22,700 --> 00:23:25,600
we're going to see for G5 R
power 5 in the fall.
364
00:23:26,500 --> 00:23:29,900
That said the fact that anyone
did it is definitely news and
365
00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:34,400
definitely could could be a
precursor, but I don't think it,
366
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:38,700
you know it's necessarily A you
know, T leave.
367
00:23:38,900 --> 00:23:42,700
And we're because this happened
some other she was going to fall
368
00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:46,700
there, but it's still, it's
still not good.
369
00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:49,200
In terms of what how we feel
about it.
370
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,900
I think I think it's definitely
probably brings us down a little
371
00:23:52,900 --> 00:23:56,300
bit because the other ones gone
you know, it makes it easier for
372
00:23:56,300 --> 00:23:59,300
others to say, hey well maybe
let's take a look at what
373
00:23:59,300 --> 00:24:02,600
they're doing.
Yeah, and if you don't remember,
374
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:07,200
they were the first to cancel
their basketball tournament back
375
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:10,800
in March.
And then slowly the tea leaves
376
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:15,900
everything fell into place that
was a is a little bit different
377
00:24:15,900 --> 00:24:18,800
than it is.
Now the amount of knowledge
378
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:25,100
about the coronavirus in March
compared to the 8th of July you
379
00:24:25,100 --> 00:24:28,900
know, almost four months later
is completely different point in
380
00:24:28,900 --> 00:24:32,800
time, people were thinking 78
percent death rate.
381
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,800
Well it's about a one two, a one
and a half percent.
382
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,100
Is that what you've been?
And seeing it's about about 11
383
00:24:41,100 --> 00:24:44,900
percent for kind of the healthy
population and four to five
384
00:24:44,900 --> 00:24:47,700
percent, for immunocompromised
or elderly.
385
00:24:48,100 --> 00:24:50,000
Yeah.
And it's even bigger on the
386
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:53,100
elderly State.
I mean, you know, you, every
387
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:57,200
keep an eye on the science like
60, you know, like it's four and
388
00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:01,100
a half, you get into the 70s,
it's like six and a half.
389
00:25:01,100 --> 00:25:04,100
You get into the 80s and older,
you know, you're back where it
390
00:25:04,100 --> 00:25:07,100
really is affecting.
Plus the immuno compromised,
391
00:25:07,100 --> 00:25:10,600
folks.
But in, but in reality, we're
392
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:15,500
starting to know more valuable
and yet there are spikes, that
393
00:25:15,500 --> 00:25:17,800
sucks.
Luckily we're in a state, that's
394
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:19,800
not seeing a spike.
We're actually seeing more
395
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:24,800
downward Trend.
So again, who knows.
396
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,800
I do think you know some people
are like, oh this is it, this is
397
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,400
it.
Oh my God, they're going to like
398
00:25:31,300 --> 00:25:33,900
y'all don't realize the amount
of money.
399
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:38,300
Not only the these athletic
Department's depend on but the
400
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:45,500
It is ending these, the
communities, I mean and I don't
401
00:25:45,500 --> 00:25:49,000
want to try to be doing Gloom.
But if there was no college
402
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:54,500
football season certain cities,
and towns Blacksburg would be
403
00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:59,400
one of them Blacksburg, they
would place like Tuscaloosa, you
404
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,900
know, even a place like
Greenville.
405
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:08,800
They would get hit hard in me.
It's that's a small, very small
406
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:12,100
percentage, but you imagine
literally saying, well, we're
407
00:26:12,100 --> 00:26:14,100
going to cancel and later prayer
can own.
408
00:26:14,100 --> 00:26:18,300
You know what?
100 cities, 100 cities are small
409
00:26:18,300 --> 00:26:20,000
City pounds.
Yeah.
410
00:26:20,300 --> 00:26:23,300
And that's kind of one of those
couch.
411
00:26:23,300 --> 00:26:25,000
Like do it.
Do we do that?
412
00:26:25,100 --> 00:26:29,600
No, you know, because
essentially that's kind of,
413
00:26:29,900 --> 00:26:33,200
that's kind of what they're if
they decide to cancel your Going
414
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:37,600
to see a lot of businesses in
these college towns and go under
415
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,900
sure and it's going to be I hate
to say it but it's going to
416
00:26:40,900 --> 00:26:45,400
disproportionately affect the
area like Blacksburg you know,
417
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:49,000
compared to somewhere like
Columbus and percent.
418
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,800
Even though they have, you know,
almost double the fans at a
419
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:59,000
given game than we do.
They have other things going on
420
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,700
in their city that can Bowie at
least carry them through.
421
00:27:02,900 --> 00:27:07,400
Whereas most of the town of
Blacksburg depends on students
422
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,900
being there and people coming in
on Saturdays.
423
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,700
Yeah.
And whether it be Saturday in
424
00:27:12,700 --> 00:27:16,600
the fall or Saturdays in the
winter for basketball game, or a
425
00:27:16,608 --> 00:27:18,500
Friday night game.
So, 100%.
426
00:27:19,100 --> 00:27:21,200
All right, well, we're going to
move on, and actually get to our
427
00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:25,700
topic today.
We need to defend Lane Stadium.
428
00:27:25,700 --> 00:27:27,800
Boom.
All right.
429
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,700
So Force for games, versus the
ACC UVA.
430
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:37,300
Say, Georgia Tech, Boston,
College, and Miami Brian.
431
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,200
Let's just start with them, just
down the road.
432
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:45,000
So you can see, for let's start
with UVA, they are returning
433
00:27:45,700 --> 00:27:49,700
seven starters on offense
Mountain starters on defense.
434
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,000
I mean, Brian, who they losing
it?
435
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:56,700
They losing someone who
literally carried them, to, at
436
00:27:56,700 --> 00:27:59,500
least three victories last year,
maybe more.
437
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,500
Yeah.
So they are losing.
438
00:28:03,100 --> 00:28:04,900
Bryce Perkins, their
quarterback.
439
00:28:05,700 --> 00:28:07,300
No big deal.
You're just the heart and soul
440
00:28:07,300 --> 00:28:14,300
of the offense and accounting
for almost 4,500 yards of
441
00:28:14,300 --> 00:28:19,900
offense himself.
So yeah, 3530 yards passing with
442
00:28:19,900 --> 00:28:24,300
22 touchdowns.
And another 769 rushing with 11
443
00:28:24,300 --> 00:28:28,200
touchdowns, you know,
second-team all-acc got signed
444
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,700
with the Rams as an undrafted
free agent this year.
445
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:35,100
So that's going to be the big,
big departure, but there's other
446
00:28:35,100 --> 00:28:38,100
big things going on there as
well, because a couple of guys
447
00:28:38,100 --> 00:28:41,300
that he was throwing that ball
to are gone as well.
448
00:28:41,900 --> 00:28:46,000
I'll cease Dubois wide, receiver
all-acc, honorable mention had
449
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:53,300
1062 yards and six touchdowns
last year and Joe read the wide
450
00:28:53,300 --> 00:28:59,800
receiver and return Specialist
made first team, all-acc is an
451
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:04,200
all-purpose kick returner.
Six return yards and two
452
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:09,700
touchdowns and added another 679
receiving and he got picked up
453
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,800
by the Chargers as an undrafted
free agent.
454
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:18,800
So we're talking about two guys
there that are now in the NFL on
455
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,200
rosters.
As of right now then that's just
456
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,600
on the offensive side of the
ball.
457
00:29:24,700 --> 00:29:27,500
They lost a couple guys that you
mentioned, non returning
458
00:29:27,500 --> 00:29:31,300
starters, the two guys they lost
or pretty key as well about
459
00:29:31,300 --> 00:29:35,100
Bryce hole here.
Obviously, he was missing most
460
00:29:35,100 --> 00:29:39,100
of the least the back half of
the season last year, but he was
461
00:29:39,100 --> 00:29:44,800
projected as a first rounder
even before all this injury took
462
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,100
place and he got injured against
Miami, still ended up getting
463
00:29:49,100 --> 00:29:52,400
drafted by the Jets in the fifth
round and he was second-team
464
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,400
All-American in 2018.
So this is a guy that
465
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,600
potentially could have been a
second or third round, pick a
466
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:01,400
feudal went out last year and
then ended up coming back and
467
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,900
unfortunately getting injured
and Prettiest dress that a
468
00:30:03,908 --> 00:30:07,800
little bit there and the last
guy I want to talk about is
469
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,800
Jordan back.
He led the team in tackles,
470
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,600
sorry, lesbian sex with seven
and a half and added 69 tackles
471
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,200
and he got picked up by the
Panthers as an undrafted free
472
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,000
agent.
So, you know, I've got five guys
473
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,500
here, four of them are on NFL
rosters right now I'm sure
474
00:30:24,500 --> 00:30:26,500
Dubois is going to get picked up
at some point.
475
00:30:26,500 --> 00:30:31,100
He's definitely got the hands
and the size I think speed is a
476
00:30:31,108 --> 00:30:32,600
concern.
He's doesn't quite have that.
477
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,300
NFL speed that you're looking
at, but I think he might find
478
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:38,800
his way on the roster depending
on what the NFL season looks
479
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,100
like as well.
So those are the big guys?
480
00:30:41,100 --> 00:30:46,300
They're going to be missing.
Yeah, man, you know, Perkins,
481
00:30:46,300 --> 00:30:50,200
was that offense last year?
People can say what they want.
482
00:30:50,700 --> 00:30:52,700
I watched clearly, I watch the
tech game.
483
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:56,100
If he's not on the field, they
lose by 20 points.
484
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:59,400
Don't at me?
The are bu game.
485
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,600
If he doesn't do what he does in
the latter half of that game,
486
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,200
they lose totally life.
Last year?
487
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:10,000
Yeah, Florida State. again later
Rolex, in that game, They
488
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,800
literally it was they could have
lost three games, one being
489
00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:18,600
absolutely wretched loss total.
You could only use heroin last
490
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,400
year, but Brian is a kind of
kind of scroll through here.
491
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,000
And look at their schedule last
year.
492
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,100
After Bryce hall, went down in
that.
493
00:31:25,100 --> 00:31:28,900
Miami game.
They only the sea.
494
00:31:28,900 --> 00:31:33,700
They gave up 28 points
Louisville. 31 of UNC 28, to
495
00:31:33,700 --> 00:31:39,300
Georgia, Tech, 27, to Liberty,
and then 32 us, And then I'm not
496
00:31:39,300 --> 00:31:40,600
going to count the other two
games.
497
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:46,100
So we're on the first ones, they
had given up 17 - 35 to Notre
498
00:31:46,100 --> 00:31:52,800
Dame but that's a little
different 1724 1714 10.
499
00:31:54,300 --> 00:31:57,400
Kind of a difference in the
Cadence, there of how many
500
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,700
points they gave up after Bryce
hall, went down.
501
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,700
So they got to kind of live
without him for a little while,
502
00:32:06,300 --> 00:32:09,800
but now.
Well, Midseason, something like
503
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,600
that happens.
People don't know what you're
504
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,300
doing until the tape.
Slowly starts getting on there.
505
00:32:14,700 --> 00:32:17,000
But how is quite OK, we kind of
know what you're going to do
506
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:22,400
without a lock down the corner.
I think at the big loss in think
507
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:23,300
me.
And you've already kind of
508
00:32:23,300 --> 00:32:26,100
talked about it with them.
If they're going to make a Bowl
509
00:32:26,100 --> 00:32:31,700
this year, they're going to win
some rock fights like 1417 1413
510
00:32:31,700 --> 00:32:35,300
because of losing that much on
offense.
511
00:32:35,300 --> 00:32:38,500
Now, recruiting classes Braun,
they had left.
512
00:32:38,700 --> 00:32:42,900
Years ago.
Okay, 58 and twenty Seventeen,
513
00:32:43,100 --> 00:32:48,700
fifty nine and twenty 1839 and
2019, another got some transfer.
514
00:32:48,700 --> 00:32:52,400
So who is the key guys, coming
back, and then some of the
515
00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:57,400
emerging players.
So, in terms of returning, key
516
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:02,200
starters, first one, I want to
highlight is going to be the
517
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,600
other receiver.
That was getting some of those
518
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:08,200
balls thrown to him other than
the two that are now.
519
00:33:09,300 --> 00:33:11,100
No, now gone.
So that's going to be a Tyrell
520
00:33:11,100 --> 00:33:14,700
Jana wide receiver.
He's the only returning primary
521
00:33:14,700 --> 00:33:18,500
target from last season.
He had a big second half of the
522
00:33:18,500 --> 00:33:21,100
Season especially when they had
to start scoring some more
523
00:33:21,100 --> 00:33:27,000
points once price hauling down.
So ended up with eight hundred
524
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,900
eighty six yards, receiving and
three touchdowns.
525
00:33:29,900 --> 00:33:33,800
So pretty big numbers in terms
of yards there for, you know, a
526
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:38,200
second or third option but
obviously your need to see his
527
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,200
touchdown.
Go up if he's going to replace
528
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:47,000
some of that production that was
lost Wayne taller Papa returning
529
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,300
starting running back.
I probably butchered that name
530
00:33:50,300 --> 00:33:57,600
but sorry Wayne but it is what
it is. 473 yards, rushing 12
531
00:33:57,600 --> 00:34:03,300
touchdowns in 2019.
Obviously any running back last
532
00:34:03,300 --> 00:34:05,400
year was kind of a secondary
option.
533
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:09,300
In terms of the running game
rice was the Number one option
534
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:13,100
in the running game.
Just you know looking at that
535
00:34:13,100 --> 00:34:16,500
the top rusher was out rushed
almost double by the
536
00:34:16,500 --> 00:34:20,600
quarterback.
Touchdowns are pretty good for
537
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:23,400
him, that would 12.
So if you can replicate that
538
00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,900
production and add some more
rushing yards, he could be a
539
00:34:25,900 --> 00:34:30,500
threat in 2020.
Let's move to the defense
540
00:34:30,500 --> 00:34:35,100
though, Zane's and gear.
He was a linebacker for them.
541
00:34:35,100 --> 00:34:38,000
LED them led the team in tackles
108 last year.
542
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:44,000
Really did some big things for
them because he can move across
543
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,500
the field.
Well, and really make a lot of
544
00:34:47,500 --> 00:34:51,000
plays from that inside
linebacker position and the
545
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,699
other guys, Joey blunt.
He was a safety was third team,
546
00:34:54,699 --> 00:34:59,500
all-acc in 2019, he had 95
combined tackles from the safety
547
00:34:59,500 --> 00:35:01,400
spot.
So he was making some plays in
548
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,600
the running game obviously to
get those numbers up and he had
549
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,600
four sacks and three
interceptions as well.
550
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:11,200
So kind of a do-it-all player.
Or not, you know, the most elite
551
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:15,100
safety but a guy that can really
make plays in different ways and
552
00:35:15,100 --> 00:35:17,400
hurt you in different ways.
So that's going to be the big
553
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,200
guys.
They have returning that we're
554
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:23,500
standouts last year.
Yeah they've got a lot of
555
00:35:23,500 --> 00:35:27,100
unknown and I'll talk about that
a little bit here in the the
556
00:35:27,100 --> 00:35:31,800
biggest one is going to be all
kind of have them 1A and 1B here
557
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,900
is who's going to be their
quarterback to replace the
558
00:35:35,900 --> 00:35:40,100
production of brace Perkins.
The lead guy in that role is
559
00:35:40,100 --> 00:35:48,200
going to be Brennan Armstrong.
Lefty not quite the dynamic
560
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,800
Runner that Perkins was
obviously but you're bigger guy
561
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:58,200
kind of more of a you know, Tim
Tebow taysom Hill kind of that
562
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:02,000
hybrid player.
So I mean he could potentially
563
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,200
do some damage in that role.
Definitely Compares a little bit
564
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:10,800
more to taste them than to TiVo.
And still still, you know, like
565
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,000
most of those that both of those
guys are still in raw thrower,
566
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:18,200
but not quite as raw.
As Perkins was when he came to
567
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,700
UVA initially.
But again, you're not talking
568
00:36:20,700 --> 00:36:24,600
about the same degree of
athleticism and you got Katie on
569
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,400
Thompson who the quarterback
transfer from Mississippi State.
570
00:36:29,900 --> 00:36:35,500
He's a better thrower than
Perkins and probably is close to
571
00:36:35,500 --> 00:36:38,000
him in terms of Athletics
athleticism.
572
00:36:38,100 --> 00:36:41,900
I'm an explosion with his legs.
The question being is, can he
573
00:36:41,900 --> 00:36:46,700
learn this offense fast enough
and get up to speed before the
574
00:36:46,700 --> 00:36:49,400
start of the Season especially
now that we're dealing with all
575
00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:52,100
this covid stuff and I know
we're going to have an extended
576
00:36:52,100 --> 00:36:56,400
camp, but here's here's a guy
that probably could have used a
577
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,800
little bit more time with the
coaches even if it was just
578
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,700
getting mental reps, that he's
been able to get.
579
00:37:00,700 --> 00:37:04,500
So I think that's going to be
key to whether or not he can
580
00:37:04,500 --> 00:37:06,400
pass Brennan.
There is, can you pick up that
581
00:37:06,408 --> 00:37:09,600
offense fast enough?
So that's going to be the big
582
00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,700
thing.
You need to replace another
583
00:37:12,700 --> 00:37:16,000
thing they need to look at is
their offensive line.
584
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,700
They look good.
Along the front.
585
00:37:19,700 --> 00:37:24,800
They've got seven, guys, that
have all started games at the
586
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,300
power 5 level.
Are they?
587
00:37:27,300 --> 00:37:29,400
They've got seven.
Guys are starting to the power 5
588
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:32,800
level, the problem is damn about
all they have on scholarship.
589
00:37:33,500 --> 00:37:38,100
So one guy goes down their
quarterbacks going to be,
590
00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:41,800
they're going to be putting long
walk on land that they're gonna
591
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:44,800
get killed.
If they have a couple of just
592
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:49,200
not even like big injuries just
like, oh, you know, Sprained his
593
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:51,000
wrist can't play for two weeks.
Yeah.
594
00:37:52,700 --> 00:37:55,500
So I mean like we kind of had on
the defensive line the last
595
00:37:55,500 --> 00:37:59,500
couple years, they kind of feel
pretty good about their their
596
00:37:59,500 --> 00:38:03,300
first line but they're really
kind of questionable and their
597
00:38:03,300 --> 00:38:08,300
depth and if they have got a
grad transfer from Penn State,
598
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:13,000
Alex Geller stood he's again one
of only seven guys that are on
599
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,700
scholarship right now and
they're going to need him to
600
00:38:15,700 --> 00:38:19,700
really step up and be a player.
If they're going to have any
601
00:38:19,700 --> 00:38:22,000
sort of success because right
now, they're pretty much rolling
602
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,700
with the bare minimum
scholarship, players that you
603
00:38:24,707 --> 00:38:28,500
would like to have on an
offensive line, take you on a
604
00:38:28,508 --> 00:38:32,400
road trip.
You prefer at least have seven
605
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:37,000
guys that you can depend on when
you take a, take a road trip.
606
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:41,600
So they're going to be
struggling for depth but I think
607
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,900
they really liked their front
five and the the two guys, the
608
00:38:44,900 --> 00:38:48,600
two primary guys, they have to
rotate in so deep.
609
00:38:48,700 --> 00:38:51,800
Offensive line is is another
area where they're going to
610
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,900
probably see some more
production.
611
00:38:54,900 --> 00:38:58,900
They really gelled late in the
year at that position.
612
00:38:58,900 --> 00:39:01,600
I think they got better
especially I think they had to
613
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:05,700
because of losing price.
Whole had to catch produce more
614
00:39:05,700 --> 00:39:09,000
pressure and the guy that was
doing it was Juwan.
615
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:12,900
Biggs who was a defensive,
lineman had a lot of time as a
616
00:39:12,900 --> 00:39:15,200
freshman there.
He's going to need to take
617
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,600
another step because he's going
to be A little bit more.
618
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,900
I think this year again kind of
going back to the some of the
619
00:39:23,908 --> 00:39:26,300
secondary pieces, they need to
replace.
620
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,200
But he had 19 tackles and some
limited time in the back half of
621
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,300
the season three tackles for
loss of sack.
622
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:36,000
So if he can step in, they could
be all right.
623
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:39,400
Up front on the defensive side.
But those are the guys that I
624
00:39:39,408 --> 00:39:42,800
see is either, you know, key
guys or guys that are going to
625
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,700
step into major roles this year.
Yeah, I don't think you're wrong
626
00:39:46,700 --> 00:39:49,900
about any of them on isil Gana.
Now the only question I have,
627
00:39:49,900 --> 00:39:53,600
yeah, he had a good season last
year, with how many guys were on
628
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,600
Jaguar, and on Joe read, every
time they snap the ball in on
629
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,600
Bryce.
He was almost forgotten guy and
630
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,400
his it was that the reason he
had such good statistics and
631
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:06,500
came on late in the year or is
it because he's a good receiver.
632
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:09,000
This year.
We'll find out people too much
633
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:10,800
to produce.
Yeah, he's a good receiver if
634
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:14,500
his numbers drop off.
You know it's like yeah well it
635
00:40:14,500 --> 00:40:17,600
doesn't hurt to have two guys
who are looked at with the NFL
636
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,700
the Other to the quarterback
battle.
637
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,900
I mean to me it's wide open.
Yeah Brennan's been there but he
638
00:40:24,900 --> 00:40:26,800
didn't get the spring.
I think if they're going to
639
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:30,300
spring for an Armstrong's their
starter, without even a
640
00:40:30,308 --> 00:40:33,900
question, then they go out and
get T.
641
00:40:33,900 --> 00:40:37,500
It counts and Thompson and it's
almost like if they come in and
642
00:40:37,500 --> 00:40:40,500
they're equal or grunting one,
we have hair Barb.
643
00:40:40,500 --> 00:40:44,100
Does Bronco just say listen,
we're not good enough.
644
00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:47,300
Authentically to have a system
quarterback running.
645
00:40:47,300 --> 00:40:50,500
We need the best athlete on the
Field to essentially kind of do
646
00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:54,700
what Bryce did and content is a
four-star when he came out.
647
00:40:54,700 --> 00:40:58,300
So, he definitely has some skill
that he was a top-10, jul 2014,
648
00:40:58,300 --> 00:41:03,400
08 back.
So that's going to be very
649
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:05,300
interesting to see what happens
over the next.
650
00:41:05,300 --> 00:41:09,400
When we start camping, a few
weeks here, where's that depth
651
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,900
chart?
Go and is it also one of those
652
00:41:11,900 --> 00:41:15,500
things where what if it starts
with, they got played Georgia to
653
00:41:15,500 --> 00:41:20,400
begin with?
Yeah, I mean, You know, we all
654
00:41:20,408 --> 00:41:24,600
want to crush him as confidence,
but you know, coaches test on to
655
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:27,200
do that.
But printing our phone goes out
656
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,100
there and looks like dog shit.
Okay, we're just put Chianti in
657
00:41:30,100 --> 00:41:33,600
and what if he looks bad?
Now, luckily they don't have,
658
00:41:34,500 --> 00:41:38,000
you know, they do have some
weaker opponents, but then
659
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:44,800
they've got Clemson just weeks
after You know, or is it one of
660
00:41:44,808 --> 00:41:48,100
those things where Bronco is
just going to say whoever wins
661
00:41:48,100 --> 00:41:50,100
this Camp battle, unless they
get hurt?
662
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,700
They're my guy because if not,
I'm having to play with Egos and
663
00:41:54,700 --> 00:41:58,300
having to play with guys
thinking about things as we do
664
00:41:58,300 --> 00:41:59,300
this.
Yeah.
665
00:42:00,100 --> 00:42:03,500
So yeah, I'm probably good on
you.
666
00:42:03,500 --> 00:42:07,700
Be a good girl, you be a good.
Did they have any coaching
667
00:42:08,500 --> 00:42:11,800
changes up?
Oh yeah man, they did they
668
00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:13,900
actually Ali lost this couple
significance.
669
00:42:13,900 --> 00:42:17,700
Thanks for saying that Vic Sotto
who was their defensive line
670
00:42:17,700 --> 00:42:20,700
coach, you know.
God the thing you said started,
671
00:42:20,700 --> 00:42:25,100
gelatine in a year he not only
got higher, he got hired by Blue
672
00:42:25,100 --> 00:42:29,800
Blood, he got hired by USC at
that says a lot.
673
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:33,000
Right there, he's been replaced
by Clint symptom.
674
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:38,000
Now Soto also had a significant
history with Mendenhall.
675
00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,200
This is the first player that
ever committed to him when he
676
00:42:40,207 --> 00:42:44,200
took over BYU.
So this Like some guy he found
677
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,200
six years ago and he's a really
good like a this is a connection
678
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:49,600
going back for 15 years.
That's a system.
679
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:51,900
Devotee.
They go.
680
00:42:52,700 --> 00:42:55,100
Now set them comes over from
Delaware, he'd been there for
681
00:42:55,100 --> 00:42:58,300
three years with Danny Rocco, he
was an All-American while he was
682
00:42:58,300 --> 00:43:01,400
at UVA.
He did get drafted in the second
683
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,700
round and he did play in the
league for three years.
684
00:43:03,700 --> 00:43:07,500
So familiarity with the school,
NFL type guy.
685
00:43:07,500 --> 00:43:11,200
So but any time you sort of see
that fluctuation of movement,
686
00:43:11,200 --> 00:43:15,900
Brian like, And this guy didn't
go to another a slight tear up.
687
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,800
He literally went through one of
the top 10 programs in the
688
00:43:19,808 --> 00:43:23,200
country.
And I'm really interested to see
689
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,100
how that deal on that played so
well, at the end of our period,
690
00:43:26,100 --> 00:43:29,600
if they're able to continue
that, because they're going to
691
00:43:29,900 --> 00:43:33,100
have to be that to get them into
a Bowl this year.
692
00:43:33,700 --> 00:43:36,700
Yeah, no doubt.
All right, let's move on with
693
00:43:36,700 --> 00:43:38,600
the Ramblin wreck from Georgia
Tech.
694
00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:42,600
The team returning, the most
production in the League.
695
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:46,700
This year, they're returning
nine starters on offense there.
696
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:52,200
Turning every single starter on
defense behind when I say that
697
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:59,400
like, is there anybody that
they've lost their?
698
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:05,000
So I got a, I got a few guys
here that they did lose.
699
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,100
Most of the production is on
offense.
700
00:44:08,100 --> 00:44:11,100
They had two guys that were
heavy contributors on defense
701
00:44:11,100 --> 00:44:14,200
that they lost that we will take
a look at, but the big guy on
702
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,600
offense is going to be Tyler
Davis.
703
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:20,200
He's six round draft pick by the
Jags.
704
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,200
He had 148 yards and a touchdown
in 11 games in 2019, which isn't
705
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:28,800
very impressive.
But his skill set was unique,
706
00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:33,200
he's kind of got, you know, that
joker type build.
707
00:44:33,700 --> 00:44:38,000
So with that unique, skillset
definitely, he was able to Pivot
708
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:43,400
that into a role in the NFL but
obviously that's an offense that
709
00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:49,100
was really in a Phase.
So not very many of these
710
00:44:49,100 --> 00:44:51,600
offensive numbers are going to
be impressive that I'm going to
711
00:44:51,607 --> 00:44:53,900
throw at you over the course of
this time.
712
00:44:53,900 --> 00:44:59,400
So I wouldn't necessarily count
the 148 and a touchdown against
713
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:00,800
good old.
Tyler Davis there.
714
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:06,300
But another guy that was lost is
going to be Jarrett's others.
715
00:45:06,300 --> 00:45:10,200
He was an offensive tackle, only
played at Georgia Tech one year
716
00:45:10,200 --> 00:45:14,200
he was originally at Vanderbilt
and transferred in, but he was
717
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,600
the guy that was able to help
them move.
718
00:45:16,700 --> 00:45:20,600
Away from some of those triple
option techniques and into more
719
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:25,900
of a spread type system.
And he did have some draft Buzz
720
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,600
heading into the NFL draft this
year but he ultimately wasn't
721
00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:33,100
signed or picked up on the other
side of the ball.
722
00:45:33,300 --> 00:45:39,100
These are guys that started at a
point in the season but the big
723
00:45:39,100 --> 00:45:40,900
one here is Brent avia's
Clanton.
724
00:45:40,900 --> 00:45:45,900
He was a three-year starter did
lose his position in the course
725
00:45:45,900 --> 00:45:49,400
of the Season.
Got Coming usurped registered
726
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:54,300
one second 2019 kind of more of
a plotter.
727
00:45:54,300 --> 00:45:56,600
He was there.
He was clogging things up but he
728
00:45:56,600 --> 00:46:01,100
didn't necessarily feel a stat
sheet and Christian Campbell is
729
00:46:01,100 --> 00:46:03,800
a safety.
He had 44, tackles in 2019, kind
730
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,200
of the, the first guy off the
bench for them making some
731
00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:09,600
plays.
So those are the guys that
732
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:13,000
they're going to be missing on
offense and defense this year.
733
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:18,400
Yeah, with the transition like
this, when you mention stats, it
734
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,100
really it really doesn't matter
from what they were doing.
735
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,700
Kind of like, you know, when I
give these recruiting class
736
00:46:24,700 --> 00:46:28,300
ranks, does it really like just
jump out because again, going
737
00:46:28,300 --> 00:46:32,700
from a triple option to, you
know, the offense that they're
738
00:46:32,700 --> 00:46:35,100
running under Jeff Collins is a
little different than they were
739
00:46:35,500 --> 00:46:44,200
48th and 28th, 2017 4420 1815,
2019, you know.
740
00:46:44,300 --> 00:46:49,300
So not really super high, not
even one really for high
741
00:46:49,500 --> 00:46:54,400
recruiting class and again
basing it towards the triple
742
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,200
option you know who are some of
their key guys, Braun coming
743
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:03,400
back that have to play better to
improve community on record.
744
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:07,300
So there's one guy would say
doesn't have to necessarily play
745
00:47:07,300 --> 00:47:10,000
better.
I think he just needs to fill in
746
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:13,800
more of what he was already
doing and in 2019 that's Jordan
747
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,400
Mason.
With the with the Smash Mouth
748
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:19,700
spread, he's going to be the guy
that's going to be carrying the
749
00:47:19,700 --> 00:47:23,200
load for them.
And in 2019, he had eight
750
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,600
hundred ninety nine yards.
Rushing and seven touchdowns so
751
00:47:26,900 --> 00:47:29,100
pretty good numbers, especially
for an offense.
752
00:47:29,100 --> 00:47:32,000
That was pretty anemic across
the board.
753
00:47:32,500 --> 00:47:35,200
The fact that they were pretty
much able to stack the Box
754
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,500
against him.
He was still able to get some
755
00:47:37,500 --> 00:47:40,000
production there so that that's
that's promising numbers.
756
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,700
And I think you're going to see
a lot more of that this year.
757
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:46,500
Partially because of some of the
things I'm going to go into with
758
00:47:46,500 --> 00:47:49,900
the emerging talent.
But the guy that has to get
759
00:47:49,900 --> 00:47:54,000
better in 2010, 2020 is going to
be James Graham.
760
00:47:55,000 --> 00:48:00,000
So he was a starter for most of
the season last year 1000 164
761
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:03,300
yards passing and 12 touchdowns
with seven interceptions.
762
00:48:04,100 --> 00:48:08,200
Again, those are not numbers
that you really want to climb up
763
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:14,100
on a mountain and say look at
this but they're not great.
764
00:48:14,100 --> 00:48:19,500
Especially 24 for the amount
that amount of starts and snaps
765
00:48:19,500 --> 00:48:22,900
to the ad on the field, he's
going to have to take the next
766
00:48:22,900 --> 00:48:26,600
step because at some point,
they're going to have to throw
767
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:30,500
the ball to get that.
That that box cleared out a
768
00:48:30,508 --> 00:48:34,200
little bit because they want to
run but they can't run.
769
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:39,500
If everybody's in the box and on
the defensive side of the ball,
770
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,500
big players going to be David
Currie.
771
00:48:41,500 --> 00:48:44,300
He had ninety seven tackles in
2019, death.
772
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:46,700
Finally the emotional leader on
the defense.
773
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:50,100
So look for him to be a guy
that's going to continue in that
774
00:48:50,100 --> 00:48:54,700
role and have a hopefully more
productive year for them.
775
00:48:54,700 --> 00:48:57,700
If they want to take another
step and maybe at least get
776
00:48:57,700 --> 00:49:01,200
somewhere in the in the bowl
eligible range this year.
777
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,700
Absolutely.
And Brian you mentioned it with
778
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,500
to me?
I'm he's the guy I've got it.
779
00:49:08,700 --> 00:49:13,000
James Grant asked improved if he
doesn't improve, you know, they
780
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:16,400
might have marginal.
From 39 to maybe four to five
781
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,600
wins but not to getting back
into a bowl, not doubling their
782
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:23,300
win total.
And when I hear you say Smash
783
00:49:23,300 --> 00:49:28,900
Mouth spread, I kind of think
like what does that mean?
784
00:49:28,900 --> 00:49:33,400
It's like well you know Brent
key he's an offensive lineman at
785
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:37,700
that is a offensive coordinator.
So make sense that he's
786
00:49:37,700 --> 00:49:39,600
probably.
Again, trying to leverage I'm
787
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:41,400
guessing a lot of spacing to
say.
788
00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,200
We're going to run at you but
we're going to do it in unique.
789
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,100
Quais.
So here, I think a little bit,
790
00:49:47,100 --> 00:49:49,400
little bit of what Ohio state
does.
791
00:49:49,400 --> 00:50:05,300
I mean, that's, that's kind of
the philosophy, okay, you'll see
792
00:50:06,200 --> 00:50:09,800
the ball around a little bit as
well, but they're definitely a
793
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:14,000
run first Sprint team.
Yeah, all right, well Brian.
794
00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:17,300
I've already said it, they're
going to have to get better.
795
00:50:17,300 --> 00:50:20,200
James, G gonna have to get
better who are some of the other
796
00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:24,300
guys that are emerging that for
this team to go from a 3-1 team
797
00:50:24,300 --> 00:50:28,500
to potentially six making it
back to a bowl who has to be
798
00:50:28,500 --> 00:50:32,000
some of their emerging Talent.
So the big thing is going to be
799
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,600
again in proving that offensive
line and getting offensive line
800
00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:37,500
that is more built for this
special.
801
00:50:37,500 --> 00:50:43,200
I'll spread over some of those
under sized mostly run blocking
802
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:47,200
only Players that they had under
the triple option.
803
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,800
So it's going to start with
getting a guy, like, Kenny
804
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:54,700
Cooper back on the field.
He was, he was Center.
805
00:50:54,700 --> 00:50:57,600
He was missed most of 2019, with
an injury for them.
806
00:50:58,300 --> 00:51:00,700
So he's going to step up
especially with his password
807
00:51:00,700 --> 00:51:02,700
because he is still a legacy
player.
808
00:51:03,100 --> 00:51:08,500
So that's not his strong suit
but he's a very good run
809
00:51:08,500 --> 00:51:11,200
blocker, he was good for them in
terms of communicating with the
810
00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:15,100
offensive line back in 2018.
So I think they'll I really
811
00:51:15,100 --> 00:51:19,100
appreciate having him back in
that role and apparently, he's
812
00:51:19,100 --> 00:51:21,800
based on what I've read is shown
some promise with the past Pro.
813
00:51:21,800 --> 00:51:27,000
So hopefully that that
translates for them, they also
814
00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,000
added Ryan Johnson as a grad
transfer from Tennessee.
815
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:33,100
So you coming from a blue blood
or at least up from a recruiting
816
00:51:33,100 --> 00:51:35,200
perspective?
A blue blood program here.
817
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,100
You know definitely going to
have that build that they're
818
00:51:39,100 --> 00:51:43,900
looking for to kind of step in
more of the larger and taller
819
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:45,800
often.
Of lineman versus some of the
820
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,800
guys that they what they had
previously under Johnson.
821
00:51:49,900 --> 00:51:53,400
And when we moved to the
defensive side, the big two
822
00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:58,100
names that I kept seeing was the
with big name that I was seeing
823
00:51:58,100 --> 00:52:01,000
was in.
Tony is Clayton, defensive end
824
00:52:01,300 --> 00:52:05,400
transfer from Florida, set up
all of 2019.
825
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:09,100
This guy was a pretty highly
rated player coming out of high
826
00:52:09,100 --> 00:52:13,400
school and just couldn't quite
find a spot in the Florida
827
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,500
rotation.
But now with Georgia Tech, he's
828
00:52:16,500 --> 00:52:19,400
looking to probably make some
noise being the their primary
829
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,100
pass rusher.
Going into 2020.
830
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:27,000
I'm in the last guy that I
wanted to highlight here is a
831
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,600
wide receiver and a freshman at
that.
832
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:35,100
So when we talk about wide
receivers with their previous
833
00:52:35,100 --> 00:52:40,300
offensive play style, they were
more block first guys they were
834
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:44,600
they were pretty much brought
into block and when they got I'd
835
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:48,900
long down situations, run some
go routes and catch balls that
836
00:52:48,900 --> 00:52:55,200
are just thrown up in the air.
Not exactly a crazy wild tree or
837
00:52:55,200 --> 00:52:56,900
developmental, you know.
Yeah.
838
00:52:57,500 --> 00:53:00,700
It's very much.
Can you run go routes and can
839
00:53:00,700 --> 00:53:04,600
you out jump, guys?
And then, can you block?
840
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:07,900
So this is more of the wide
receiver that they're going to
841
00:53:07,908 --> 00:53:10,500
look for, in their, their new
philosophy.
842
00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:14,300
And here's a big step for you.
He tied Calvin Johnson's.
843
00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:17,100
Freshman, receiving touchdown
record with seven.
844
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:23,300
So think about it g.
Only had 12 touchdowns the whole
845
00:53:23,300 --> 00:53:27,900
season, seven of them went to
this guy.
846
00:53:28,500 --> 00:53:32,000
No he's Dependable got a lot to
build upon that in terms of
847
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,600
getting the yardage numbers up
because that's what they need to
848
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,200
do across the board.
But we know this guy can make
849
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:40,700
plays and get in the end zone.
So those are the guys that are
850
00:53:40,900 --> 00:53:43,000
looking to probably take the
next step to season.
851
00:53:43,300 --> 00:53:46,200
Absolutely.
You mentioned in Tony's Clayton,
852
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,100
he was a pretty high.
Guy coming out.
853
00:53:49,100 --> 00:53:52,000
I mean he was a four-star.
Here's a top 50 player when he
854
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,800
committed to Florida back under
him back in 2016, that's when
855
00:53:55,800 --> 00:53:58,800
McElwain was the head coach.
But clearly there was a
856
00:53:58,808 --> 00:54:00,300
connection there with Jeff
Collins.
857
00:54:00,300 --> 00:54:02,400
You have caution was the
defensive coordinator at that
858
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,900
point in time.
So one of those things and a
859
00:54:04,900 --> 00:54:08,100
program like Florida if you
don't get yourself to the top of
860
00:54:08,100 --> 00:54:11,000
the depth chart pretty quick,
even being a high for you can
861
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:15,100
five-star guys usually you can
get some planted pretty quick
862
00:54:15,100 --> 00:54:18,000
because there's more four and
five-star guys coming.
863
00:54:18,200 --> 00:54:21,600
Those type programs the
opportunity, to develop just
864
00:54:21,600 --> 00:54:24,700
isn't there.
So he has the connection with
865
00:54:24,700 --> 00:54:28,900
Collins, he's a talented player
especially coming out of high
866
00:54:28,900 --> 00:54:37,500
school and I really think in the
second year of the transition
867
00:54:37,500 --> 00:54:39,700
from the triple option, they're
going to have to lean on their
868
00:54:39,700 --> 00:54:44,000
defense more.
I mean to win more games they
869
00:54:44,008 --> 00:54:47,100
have to because that offense
isn't going to be there yet.
870
00:54:47,100 --> 00:54:52,300
I think it's as we've seen from
the past, going from an option,
871
00:54:52,300 --> 00:54:56,800
based offense more, whether it
be spread or whether it be a pro
872
00:54:56,800 --> 00:55:03,100
style, it takes minimum four
years tables, Bering Strait now
873
00:55:03,100 --> 00:55:09,600
behind about this The Georgia
Tech Yellow Jackets had no
874
00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:14,500
coding changes.
Oh but is it a shock with the
875
00:55:14,500 --> 00:55:20,200
guy again with that transition
in his second year after 3:00
876
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:22,900
and 9:00?
I mean is that Shopkin?
877
00:55:23,300 --> 00:55:26,300
No because you don't have anyone
really taking the next step
878
00:55:26,300 --> 00:55:30,400
because they didn't do enough in
year one for guys to be able to
879
00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:35,300
jump ship like that.
And also I think in Year One We
880
00:55:35,300 --> 00:55:38,000
haven't gotten to a point where
I think they've evaluated up to
881
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:42,200
see who owned that staff, isn't
quite cutting cutting mustard
882
00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:44,700
yet.
So, both things are kind of
883
00:55:44,700 --> 00:55:45,700
playing against them.
They are.
884
00:55:45,700 --> 00:55:48,100
So that's why you're not seeing
any sort of turnover because
885
00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,100
they just didn't have enough
Talent across the board to
886
00:55:51,100 --> 00:55:54,400
really have guys that were
marketable to other teams.
887
00:55:54,900 --> 00:55:58,100
And they don't think they've
seen enough, especially with the
888
00:55:58,100 --> 00:56:00,800
fact that they're still turning
over the roster to tell whether
889
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:04,500
it's a coaching problem or a
player problem recruiting
890
00:56:04,700 --> 00:56:08,000
Problem or anything like that.
So, time will tell, I think we
891
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:13,000
might see more movement on that
front after this year, as you
892
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:14,900
get a class or two under your
belt.
893
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:21,200
And you start seeing As guys are
making more better plays on the
894
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:22,800
field.
Are you seeing some shortcomings
895
00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,500
in terms of the others coaching
aspects?
896
00:56:26,100 --> 00:56:28,300
Yeah.
All right, let's go on up.
897
00:56:28,300 --> 00:56:33,300
Let's get Boston College done
here returning, seven players on
898
00:56:33,300 --> 00:56:39,100
all fronts non-defense, but
there is a really big hole on
899
00:56:39,100 --> 00:56:47,100
that offense now Braun giant,
huge, huge, huge hole and we're
900
00:56:47,100 --> 00:56:50,500
talking about a.j., Dylan,
Drafted by the Packers in the
901
00:56:50,500 --> 00:56:58,000
second round 1685 yards and 14
touchdowns in 2019, had another
902
00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:01,800
195 receiving yards and a
touchdown in 2019.
903
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:06,300
So you know, always considered
more of a, you know, pounding
904
00:57:06,700 --> 00:57:09,100
between the tackles back.
But he definitely showed a
905
00:57:09,107 --> 00:57:12,700
little versatility last year and
I think that's what helped him
906
00:57:12,700 --> 00:57:14,400
get.
Drafted, as high as he did
907
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:21,800
three-time first-team, all-acc,
Third team, All-American in 2019
908
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:25,400
coming.
This is about as you know stack
909
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:27,300
as you can get at the running
back position.
910
00:57:27,300 --> 00:57:30,600
In terms of accolades,
especially for a team that
911
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:35,100
wasn't very good last year.
They beat us but they weren't
912
00:57:35,100 --> 00:57:39,000
very good.
We'll get to that later.
913
00:57:40,100 --> 00:57:43,400
That is also, you know, they
don't have Anthony Brown
914
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:45,600
anymore.
So he had 1,200 yards passing
915
00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,900
and non touchdowns through just
over 5.
916
00:57:49,100 --> 00:57:53,500
Games last year before getting
injured against Louisville and
917
00:57:53,500 --> 00:57:57,100
he decided to transfer away from
Boston College after the the
918
00:57:57,100 --> 00:58:01,200
change in regime.
So those are going to be the two
919
00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:06,000
big things that they're missing
on offense and I think that's
920
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,800
going to be whether they can
replace those pieces.
921
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,600
Long term is going to be the
question as to whether whether
922
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:16,000
they can take another step or a
face are stuck at that 5 to 7
923
00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:18,800
win window that we've kind of
seen the map.
924
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:22,500
The last several years.
Absolutely, and you mentioned
925
00:58:22,500 --> 00:58:25,600
Anthony Brown transferring.
He didn't take a step down to.
926
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,900
He actually went a step up into
your heat transferred to Oregon
927
00:58:30,100 --> 00:58:32,000
and Oregon losing Herbert
clearly.
928
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:35,300
He has potential opportunity to
play out there because, you
929
00:58:35,300 --> 00:58:38,100
know, the New Year's falling
looking for you and brother
930
00:58:38,100 --> 00:58:44,300
solid Collegiate quarterback and
again regime changes, you know,
931
00:58:44,800 --> 00:58:47,800
if you can get out get you
sometimes you have to and for
932
00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:49,600
him he took a significant.
Grade.
933
00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:54,700
Now what the new coaching staff
there isn't really working with
934
00:58:54,700 --> 00:59:03,100
is great recruiting classes,
2017, 6720 1871 20, 1964.
935
00:59:04,700 --> 00:59:08,800
But you know with the prior
regime that was there sometimes
936
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:11,800
stores didn't matter, they were
Finding Diamonds in the Rough.
937
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:13,900
Really good offensive and
defensive linemen.
938
00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:21,800
Anybody of these really Sub 60
recruiting classes that you feel
939
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:27,200
are got to be key to Boston.
College potentially getting back
940
00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,800
to six wins under new regime or
even taking a step.
941
00:59:30,700 --> 00:59:32,600
Yeah, so like you were talking
about, I mean they've really
942
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:36,500
gone for more scheme fits and
things like that on their
943
00:59:36,500 --> 00:59:39,100
recruiting classes.
So I mean, obviously they wanted
944
00:59:39,100 --> 00:59:41,400
to get as High Caliber players
as they could but they were
945
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:45,100
definitely prioritizing those
scheme fits and the guy that
946
00:59:45,100 --> 00:59:47,000
really fits right into what they
were doing.
947
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,200
Previously, is the guy that's
Going to be stepping in, for AJ
948
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:52,200
Dillon this year.
And that's David Bailey.
949
00:59:52,800 --> 01:00:01,300
Another big bulldozing back.
Six 1240 had 844 yards, rushing
950
01:00:01,300 --> 01:00:05,600
and seven touchdowns last year
behind a guy that had almost
951
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:11,900
1700 yards rushing Like to run
the ball, they ran the ball a
952
01:00:11,900 --> 01:00:15,100
little bit.
So I mean they're going to look
953
01:00:15,100 --> 01:00:18,400
to him to be be the the primary
guy this year at the running
954
01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:21,200
back position.
It sounds like what they're
955
01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:25,000
going with is still going to be
a run first offense.
956
01:00:25,100 --> 01:00:30,400
I don't think they're going to
be Reinventing that part of the
957
01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:32,700
philosophy, but it's definitely
going to be a different system
958
01:00:32,700 --> 01:00:36,100
in terms of how they get that
done, another guy that we're
959
01:00:36,100 --> 01:00:39,600
going to look at as far as
Keeping that train rolling is
960
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:43,300
going to be Tyler, Vrabel.
He's, they're returning tackle,
961
01:00:43,300 --> 01:00:46,700
he's gonna have a potential to
be a high round draft pick in
962
01:00:46,700 --> 01:00:49,400
21.
They've got both their tackles
963
01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:51,800
coming back, but I think
variables got the little bit
964
01:00:51,800 --> 01:00:54,600
more of the higher ceiling of
the two.
965
01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:57,500
So that's the guy wanted to
Spotlight here.
966
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,500
Another gun that they're happy
to give back who it was injured
967
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:06,400
towards the end of the season.
Has Max Richardson, Thank you.
968
01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:10,200
Got banged up in the last couple
games of the season but he was
969
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:13,200
still all-acc second-team.
In 2019.
970
01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:17,000
Had 108 tackles 14 and a half
tackles for loss and three and a
971
01:01:17,008 --> 01:01:19,800
half sacks.
So again big contributor on
972
01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:23,100
defense and he's he can't he
decided to come back for a
973
01:01:23,100 --> 01:01:27,200
senior year despite the regime
change because he felt like
974
01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:31,100
there was still some unfinished
business for them so that's
975
01:01:31,100 --> 01:01:33,500
going to be their theme is going
to be unfinished business.
976
01:01:35,700 --> 01:01:37,900
We'll see if we'll see, if they
will do something with that,
977
01:01:37,900 --> 01:01:42,700
but, yeah, they are returning
some other guys, as well.
978
01:01:42,700 --> 01:01:45,000
So that another big one on
offense is going to be Hunter
979
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,800
long.
He was a tight end for them.
980
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:53,900
Third team, all-acc 464 yards,
receiving a two touchdowns,
981
01:01:54,300 --> 01:01:56,300
which is pretty good numbers in
a run.
982
01:01:56,300 --> 01:01:59,000
First offense, especially for a
tight end.
983
01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:05,400
He actually led the team in
receiving yards while wow, So
984
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:11,300
definitely a very run first
oriented team and the last one
985
01:02:11,300 --> 01:02:14,400
is going to be Brandon
Sebastian.
986
01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:18,600
So he started all 12 games had
to pick last year was kind of
987
01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,000
their lockdown guy.
He wasn't necessarily an elite
988
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:23,300
level but he was a guy that
could match up against the
989
01:02:23,300 --> 01:02:26,600
number one on another team and
you definitely push them and
990
01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,200
give them a run for their money.
So he's going to look to maybe
991
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:30,900
take another step for them this
year.
992
01:02:31,900 --> 01:02:34,900
Yeah, first of all, Tyler
variable.
993
01:02:34,900 --> 01:02:39,200
That is the son of former New
England Patriots, current,
994
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:42,500
Tennessee, Titans head coach.
Mike Vrabel and we talk about
995
01:02:42,500 --> 01:02:45,800
Diamonds in the Rough.
He was like three star coming
996
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:48,600
out.
And just what you just
997
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,300
mentioned.
He has a potential to be a
998
01:02:51,300 --> 01:02:54,000
lottery pretty high draft pick
next year.
999
01:02:55,200 --> 01:03:00,000
David Bailey three-star, you
know out of Maryland, he has the
1000
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,700
build six foot and a half 225
pounds on.
1001
01:03:03,100 --> 01:03:06,300
Now, you know, you mentioned a
stat line last year behind Dylan
1002
01:03:06,300 --> 01:03:10,000
but now he's going to get the
bulk of the carries, his friends
1003
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:13,000
built.
Oh, you know, he kind of don't
1004
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,600
worry about it where when we
talked about a couple of the
1005
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:20,400
guys like for Louisville.
The last time there bill is
1006
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:22,700
like, can you take this
pounding?
1007
01:03:22,700 --> 01:03:26,100
You see this guy, you definitely
feel like you could now Brian
1008
01:03:26,100 --> 01:03:29,800
under a new regime.
They you know, there's more
1009
01:03:30,700 --> 01:03:33,800
transfers and stuff happened who
are some of the guys that emerge
1010
01:03:33,800 --> 01:03:38,000
in potentially a keep them as a
bold team potentially, catapult
1011
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:41,000
them to a higher to a better
record next year.
1012
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:45,700
So the big game is going to be
filled your Kovac the transfer
1013
01:03:45,700 --> 01:03:49,000
from Notre Dame quarterback.
Set behind the e-book.
1014
01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:55,000
Now he's going to be playing
quarterback for Boston College.
1015
01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:58,300
The question here is going to be
is he going to get the waiver to
1016
01:03:58,308 --> 01:04:00,400
play in 2020?
Hmm.
1017
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,800
He will require a label to be to
become eligible for 2020 so
1018
01:04:04,800 --> 01:04:08,400
that's going to be big in terms
of their success.
1019
01:04:08,900 --> 01:04:11,700
But if he does get that waiver,
he's going to be a plug-and-play
1020
01:04:11,900 --> 01:04:16,300
starts with them, pivoting off
of that.
1021
01:04:16,300 --> 01:04:19,900
If that don't go their way,
Dennis Purcell.
1022
01:04:19,900 --> 01:04:23,500
Who was the quarterback for the
rest of the season last year?
1023
01:04:24,700 --> 01:04:28,700
After Anthony Brown, went down,
is probably going to be the guy
1024
01:04:28,700 --> 01:04:30,900
that's going to step into that
quarterback role again.
1025
01:04:30,900 --> 01:04:36,400
This year played in 12 games and
started, six head 896 yards
1026
01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:40,400
passing and 9 touchdowns the
question is going to be is, you
1027
01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:43,800
know, having a full Camp is that
going to be enough for him to be
1028
01:04:43,800 --> 01:04:45,800
able to step in that role and do
a little bit more than he did
1029
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:50,400
last year and more.
And unfortunate situation
1030
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:54,500
closing out the year.
And then we got two other guys
1031
01:04:54,500 --> 01:04:59,900
that are going to be pretty big
in terms of whether or not BC
1032
01:04:59,900 --> 01:05:02,300
has some success in the big ones
going to be as Kobe, why he's
1033
01:05:02,300 --> 01:05:04,800
the wide receiver.
Yeah, actually.
1034
01:05:04,800 --> 01:05:08,900
Initially entered the transfer
portal when the coaching change
1035
01:05:08,900 --> 01:05:12,300
was coming through there.
But decided to return to Boston,
1036
01:05:12,300 --> 01:05:14,900
College, and kind of see how
things go.
1037
01:05:16,100 --> 01:05:18,500
He had 434.
Yards, receiving and five
1038
01:05:18,500 --> 01:05:22,200
touchdowns in 2019.
Seems kind of the the number to
1039
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:25,700
Target in the offense.
Again, those low numbers might
1040
01:05:25,700 --> 01:05:28,800
go up depending on what happens
with with the quarterback
1041
01:05:28,800 --> 01:05:34,200
position.
So we'll see and then, Isaiah
1042
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:37,500
McDuffie is the other one.
He was trending towards being a
1043
01:05:37,500 --> 01:05:42,500
playmaker before missing most of
the 2019 season with an injury,
1044
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:46,100
he's going to be very key in
terms of whether or not, they
1045
01:05:46,100 --> 01:05:49,000
can bounce back.
And have some success this year.
1046
01:05:50,100 --> 01:05:54,000
Yeah, well your coverage is
Deke.
1047
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:57,300
It's not even a question if he
can get his waiver or not.
1048
01:05:57,300 --> 01:06:01,000
But again being in the first
year of a new regime, it doesn't
1049
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:03,600
hurt if he doesn't get it,
because he'll be there next year
1050
01:06:03,900 --> 01:06:07,900
while he was a four-star, top
120 profit.
1051
01:06:07,900 --> 01:06:11,000
When he came out in 2018, will
definitely get for recruiting
1052
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:14,400
presentable.
Then having some kind of a
1053
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:19,300
program like the Blue Bloods and
disrupted a you go there.
1054
01:06:19,300 --> 01:06:21,900
You don't get The job now.
Bushkin, trench.
1055
01:06:21,900 --> 01:06:26,200
Well, I need to go somewhere
else to find so I think that's
1056
01:06:26,200 --> 01:06:30,300
the key now.
Run clearly there were a ton of
1057
01:06:30,300 --> 01:06:33,000
changes.
The beastly they fired Steve
1058
01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:37,500
Adagio after the victims with
cooler and we hired Warpath lie
1059
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:43,300
haffley comes from Ohio State.
He was only there one season as
1060
01:06:43,300 --> 01:06:47,700
a defensive coordinator prior to
that, he had spent six seasons
1061
01:06:47,700 --> 01:06:51,500
and secondary coach in the NFL
for the for Honor the Browns and
1062
01:06:51,500 --> 01:06:54,500
the buck.
When he had collegiately coach
1063
01:06:54,500 --> 01:06:58,700
since 2001 before that including
at Pitt and Rutger, so kind of
1064
01:06:58,700 --> 01:07:05,800
up in that multiple territory,
couple of his three hires.
1065
01:07:06,300 --> 01:07:10,500
The first is Frank.
Cignetti Nettie had been leaked
1066
01:07:10,500 --> 01:07:14,900
from 2012 to 2018 primarily as a
quarterbacks coach units in one
1067
01:07:14,900 --> 01:07:17,600
season.
In 2015, is the Rams offensive
1068
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:21,000
coordinator last time.
He Orion will, last time you
1069
01:07:21,008 --> 01:07:25,400
coach was 2018 with the Packers.
Now, he did have some Collegiate
1070
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:30,600
styles on that, the most notable
for Virginia Tech would be when
1071
01:07:30,600 --> 01:07:35,400
he was the offensive coordinator
at UNC in 2006.
1072
01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:41,500
Where we be 135 10 Again.
NFL guy, you're looking at a
1073
01:07:41,508 --> 01:07:45,200
pro-style offense, Rove.
Not much of a transition.
1074
01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:49,700
Probably for, you know, the
offense in a lot of ways.
1075
01:07:49,900 --> 01:07:55,300
Um, now his experiences, he is
the new defensive coordinator.
1076
01:07:55,300 --> 01:08:01,000
This is his fourth defense of
coordinating job, at any level
1077
01:08:01,200 --> 01:08:08,200
arm football.
Wow, we do for what T mokuba.
1078
01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:13,600
He had, he done so much
basically on back and coaching
1079
01:08:13,900 --> 01:08:17,100
most notably 2018 with
Mississippi State, under Joe
1080
01:08:17,100 --> 01:08:19,500
Moorhead.
And then he was in the league
1081
01:08:19,500 --> 01:08:23,200
with the jingles in 2019.
He had also spent some time with
1082
01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:28,000
halfway with you as with the
49ers so he has a connection
1083
01:08:28,000 --> 01:08:33,100
there but overall like you know
this is pretty big but again
1084
01:08:33,100 --> 01:08:35,899
you've got a head coach has a
higher defensive coordinator.
1085
01:08:36,500 --> 01:08:40,300
How much is bringing some like
cignetti who has done it
1086
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:44,100
numerous times where it's just
like, listen you focus on there.
1087
01:08:44,100 --> 01:08:49,300
I'm going to hop between get
used to what he needs to do.
1088
01:08:49,800 --> 01:08:53,800
Being and all this stuff, maybe
it should be a third of a meter
1089
01:08:54,000 --> 01:08:59,800
long.
With a plea but we'll save the.
1090
01:08:59,800 --> 01:09:03,600
One thing he will do is he did
retain Rich, canal through the
1091
01:09:03,899 --> 01:09:07,300
waters, even kicked under 1000.
Yo while he did so with an
1092
01:09:07,300 --> 01:09:11,899
interim head coach in the bowl
game after we value is Karan and
1093
01:09:11,899 --> 01:09:13,100
now he's going to be a running
back.
1094
01:09:13,100 --> 01:09:15,800
Coach had that on the staff in
2016?
1095
01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:18,800
We gots a good move.
You keep a whole nother from the
1096
01:09:18,800 --> 01:09:21,300
prior regime.
Again, it's surprising that
1097
01:09:21,300 --> 01:09:25,800
really, it wasn't bad.
So it's one of the things NG
1098
01:09:25,808 --> 01:09:29,800
we're probably helps.
We staff get to know the guys
1099
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:31,899
quicker and all that.
I like it.
1100
01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:36,100
But I mean you kind of see and
you see, it's A Change.
1101
01:09:36,100 --> 01:09:37,200
Would you be shocked?
What they want?
1102
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:42,500
666 again, run?
No, not at all 30.
1103
01:09:42,500 --> 01:09:44,000
Yeah.
All right.
1104
01:09:44,100 --> 01:09:52,399
Well, Brian last but not least.
All right, the Miami Hurricane
1105
01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:57,100
heard that song today?
Well If you from back in the day
1106
01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:03,900
returning, seven offensive
starters for defensive starters,
1107
01:10:03,900 --> 01:10:07,200
they definitely were a really
good defensive team last year
1108
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:09,600
and have a feeling Brian.
When you go through this key
1109
01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:14,100
departures, we might have a few
sense of players.
1110
01:10:14,100 --> 01:10:17,500
But who are some of the key guys
that are gone from Miami's
1111
01:10:17,500 --> 01:10:19,700
roster this year?
All right, so we're going to
1112
01:10:19,800 --> 01:10:23,500
kind of be the highlights going
to be skill position, players
1113
01:10:23,500 --> 01:10:27,000
and defensive players.
That's what they lost.
1114
01:10:27,000 --> 01:10:30,300
So the big one is one of the big
ones is going to be KJ, Osborne
1115
01:10:31,300 --> 01:10:34,600
wide receiver, had 50 catches
and 547 yards.
1116
01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:38,300
Last season, he actually got
picked in the fifth round by
1117
01:10:38,300 --> 01:10:40,800
Minnesota.
So you got a draft pick right
1118
01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:45,000
out the gate here.
Definitely showed more potential
1119
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:48,400
than his stats, she was, but a
lot of that had to do with the
1120
01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:52,200
fact that there was inconsistent
quarterback, play in horrid
1121
01:10:52,200 --> 01:10:54,600
offensive line play from Miami
last year.
1122
01:10:57,000 --> 01:11:01,600
So that's the big thing there.
Another one, we got a wide
1123
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,600
receiver, Jeff, Thomas
Speedster.
1124
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:07,400
Kind of more of a down.
The field threat he was picked
1125
01:11:07,400 --> 01:11:13,500
up by the New England Patriots
as an undrafted free agent so
1126
01:11:13,500 --> 01:11:17,100
but you two key wide receivers
are gone for them and I'll go
1127
01:11:17,100 --> 01:11:20,400
ahead and highlight the other
skill position player on offense
1128
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:24,600
and that's deejay Dallas.
Running back for them last year.
1129
01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:28,800
Got picked by the Seahawks The
fourth round again, not
1130
01:11:29,300 --> 01:11:33,000
impressive numbers, good
numbers, not great numbers, 693
1131
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:35,500
yards, rushing and eight
touchdowns and 2019.
1132
01:11:36,100 --> 01:11:39,600
But again he was playing behind
pretty bad offensive line last
1133
01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:42,900
season.
And so that that's that's the
1134
01:11:42,900 --> 01:11:46,000
big thing that they're going to
look to improve this year.
1135
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:48,600
I think is trying to shore up
that Alden to live but those are
1136
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:51,900
the skill position guys they're
little they're losing on the
1137
01:11:51,900 --> 01:11:55,900
defensive side of the ball.
Three big time play.
1138
01:11:56,000 --> 01:11:58,100
Yours are the guys I'm going to
highlight here that the first
1139
01:11:58,100 --> 01:12:01,600
one being Jonathan Garvin
defensive end and outside.
1140
01:12:01,600 --> 01:12:04,300
Linebacker drafting the seventh
round by the Packers.
1141
01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:10,000
He did see his playing time
diminish at the end of 2019 but
1142
01:12:10,500 --> 01:12:13,700
still tallied, some good numbers
and had some big plays but
1143
01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:17,800
There's a reason for that, that
we're going to get to later.
1144
01:12:18,800 --> 01:12:22,300
Oh yeah.
But The next guy went to
1145
01:12:22,300 --> 01:12:24,600
highlight is going to be trajan
Brandy's.
1146
01:12:25,800 --> 01:12:30,400
All ACC honorable mention
corner, he did play corner and
1147
01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:33,100
safety while I was at Miami, but
finished his career as a corner
1148
01:12:33,800 --> 01:12:35,900
and was actually picked up by
the Steelers as an undrafted
1149
01:12:35,900 --> 01:12:38,600
free agent.
So NFL caliber Talent there that
1150
01:12:38,600 --> 01:12:42,000
they're missing on that side of
the ball this year and the last
1151
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:44,500
guy, big one here, Shaq
quarterman.
1152
01:12:44,800 --> 01:12:48,000
Oh yeah, fourth-round draft pick
by the Jags.
1153
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:52,900
Four-year starter at linebacker
for Them to time first team,
1154
01:12:52,900 --> 01:12:58,100
all-acc hundred seven tackles
and 15 tackles for loss in 2019.
1155
01:12:59,300 --> 01:13:01,900
Oh yeah, man.
I mean, you start mentioning
1156
01:13:01,900 --> 01:13:06,500
those defensive players and
again that offense last year was
1157
01:13:07,300 --> 01:13:09,800
not a good offense that defense
was good.
1158
01:13:09,900 --> 01:13:15,300
So we send that much talent.
Where do they finished this
1159
01:13:15,300 --> 01:13:16,100
year?
Who knows?
1160
01:13:16,100 --> 01:13:21,200
Now clearly, it's Miami, they
always recruit well, 2017 or 12
1161
01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:26,700
Class of 2018 a top-10 class 20
1927, green chlorophyll, a lot
1162
01:13:26,700 --> 01:13:32,400
of talents still there with them
but by and they've got a lot to
1163
01:13:32,400 --> 01:13:36,000
replace especially on defense.
And again, some very productive
1164
01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:38,800
Jeff Thomas.
Even though he didn't produce
1165
01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:43,200
that, dude has speed, if nothing
else, it major.
1166
01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:46,800
Safeties play further back off
the line which could open things
1167
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:49,000
up.
But who are some of the guys
1168
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:52,600
coming back?
So I'll start with the first one
1169
01:13:52,600 --> 01:13:56,700
and there's again I said there
was a reason why Jonathan Garvin
1170
01:13:56,700 --> 01:14:00,200
saw some of his snap count go
down in 2019.
1171
01:14:00,700 --> 01:14:05,200
Well the reason for that is that
Gregory Rousseau became debt
1172
01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:10,400
dude.
So redshirt freshman did he
1173
01:14:10,407 --> 01:14:12,100
would start the he wasn't a
starter at the beginning the
1174
01:14:12,100 --> 01:14:16,900
season but just blast on the
scene in 2019 and finished with
1175
01:14:16,900 --> 01:14:23,200
15 and a half sacks.
As a as a redshirt freshman that
1176
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:26,700
was second in the country in
terms of total sex only behind
1177
01:14:26,700 --> 01:14:32,600
the chase young, woo, baby
number three, picking the grass.
1178
01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:39,400
Yeah no big deal at all there.
And he was also being ACC
1179
01:14:39,400 --> 01:14:42,200
Defensive Rookie of the Year for
for those numbers.
1180
01:14:43,000 --> 01:14:46,400
So if there's any Improvement by
this guy, you better look at the
1181
01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:49,900
hell out because that's going to
be a monster too.
1182
01:14:50,100 --> 01:14:54,400
To contain on defense there
another key defensive guy that
1183
01:14:54,400 --> 01:14:56,800
got coming back is going to be
DJ IV.
1184
01:14:57,800 --> 01:15:00,400
He actually led the team in
picks at quarterback last year
1185
01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:03,600
with three and he's going to be
looking to move into more of
1186
01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:05,800
that Alpha Dog in the secondary
role.
1187
01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:12,300
Now the band he's departed in
the draft there and staying on
1188
01:15:12,300 --> 01:15:17,000
the defensive side of the ball
Durbin Hall, Junior, safety.
1189
01:15:17,500 --> 01:15:19,900
He had sixty six tackles last
year.
1190
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,400
Force from one interception
really known as kind of an in
1191
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:26,900
the Box guy, really good tackler
in the open field.
1192
01:15:27,500 --> 01:15:31,500
He's going to be key for their
that defense to really continue
1193
01:15:31,500 --> 01:15:35,800
their trajectory and stay at the
top of their game because it's
1194
01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:37,800
going to be interesting to see
what happens on the offensive
1195
01:15:37,800 --> 01:15:41,200
side of the ball.
Especially with offensive line
1196
01:15:41,200 --> 01:15:44,800
but in terms of what they've got
coming back there, the big one
1197
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:49,000
is navon Donaldson senior.
He's their guard coming back.
1198
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:55,800
Really Only rock solid starter
all season last year and he's
1199
01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:58,700
going to be key to get that
offensive going.
1200
01:15:58,700 --> 01:16:00,700
Especially the fact that they've
got a new quarterback, that's
1201
01:16:00,700 --> 01:16:03,200
going to be playing this year
and they got to keep him healthy
1202
01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:06,900
because he's going to be running
the ball a lot more than what
1203
01:16:06,900 --> 01:16:11,900
they were doing last year.
Yeah, you mentioned.
1204
01:16:11,900 --> 01:16:16,200
It's kind of hairy thing when
you're talking about water back,
1205
01:16:17,000 --> 01:16:20,900
some new system which I'll touch
on later but you have one
1206
01:16:21,300 --> 01:16:27,200
startling offense in one point
you know, no.
1207
01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:32,600
In Donaldson flooding the zone
right hop on a plane Hometown
1208
01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:39,600
guy so um, you know but you
already know you already.
1209
01:16:39,700 --> 01:16:42,900
Gotta lay the groundwork for
weird who is got to be the
1210
01:16:42,900 --> 01:16:46,300
emerging Talent, you know, the
guy that has to step up and
1211
01:16:46,300 --> 01:16:49,700
they're going to have any
success on offense other than
1212
01:16:49,700 --> 01:16:53,100
the offensive line is going to
be their new quarterback, their
1213
01:16:53,100 --> 01:16:57,800
King transfer from Houston.
He was a complete Force there
1214
01:16:58,300 --> 01:17:03,300
while he was in Houston, 4925
yards passing and 50 touchdowns
1215
01:17:03,300 --> 01:17:09,600
against 10 picks ran for another
14, 21 and 28 touchdowns 34
1216
01:17:09,700 --> 01:17:11,500
Game.
So if you do the math, there
1217
01:17:12,000 --> 01:17:14,100
you're looking at some pretty
damn good numbers.
1218
01:17:14,400 --> 01:17:19,900
We have quarterback position and
that's going to be big for Miami
1219
01:17:19,900 --> 01:17:22,800
because again, their offense was
pretty atrocious last year.
1220
01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:25,900
Again, inconsistent quarterback
play.
1221
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:28,100
Some of that was on the
offensive line and some of that
1222
01:17:28,100 --> 01:17:31,000
was just inconsistent play
across the board.
1223
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:35,900
So he's going to be the key for
that offense and to help out
1224
01:17:35,900 --> 01:17:39,500
there, they're going to need a
guy like Zion Nelson there left.
1225
01:17:39,700 --> 01:17:43,200
Tackle to take another step.
Now this is a guy that's kind of
1226
01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:47,600
thrown to the Wolves last year.
True freshman.
1227
01:17:47,900 --> 01:17:53,600
Hey, you're going to be starting
left tackle, have fun, and there
1228
01:17:53,600 --> 01:17:56,600
were some Growing Pains start
the season, but he kind of close
1229
01:17:56,600 --> 01:18:01,000
things out pretty well.
So, you know, numbers wise, in
1230
01:18:01,000 --> 01:18:04,400
terms of how we were great
offensive line, not good in
1231
01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:08,800
terms of average score but had
some good numbers in terms of
1232
01:18:08,808 --> 01:18:11,300
how you would grade.
As the season closed out there.
1233
01:18:12,100 --> 01:18:16,200
So those are the big guys.
They're also on the offensive
1234
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:21,900
side, Cameron Harris.
He's going to be looking to be
1235
01:18:21,900 --> 01:18:24,000
kind of that one, a running
back.
1236
01:18:24,300 --> 01:18:27,400
They're probably going to have a
shared backfield, but he's going
1237
01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:31,700
to be the one, a guy, he's going
to get some help because King is
1238
01:18:31,700 --> 01:18:35,600
going to be carrying the ball a
lot more than they have in the
1239
01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:37,500
past.
So you're going to get a little
1240
01:18:37,500 --> 01:18:39,200
bit of help there because
there's going to be some
1241
01:18:39,200 --> 01:18:41,400
options.
Elements there and threat for
1242
01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:43,500
the quarterback to take off.
So I think he's going to have a
1243
01:18:43,500 --> 01:18:47,100
little bit of a of a better Ally
just by default even if the
1244
01:18:47,100 --> 01:18:49,300
offensive line isn't
significantly improved.
1245
01:18:49,900 --> 01:18:53,200
And let's go to the the
defensive side of the ball.
1246
01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:59,400
And this one's going to sting
guys, Quincy Roche transfer from
1247
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:05,000
Temple.
He was hours from being a hokie
1248
01:19:05,300 --> 01:19:11,600
hours, Dan missions.
I think I mean I think it
1249
01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:15,300
missions kind of screwed the
pooch again but I think there
1250
01:19:15,308 --> 01:19:18,100
was also a big lack of
communication there as well.
1251
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:23,300
So I'm not going to place blame
on the kid.
1252
01:19:23,300 --> 01:19:27,000
It is what it is but he was ours
from becoming a hokey and then
1253
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:28,900
wasn't.
So it is what it is.
1254
01:19:28,900 --> 01:19:31,300
But he's going to be a big-time
contributor on that defense of
1255
01:19:31,300 --> 01:19:36,200
wind and is going to really be
looked at to kind of step in and
1256
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:39,900
take over, you know, some of the
role opposite Gregory.
1257
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:45,200
Or so, but that's going to be a
really hard to handle two-headed
1258
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:48,600
monster at defensive in there.
Yeah, absolutely.
1259
01:19:49,900 --> 01:19:53,100
The Nelson kid getting thrown
into the fire as a freshman.
1260
01:19:53,100 --> 01:19:56,200
Well, that happens sometimes.
Usually don't see it happen when
1261
01:19:56,200 --> 01:20:01,500
team prepares as well as Miami
and in the Eric King, well he
1262
01:20:01,500 --> 01:20:04,500
made his choice and run with
what they happen in the coaching
1263
01:20:04,500 --> 01:20:06,200
staff.
It kind of all mates, weren't
1264
01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:09,000
you know, first of all, Manny
Diaz has been there.
1265
01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:12,200
One season brought On the hot
seat, he was one of the coaches
1266
01:20:12,200 --> 01:20:16,300
Dennis without about today as
he's got to get his shit in
1267
01:20:16,300 --> 01:20:17,500
order.
If he can fired.
1268
01:20:17,500 --> 01:20:20,600
After this year, he already
jumped and went ahead and said,
1269
01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:22,800
we're changing things
completely.
1270
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:27,200
So we fight any nosed any higher
rental, flash, red.
1271
01:20:27,200 --> 01:20:30,300
And lastly coming out of SMU
where he was under Sunny Dykes.
1272
01:20:30,300 --> 01:20:32,600
That's Airaid 101.
Oh yeah.
1273
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:37,000
Along with that clearly they
made, you know, changes to the
1274
01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:39,900
offensive line Garvin Justice
can observe.
1275
01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:44,300
Um, UNLV guy actually have been
a pretty successful D2 head
1276
01:20:44,300 --> 01:20:47,600
coach at Concord, but that
wasn't the last change they
1277
01:20:47,600 --> 01:20:51,600
made.
They didn't made their wide
1278
01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:54,600
receivers coach, Taylor start on
the field who could job at Penn
1279
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:58,800
State.
Now, Rob Likens, who is under
1280
01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:03,000
her mother bird, ASU, he comes
over, he was actually being
1281
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:05,300
offensive coordinators
quarterback coach there.
1282
01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:11,600
Now, again, Likens comes from
that Sonny, Tree where he was
1283
01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:13,700
with him at Cal and Louisiana
Tech.
1284
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:17,700
So they're going air raid.
Now, I'm going to ask you the
1285
01:21:17,700 --> 01:21:21,000
crime.
Danny knows was a pro-style
1286
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:25,600
coordinator.
The old offensive line code
1287
01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:27,900
clearly, polymorpha proust
offensive line kit.
1288
01:21:28,100 --> 01:21:30,500
Then they're going 18, dormant
air raid.
1289
01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:35,000
You kind of had to deal with
this transitioning from high
1290
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:40,600
school to college.
Tell me, is it going to be
1291
01:21:40,600 --> 01:21:43,900
easier or is the are Kings going
to run for his life for them to
1292
01:21:43,900 --> 01:21:47,100
win games?
I think there's going to be some
1293
01:21:47,100 --> 01:21:50,200
of that.
The biggest jump is going to be
1294
01:21:50,800 --> 01:21:56,300
a complete change in terminology
and verbiage for offensive line
1295
01:21:56,300 --> 01:22:00,900
calls Playbook everything.
So that's going to be the
1296
01:22:00,900 --> 01:22:04,400
biggest thing for, you know,
five to seven guys, to pick up
1297
01:22:04,900 --> 01:22:07,700
and gel, especially with the
covid situation.
1298
01:22:07,700 --> 01:22:10,300
We're dealing with where they've
had some limited offseason to
1299
01:22:10,300 --> 01:22:14,400
work on those things and kind of
get those, some of those mental
1300
01:22:14,400 --> 01:22:18,600
reps and all the Spring reps in
place so that's going to be key.
1301
01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:22,100
And again changing the
philosophy you know there's some
1302
01:22:22,100 --> 01:22:26,100
guys that are more built to you
put their hand in the dirt and
1303
01:22:26,100 --> 01:22:30,400
just Mall guys over and this is
going to be a little bit of a
1304
01:22:30,500 --> 01:22:36,400
more finesse type offense.
It's not something that's going
1305
01:22:36,400 --> 01:22:38,700
to be a smooth transition for
everybody.
1306
01:22:38,700 --> 01:22:44,300
I think anybody that has pretty
decent past set and has had some
1307
01:22:44,300 --> 01:22:48,100
experience in these Is spread
type offense is probably a high
1308
01:22:48,100 --> 01:22:52,600
school level which is primarily
running spread now probably
1309
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:55,600
won't have his heart of a
transition as, as some other
1310
01:22:55,600 --> 01:22:59,900
guys, but it's going to be a
think a learning curve for them
1311
01:22:59,900 --> 01:23:03,000
and it might take them a few
games to really see that
1312
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,000
offensive line gel if it ever
does.
1313
01:23:06,600 --> 01:23:08,600
Got your man.
Well, we shall see.
1314
01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:12,400
It's just kind of funny Diaz is
on the hot seat anymore.
1315
01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:17,200
Looks saves his job because he
have to win the coastal.
1316
01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:19,800
Does he have to win 10 games?
Even if he doesn't win the
1317
01:23:19,800 --> 01:23:24,200
coastal, or is it, you know,
marginal Improvement?
1318
01:23:24,200 --> 01:23:28,000
Because now he can lie say,
listen, we're trying to change
1319
01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:30,400
the culture.
Often people here, from what
1320
01:23:30,400 --> 01:23:35,100
we've done for you supposed,
I'll go are ready Fred, you know
1321
01:23:35,100 --> 01:23:38,700
it's It's just his thing.
Say, maybe I can get myself to
1322
01:23:38,700 --> 01:23:41,100
more years.
If I say, hey, working offensive
1323
01:23:41,100 --> 01:23:43,300
philosophy.
You gotta give me a few years
1324
01:23:43,700 --> 01:23:47,700
before I can turn it up.
Yeah, I think that, you know,
1325
01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:50,800
this is a case of good
recruiting working against him
1326
01:23:51,400 --> 01:23:55,300
because when you have good
recruits and you're still only
1327
01:23:55,300 --> 01:23:58,000
winning, you know, six to eight
games.
1328
01:23:58,600 --> 01:24:01,100
Hmm.
You know, people start asking a
1329
01:24:01,108 --> 01:24:05,100
lot more questions.
True, what are you doing
1330
01:24:05,100 --> 01:24:06,300
tonight?
Translate this.
1331
01:24:06,500 --> 01:24:13,000
To the field.
I think you probably know I'm
1332
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:15,700
not, I'm no, Miami apologist by
any means, but I think he was
1333
01:24:15,700 --> 01:24:19,400
probably raked over the coals, a
little harder than he should be
1334
01:24:19,400 --> 01:24:22,300
in year one.
Especially following the caliber
1335
01:24:22,300 --> 01:24:28,000
of Coach, he was following at
the same time, You know, when
1336
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:30,000
you've got talent you got to,
you got to put out some
1337
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:35,200
something better than six wins
and they had the talent and it
1338
01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:38,900
just it just never quite gentle
the way they wanted to but I
1339
01:24:38,900 --> 01:24:42,600
think going are rate is going to
help them on several fronts.
1340
01:24:43,500 --> 01:24:48,500
One air raid takes out some of
the stress on the offensive
1341
01:24:48,500 --> 01:24:51,000
line.
The ball is getting snapped and
1342
01:24:51,000 --> 01:24:54,200
it's getting out of the
quarterbacks hands quicker and
1343
01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:57,000
The Playmakers are responsible
for getting the yards after the
1344
01:24:57,000 --> 01:24:58,100
catch.
Each and getting the ball
1345
01:24:58,100 --> 01:25:00,900
downfield.
So that's going to take some
1346
01:25:00,900 --> 01:25:04,700
pressure off the offensive line,
you're probably see more Zone
1347
01:25:04,700 --> 01:25:11,100
type blocking schemes versus
manhole man or or Gap style
1348
01:25:11,100 --> 01:25:16,100
coverage got style protections.
So it'll be interesting to see
1349
01:25:16,500 --> 01:25:19,100
how they, how they go with that.
But yeah.
1350
01:25:19,100 --> 01:25:22,100
Usually with those are Aid
systems, it's a zone or some
1351
01:25:22,100 --> 01:25:26,200
sort of slide protection.
They're only going head-on hat
1352
01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:28,100
for five and seven.
Drops anything.
1353
01:25:28,100 --> 01:25:31,600
That's the three-step.
They're just Taking a gap or
1354
01:25:31,608 --> 01:25:34,600
taking an area and trying to
stop the guy before the ball
1355
01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:36,700
gets out.
Yeah, man.
1356
01:25:37,900 --> 01:25:41,100
All right.
So that closes the capital teams
1357
01:25:41,500 --> 01:25:45,800
but we'll be protecting the
language here from the more you
1358
01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:51,100
all these four opponent Based on
the time of year, we play on the
1359
01:25:51,100 --> 01:25:57,000
makes you mad - oh man, most
nervous.
1360
01:25:58,700 --> 01:26:00,400
I'm going to have to go with
Miami.
1361
01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:05,000
Just because of having king of
quarterback and the fact that
1362
01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:08,200
they are a good defense and I
think they're going to be kind
1363
01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:12,700
of still in that same same level
just because of the guys they've
1364
01:26:12,700 --> 01:26:16,100
got coming back and some of the
freshmen that we saw making some
1365
01:26:16,100 --> 01:26:21,200
big moves last year.
So you know, they always are a
1366
01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:26,600
team that with the Rivalry.
It can go either way and some of
1367
01:26:26,608 --> 01:26:28,300
the unknown factor gives me a
little bit.
1368
01:26:28,400 --> 01:26:32,000
Pause, but I think if if they're
the same Miami, we've seen the
1369
01:26:32,000 --> 01:26:34,500
last few years.
I don't, I don't think they're
1370
01:26:34,500 --> 01:26:37,700
going to be as much of a
problem, but that unknown factor
1371
01:26:37,700 --> 01:26:41,000
has just given me some pause.
Yeah, I'm with you.
1372
01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:43,600
I think Miami to is the one
we're worried about mom.
1373
01:26:43,600 --> 01:26:46,100
Will you be careful?
You don't get them early.
1374
01:26:46,100 --> 01:26:49,900
I mean, they are the other 11th
game of 12 in the schedule.
1375
01:26:49,900 --> 01:26:54,500
So if they do start yelling, you
have the talent they do, have to
1376
01:26:54,500 --> 01:26:57,600
come with rain.
But you know that the half full
1377
01:26:57,600 --> 01:27:03,500
of for full Lane, you know, the
thing with of an important
1378
01:27:04,400 --> 01:27:07,500
thing.
But I'm with you on Miami, man
1379
01:27:08,000 --> 01:27:11,700
prize, is there anything else we
need to Hit anything break while
1380
01:27:11,700 --> 01:27:15,000
we were sitting here recording
on the one with Paloma she, no,
1381
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:17,800
I didn't see anything.
Come through buddy.
1382
01:27:18,600 --> 01:27:21,200
Alright.
