I GOT YOU

1
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,520
So we got to know the enemy
again.

2
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,720
It's like red and white.
I want to go see what he's got

3
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,920
to say for us when we get in
there.

4
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:12,120
So now let's tell the truth,
because we all lied our asses

5
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,800
off last Wednesday night.
What were we supposed to do,

6
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,000
man?
What were we supposed to do?

7
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:19,200
Oh no.
Talent.

8
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,440
What were we supposed to do?
I did it by design.

9
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,880
I knew what was going to happen.
I just wanted to throw them off

10
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:28,360
all.
Right, Well, well, let's, let's

11
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,640
tell the truth and let's talk
about what went well.

12
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:35,360
And y'all, for the first time in
damn near 3 years, Virginia Tech

13
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,840
wins A1 score game.
Hey, clap it up, man.

14
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:44,440
Come on, clap it up.
We need to get out of clap, man.

15
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,880
I don't think people understand.
Well, I do know chat.

16
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,440
They understand.
You guys understand how big that

17
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,680
win was.
Just giving us two wins for the

18
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,360
year.
Some people said we would only

19
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,440
get one.
We got a lot going on, man.

20
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,040
We just fired a coach, you know,
We just beat Wofford.

21
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:09,199
Who is Wofford?
And then you go into North

22
00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:11,720
Carolina State, you're going to
Raleigh, you're going to their

23
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,840
house.
Nobody has confidence in you.

24
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,400
I know I did and I'm going to
speak for myself.

25
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,000
Didn't have any confidence in
getting going and getting a win.

26
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,760
You got people that are kind of
in the portal, kind of not.

27
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,760
Some of them are already in the
portal.

28
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:33,040
We don't know what the coaches
are thinking, but I have never

29
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:38,320
seen, and I'm a knock on
something since Pry has been

30
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,000
here.
I don't think with my eyes I've

31
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,080
seen that much energy on the
sidelines.

32
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,000
I ain't going to talk about the
gameplay going and watching the

33
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,000
game.
I watched it about three times.

34
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:56,600
The sideline was electric.
You know, I seen, I seen Pray

35
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,280
Pearson hop off the sideline and
start twerking.

36
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,560
I mean, what's going on?
We got all kinds of stuff going

37
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,520
on on the sideline.
I've seen money jumping.

38
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,160
You know, it just, it feels good
that you've seen somebody give a

39
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,760
damn about the game.
Curtis, what you think, man?

40
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:22,720
Well, that, that it was just, I
mean, we were texting all during

41
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,560
the night.
I was sitting here with my son

42
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:30,240
watching a game and it was just
I, I don't know, because in in

43
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,680
those situations over the last
three years and even some part

44
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,560
of even before that last, the
Leon against Liberty, it was

45
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,040
always like, we're going to
screw this up.

46
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,000
Literally that is going through
my head.

47
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,880
We're going to screw this up, or
we're going to.

48
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,240
Probably I'm going to throw this
in.

49
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,520
I'm going to throw this in
Curtis right quick and let and

50
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,480
I'm going to come back to you.
My daughter's birthday with my

51
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:50,800
daughter.
My daughter's birthday was

52
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,680
Saturday, so I was out.
So everybody's watching the

53
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,560
Alabama, Georgia game.
We're at some little bar here

54
00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,240
and I'm looking at it on my
phone.

55
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:04,520
And we punt that ball away and I
turn my phone off and I text

56
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,400
Curtis and I say I know how this
ends.

57
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,400
And I.
You did and and and and.

58
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,120
I just shook my hand when I saw
that text.

59
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,640
Brian, you saw it.
I said, I know how this ends and

60
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,480
couple of things are going on,
but I think somebody came on and

61
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:21,920
said we did it and I was like,
did what?

62
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,360
We we lost it.
I knew we we gave it away in my

63
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,880
mind, but now I'm going to throw
it back to you, Curtis.

64
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,640
I text that, hey, I know how
this ends.

65
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,640
So that means we punt the ball
away at the end of the game and

66
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,800
then what we do, Curtis, what
happens?

67
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,880
Well, we make the stops, we put
them in a fourth down situation

68
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,960
and and a lot of people say why
didn't you run Hollywood

69
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,280
Smothers day or why didn't you
bring the Wilson kid in?

70
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,680
Because we had stopped them a
couple times on 3rd and shorts.

71
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,160
We stopped them on 1/4 and
short.

72
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,920
Caleb's basically the D line
wiped out Brian.

73
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,760
You probably remember this play
better and you probably can we

74
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,800
wipe it out.
Caleb Spencer comes in back door

75
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,600
meets mothers in the hole stops
and we get the ball back.

76
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,760
We had them mentally beat on
that.

77
00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:08,920
They were sitting there fourth
and one where it's like you

78
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,160
should run the ball and they're
like, now they stopped us like 3

79
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:12,280
or 4 times.
We can't do that.

80
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,680
And when Christian Ellis played
that thing, perfect.

81
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,320
I mean, shout out to Christian
Ellis, first of all.

82
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,880
Shout out to everyone wearing #8
on Virginia.

83
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:26,760
Tech yeah, absolutely.
But when he made that play, it

84
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:32,640
was just like yes, like yes, I I
had not felt that good in a long

85
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,360
time, especially being A1 score
game.

86
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,240
Blowouts are fun.
A1 and A1 score game.

87
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,240
It ain't nothing like it.
All right, I will.

88
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,360
I will say something real quick.
This is going to be a little bit

89
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:47,160
of pat myself on the back and I
said it this morning on on big

90
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,280
dog sports talk.
Rewind back to the spring game.

91
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,880
I was there, I watched, I came
back, I talked to it, I talked

92
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,720
about it.
When I was talking about safety

93
00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:01,960
play, who did I say that I liked
the most that I was?

94
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,360
I was like, this guy was out
there, he was making some plays.

95
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:06,680
You did #8.
It was Christian Ellis it.

96
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:07,280
Was Christian.
Ellis.

97
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,560
You did, Christian.
Ellis So let me.

98
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,800
So let me and.
He has been he's played more the

99
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,320
last two weeks.
I'm excited to see that.

100
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,480
And I don't know if it was we
paid these other guys more so

101
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:22,640
they they got in and now that
somebody's gone, the rules.

102
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,880
Are different.
I like I like I like where you

103
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,120
going right there, Brian, hold
on, hold on till you talk

104
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,080
because I want to I want to
unpack a little bit because I

105
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,280
know we got to we got to go, but
we got to talk about it because

106
00:06:33,280 --> 00:06:37,600
the chat is here and I know they
want to hear what my man Curtis

107
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,200
has to say and you too, Brian,
because you brought it up.

108
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,000
I don't want to keep dumping on
pry.

109
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,080
I I really don't because I think
pry is a good guy.

110
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,720
He's a bad coach.
He's a good guy over the last

111
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:55,000
two weeks, just like Brian just
said, My God, that's my brother.

112
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,880
Over the last two weeks, we've
seen #8 on the field more.

113
00:06:59,960 --> 00:07:02,360
And again, I know when you see
somebody playing against

114
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,400
somebody like Wofford, you're
like, whatever, you know?

115
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:10,960
But then we go to North Carolina
State and you see #8 flying all

116
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,440
over the field, flying all over
the field.

117
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,680
And then we got to throw in the
freshman on the field.

118
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:24,320
I mean wreaking havoc 14 and 16,
Robinson and and and Chambers.

119
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,760
So what Chambers And then last
but not least, another name I'm

120
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,640
going to throw out is Caleb
Spencer.

121
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,840
Caleb Spencer is, if he's not
leading the team in tackles, I

122
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:41,360
think he may be second.
And I feel like he's only played

123
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,920
in two games.
So now I'm going to throw this

124
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,080
out just so I can get y'all to
unpack a.

125
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,120
Little give it to Brian first
give it to Brian.

126
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:49,960
I'm going to I'm.
Going to give it to Brian

127
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:55,040
because Brian, you started it
and you said it prize gone.

128
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,560
Is it because we didn't trust
these guys?

129
00:07:59,920 --> 00:08:03,680
Is it because because sometimes
defensive coaches are so

130
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,760
stubborn and they think this is
what I want my defense to look

131
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,040
like, put this person in.
Is it that is it we paid this

132
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,600
guy?
Is it I don't want to piss these

133
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,080
parents off?
What do you think was the

134
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:21,040
problem of us not seeing more
talented people on the field?

135
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,640
I think.
The frustrating part and, and,

136
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:28,360
and some of this, so you know,
we, we've seen the number of

137
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,159
guys that are out last week.
We, we already got a couple

138
00:08:32,159 --> 00:08:36,480
other guys in the portal, so #1
there's going to be more snaps

139
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,559
for guys down the roster.
But I think what's frustrating

140
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,240
is that you're seeing these guys
get these opportunities and

141
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,520
they're making plays and they're
playing better than some of the

142
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,680
guys that have been getting more
snaps to this point.

143
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,960
So it begs the question is, is
there a reason these obviously

144
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,040
talented players weren't getting
more, more snaps in the game

145
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:59,760
before this?
And whether was, was it that was

146
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,360
it a money deal?
Was it just the opportunity now

147
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,040
with, with the with the
injuries?

148
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,640
But I'm, I'm seeing guys that
they're getting an opportunity

149
00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,760
and they are going out and
making the most of it.

150
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,600
And Christian Ellis is at the
top of that list.

151
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,000
But you said Noah Chambers.
I mean that obviously he's a,

152
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,440
he's a younger guy, but he was
getting in there making some

153
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,600
plays.
I'm just excited to see these

154
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,720
young guys go in there and ball
out because it's, it's been

155
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,720
something that I think we've
been talking about from an

156
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,560
accountability standpoint.
I know that's been something

157
00:09:27,560 --> 00:09:29,960
that we've talked about.
We've seen Dwight Victoria talk

158
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,800
about it a lot.
We've seen some of the other

159
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,120
guys talk about is that if guys
aren't getting the job done,

160
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,440
there's other people on your
roster, put them in and see what

161
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:39,640
they can do.
Yep.

162
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,400
I think it's that Brown, what
you said right there and then,

163
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,280
somewhat of a blind loyalty in
the money.

164
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,320
The money should never matter.
If you're paying the guy

165
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:52,120
$600,000, but he's playing like
dog shit, take him out, put

166
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,320
somebody else in.
And I think that was one thing

167
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,040
we can all say.
We'll probably think he had his

168
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:01,920
loyalty to a fault to a fault
for him because we've seen it.

169
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,840
Remember how long it took Caleb
Woodson to get and we saw

170
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,360
linebacker play improved last
year.

171
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,960
You know, we know Caleb's going
through stuff.

172
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,400
We don't know where it quite is
yet, but then we see the same

173
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,240
thing.
It's like OK give Caleb Spencer

174
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,800
a chance played good take Jay
and Keller off the field.

175
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:23,400
See I know it does does good
Some of the somebody else will

176
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,800
will mention this in a second
struggling to safety put the put

177
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,200
the put the Robinson kid in and
they play better.

178
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,640
So yeah and I think and again.
But you said that he want to be

179
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,800
friends with the parents and
that he want to be did Did he

180
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:40,600
want this or did he want people
mad at it?

181
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,400
Maybe that was it.
And again, to be a head coach,

182
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,960
you are going to piss off a lot
of people and you just cannot

183
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,440
care who you piss off.
And maybe that's what it was.

184
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:56,160
This is my this is my tank.
My take on on Coach Pry.

185
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,440
I I keep saying every week, all
right, I'm going to stop, I'm

186
00:10:58,440 --> 00:10:59,680
going to quit, talk about it,
but I can't.

187
00:10:59,680 --> 00:11:01,280
We have to.
No, no, we have to though.

188
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,080
We have to.
Yeah, because it's it's still

189
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,640
being unpacked exactly from from
Jess.

190
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,920
People that I trust, things that
I've seen.

191
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,680
I feel like Cry got paid and was
living like a rock star.

192
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,920
He felt as if he was a
celebrity.

193
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,840
He liked to go out and mix and
mingle and, you know, go to the

194
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,920
bar or go out and eat and
everybody's like, oh, that's

195
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,160
coach proud over there.
I think that he kind of fell in

196
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:35,160
love with that aspect of being
the coach at Virginia Tech

197
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,480
because you can go coach at UNLV
and they probably won't see you.

198
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,480
You're in Las Vegas, You know
what I'm saying?

199
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,800
Like it's too many people there.
But in Blacksburg, if you see

200
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:48,840
the coach out, they're probably
going to say, hey, I need to

201
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:49,680
take some pictures.
Coach.

202
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,920
Coach was going to win Saturday.
So I think he kind of fell in

203
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:58,240
love with the celebrity part of
it and handling that part more

204
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,360
than winning fucking games,
which is what you're getting

205
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,720
paid millions of dollars for.
And Brian, somebody put

206
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,240
something up.
I think it was Justin on there.

207
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:15,120
He said he wanted us to speak
about about Scott.

208
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:16,840
He wanted us to speak about
Scott.

209
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,880
They kept calling him Scott, the
defensive coordinator with his

210
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:24,720
name is Sam, but they kept
saying Scott Siefkis on the on

211
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,840
the on the on the broadcast.
They kept saying Scott Siefkis.

212
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,280
But anyway, I can't remember.
I don't see where the chat is

213
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:32,280
there.
Yeah, it's it's.

214
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,240
So it's about half time he was,
Oh yeah, man, he was into it.

215
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:41,480
So I was going to say because
you brought the video up, I had

216
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,720
never heard him talk.
I never, I mean, I heard him in

217
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,280
a couple of podcasts, but I've
never heard him like on the

218
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,120
field talking or seeing
anything.

219
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,560
So what did you think about that
video?

220
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:56,160
Just seeing how he was
interacting at halftime, hat

221
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,320
backwards, standing up on the
table or a bench and just

222
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,760
emotion.
What do you say?

223
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:04,440
And.
And, and I know we're talking

224
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,680
about that.
That band needs to keep the hat

225
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,000
on, so I'm glad to see him.
When he was going through his

226
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,000
rant, he had the hat on because.
He, I don't know, he was like.

227
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,800
It was backwards, Backwards.
It was backwards.

228
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,200
It was on.
It was on.

229
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,320
On and backwards.
You know what, I think just in

230
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:25,400
general when we looked at pride,
there was a lot of even keel

231
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:29,120
demeanor on the sideline in the
locker room.

232
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,520
And I think we'll we'll say it
it to probably to a fault in

233
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:40,040
most cases to a fault.
I was excited to see energy and

234
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,600
like they were having a good
time playing football.

235
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,320
They were having a good time
coaching football and they were

236
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,520
showing their emotions
outwardly.

237
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,520
It wasn't just, you know,
scribbles on a notepad.

238
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,680
I know there's already some
comments in the chat on that.

239
00:13:53,680 --> 00:13:57,920
I mean, you know, I, I'm a type
of, I'm a very analytical

240
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,800
person, but I'm a different
person when I'm on the

241
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,000
sidelines, when I need to get
guys going with I need to show

242
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,880
emotion when I need to be in the
moment.

243
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,040
So you got to have that switch.
You got to be able to switch

244
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,400
that on when the time is
appropriate.

245
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,640
And I don't I don't know if Pry
had that gear at the right

246
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:20,080
moments in his head coaching
role because it's weird because

247
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,440
you you you've seen a different,
you know, prize a coordinator

248
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:24,960
was different than prize a head
coach.

249
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:26,680
I don't know if that's
Blacksburg, if that's the

250
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:30,320
position, if that's just he
changed his mindset about how he

251
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,040
was approaching things or, you
know, whatever.

252
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:34,160
Maybe, but he was a different
guy.

253
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,960
How he approached the game and
it filtered down to the players.

254
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,880
It filtered down to his staff.
And getting a different energy

255
00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,480
in the locker room has made a
difference.

256
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:46,240
Absolutely.
I'm going to say something else

257
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:47,800
too.
And I love what Derek said here.

258
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,120
Derek, this is the first time
I've seen you in here, so

259
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:55,920
welcome to the chat.
Sam Seifkis called a hell of a

260
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:59,840
game versus the run.
Hollywood's mothers was fifth in

261
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:03,240
the country running the ball.
He got 60. 7.

262
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:09,040
Yards 67 yards Saturday night.
His longest was 11.

263
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,240
His game plans are how to stop
him.

264
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,720
Basically took away what they
wanted to do.

265
00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,480
Bailey made some good throws
here and there.

266
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,840
But something that's been
mentioned over and over and you

267
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,160
noticed this Saturday night and
I think it's a reason we pumm

268
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,240
the ball late and it's what went
well.

269
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,640
We kept making them drive the
field long distances.

270
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:35,160
They knew, and you heard Monty
say it today in his presser, We

271
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,240
knew they had.
They had not exploded for any

272
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,320
this year.
You're going to beat us, you're

273
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,320
going to put the ball 40 yards
down the field because we're

274
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,520
going to punt.
We're going to pin you deep.

275
00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:46,080
And we did.
If y'all remember where they

276
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,200
were, I think they were like the
15 yard line.

277
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,400
Let me make sure I got a little
note here on it.

278
00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,040
Yep, they were starting at the
18 yard line.

279
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:01,840
He knew you were going to have
to go 53 yards in less.

280
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,560
By the way, brilliantly managed
game too.

281
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,720
You're going to have to do that
in less than a minute.

282
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,040
It's taking you 5 and 6 minutes
every time to get into scoring

283
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:16,240
range.
So Sam Cephas knew the game plan

284
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,440
and that was the best thing.
And you saw his emotion,

285
00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,600
especially in the locker room at
halftime.

286
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,960
So it's great to see.
All right, Tally, I'm going to

287
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,720
pitch this to you, right pitches
you were you pitching to us.

288
00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,280
And I love it because I didn't,
I didn't, I didn't, I didn't.

289
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,600
Got some pieces together and
Tally's feasting on them.

290
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:37,840
But Tally, Brian already
mentioned #8 on offense, carry

291
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,040
on, Stewart.
Just I know you were at the bar

292
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,600
at the restaurant watching those
games, but when you saw some of

293
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,520
those first early runs where
they weren't bringing him down,

294
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,280
immediately, what, what started
going through your head?

295
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,880
Well, The thing is, is like, we
do all of this research, you

296
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,400
know what I'm saying?
I'll call Curtis all offseason

297
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,600
and he'll send me stuff and
Shelton will send me these

298
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,200
grades.
And we talked about broken

299
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:07,119
tackles and what he did at his
other school and what pieces

300
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:10,280
we're going to have.
And we haven't seen it.

301
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:14,839
You know, he's hurt.
Whether we didn't trust him, I

302
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:17,839
don't know.
But I know he looked healthy.

303
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:22,960
He looked healthy Saturday.
And when I seen him on the

304
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,040
field, which I've seen him a
couple other games and I was

305
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,400
like, Oh yeah, he's got more
verse than anybody else.

306
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,160
We're putting in the backfield,
You know, just a couple of plays

307
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:34,320
that I've seen.
But again, you got to get you

308
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:39,400
got to get, you got to get
healthy, but you got to get your

309
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:42,760
players on the field.
Now, I did talk to a couple of

310
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:48,200
people that I trust about the
team before the season and you

311
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:52,360
know, after this game, some
parents, some players and couple

312
00:17:52,360 --> 00:17:57,440
of players.
You'd never want to put a injury

313
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,400
as the reason we lose games or
anything like that.

314
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,640
But I will say this, Johnny
Garrett goes down.

315
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:08,400
Win.
Brian, do you remember Johnny

316
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,280
Garrett goes down against Vandy?
Vandy.

317
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:14,120
Yeah.
Right right before half right we

318
00:18:14,120 --> 00:18:17,280
were up 20 to 10 whole game
changes.

319
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:22,720
I'm pretty sure we were playing
4 red shirt freshmen and Vandy

320
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:26,920
just feasted.
You know Cunningham gets hurt.

321
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:31,880
Totally different.
Team 8 is not playing and ODU

322
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,440
was.
Everybody gave up.

323
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,240
We've lost both of these close
games.

324
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,320
We should have won or games were
kind of close and we should have

325
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,480
won.
And you know, you hear all this

326
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,600
chatter, it happens.
It is what it is.

327
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:46,000
Now you've got a body and team
and you coming back from some

328
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,480
injuries and #8 says give me the
ball.

329
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:54,600
So when I seen it, I'm I'm at
the bar and I look at #8 I said,

330
00:18:55,360 --> 00:18:57,400
shoot, they need to make him
what, 33?

331
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,160
He looked like 33 that we used
to have right back there in the

332
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:04,480
backfield, you know, just drop
about 5 inches.

333
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:10,680
Same guy.
You know, about 5 inches.

334
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,000
That's all you got to drop.
Same guy.

335
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:15,480
We bouncing off people, we
running over people, we getting

336
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,960
up, we doing a little dancy
dance like that's Virginia Tech

337
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:21,920
football.
He was having a good time. 106

338
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:28,560
was it?
Was it 174176174I mean 15

339
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:33,040
carries?
Yeah, 174 on 1511 and.

340
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:37,680
Listen and listen, man.
When you got somebody that is

341
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,960
doing that, it amps up
everybody.

342
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,680
I've seen Kyron Drones do some
stuff I ain't never seen him do.

343
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,960
I talked to his dad, he said.
I've seen Kevin shout out to

344
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:52,000
Kevin Drones, Kevin said.
I seen my son on the sidelines

345
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,440
standing up, waving a towel,
hopping up and down.

346
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,640
He just, he don't do that.
He's not that kind of kid.

347
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:01,720
He's a, he's a man, but he just,
he, he usually don't, he's not

348
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,160
like that.
But when you see somebody giving

349
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:10,520
it all they got going hard like
#8 was how can you not get hyped

350
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,000
if you not hyped on that offense
with somebody doing what he's

351
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,760
doing?
He making something out of

352
00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,480
nothing on plays.
You know, he's turning a three

353
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:24,000
yard run into a 8 yard run.
He's turning A8 yard run into a

354
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:27,040
16 yard run, falling down,
getting up.

355
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,200
You know what I'm saying?
Doing the first downside, bro,

356
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,480
that's football.
We've been missing that.

357
00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:36,200
We just been handing the ball
off, get what you can get, get

358
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,520
back in the huddle.
Come on, man, we was on some

359
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:43,000
bullshit.
Now we've got some people that

360
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,920
feel like we got something to
prove.

361
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,960
So I feel like, how far does
that go where we just plan on

362
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:52,680
emotions for one game or do we
take this into the next game?

363
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,800
Do we take this back home?
Do we show our fans at our house

364
00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:00,400
that I know y'all gave up on us
for good reason, but we still

365
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,080
got a product to put on the
plate for you.

366
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,400
So Rob, what you think about 8?
I know you mentioned it, what

367
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,120
you think about 8.
Man, so we were, we were out

368
00:21:08,120 --> 00:21:11,920
there, I was over at a friend's
house, son had a birthday.

369
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,120
We went over there, we're
playing some games, got to have

370
00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:18,280
the game on TV and he breaks off
that run where he broke like 3

371
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:24,000
tackles and drag guys about
another 8 or 9 yards and Buddy's

372
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,480
wife said he's small and I said
no, he's short.

373
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:35,520
He's. 58220 He is not small.
You can't get lower than him.

374
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,000
No, you can't.
You can't get lower than him.

375
00:21:39,120 --> 00:21:42,400
And it is crazy, man, because
like watching him run it, it, it

376
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:47,880
reminds me of Tooten to a little
bit, but it's also a little bit

377
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:52,400
angrier in terms, in terms of
the style, probably not quite as

378
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,840
that at breakaway speed that
Tooten has.

379
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:59,200
But at the same time, I love a
guy that's like that, that low

380
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,720
center of gravity runs angry,
can still shake you a little

381
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,640
bit.
I I'm glad we're seeing more of

382
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,120
him because I that, that was
something we sorely missed in

383
00:22:08,120 --> 00:22:09,800
this offense the first few weeks
of the season.

384
00:22:10,360 --> 00:22:13,760
You're 100% right.
One last thing before we get

385
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,920
into a couple getting one.
All pretty.

386
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:20,280
We we, we realist here y'all
John love.

387
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,720
The game.
Good ain't no ain't no question

388
00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:26,280
about.
That man it.

389
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,400
Is good.
Cool as a cucumber.

390
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:35,760
I bet it ain't no kicker.
I bet it's no kicker on any

391
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,480
college campus that's getting
more ass than John Love.

392
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,520
And it can't be.
It cannot be.

393
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:48,280
Name a better kicker or more
sought after kicker than John

394
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,480
Love right now.
He probably leading the team in

395
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:56,160
points.
Man, we get we get in a bad

396
00:22:56,160 --> 00:23:01,080
spot, we get in a bad spot.
John Love is going to do his

397
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,720
job.
He going to do his job.

398
00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,160
If he miss it, it ain't his
fault.

399
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,520
He can miss a 30 yard kick off,
say that ain't his fucking

400
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:14,280
fault.
Jon Love is untouchable until

401
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:15,800
he's on such.
Other man.

402
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,880
Because he's been doing it.
He's been doing it, man.

403
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,360
You know what I'm saying?
Protect that man at all costs.

404
00:23:22,360 --> 00:23:25,200
Don't let him get hit.
No celebrations.

405
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,320
Don't jump up and down.
No Martine.

406
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,800
Grammatical stuff.
Stay on the ground.

407
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,480
We need you.
Please, Johnny Boy.

408
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,160
There you go John Lowe all
right, let's talk about what

409
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:42,080
went bad real quick and first of
all, the fumble that if we could

410
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,160
have got our damn hands on would
have sealed the game much

411
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,320
earlier, not made us worry as
bad.

412
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,400
Have you ever seen a ball get
that close to so many people on

413
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,120
your team and just keeps moving
away?

414
00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:54,360
I.
Thought I was watching.

415
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,040
Was it football follies back in
the day?

416
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:57,960
Just.
Kicking the.

417
00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:01,360
Ball around.
You know what I thought it was?

418
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:07,160
You remember the the Buffalo
Wild Wings commercial for the

419
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,360
Buffalo Wild Wings?
But somebody's got the the butt.

420
00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:11,840
The little thing moving about.
Yeah, got the butt.

421
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:13,320
Oh, no.
We need overtime.

422
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,480
We need more play.
Yeah, that's what it.

423
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:16,640
That's what it looked like to
me.

424
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:18,960
It's just couldn't get our hands
on it, man.

425
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,280
I was like.
Crazy because that would have

426
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,520
ended the game right there if we
could have got our hands.

427
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,920
On.
It Brian, you threw this in

428
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:29,920
here, obviously, I think you
probably feel run, run, run

429
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:35,240
blocking was off the chain
Saturday because at no point was

430
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:38,320
the the other thing I noticed,
and I'm sure you noticed

431
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,760
probably more than me.
He was getting hit, but he was

432
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,760
getting hit a yard or two into
the run.

433
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,800
There wasn't too many that he
got hit 3 or 4 yards in the

434
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,240
backfield, but that was good.
But you said just a few things

435
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:52,480
concerned you about the Pass
Pro.

436
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,360
Yeah.
I mean, you know, we're starting

437
00:24:56,360 --> 00:24:58,720
to see a little bit of problems
with that.

438
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,640
I think it's just we've had a
little bit of a shuffle across

439
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,760
the board, right?
We've seen a bunch of different

440
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:05,960
bodies.
We've had a couple different

441
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,360
guys in there at left tackle.
We've kind of had to sly guys

442
00:25:08,360 --> 00:25:11,920
around and I think some of that
is just starting to show across

443
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,560
the board.
It's going to be interesting to

444
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,520
see if as this offensive line
gets healthy, if some of those

445
00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:22,320
things kind of go away a little
bit or if they continues to, to,

446
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,880
to crop up there.
But we're playing, some of the

447
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,200
younger guys are playing some
guys.

448
00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:27,840
I, I don't think you know, depth
wise.

449
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,520
We wanted to get out there for
as many snaps as we have and I

450
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,080
think some of that starting to
show a little bit.

451
00:25:32,360 --> 00:25:34,840
Thankfully, if you got a good
running game, if you can lean on

452
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,960
that a little bit more, that's
going to take some pressure off

453
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,640
the pass rush.
So as long as we can keep keep

454
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,720
rolling with the with the
offensive line on the the rush

455
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:47,560
game, I think that'll, you know,
help on that front, But it

456
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:51,160
definitely was not the the best
showing for the offensive line

457
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,800
in the past pro game this week.
Yeah, and a couple.

458
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,440
Times Kyra had to scramble that
that throw to Benji that should

459
00:25:57,440 --> 00:25:59,320
have went on the that was
unbelievable.

460
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,240
The throw to.
Benji was was great.

461
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:05,080
The the the throw to Hawkins on
the touchdown was great.

462
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,400
Oh, he stood in there for that.
They won't.

463
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,080
They won't.
That won't pass bro.

464
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:10,560
That wouldn't pass bro.
But I'm I was.

465
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:11,960
Just bringing more people up,
Kyron.

466
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,080
And and and.
Hanging in there.

467
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,280
That was the one he hung in
there for.

468
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,000
All right, boys, I'm.
Going to, I'm going to tell you.

469
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:18,400
This before we go to the next
thing.

470
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,440
Curtis, go ahead.
I think it was Cunningham.

471
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,000
Somebody was holding like a
motherfucker on the end of the

472
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,960
line when Kyron breaks out and
throws the past the AG sliding

473
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,240
on the sideline.
Go back and watch.

474
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,800
That.
Play whoever was on the end.

475
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,400
I think it was Cunningham
holding like a mug.

476
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,240
If I was North Carolina State,
I'd have been pissed.

477
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:38,880
But guess what?
I'll take a holding.

478
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:40,120
Shit.
Don't let him hit my

479
00:26:40,120 --> 00:26:42,840
quarterback.
Shoot a CAG on them, you know

480
00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:44,840
what I'm saying?
Push him down, grab his helmet,

481
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,480
do something.
Hell, I'll take it all.

482
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,120
Right.
Real quick, this is another of

483
00:26:52,120 --> 00:26:56,160
the bad because we had some guys
who had played a lot of football

484
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:59,520
absolutely struggle with
tackling that name.

485
00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,520
Their names kept popping up in
our chat all night.

486
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,800
Brian 1 was Jaden.
Keller, Tally.

487
00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,520
The other.
Was flowers.

488
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,480
And it and and everybody's.
Like y'all just hard on them Nah

489
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,480
that y'all see the PFF grades
they were both under like they

490
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,800
were both under like 45 tackling
grades.

491
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,680
Which means when you are that I
always Sheldon, you can explain

492
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,760
it better, but it's always been
you start getting to that nether

493
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:31,680
region you missed and you a lot
of tackles not taken away

494
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:33,800
because Cat flowers almost good
to pick.

495
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:39,560
But it's like this game maybe
could have been even an easier

496
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,080
victory.
Maybe we didn't need that, but

497
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,360
they struggled.
It's just struggle tackling.

498
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,600
Like there's a couple times like
Keller made some good heads up

499
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,600
tackle, but there was one play
and I can't remember what it

500
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:52,720
was.
I don't know if y'all remember.

501
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,480
So that he comes in and he's got
the guy leveraged and then the

502
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,440
guy kind of makes a movement.
He just kind of stands up.

503
00:27:58,440 --> 00:27:59,920
Like he doesn't.
He just kind of stands up and

504
00:27:59,920 --> 00:28:01,880
looks around like what are you
doing?

505
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,600
It's something he's right there.
So.

506
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,480
That those they worry me when it
becomes the open space tackle

507
00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,280
early in the.
Game the the one that I knew I

508
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,320
was like this going to be a this
going to be a long night for

509
00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:21,080
Keller was Smothers ran inside.
And I mean, it was, it was clear

510
00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:26,880
as day and inside zone holes
opens up, Keller is slow to

511
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,560
fill, he's about two yards from
the line of scrimmage, doesn't

512
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,360
beat him in the gap there and
gets kind of shook out of his

513
00:28:34,360 --> 00:28:36,040
pants a little bit.
I think we ended up being the

514
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:40,000
longest run of the night for
smothers or or or close to it.

515
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:44,240
I think it was like a 8 or 8 or
10 yarder and should have been

516
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,840
one or no yard game if you just
get in your gap and make a play.

517
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:51,680
He hesitated.
Then he got shook.

518
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:55,560
I mean, it was just bad all
around and the night got worse

519
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,000
for him as it went on.
Yeah.

520
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,200
All right, rule of thumb, if you
are, if you're watching a game

521
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,040
and you see ADB look like a baby
and you took his toy away and

522
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:09,040
he's doing this, he probably got
beat.

523
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,760
There's no reason you should
have thriller arms if you're

524
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:14,920
playing safe, you're trying to
follow.

525
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,160
You should not have.
Arms like thriller if you are

526
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,960
playing safety, chasing that
receiver.

527
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:27,240
Flowers, I like you, my boy.
I mean, I I like what I see from

528
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:37,160
you as a football veteran, but
as a football player, come on

529
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,800
man, I vouch for you.
I want you to do better, but you

530
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,240
got to start showing us
something.

531
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,760
You got to start hitting some
people because they put some

532
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:46,400
freshmen in and these they hit
you.

533
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,960
They need you to hit somebody.
Make some happy real.

534
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,320
Quick I I.
Want us just to go kind of 1 by

535
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:55,480
1?
What's in your head?

536
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,120
Anything you are not prepared
for on Saturday?

537
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:06,360
I I would say we, you know, we,
we got to win despite not

538
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,520
really, you know, turning the
ball over.

539
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,040
You know, we, we didn't, we
didn't have any really takeaways

540
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,320
in this in this game, but we
still you'd have to.

541
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,400
Tell me we had three turnovers.
The way I felt last Wednesday

542
00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,400
night to win this game.
Oh, we won the game, man.

543
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,160
They must have just kept giving
us the ball over and over,

544
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,560
right?
Was this?

545
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,240
Was this Tommy Castellanos?
Like just slinging it at us.

546
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,040
Here you go, here you go, Tal.
Anything you weren't prepared

547
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:36,560
for, Brian saying.
When does fight lack of

548
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:37,920
turnovers?
Talon?

549
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,760
I was not prepared.
For us to have a running back to

550
00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:46,040
run for 174 yards.
No matter who was back.

551
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:49,520
There, I wouldn't prepare for
Terry on Stuart for sure, but I

552
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,280
wouldn't prepare for us to have
a running back in a running

553
00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,800
game.
They had a running back run for

554
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,800
174 yards.
That was crazy.

555
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,000
I I thought we'd have some.
Ability to move the football

556
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:04,680
against them.
I didn't think he was going to

557
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,240
be that run heavy and I didn't
think, like you said, one back

558
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:12,880
going out there and just
dominating. 100% Curtis, what

559
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,560
you got?
For me.

560
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:20,160
Because of just how the season
had went so far up to that game

561
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:25,960
last weekend, we were given up
somewhere in the neighborhood of

562
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:32,240
about A150160 rushing yards.
People were running all over us.

563
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:34,880
Yeah.
We.

564
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:39,000
Gave up less than 60 yards on
the ground that I was not

565
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:43,120
prepared for that because I what
I say last week I said smothers

566
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,960
just don't get his.
They just can't be big ones.

567
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,960
He didn't have any big one that
he didn't get his and I that

568
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,160
just completely I was not
prepared for that.

569
00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,960
All right, I'm I'm going to go
to the what we got to do better

570
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,920
moving forward.
If the Kyron drones in the way

571
00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:03,880
he passed in the second-half
shows up all game, especially

572
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,920
Aiden Green Aiden green you got
to catch that that might have

573
00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:09,680
been the best D ball kyron's
throne in his career here

574
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,600
because he put that one right on
the money, but in the

575
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,200
second-half.
I don't know something like I

576
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,720
want to say I.
Think I did it.

577
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:20,320
It's like he.
Was like 8 of 11.

578
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,720
He only missed the one that he
only missed a couple passes in

579
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:30,480
the second-half and along with
the Stewart, if that Kyron shows

580
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:35,520
up and he's somewhere in the
6570% and we're passing it 2025

581
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,120
* a game and running the ball
with Stewart and with Kyron,

582
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:43,640
with Marcellus Hawkins.
We might do something stupid.

583
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,080
If if he can.
Keep that level of efficiency

584
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:51,240
for a whole game and he's
somewhere in that 200 to 250

585
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,760
range yardage.
He's had another 30 or 40 on the

586
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:58,920
ground, and then you get another
ground attack from the

587
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:00,920
combination of Stewart and
Hawkins.

588
00:33:00,920 --> 00:33:04,120
Like we saw this past week that
that's something that's pretty

589
00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,760
formidable.
And that's something where, you

590
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,480
know, as, as Cam was talking
about earlier, you know, with us

591
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,000
with, with Wake, I mean, they're
they're going to make a lot of

592
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,480
these teams are going to stack
the box and, and and make Kyron

593
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,840
beat you with his arm.
We're going, we're going to get

594
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,080
the teams that can do that, that
aren't where we can't just run

595
00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,040
through them despite them having
the box filled.

596
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,960
We're going to have to, you
know, pivot to to that passing

597
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:30,240
game and have to be efficient
with that because we know that

598
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:32,880
Monty likes to sling the ball
around a little bit.

599
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,440
It's not going to always be deep
down the field.

600
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,280
It's not going to be things like
that, but he's going to throw

601
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:39,880
the ball a good amount of times.
We got to continue to be

602
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,120
efficient with those
completions.

603
00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:46,840
And when we've been at least
somewhat efficient on offense in

604
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,880
the passing game, it hasn't been
pretty.

605
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,440
We haven't been great in the red
zone, but we've moved the fault,

606
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,240
the ball up and down the field
1/3 and out.

607
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,120
We had 1/3 and out Saturday.
Yeah.

608
00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,880
So and and that and that's
what's great.

609
00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:02,840
You know, and we and we did
pretty well, you know, the first

610
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,240
game and 1/2 with with, with
those things and then the wheels

611
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,960
kind of fell off, you know,
second-half of Vandy on and I

612
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,360
feel like we may have, you know,
recaptured a little bit of that

613
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:17,080
with with this NC State game and
I'm hoping that the.

614
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,639
Thing that I was.
Most proud of and that we can

615
00:34:19,639 --> 00:34:24,480
need to continue doing moving
forward is that we didn't let a

616
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:29,960
negative play snowball on us.
And I think we saw that you

617
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:32,520
know, we saw that Vanderbilt.
We obviously saw that ODU.

618
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:36,600
You know Vanderbilt, we let a
couple bad things turn into an

619
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,920
awful second-half ODU.
They came out and they punched

620
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:42,639
us in the mouth early and we
never had a counter push.

621
00:34:42,639 --> 00:34:45,120
We quit.
Yeah, we never had a counter

622
00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:49,760
punch and we quit.
So I saw a team that negative

623
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,840
plays happen and mentally we
stayed even keel.

624
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,880
We were excited on the on the
sideline, we were gas, we were

625
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,320
doing those things.
But mentally up top we stayed

626
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,560
even keel.
We didn't let that one play turn

627
00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:06,240
into 5 all.
Right tally.

628
00:35:06,240 --> 00:35:10,720
Anything from?
Saturday night.

629
00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,360
That you want to close us out
with here just.

630
00:35:15,680 --> 00:35:17,440
I, I don't know how the rest of
the season go.

631
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:19,840
I ain't going to look that far.
I'm going to say next game, I

632
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,120
don't know how the next game
goes.

633
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,800
I do have, I know we'll do a
prediction a little bit, but

634
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:28,640
just energy, energy and effort,
man, You know what I'm saying?

635
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:33,680
I haven't seen that kind of
energy from players and coaches

636
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,640
in a while.
You know, even in games that we

637
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,520
were in, like South Carolina, I
didn't feel like we had the same

638
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,080
kind of energy.
They wanted to give us the game

639
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,080
and we just was kind of playing
the game.

640
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,960
We didn't want to take the game.
You know, in this game, it was

641
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,760
like, you heard it, we got to go
take the game.

642
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,000
This is our game, let's go take
it.

643
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,200
And the kids bought in and
that's what they went and done.

644
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:03,240
So I'll be interested to see if
we come out with that same

645
00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:07,760
energy and that effort where it
takes US against White Forest.

646
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,560
I like what Justin said.
There put up Derek's too,

647
00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:17,320
because it is all on saying now
and it's already been a positive

648
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,760
for the for the first game
against AP5 opponent.

649
00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,560
So yeah, all right, so that
takes care of that.

650
00:36:23,720 --> 00:36:27,200
Tell the truth Tuesday.
We try not to tell any lies.

651
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:30,520
We just tell what we see.
All right, so let's hit some

652
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,480
music notes because the day was
the big day with the board of

653
00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:38,760
visitors and I think we all knew
what was going to happen.

654
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,720
And it did happen with one
person saying no.

655
00:36:41,720 --> 00:36:46,080
But the Bob did approve for the
new funding as a vote of 13 to

656
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,720
one.
Basically, within the next 4

657
00:36:49,720 --> 00:36:52,720
years, Tech's going to be
operating north of 200 million

658
00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,400
in the athletic budget.
What does that mean for

659
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,320
football?
Well, football is the biggest

660
00:36:57,320 --> 00:37:02,160
portion of the athletic budget.
People can get paid more, a lot

661
00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:05,200
more for NIL.
I don't think there was ever any

662
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:10,640
doubt, Nancy Dye saying.
I don't think it's fair to the

663
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:13,480
student fees.
You know.

664
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:15,720
The first.
Thing you want to say is.

665
00:37:15,720 --> 00:37:18,120
Well, they're still the lowest
in state.

666
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,480
You've got to figure out a.
Way to make money.

667
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,520
You've got better ideas, you
should be presenting them.

668
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:27,560
That's always another thing I
don't like, Mike says.

669
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,240
Well, I think it's because this
OK, my first thing I'd be a

670
00:37:30,240 --> 00:37:32,000
smart ass.
So what are we going to do then?

671
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,840
Or do you want us not to have a
good athletics program?

672
00:37:36,240 --> 00:37:37,280
Right.
Yeah, Dave.

673
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,720
Put it up here.
But I mean, no shock, right?

674
00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,480
Yeah, no, no shock.
Man, I mean, we knew it was

675
00:37:43,480 --> 00:37:45,120
going to happen.
It had to happen.

676
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,720
They tried to get their asses
kicked and the Dick stumped.

677
00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,200
So they wanted to go ahead and
do something about it.

678
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:53,400
Let's do something about it,
man.

679
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:57,400
Let's give it our best shot and
see if we can if we can create

680
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,400
some stuff.
Because when you look back at

681
00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,440
what a football team does, that
is good.

682
00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,640
And I'm just just talking
football.

683
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:05,400
We can talk about other sports
another time.

684
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,200
When a football team is good.
It is.

685
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:15,320
A big win for.
The city, you know, everybody in

686
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,520
the chat, you've been to
Blacksburg, when, when, when

687
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,120
things are jumping, when game
day comes in town, you know,

688
00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:25,040
like it's, it's electric.
That isn't just for the football

689
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,160
field.
Like you can go to Food Lion or

690
00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:31,120
whatever the the the grocery
store is and they're selling out

691
00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,160
of stuff and you got to get more
people to work that day because

692
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:38,120
you got to restock drinks.
Bigger than just football.

693
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,720
Football's just a catalyst and
when you start talking money,

694
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:43,880
you got to spend money to make
money.

695
00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,400
You can't run it like a mom and
pop if you want to be a

696
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:52,720
corporation, so.
Yeah, I mean, I think.

697
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:57,680
When you look at it at the end
of the day, you know, for all of

698
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:03,080
which false when when this was
first coming about, one of the

699
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,520
things he said was probably one
of the best things he said as AD

700
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:11,440
And it's you're either going to
pay for it now or we're going to

701
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,040
pay for it later.
And, and, and basically meaning

702
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,840
you're either going to up the
revenue now or you're going to

703
00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:22,760
pay for it later in lost
revenue, whether it be drops in

704
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:26,760
tuition, whether it be, you
know, you don't, you're not in

705
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:28,760
the national spotlight.
So you're not getting that free

706
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:34,320
billboard for the university,
getting put on ESPN, get put on

707
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:35,920
all these networks, all these
networks.

708
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,680
At the end of the day.
You're going to lose money if

709
00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:42,600
you are irrelevant, so a lot
more money a.

710
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:46,400
Lot of they spend money.
And and try to be relevant and

711
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,320
and and that's the one thing I
think that this fan base.

712
00:39:50,720 --> 00:39:53,760
Can't stomach is is.
Being irrelevant, I think.

713
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:58,720
I think we can, we can weather,
you know, a six win season here

714
00:39:58,720 --> 00:40:00,240
or there.
We can, we can weather all these

715
00:40:00,240 --> 00:40:01,560
things.
We can weather it, you know,

716
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:05,920
this, this decade of being in
the in the doldrums, but I don't

717
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,360
think we can weather being any,
any relevant football team.

718
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:13,920
So getting that right is going
to help all the other aspects of

719
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:18,400
the university, whether that be
from a perception standpoint,

720
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:22,160
whether that be for increasing
enrollment, all those things

721
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,280
will trickle down to these other
areas.

722
00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:27,800
And unfortunately, when we look
at student fees, that is just a,

723
00:40:28,240 --> 00:40:32,360
a part of the process now.
And whether you like or dislike

724
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:36,840
student fees, the fact of the
matter is, is that the the cash

725
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,480
is on the table for that and
everyone else is taking it.

726
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:43,760
So if you're not taking it,
you're falling behind 100%.

727
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,160
My, my, my last feel on it.
Like it's all been done right

728
00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:50,680
now.
There is the philanthropy,

729
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:54,760
there's the donations.
Basically Hokie Club was right

730
00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:56,960
at 20 million last year, last
fiscal year.

731
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:58,960
So it's going to have to go up
plus 10 million.

732
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:03,600
But the whole thing is with what
they just done and saying we are

733
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:07,880
devoting this much, there are
going to be people that maybe

734
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,040
this year you gave $200.00, but
next year, you know what

735
00:41:11,240 --> 00:41:14,520
they're, they're really trying.
They want to put us back where

736
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,880
we were.
I'm I'm going to cut a few

737
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,440
things here and there and I'm
going to give $700.00 this year.

738
00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:21,640
And a lot of people like what's
$700.00?

739
00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:26,200
That's not that much, but an
extra 500 from an extra 23000

740
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,280
people, that's when you start
bumping.

741
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,160
That's when things happen.
Or the guy who gives 1000 says

742
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:33,320
you know what, I'm giving 5 GS
this year.

743
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:35,960
That's when you get to that
goal.

744
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:40,480
And it also doesn't hurt that
this was announced after a win

745
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:45,720
like Saturday night like that.
I mean, hell, there's no better

746
00:41:45,720 --> 00:41:48,720
advertisement than that.
Like look how excited people

747
00:41:48,720 --> 00:41:49,760
were.
You saw you.

748
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,520
You've heard like the kids were
excited to say night on campus

749
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,760
and stuff.
So it's really good.

750
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:58,720
There will be the athletic
investment committee.

751
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,960
I know I heard that something
that they're going to help God

752
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,680
again, that's big boy type shit.
That's basically saying these

753
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:07,960
people are going to guide you to
where put the money, how to get

754
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,640
the money in, not just hey, AD
decide what to do with it.

755
00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:15,120
I love hearing that There was
also.

756
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,440
A hire last week.
Which?

757
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:20,880
Came kind of out of.
Nowhere apparently had been in

758
00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:26,160
the works for a while, but
Doctor Javonte Ashford is the

759
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,040
new associate ID for major
gifts.

760
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:33,480
That's the big, big money.
That's just 678 figures worth of

761
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:36,600
donations.
And, you know, you see, oh,

762
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,680
who's this guy?
Well, he's coming from

763
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:42,520
University of Tennessee, where
he was in a similar role.

764
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:47,480
And Tally, you're a little
closer to that than we are.

765
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:52,080
You know, being in SEC country,
they've made a lot of

766
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:55,280
substantial upgrades in the last
half decade down in Knoxville.

767
00:42:55,280 --> 00:43:01,360
Yeah, Yeah, a lot of.
Money, man, money got around and

768
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,720
you black dudes will Tennessee
going and talking about giving

769
00:43:04,960 --> 00:43:07,040
gifts.
He probably pretty good at

770
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:08,600
selling.
I'm going to tell you that right

771
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:12,200
now because they like some
NASCAR and stuff like that, but

772
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,720
they love their football.
So hey, I'll take it.

773
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:17,520
I, I will take it.
You know, I don't know much

774
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,240
about him, I ain't going to lie.
But I seen the high and I seen

775
00:43:20,240 --> 00:43:24,000
where he came from and have
watched Tennessee over the last

776
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:27,160
couple of years.
And I was like, now we starting

777
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:33,160
to, you know, we didn't go get
somebody from Spokane, WA to

778
00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:35,120
come over here and talk to
people.

779
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:37,200
You know what I'm saying?
You.

780
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:40,200
Want to get somebody who kind of
at least knows the area.

781
00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:42,760
You know, Tennessee's close to
Virginia.

782
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,360
Hey, I need you to go do your
job and grew up in Roanoke, so

783
00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,120
definitely knows the area.
Thank you, Curtis.

784
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:52,160
So you know, things like that,
man, you got to be able to, I

785
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:57,640
kept saying, and this is and
this is hard for a coach, the

786
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,200
coach can't do all this stuff
that needs to be done.

787
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:05,280
You got to have these positions
filled by people who want to go

788
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:09,120
out and be successful because
you need that coach to coach.

789
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:13,160
The coach has to be the
figurehead of the program, but

790
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:16,480
you need that coach to coach.
So the things like this that

791
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,400
we're actually going out and
getting and they talking about

792
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:23,560
going and getting the GM and
things like that, you got to

793
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,120
have that.
If you want to have a big.

794
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:29,560
Boy program man, you got to have
them positions field so when you

795
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:35,360
get the game day you ain't
fucking losing by 1.16 out of 17

796
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,960
times.
Let's talk about the other

797
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:38,720
thing.
Win 8.

798
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:42,480
Out of win 8 out of 16.
Time give me 1/2 of them Yeah.

799
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,480
And the other thing about the.
Money and and this goes back to

800
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:47,320
kind of the wit Babcock
situation.

801
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,760
So you got the one thing with
the money is that Curtis talked

802
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,880
about OK, well you get a win,
you get this money now people

803
00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:55,920
are going to be more willing to
part part with it.

804
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:58,480
The other part about people
being a little more willing to

805
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:03,320
start giving money again is that
football as a whole is.

806
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:05,320
No longer in.
The hands of wit Babcock.

807
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:07,800
Nope.
So.

808
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,240
There was a.
Lot of apprehension, not only

809
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,760
just because of the coaching
situation, not just because of

810
00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:17,000
the performance on the field,
but because Whit Babcock was the

811
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:20,880
ringleader of the all the
shenanigans that got us here,

812
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:23,640
right?
He is not going to be a part of

813
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:27,040
that puzzle anymore.
So I don't think he's going to

814
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,400
be part of the whole program.
In general, regardless,

815
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:31,760
regardless of whether he.
Stays on in any capacity.

816
00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,840
He's going to be hands off more
or less on the football side of

817
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,040
things.
So I think that's going to give

818
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:41,360
people a little less
apprehension when it comes to to

819
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,120
giving.
And then you start making see

820
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:49,120
these other moves to kind of
build up the Hokie Club and move

821
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:52,760
away from that kind of mom and
pop aspect of OK, well, you

822
00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,520
know, we'll hit this goal.
We'll hit that goal.

823
00:45:56,240 --> 00:45:58,160
At some point.
You got to get the people that

824
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,600
have the money to move off and
write the big checks.

825
00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:04,360
And it can't just be Mahul or a
couple other guys every few

826
00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:06,960
years.
It's got to be across the board,

827
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:10,720
so I'm excited to see what they
do with that 100%.

828
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,000
All right.
Real quick, I just want to

829
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:14,640
mention this.
I'm sure everybody's paying

830
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:17,320
attention to it.
Along with us having the open

831
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:21,440
vacancy, there are now 5, four
other schools that are out

832
00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:25,080
there, Stanford, which that's
going to be a special coach that

833
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:27,040
takes that job.
Don't even question it.

834
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:31,840
UCLA, Oklahoma State and
Arkansas and from the.

835
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:39,200
Sounds of.
Arkansas in UCLA, they ain't got

836
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,920
no money to spend.
And everybody's like, well,

837
00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,400
they're getting paid so much.
But I think what's happened over

838
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:48,000
the last decade is some of these
schools got overzealous and

839
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:51,000
spent way too much money on dumb
shit.

840
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:55,640
And now it is a crucial time to
have money to be able to spend,

841
00:46:56,240 --> 00:46:57,840
and they don't have money to
spend.

842
00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:02,280
So as much as that we can say we
don't like Whip, we can say a

843
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:05,200
lot bad stuff about him.
The one thing he did is he kept

844
00:47:05,200 --> 00:47:07,960
us out of debt, which really
probably for the next four to

845
00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:12,080
five years we can take on debt
as it comes to this crucial

846
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,680
time.
Well, it's.

847
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,200
It's it's good to.
Work be in a situation where you

848
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:20,240
can take on debt while you're
also raising your overall budget

849
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:24,600
in the process.
So you're, you're letting

850
00:47:25,240 --> 00:47:28,200
letting good money go after the
bad money in this case to, to

851
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:31,880
really double up what you're
trying to do from a funding

852
00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,760
standpoint.
So that's working in tandem at

853
00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,360
the same time.
Yeah, I think the big thing is

854
00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:39,440
that we got to get this GM
Hireright, we got to get this

855
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,040
coaching Hireright at we're at a
point where this has to be a

856
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:45,480
slam dunk.
And and that's really where my

857
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:49,960
concern is going to be is can we
get these, these aspects, these

858
00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:54,280
pieces of the puzzle correct?
Because if we don't, then what

859
00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:59,480
goodwill that this is is
generating, you know, two to

860
00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,760
three years down the road, we
might be back in the same place

861
00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:03,240
of saying, well, we got the
higher wrong.

862
00:48:03,240 --> 00:48:04,840
We screwed this up.
We screwed that up.

863
00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,800
If you're not getting a return
on the investment, at some point

864
00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:09,120
people are going to start
balking at you.

865
00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:11,960
True.
Quick question.

866
00:48:12,240 --> 00:48:14,920
Quick question.
We ain't going to.

867
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:18,120
Talk a whole bunch about HEAD.
Coach, But I do want to say

868
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:23,920
this.
What's the number of wins that

869
00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:28,400
money has to have to be
considered for the next Virginia

870
00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:30,720
Tech head coach?
He's got to go to Charlotte.

871
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:36,880
ACC got to go to we got.
To go to if he goes to the ACC

872
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:38,560
Championship.
Game and they reel off 9

873
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,400
straight wins.
You have to give it to him and

874
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:43,560
as much as that'll piss some
people off, say we want a bigger

875
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:47,280
name, like he just won nine
straight games and got you to

876
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,760
Charlotte.
What if he?

877
00:48:49,760 --> 00:48:51,520
Wins.
What if he is the number?

878
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:53,840
But I think Charlotte is.
Definitely the caveat Tally.

879
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:54,920
I'll let you go ahead.
Sorry about that.

880
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:57,360
No, you did.
I was just going to say.

881
00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,320
What if he just gets you to a
ball game?

882
00:48:59,320 --> 00:49:02,400
What if he wins six games?
Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope.

883
00:49:02,720 --> 00:49:04,520
We.
Went there, nine wins showed

884
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:06,560
something.
Nine win is a massive step up

885
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:09,880
because we were talking about
this year probably 1-8 or nine.

886
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:13,240
He probably kept his job for a
couple more years, yeah.

887
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,000
And The thing is the back half
of that.

888
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:20,360
Schedule don't look pretty, so
we'll see.

889
00:49:20,400 --> 00:49:24,360
We'll see how we got to win.
At least three in October to

890
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:29,360
have any, any sort of chance at
a bowl it is.

891
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:32,720
Going to be.
Tough.

892
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:37,840
All right.
Real quick, let's let's go to

893
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,480
our keys and our predictions for
the game this weekend.

894
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:43,600
I'll, I'll leave this off
because Cameron said it earlier.

895
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,720
It it's all about our Reds on
defense versus our Reds on

896
00:49:46,720 --> 00:49:49,280
offense.
I think whoever wins that wins

897
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,480
this game.
They aren't good.

898
00:49:51,560 --> 00:49:56,920
We aren't good.
Something's got to break so.

899
00:49:56,920 --> 00:49:58,680
That's me.
Like look.

900
00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:02,280
At the end, if if they they got
down there three, they got down

901
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:06,160
there five times and they scored
five times, we lose.

902
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,880
If they got down there five
times and they've been keeping

903
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:13,480
their average, which is scoring
3, we probably take the win.

904
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:15,880
I think the big thing is just
don't let them in.

905
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,920
That area all together.
Don't.

906
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:23,840
Let them get down there, man.
You can only score so many, so

907
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,080
many points by putting them in
the end zone if you only get

908
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:29,040
down there two or three times.
So keep them, keep them out of

909
00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:33,600
our side, get the ball back.
Hopefully we can control that

910
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,440
time of time of possession with
the run game, with the short

911
00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:39,880
passing game.
And you know, hopefully we do a

912
00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:41,840
little bit better of converting
some of those red zone

913
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:47,760
opportunities ourselves.
I think.

914
00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:48,920
The key is.
Just living in.

915
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:52,520
Turnovers, you know, definitely
watching your turnovers A-Team,

916
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:56,200
like Wake is going to kind of
feed on that, you know, coming

917
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,840
in, feed on that energy if you
turn the ball over and you got

918
00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:04,200
to get Kyrie's.
Stat line probably needs to.

919
00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:11,320
Be about, you know, 202, twenty
passing yards and give me about

920
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:14,640
50 rushing yards.
That's what his stat line got to

921
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:16,920
look like.
Again, you got to use him for

922
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,960
how he's needs to be used.
You got to have a rushing game

923
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:24,480
behind him too.
But on those 50 yards he has to

924
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:27,160
set that tone similar to what he
did.

925
00:51:27,160 --> 00:51:31,400
It was times when he was taking
on 2/3 defenders, getting the

926
00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,880
tough yards and then you come
with a running back doing the

927
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:36,920
same thing.
You got to be able to just set

928
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,120
that tone.
I think Derek just said it set

929
00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:42,680
the tone to start the game.
You know, we're not a finesse

930
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:44,800
team.
I don't think Virginia Tech will

931
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:49,000
ever be a finesse team.
No matter if they hire Cliff

932
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:53,480
Kingsbury in here, if they hire
Lincoln Riley, I think Virginia

933
00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:58,200
Tech always is going to be more
of a lunch pail.

934
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,880
Team.
You just got to go get some

935
00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:04,000
tough yards.
So if that's your identity, feed

936
00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,240
into your identity.
Let's go again this week.

937
00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:11,360
Like I said, use Kyrenheit needs
to be used.

938
00:52:12,520 --> 00:52:14,000
Limit them turnovers.
I think we're good.

939
00:52:14,000 --> 00:52:17,520
All right.
Brian Siegler.

940
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,480
They they broke what that you
said until we went A1 score.

941
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,520
I said it until until we beat
APAP 4.

942
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,480
Opponent in A1 score game I was
going to pick against them.

943
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,240
Damn it, they got you not.
I'm not picking against the

944
00:52:32,240 --> 00:52:33,680
Hokies.
This week and I hopefully I

945
00:52:33,680 --> 00:52:39,120
don't jinx them but give me 2721
Hokies.

946
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:41,440
Oh wow, another one.
Score win.

947
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,600
Tally, I'm going.
To.

948
00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:48,920
Pick against the Hokies, even
though I have a little bit of

949
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:53,720
confidence, I'm going to give
the edge to wait just because I

950
00:52:53,720 --> 00:52:58,200
need to see the consistency.
The last time I seen US against

951
00:52:58,240 --> 00:53:03,480
a competent team in lane, I
didn't like it.

952
00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:07,360
You know, no disrespect to to to
Walford, but I don't think

953
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,360
nobody thought we would lose the
wafford, no matter how bad it

954
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:14,320
was.
But I just need to see some.

955
00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:16,640
Consistency.
I need to see where we just

956
00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:21,200
playing off of the emotions and
now you have some expectations

957
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:24,920
you are favorite to win this
game.

958
00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:30,320
How every time we get some kind
of expectations, we fold it as

959
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,960
over the last couple of weeks.
I meant last couple of years.

960
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:36,120
I need to see what you do.
So I'm going to pick against the

961
00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:37,240
Hokies.
I'm going to say it'll be a

962
00:53:37,240 --> 00:53:43,760
close game, but wait takes it.
Alex stole my Thunder.

963
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,000
I was going to say almost.
Exactly what you were saying

964
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:48,120
because I need them to prove it
to me again.

965
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:51,600
I'm going to take wait for it in
this game 2723.

966
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:57,120
Heartbreaker man, I'm the only.
One riding with the Hokies.

967
00:53:57,240 --> 00:53:59,080
Man, you're the only one riding
with them.

968
00:53:59,920 --> 00:54:01,760
You know how they needed to
prove it to you.

969
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:04,960
They got to prove it to us.
If they can do it on our turf

970
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:07,520
two in a row against the
competent team, that's fair.

971
00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:09,360
That's fair, man.
I got to say it, Curtis.

972
00:54:09,360 --> 00:54:11,480
I got to say it, I know.
We got to get going, but I got

973
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,200
to say it.
You come out to that.

974
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:17,880
Damn innocent.
Man, please don't let the fans

975
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:20,560
down.
Don't let innocent man be the

976
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:25,240
highlight of the freaking game.
So tired of hearing about the

977
00:54:25,240 --> 00:54:27,040
entrance and then we go out and
lose.

978
00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:31,800
Go out and take this game.
Go out and get the fans.

979
00:54:32,200 --> 00:54:34,760
Prove us wrong, man.
I know we can do it.

980
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:36,520
Prove us wrong.
Don't let.

981
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,040
That don't let the.
Entrance be the highlight of the

982
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:40,280
game.
That's all I'm asking.

983
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,560
All right, there we go.
Yep, and you're right, Derek.

984
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:49,000
Fans need to win.
All right, so last weekend was a

985
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:51,360
hell of a weekend for sports,
hell of a weekend for college

986
00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:54,120
football.
This weekend it took a little

987
00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:57,200
bit of prime to figure out what
game we were taking because it

988
00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:01,360
the slate one was good.
Also, if you had gotten smart

989
00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:05,000
the last two weekends and faded
everything me and Brian decided

990
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:07,960
to do, you'd have a lot of damn
money in your pocket right now

991
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:14,320
because we are Owen 8.
It's rough, but the worst.

992
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:18,360
The worst part of that is.
We were at. 500 and then the

993
00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:22,800
last two weeks have just
snowballed into hell for us.

994
00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,440
We can't pick them for worth a
damn so yeah, if y'all are

995
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:29,920
watching this out there, feel
free to go ahead and just just

996
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:35,600
make a card fade and everything
we got here and you know I think

997
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:39,040
you'll be in be in good shape
all right I'll.

998
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:42,640
Kick us off, Brian, the first
fade and this is the game I

999
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:45,680
picked because I should be back
from baseball by the time this

1000
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:49,160
one kicks off.
We got Michigan State, Nebraska,

1001
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:55,240
Nebraska laying 11 1/2 points.
I got to say something.

1002
00:55:55,240 --> 00:55:57,280
I feel for.
Nebraska, because I watched a

1003
00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:00,440
good bit of that Michigan game.
They should have beat Michigan.

1004
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:03,040
I'm sorry.
They should have beat Michigan.

1005
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:09,040
And I believe I saw Michigan
State, USC the other weekend and

1006
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:12,760
just Michigan.
State's kind of just floating.

1007
00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,080
They had what was his name for
all those years?

1008
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:21,880
Not John L Smith.
Y'all know what I'm talking

1009
00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:23,000
about?
Old crusty.

1010
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:26,320
Guy, Yeah, the playoffs went to
multiple.

1011
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:29,640
I mean, he looked probably a
hell of a football coach that's

1012
00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:31,640
probably looked old, old and
crusty.

1013
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:37,760
But in this case, fade me.
I want to lay 11 1/2.

1014
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:45,200
Nebraska wins by 17, All right?
Yeah, click your button, Brian.

1015
00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:48,560
I did.
It's delayed Shelton, who's not

1016
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,120
here tonight because he had to
do some play by play action.

1017
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:59,160
He also rides with us Tally.
I got to go to Nebraska, man.

1018
00:56:59,880 --> 00:57:04,000
I ain't heard about freaking
Michigan State for 10 years.

1019
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:06,240
Thank you.
Yeah, D'antonio.

1020
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:09,520
D'antonio, Mark.
D'antonio, Mark.

1021
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:13,160
D'antonio.
Ron, I'm riding with Nebraska as

1022
00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,640
well, I think.
They're probably, I mean

1023
00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:18,160
Michigan State, like you said,
they're just kind of they're

1024
00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:20,520
kind of hovering at this point.
I don't really know what they're

1025
00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:24,200
if they're ever going to kind of
take that step back into that,

1026
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:27,200
you know, mid to.
Upper echelon.

1027
00:57:27,200 --> 00:57:31,640
Of the of the conference kind of
reminds me a little bit of

1028
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:35,440
another team.
I know unfortunately.

1029
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,920
But yeah, I think they're
they're at a crossroads as well.

1030
00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:43,360
At least I I see some some juice
and some movement on our end.

1031
00:57:43,360 --> 00:57:47,000
I think the brass is going to
take this one All right next.

1032
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,040
Game.
This is Tally's pick.

1033
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:56,520
Yeah, man.
The Cavaliers showed me a very

1034
00:57:56,520 --> 00:58:00,440
interesting game on Friday last
week, so I thought they deserve

1035
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,960
to be on big screeners again
this this week.

1036
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:08,640
But I am taking, I'm taking.
Excuse me, Louisville on this

1037
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:14,040
guy Kylie Land, the seven and a.
Half I'm.

1038
00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:16,680
I'm gonna go ahead and.
Jump in here, I mean.

1039
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:22,320
I am picking UVA in the capacity
that I don't think it will be

1040
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:25,800
more than a 77 point game.
I think that Louisville ends up

1041
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:29,320
closing this game out, but it is
closer than that, 7 1/2.

1042
00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:34,080
So give me the Cavs.
I'm similarly I don't know

1043
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:35,640
who's.
Going to win this game, but I

1044
00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:38,240
think 7 1/2 was just a little
bit too much.

1045
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:41,320
Although I think Cali, I think
your head, I think Cali's head

1046
00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,720
is saying they just had
literally their biggest win

1047
00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:50,120
since 2019.
Probably program wise, it's

1048
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:52,520
probably their second or third
biggest win of all time.

1049
00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:55,200
Can they handle the emotion
going on the road to a tough

1050
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:59,640
environment and they quarterback
was trying to they quarterback?

1051
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:02,720
Was trying to give Florida State
the game, and Florida State's

1052
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:04,440
quarterback was trying to give
it back to him.

1053
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:07,720
Take it, I don't want.
It take it I don't want.

1054
00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:10,560
It take it nobody landed that
game.

1055
00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:13,800
That's what it felt, yeah.
Sheldon is riding with you

1056
00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:17,200
Tally, which is probably smart,
giving me and Curtis's track

1057
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,840
record the last couple weeks I
think.

1058
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:22,560
There's a, there's a, there's a.
Theme here y'all, y'all pay

1059
00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:24,360
attention to what Shelton's
doing.

1060
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:30,880
All right, next. 1.
This is Shelton.

1061
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:37,200
Shelton picked Miami FL State
massive game was going to should

1062
00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:40,000
have been more massive but
Florida State couldn't figure

1063
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:45,880
out how to be Eva Shelton is on
this one and he is taking the UG

1064
00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:50,280
later 4 1/2 tally.
What about you man?

1065
00:59:50,280 --> 00:59:54,720
I got to go to you, man.
That defensive line, offensive

1066
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:58,240
line too.
Trenches look ridiculous for

1067
00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:00,520
Miami.
I don't know if they win at all.

1068
01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:03,800
I don't know what they do this
year, but from what I've seen in

1069
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:07,520
the they offensive defensive
line, I think they are going to

1070
01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:10,680
probably beat Florida State by
about 14 points.

1071
01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:18,480
I'm not quite on that. 14 but I
think a 10 point curve could be

1072
01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:22,400
in play here.
This is probably the best top to

1073
01:00:22,400 --> 01:00:30,040
bottom and and coached Miami
that we've seen in maybe 25

1074
01:00:30,040 --> 01:00:36,520
years in terms of just talent in
in a lot of different places,

1075
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:41,960
talent where it needs to be.
Coaching, that is.

1076
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,480
Fairly consistent.
They don't, they don't hurt

1077
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,480
themselves as much.
So we'll we'll see if we'll get

1078
01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:51,440
the classic Miami blunder at
some point down the stretch in

1079
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:54,560
this season.
Hopefully it is, you know, at at

1080
01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:58,400
our expense there.
So, but in the interim, I think

1081
01:00:58,400 --> 01:01:00,480
Miami takes care of business
against Florida State.

1082
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,040
I'm going.
Opposite of all.

1083
01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:08,760
Three of y'all I think Florida
State was looking forward to

1084
01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:13,280
this game last Friday night
because if you looked.

1085
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:16,440
At everything.
That they they had the ball in

1086
01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:21,320
the red zone 3 three more times
then UVA.

1087
01:01:21,360 --> 01:01:24,200
They came away with 0 points out
of it.

1088
01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:26,600
That was the game.
I think they locked in and

1089
01:01:26,600 --> 01:01:28,400
focus.
I think I'll pick a home

1090
01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:31,720
favorite or a home with points.
I don't know who's going to win

1091
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:33,240
this game.
I think it's going to be

1092
01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:36,800
entertaining as hell though.
Give me Florida State, give me 4

1093
01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:39,240
1/2 points.
There we go, man.

1094
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:41,840
All right.
Last one is you, Brian.

1095
01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:43,600
Oh, Jeezy.
Hey, man.

1096
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:45,280
Hey, man.
Hey.

1097
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:51,040
Man, Bama hosting the The
Commodores, man, I feel like

1098
01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:54,400
with, with our match up against
Vanderbilt the last two years,

1099
01:01:54,400 --> 01:02:00,160
we, we've put Vandy on here
probably more than then maybe we

1100
01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,720
should have.
But I think with with what

1101
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:07,720
they've done there with with
with bringing in Jerry Kill and

1102
01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:12,400
Diego Pavia, that's a team that
is dangerous every week and they

1103
01:02:12,400 --> 01:02:16,360
play in the SEC so.
With that being.

1104
01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:22,680
Said Bama is -10 1/2 at home.
I'm taking Vanderbilt, yeah.

1105
01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:24,200
I think this is going to come
down to the wire.

1106
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,280
I don't think it's going to be
like a three, three-point game

1107
01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:29,120
or anything, but I think it's
going to be about A1 touchdown

1108
01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:31,000
game.
I think Bama closes about late,

1109
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:33,560
but you know Vandy will cover
there.

1110
01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:35,880
Yeah, this is another one I
don't.

1111
01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:38,800
Know who's going to win?
But 10 1/2 is way too much to

1112
01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:44,120
lay Alabama, especially coming
off that win down in Athens last

1113
01:02:44,120 --> 01:02:47,280
week.
The the question is, can Kaylin

1114
01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:51,480
Devore straighten them out?
To get off of that and know

1115
01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:54,920
Vandy is like Vandy's for real,
they're going to throw funky

1116
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:58,880
stuff at you both ways. 10 1/2
is just not enough.

1117
01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:02,280
Also fuck Diego Pavia, that
little bastard's trying to get

1118
01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:03,760
like a ninth year of
eligibility.

1119
01:03:03,760 --> 01:03:08,120
Be like, motherfucker, you were
like 26 years old, get a job.

1120
01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:13,200
Go throw in something, by the
way, football.

1121
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,720
Van Wilder, baby Van Wilder,
Shelton said.

1122
01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:19,600
Tally Shelton's riding with
Bandy.

1123
01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:23,520
By the way, Tally.
Was the only one who took

1124
01:03:23,520 --> 01:03:28,320
Alabama last week.
He got that win because I know

1125
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:31,200
you, you amongst them down
there, man.

1126
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:33,040
I just, I just felt it, man.
I.

1127
01:03:33,040 --> 01:03:35,520
Think that Alabama wins this
game, but I think it's going to

1128
01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:41,160
be closer than 10 1/2, maybe 10.
The hook threw me off the hook,

1129
01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:44,120
Yeah, threw me off a.
Little bit, but I'll.

1130
01:03:44,120 --> 01:03:48,280
Say Vandy's about to have a
gauntlet of a schedule, man, you

1131
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:53,640
know, they are about to get into
some, you know, LSU, Missouri,

1132
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:57,040
Texas, Auburn, Kentucky,
Tennessee.

1133
01:03:57,720 --> 01:04:01,000
So from here on out, their
schedule is going to look a lot

1134
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,680
different than it has looked.
I think that that's going to

1135
01:04:04,680 --> 01:04:07,280
keep them in the game because
you got Alabama coming off of

1136
01:04:07,280 --> 01:04:11,960
playing Georgia coming into the
game.

1137
01:04:12,400 --> 01:04:14,560
Maybe underestimate them a
little bit.

1138
01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:18,680
But at the same time, I do think
Alabama will lock in and win

1139
01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:20,520
this game.
But I think it's going to be

1140
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:23,320
closer than what the spread is.
So I took that in.

1141
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:26,520
All right, there we go.
All right.

1142
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,880
So we got that up there, all of
our kits.

1143
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:34,800
Is there any anything happening
in the last?

1144
01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:37,760
Well, the one thing I know is
today y'all follow John

1145
01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:40,120
Rothstein?
Yeah, he was.

1146
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:43,360
He was.
At he was at tech today, Yeah.

1147
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:48,080
Did you see the video?
I did not go look at the video.

1148
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:50,640
Demands this, he thinks we can
get back in the tournament this

1149
01:04:50,640 --> 01:04:52,640
year.
All right, all.

1150
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:54,400
Right, not my words, I saw.
The.

1151
01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:57,480
I.
I saw the highlight you're

1152
01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:02,200
talking about Neo, you talk
about him being a better shooter

1153
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:08,360
than Igor Damon with with BYU.
He's he's he's very high on Neo

1154
01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:11,760
at this point.
So we'll see if if all those

1155
01:05:11,760 --> 01:05:15,240
pieces can come into place with
with the talent that was left on

1156
01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:17,840
the roster with some of the
moves we made this this

1157
01:05:17,840 --> 01:05:19,480
offseason.
I'm really excited about this

1158
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:21,920
basketball team, probably as
excited as I've been in a few

1159
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:25,720
years.
So excited to see if they can

1160
01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:27,520
put it on the floor there.
It's going to be a really good,

1161
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:30,120
really good year, I think in
Blacksburg for the for the

1162
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:32,480
Hoagies basketball team.
Absolutely.

1163
01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:34,880
I think we.
Brian, I think we might need to.

1164
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:37,480
Find us a game and go to this
year, man, we haven't been to a

1165
01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:40,440
basketball game together.
Binding to find one dog.

1166
01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:42,880
Yeah, they've got to be pretty
cool.

1167
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:45,320
Well, you know what still would
come with you?

1168
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:47,680
In a heartbeat.
All right, get up.

1169
01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:49,280
Get up with Phil, man.
See if he'll let.

1170
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:51,760
Me stay at moments of the MAR,
you know, then head to a

1171
01:05:51,760 --> 01:05:54,160
basketball game.
I think that'd be pretty cool.

1172
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:56,520
Phil loves basketball, man.
He.

1173
01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,800
I.
Mean about 98% sure he's going

1174
01:05:59,800 --> 01:06:03,360
down to the Bahamas for the that
tournament this year.

1175
01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:05,440
Yeah, I'm about to reach out to
him.

1176
01:06:05,840 --> 01:06:08,720
And if he does, he he.
Said if I go, I'm going to do a

1177
01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:11,280
live remote from the Bahamas.
OK.

1178
01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:12,640
OK.
We'll see.

1179
01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:15,400
All right, nothing.
Else breaking down.

1180
01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:17,560
Fun night.
You guys were awesome in the

1181
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:18,920
chat.
I don't know how many messages

1182
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:20,960
we have in there.
We did not get to them all.

1183
01:06:21,280 --> 01:06:23,080
Apologies.
We got to talk to.

1184

gambling till the NBA season
starts.

1196
01:06:58,800 --> 01:07:02,080
I don't believe in one bit for
that because the Titans have

1197
01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:05,040
damn, they're broken in Tally,
almost broken in.

01:07:14,760 --> 01:07:16,640
with Tally.
He is getting his little man

1202
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:18,720
cave set up.
I love it.

1203
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:21,480
Get the big jersey on one side,
the big BT flag.

1204
01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:23,760
Go to the other side, move a
little bit out of the way

1205
01:07:23,760 --> 01:07:26,440
because you got to show that
you.

1206

I love it.

1209
01:07:31,440 --> 01:07:34,200
I'm glad that Dad has come to

1210
01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:37,160
Tally so much.
It's closed, baby.
