This week we welcome Jonathan Talley for his first BCP episode as co-host. Next we sat down with Hokies offensive lineman Kaden Moore as he discusses his new role as leader of the unit and what it's been like lining up next to his little brother for the Hokies. We close this episode out with a discussion of Hokie hoops, football winter workouts, and a couple key position changes heading into Spring practice.

So yes, my real name is Jonathan
tally and everybody, the cosmi
42
00:03:12,500 --> 00:03:18,100
tally or JT, but I've been in
Alabama, my whole life.
43
00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:21,200
Born and raised here.
Small town called Columbia and
44
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,100
Alabama, went to a small, high
school college, Shelby County,
45
00:03:25,100 --> 00:03:28,800
High School, After High School
with the Jacksonville State
46
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:32,000
playing, you know, basketball,
baseball and football.
47
00:03:32,700 --> 00:03:37,600
My you know years coming up and
then got pretty serious about
48
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,800
football.
In high school ended up having a
49
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,700
severe knee injury and figure it
out.
50
00:03:44,700 --> 00:03:48,100
I didn't love sports as much as
I thought I did.
51
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:54,800
So I didn't progress with with
football after that injury MCL
52
00:03:55,600 --> 00:04:01,200
ACL and PCL and this is well so
all that up everything.
53
00:04:01,500 --> 00:04:05,900
Everything It's moldy, you tore
it up, exploded in this was, you
54
00:04:05,900 --> 00:04:09,500
know, 2004.
So yeah medicine was a little
55
00:04:09,500 --> 00:04:18,600
bit different so still went to
school still, you know, partied
56
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,600
a lot and had some fun but again
been here my whole life, I got a
57
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,300
brother that's a little bit
older than me.
58
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,800
He's about 12 years older than
me when he graduated high
59
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:33,600
school, he went to the Navy like
Graduated one day went to the
60
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,400
Navy, the next.
So he was stationed up in
61
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:42,700
Norfolk, Virginia and visiting
him and getting stuff from him,
62
00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:47,200
getting care packages from him,
all consisted of Virginia Tech
63
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,600
stuff.
So, Him being a teen be being
64
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:55,400
six at the time.
You know, I kind of took to the
65
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,100
to the Hokies back then and
yeah, of course, who doesn't
66
00:04:58,100 --> 00:04:59,700
love Michael Vick in the Vick
family.
67
00:04:59,700 --> 00:05:02,500
Once you start watching the
Hokies and there on the field.
68
00:05:02,500 --> 00:05:06,100
So I've been following the
following the following the
69
00:05:06,100 --> 00:05:11,200
Hokies ever since man and been
crying ever since as well.
70
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,600
I guess that's true.
That's true.
71
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,900
It is a real tears.
Let me ask you real quick just
72
00:05:17,900 --> 00:05:20,300
because you know, you played,
obviously you played at a good
73
00:05:20,300 --> 00:05:22,300
enough level to get a Collegiate
scholarship.
74
00:05:22,300 --> 00:05:24,800
To an FCS school.
What positions did you play?
75
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:29,200
Just so when you chime in and
say something about it, like all
76
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,800
right.
Y'all listen, he ain't just a
77
00:05:30,808 --> 00:05:33,500
guy that's talking shit, right?
Yeah, hehe.
78
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:35,200
I do a lot of that.
I do a lot of that.
79
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,100
You know what?
I'm watching the game and I'm
80
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:54,700
critiquing.
That's why I start looking, you
81
00:05:54,700 --> 00:05:56,800
know.
It's a lot of us, a lot of
82
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,800
positions on the field at a
glory positions that we all
83
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,000
follow.
But you know, I know guys like
84
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,500
me and Brian when you've been in
those trenches man, you you
85
00:06:06,500 --> 00:06:09,000
don't forget them.
So I'm looking at that line a
86
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,700
lot of times and looking at the
tight ends and things like that.
87
00:06:12,700 --> 00:06:17,600
So it's been good though man.
We've had some we've had some
88
00:06:18,300 --> 00:06:20,400
Some fun times.
I'm like you said, I knew you
89
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,200
guys for three to four years now
and I'm definitely excited to be
90
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,200
here, man.
It's a, sometimes it's a real.
91
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:30,400
Like I said, even just seeing
your name going across the
92
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,700
bottom is kind of surreal to be
like, okay, I'm going to pop,
93
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,500
I'm a part of a podcast, you
know.
94
00:06:34,500 --> 00:06:36,500
I had to tell some friends and
family had to go to a birthday
95
00:06:36,500 --> 00:06:38,500

while and we're glad add to be

Your first game in Layton
stadium was yeard game.
104
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,500
I was in Rutgers.
It was 02.
105
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,500
The Kevin Jones.
Insane got trapped in a corner
106
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:13,300
running, cut it back as the
game.
107
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:14,300
His first.
Yes, sir.
108
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:18,600
Yes, sir.
I was 0. 3 U CF D Hall playing
109
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:23,000
everywhere.
Literally that game my eye
110
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,400
buddy.
God Rest, his soul, Brian
111
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,000
Wilkerson and a friend of ours,
Blair Waldorf took me to that
112
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,000
game now 20 years ago.
So tally.
113
00:07:31,300 --> 00:07:33,500
You got to tell everybody what
was your first game?
114
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:40,700
And Lanes, 2016, 2016 2016 Miami
came to town.
115
00:07:40,700 --> 00:07:43,000
I think it was a Thursday.
It was a Thursday night game.
116
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:48,400
She's like a great game to go to
man, a great game to go to
117
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,100
Thursday night, Lane Stadium, me
and a buddy.
118
00:07:51,100 --> 00:07:54,600
We went to college together.
He's a tech fan as well.
119
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:00,100
He's not as active on social
media, but we've been up to then
120
00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:03,400
up to Blacksburg a couple of
times together and we knew
121
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,700
Nobody we just said you know
we've been Virginia, Tech fans
122
00:08:06,700 --> 00:08:10,100
all through college and we make
enough money to go to a game.
123
00:08:10,100 --> 00:08:11,900
Let's go to a game.
So here we go.
124
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:16,600
Came up to the Miami game and it
was a week, his car.
125
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,400
I remember we parked, I can't
remember what the story is but
126
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,500
it's a store that's like on the
other side of the bookstore like
127
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:25,800
a gas that it's not really a gas
station, I don't think.
128
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,300
But it looks like a gas station.
Okay.
129
00:08:27,300 --> 00:08:29,700
In school I don't know what it's
called though.
130
00:08:30,700 --> 00:08:34,700
But it's on the same side of the
road as the bookstore, but just
131
00:08:34,700 --> 00:08:38,299
maybe a block down the road and
we parked in his car got tired.
132
00:08:39,299 --> 00:08:43,400
Well, it applies that was our
first introduction to Blacksburg
133
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:49,200
and and the cops there.
So from his fourth are, you will
134
00:08:49,500 --> 00:08:52,300
let our sponsor at Main Street
Pharmacy.
135
00:08:52,300 --> 00:08:54,500
There know you're in town, so
you can just park over.
136
00:08:54,500 --> 00:09:01,800
Yeah, Jeremy what he drives.
Orange Challenger.
137
00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:05,000
Oh man, it wasn't it wasn't hard
to spot.
138
00:09:05,100 --> 00:09:09,500
It was gone.
All right, so one last piece of
139
00:09:09,500 --> 00:09:13,800
the puzzle here 16 Miami,
Thursday night game, we smack
140
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,900
them down and you've been a fan
for a long time.
141
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,800
Who's your favorite hokey?
My favorite hokey.
142
00:09:21,300 --> 00:09:23,000
It's got to be my man, all
right.
143
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,200
Got to be Mike Vick and I know
that's cliche but like I'm it's
144
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,100
deeper than meeting just
football, you know.
145
00:09:30,100 --> 00:09:31,900
Watch Watching him.
I'm a bit.
146
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:34,800
Kobe fan as well.
And you know, it's not that I
147
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:39,800
want somebody to get in trouble,
but to watch somebody go through
148
00:09:40,300 --> 00:09:44,400
adversity, and bounce back like
they've done Mike and Kobe.
149
00:09:44,900 --> 00:09:48,500
It is crazy.
And to meet like I met Mike in a
150
00:09:48,500 --> 00:09:52,500
in a Cracker Barrel here in
Huntsville, Alabama, it's like I
151
00:09:52,500 --> 00:09:54,900
can't not say Mike.
Yeah, you know, it's a lot of
152
00:09:54,900 --> 00:09:57,300
other people in that and I think
he told that story the first
153
00:09:57,300 --> 00:09:59,200
time you came home with I love
you did.
154
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,400
Like somebody told you Mike
Because in Cracker Barrel and
155
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,400
you got in your car and drove,
right?
156
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,300
Like I'm at home sleep and I've
got a buddy who was a head
157
00:10:07,300 --> 00:10:11,200
server at Cracker Barrel who was
calling my phone and I usually
158
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,100
put my phone on vibrate when I
when I sleep like I had woke up
159
00:10:15,100 --> 00:10:18,200
and went back to sleep and then
I wake up and it's like 30
160
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,900
missed calls.
Look like do do you understand
161
00:10:21,900 --> 00:10:24,500
Mike Vick is here and I'm like
Michael Vick ain't there.
162
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,900
I think he's here right now.
So I just grabbed my Mike Vick
163
00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:32,200
jersey.
He and like beelined it to this
164
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,800
is about 10 minutes away.
Yeah.
165
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:38,600
But the crazy thing was he told
Mike I was coming like he was
166
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,500
like hey I got a buddy that is a
big Virginia Tech fan and he
167
00:10:41,500 --> 00:10:44,300
wants to meet you and he's like
tell him to take his time, just
168
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:49,000
will hang out till he gets here.
So that was pretty cool man and
169
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,200
he was like, so down to earth
Marcus was there as well, but
170
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,300
they would just like in there by
themselves, just chilling.
171
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,300
You know, Cracker Barrel whole
bunch of old white people.
172
00:11:00,500 --> 00:11:05,200
Why do whatever I come in there?
I'm like, got my hokey stuff on.
173
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,700
I got my jersey, hold my old, my
shoulder and like almost
174
00:11:09,700 --> 00:11:14,000
Starstruck six to three hundred
and eighty pound man wanting to
175
00:11:14,008 --> 00:11:16,700
cry because he's meeting his
childhood hero.
176
00:11:16,700 --> 00:11:19,500
You know if that means also did
was crazy.
177
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:22,400
But that that was a, that was a
that was a great time.
178
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:29,300
And again, just for for me to
meet him and him to be as humble
179
00:11:29,300 --> 00:11:32,600
as he is to.
Be everything he's done in his
180
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:33,900
life.
It was, it was a pretty good.
181
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,100
It was a pretty good experience.
Yeah, that was cool him and him
182
00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:39,300
hanging out to you got there to
like, oh yeah.
183
00:11:39,300 --> 00:11:41,700
Yeah, take your time.
We'll be here hanging.
184
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,400
We just be here hanging at the
Cracker Barrel in the middle of
185
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,800
Alabama.
Yeah, just gonna hang out here.
186
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,600
No way.
People eat chicken fried steak
187
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,500
next to him.
Yeah, yeah exactly.
188
00:11:52,500 --> 00:12:01,200
You got Marcus and Mike walking
in with Lewis bags and Now, once
189
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,200
I started taking pictures, I
think people started like, he's
190
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,900
somebody famous.
Let's figure out what's here
191
00:12:05,900 --> 00:12:07,600
today.
I just guys don't take long
192
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,500
after that.
I got my I got my signatures and
193
00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:11,700
left.
There you go.
194
00:12:12,300 --> 00:12:13,800
Thanks, thank you for waiting
for me.
195
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,900
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Yeah, we'll go home because I
196
00:12:15,908 --> 00:12:18,500
know you want to probably eat
and go back to wherever you go.
197
00:12:19,100 --> 00:12:21,600
All right.
Well tally again, it's awesome.
198
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,700
That you are now going to be
joining us and you know what, we
199
00:12:25,700 --> 00:12:29,200
thought we had this rundown.
We got together about what 9:00
200
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,600
this morning went through thing.
Things.
201
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:35,200
Hey, we ready to go and of
course what happens this
202
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,200
afternoon that the breaking news
comes out, Andy bitter.
203
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,400
First reported it, come from
Justin Williams at the athletic
204
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,800
that quarterback coach Brad.
Glenn is going to be taking over
205
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,100
as the Cincinnati.
Bearcats offensive coordinator
206
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,800
and quarterback coach and a
statement from Brent pry.
207
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,900
He just basically says he wants
to congratulate Brad on his new
208
00:12:56,900 --> 00:13:00,200
opportunity at Cincinnati as the
o.c.
209
00:13:00,500 --> 00:13:03,500
He rises long-standing
relationship with Scott
210
00:13:03,500 --> 00:13:06,800
Satterfield to coach at Sensi,
who was previously at
211
00:13:06,808 --> 00:13:10,000
Louisville.
Basically, a lot of time with
212
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,800
them their he's thankful for
bread and supporting his career
213
00:13:13,100 --> 00:13:16,400
and they appreciate his family's
time and wish him the best.
214
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,800
It's really late in the process
but I won't blame Brian for this
215
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,300
because his Colts decided to go
higher the Cincinnati.
216
00:13:25,300 --> 00:13:28,100
OH see just a couple days ago,
it's my fault.
217
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:36,300
Okay, I guess be real y'all.
It is not the best time.
218
00:13:36,300 --> 00:13:39,900
We are about three weeks away,
right?
219
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:41,800
I'm on a new computer here.
What?
220
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,300
Three weeks away from Spring
ball.
221
00:13:43,300 --> 00:13:46,100
Getting real four weeks away.
Yeah. 34 weeks away from pretty
222
00:13:46,100 --> 00:13:47,100
cool dolls.
Yeah.
223
00:13:47,300 --> 00:13:51,800
From getting going and now we're
at a point where we're going to
224
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,000
have to bring in a new
quarterback coach or someone may
225
00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:00,100
be an offensive analyst and
we've got to figure this out.
226
00:14:00,100 --> 00:14:03,200
So Tally, I'll leave with you.
When you, when you read the
227
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:04,900
stuff they what was your first
couple thoughts?
228
00:14:05,900 --> 00:14:09,300
I'm a little different man.
You know, I was like, so what
229
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,000
I'd say it like that, but it was
like, I didn't really have a
230
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,000
feeling toward it because I
haven't paid much attention to
231
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,700
brag.
Liam, I'm sure he's a great
232
00:14:19,700 --> 00:14:25,000
coach of great guy for him to
get a raise and, you know, to go
233
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,800
up in job because I think he's
also see where he's going right
234
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,400
now.
Yeah, I'm sure he's got some
235
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,700
skill.
But I hadn't I hadn't seen his
236
00:14:32,700 --> 00:14:37,600
value at Virginia Tech yet.
So it wasn't like, it was crazy
237
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,700
news to me that he was leaving.
Again not great timing.
238
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:42,900
So that is a little bit
alarming.
239
00:14:42,900 --> 00:14:45,700
Like, what are we going to do in
typical Virginia Tech fashion?
240
00:14:45,700 --> 00:14:48,700
They're probably going to hire
from within promote somebody
241
00:14:48,700 --> 00:14:52,400
until next year or something,
but when you talk about, maybe
242
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:57,600
recruiting or even some of the
primary pieces that he was
243
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,600
coaching a lot of times they
mentioned, Bow and more than a
244
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,800
mentioned.
Glenn are from what I heard.
245
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:08,600
So it wasn't it wasn't up in
arms, you know what I'm saying?
246
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,600
Like you're somebody would have
said Chris Marvin's leaving
247
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,400
today or Tyler Bowens leaving
today.
248
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,900
I would have been like oh
there's a season, you know what
249
00:15:16,900 --> 00:15:18,400
I mean?
We're going to hit me a little
250
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,200
different, got you.
They said when they said Glenn
251
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,100
is leaving, it was just like
okay we gotta replace him but
252
00:15:24,700 --> 00:15:28,100
yeah, I know for what we are.
I think we are.
253
00:15:28,100 --> 00:15:32,200
Okay, got it Ron.
Yeah, I kind of felt separately.
254
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,800
I mean, I was looking at it and
I was like, all right, well,
255
00:15:35,700 --> 00:15:39,600
because I'm kind of indifferent.
All the value that brag Glenn
256
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,200
was bringing at this point,
because when we looked at it, we
257
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:49,300
saw We looked at it.
We got not the greatest output
258
00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:52,700
last year but you weren't
working with a whole lot but
259
00:15:52,700 --> 00:15:55,100
Brad hadn't done a whole lot on
the recruiting Trail either.
260
00:15:55,100 --> 00:15:57,000
You know a lot of the guys that
have been brought in even
261
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:02,400
quarterbacks had been you know
Bowen guys so especially we look
262
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,400
at our own drones in particular
that was a guy that Boeing went
263
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,800
out there.
He got to bolster up the
264
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,600
quarterback room so when we look
at it from that perspective you
265
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,800
know a lot of lot of my opinion
on This is good or bad for the
266
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,300
Hokies.
Give depend on who the next guy
267
00:16:19,300 --> 00:16:24,900
is, if it's a internal
promotion, then it's probably a
268
00:16:24,900 --> 00:16:29,100
net -, yes, we're probably
looking at a drop off in terms
269
00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:33,900
of overall coaching ability.
Whether we're you know, getting
270
00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:36,400
a little bit of that back on
some of the recruiting side,
271
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,900
that's to be seen.
But on the from that front,
272
00:16:39,900 --> 00:16:41,000
that's when it would be a
negative.
273
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,900
But if we go out and get
somebody that has some, you
274
00:16:43,900 --> 00:16:48,500
know, either The G5 or power 5
experience to come in and take
275
00:16:48,500 --> 00:16:50,800
that role.
Then I think that might
276
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,400
potentially be a net positive.
Especially if that person is
277
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,500
shown some aptitude on the
recruiting Trail before us and
278
00:16:56,500 --> 00:16:58,900
especially if they've been
recruiting in this footprint.
279
00:16:59,900 --> 00:17:03,200
Yeah, I mean I'm with y'all on
the way, I mean, I don't like
280
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,800
the timing of it, but as far as
Brad, Glenn goes, this was his
281
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,800
first power 5 job.
Brad had been a coach, you know,
282
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,500
in the Collegiate ranks since
2005.
283
00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:15,200
He was a tap State forever,
Western Carolina, Georgia State.
284
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,800
So this was his first step up
and then having the relationship
285
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:24,000
with Scott Satterfield.
Okay.
286
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,099
Here's Robbie as one of our
coaching buddies, their tally
287
00:17:27,099 --> 00:17:30,300
that you will meet soon.
Trust me and I think y'all are
288
00:17:30,300 --> 00:17:34,900
gonna hit it off, great, but
it's also a friend Emma Skye
289
00:17:34,900 --> 00:17:37,500
Satterfield coach together for
quite a few years up adapt
290
00:17:37,500 --> 00:17:38,900
State.
They had a relationship.
291
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,100
And then you're saying for us is
like hey can you blame him?
292
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,400
Hey come Be My OC.
W pay be in charge of
293
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,500
everything.
We're going to the big 12 next
294
00:17:49,500 --> 00:17:51,900
year.
No and if for nothing else it
295
00:17:51,900 --> 00:17:54,400
again it's going to look at as
far as ramp rago's.
296
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,400
It's like well way saying if you
come here you might have an
297
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,300
opportunity to take a step if
you have those connections
298
00:18:01,700 --> 00:18:05,800
because you know, even though it
wasn't the best output in even
299
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,900
though Brad's not the best
recruiter, I think Brad's
300
00:18:07,900 --> 00:18:10,300
probably a good solid.
Collegiate football, coach.
301
00:18:10,300 --> 00:18:13,700
But what we're talking about and
it's like, we're buying saying,
302
00:18:13,700 --> 00:18:18,000
like it's neutral right now,
depending on who we hire is, he
303
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,200
wasn't in on drones, that was
bowling.
304
00:18:20,500 --> 00:18:22,300
He wasn't in on Pop Watson,
who's the guy?
305
00:18:22,300 --> 00:18:25,600
We flip the four star that was
flipped at the end of the cycle
306
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:30,300
last time.
So, you know, it's like it
307
00:18:30,300 --> 00:18:31,400
sucks.
It's close.
308
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,200
But you feel like we can
probably put someone there.
309
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,800
Maybe not as good as a coach but
maybe a better After which, in
310
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,900
this day and age, you know,
you've got to be able to recruit
311
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,500
and let's talk about
Replacements, you know, Brian
312
00:18:45,500 --> 00:18:47,000
just through.
I mean, Robbie, just threw a
313
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,700
name up there that I hadn't even
thought about Brian Crispin, a
314
00:18:50,100 --> 00:18:52,700
been, a offensive analyst you
for a couple years.
315
00:18:52,700 --> 00:18:57,100
Does he get his shot?
Possibly possibly.
316
00:18:57,100 --> 00:18:59,600
Yeah we got it.
We have somebody on the roster
317
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,000
this done done some of that.
I mean Chris has done some of
318
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,100
that, we got another guy that's
younger than some of that.
319
00:19:04,100 --> 00:19:08,400
So we got to probably a couple
guys that could be looking in
320
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,300
line for promotion and tally.
I'll let you go go and your
321
00:19:11,300 --> 00:19:11,600
point.
Yeah.
322
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,100
So my thing is if you look at
the quarterback room and you
323
00:19:15,108 --> 00:19:20,500
look at the quarterback position
from last year, can it get
324
00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:24,300
worse?
I mean, I'm not.
325
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,600
Last note, we have nine
interceptions.
326
00:19:55,300 --> 00:19:59,500
Somebody internally in there.
I don't think that you can get
327
00:19:59,500 --> 00:20:01,300
worse than we were.
There you go.
328
00:20:01,300 --> 00:20:04,700
That's a good idea.
And I and also just say drones
329
00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:06,600
comes in and he tears it up this
year.
330
00:20:07,300 --> 00:20:10,500
What what do you do?
I mean with the with the job
331
00:20:11,100 --> 00:20:13,700
it's true.
If the guy who's coaching them
332
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,800
that you say, it's his, he done
it and then you promote him full
333
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,900
term out.
It's a lot of ways to go.
334
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,200
A lot of ways to go and it's
going to be interesting to see
335
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,100
what happens in.
The next few weeks here about
336
00:20:27,100 --> 00:20:28,900
that position and I don't think
we're going to be waiting.
337
00:20:28,900 --> 00:20:31,000
Long mean, it was our plan is
probably come on here.
338
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,600
Next week, I had a feeling
there's going to be one in place
339
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,100
by then we will be talking about
it.
340
00:20:35,500 --> 00:20:41,600
So let's roll on on last week in
this was after tally joined, but
341
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,100
he was at work, one day making
the bread because we, you know,
342
00:20:45,300 --> 00:20:48,600
we are three full-time.
We have our professional
343
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,700
careers, we got on his
husband's, we are fathers.
344
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:58,200
So, there's gonna be times where
only one of or two of us all
345
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,100
really.
That's why you won't Brian Kris.
346
00:21:00,100 --> 00:21:03,200
Hyung, was he there when you
play know?
347
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,900
He would.
Okay, what the Ryan, silver
348
00:21:05,900 --> 00:21:13,000
filled situation, only one
around, but, you know, we have a
349
00:21:13,008 --> 00:21:16,500
lot of stuff going on.
So, last week, last Thursday,
350
00:21:16,500 --> 00:21:20,500
evening, me and mr.
Siegel here, got to sit down
351
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:25,300
with starting offensive lineman.
Or got to talk with him.
352
00:21:25,300 --> 00:21:26,600
So we're going to play that
interview.
353
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,700
You guys going to play that
interview for y'all.
354
00:21:28,700 --> 00:21:32,500
Now it was a really good time.
Cadence, great, young man, fun
355
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:35,500
to talk to.
He might reveal some
356
00:21:35,500 --> 00:21:39,500
information, he wasn't supposed
to reveal but hey, breaking news
357
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,700
in just a few minutes, you're
going to hear something from
358
00:21:41,700 --> 00:21:44,000
Kate more, that might shock
people because I don't know if
359
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,100
it's been on boards or talk
behind the scenes.
360
00:21:47,100 --> 00:21:50,000
But Brian, let's roll the Katie
Moore interview.

00:21:52,700 --> 00:21:56,400

00:22:07,500 --> 00:22:09,400

00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,900
We got Caden more jumping on

366
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,100

Just just finished a little

00:22:22,100 --> 00:22:28,000
The r-va glad you're able to hop
on with us and try not to keep
371
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,300

It's Thursday night.
372
00:22:29,300 --> 00:22:32,400
We know you got a lot to do.
So we really appreciate you
373
00:22:32,408 --> 00:22:34,600
joining us.
Appreciate your having for here.
374
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:37,300
Awesome.
Well, let's, let's let's start
375
00:22:37,300 --> 00:22:39,600
right here because we see the
pictures.
376
00:22:39,900 --> 00:22:42,300
We see the videos from the
winter workout.
377
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,700
How's the body feeling about a
month into the offseason
378
00:22:45,700 --> 00:22:47,200
strength and conditioning
program?
379
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,700
So far, it's been it's been
pretty good on the offseason
380
00:22:52,700 --> 00:22:55,400
week.
We went home for the December
381
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,300
break out of like a plan to
like, lose a little bit of
382
00:22:58,300 --> 00:23:01,100
weight without start feeling
good.
383
00:23:01,100 --> 00:23:04,000
I'd be ready to run because I
know we come back and all
384
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,600
running right into it.
I'm not a good way.
385
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:08,700
I'm at a good strength right
now.
386
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:10,300
I'm like building.
So I feel ya.
387
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,400
It's been good.
Do something here.
388
00:23:13,700 --> 00:23:15,900
That's also and I know that I
know coach prior kind of
389
00:23:15,900 --> 00:23:19,100
preaches that that competition
in the, in those strength, and
390
00:23:19,100 --> 00:23:21,400
conditioning drills.
How's that going for you so far?
391
00:23:22,100 --> 00:23:24,900
I've been good.
Yeah, I love coach prize.
392
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,600
I love the competition aspect.
He brings like everything, you
393
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,400
know, practice, no hunger,
drills.
394
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,800
Even workouts.
Like at the end of every hunger
395
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,900
drill.
We do like three different
396
00:23:38,900 --> 00:23:44,400
versions of competition, whether
it be tire pool, Pull a team, a
397
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:49,400
team one is the tug of war and
then they have the horse and
398
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,100
Chariot where they put like 500
pounds on a sled put it on your
399
00:23:53,100 --> 00:23:54,600
back and we just have to pull
it.
400
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,700
Yeah, there's a lot.
It's that be fun.
401
00:23:57,700 --> 00:24:00,800
It's a good way to like end the
hunger drill and it off with a
402
00:24:00,808 --> 00:24:03,000
right.
I got a right step but I mean,
403
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,300
yeah, it's fun.
It's definitely definitely good.
404
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:13,700
Which of those three is your
favorite Well the The Chariot
405
00:24:13,700 --> 00:24:17,500
one was introduced like last
week and I've been uprooted I
406
00:24:17,500 --> 00:24:20,300
was the first one to do and I
don't know, it's weird.
407
00:24:20,300 --> 00:24:24,000
It's like you're dragging it but
like like you're on all fours,
408
00:24:24,500 --> 00:24:27,100
you can read and you have to
make sure you're on the ground
409
00:24:27,100 --> 00:24:29,400
and like you're pulling it and
the weights coming up.
410
00:24:29,700 --> 00:24:32,500
But like you have to, like it's
hard to explain, they get to
411
00:24:32,500 --> 00:24:36,400
like balance how much rope You
Pull and how far it goes?
412
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,100
Because if you pull too hard at
once all going to go forward and
413
00:24:39,100 --> 00:24:40,900
you're not going to, you're
gonna have a lot of rope left
414
00:24:40,900 --> 00:24:43,200
that A sense.
Yeah, yeah.
415
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,000
So you get like almost pulling
it, too, too fast.
416
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,400
It's going to kind of dig in and
like to come with you.
417
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,500
Got you?
Yeah, that's like probably the
418
00:24:51,500 --> 00:24:54,200
tire pull because that's like
one-on-one, you know, you like,
419
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,200
you're getting it out the mud,
like, against another man.
420
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,900
So I mean, probably Tire pool
are y'all going against
421
00:24:58,900 --> 00:25:00,300
defensive players?
When y'all do that?
422
00:25:00,300 --> 00:25:02,500
Or is it, is it ou Lai en mano a
mano?
423
00:25:03,100 --> 00:25:06,400
Oh, he likes to mix it up.
He puts, you know, he'd look
424
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,200
like quarterback birth
quarterback and like quarterback
425
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:12,500
battle, but if usually 40 lines,
whose University learn Nice.
426
00:25:12,900 --> 00:25:15,500
Very, very nice.
Who's so since we're doing that,
427
00:25:15,500 --> 00:25:17,600
who's your favorite person to go
up against an entire pool?
428
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,900
Well last year they put me up
against my brother.
429
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,300
That was my favorite person
because I mean you know it's
430
00:25:25,300 --> 00:25:28,700
just brother on brother like the
most like pure competition even
431
00:25:28,700 --> 00:25:31,900
from like your kid that was kind
of my favorite one and it
432
00:25:31,900 --> 00:25:34,100
definitely takes you back
probably he's like yeah I've
433
00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:36,100
been doing this my whole life
like exactly.
434
00:25:39,700 --> 00:25:41,800
All right, so let's let's put it
this way.
435
00:25:42,500 --> 00:25:46,000
This offseason into spring.
What's one part of your game
436
00:25:46,100 --> 00:25:50,900
that you're trying to focus on?
I don't know if this is part of
437
00:25:50,900 --> 00:25:53,200
the game but I never really
liked my leadership.
438
00:25:54,100 --> 00:25:57,300
I want to like become the like
the leader of the old line
439
00:25:57,300 --> 00:26:01,300
leader of the Hogs, you know,
embody that leadership like
440
00:26:01,300 --> 00:26:03,300
mine.
So I think last year we had
441
00:26:03,300 --> 00:26:08,600
great leaders like soil.
Listen, obviously they are going
442
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,700
to be on a fellow.
So I mean, I'm the next up, me
443
00:26:10,700 --> 00:26:12,700
and Parker.
So I mean just being a leader
444
00:26:12,700 --> 00:26:16,500
being vocal though.
Being the head of the group is
445
00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:20,300
basically what I'm trying to get
better and we love hearing that
446
00:26:20,300 --> 00:26:24,000
because back last month we did
an episode called alpha dogs and
447
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,500
we talked about the o-line and
we talked about losing about
448
00:26:28,500 --> 00:26:31,700
losing salicin, and I'm going to
be straight up Brian.
449
00:26:32,300 --> 00:26:35,100
Brought your name up.
He said, I think Kane can take.
450
00:26:35,300 --> 00:26:38,200
Stuff.
And and I love hearing that
451
00:26:38,300 --> 00:26:42,300
that's be drive for because as
fans of this football team, we
452
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:45,900
know how good you played last
year and it's great to see that
453
00:26:45,900 --> 00:26:47,600
you're ready to step into that
role.
454
00:26:48,500 --> 00:26:51,400
And I know the fans out there
going to be glad to hear it as
455
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,000
well.
You, you came to Blacksburg by
456
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:59,300
way of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania
who was recruiting, you the
457
00:26:59,300 --> 00:27:03,700
hardest when you were a prospect
and what were the factors that
458
00:27:03,700 --> 00:27:06,100
kind of LED you to pick?
Virginia Tech.
459
00:27:07,900 --> 00:27:12,500
Um, well, my recruiting was
really quiet for the most part.
460
00:27:12,500 --> 00:27:17,700
I mean, I only had 2 FPS offers
with Bowling Green and Virginia
461
00:27:17,700 --> 00:27:20,900
Tech and then the rest were, I
think they got 5 STS.
462
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:21,900
I don't remember which ones they
were.
463
00:27:21,900 --> 00:27:26,600
Riding Monmouth Robert Morris,
some other ones, but definitely
464
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,900
bullying green.
They, they recruited me for like
465
00:27:28,900 --> 00:27:33,300
a whole year.
Like sent me letters called me.
466
00:27:33,300 --> 00:27:35,100
Every day.
Saw me in school every day.
467
00:27:35,300 --> 00:27:37,800
Day.
So yeah, they recruited me hard
468
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,600
but now I was 12 like, when I
went at came in to come, see me.
469
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,500
That was like, I want to go to
Tech like that, was out of my
470
00:27:45,500 --> 00:27:47,600
mind.
So I went to, I went to like
471
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,700
three camps, I still didn't get
an offer, I was like, maybe,
472
00:27:51,100 --> 00:27:55,600
maybe it was not right.
And the Sunday before, the last
473
00:27:55,600 --> 00:28:01,500
signing day, I got a call from
the old line coach place, and I
474
00:28:01,508 --> 00:28:04,600
mean, they offered me, I went
the official on edge committed.
475
00:28:05,300 --> 00:28:08,500
Nice.
Very nice to see and let's talk
476
00:28:08,500 --> 00:28:10,800
about that a little bit.
So you committed and then you
477
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,200
kind of burst on to the scene in
2021 with the big year after
478
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:15,900
being in the 2D during the covid
year.
479
00:28:15,900 --> 00:28:20,600
You turn that into 13 starts
freshman All-American, second
480
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,400
team selection by the athletic.
What do you think?
481
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,200
Played the biggest role in your
early success in Blacksburg?
482
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,200
I definitely hundred percent say
Brock Hoffman.
483
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,400
I mean from the first moment I
stepped foot on that campus.
484
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,900
Like you took me under his wing.
Literally taught me almost
485
00:28:39,900 --> 00:28:41,500
everything I know up to this
time.
486
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,700
I mean he was like the like the
leader for me when I was young
487
00:28:45,700 --> 00:28:47,600
like even my first year like it
wasn't.
488
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,800
He's a senior, I'm a freshman I
could talk to me.
489
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,000
Like it was he saw like my
potential and he was like, I'm
490
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,500
gonna like he kind of said that
like me and him were kind of the
491
00:28:56,500 --> 00:28:58,700
same.
In some aspects of our game,
492
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,200
like, do aggressiveness, the
like, grabbing people and
493
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,200
finishing up.
So he kind of took me under his
494
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:08,500
wing from early standpoint and
taught me stuff that he wasn't
495
00:29:08,500 --> 00:29:10,900
doing other people.
I mean I feel like that was one
496
00:29:10,900 --> 00:29:14,400
of the big things for me at a
young age about a young time.
497
00:29:14,700 --> 00:29:18,000
I'm coming in here and that has
to make you feel good because
498
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,700
Brock you know for those couple
years he was here he was the
499
00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:23,600
leader of that old line and now
he's obviously I mean finding
500
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,200
success staying you know with
Cleveland for a while and then
501
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,800
being on dialysis Master.
I love hearing that though.
502
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,300
And have you kind of taken that
role?
503
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,300
Have you other than your
brother?
504
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,300
Obviously, I'll have you taken
any of the young guys now, that
505
00:29:37,300 --> 00:29:39,700
because like you said, you're
kind of your kind of the older
506
00:29:39,700 --> 00:29:43,600
guy in that room now.
Yeah, I mean, I'm trying my, I'm
507
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,600
like I'm trying to, like, learn
how to be that lead to learn how
508
00:29:46,608 --> 00:29:50,500
to be the guy that like shows
the other guys, the way to go.
509
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,300
Yeah, I say I'm sure.
Yeah, I'm trying.
510
00:29:53,300 --> 00:29:55,400
That's that's why I'm trying,
I'm trying, I'm trying to learn
511
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:56,600
how to do it.
I should say.
512
00:29:57,500 --> 00:29:59,500
Nothing in that.
Absolutely.
513
00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:02,600
Absolutely.
You know let's talk let's keep
514
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,200
talking about the offensive line
a little bit here.
515
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,800
We know that there was some up
and downs last season but the
516
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,400
ship kind of steadied out
towards the end of the season.
517
00:30:11,300 --> 00:30:14,500
Were there any shifts in
philosophy or Preparation?
518
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,100
That kind of allowed the
offensive line unit to jail in
519
00:30:17,100 --> 00:30:23,500
November?
Um, I'd say coach Rudolph was
520
00:30:24,500 --> 00:30:28,400
the real reason for any gel and
he really just, he puts people
521
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,000
together and practice and he
pretty much figures out who's
522
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,600
the best on which side.
So he thought Jesse was good
523
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,700
with Silas and he thought I was
going Parker because me and
524
00:30:36,700 --> 00:30:41,700
Parker we played last year.
I think we started 66 out of the
525
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,600
12 or 13 game and we I mean I
feel like we measure pretty
526
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,200
good, so he wanted to keep us
together and so I was already
527
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:49,700
had the left path.
Sprouts.
528
00:30:49,700 --> 00:30:53,600
I mean like that was one of the
driving forces in the gentleman
529
00:30:55,200 --> 00:31:01,100
is is he looking at any sort of
position changes or anything
530
00:31:01,100 --> 00:31:04,100
like that across the guys that
are returning this year or kind
531
00:31:04,100 --> 00:31:06,200
of cross training folks in
different positions?
532
00:31:07,300 --> 00:31:11,400
Yeah.
So I've adopted the center Rule
533
00:31:11,900 --> 00:31:15,000
and me and like me and Braylon
I've basically been rotating but
534
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:19,600
I'm trying to like, pick up and
be the, like, the center, From
535
00:31:19,900 --> 00:31:23,200
like for this year.
So I'm trying to, I've never
536
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,300
been like a center, I'm never
like Snap.
537
00:31:25,300 --> 00:31:29,400
So I mean I've been practicing
since the end of the season.
538
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,300
So yeah, I know.
I've definitely gotten better
539
00:31:32,300 --> 00:31:34,200
at, I know, like, all the
technical stuff.
540
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:38,000
So, basically, just trying to
figure out like, how to get
541
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,000
better at that position because
I know I've been a guard, I was
542
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,300
a tackle in high school like I
believe.
543
00:31:43,700 --> 00:31:49,100
But yeah, kind of like yeah.
And it kind of slowly moving
544
00:31:49,300 --> 00:31:51,400
Moving down the line, right?
Get moving down the line.
545
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,900
Exact, man you're gonna have
like everything on your resume
546
00:31:54,900 --> 00:31:57,400
by the time.
It's, you know you know maybe
547
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,900
even next year at this time,
going into the going into the
548
00:32:00,900 --> 00:32:03,300
draft, like I played center, I
played guard, I played left, I
549
00:32:03,300 --> 00:32:05,600
played right, I'll pay tackle, I
can do anything.
550
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:11,500
You want that good that you do?
You have had two coaches since
551
00:32:11,500 --> 00:32:14,500
being here, you know, coach
coach, Vance, Vice.
552
00:32:15,100 --> 00:32:19,100
And now one year under coach
Rudolph, what's the one thing?
553
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,800
You learn from each of those
gentlemen, that has helped you
554
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:28,400
become a better player.
I definitely say my career.
555
00:32:29,500 --> 00:32:33,500
I think it was a blessing that I
had code advice in my first two
556
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:37,000
years because he taught me like
grittiness, like he taught me
557
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:42,100
like, I don't know, like, his
mentality was like killed.
558
00:32:42,100 --> 00:32:46,300
Like he taught me how to be
like, a warrior like young age.
559
00:32:46,300 --> 00:32:48,600
Doesn't matter.
Like you just put your head down
560
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,200
and work.
It wasn't.
561
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,600
It wasn't much technique to it,
but you were hitting people
562
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:58,500
every day with your head.
So and then Coach Rudi comes in
563
00:32:58,500 --> 00:33:02,000
and he's all technique.
So I mean I'm learning all the
564
00:33:02,300 --> 00:33:07,400
hand, placement feet placement
like everything.
565
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,300
I need to know to build me into
the complete.
566
00:33:09,300 --> 00:33:11,800
Lineman that makes sense.
But now say this could.
567
00:33:11,900 --> 00:33:16,200
Yeah so I mean you talked about
being a leader but you also play
568
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:21,700
along alongside your brother
there he was he got a lot of run
569
00:33:21,700 --> 00:33:25,700
last year at left guard.
What's it Like having your
570
00:33:25,700 --> 00:33:32,200
little brother on the team.
Just being able to play beside
571
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,300
him.
I know, is that something that
572
00:33:34,300 --> 00:33:36,400
you have kind of been
experiencing for a while and
573
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,100
it's just kind of a natural
progression or is it something
574
00:33:39,100 --> 00:33:43,500
that that takes getting used to?
Well, I mean when he started
575
00:33:43,500 --> 00:33:46,900
getting recruited, he's not
getting some big offers like,
576
00:33:46,900 --> 00:33:48,300
you know, bigger than mine
obviously.
577
00:33:48,500 --> 00:33:50,800
Yeah.
Like pit and you know, West
578
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,100
Virginia is.
I was like, I don't know.
579
00:33:52,100 --> 00:33:54,500
But I was basically like you
need to come here.
580
00:33:54,500 --> 00:33:56,800
Like you need to like be a part
of this because it's like we're
581
00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,700
building something.
But yeah, it's an awesome just
582
00:34:00,700 --> 00:34:03,200
like high school.
There's a chemistry there.
583
00:34:03,500 --> 00:34:05,600
We're basically like the same
person to me.
584
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,600
We have like the same
characteristics.
585
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,500
Like the same like everything.
Like what?
586
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,100
Laughs, that was the same thing.
Like I feel like our
587
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:15,400
aggressiveness is the same
thing.
588
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:16,699
Like, I don't know.
I feel like we're just the same
589
00:34:16,699 --> 00:34:20,500
person so it's just easy to like
be next to him because iron oh
590
00:34:20,500 --> 00:34:24,400
he's like he's going to do.
Man, I love hearing
591
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,600
aggressiveness and emptiness
because I can remember bronze
592
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:29,900
the tape near here.
I can't look at football team,
593
00:34:29,900 --> 00:34:33,000
but I don't have that skill
Braun does and I can remember
594
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,900
him.
Remember the first time you
595
00:34:34,908 --> 00:34:37,400
looked at Caden stay because
that was the like, one of our
596
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:42,199
first episodes like nasty
trials, people doesn't stop
597
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:44,699
until literally two seconds
after the whistle.
598
00:34:45,100 --> 00:34:48,000
And then when we recruited
Braylon it was just you said it
599
00:34:48,007 --> 00:34:50,000
was the same way.
Like so when I hear it's like
600
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:51,800
you're the same person on the
football field.
601
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,699
Y'all definitely.
ER, but playstyle definitely
602
00:34:54,699 --> 00:34:56,500
very similar.
So, I mean, I definitely tell
603
00:34:56,500 --> 00:35:03,000
you came from the same spot as
last year.
604
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,500
Y'all are on the field at the
same time.
605
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:08,500
And I know you've done that your
whole life, but when there's,
606
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,200
you know, a bust a big run and
you see it on tape.
607
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:12,600
And I know, I know that's
technical.
608
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,700
That's work for y'all.
But is there like a spot where
609
00:35:15,700 --> 00:35:18,200
it's like, oh, look at us.
Look at the, he got the combo,
610
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,900
he got up field.
I held the guy turned light.
611
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:24,100
What's that feel knowing That's
Blood on the other side, a
612
00:35:24,107 --> 00:35:28,800
little, it's definitely cool.
I mean, Sunday, is the day that
613
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:33,300
we come in and I'll watch like,
like the tape together as
614
00:35:33,300 --> 00:35:35,800
offensive line.
It's definitely cool to like see
615
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:40,500
him like progress because he
started here as a d lineman in
616
00:35:40,500 --> 00:35:41,100
the sun.
Yeah.
617
00:35:41,500 --> 00:35:43,600
They made him in or in the
spring and then they made him
618
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,300
into a whole Amin.
They brought him to the old one
619
00:35:47,900 --> 00:35:49,600
for the summer.
The spring summer.
620
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,500
Yeah.
And not see how much he's grown.
621
00:35:53,700 --> 00:35:55,800
Up to this point is this like
that's the best thing for me
622
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:59,400
like when he first got to wanna,
I mean I know he was gonna be
623
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,100
ready to block like you know,
like norell Pollard or Rio.
624
00:36:04,500 --> 00:36:07,200
But I mean he was ready.
I mean I don't know.
625
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,900
I feel like that's the best
thing just seeing this growth
626
00:36:08,900 --> 00:36:13,300
and see how mature he's become
and even like being like a Lily
627
00:36:13,700 --> 00:36:16,200
Young leader.
So I mean, I feel like Samson
628
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,200
and it's awesome.
I got.
629
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,600
Yeah, because he would have, you
would have picked it up pretty
630
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,100
quick because, you know, you
talk about eating those There's
631
00:36:23,100 --> 00:36:27,400
not a ton of of time to kind of
get that learning like spring is
632
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,900
when a lot of that install
happens when a lot of the kind
633
00:36:29,900 --> 00:36:32,300
of the building blocks are there
and he was a youth on defensive
634
00:36:32,300 --> 00:36:34,600
line that whole time.
So it's awesome.
635
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,500
Seeing how quick he was able to
pick that up and be a
636
00:36:36,500 --> 00:36:39,900
contributor his first year on
offensive line for the Hokies.
637
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:42,000
That's awesome.
Now, I have a question for you.
638
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,100
Did you were you and Coach Rudi?
Gudde, I'll see you saying.
639
00:36:45,100 --> 00:36:46,700
Listen, you got to get him over
here.
640
00:36:47,100 --> 00:36:51,500
You gotta give me.
I mean, I've seen some who spit
641
00:36:51,500 --> 00:36:53,500
on me.
Was that bad deal?
642
00:36:53,500 --> 00:36:56,800
I'm and I just felt like we
needed him at o-line more than
643
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,700
we need him at be like that
makes sense and I knew that he
644
00:36:59,700 --> 00:37:04,000
could like a potential starter
or even something we could plug
645
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,900
in and play early.
So I mean I feel like that it
646
00:37:06,900 --> 00:37:09,200
was just better for him and for
the team.
647
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,400
Yep, makes your team better
better opportunity for him to
648
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,800
get on the field quick.
So it's always a good thing.
649
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,200
Let's let's say as this.
So you know, we talked about the
650
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:21,700
offensive line room, a lot
already.
651
00:37:21,700 --> 00:37:24,700
So who's the funniest person in
the offensive line room right
652
00:37:24,700 --> 00:37:28,600
now?
Who funniest person offensive
653
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,700
wine room?
I mean I'm probably going to
654
00:37:31,300 --> 00:37:33,500
besides Braylon because that's
probably won't be dessert.
655
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,800
Okay.
Yeah, besides your brother.
656
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:41,100
Yeah.
And you can vote yourself if you
657
00:37:41,100 --> 00:37:46,600
want to.
I'll probably say Xavier Chapel,
658
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,200
I mean, it's a different humor
because he doesn't, he doesn't
659
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,000
talk that much.
So, I mean, you have to get to
660
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,200
know him for him to talk to you.
But once he opens up, he's
661
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,600
probably funniest Obama known
that our o-line is, he like
662
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,900
dropping the one-liners, like,
kind of in the background just
663
00:38:00,900 --> 00:38:03,300
like, yeah, Larry's one laundry.
Yeah.
664
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,500
This wasn't, this is not on the
run down list, but I have to ask
665
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:14,700
this, I told Brown, I was the
last this earlier today, all the
666
00:38:14,700 --> 00:38:19,100
offensive, lineman goes to an
all-you-can-eat buffet at the
667
00:38:19,100 --> 00:38:29,400
end, who has the plates stacked,
the highest It's the most who
668
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,500
eats the most on the offensive
line.
669
00:38:33,500 --> 00:38:38,700
I'm gonna have to go with either
Jack hollifield.
670
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:42,000
There we go.
He gained so much weight so
671
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,100
quickly.
Yeah, yeah.
672
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,900
Or ask because he's massive.
So I mean he has to eat a lot.
673
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,800
So it's either because how big
he is eggs or because Jacqueline
674
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:05,100
from what like a 250 tight end
to infection, yeah, Jack put in
675
00:39:05,100 --> 00:39:07,900
like 45 pounds since he got to
Blacksburg and I think he had
676
00:39:07,900 --> 00:39:11,300
put on ten or fifteen between
when he committed and when he
677
00:39:11,300 --> 00:39:17,100
got on campus, so he's like plus
60 since he signed, that's
678
00:39:17,100 --> 00:39:18,300
pretty cool.
That's pretty cool.
679
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,200
Let's let's ask this next so so
we'll keep it in the Lyman room.
680
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,200
What's the go to competitive
game in the Players Lounge?
681
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:32,900
Amongst the 0 line?
0 has to be Injustice on the PS
682
00:39:32,900 --> 00:39:36,400
5.
All right, so when we do Hunger
683
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:41,900
drills, we come in at 5:00 is
when they start and they usually
684
00:39:41,900 --> 00:39:47,000
end around like 8 and then we
have to work out groups, one at
685
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,400
8 and then want to 10.
So we have that whole entire
686
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:55,100
time until 10:00 to just do
whatever and we just go all the
687
00:39:55,100 --> 00:39:58,600
way up to the players on just
play, Injustice, or like play a.
688
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,200
And so I mean either Injustice
or MBA is definitely the game
689
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,100
that we play.
All right, here's the.
690
00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:05,700
Who's the the character of
choice for you and Injustice?
691
00:40:07,700 --> 00:40:11,700
I'm about to go with Scarecrow,
he got the, he got the the thing
692
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:14,300
with the chain on it.
So he goes far so I would have
693
00:40:14,300 --> 00:40:19,200
to go Documented scarecrow is
the Injustice character for
694
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:23,000
Kayden more, right?
So it's like this is
695
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,600
long-standing tradition for?
I think just about every
696
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,500
offensive lineman, or any player
we've ever interviewed here.
697
00:40:29,900 --> 00:40:33,700
We know that basketball is one
of those big kind of offseason
698
00:40:33,700 --> 00:40:35,800
stay in shape stay competitive
together.
699
00:40:36,500 --> 00:40:39,300
Who's the best Hooper in the
offensive line room.
700
00:40:42,500 --> 00:40:46,000
Last year, I would have, said
Silas, because he is like
701
00:40:46,100 --> 00:40:48,300
athletic.
Like, I never seen a big man
702
00:40:48,300 --> 00:40:53,600
dunk, like him, but on the old
line, I'd probably like nobody
703
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,300
because I've seen them all play,
and they're all really bad.
704
00:40:56,300 --> 00:41:03,500
So, yeah, yeah.
I see some clips of Xavier
705
00:41:03,900 --> 00:41:05,600
dunking.
Duncan, pretty good.
706
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,400
I don't know if he's got a got
any sort of other games?
707
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,800
Is he's a playmaker.
Or he can do anything else.
708
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,500
He can definitely throw it down
a little bit.
709
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,000
Yeah, he said he could dunk.
I'm not till I told him to go up
710
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,200
and dunk by me his knee.
Sorry, I don't know.
711
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:22,900
I don't know if he said, not
right now, not right now, I'll
712
00:41:22,900 --> 00:41:34,600
show off later.
What is your go-to spot in
713
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,900
Blacksburg?
Go to Blacksburg, got to be
714
00:41:37,900 --> 00:41:42,200
Chipotle.
Probably probably like three or
715
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,800
four times a week.
I have to love the boat with the
716
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:47,600
vinaigrette sauce.
What's the order?
717
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,500
What's the order?
I do a bowl?
718
00:41:51,300 --> 00:41:52,800
You want the whole order?
Just like what?
719
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,500
I get just just next to this,
the highlights just to highlight
720
00:41:55,900 --> 00:42:00,300
oh and I get a side tortilla and
I put the half of it in a
721
00:42:00,308 --> 00:42:05,200
tortilla and then I eat that and
I need to pull things they want
722
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,100
and basically That's the move
right there.
723
00:42:08,100 --> 00:42:09,400
That's always the mood talk to
you on.
724
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,100
The side is always the move, get
the bolt or t on the side.
725
00:42:12,500 --> 00:42:15,100
They said, they'd let you put
the tortilla on the side.
726
00:42:15,100 --> 00:42:18,200
And yeah, order the bowl, get a
tortilla, it's like 50 Cent or
727
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,100
something like seven, tortilla
on the side.
728
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,800
You can make your own burrito,
you make your own burrito, and
729
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,700
then you eat the bowl after
Jack.
730
00:42:24,700 --> 00:42:25,600
Thank you.
Thank you.
731
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,000
Find out talking to Tech
football players.
732
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,100
Okay, man.
Listen, best of luck getting
733
00:42:31,100 --> 00:42:32,800
through the west of winter
workouts.
734
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,700
Best of luck in the spring and
the fall.
735
00:42:34,700 --> 00:42:37,600
If we don't speak to you before
then, We really appreciate you
736
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,100
joining us here tonight.
Thank you so much for having me.
737
00:42:40,100 --> 00:42:42,600
I really appreciate you guys
having me and I had a definite
738
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,100
had a great time.
Appreciate you saying, you have
739
00:42:45,100 --> 00:42:46,100
a good one.
You're shitting me.
740
00:42:50,100 --> 00:42:54,100
And we're back.
Well, that was Caden more.
741
00:42:54,100 --> 00:42:59,300
He joined us last Thursday, we
got to chop it up with him for a
742
00:42:59,300 --> 00:43:01,200
little while there.
I hope, everyone enjoyed that,
743
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,500
any of you.
So, we're going to kind of,
744
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,500
we're gonna break things down a
little bit here, a little bit.
745
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,000
First of all, Brian, you didn't
tell me, you'd have Mike's, I'm
746
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,500
over here talking about a off.
And you've got to, um, use only
747
00:43:11,500 --> 00:43:15,200
cat that I was.
I was getting there.
748
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:18,300
Yeah.
Let's let's chat a few things.
749
00:43:19,300 --> 00:43:23,300
Obviously, some interesting
pieces brought up that No about.
750
00:43:23,300 --> 00:43:26,100
But I want to talk about this
first and from both of y'all who
751
00:43:26,100 --> 00:43:30,800
have played, you know, High
School, collegiate ball and I'll
752
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,700
pitch to Brian first because he
was the offensive lineman tally.
753
00:43:33,700 --> 00:43:37,100
I'm not not, not throw any other
bus, but I'm good with it.
754
00:43:37,100 --> 00:43:39,400
What he mentioned the difference
in the ol coaches.
755
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,400
When he talked about Vance,
Vice, really being a lot of
756
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:45,400
mentality driven versus Rudolph
being a technique.
757
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,000
Are you shocked Brian that there
were issues at that position
758
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,500
last year?
I'm not really shocked.
759
00:43:53,500 --> 00:43:57,700
So what it's telling me is that
there was a lot of things when
760
00:43:57,700 --> 00:44:00,300
Rudolph got in there and he was
like, all right, we got to kind
761
00:44:00,300 --> 00:44:03,400
of reset the reset Bud.
Get back to square one.
762
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,700
Little bit to build out the
technique because it sounds
763
00:44:06,700 --> 00:44:10,300
like, from from Rudolph's
perspective, he's going to be,
764
00:44:10,300 --> 00:44:13,800
he's going to give you the the
building blocks and then that's
765
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:15,200
when the mentality comes into
play.
766
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:19,000
Once you got all the building
blocks in place, whereas, in
767
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:22,200
sounds like, vices mentality was
go out there and be it.
768
00:44:22,300 --> 00:44:25,700
Dog.
And as long as you know the play
769
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,100
and you're going full speed will
work everything else out in the
770
00:44:29,100 --> 00:44:32,500
wash that's going to be get
worked out the film room or
771
00:44:32,500 --> 00:44:34,700
whatever.
So it sounds like there wasn't a
772
00:44:34,707 --> 00:44:39,100
whole lot of or at least, as
much kind of the building block
773
00:44:39,100 --> 00:44:41,600
techniques, you teenager.
He talked about hand placement
774
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,700
steps, things like that.
And, you know, a lot of that you
775
00:44:45,700 --> 00:44:48,400
learn in high school, but
there's, you know, when you're
776
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:53,100
Translating that into a new
system, Definitely need to kind
777
00:44:53,100 --> 00:44:57,900
of work on those those
Foundation techniques to really
778
00:44:57,900 --> 00:45:03,300
elevate your craft.
So I think a lot of that was Joe
779
00:45:03,300 --> 00:45:06,400
kind of turning things around
and saying, all right, we got to
780
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,600
get back to technique but then
some of the issues come in, when
781
00:45:11,100 --> 00:45:15,400
your brain, you're thinking too
much and you're not just kind of
782
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,600
getting where you need to go and
you saw it more with some
783
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,700
players and others.
I think, you know we talked
784
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:23,800
about it a lot here at Last
year, Watching game tape and
785
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,000
things like that.
Looks like people are thinking
786
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,300
too much, we talked about how
that led to a lot of the
787
00:45:29,300 --> 00:45:32,100
offsides we talked about how
that led to some Miss
788
00:45:32,100 --> 00:45:33,800
assignments and things like
that.
789
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:38,600
It's like sometimes when when
your brain is doing a little too
790
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,800
much your feet, don't do what
they need to do.
791
00:45:46,500 --> 00:45:48,300
Tell me what you got.
I mean you mentioned a little
792
00:45:48,300 --> 00:45:52,200
earlier day to us about you play
tight in online and you here
793
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:56,000
Brian you know Rudolph
techniques versus dog and you
794
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:59,200
are like, well, when you're on
the line there's everything
795
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:00,400
there's a million things going
on.
796
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:04,500
I see this a lot.
That's a lot going on that line,
797
00:46:04,500 --> 00:46:06,500
man.
Anybody who's ever been in the
798
00:46:06,508 --> 00:46:13,700
trenches and kind of, you know,
live that live that life, you
799
00:46:13,700 --> 00:46:16,800
got a million things going on,
you got What about calling
800
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,000
plays?
You got your Center column
801
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:23,400
plays, you got their linebacker,
moving their line, you got Lyman
802
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,100
that are telling each other,
where to twist and where to go,
803
00:46:27,500 --> 00:46:30,400
and then you got people to just
being assholes, just talking to
804
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:34,800
you from the other side.
So if you haven't been in that
805
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:38,200
world, you know, it's easy to
say, well, how do they jump
806
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,700
offsides?
But you haven't been down in
807
00:46:40,700 --> 00:46:41,900
there.
You don't catch all of that
808
00:46:41,900 --> 00:46:45,500
stuff on TV.
What you have a million people
809
00:46:45,500 --> 00:46:48,300
talking And a million people
moving.
810
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:54,600
And like Brian said, sometimes
it's just thinking too much
811
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,300
because you know what you're
supposed to do or you think you
812
00:46:57,300 --> 00:47:00,300
know what you're supposed to do
and something comes in and get
813
00:47:00,300 --> 00:47:04,900
you off of that or somebody
comes in and say something to
814
00:47:04,900 --> 00:47:08,100
you that you're just ready to
punch, you know?
815
00:47:08,100 --> 00:47:11,800
So it's a lot to goes on on that
line and I think we've seen it a
816
00:47:11,808 --> 00:47:14,900
lot of times what we had and I
don't even want to use the word
817
00:47:14,900 --> 00:47:18,800
young players, but we may have
had any experience players at
818
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:24,300
certain places that caused some
of the extra movements and
819
00:47:24,300 --> 00:47:29,100
things that we had, especially
if you hadn't had a coach to
820
00:47:29,100 --> 00:47:34,600
tell you, you got to your first
step has to, this hand has to
821
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:38,000
move with your first step, or
when you take this step, you
822
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,400
have to punch this way.
You just have some coaches.
823
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,000
Just say, hey, just go hit
somebody.
824
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:47,100
You know, but at the next level
I can't remember exactly which
825
00:47:47,100 --> 00:47:50,500
offensive lineman it was.
And I may have dreamed it, but I
826
00:47:50,500 --> 00:47:53,600
think somebody did an interview
and they talked and they said,
827
00:47:53,700 --> 00:47:58,100
when they went to the league
they had a they had to learn how
828
00:47:58,100 --> 00:48:01,200
to play like they had to learn
how to be office alignment.
829
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,900
Can't remember who it was, but I
need to do some research and
830
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,300
figure it out, but not talking
bad about Vice.
831
00:48:07,300 --> 00:48:10,200
I think he has some good stuff
but I don't think he was a very
832
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,100
technical coach, you know, you
gotta listen.
833
00:48:12,900 --> 00:48:14,800
Listen.
The Cadence interview.
834
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:20,000
He he pretty much told people
just go hit so and when you're
835
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,700
when you're running a lot more
that zone to I mean a lot of
836
00:48:22,707 --> 00:48:25,800
that's already taught in high
school so when you're a very
837
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:31,100
Zone heavy scheme you know a lot
of that probably came into play
838
00:48:31,100 --> 00:48:33,600
with why wasn't as tactical?
He's like all right well they
839
00:48:34,300 --> 00:48:38,300
these guys are coming in, I
recruited them from Zone systems
840
00:48:38,300 --> 00:48:41,200
that they played in high school
they more or less know
841
00:48:41,500 --> 00:48:43,200
technique-wise what they need to
do.
842
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:47,400
I need to get them from a
mentality standpoint to a level
843
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:51,500
where they can play against
Power, five players and that was
844
00:48:51,500 --> 00:48:54,600
probably how he approached it
and it sounds like Joe Rudolph
845
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,500
has a different perspective,
especially because we are
846
00:48:57,500 --> 00:49:02,600
bringing in more Gap schemes and
more complex blocking schemes
847
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:04,600
that that we're looking at a
front.
848
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,700
Now, you got to have technique
if you're going to do that.
849
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,600
That's tough.
Yeah, so just take me, just
850
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,200
hearing you talk about it.
It kind of makes sense that me.
851
00:49:13,300 --> 00:49:16,400
We did potentially see a
regression last year because
852
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,100
it's going out there from hey,
just go hit somebody to, Hey
853
00:49:19,100 --> 00:49:21,000
listen, you've got to do the
right steps.
854
00:49:21,500 --> 00:49:24,700
Because if we want to be the
most efficient unit, we've got
855
00:49:24,700 --> 00:49:27,300
to do the right little right
stuff, like y'all both said,
856
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,000
taking the right steps, putting
them hand placement, right?
857
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:34,400
And when you go from one
mentality of wide open and play
858
00:49:34,500 --> 00:49:38,400
to another mentality of
technical Robbie, put it up
859
00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,200
again.
Technical Focus will slow the
860
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,300
aggression at times.
It's, that's the truth and
861
00:49:42,300 --> 00:49:46,600
that's truthful.
Just Any line of work that you
862
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,200
put yourself into and even more,
so talked about moving bodies
863
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,000
and pushing people.
All right, let's let's go here.
864
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,000
Next time or let you leave this
tally.
865
00:49:54,300 --> 00:49:57,000
He just we discussed in the
interview with him about how he
866
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,600
is trying to become a leader in
that room.
867
00:49:59,900 --> 00:50:03,400
That's a big step.
He's a young player, but he's a
868
00:50:03,408 --> 00:50:09,200
three-year starter now, right?
Brian was ample numerous times
869
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:12,600
last year, he was probably the
most consistent got, he wasn't
870
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,800
the most dominant.
The time but you didn't see him
871
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,300
get killed if he did.
It was just a handful of times
872
00:50:18,300 --> 00:50:21,900
during the year, you think he
can become that Alpha?
873
00:50:23,100 --> 00:50:27,600
Yeah, of course.
I mean it comes down to, it's
874
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:31,100
not all about experience but it
is a little about experience.
875
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:35,800
You know, when we go back to
talking about just knowing what
876
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:40,000
to do in certain positions or
even, he's been there for three
877
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,100
years.
He's been, you know, a couple of
878
00:50:43,100 --> 00:50:46,700
days, DC schools a couple of
times and he knows how those
879
00:50:46,700 --> 00:50:49,900
environments are.
So he's able to pass that along
880
00:50:49,900 --> 00:50:53,800
to the other guys on the team,
and he's played a couple of
881
00:50:53,808 --> 00:50:56,900
different positions.
You know, he's, he's practice
882
00:50:56,900 --> 00:50:59,800
and moved and done a couple of
different things on the line.
883
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,000
So just the fact that he's done
that.
884
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,000
Well, he'll help him become a
leader.
885
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,100
He seems like a smart kid to
like offensive lineman.
886
00:51:11,100 --> 00:51:13,200
I mean, I know maybe on the old
shows and stuff.
887
00:51:13,300 --> 00:51:14,700
Tough.
When they talk about somebody
888
00:51:14,700 --> 00:51:18,000
being a dumb jock, maybe have a
brute to just do.
889
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,700
I don't know what to do.
You don't see very many offense
890
00:51:20,700 --> 00:51:22,500
of lineman that just dumb.
You know.
891
00:51:22,500 --> 00:51:25,200
Like offensive linemen used are
pretty smart guys.
892
00:51:25,500 --> 00:51:31,300
So they that I think that from
talking to him and seeing him
893
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,300
play, I think he can.
I think he can take that next
894
00:51:34,300 --> 00:51:37,300
step to become that leader, but
it all comes down to, you have
895
00:51:37,300 --> 00:51:40,500
different leaders, but it all
comes down to what you do on
896
00:51:40,500 --> 00:51:45,500
that field to this.
Get you to the leadership role
897
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:49,300
by?
Yeah, I agree there and I think
898
00:51:49,300 --> 00:51:52,000
the big thing until he pointed
to it a little bit but the big
899
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,100
thing is is that he has a
three-year starter at this
900
00:51:55,100 --> 00:51:58,700
point, so when defense or
showing a look or they're
901
00:51:58,700 --> 00:52:02,700
showing a blitz or they're
shifting, there's probably not a
902
00:52:02,700 --> 00:52:05,600
whole lot of things that they're
doing in a game that he hasn't
903
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:09,300
seen.
So he can translate that to
904
00:52:09,300 --> 00:52:11,600
other guys that may have less
experience.
905
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:16,100
So that's the big thing for me.
Me and also again with with that
906
00:52:16,100 --> 00:52:19,900
experience comes confidence and
with confidence, come the
907
00:52:19,900 --> 00:52:24,100
ability for others to look to
you to gain confidence, right?
908
00:52:24,100 --> 00:52:26,500
So if he can step into that
role, even if it's just by
909
00:52:26,500 --> 00:52:29,300
example but if he's moving to
Center, he's going to have to
910
00:52:29,300 --> 00:52:31,100
have some of that local
leadership as well.
911
00:52:31,100 --> 00:52:33,600
So he's going to beat need to be
making the calls, she's going to
912
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:36,500
be baking the shift so there's
going to be a lot of things
913
00:52:36,500 --> 00:52:39,300
where he's going to have to be
vocal but there's going to also
914
00:52:39,300 --> 00:52:41,700
be areas where he's going to
need to lead by example as well,
915
00:52:41,700 --> 00:52:43,100
right?
Rommel for the back to you.
916
00:52:43,300 --> 00:52:46,800
Quit because when he dropped
that on us, when we were sitting
917
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,200
there he's like yeah I've been
getting ready to roll over and
918
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,200
been practicing centers.
Just like dude you were an
919
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:56,500
All-American Right Guard like
freshman All-American, Right
920
00:52:56,500 --> 00:52:58,900
Guard and they want you to go
play center.
921
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,100
I mean, let me, let me get both
y'all thoughts on that because
922
00:53:03,100 --> 00:53:07,800
it's just like, it makes me feel
better because we were worried
923
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:11,400
about Cinderella who can play.
If he can snap the ball, we know
924
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:13,000
that man can play offensive
line.
925
00:53:13,300 --> 00:53:17,100
We know that, but that's a,
that's a big step.
926
00:53:17,100 --> 00:53:23,200
But I mean we all think now goes
to the same thing as you saying,
927
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:27,300
him being a leader, you know,
your Center is your leader,
928
00:53:28,300 --> 00:53:31,200
nothing happens until the center
snaps the ball.
929
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,500
You know, the center is making a
lot of calls there in the middle
930
00:53:34,500 --> 00:53:38,400
so I mean if he stepping up to
be the alpha dog, to be the
931
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,600
leader.
I mean centers a good place to
932
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,700
start it, you know.
He's getting everybody in line.
933
00:53:44,700 --> 00:53:48,300
He's been there for a while and
like you said, it just comes
934
00:53:48,300 --> 00:53:51,700
down to the exchange.
If he can snap the ball, we know
935
00:53:51,700 --> 00:53:55,200
it can play offensive line.
It just comes down to, you know,
936
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:59,200
how those snaps look last year.
Sometimes Johnny was, he was
937
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,300
skipping skipping the rock back
there, you know what I mean?
938
00:54:02,300 --> 00:54:06,000
So we got to be able to get the
ball to the quarterback.
939
00:54:07,100 --> 00:54:07,600
Yeah.
Got it.
940
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,800
Got to be able to snap the ball,
but as you said, Sally, I mean,
941
00:54:10,100 --> 00:54:13,100
by default and I've said this to
Curtis many times.
942
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:16,300
By default your Sinners going to
have to have some sort of
943
00:54:16,308 --> 00:54:20,300
leadership role on the offensive
line, even if he's not the alpha
944
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:22,900
he's got to have some sort of
leadership because when he barks
945
00:54:22,900 --> 00:54:27,100
you got to listen.
So that's good that he's sliding
946
00:54:27,100 --> 00:54:30,100
to that role because now he can
kind of approach it from being
947
00:54:30,100 --> 00:54:33,600
the guy and also the guy that
you're listening to from a check
948
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:38,300
and call standpoint, I think
this is good overall we had
949
00:54:38,300 --> 00:54:41,900
talked about, you know, either
him or just a handsome being
950
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:45,400
potentially the The guys that
might slide into that role since
951
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:49,300
we didn't see any sort of
movement of getting a starting
952
00:54:49,300 --> 00:54:52,100
caliber Center in the transfer
portal at least in the first
953
00:54:52,100 --> 00:54:56,200
wave there.
So we kind of we kind of figured
954
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,700
it was going to be one of those
two just because that gives you
955
00:54:58,700 --> 00:55:01,700
at least year your opportunity
to put your five best on the
956
00:55:01,700 --> 00:55:04,900
field.
But again, if you had to pick
957
00:55:04,900 --> 00:55:07,200
one, I think, Cadence probably
the better choice, just because
958
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:10,300
he is the guy that I think folks
are going to look to from that
959
00:55:10,300 --> 00:55:12,700
leadership role to begin with.
So it's better to kind of have
960
00:55:12,700 --> 00:55:16,100
that As your your trigger man
there in the middle and that's
961
00:55:16,100 --> 00:55:19,100
so much about the things that we
don't see behind the scenes, who
962
00:55:19,100 --> 00:55:20,400
knows?
They might have been asking him
963
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:24,200
to try snapping the ball during
practice last year, right?
964
00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:26,300
Like hey go take 10 reps
snapping the ball.
965
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,300
We don't get to see that.
So and we see the portal.
966
00:55:29,300 --> 00:55:31,700
Why are we taking a center while
we taken somebody that can
967
00:55:31,700 --> 00:55:33,400
really help this offense in
line?
968
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:37,300
When in reality, it might be
he's been working on it and
969
00:55:37,300 --> 00:55:39,600
we've got Johnny, we know Johnny
can play center.
970
00:55:39,900 --> 00:55:42,100
We're gonna let came focus on
guard but he's going to work.
971
00:55:42,100 --> 00:55:45,300
He's at work at snapping, he's a
Some of those techniques that we
972
00:55:45,300 --> 00:55:50,100
need to do during our practice
sessions because we heard what
973
00:55:50,100 --> 00:55:53,000
several times price say.
Hey we wouldn't let some of the
974
00:55:53,008 --> 00:55:54,900
young guys go out there and
fully scrimmage.
975
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:58,500
Who knows maybe came ordering
some of those scrimmages Kane's
976
00:55:58,500 --> 00:56:00,800
going to be Center.
He's in Black too and snap the
977
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:02,900
ball to guys.
We don't know that any things
978
00:56:02,900 --> 00:56:05,700
behind the scenes, we can't see,
right?
979
00:56:05,700 --> 00:56:07,400
But then we see things like
this.
980
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:12,300
And I mean for us like I love,
he said it to us, he wasn't
981
00:56:12,300 --> 00:56:14,400
afraid.
And that's another thing I love
982
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,700
about Brent pry.
Players aren't afraid to have
983
00:56:16,700 --> 00:56:19,600
conversations with other
individuals who had a lie?
984
00:56:20,100 --> 00:56:22,200
Yeah.
And the thing is, like, it
985
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:26,500
happens more than people see,
it's not a sexy position, the
986
00:56:26,500 --> 00:56:30,600
lion guard Center is not a sexy
position.
987
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,300
People don't pay attention to
it, as much as they pay
988
00:56:33,300 --> 00:56:35,600
attention to the quarterback a
wide receiver, or a running
989
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:39,100
back, but you have a lot of
linemen that move around and
990
00:56:39,100 --> 00:56:43,100
play different positions.
I mean, of course I'm a Alabama.
991
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,300
Not Alabama fan but I'm Alabama
guy.
992
00:56:46,300 --> 00:56:49,600
So I watch them battle member
football Alabama had think it
993
00:56:49,607 --> 00:56:55,300
was maybe like 2010 or 11.
Don't quote me on that.
994
00:56:55,300 --> 00:56:57,200
We can do some research and find
out for sure.
995
00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:02,400
But they had Barrett Jones I
think was the offensive lineman
996
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:04,700
there.
He won two different Awards to
997
00:57:04,700 --> 00:57:06,700
be the best.
He was like the best tackle,
998
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,700
then the best center him.
Like the year, they won the
999
00:57:09,700 --> 00:57:12,700
championship and whatever year
it was maybe like 2012 or
1000
00:57:12,700 --> 00:57:15,800
something.
And and they usually play all
1001
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:21,000
those positions and Barrett
Jones and also he he had like a
1002
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:25,200
4.0 while doing all this.
Like I said offensive lineman
1003
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:28,100
are very heady.
And if they are asking you to
1004
00:57:28,100 --> 00:57:30,900
play a couple of different
positions, I'm sure if we looked
1005
00:57:30,900 --> 00:57:35,200
up Caden Moore's grades, he's
probably one of the best on the
1006
00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,600
team, probably, one of the best
on the team as far as grades go
1007
00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,900
because it's not easy to be down
on the line and learn all those
1008
00:57:41,900 --> 00:57:44,400
positions.
So, all right, Do you know how
1009
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,200
to jump off of this too?
Because I just put something on
1010
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,500
there for that.
Robbie talked about, you have it
1011
00:57:50,500 --> 00:57:51,900
all.
All of his guys practice
1012
00:57:51,900 --> 00:57:54,900
Staffing at some points of their
potentially, in an emergency
1013
00:57:54,900 --> 00:57:58,900
situation, ready to roll and
tally can speak to this as well.
1014
00:57:58,900 --> 00:58:02,500
But you know, one of the things
that we always did, you know, we
1015
00:58:02,500 --> 00:58:05,000
were expected to be at the
practice field 15 minutes before
1016
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:09,100
the start of practice because
offensive lineman were snapping
1017
00:58:09,100 --> 00:58:12,800
the ball to any and all people,
that handle the ball.
1018
00:58:13,100 --> 00:58:14,700
From a quarterback or
perspective.
1019
00:58:14,700 --> 00:58:17,500
So you know you had guys that
you know you had your two or
1020
00:58:17,500 --> 00:58:20,500
three guys that were in the 3D
snap to the quarterback.
1021
00:58:20,500 --> 00:58:23,600
So then other guys will take
turns in that same rotation and
1022
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:27,200
work on snapping for emergency
situations because there are a
1023
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:29,700
lot of times you know as much as
you don't want to do it.
1024
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:33,300
You know if you get a couple
guys go down you don't
1025
00:58:33,300 --> 00:58:35,200
necessarily want your
third-string Center out there.
1026
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,600
You might want to, you know,
slide slide, slide of guard over
1027
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:41,200
in there and work another.
Another car into the rotation
1028
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:45,800
from that from that too deep.
So Having guys that can snap,
1029
00:58:45,900 --> 00:58:49,300
that aren't necessarily, you
know, got the see next to their
1030
00:58:49,300 --> 00:58:53,100
name in the in the program.
That's not never a bad idea.
1031
00:58:53,100 --> 00:58:55,700
So if this is something that
he's probably worked on to some
1032
00:58:55,700 --> 00:58:59,900
degree you know before this
discussion happened at the end
1033
00:58:59,900 --> 00:59:01,900
of the season.
Absolutely.
1034
00:59:01,900 --> 00:59:03,700
Alright.
Well real quick y'all.
1035
00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:08,500
Braun Telly last time.
So you get to lead it this time
1036
00:59:08,500 --> 00:59:14,100
who's your right now, as we sit,
who's your five on the line, you
1037
00:59:14,100 --> 00:59:16,400
don't have to put where they're
going to be chaplain.
1038
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:19,400
Hanson more.
More Garrett.
1039
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:23,400
I always, I know, you can go
Johnny, don't you kick Parker?
1040
00:59:23,500 --> 00:59:26,200
He kick Parker out.
Parker made him mad last year.
1041
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,900
What about you Talan?
I got a I mean, I hate to just
1042
00:59:28,900 --> 00:59:32,600
say the exact same that he said,
I would probably put Clemens in
1043
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:36,100
now seeing him on a couple of
little List this year, working
1044
00:59:36,100 --> 00:59:38,800
out in a couple of things.
So because he has some
1045
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:43,300
experience I give him a little
bit of edge over chaplain or
1046
00:59:43,500 --> 00:59:46,100
Garrett, not sure which one just
yet.
1047
00:59:46,500 --> 00:59:49,800
But I feel like they're going to
have him start in there.
1048
00:59:50,100 --> 00:59:53,200
How long he's in there?
I don't know, but I feel like
1049
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:54,400
he's gonna be in there
somewhere.
1050
00:59:54,700 --> 00:59:56,400
The more Brothers definitely
gone.
1051
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,200
I think they got some good stuff
coming for us this year.
1052
00:59:59,300 --> 01:00:02,100
Yeah, I'm with Tally, I think
clemont's right now over again
1053
01:00:02,100 --> 01:00:05,200
because of the experience and
just Those of those last few
1054
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:10,300
games, you said Prime set it on
here Clements hasn't looked as
1055
01:00:10,300 --> 01:00:13,700
bad as he did earlier in the
season, like something clicked,
1056
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,900
with Joe teaching technique.
So, I'm with Talia because that
1057
01:00:16,900 --> 01:00:18,900
was, that was my marked.
Praise at the end of it.
1058
01:00:18,900 --> 01:00:21,400
Was he Market?
He said, he's not standing out
1059
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:26,500
as bad anymore and right now.
So, all right, tally, we going,
1060
01:00:26,500 --> 01:00:29,400
we're going.
So we send this video to tally
1061
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:33,400
because he wasn't able to join
us in almost the first thing out
1062
01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:36,900
into a lie.
The text was not about the
1063
01:00:36,900 --> 01:00:40,500
center or the coaching Styles.
Go ahead tally.
1064
01:00:40,500 --> 01:00:43,100
He got a rant Holtz.
Hey what is it?
1065
01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:50,900
Who eats that shit?
I don't understand when we.
1066
01:00:50,900 --> 01:00:57,200
All right so where I work is on
like a major highway or major
1067
01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:59,800
road here.
Yeah and you can get pretty much
1068
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:03,200
anything within 10 minutes like
go this way you get Popeyes go.
1069
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:04,800
That way you get Donald's.
Go that way.
1070
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,900
You get Texas Roadhouse, go that
way.
1071
01:01:06,900 --> 01:01:10,400
You get Longhorns.
There's a Chipotle somewhere in
1072
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:12,600
that.
Nobody ever says, hey, let's go
1073
01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:14,900
get your boat.
If everybody, you know why?
1074
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:19,200
Because it's horrible, it's
horrible fate that one time in
1075
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:24,200
my life and it came out of both
ends and I was done.
1076
01:01:24,700 --> 01:01:28,100
I want to never touch it again
but besides that it just didn't
1077
01:01:28,100 --> 01:01:31,200
taste good like it.
I don't know, man.
1078
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,800
I want to maybe I need to give
it a try in a Another state or
1079
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,800
another place.
But I was saying I was saying
1080
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:59,100
and I was done after
the tally ho.
1081
01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:34,800
Real quick.
Let's talk about tech pulse to
1082
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:38,600
Miami tonight. 7670 and I'm
probably more irritated.
1083
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:41,600
But anything is because that we
were sitting here before we got
1084
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:45,800
on what I tell you, you and
Robbie going to get along today.
1085
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:51,000
All me, so we fought to Miami.
We shoot better from the field
1086
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:52,900
than them.
We shoot better from three
1087
01:02:52,900 --> 01:02:55,800
points in them.
They do get us in free throws,
1088
01:02:56,600 --> 01:03:01,200
but, you know, let's just not
just this game, they beat UVA,
1089
01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:05,300
we'd beat BC.
Or lose to BC beat Notre Dame,
1090
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:09,200
struggle with them bad team,
lose Georgia Tech which just
1091
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:11,700
made Callie infuriated because
he watched that game.
1092
01:03:11,900 --> 01:03:15,900
We didn't enough meat number one
team in the ACC and we hang with
1093
01:03:15,900 --> 01:03:18,300
probably the best team in the
ACC tonight.
1094
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:20,200
Can y'all make any sense of this
team?
1095
01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:24,300
No, no, no.
It is so frustrating.
1096
01:03:24,300 --> 01:03:26,500
You know, talking with so many
people out there.
1097
01:03:26,500 --> 01:03:30,300
It's just like it's Dougie had
said it.
1098
01:03:30,300 --> 01:03:32,400
The other week, this is the best
good.
1099
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:34,300
This is the worst good team I've
ever seen.
1100
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:40,600
Yep, it makes little to no snow
and no sense Fury getting to
1101
01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:43,300
watch because, you know, we look
at it and relay.
1102
01:03:43,300 --> 01:03:47,900
All right.
Well, if this team could beat BC
1103
01:03:47,900 --> 01:03:50,200
which they should, if this team
can beat Georgia Tech course
1104
01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:54,400
they should if this team could
just win a road game here or
1105
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:58,800
there that's all you have to do
that.
1106
01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:01,600
Like those are three easy
hurdles to clear but we we have
1107
01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:04,400
not been able to clear them the
meanwhile we get you know you
1108
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:06,000
Get a win.
I get UVA.
1109
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:07,600
You're able to pull a win at
Pitt.
1110
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:11,000
Like what?
What's going on like, say
1111
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:15,100
Italian old many.
So yeah, you got so many games
1112
01:04:15,100 --> 01:04:18,400
and basketball that people don't
like football.
1113
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:23,300
People pay attention to the
losses and basketball is like
1114
01:04:23,300 --> 01:04:28,500
you get a pass because you've
got 30 fucking games and if
1115
01:04:28,500 --> 01:04:30,700
you've played 30 different
teams, you're going to beat a
1116
01:04:30,700 --> 01:04:35,300
top 25 team and I have people
arguing with me Saying because I
1117
01:04:35,308 --> 01:04:39,900
don't I think Mike young is a is
a great fit for Virginia Tech
1118
01:04:40,300 --> 01:04:44,200
but at the same time it's like
whenever we lose a game, we're
1119
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,300
not supposed to.
I'm going to say it's his fault
1120
01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:50,900
because I'm looking at the team
and they're watching rebounds,
1121
01:04:50,900 --> 01:04:53,800
bounce right beside them or
we're throwing the ball to the
1122
01:04:53,808 --> 01:04:57,100
other team.
Like if the football team loses
1123
01:04:57,100 --> 01:05:00,800
by one point, they're going at
the coach every single time.
1124
01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:06,800
Basketball team loses and it's
like, well, they just they beat
1125
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:09,900
us today.
I'm like, no it the effort was
1126
01:05:09,900 --> 01:05:13,800
different today than it was.
When we go against top talent,
1127
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:17,300
we bring our top game.
When we go against
1128
01:05:17,300 --> 01:05:20,400
middle-of-the-road teams, we
come with middle-of-the-road
1129
01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:23,600
effort, you know, Miami's a good
basketball team.
1130
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:28,200
We lost by 16 points.
Yeah so not saying that that
1131
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:31,100
doesn't hurt.
Now in our Where We Are.
1132
01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:33,700
Our.
But if we had, one knows games
1133
01:05:33,700 --> 01:05:35,300
of teams, we were supposed to
be.
1134
01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:38,600
And I'm using are quotations
because every game is different.
1135
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:41,300
But if we don't win those games,
against the Georgia Tech's, and
1136
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:46,900
the be seized, when one of their
best players gets hurt, we the
1137
01:05:47,100 --> 01:05:50,800
the Miami losses don't hurt you,
you know, going into tournament
1138
01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:55,700
play going into trying to get
into the into the tournament but
1139
01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:58,600
it's baseball season now.
Yeah, I might as well quit
1140
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:02,800
talking basketball.
And I believe the baseball team
1141
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,100
did win today, which we're going
to hit on some of the next
1142
01:06:05,100 --> 01:06:07,900
upcoming weeks.
We will have Shelton on talk
1143
01:06:07,900 --> 01:06:09,400
about that we're going to be
paying attention to it.
1144
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:12,900
Obviously a couple other quick
things to talk about Hoops wise,
1145
01:06:13,100 --> 01:06:17,000
the women Shelton said it on
this program couple weeks ago.
1146
01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:19,700
This team can be in the lead 18
and I'm going to tell you.
1147
01:06:20,300 --> 01:06:22,400
I've watched a couple games here
and there.
1148
01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:26,600
There's sometimes tough to find
women for the first time at NC
1149
01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:28,600
State against a ranked Tennessee
State team.
1150
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,100
And then beating three ranked,
they've won four straight.
1151
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:35,000
Teams against top 20 ranked
teams this team like
1152
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:39,400
legitimately if this keeps
going, there's your best shot to
1153
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:41,500
be watching basketball in the
late.
1154
01:06:41,500 --> 01:06:44,900
March or the ladies week, Italy
and door and they went out there
1155
01:06:44,900 --> 01:06:50,800
and just Steve it to FSU and do
it wasn't, it wasn't even a
1156
01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:54,000
contest.
I mean, Duke Duke won the
1157
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,700
contest.
At the end of one, they had a
1158
01:06:58,700 --> 01:07:03,700
lead and it was just they kept.
Had it, you know, Duke got a few
1159
01:07:03,900 --> 01:07:07,300
few garbage, time things in the
fourth quarter, to make it look
1160
01:07:07,300 --> 01:07:09,500
a little closer than was but
that won the game for three
1161
01:07:09,500 --> 01:07:13,700
quarters.
Yeah, can you brought in some
1162
01:07:13,700 --> 01:07:17,400
good heat, but he brought in
some good transfers, you know,
1163
01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:21,700
this past year as well and some
of the, some of the young ladies
1164
01:07:21,700 --> 01:07:25,400
that he brought in were high
contributors on the teams that
1165
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:28,700
they came from.
It was power, 5 experience as
1166
01:07:28,700 --> 01:07:31,600
well.
And basketball is a little bit
1167
01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:34,000
different.
So I don't 100% pay attention to
1168
01:07:34,500 --> 01:07:37,000
where people come from to where
they're going.
1169
01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:40,900
Because it takes one, man to be
a, have a good basketball teams.
1170
01:07:40,900 --> 01:07:43,100
True.
You like, you can recruit one
1171
01:07:43,100 --> 01:07:45,500
player and he can play
basketball better than everybody
1172
01:07:45,500 --> 01:07:49,000
else on the court and he can
beat the other team by himself.
1173
01:07:49,500 --> 01:07:52,400
I mean, it's a team sport, but
if LeBron plays
1174
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:57,000
eighteen-year-old, LeBron goes
to the Hokies right now.
1175
01:07:57,600 --> 01:08:00,000
How many, how many times did
that team lose?
1176
01:08:00,500 --> 01:08:04,200
Not many very few, very few, not
many two or three.
1177
01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,300
We probably lost the, we
probably lose the BC because we
1178
01:08:07,300 --> 01:08:12,900
can't be sleeping.
Takes one or two things like, in
1179
01:08:12,900 --> 01:08:16,399
basketball is much different
than any other sport because
1180
01:08:16,399 --> 01:08:20,500
it's so individualized.
But back to the Women's
1181
01:08:20,500 --> 01:08:23,600
Basketball team, they already
had a couple of good players
1182
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:28,200
like from last year.
He'll enjoy Grand getting the
1183
01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:32,300
kidney is awesome and then they
bring in those transfers just to
1184
01:08:32,300 --> 01:08:35,800
give that team dipped and they
look good man.
1185
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:38,300
It looks it.
Like you said, it looks like our
1186
01:08:38,300 --> 01:08:40,700
best shot to watch so many for
basketball.
1187
01:08:42,100 --> 01:08:44,899
Late in the March, so I'll be
excited to see.
1188
01:08:44,899 --> 01:08:46,700
I mean, I'm going, I'm going to
be cheering.
1189
01:08:46,700 --> 01:08:51,000
Like, hell, did they go deep
into the into the tournament?
1190
01:08:51,399 --> 01:08:53,300
Hopefully, we don't get a
matchup in the first round like
1191
01:08:53,300 --> 01:08:56,800
we had last year somebody team
shooting 60% from three.
1192
01:08:56,899 --> 01:09:00,300
Yeah, well you listen there,
there ain't there is only a
1193
01:09:00,300 --> 01:09:03,700
handful of teams that can handle
that barrage keeps you 60
1194
01:09:03,700 --> 01:09:06,000
percent from three?
Just about every team in the
1195
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:08,300
country is losing one last
piece.
1196
01:09:08,300 --> 01:09:12,800
Not who but wrestling.
Since we've last been on here,
1197
01:09:12,899 --> 01:09:16,800
crushing you trusting UNC
crushing UVA getting the co
1198
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:20,000
regular season Champions.
So hanging another Banner the
1199
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:25,200
ACC Championship is in a couple
weeks and as much as to me like
1200
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:30,000
similar to basketball, like the
rustling, oh it's an ACC
1201
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:31,100
Championship.
This is being.
1202
01:09:31,100 --> 01:09:35,800
It's like yeah but we're really
like it's almost like when we
1203
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,800
are really good team like okay
we're a really good team.
1204
01:09:39,899 --> 01:09:43,600
What is this even matter?
Like there's a five or six seven
1205
01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:46,899
guys that are going to go to the
Nationals, there's a bigger goal
1206
01:09:46,899 --> 01:09:50,800
in mind for this much, right?
Because didn't makka got hurt
1207
01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,000
last year in the ACC tournament,
right?
1208
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:54,800
Yeah.
He got hurt.
1209
01:09:54,900 --> 01:09:57,500
You know, Screw his change win a
National Title.
1210
01:09:57,500 --> 01:10:01,600
So I think it's awesome.
That the team is that good.
1211
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:05,700
It's one of those interesting
Sports to watch on TV and you
1212
01:10:05,700 --> 01:10:07,700
know people saying watching it
live.
1213
01:10:07,700 --> 01:10:10,100
You get that hype.
When you know The match is going
1214
01:10:10,100 --> 01:10:14,800
on so I'm going to obviously
will pay attention to who goes
1215
01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:19,000
to Nationals talk about that.
I may attempt to get my buddy
1216
01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:22,900
David on here to talk with us 10
minutes, we might have to do a
1217
01:10:22,907 --> 01:10:26,500
little recording session.
He is a CPA, not the best time
1218
01:10:26,500 --> 01:10:31,900
of year to ask that maintenance,
so tax season.
1219
01:10:32,100 --> 01:10:35,300
Yeah.
So the wrestling the head
1220
01:10:35,300 --> 01:10:37,600
wrestling coach got paid didn't?
Yes, he did.
1221
01:10:37,900 --> 01:10:43,300
He got hit.
He got dibs on him at PK, get on
1222
01:10:43,300 --> 01:10:44,400
him.
Yeah.
1223
01:10:44,700 --> 01:10:48,400
Hey you cheated wings and beers
on Tony Rhodey.
1224
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:52,900
Yeah, always be on Tony.
And, but Hey, listen your top
1225
01:10:52,900 --> 01:10:55,000
ten program, guys went to
Nationals.
1226
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:56,800
They want guys to go to it
Olympics.
1227
01:10:57,100 --> 01:11:01,100
You know what pay him because
that's becoming a spectator
1228
01:11:01,100 --> 01:11:03,500
sport.
People are paying money to go
1229
01:11:03,500 --> 01:11:06,400
watch those things.
It's making, it's probably one
1230
01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:09,100
of the sports that's close to
paying for itself.
1231
01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:12,800
The year because getting TV
revenues from going to National
1232
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:17,800
Title, plus putting, you know,
for 5,000 people in Castle like
1233
01:11:17,900 --> 01:11:20,400
paying their, they're doing a
good job with fundraising to.
1234
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:24,000
So yes, they are combined that.
I mean, they're they're breaking
1235
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:28,000
even probably or pretty darn
close to home right now.
1236
01:11:28,100 --> 01:11:35,200
And once you have a non revenues
Fort breaking even all the money
1237
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:37,600
that usually said to them stays
with the football program.
1238
01:11:38,500 --> 01:11:40,600
In an extra, you know, two
three, four hundred thousand
1239
01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:45,300
dollars, you can pay analysts
you know, can pump the coaches,
1240
01:11:45,300 --> 01:11:47,500
salaries up a little bit, I hear
ya.
1241
01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:52,100
All right, so before we going to
be flipping back to football and
1242
01:11:52,100 --> 01:11:55,100
get into some more topics
tonight, but before that we are

01:12:19,500 --> 01:12:24,600
Now back to the episode.
I so back to football talk and
1253
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:28,400
we're going to finally put a cap
on the 24 class in a few weeks,
1254
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:33,100
we're going to bring mattei from

But there was one more guy that
1256
01:12:37,100 --> 01:12:40,700
committed.
On Signing Day, the traditional
1257
01:12:40,700 --> 01:12:43,500
sign and day and that was James
jannetty.
1258
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:50,100
Six-foot-five 225-pound Edge.
Originally from Durham, North
1259
01:12:50,100 --> 01:12:51,600
Carolina.
Actually I think you played at
1260
01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:55,200
Northside, I'll have to confirm
that bridge.
1261
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:59,100
Ali went to William and Mary
then transfer to a Juco and now
1262
01:12:59,100 --> 01:13:02,700
he's with the Hokies.
Pretty, highly regarded Yuko as
1263
01:13:02,700 --> 01:13:06,100
well.
A top ten National four-star.
1264
01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:12,000
The top Edge in Juco, y'all
decide.
1265
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:14,100
Amongst yourself who's talking
first about this young, man?
1266
01:13:14,900 --> 01:13:20,300
Well, I mean again, like looking
at, I'm not a coach, I'm not a
1267
01:13:20,300 --> 01:13:23,900
recruiter, I'm a fan.
So when I look at stuff, I look
1268
01:13:23,900 --> 01:13:28,500
at a couple things and one thing
we lacked for a long time is
1269
01:13:28,500 --> 01:13:35,400
freaking size.
I got so tired of recruiting 511
1270
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:39,200
defensive ends, you know?
Like, come on man.
1271
01:13:40,500 --> 01:13:45,700
Seeing somebody, that's 65
seeing somebody that's 64 66 on
1272
01:13:45,700 --> 01:13:49,000
the line, makes me feel good.
I don't know how good he's going
1273
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:53,200
to be, you know, everybody had
their opinions about what they
1274
01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:56,100
thought about it.
Oh you don't have a ranking.
1275
01:13:56,100 --> 01:13:58,700
Oh he's he doesn't have this and
then boom.
1276
01:13:58,700 --> 01:14:00,700
They said we we think he's a
four-star dinner.
1277
01:14:00,900 --> 01:14:03,100
Buddy goes whoa well how did we
get him?
1278
01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:05,500
Probably got to do with his
size.
1279
01:14:05,500 --> 01:14:06,900
He's bigger than everybody's
playing.
1280
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:10,700
Probably a little bit faster
than them so maybe he can come
1281
01:14:10,700 --> 01:14:14,000
over here and turn up.
So again, I like to do
1282
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:19,600
comparisons when you're talking
players not same player, not
1283
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:26,900
same body, but kind of the same
body of work as came, right in
1284
01:14:26,900 --> 01:14:30,800
my head and then left what we
got in from Juco, didn't he?
1285
01:14:30,900 --> 01:14:32,700
Just got drafted to the
Panthers.
1286
01:14:32,700 --> 01:14:35,500
Oh I'm sorry.
Barney Barney.
1287
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:38,900
Yeah, st.
I feel like it could be a bar.
1288
01:14:38,900 --> 01:14:41,800
No Type move, you know.
Get in the weight room get
1289
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:45,000
stronger.
Stepping in learn how to play
1290
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:48,200
the position.
Sky's the limit.
1291
01:14:48,400 --> 01:14:52,500
Yep, I was looking at him.
I feel like he's about 15 pounds
1292
01:14:52,500 --> 01:14:54,900
away from being kind of what you
want him to be.
1293
01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:58,400
I think he's got some good
tools.
1294
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:01,400
And as you said, he's got the
he's got the size of the length
1295
01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:05,500
that you like a defensive end to
play with an edge to play with,
1296
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:09,900
you know, looking at the tape,
you know, there are some things
1297
01:15:09,900 --> 01:15:12,900
that look really good.
There's some things that you can
1298
01:15:12,900 --> 01:15:17,400
work on I think, particularly
about the A gate.
1299
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,500
He uses his hands.
Well I think he still needs
1300
01:15:20,500 --> 01:15:23,400
probably work on some extra
moves there, something to kind
1301
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:25,800
of kind of counter here and
there.
1302
01:15:26,300 --> 01:15:30,100
But when we look at the size
that's impressive.
1303
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,600
And if like I said, if he can
get another 10 or 15 pounds on
1304
01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:37,900
him, I think we might be working
with something there and he's
1305
01:15:37,900 --> 01:15:42,700
got a few years left as well
because he came in in 2020 gun
1306
01:15:42,700 --> 01:15:44,800
at William &.
Mary, if you remember FCS
1307
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,800
canceled their season, they
played the spring season.
1308
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:50,300
The so technically he's probably
going to fall into getting three
1309
01:15:50,300 --> 01:15:52,900
more years of Eligibility.
So if we're not talking about
1310
01:15:52,900 --> 01:15:56,200
bringing him, you know, day one
to play.
1311
01:15:56,700 --> 01:16:00,700
Like I said, put the weight on
this year, which, you know, not
1312
01:16:00,700 --> 01:16:04,300
Northern Durham Robbie.
He went to Jordan down in Durham
1313
01:16:04,500 --> 01:16:11,600
it's a thing but you know, it's
putting the weight on its that
1314
01:16:11,700 --> 01:16:14,900
and you know, Carrie become
aparna, there's a reason.
1315
01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:17,900
He went to an FCS school and
some people like, oh, why don't
1316
01:16:17,900 --> 01:16:23,400
we want an FCS player?
Well, some of those guys grow so
1317
01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:27,200
those guys show out.
But if he went to an FCS school
1318
01:16:27,300 --> 01:16:30,700
and especially a William and
Mary, he's probably a smart kid,
1319
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:33,100
play football.
Somebody probably told him down
1320
01:16:33,100 --> 01:16:37,000
there.
Hey dude, this is FCS in this
1321
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:39,200
school is very slow to get you
in your position.
1322
01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:42,400
You need to go out to a Juke own
place somewhere because you get
1323
01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:45,400
your tape with your size.
You're going to get a P5.
1324
01:16:45,500 --> 01:16:51,200
Offer in clearly that happened
so hopefully that can turn into
1325
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:54,400
something.
Let me get y'all feelings on
1326
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:59,400
this reported just a couple
weeks ago, Jalen Jones has left
1327
01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:02,000
the wide receiver room.
So now we're at 13 wide
1328
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:08,500
receivers not 14 and he's moved
over to safety and he's already,
1329
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:11,400
you know, got one of those hokey
War Year Awards.
1330
01:17:12,700 --> 01:17:15,900
What y'all think.
I mean obviously this staff
1331
01:17:15,900 --> 01:17:19,600
ain't afraid to tell somebody.
Hey listen, go to that side of
1332
01:17:19,608 --> 01:17:24,600
the ball.
You play well, I mean, without
1333
01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:30,900
the Virgin too much you know no
one what we know here that y
1334
01:17:30,900 --> 01:17:35,900
receiver room is competitive.
Mmm, and and you've got you
1335
01:17:35,900 --> 01:17:41,800
brought in some guys that are
going to play and you may have
1336
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:44,500
some People in there that said
hey what do I have to do?
1337
01:17:44,500 --> 01:17:48,700
Coach to get on the field, there
are some conversations like that
1338
01:17:48,700 --> 01:17:52,200
and it may have been one of
those conversations were Jalen.
1339
01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:55,000
Jones may have been saying, hey
I want to get on the field.
1340
01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,000
What do I have to do to get on
the field?
1341
01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:00,700
And they said, well, let's take
a look at this and it looks like
1342
01:18:00,700 --> 01:18:02,400
he's working hard.
It looks like you said, he's
1343
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:06,800
already got one of those Awards.
He may be ready to make an
1344
01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:12,000
impact somewhere else besides
the wide receiver room.
1345
01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:15,800
You know, maybe special teams,
it may be him stepping into a
1346
01:18:15,808 --> 01:18:20,700
role similar to Divine Diablo.
Did you know, again other player
1347
01:18:20,700 --> 01:18:25,800
comparison, he may have moved to
that side of the ball and and he
1348
01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:29,800
might flourish there.
So what up what I do like about
1349
01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:32,600
it is that the coaches aren't
giving up on kids, okay?
1350
01:18:32,600 --> 01:18:35,700
You're not good enough.
Just go you know some some kids
1351
01:18:35,700 --> 01:18:38,900
aren't some kids aren't a good
fit for a school but this is a
1352
01:18:38,907 --> 01:18:41,900
Virginia kid that apparently
wants to be there.
1353
01:18:44,500 --> 01:18:48,500
He's made the transition to
defense from offense after a
1354
01:18:48,508 --> 01:18:51,900
couple of years and he looks
like he's working hard to do
1355
01:18:51,900 --> 01:18:54,100
what he has to do to help the
team win.
1356
01:18:54,900 --> 01:18:59,300
I'm hoping that culture
continues throughout all of the
1357
01:18:59,300 --> 01:19:04,200
rooms and we see more and more
kids continuing to work to get
1358
01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:05,700
us.
What we need to be when some
1359
01:19:05,700 --> 01:19:11,700
names and is there Ryan.
My big thing is that I love this
1360
01:19:11,700 --> 01:19:16,600
because it's an opportunity for
a God that is obviously put out
1361
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:20,700
a lot of effort that hadn't
quite been able to crack into.
1362
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:25,100
It was right at the back.
Edge of the too deep last year,
1363
01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:28,000
obviously, with some of the guys
that were brought in, in the
1364
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:32,800
offseason transfer portal.
Probably they are or lower
1365
01:19:32,900 --> 01:19:37,700
heading into this year, but he
didn't say.
1366
01:19:37,700 --> 01:19:40,400
All right.
Well, I'm falling down the depth
1367
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:41,800
chart.
See you later.
1368
01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:44,100
I'm going to go do something
else conversations.
1369
01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:46,900
Had with coach and he decided.
All right, let's, let's switch
1370
01:19:46,900 --> 01:19:49,000
sides.
Let's see if I can be an asset.
1371
01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:51,700
And one of the things we had
talked about earlier and I've
1372
01:19:51,700 --> 01:19:53,700
set it on here before and I'll
say it again.
1373
01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:59,600
I always liked the way, Jalen
Jones ran with the football.
1374
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:04,500
After the catch here, an angry,
he ran like Anquan Boldin did
1375
01:20:05,100 --> 01:20:07,200
when he had the ball.
He ran like, somebody that
1376
01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:11,000
immediately turned into an
oversized running back.
1377
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:14,800
As soon as he got the ball in
his hand and if he can That kind
1378
01:20:14,800 --> 01:20:17,900
of toughness and that kind of
mentality on the defensive side
1379
01:20:18,500 --> 01:20:20,100
only.
That's a quick transition for
1380
01:20:20,100 --> 01:20:24,700
him, where he may be able to be
a contributor by the end of this
1381
01:20:24,700 --> 01:20:28,000
year and may be able to kind of
work into the rotation at some
1382
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:30,900
point next year.
And and, you know, as you said,
1383
01:20:30,900 --> 01:20:34,100
Talley may be looking to get on
the field.
1384
01:20:34,100 --> 01:20:37,800
I, divide Diablo did by making
the switch from wide receiver
1385
01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:42,300
over to to safety.
So I'm happy for the man and I
1386
01:20:42,300 --> 01:20:46,000
hope him he steps up.
Up and that safety is a good fit
1387
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:48,400
for him.
Yeah, couple big things about
1388
01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:52,100
Jaden just to know out there
Hokie Nation, he had not taken a
1389
01:20:52,100 --> 01:20:55,400
red shirt yet, he had not taken
a wrestler, he played in 10
1390
01:20:55,400 --> 01:20:59,800
games in 21, he played in 10
games last year, so if we're
1391
01:20:59,800 --> 01:21:03,400
talking about him transitioning,
if he does need that year, you
1392
01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:06,600
got that red shirt year, right?
Hey, learn to position this
1393
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:08,400
year.
Let's get ready to get you on
1394
01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:11,100
the field next year.
So it's not like we're in a time
1395
01:21:11,100 --> 01:21:13,400
crunch with him.
If it was one of those things
1396
01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:16,000
where I'm like, listen, We've
already redshirted him.
1397
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:18,500
He's a redshirt junior.
He got to play this year.
1398
01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:23,300
We have that ability to say like
I think what you said Bryan's
1399
01:21:23,300 --> 01:21:25,900
perfect.
See how he you know, training
1400
01:21:26,200 --> 01:21:28,100
progresses.
It may be at the end of the
1401
01:21:28,100 --> 01:21:30,000
season.
Hey let's get you on the field
1402
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:34,300
and get you in game action for
it, which will be great and just
1403
01:21:34,300 --> 01:21:36,300
best of luck for him.
He is an RV a kid.
1404
01:21:36,300 --> 01:21:41,500
He played down and TJ under
coach Adam so you know it's good
1405
01:21:41,500 --> 01:21:45,600
to see they're doing the boys in
eight like this.
1406
01:21:47,100 --> 01:21:52,100
So now Last piece even though
we're going to have to keep it
1407
01:21:52,100 --> 01:21:55,200
up on our rundown tally.
When we show tally to run down,
1408
01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:58,700
we talk about transfer portal.
We keep transfer portal
1409
01:21:58,700 --> 01:22:00,900
highlighting because it's an
ever-growing list.
1410
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:05,600
This one we had to put on here
even though he's not taking up a
1411
01:22:05,608 --> 01:22:08,900
scholarship and he's going to be
a preferred walk-on offer and
1412
01:22:08,900 --> 01:22:15,100
that stone Schneider kid coming
out of via my multiple time
1413
01:22:15,100 --> 01:22:19,900
All-American down at the FCS
level last year or Last two
1414
01:22:19,900 --> 01:22:23,300
years of kind of looked like
this stat line was 20 2120
1415
01:22:24,700 --> 01:22:29,100
tackles 11, tackles for loss for
sacks.
1416
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:33,100
Three fumble, recoveries last
year, hundred seven, tackles
1417
01:22:33,100 --> 01:22:36,900
three tackles for loss, only a
half sacks of not the explosion.
1418
01:22:37,300 --> 01:22:42,200
But clearly a man who played at
that level, and excelled is
1419
01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:46,000
coming here to one of the more
solid rooms, Brian.
1420
01:22:46,100 --> 01:22:48,400
I don't know.
I know you were going to try to
1421
01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:49,900
look at the tape for We jumped
on.
1422
01:22:49,900 --> 01:22:52,100
Did you get a chance to look at
the stone Snyder's?
1423
01:22:52,100 --> 01:22:56,900
Take before we have fun tonight.
Yeah, so looking at the tape, I
1424
01:22:56,900 --> 01:23:00,700
tell you the thing I like is
that this guy is really good at
1425
01:23:00,700 --> 01:23:03,800
getting off of Blocks, he's a
shattered.
1426
01:23:04,100 --> 01:23:09,500
Oh he's also a guy that is a
sure tackler.
1427
01:23:10,100 --> 01:23:12,800
Probably the biggest thing he
needs to work on is he needs to
1428
01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:16,400
work on his his speed.
We've heard that from a Mike
1429
01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:20,600
linebacker at Virginia Tech.
So, We understand that
1430
01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:23,900
limitation, especially when it
comes to areas of coverage.
1431
01:23:23,900 --> 01:23:27,400
But in terms of just being kind
of a mic, go sideline to
1432
01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:32,800
sideline a little bit can make
plays in space and can can get
1433
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:36,300
off of blocks and be able to
make tackles that aren't getting
1434
01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:40,100
getting somebody dragged 345
yards down the field.
1435
01:23:40,300 --> 01:23:43,500
It's a guy that can do it now
whether you can translate that
1436
01:23:43,500 --> 01:23:48,000
up to the power 5 level that's
that's that remains to be seen
1437
01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:52,000
but just Based on his technique
and what he can do from an
1438
01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:57,900
athletic standpoint.
I think he's a good player that
1439
01:23:57,900 --> 01:24:01,700
you could potentially look at as
a potential starter in games
1440
01:24:01,700 --> 01:24:03,800
where you have a run-heavy
matchup.
1441
01:24:04,100 --> 01:24:07,800
I don't think he's a guy that
would contribute a lot for any
1442
01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:12,300
sort of true spread, or a heavy
passing attack, but if you got a
1443
01:24:12,300 --> 01:24:15,000
team that's going to ground and
pound, he could, he could be an
1444
01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:20,700
asset.
Pittsburgh, what size is he,
1445
01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:26,900
what's the size 63 240 pounds.
So he got some beat, he's 63 240
1446
01:24:26,900 --> 01:24:30,900
with a name, like Stone.
He better be ready to punch.
1447
01:24:33,100 --> 01:24:38,000
I seen one highlight and he had
a bionic arm or something.
1448
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:41,400
I don't know what was going on,
but he had a thing on his arm
1449
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:45,300
like Batista had.
I would like, probably tough.
1450
01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,900
White linebacker, middle of wood
with a name Stone.
1451
01:24:50,900 --> 01:24:53,500
He probably can hit all.
I need to see his nose.
1452
01:24:53,500 --> 01:24:56,200
Get bloody one time.
Fan favorite.
1453
01:24:56,400 --> 01:25:00,000
We got Dax back.
Let's go to actually point of
1454
01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:01,600
dag to point up.
Now.
1455
01:25:01,800 --> 01:25:03,100
There you go.
Put him in that.
1456
01:25:03,100 --> 01:25:06,200
Tell him to go get, go hit.
Hey don't need a cover.
1457
01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:09,700
If nothing else it shows up the
depth in that room.
1458
01:25:10,300 --> 01:25:13,200
Completely you.
Now yet Tisdale you got lost in
1459
01:25:13,200 --> 01:25:16,400
you got Keller, you get the
outside guys who can Play you
1460
01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:19,900
got a really good too.
Deep are, he's an RV, a kid.
1461
01:25:19,900 --> 01:25:25,200
He played down in Monacan which
is I believe, I think Monica and
1462
01:25:25,200 --> 01:25:28,500
is still got a form of hokey as
a head coach down there.
1463
01:25:28,500 --> 01:25:31,800
So again, it's things like this
in recruiting world, right?
1464
01:25:31,900 --> 01:25:35,000
Hey, hey, you know, we would
have taken Stone here four years
1465
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:39,200
ago.
If we had been here but you go
1466
01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:41,700
back and it gets those in robes
and things like that.
1467
01:25:41,700 --> 01:25:45,500
So I mean I feel good.
You have 100 tackles at any
1468
01:25:45,500 --> 01:25:49,200
level of football, you obviously
kind of know what you're doing
1469
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:56,800
just because but again it's
yours up a room and now I don't
1470
01:25:56,800 --> 01:25:58,300
think we're worried about
linebackers.
1471
01:25:58,300 --> 01:26:02,400
We got the depth there in.
You know, somebody's got to go
1472
01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:04,200
from that room.
That's younger than they got to
1473
01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:05,800
go.
All right.
1474
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:11,700
So Boys over the last six weeks,
we have been seeing a lot of
1475
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:15,600
social media presence for my
coaches out there.
1476
01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:18,300
Talking about the winter
workouts, putting the tough
1477
01:26:18,300 --> 01:26:20,600
athletes up.
Putting the Hokie Warriors up.
1478
01:26:22,100 --> 01:26:24,100
Y'all ankle sit here and name
them all.
1479
01:26:24,800 --> 01:26:28,300
Because if I did it would take a
little while but you all seen it
1480
01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:30,800
and if you're a hockey fan and
you haven't seen it.
1481
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:34,000
Go look at all the coaches page.
They're sharing these every
1482
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:35,400
week.
They're retweeting each other.
1483
01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:39,800
They're pushing these guys and
pumping their guys up and we
1484
01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:43,300
cooked we look at it today
because I'm a nerd, not make the
1485
01:26:43,300 --> 01:26:47,100
list and I made the big long
list and we sat here this
1486
01:26:47,100 --> 01:26:52,700
morning kind of talked about it
and Is something I can't
1487
01:26:52,700 --> 01:26:55,200
remember if it was Taylor, you
Braun just, that's the way my
1488
01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:59,000
brain works.
We talked about cream rising to
1489
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:03,700
the top of this list, because
just about every player on this
1490
01:27:03,700 --> 01:27:07,100
list.
Play, either a significant role
1491
01:27:07,100 --> 01:27:12,000
last year on this team or was
one of the prize transfer
1492
01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:15,100
recruits.
Yeah.
1493
01:27:15,100 --> 01:27:17,400
When we look at it, you know,
you got guys, like, you know,
1494
01:27:17,400 --> 01:27:22,900
Gallows on here, three times.
Hope you wore your Got you know
1495
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:27,300
Kelly lost and you got Mario
Kendricks, you got my sword,
1496
01:27:27,300 --> 01:27:33,700
delaying, you got Josh fuga.
These are guys that have had a
1497
01:27:33,700 --> 01:27:37,600
presence for this team last
year, Jalen strowman on here two
1498
01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:39,800
times.
So I mean these are these are
1499
01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:43,700
Big Time Players that played key
roles for us last year.
1500
01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:47,600
Good to see them competing in
the offseason.
1501
01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:51,900
And you know, we look at At the
cream Rises to the top.
1502
01:27:51,900 --> 01:27:55,900
Also let's talk a little bit
about the couple guys that can
1503
01:27:55,900 --> 01:27:57,700
transfer it in that are on this
list.
1504
01:27:57,700 --> 01:28:03,500
You got canteen on here, you got
drones on here you got Jalen
1505
01:28:03,500 --> 01:28:08,100
Lane on here.
These this is this is good
1506
01:28:08,100 --> 01:28:10,300
because it shows you that these
guys are coming in and
1507
01:28:10,300 --> 01:28:15,500
immediately competing and buying
into the culture that coach
1508
01:28:15,500 --> 01:28:18,200
pride and the rest of the staff
is set for this team.
1509
01:28:20,200 --> 01:28:23,200
Definitely, definitely.
Now one of the names that I seen
1510
01:28:24,300 --> 01:28:29,600
that I didn't see earlier
actually was McRae CJ McRae.
1511
01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:32,100
He's on there, right?
Yeah.
1512
01:28:32,100 --> 01:28:35,300
McRae was got a tough athlete
award.
1513
01:28:35,300 --> 01:28:37,600
Have you after Warrior award but
got the tough athlete Award,
1514
01:28:37,600 --> 01:28:40,600
right?
But the McRae during the season.
1515
01:28:41,700 --> 01:28:44,800
If you watch some of the earlier
games, he jumped off of the
1516
01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:47,700
screen man, like I don't know
what happened later in the
1517
01:28:47,708 --> 01:28:50,000
season.
I don't know if he had Resort or
1518
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:54,700
what but watching him early in
the season, it was like thank
1519
01:28:54,700 --> 01:28:56,400
you is number 56.
Only.
1520
01:28:56,500 --> 01:29:00,100
Yeah, we need more of him, you
know, like that, that looks
1521
01:29:00,100 --> 01:29:02,800
good.
So, I'll be interested to see
1522
01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:06,600
kind of, you know what, what
he's able to do.
1523
01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:10,300
And all of these guys, you know,
like you said, a lot of the
1524
01:29:10,300 --> 01:29:17,400
contributors that we expect to
be big players for us we've seen
1525
01:29:17,400 --> 01:29:20,900
on there.
Now, pivoting, just a little bit
1526
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:25,700
of course, because I'm a
Virginia Tech fan.
1527
01:29:26,200 --> 01:29:29,400
I always get a little nervous of
the people.
1528
01:29:29,400 --> 01:29:33,600
You don't see, you know what's
going on with what this guy?
1529
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:38,400
Why haven't we seen anything
from him when we talk about ali
1530
01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:40,900
Jennings?
You know, you talk about ali
1531
01:29:40,900 --> 01:29:45,500
Jennings and, and US knowing
he's going to be a leader in
1532
01:29:45,500 --> 01:29:49,600
that wide receiver room, you
know, constantly looking for
1533
01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:52,800
him, you know, constantly
looking for him to win
1534
01:29:52,800 --> 01:29:56,900
something.
Talk about Dorian strong.
1535
01:29:57,200 --> 01:29:59,400
Yeah.
What are we going to see from
1536
01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:00,400
him?
This year?
1537
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:04,400
You haven't seen them on a lot
of different lists like that but
1538
01:30:04,400 --> 01:30:06,300
I know it's some injuries and
things like that that we're
1539
01:30:06,300 --> 01:30:09,300
waiting overcome.
So that's one of the stuff that
1540
01:30:09,300 --> 01:30:11,000
I've been kind of paying
attention to this off.
1541
01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:14,200
Season.
One thing I am, glad about is
1542
01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:19,000
that last season it was so many
unknowns.
1543
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:22,500
I didn't know if you go back and
look at any of my Twitter page
1544
01:30:23,600 --> 01:30:24,800
time.
Online and stuff.
1545
01:30:25,100 --> 01:30:28,000
When people talked about what we
would do going to the season I
1546
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:30,200
was like yeah.
Not too excited.
1547
01:30:30,200 --> 01:30:33,500
I don't, it's going to be tough
to get to a ball game and people
1548
01:30:33,500 --> 01:30:35,600
would like you're crazy.
Look at this schedule.
1549
01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:39,000
I'm like we are the schedule.
It was looking at us.
1550
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:43,100
I don't want to look at who we
play what on killed him.
1551
01:30:43,500 --> 01:30:47,100
So a lot of these players I know
him.
1552
01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:52,900
You know we don't have will
Gustav Abyss playing wide
1553
01:30:52,900 --> 01:30:56,600
receiver this year.
Thank the Lord stuff like that.
1554
01:30:58,200 --> 01:31:01,900
Yeah, and to your point Talia,
there are there are some names
1555
01:31:01,900 --> 01:31:04,300
that have been missing and we
don't know if it's injury or
1556
01:31:04,400 --> 01:31:09,200
just they're not there and that,
that that does creep to worry in
1557
01:31:09,200 --> 01:31:12,100
the back of your mind.
Because for me, you mention Ali
1558
01:31:12,100 --> 01:31:15,900
and Dorian me.
Not seen Alan Tisdale worries me
1559
01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:20,600
because he is the he is the
oldest guy in that linebacker
1560
01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:22,200
room.
He's played the money.
1561
01:31:22,200 --> 01:31:25,100
Yeah, he's played the most Bar,
None.
1562
01:31:25,100 --> 01:31:29,300
I mean, go back to 2019 when he
Down to Miami game when he's
1563
01:31:29,300 --> 01:31:33,200
puking all over the field
playing his guts out and last
1564
01:31:33,200 --> 01:31:37,300
year came back look great.
You know after the suspension in
1565
01:31:37,300 --> 01:31:41,500
that worries me but then I look
at this list to and are y'all
1566
01:31:41,500 --> 01:31:47,000
worried about not seeing some of
the younger guys like because
1567
01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:50,600
there's not a lot of them
there's you know talk about the
1568
01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:53,600
class of 22.
It's other than Bryce.
1569
01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:56,300
Do you guys think nice into big
ones?
1570
01:31:56,300 --> 01:31:58,400
That I like I see two big ones.
So many.
1571
01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:08,600
I know he's seen some on there.
Go ahead, Brian office of
1572
01:32:08,600 --> 01:32:11,100
course.
Well, who are you worried about?
1573
01:32:11,100 --> 01:32:16,700
Not seeing on there then.
And I'm saying this guy's
1574
01:32:16,700 --> 01:32:20,300
Praises a lot, but I want to see
Daquan right on this list by the
1575
01:32:20,300 --> 01:32:24,600
end of winter workouts because I
know we got Nick Gallo is a
1576
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:28,600
big-time workout Warrior but
we're going to need to rely on
1577
01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:33,100
Daquan right to be more than
just a joker tight end that we
1578
01:32:33,100 --> 01:32:35,700
can line up wide.
We really need him to be able to
1579
01:32:36,000 --> 01:32:39,700
get in the wing and get in line
and do things like that because
1580
01:32:39,700 --> 01:32:42,800
that's going to open up some
things for us talent that we can
1581
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:45,300
do offensive ly.
Say what you were saying earlier
1582
01:32:45,300 --> 01:32:48,500
today about Daquan because you
really you made a really good
1583
01:32:48,500 --> 01:32:52,400
point about him.
Me Daquan, is your he is your
1584
01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:57,600
next Virginia Tech tidying to go
to the league.
1585
01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:05,200
He he needs to be salivating to
watch film like Travis Kelce
1586
01:33:05,200 --> 01:33:10,100
hitting all of these tight ends.
Now that are in the league, that
1587
01:33:10,100 --> 01:33:14,100
do what he does.
If he goes hard like Brian is
1588
01:33:14,100 --> 01:33:18,200
saying in this weight room this
offseason because he's already
1589
01:33:18,200 --> 01:33:22,900
burst onto the scene, he goes
hard this offseason in takes
1590
01:33:22,900 --> 01:33:26,800
that next step and you don't
have to take him off the field.
1591
01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:30,800
He's going to call some people,
some problems because you got to
1592
01:33:30,808 --> 01:33:33,500
be able to block you got to be
able to line up, right?
1593
01:33:33,500 --> 01:33:35,500
You got to be able to be flexed
out.
1594
01:33:35,500 --> 01:33:39,900
You got to be able to know how
to pick up blitzes.
1595
01:33:39,900 --> 01:33:41,600
It's a lot of different things
that you have.
1596
01:33:41,800 --> 01:33:45,600
Do and that tight end position.
You pretty much a learning to
1597
01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:49,000
positions, you learning wide
receiver and you're learning
1598
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:52,000
offensive lineman, you know you
got to be able to do both of
1599
01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:55,400
them.
So That is, that is a, that's a
1600
01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:59,400
big one that Brian brought up
that I don't want to use the
1601
01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:02,300
word worried, even us talking
about this, I don't want to use
1602
01:34:02,300 --> 01:34:06,100
the word that it worries us, but
it is something that you like,
1603
01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:09,400
I'd like to see something
different out of that because,
1604
01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:12,500
right?
Right is going to be a big part
1605
01:34:12,500 --> 01:34:15,700
of our offense.
He's gonna be a huge part of our
1606
01:34:15,700 --> 01:34:18,100
offense and even watching, I'll
just go back to the.
1607
01:34:18,100 --> 01:34:23,800
I think it was the Malcolm
Thomas as well, and I know, No,
1608
01:34:23,800 --> 01:34:26,900
he's been battling injuries but
I was just about to say to go
1609
01:34:26,900 --> 01:34:29,300
back and think about the North
Carolina State game.
1610
01:34:31,500 --> 01:34:35,300
We that game look totally
different when Thomas got hurt
1611
01:34:35,800 --> 01:34:39,800
it like it took the air out of
the whole team when he went down
1612
01:34:40,500 --> 01:34:45,400
but the first half we couldn't
do shit and then we come out
1613
01:34:45,400 --> 01:34:49,000
that second half and right takes
over, you know, I think he took
1614
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:53,000
two passes down the field.
It may have had about 60 yards,
1615
01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:56,100
receiving in two passes or three
passes.
1616
01:34:56,100 --> 01:35:00,800
So him being a part of the
offense dramatically.
1617
01:35:01,600 --> 01:35:06,600
Changes it, when he's when he's
there and as a threat.
1618
01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:12,200
So I'm going to be excited to
see where we go with with him.
1619
01:35:12,500 --> 01:35:14,900
He's shown, he can get open.
He's shown, he can make plays
1620
01:35:14,900 --> 01:35:17,400
after the catch.
You know, had that one big
1621
01:35:17,400 --> 01:35:20,700
fumble that you kind of, you
know, it is what it is.
1622
01:35:21,400 --> 01:35:24,000
He works on ball security.
If he works on blocking, he can
1623
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:25,500
buy me.
The sky is really the limit for
1624
01:35:25,500 --> 01:35:30,100
him and because he kept a sleet
in the both of y'all's points.
1625
01:35:30,100 --> 01:35:33,900
If you can do everything, And if
he can go in line Wing h-back,
1626
01:35:34,700 --> 01:35:39,100
slot X, if you don't take them
off, if you, if you leave him on
1627
01:35:39,100 --> 01:35:43,200
the field every single play, you
basically you're dictating the
1628
01:35:43,200 --> 01:35:46,100
terms of that defense.
Who you going to put on him.
1629
01:35:46,100 --> 01:35:49,900
Oh, you gonna put the 5-11
little corner back and he can
1630
01:35:49,900 --> 01:35:53,500
come on, try to press him.
He'll Ragdoll him to the ground
1631
01:35:53,500 --> 01:35:55,600
and we don't get it out.
Oh, you're going to take that
1632
01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:57,300
line.
Backers will be two steps off of
1633
01:35:57,300 --> 01:35:58,900
him.
Go for, we will run a little
1634
01:35:58,900 --> 01:36:03,300
scene now now think about this.
Think about how we use Dalton
1635
01:36:03,300 --> 01:36:08,400
King when we had him.
Oh yeah and Don King is and I
1636
01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:11,100
love what dr.
King was he's not half the
1637
01:36:11,100 --> 01:36:17,300
athlete of Daquan right at all.
So Don King went to the league,
1638
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:20,700
no matter how much he played.
He got drafted and went to the
1639
01:36:20,700 --> 01:36:23,900
league.
He is a I think Robbie said it
1640
01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:28,400
perfect matchup Nightmare and
when he catches the ball he
1641
01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:35,600
ain't falling down like Bucky
This is true and I love, I love,
1642
01:36:36,300 --> 01:36:39,500
he was a matchup nightmare, but
he wasn't getting no yards after
1643
01:36:39,500 --> 01:36:44,100
the catch.
Right is so, man, I got one runs
1644
01:36:44,100 --> 01:36:47,000
again, we talked about when we
were talking about Jalen Jones,
1645
01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:48,800
right?
Kind of has the same same
1646
01:36:48,800 --> 01:36:52,600
mentality when he gets the ball.
He's not just going down at
1647
01:36:52,600 --> 01:36:55,800
first time.
No proof freshman to refresh.
1648
01:36:55,800 --> 01:36:58,100
Finish.
Tried to get away and get extra
1649
01:36:58,100 --> 01:37:02,900
yards every time a new Also goes
back to way to coaches are
1650
01:37:02,900 --> 01:37:05,200
teaching.
Hey, you mumbled a ball inside,
1651
01:37:06,100 --> 01:37:08,200
it's football.
We gonna get better.
1652
01:37:08,200 --> 01:37:11,500
It's football people, fumble.
And that's one thing.
1653
01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:14,600
I think I said it, who was it?
Brian, that fumbled and they put
1654
01:37:14,600 --> 01:37:16,100
them right?
Like he shocking last.
1655
01:37:16,100 --> 01:37:19,500
You even though he's looking to
leave us couple times Keyshawn
1656
01:37:19,500 --> 01:37:21,800
fumbled, and he was out there,
couple series later, date
1657
01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:25,400
invention because it's football.
People are going to Fumble,
1658
01:37:25,400 --> 01:37:27,400
people make plays on the other
side of the ball.
1659
01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:31,500
Yeah so that wraps that up, keep
an eye on that if you're I doubt
1660
01:37:31,500 --> 01:37:36,000
there because it's good to see.
I love it to me.
1661
01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:38,900
It's just, it's just lovely to
see.
1662
01:37:39,100 --> 01:37:42,300
They're giving these guys to
credit for busting their asses
1663
01:37:42,300 --> 01:37:45,700
in the winter, and they're
getting recognition every week
1664
01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:47,600
on Fridays.
They, it's that Roundup.
1665
01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:49,800
You expecting it.
And I love seeing that because
1666
01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:52,700
those guys deserve it.
All right, we got a few more
1667
01:37:52,700 --> 01:37:55,000
news and notes.
Before we wrap up tonight.
1668
01:37:55,900 --> 01:37:58,200
Did y'all know the usfl had
their draft today?
1669
01:37:59,100 --> 01:38:16,700
I saw you told me this man
regardless what you say they got
1670
01:38:16,700 --> 01:38:21,900
drafted in have a chance and
opportunity to play in the next
1671
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:23,600
level.
Yep.
1672
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:27,800
So good on them.
I'm sure they're there.
1673
01:38:27,800 --> 01:38:30,300
They're hoping it's like Months
from now somebody calls that
1674
01:38:30,300 --> 01:38:33,600
name but they got a lot of stuff
to go through before then and
1675
01:38:33,600 --> 01:38:34,800
it's it's right.
Funny.
1676
01:38:34,800 --> 01:38:36,600
It's like you're secure right
now guys.
1677
01:38:36,600 --> 01:38:39,100
You got something.
Yeah, they got their have
1678
01:38:39,100 --> 01:38:42,900
opportunity to keep playing and
show what they're worth.
1679
01:38:42,900 --> 01:38:48,500
And, you know, it's definitely a
platform that for guys like
1680
01:38:48,500 --> 01:38:52,400
Silas and Jayla that may not be,
you know, standout players in
1681
01:38:52,400 --> 01:38:56,100
terms of getting combine invites
and things like that, it gives
1682
01:38:56,100 --> 01:38:58,600
them a platform to kind of show
what they can do.
1683
01:38:59,100 --> 01:39:02,700
Outside of their college system
in a more pro-style system with
1684
01:39:02,700 --> 01:39:05,200
Pro coaches.
You know, a lot of the guys in
1685
01:39:05,200 --> 01:39:08,400
these leagues that are coaching
now, our former NFL coaches and
1686
01:39:08,407 --> 01:39:10,900
things like that, so that, you
know, they'll be able to see
1687
01:39:10,900 --> 01:39:13,200
that the network kind of gets
created there.
1688
01:39:13,200 --> 01:39:15,200
So it's definitely an Avenue for
them.
1689
01:39:15,200 --> 01:39:19,100
Hope they make the most of it.
Definitely, everybody story
1690
01:39:19,100 --> 01:39:20,600
different, man.
We don't know what somebody's
1691
01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:24,100
Story begins and ends, you know,
somebody.
1692
01:39:25,300 --> 01:39:28,600
They can get it one of these
developmental leagues or XFL.
1693
01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:32,200
Canadian Football League, it
could make their career, their
1694
01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:36,800
it's about money as well.
So if you can play the game you
1695
01:39:36,800 --> 01:39:39,600
love and you can make money for
your family, have it?
1696
01:39:39,800 --> 01:39:41,700
Yes sir.
What's a hokie always?
1697
01:39:41,700 --> 01:39:42,900
Okay, we're going to root you
on.
1698
01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:46,100
You come right by that.
If you went if you win a
1699
01:39:46,100 --> 01:39:48,300
championship week claiming that
fucking Championship.
1700
01:39:49,500 --> 01:39:54,400
Yes, sir.
Well, speaking of making money
1701
01:39:55,100 --> 01:39:59,000
this is strictly here in
Virginia tally out, Liz Not an
1702
01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:01,800
Alabama and Alabama has a state
that does not do it to our
1703
01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:04,000
knowledge.
The vhsl, the Virginia High
1704
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:07,600
School league is proposing, the
opportunity for high school
1705
01:40:07,600 --> 01:40:10,100
athletes to have name, image,
and likeness.
1706
01:40:11,600 --> 01:40:14,700
What y'all thought I made the
joke earlier.
1707
01:40:14,700 --> 01:40:18,400
So I'll leave this, just because
I know what High School coaches
1708
01:40:18,400 --> 01:40:21,700
make you, I was making a joke
earlier, it's going to be star
1709
01:40:21,700 --> 01:40:24,100
players on high school teams in
this ghostly difficult that are
1710
01:40:24,108 --> 01:40:26,900
making more than the coaches
are.
1711
01:40:27,700 --> 01:40:31,300
Because I mean, coaches stipends
in Virginia, are like four or
1712
01:40:31,300 --> 01:40:35,600
five thousand dollars, it's for
assistant coaches.
1713
01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:38,500
So, it's pretty, pretty, pretty
low ball.
1714
01:40:39,300 --> 01:40:41,800
And most most of them are
teachers to say, yes, Teacher
1715
01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:44,600
salary plus that stipend, you
know what we're looking at
1716
01:40:44,600 --> 01:40:48,100
there.
So that's going to be kind of
1717
01:40:48,100 --> 01:40:50,200
wild.
I have no problem with the y'all
1718
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:53,100
know.
I'm very much a ni L forward
1719
01:40:53,100 --> 01:40:58,400
person if people can use their
image name and likeness to make
1720
01:40:58,400 --> 01:41:00,600
money.
I'm all for it.
1721
01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:06,000
So, you know, let it ride, it'll
be interesting to see what type
1722
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:08,600
of guard rails.
They put up in place for it, you
1723
01:41:08,600 --> 01:41:09,700
know, you know.
Yeah.
1724
01:41:09,700 --> 01:41:11,300
When you have stuff like that,
you know.
1725
01:41:11,308 --> 01:41:12,700
No, it's not.
Like you said, it's going to be
1726
01:41:12,700 --> 01:41:15,800
guardrails.
They're going to have to do
1727
01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:21,500
something to make sure that it's
in compliance with what they're
1728
01:41:21,500 --> 01:41:26,800
looking for, but like it's what
the things is in our Hill is
1729
01:41:26,800 --> 01:41:31,900
named image likeness.
My name is Jonathan tally, if I
1730
01:41:31,900 --> 01:41:35,400
want to sign, if somebody wants
to pay me to sign an autograph,
1731
01:41:35,400 --> 01:41:39,900
if I'm a 12th grader.
For my name, that's their money.
1732
01:41:40,300 --> 01:41:44,300
I should be able to get paid for
it, you know, is it, it's going
1733
01:41:44,300 --> 01:41:46,600
to have some stuff up, this
going to have to like you said,
1734
01:41:46,600 --> 01:41:50,300
gonna we're gonna have to figure
some things out but I like it.
1735
01:41:50,300 --> 01:41:53,500
I don't think it's a bad thing
and he'll I'm from Alabama.
1736
01:41:53,600 --> 01:41:56,400
People been doing that anyway.
Oh you're right.
1737
01:41:56,800 --> 01:41:58,700
They've been they've been doing
this for years.
1738
01:41:58,800 --> 01:42:02,500
Well, it's closed doors.
Anyway, so we might as well go
1739
01:42:02,500 --> 01:42:05,000
ahead and say, well, we don't
want to get you in trouble.
1740
01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:08,300
We don't want to stop you from
doing playing a sport that Love
1741
01:42:09,100 --> 01:42:12,700
because you took some money
about some Jordans.
1742
01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:17,100
They is Robbie told about his
stipend down in Greenville.
1743
01:42:17,300 --> 01:42:21,400
I mean, I like it when you give
the kids, the opportunity, like
1744
01:42:21,400 --> 01:42:23,700
you said, Talley it's going on.
A lot of places, a lot of
1745
01:42:23,708 --> 01:42:25,600
places.
Anyway, you might as well make
1746
01:42:25,600 --> 01:42:32,200
it all out in the open, you
know, because if it least, it's
1747
01:42:32,200 --> 01:42:35,300
that way, you know, who's you
know what boosters are, what
1748
01:42:35,300 --> 01:42:37,400
high school are stroking, the
checks.
1749
01:42:37,900 --> 01:42:43,600
And that can level some stuff
out in some ways, but we'll see
1750
01:42:43,600 --> 01:42:45,300
how it goes.
Because I'm sure it's got to go
1751
01:42:45,300 --> 01:42:48,000
through legislation and all that
stuff here in the state, which
1752
01:42:48,200 --> 01:42:50,100
it's going to be real
interesting to follow over the
1753
01:42:50,100 --> 01:42:52,100
next couple years.
Yeah, it's gonna be interesting
1754
01:42:52,100 --> 01:42:55,500
to see how they handle.
I mean, because, I mean,
1755
01:42:55,500 --> 01:42:58,900
obviously Virginia, I'll be
recruiting is pretty much
1756
01:42:59,900 --> 01:43:05,000
illegal from a from a letter of
the law standpoint, but it
1757
01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:07,300
happens all the time.
Like it ain't, you know.
1758
01:43:07,800 --> 01:43:10,600
There's fudging, addresses.
I mean, there's there's a lot of
1759
01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:14,700
kids that live in the city that,
you know, play in schools in the
1760
01:43:15,700 --> 01:43:20,400
here, in Richmond area.
There's a lot of kids that are
1761
01:43:20,500 --> 01:43:26,400
Zone places that end up playing
for powers in the 757 that we
1762
01:43:26,400 --> 01:43:29,100
know and love.
So, I mean, there's a lot of
1763
01:43:29,100 --> 01:43:32,800
ways around it.
Yes, but but again, that's
1764
01:43:32,800 --> 01:43:36,100
always been in place and
obviously if you've got in il in
1765
01:43:36,100 --> 01:43:37,600
place, that's just going to kind
of Sweeten.
1766
01:43:37,700 --> 01:43:40,800
In that pot a little bit more
100%.
1767
01:43:40,800 --> 01:43:44,000
It, there's always a family
member that lives in the
1768
01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:48,400
district that you want to play
as I guaran-damn-tee.
1769
01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:52,500
All right, two more things.
Shout out to treadmill horse,
1770
01:43:52,500 --> 01:43:54,500
for putting this out there a
couple weeks ago.
1771
01:43:54,800 --> 01:43:57,100
Apparently, we're going to have
better cell service and lean
1772
01:43:57,100 --> 01:43:59,100
Stadium, this year.
Apparently, they put some
1773
01:43:59,100 --> 01:44:01,900
antennas up.
And I mean, I've won when I go
1774
01:44:01,900 --> 01:44:05,000
to the game, and it's been,
it'll be three years now.
1775
01:44:05,000 --> 01:44:10,300
Since I last step foot in Lane,
I checked my Phone during, you
1776
01:44:10,300 --> 01:44:12,600
know, the quarters.
If I walk to the pisser or
1777
01:44:12,600 --> 01:44:16,100
half-time in the end of the
game, I'm not out there.
1778
01:44:16,100 --> 01:44:17,700
Planted.
I know people like well, film
1779
01:44:17,700 --> 01:44:20,900
Sam is so cool.
I've been old school kid.
1780
01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:26,200
I used to sit in West stands in
the student section and when you
1781
01:44:26,200 --> 01:44:30,000
sit in that section it is an
experience when you feel your
1782
01:44:30,000 --> 01:44:31,800
body move.
So, when I hear the kids out
1783
01:44:31,800 --> 01:44:34,800
here like this, like what do you
like, what you freaking phone
1784
01:44:34,800 --> 01:44:39,000
down and enjoy it.
Curtis, you got to get into the
1785
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:42,700
new century man.
I'm sorry you got it, you gotta
1786
01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:46,200
listen, I gotta send your
question, your kids age 10?
1787
01:44:46,900 --> 01:44:50,700
Okay, you're still young.
I got a 13 and 17 year old.
1788
01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:54,600
It's all about Tick-Tock and
Instagram, and all of that
1789
01:44:54,600 --> 01:44:57,500
stuff.
So people want to see the real
1790
01:44:57,500 --> 01:45:02,100
world, the real stuff like they
want to see the Raw and Uncut
1791
01:45:02,100 --> 01:45:06,500
footage of Sandman and people
running out and Brian getting
1792
01:45:06,500 --> 01:45:08,200
drunk.
And Falling over beside them.
1793
01:45:08,200 --> 01:45:12,200
Like they need that Self
Service, they need to have it
1794
01:45:12,200 --> 01:45:14,600
better.
They want those live updates
1795
01:45:14,600 --> 01:45:18,000
during the game.
I get you, I understand.
1796
01:45:18,000 --> 01:45:24,500
We are not caring too much about
that, but those kids, well,
1797
01:45:24,500 --> 01:45:26,200
we're trying to pack that
Stadium.
1798
01:45:27,100 --> 01:45:30,100
We want them to stay in.
Now, we need them to be able to
1799
01:45:30,100 --> 01:45:32,200
check Tick, Tock to see what
card he be doing.
1800
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:38,900
Okay, I hear you, I'll say this.
So, Even if you think you from
1801
01:45:38,900 --> 01:45:41,300
an old school perspective,
there's times when you can't
1802
01:45:41,300 --> 01:45:43,600
even send a damn text message
last.
1803
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:47,200
That was a pain in the ass.
So like, if I get separated from
1804
01:45:47,200 --> 01:45:49,900
the guy came to the game with
like I can't even send the damn
1805
01:45:49,900 --> 01:45:53,300
text message, where the hell,
yeah, three hours later you find
1806
01:45:53,300 --> 01:45:55,600
somebody down at tots on the
fifth real?
1807
01:45:55,900 --> 01:46:01,000
Yes, I carry you home.
Now, he's going to collect all
1808
01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:03,500
of that Sandman footage.
You can the next time we've been
1809
01:46:03,500 --> 01:46:08,200
laying, I'm getting all of it.
I'll tell you what, though.
1810
01:46:08,200 --> 01:46:13,900
I got talk a lot of trash about
Sandman, but even being like
1811
01:46:13,900 --> 01:46:18,500
when you're there, it's just,
it's a surreal is feeling, you
1812
01:46:18,500 --> 01:46:21,600
know what I'm saying?
To go through it and even like,
1813
01:46:21,600 --> 01:46:26,400
I've been there when we play
Clemson, whatever year, when 17,
1814
01:46:26,700 --> 01:46:31,500
17 17 at place where nuts?
Yeah, that was.
1815
01:46:38,200 --> 01:46:41,600
Kinda I was I was there a little
late but I did get the I would
1816
01:46:41,600 --> 01:46:43,700
never write when it started, but
I got there.
1817
01:46:43,700 --> 01:46:47,400
And it was nuts, man is and I
was kind of finding my way and
1818
01:46:47,400 --> 01:46:52,200
feeling my way around town that
was my wife's first game action,
1819
01:46:52,200 --> 01:46:55,800
I love it because my first game
was 16 and she went with me and
1820
01:46:55,800 --> 01:46:58,900
17.
Yeah I'll say I say this.
1821
01:46:58,900 --> 01:47:04,200
I got to go 05 Georgia Tech game
day with said my fraternity
1822
01:47:04,200 --> 01:47:05,600
Brother David and my fraternity
brother.
1823
01:47:05,600 --> 01:47:11,100
Brian.
And I will tell anyone, if you
1824
01:47:11,100 --> 01:47:15,900
if if you are a tech fan in game
day, comes this year and you can
1825
01:47:15,900 --> 01:47:19,900
go go go.
It is a great experience.
1826
01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:23,500
It is a, even if you can't get,
it is football.
1827
01:47:23,600 --> 01:47:25,600
It is, it is something
different.
1828
01:47:25,600 --> 01:47:28,200
And I mean, we got there about
you because that's when it was
1829
01:47:28,200 --> 01:47:31,200
like a two-hour show.
We got there the last 40 minutes
1830
01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:34,400
and I mean, it was like this,
you know, and when I was with
1831
01:47:34,400 --> 01:47:37,500
me, I got that right.
The last 30, 30 minutes.
1832
01:47:37,500 --> 01:47:41,300
Yep, and it, and it just your
feel it brundun.
1833
01:47:41,500 --> 01:47:44,100
Yeah.
I haven't made a game time.
1834
01:47:44,300 --> 01:47:45,300
There we go.
There we go.
1835
01:47:45,300 --> 01:47:49,800
That's the, it's on the list.
There we go.
1836
01:47:50,400 --> 01:47:53,300
So the thing is, man, like me
being here.
1837
01:47:53,800 --> 01:47:59,100
I've been to a couple of games
and, you know, different sets of
1838
01:47:59,900 --> 01:48:04,300
tailgates and things like that.
When we came up and 16, we
1839
01:48:04,300 --> 01:48:06,500
didn't know anybody me and my
buddy.
1840
01:48:07,700 --> 01:48:12,300
Like personally like I know you
guys know we just we knew a
1841
01:48:12,300 --> 01:48:15,900
couple of people off of Facebook
like names, okay, he looks like
1842
01:48:15,900 --> 01:48:19,800
this, he looks like this.
And yeah man we got a warm
1843
01:48:19,800 --> 01:48:25,200
welcome like just walking by
tailgates and and having
1844
01:48:25,200 --> 01:48:27,100
conversations with people.
Oh yeah.
1845
01:48:27,100 --> 01:48:28,600
You talk different where you
from?
1846
01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:30,300
I'm from Alabama, what are you
doing here?
1847
01:48:30,600 --> 01:48:33,600
You know what I'm saying?
And then just it trickled into
1848
01:48:34,200 --> 01:48:37,000
you got a tailgate place here,
you got to place under like Like
1849
01:48:37,000 --> 01:48:39,900
yeah, I met some people, this
longtime friends like my friend,
1850
01:48:39,900 --> 01:48:42,900
Mike is like my brother.
Now we talked on the phone
1851
01:48:42,900 --> 01:48:47,100
probably once a day and that's
why I've been to most of my
1852
01:48:47,100 --> 01:48:50,600
games with now it's just a
different feeling when you get
1853
01:48:50,600 --> 01:48:53,600
to Blacksburg man hid in a lot
of different places I've been
1854
01:48:53,600 --> 01:48:57,300
and even when you talk about
Alabama, going to Tuscaloosa
1855
01:48:57,300 --> 01:49:02,000
going to to Auburn course I want
the Jacksonville State played,
1856
01:49:02,000 --> 01:49:06,700
you know, seeing some games
there and just a Alabama A&M.
1857
01:49:06,900 --> 01:49:08,300
Live here in Huntsville, they're
here.
1858
01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:12,700
I've been to a couple of
different games, but tailgate
1859
01:49:12,700 --> 01:49:15,900
wise and just the community is
just a different feeling.
1860
01:49:16,100 --> 01:49:19,300
And I know that sounds cliche to
people who are not, you know,
1861
01:49:19,300 --> 01:49:22,900
haven't been there and having
experienced it, but it is, is it
1862
01:49:22,900 --> 01:49:25,500
something different?
I'm just, I'm looking forward to
1863
01:49:25,500 --> 01:49:29,000
the day when those when those
games are as meaningful.
1864
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:35,100
Yeah.
As 16, they 2016 and we played
1865
01:49:35,100 --> 01:49:38,700
Miami on that Thursday night.
It was just it was electric man,
1866
01:49:39,000 --> 01:49:42,200
you know what I'm saying?
And it was even before we
1867
01:49:42,200 --> 01:49:46,800
stepped on the field, you know,
it was just excitement, you
1868
01:49:46,800 --> 01:49:51,300
know, like Virginia Tech
football was back and so I look
1869
01:49:51,300 --> 01:49:54,600
forward to getting back to those
getting back to those games and
1870
01:49:54,900 --> 01:49:57,600
getting back to those days and
damn it.
1871
01:49:57,700 --> 01:50:01,200
This is the year, let's do it.
All right, you already couple
1872
01:50:01,200 --> 01:50:04,600
the best environment with
actually playing for something
1873
01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:06,700
that matters right playing the
meaningful game.
1874
01:50:07,700 --> 01:50:09,400
And I think that's what's been
missing.
1875
01:50:09,400 --> 01:50:13,200
I think, you know, even when we
were looking at kind of the
1876
01:50:13,200 --> 01:50:15,300
upcoming schedule, we were
looking at it last year, looking
1877
01:50:15,300 --> 01:50:17,600
at this year.
I mean, it's not, it's not a lot
1878
01:50:17,600 --> 01:50:22,300
of what I'd call meaningful home
games this year, in terms of.
1879
01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:25,700
But if you never gave that a
probably big that are going to
1880
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,700
potentially matter, whether it's
in the ACC race or something
1881
01:50:28,700 --> 01:50:29,600
like that.
Yeah.
1882
01:50:30,700 --> 01:50:34,400
But the thing is, if you sit
here in we're you know we're
1883
01:50:34,400 --> 01:50:35,900
shooting the breeze.
Now we got one more thing to
1884
01:50:35,900 --> 01:50:36,700
talk about.
We're going to wrap.
1885
01:50:36,800 --> 01:50:38,900
It up because we almost been
going to ours.
1886
01:50:38,900 --> 01:50:40,200
Welcome.
Maybe to the new normal.
1887
01:50:41,400 --> 01:50:46,100
But if you tell me, it's late,
October like the Syracuse game
1888
01:50:46,100 --> 01:50:49,800
in text 6, + 1, 7 and 0.
It's a big game that don't
1889
01:50:49,800 --> 01:50:53,600
matter like we're good.
This game matters to us about
1890
01:50:53,600 --> 01:50:56,500
where we're trying to go.
Wouldn't get it when it gained
1891
01:50:56,500 --> 01:50:59,600
will game winning games changed.
Everything you go.
1892
01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:02,700
You start winning games
regardless.
1893
01:51:02,700 --> 01:51:06,700
What the team is, the atmosphere
changes and it tag it goes from.
1894
01:51:07,100 --> 01:51:10,000
It's always an unbelievable
atmosphere to make you think
1895
01:51:10,000 --> 01:51:13,000
about 16 when you were there and
then 17 and Clemson when we were
1896
01:51:13,000 --> 01:51:15,800
unbeaten, playing them is
through the roof.
1897
01:51:16,100 --> 01:51:20,100
And when we were going in the
early 2000s and you know, KJ was
1898
01:51:20,100 --> 01:51:27,000
there in Bryan, Randall in Hall,
it was Unreal and we're sitting
1899
01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:30,000
here.
We all are in our later 30s and
1900
01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:31,800
we're trying to tell this
generation.
1901
01:51:31,800 --> 01:51:36,200
It's like don't leave it half
time State like watch the game
1902
01:51:36,300 --> 01:51:37,100
be there.
R.
1903
01:51:37,100 --> 01:51:40,500
Because when this place gets
loud and nasty, teens don't like
1904
01:51:40,500 --> 01:51:44,800
playing here, they don't like
driving up 81 from Roanoke.
1905
01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:47,000
And the smoke comes rolling off
the mountains.
1906
01:51:47,300 --> 01:51:50,100
And you see that big brick
walls, you get on 460 and, you
1907
01:51:50,100 --> 01:51:54,400
know, man, it's about to get
loud and nasty for a few hours
1908
01:51:54,400 --> 01:51:57,400
on that field.
And that's what, you know,
1909
01:51:57,900 --> 01:52:00,000
that's what we've seen.
That's what we want.
1910
01:52:00,900 --> 01:52:03,500
Speaking of speaking of that,
since we're talking about it and
1911
01:52:03,500 --> 01:52:06,800
like you said, I know, we gotta
wrap this up what game?
1912
01:52:07,000 --> 01:52:09,500
Is that you guys?
What games are you guys looking
1913
01:52:09,500 --> 01:52:12,200
at this year that you're trying
to trying to make?
1914
01:52:12,200 --> 01:52:13,100
You haven't even thought about
it?
1915
01:52:13,100 --> 01:52:16,100
Yeah, you thought about it.
I'm definitely going to
1916
01:52:16,100 --> 01:52:18,600
Louisville.
I'm wrapping that up.
1917
01:52:18,600 --> 01:52:20,300
I'm pull, you going up my
camera?
1918
01:52:20,400 --> 01:52:22,300
That's a road game.
Yeah.
1919
01:52:22,400 --> 01:52:24,400
Okay.
I'm going to Louisville this
1920
01:52:24,400 --> 01:52:26,400
year.
I got a couple of friends.
1921
01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:29,700
It's already got their rooms,
and I'm probably going to get
1922
01:52:29,700 --> 01:52:33,800
mine Friday, but I don't know
which home game.
1923
01:52:33,800 --> 01:52:36,800
I'm coming too or, how many home
games I'm coming too?
1924
01:52:36,900 --> 01:52:41,100
Right now it looks like Purdue
is probably the home game.
1925
01:52:41,100 --> 01:52:43,400
Did I'm coming too?
All right, just because I
1926
01:52:43,407 --> 01:52:46,100
refused to come and watch us
play ODU.
1927
01:52:49,900 --> 01:52:55,000
I can't handle it either way.
Win or loss, I don't want to see
1928
01:52:55,000 --> 01:53:00,500
it but produce the team that,
you know, we ain't played maybe
1929
01:53:00,500 --> 01:53:02,800
a little different.
I seen this played Notre Dame.
1930
01:53:02,800 --> 01:53:07,500
I seen us play clip.
At home.
1931
01:53:07,500 --> 01:53:11,200
I seen this play Miami, so I'm
just looking for a good game and
1932
01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:13,600
that's a early game.
We go into that.
1933
01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:17,500
Not if we're going to beat ODU
this year, we're going to go
1934
01:53:17,500 --> 01:53:19,800
beat them this year and then
we're going to be 1 and 0.
1935
01:53:19,800 --> 01:53:20,900
Yep.
And then we're going to go in
1936
01:53:20,900 --> 01:53:23,900
and we're going to play Purdue
and I'm looking for us to smack
1937
01:53:23,900 --> 01:53:26,300
them and I want to be there.
I'm all right.
1938
01:53:26,300 --> 01:53:29,000
That's what you did.
I'm saying I'm going to and I'm
1939
01:53:29,008 --> 01:53:31,100
going to the spring and we are
going to spring game.
1940
01:53:31,100 --> 01:53:34,300
I'll be there he's gonna be
there I can't confirm or deny
1941
01:53:34,300 --> 01:53:36,400
yet.
I got kids doing a lot of stuff
1942
01:53:36,600 --> 01:53:40,000
I I ain't going to guarantee it.
I mean, you've been there and,
1943
01:53:40,200 --> 01:53:42,300
you know, me and being telephone
link-up.
1944
01:53:42,300 --> 01:53:48,000
Regardless Wally cannot Sublime.
You grab them by the balls and
1945
01:53:48,000 --> 01:54:03,100
throw him in the back.
And that man is going to be an
1946
01:54:03,100 --> 01:54:05,300
assistant defensive back coach
for the Panthers.
1947
01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:10,200
He got the itch right?
Yep he got that itch got the
1948
01:54:10,200 --> 01:54:14,900
itch.
I mean by some media for a
1949
01:54:14,907 --> 01:54:17,000
while.
So I mean it's interesting that
1950
01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:19,900
these jumping in The Fray but
I'm happy for him.
1951
01:54:19,900 --> 01:54:23,200
That's yes, that's something
that I think he's always kind of
1952
01:54:23,200 --> 01:54:26,300
looked at, but just kind of and
figured out I went to make the
1953
01:54:26,300 --> 01:54:27,700
jump.
What's the right move?
1954
01:54:27,800 --> 01:54:31,800
When's the right time and if he
finally took that step so good
1955
01:54:31,800 --> 01:54:33,500
for him.
This coaching job sweat, so he
1956
01:54:33,500 --> 01:54:36,500
can come back to Tech and help
us out.
1957
01:54:36,500 --> 01:54:39,300
That's what he's doing.
He talked to me and told me that
1958
01:54:39,500 --> 01:54:42,000
I, there we go, flying.
Barry.
1959
01:54:42,000 --> 01:54:45,000
Go tallies got some sources
here.
1960
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:47,600
That's what he's trying to do is
trying to come back without
1961
01:54:47,600 --> 01:54:48,800
tell.
He's a real inside of y'all
1962
01:54:48,800 --> 01:54:51,400

00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,200
Scroll across the bottom.
It says welcome aboard.
40
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,600

Nobody calls me that.
41
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:12,500
So yes, my real name is Jonathan
tally and everybody, the cosmi
42
00:03:12,500 --> 00:03:18,100
tally or JT, but I've been in
Alabama, my whole life.
43
00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:21,200
Born and raised here.
Small town called Columbia and
44
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:25,100
Alabama, went to a small, high
school college, Shelby County,
45
00:03:25,100 --> 00:03:28,800
High School, After High School
with the Jacksonville State
46
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:32,000
playing, you know, basketball,
baseball and football.
47
00:03:32,700 --> 00:03:37,600
My you know years coming up and
then got pretty serious about
48
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,800
football.
In high school ended up having a
49
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,700
severe knee injury and figure it
out.
50
00:03:44,700 --> 00:03:48,100
I didn't love sports as much as
I thought I did.
51
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:54,800
So I didn't progress with with
football after that injury MCL
52
00:03:55,600 --> 00:04:01,200
ACL and PCL and this is well so
all that up everything.
53
00:04:01,500 --> 00:04:05,900
Everything It's moldy, you tore
it up, exploded in this was, you
54
00:04:05,900 --> 00:04:09,500
know, 2004.
So yeah medicine was a little
55
00:04:09,500 --> 00:04:18,600
bit different so still went to
school still, you know, partied
56
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:23,600
a lot and had some fun but again
been here my whole life, I got a
57
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,300
brother that's a little bit
older than me.
58
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,800
He's about 12 years older than
me when he graduated high
59
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:33,600
school, he went to the Navy like
Graduated one day went to the
60
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,400
Navy, the next.
So he was stationed up in
61
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:42,700
Norfolk, Virginia and visiting
him and getting stuff from him,
62
00:04:42,700 --> 00:04:47,200
getting care packages from him,
all consisted of Virginia Tech
63
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,600
stuff.
So, Him being a teen be being
64
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:55,400
six at the time.
You know, I kind of took to the
65
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,100
to the Hokies back then and
yeah, of course, who doesn't
66
00:04:58,100 --> 00:04:59,700
love Michael Vick in the Vick
family.
67
00:04:59,700 --> 00:05:02,500
Once you start watching the
Hokies and there on the field.
68
00:05:02,500 --> 00:05:06,100
So I've been following the
following the following the
69
00:05:06,100 --> 00:05:11,200
Hokies ever since man and been
crying ever since as well.
70
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,600
I guess that's true.
That's true.
71
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,900
It is a real tears.
Let me ask you real quick just
72
00:05:17,900 --> 00:05:20,300
because you know, you played,
obviously you played at a good
73
00:05:20,300 --> 00:05:22,300
enough level to get a Collegiate
scholarship.
74
00:05:22,300 --> 00:05:24,800
To an FCS school.
What positions did you play?
75
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:29,200
Just so when you chime in and
say something about it, like all
76
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,800
right.
Y'all listen, he ain't just a
77
00:05:30,808 --> 00:05:33,500
guy that's talking shit, right?
Yeah, hehe.
78
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:35,200
I do a lot of that.
I do a lot of that.
79
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,100
You know what?
I'm watching the game and I'm
80
00:05:52,500 --> 00:05:54,700
critiquing.
That's why I start looking, you
81
00:05:54,700 --> 00:05:56,800
know.
It's a lot of us, a lot of
82
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,800
positions on the field at a
glory positions that we all
83
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:03,000
follow.
But you know, I know guys like
84
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,500
me and Brian when you've been in
those trenches man, you you
85
00:06:06,500 --> 00:06:09,000
don't forget them.
So I'm looking at that line a
86
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,700
lot of times and looking at the
tight ends and things like that.
87
00:06:12,700 --> 00:06:17,600
So it's been good though man.
We've had some we've had some
88
00:06:18,300 --> 00:06:20,400
Some fun times.
I'm like you said, I knew you
89
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,200
guys for three to four years now
and I'm definitely excited to be
90
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,200
here, man.
It's a, sometimes it's a real.
91
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:30,400
Like I said, even just seeing
your name going across the
92
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,700
bottom is kind of surreal to be
like, okay, I'm going to pop,
93
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,500
I'm a part of a podcast, you
know.
94
00:06:34,500 --> 00:06:36,500
I had to tell some friends and
family had to go to a birthday
95
00:06:36,500 --> 00:06:38,500

while and we're glad add to be

Your first game in Layton
stadium was yeard game.

00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,500
I was in Rutgers.
It was 02.
105
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,500
The Kevin Jones.
Insane got trapped in a corner
106
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:13,300
running, cut it back as the
game.
107
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:14,300
His first.
Yes, sir.
108
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:18,600
Yes, sir.
I was 0. 3 U CF D Hall playing
109
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:23,000

Literally that game my eye
110
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,400
buddy.
God Rest, his soul, Brian
111
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,000
Wilkerson and a friend of ours,
Blair Waldorf took me to that
112
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,000
game now 20 years ago.
So tally.
113
00:07:31,300 --> 00:07:33,500
You got to tell everybody what
was your first game?
114
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:40,700
And Lanes, 2016, 2016 2016 Miami
came to town.
115
00:07:40,700 --> 00:07:43,000
I think it was a Thursday.
It was a Thursday night game.
116
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:48,400
She's like a great game to go to
man, a great game to go to
117
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,100
Thursday night, Lane Stadium, me
and a buddy.
118
00:07:51,100 --> 00:07:54,600
We went to college together.
He's a tech fan as well.
119
00:07:55,000 --> 00:08:00,100
He's not as active on social
media, but we've been up to then
120
00:08:00,100 --> 00:08:03,400
up to Blacksburg a couple of
times together and we knew
121
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,700
Nobody we just said you know
we've been Virginia, Tech fans
122
00:08:06,700 --> 00:08:10,100
all through college and we make
enough money to go to a game.
123
00:08:10,100 --> 00:08:11,900
Let's go to a game.
So here we go.
124
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:16,600
Came up to the Miami game and it
was a week, his car.
125
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,400
I remember we parked, I can't
remember what the story is but
126
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:23,500
it's a store that's like on the
other side of the bookstore like
127
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:25,800
a gas that it's not really a gas
station, I don't think.
128
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,300
But it looks like a gas station.
Okay.
129
00:08:27,300 --> 00:08:29,700
In school I don't know what it's
called though.
130
00:08:30,700 --> 00:08:34,700
But it's on the same side of the
road as the bookstore, but just
131
00:08:34,700 --> 00:08:38,299
maybe a block down the road and
we parked in his car got tired.
132
00:08:39,299 --> 00:08:43,400
Well, it applies that was our
first introduction to Blacksburg
133
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:49,200
and and the cops there.
So from his fourth are, you will
134
00:08:49,500 --> 00:08:52,300
let our sponsor at Main Street
Pharmacy.
135
00:08:52,300 --> 00:08:54,500
There know you're in town, so
you can just park over.
136
00:08:54,500 --> 00:09:01,800
Yeah, Jeremy what he drives.
Orange Challenger.
137
00:09:01,900 --> 00:09:05,000
Oh man, it wasn't it wasn't hard
to spot.
138
00:09:05,100 --> 00:09:09,500
It was gone.
All right, so one last piece of
139
00:09:09,500 --> 00:09:13,800
the puzzle here 16 Miami,
Thursday night game, we smack
140
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,900
them down and you've been a fan
for a long time.
141
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,800
Who's your favorite hokey?
My favorite hokey.
142
00:09:21,300 --> 00:09:23,000
It's got to be my man, all
right.
143
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,200
Got to be Mike Vick and I know
that's cliche but like I'm it's
144
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,100
deeper than meeting just
football, you know.
145
00:09:30,100 --> 00:09:31,900
Watch Watching him.
I'm a bit.
146
00:09:31,900 --> 00:09:34,800
Kobe fan as well.
And you know, it's not that I
147
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:39,800
want somebody to get in trouble,
but to watch somebody go through
148
00:09:40,300 --> 00:09:44,400
adversity, and bounce back like
they've done Mike and Kobe.
149
00:09:44,900 --> 00:09:48,500
It is crazy.
And to meet like I met Mike in a
150
00:09:48,500 --> 00:09:52,500
in a Cracker Barrel here in
Huntsville, Alabama, it's like I
151
00:09:52,500 --> 00:09:54,900
can't not say Mike.
Yeah, you know, it's a lot of
152
00:09:54,900 --> 00:09:57,300
other people in that and I think
he told that story the first
153
00:09:57,300 --> 00:09:59,200
time you came home with I love
you did.
154
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,400
Like somebody told you Mike
Because in Cracker Barrel and
155
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,400
you got in your car and drove,
right?
156
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,300
Like I'm at home sleep and I've
got a buddy who was a head
157
00:10:07,300 --> 00:10:11,200
server at Cracker Barrel who was
calling my phone and I usually
158
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:15,100
put my phone on vibrate when I
when I sleep like I had woke up
159
00:10:15,100 --> 00:10:18,200
and went back to sleep and then
I wake up and it's like 30
160
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,900
missed calls.
Look like do do you understand
161
00:10:21,900 --> 00:10:24,500
Mike Vick is here and I'm like
Michael Vick ain't there.
162
00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:29,900
I think he's here right now.
So I just grabbed my Mike Vick
163
00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:32,200
jersey.
He and like beelined it to this
164
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:33,800
is about 10 minutes away.
Yeah.
165
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:38,600
But the crazy thing was he told
Mike I was coming like he was
166
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,500
like hey I got a buddy that is a
big Virginia Tech fan and he
167
00:10:41,500 --> 00:10:44,300
wants to meet you and he's like
tell him to take his time, just
168
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:49,000
will hang out till he gets here.
So that was pretty cool man and
169
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:54,200
he was like, so down to earth
Marcus was there as well, but
170
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,300
they would just like in there by
themselves, just chilling.
171
00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:00,300
You know, Cracker Barrel whole
bunch of old white people.
172
00:11:00,500 --> 00:11:05,200
Why do whatever I come in there?
I'm like, got my hokey stuff on.
173
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,700
I got my jersey, hold my old, my
shoulder and like almost
174
00:11:09,700 --> 00:11:14,000
Starstruck six to three hundred
and eighty pound man wanting to
175
00:11:14,008 --> 00:11:16,700
cry because he's meeting his
childhood hero.
176
00:11:16,700 --> 00:11:19,500
You know if that means also did
was crazy.
177
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:22,400
But that that was a, that was a
that was a great time.
178
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:29,300
And again, just for for me to
meet him and him to be as humble
179
00:11:29,300 --> 00:11:32,600
as he is to.
Be everything he's done in his
180
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:33,900
life.
It was, it was a pretty good.
181
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,100
It was a pretty good experience.
Yeah, that was cool him and him
182
00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:39,300
hanging out to you got there to
like, oh yeah.
183
00:11:39,300 --> 00:11:41,700
Yeah, take your time.
We'll be here hanging.
184
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,400
We just be here hanging at the
Cracker Barrel in the middle of
185
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,800
Alabama.
Yeah, just gonna hang out here.
186
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,600
No way.
People eat chicken fried steak
187
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,500
next to him.
Yeah, yeah exactly.
188
00:11:52,500 --> 00:12:01,200
You got Marcus and Mike walking
in with Lewis bags and Now, once
189
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,200
I started taking pictures, I
think people started like, he's
190
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,900
somebody famous.
Let's figure out what's here
191
00:12:05,900 --> 00:12:07,600
today.
I just guys don't take long
192
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,500
after that.
I got my I got my signatures and
193
00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:11,700
left.
There you go.
194
00:12:12,300 --> 00:12:13,800
Thanks, thank you for waiting
for me.
195
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,900
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Yeah, we'll go home because I
196
00:12:15,908 --> 00:12:18,500
know you want to probably eat
and go back to wherever you go.
197
00:12:19,100 --> 00:12:21,600
All right.
Well tally again, it's awesome.
198
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,700
That you are now going to be
joining us and you know what, we
199
00:12:25,700 --> 00:12:29,200
thought we had this rundown.
We got together about what 9:00
200
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:30,600
this morning went through thing.
Things.
201
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:35,200
Hey, we ready to go and of
course what happens this
202
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,200
afternoon that the breaking news
comes out, Andy bitter.
203
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,400
First reported it, come from
Justin Williams at the athletic
204
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:46,800
that quarterback coach Brad.
Glenn is going to be taking over
205
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,100
as the Cincinnati.
Bearcats offensive coordinator
206
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,800
and quarterback coach and a
statement from Brent pry.
207
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,900
He just basically says he wants
to congratulate Brad on his new
208
00:12:56,900 --> 00:13:00,200
opportunity at Cincinnati as the
o.c.
209
00:13:00,500 --> 00:13:03,500
He rises long-standing
relationship with Scott
210
00:13:03,500 --> 00:13:06,800
Satterfield to coach at Sensi,
who was previously at
211
00:13:06,808 --> 00:13:10,000
Louisville.
Basically, a lot of time with
212
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:12,800
them their he's thankful for
bread and supporting his career
213
00:13:13,100 --> 00:13:16,400
and they appreciate his family's
time and wish him the best.
214
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,800
It's really late in the process
but I won't blame Brian for this
215
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:25,300
because his Colts decided to go
higher the Cincinnati.
216
00:13:25,300 --> 00:13:28,100
OH see just a couple days ago,
it's my fault.
217
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:36,300
Okay, I guess be real y'all.
It is not the best time.
218
00:13:36,300 --> 00:13:39,900
We are about three weeks away,
right?
219
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:41,800
I'm on a new computer here.
What?
220
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,300
Three weeks away from Spring
ball.
221
00:13:43,300 --> 00:13:46,100
Getting real four weeks away.
Yeah. 34 weeks away from pretty
222
00:13:46,100 --> 00:13:47,100
cool dolls.
Yeah.
223
00:13:47,300 --> 00:13:51,800
From getting going and now we're
at a point where we're going to
224
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,000
have to bring in a new
quarterback coach or someone may
225
00:13:55,000 --> 00:14:00,100
be an offensive analyst and
we've got to figure this out.
226
00:14:00,100 --> 00:14:03,200
So Tally, I'll leave with you.
When you, when you read the
227
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:04,900
stuff they what was your first
couple thoughts?
228
00:14:05,900 --> 00:14:09,300
I'm a little different man.
You know, I was like, so what
229
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,000
I'd say it like that, but it was
like, I didn't really have a
230
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:17,000
feeling toward it because I
haven't paid much attention to
231
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,700
brag.
Liam, I'm sure he's a great
232
00:14:19,700 --> 00:14:25,000
coach of great guy for him to
get a raise and, you know, to go
233
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,800
up in job because I think he's
also see where he's going right
234
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,400
now.
Yeah, I'm sure he's got some
235
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:32,700
skill.
But I hadn't I hadn't seen his
236
00:14:32,700 --> 00:14:37,600
value at Virginia Tech yet.
So it wasn't like, it was crazy
237
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,700
news to me that he was leaving.
Again not great timing.
238
00:14:40,700 --> 00:14:42,900
So that is a little bit
alarming.
239
00:14:42,900 --> 00:14:45,700
Like, what are we going to do in
typical Virginia Tech fashion?
240
00:14:45,700 --> 00:14:48,700
They're probably going to hire
from within promote somebody
241
00:14:48,700 --> 00:14:52,400
until next year or something,
but when you talk about, maybe
242
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:57,600
recruiting or even some of the
primary pieces that he was
243
00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,600
coaching a lot of times they
mentioned, Bow and more than a
244
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,800
mentioned.
Glenn are from what I heard.
245
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:08,600
So it wasn't it wasn't up in
arms, you know what I'm saying?
246
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,600
Like you're somebody would have
said Chris Marvin's leaving
247
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,400
today or Tyler Bowens leaving
today.
248
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,900
I would have been like oh
there's a season, you know what
249
00:15:16,900 --> 00:15:18,400
I mean?
We're going to hit me a little
250
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,200
different, got you.
They said when they said Glenn
251
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,100
is leaving, it was just like
okay we gotta replace him but
252
00:15:24,700 --> 00:15:28,100
yeah, I know for what we are.
I think we are.
253
00:15:28,100 --> 00:15:32,200
Okay, got it Ron.
Yeah, I kind of felt separately.
254
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,800
I mean, I was looking at it and
I was like, all right, well,
255
00:15:35,700 --> 00:15:39,600
because I'm kind of indifferent.
All the value that brag Glenn
256
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,200
was bringing at this point,
because when we looked at it, we
257
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:49,300
saw We looked at it.
We got not the greatest output
258
00:15:49,300 --> 00:15:52,700
last year but you weren't
working with a whole lot but
259
00:15:52,700 --> 00:15:55,100
Brad hadn't done a whole lot on
the recruiting Trail either.
260
00:15:55,100 --> 00:15:57,000
You know a lot of the guys that
have been brought in even
261
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:02,400
quarterbacks had been you know
Bowen guys so especially we look
262
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,400
at our own drones in particular
that was a guy that Boeing went
263
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,800
out there.
He got to bolster up the
264
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:12,600
quarterback room so when we look
at it from that perspective you
265
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,800
know a lot of lot of my opinion
on This is good or bad for the
266
00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,300
Hokies.
Give depend on who the next guy
267
00:16:19,300 --> 00:16:24,900
is, if it's a internal
promotion, then it's probably a
268
00:16:24,900 --> 00:16:29,100
net -, yes, we're probably
looking at a drop off in terms
269
00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:33,900
of overall coaching ability.
Whether we're you know, getting
270
00:16:33,900 --> 00:16:36,400
a little bit of that back on
some of the recruiting side,
271
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,900
that's to be seen.
But on the from that front,
272
00:16:39,900 --> 00:16:41,000
that's when it would be a
negative.
273
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,900
But if we go out and get
somebody that has some, you
274
00:16:43,900 --> 00:16:48,500
know, either The G5 or power 5
experience to come in and take
275
00:16:48,500 --> 00:16:50,800
that role.
Then I think that might
276
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,400
potentially be a net positive.
Especially if that person is
277
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,500
shown some aptitude on the
recruiting Trail before us and
278
00:16:56,500 --> 00:16:58,900
especially if they've been
recruiting in this footprint.
279
00:16:59,900 --> 00:17:03,200
Yeah, I mean I'm with y'all on
the way, I mean, I don't like
280
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,800
the timing of it, but as far as
Brad, Glenn goes, this was his
281
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,800
first power 5 job.
Brad had been a coach, you know,
282
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,500
in the Collegiate ranks since
2005.
283
00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:15,200
He was a tap State forever,
Western Carolina, Georgia State.
284
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,800
So this was his first step up
and then having the relationship
285
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:24,000
with Scott Satterfield.
Okay.
286
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,099
Here's Robbie as one of our
coaching buddies, their tally
287
00:17:27,099 --> 00:17:30,300
that you will meet soon.
Trust me and I think y'all are
288
00:17:30,300 --> 00:17:34,900
gonna hit it off, great, but
it's also a friend Emma Skye
289
00:17:34,900 --> 00:17:37,500
Satterfield coach together for
quite a few years up adapt
290
00:17:37,500 --> 00:17:38,900
State.
They had a relationship.
291
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,100
And then you're saying for us is
like hey can you blame him?
292
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,400
Hey come Be My OC.
W pay be in charge of
293
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,500
everything.
We're going to the big 12 next
294
00:17:49,500 --> 00:17:51,900
year.
No and if for nothing else it
295
00:17:51,900 --> 00:17:54,400
again it's going to look at as
far as ramp rago's.
296
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,400
It's like well way saying if you
come here you might have an
297
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,300
opportunity to take a step if
you have those connections
298
00:18:01,700 --> 00:18:05,800
because you know, even though it
wasn't the best output in even
299
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,900
though Brad's not the best
recruiter, I think Brad's
300
00:18:07,900 --> 00:18:10,300
probably a good solid.
Collegiate football, coach.
301
00:18:10,300 --> 00:18:13,700
But what we're talking about and
it's like, we're buying saying,
302
00:18:13,700 --> 00:18:18,000
like it's neutral right now,
depending on who we hire is, he
303
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,200
wasn't in on drones, that was
bowling.
304
00:18:20,500 --> 00:18:22,300
He wasn't in on Pop Watson,
who's the guy?
305
00:18:22,300 --> 00:18:25,600
We flip the four star that was
flipped at the end of the cycle
306
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:30,300
last time.
So, you know, it's like it
307
00:18:30,300 --> 00:18:31,400
sucks.
It's close.
308
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,200
But you feel like we can
probably put someone there.
309
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:39,800
Maybe not as good as a coach but
maybe a better After which, in
310
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,900
this day and age, you know,
you've got to be able to recruit
311
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:45,500
and let's talk about
Replacements, you know, Brian
312
00:18:45,500 --> 00:18:47,000
just through.
I mean, Robbie, just threw a
313
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,700
name up there that I hadn't even
thought about Brian Crispin, a
314
00:18:50,100 --> 00:18:52,700
been, a offensive analyst you
for a couple years.
315
00:18:52,700 --> 00:18:57,100
Does he get his shot?
Possibly possibly.
316
00:18:57,100 --> 00:18:59,600
Yeah we got it.
We have somebody on the roster
317
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,000
this done done some of that.
I mean Chris has done some of
318
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,100
that, we got another guy that's
younger than some of that.
319
00:19:04,100 --> 00:19:08,400
So we got to probably a couple
guys that could be looking in
320
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,300
line for promotion and tally.
I'll let you go go and your
321
00:19:11,300 --> 00:19:11,600
point.
Yeah.
322
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:15,100
So my thing is if you look at
the quarterback room and you
323
00:19:15,108 --> 00:19:20,500
look at the quarterback position
from last year, can it get
324
00:19:20,500 --> 00:19:24,300
worse?
I mean, I'm not.
325
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,600
Last note, we have nine
interceptions.
326
00:19:55,300 --> 00:19:59,500
Somebody internally in there.
I don't think that you can get
327
00:19:59,500 --> 00:20:01,300
worse than we were.
There you go.
328
00:20:01,300 --> 00:20:04,700
That's a good idea.
And I and also just say drones
329
00:20:04,700 --> 00:20:06,600
comes in and he tears it up this
year.
330
00:20:07,300 --> 00:20:10,500
What what do you do?
I mean with the with the job
331
00:20:11,100 --> 00:20:13,700
it's true.
If the guy who's coaching them
332
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,800
that you say, it's his, he done
it and then you promote him full
333
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,900
term out.
It's a lot of ways to go.
334
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,200
A lot of ways to go and it's
going to be interesting to see
335
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,100
what happens in.
The next few weeks here about
336
00:20:27,100 --> 00:20:28,900
that position and I don't think
we're going to be waiting.
337
00:20:28,900 --> 00:20:31,000
Long mean, it was our plan is
probably come on here.
338
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,600
Next week, I had a feeling
there's going to be one in place
339
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,100
by then we will be talking about
it.
340
00:20:35,500 --> 00:20:41,600
So let's roll on on last week in
this was after tally joined, but
341
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:45,100
he was at work, one day making
the bread because we, you know,
342
00:20:45,300 --> 00:20:48,600
we are three full-time.
We have our professional
343
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,700
careers, we got on his
husband's, we are fathers.
344
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:58,200
So, there's gonna be times where
only one of or two of us all
345
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,100
really.
That's why you won't Brian Kris.
346
00:21:00,100 --> 00:21:03,200
Hyung, was he there when you
play know?
347
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:05,900
He would.
Okay, what the Ryan, silver
348
00:21:05,900 --> 00:21:13,000

people because I don't know if
359
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,100

360
00:21:47,100 --> 00:21:50,000
But Brian, let's roll the Katie

The r-va glad you're able to hop

371
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:29,300

We know you got a lot to do.
So we really appreciate you
373
00:22:32,408 --> 00:22:34,600

Appreciate your having for here.
374
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:37,300
Awesome.
Well, let's, let's let's start
375
00:22:37,300 --> 00:22:39,600
right here because we see the
pictures.
376
00:22:39,900 --> 00:22:42,300
We see the videos from the
winter workout.
377
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,700
How's the body feeling about a
month into the offseason
378
00:22:45,700 --> 00:22:47,200
strength and conditioning
program?
379
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,700
So far, it's been it's been
pretty good on the offseason
380
00:22:52,700 --> 00:22:55,400
week.
We went home for the December
381
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,300
break out of like a plan to
like, lose a little bit of
382
00:22:58,300 --> 00:23:01,100
weight without start feeling
good.
383
00:23:01,100 --> 00:23:04,000
I'd be ready to run because I
know we come back and all
384
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,600
running right into it.
I'm not a good way.
385
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:08,700
I'm at a good strength right
now.
386
00:23:08,700 --> 00:23:10,300
I'm like building.
So I feel ya.
387
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,400
It's been good.
Do something here.
388
00:23:13,700 --> 00:23:15,900
That's also and I know that I
know coach prior kind of
389
00:23:15,900 --> 00:23:19,100
preaches that that competition
in the, in those strength, and
390
00:23:19,100 --> 00:23:21,400
conditioning drills.
How's that going for you so far?
391
00:23:22,100 --> 00:23:24,900
I've been good.
Yeah, I love coach prize.
392
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:29,600
I love the competition aspect.
He brings like everything, you
393
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,400
know, practice, no hunger,
drills.
394
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,800
Even workouts.
Like at the end of every hunger
395
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,900
drill.
We do like three different
396
00:23:38,900 --> 00:23:44,400
versions of competition, whether
it be tire pool, Pull a team, a
397
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:49,400
team one is the tug of war and
then they have the horse and
398
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:53,100
Chariot where they put like 500
pounds on a sled put it on your
399
00:23:53,100 --> 00:23:54,600
back and we just have to pull
it.
400
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,700
Yeah, there's a lot.
It's that be fun.
401
00:23:57,700 --> 00:24:00,800
It's a good way to like end the
hunger drill and it off with a
402
00:24:00,808 --> 00:24:03,000
right.
I got a right step but I mean,
403
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,300
yeah, it's fun.
It's definitely definitely good.
404
00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:13,700
Which of those three is your
favorite Well the The Chariot
405
00:24:13,700 --> 00:24:17,500
one was introduced like last
week and I've been uprooted I
406
00:24:17,500 --> 00:24:20,300
was the first one to do and I
don't know, it's weird.
407
00:24:20,300 --> 00:24:24,000
It's like you're dragging it but
like like you're on all fours,
408
00:24:24,500 --> 00:24:27,100
you can read and you have to
make sure you're on the ground
409
00:24:27,100 --> 00:24:29,400
and like you're pulling it and
the weights coming up.
410
00:24:29,700 --> 00:24:32,500
But like you have to, like it's
hard to explain, they get to
411
00:24:32,500 --> 00:24:36,400
like balance how much rope You
Pull and how far it goes?
412
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,100
Because if you pull too hard at
once all going to go forward and
413
00:24:39,100 --> 00:24:40,900
you're not going to, you're
gonna have a lot of rope left
414
00:24:40,900 --> 00:24:43,200
that A sense.
Yeah, yeah.
415
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,000
So you get like almost pulling
it, too, too fast.
416
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,400
It's going to kind of dig in and
like to come with you.
417
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,500
Got you?
Yeah, that's like probably the
418
00:24:51,500 --> 00:24:54,200
tire pull because that's like
one-on-one, you know, you like,
419
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,200
you're getting it out the mud,
like, against another man.
420
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,900
So I mean, probably Tire pool
are y'all going against
421
00:24:58,900 --> 00:25:00,300
defensive players?
When y'all do that?
422
00:25:00,300 --> 00:25:02,500
Or is it, is it ou Lai en mano a
mano?
423
00:25:03,100 --> 00:25:06,400
Oh, he likes to mix it up.
He puts, you know, he'd look
424
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,200
like quarterback birth
quarterback and like quarterback
425
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:12,500
battle, but if usually 40 lines,
whose University learn Nice.
426
00:25:12,900 --> 00:25:15,500
Very, very nice.
Who's so since we're doing that,
427
00:25:15,500 --> 00:25:17,600
who's your favorite person to go
up against an entire pool?
428
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,900
Well last year they put me up
against my brother.
429
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,300
That was my favorite person
because I mean you know it's
430
00:25:25,300 --> 00:25:28,700
just brother on brother like the
most like pure competition even
431
00:25:28,700 --> 00:25:31,900
from like your kid that was kind
of my favorite one and it
432
00:25:31,900 --> 00:25:34,100
definitely takes you back
probably he's like yeah I've
433
00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:36,100
been doing this my whole life
like exactly.
434
00:25:39,700 --> 00:25:41,800
All right, so let's let's put it
this way.
435
00:25:42,500 --> 00:25:46,000
This offseason into spring.
What's one part of your game
436
00:25:46,100 --> 00:25:50,900
that you're trying to focus on?
I don't know if this is part of
437
00:25:50,900 --> 00:25:53,200
the game but I never really
liked my leadership.
438
00:25:54,100 --> 00:25:57,300
I want to like become the like
the leader of the old line
439
00:25:57,300 --> 00:26:01,300
leader of the Hogs, you know,
embody that leadership like
440
00:26:01,300 --> 00:26:03,300
mine.
So I think last year we had
441
00:26:03,300 --> 00:26:08,600
great leaders like soil.
Listen, obviously they are going
442
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:10,700
to be on a fellow.
So I mean, I'm the next up, me
443
00:26:10,700 --> 00:26:12,700
and Parker.
So I mean just being a leader
444
00:26:12,700 --> 00:26:16,500
being vocal though.
Being the head of the group is
445
00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:20,300
basically what I'm trying to get
better and we love hearing that
446
00:26:20,300 --> 00:26:24,000
because back last month we did
an episode called alpha dogs and
447
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,500
we talked about the o-line and
we talked about losing about
448
00:26:28,500 --> 00:26:31,700
losing salicin, and I'm going to
be straight up Brian.
449
00:26:32,300 --> 00:26:35,100
Brought your name up.
He said, I think Kane can take.
450
00:26:35,300 --> 00:26:38,200
Stuff.
And and I love hearing that
451
00:26:38,300 --> 00:26:42,300
that's be drive for because as
fans of this football team, we
452
00:26:42,300 --> 00:26:45,900
know how good you played last
year and it's great to see that
453
00:26:45,900 --> 00:26:47,600
you're ready to step into that
role.
454
00:26:48,500 --> 00:26:51,400
And I know the fans out there
going to be glad to hear it as
455
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:55,000
well.
You, you came to Blacksburg by
456
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:59,300
way of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania
who was recruiting, you the
457
00:26:59,300 --> 00:27:03,700
hardest when you were a prospect
and what were the factors that
458
00:27:03,700 --> 00:27:06,100
kind of LED you to pick?
Virginia Tech.
459
00:27:07,900 --> 00:27:12,500
Um, well, my recruiting was
really quiet for the most part.
460
00:27:12,500 --> 00:27:17,700
I mean, I only had 2 FPS offers
with Bowling Green and Virginia
461
00:27:17,700 --> 00:27:20,900
Tech and then the rest were, I
think they got 5 STS.
462
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:21,900
I don't remember which ones they
were.
463
00:27:21,900 --> 00:27:26,600
Riding Monmouth Robert Morris,
some other ones, but definitely
464
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,900
bullying green.
They, they recruited me for like
465
00:27:28,900 --> 00:27:33,300
a whole year.
Like sent me letters called me.
466
00:27:33,300 --> 00:27:35,100
Every day.
Saw me in school every day.
467
00:27:35,300 --> 00:27:37,800
Day.
So yeah, they recruited me hard
468
00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,600
but now I was 12 like, when I
went at came in to come, see me.
469
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,500
That was like, I want to go to
Tech like that, was out of my
470
00:27:45,500 --> 00:27:47,600
mind.
So I went to, I went to like
471
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,700
three camps, I still didn't get
an offer, I was like, maybe,
472
00:27:51,100 --> 00:27:55,600
maybe it was not right.
And the Sunday before, the last
473
00:27:55,600 --> 00:28:01,500
signing day, I got a call from
the old line coach place, and I
474
00:28:01,508 --> 00:28:04,600
mean, they offered me, I went
the official on edge committed.
475
00:28:05,300 --> 00:28:08,500
Nice.
Very nice to see and let's talk
476
00:28:08,500 --> 00:28:10,800
about that a little bit.
So you committed and then you
477
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:14,200
kind of burst on to the scene in
2021 with the big year after
478
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:15,900
being in the 2D during the covid
year.
479
00:28:15,900 --> 00:28:20,600
You turn that into 13 starts
freshman All-American, second
480
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,400
team selection by the athletic.
What do you think?
481
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:26,200
Played the biggest role in your
early success in Blacksburg?
482
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,200
I definitely hundred percent say
Brock Hoffman.
483
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,400
I mean from the first moment I
stepped foot on that campus.
484
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,900
Like you took me under his wing.
Literally taught me almost
485
00:28:39,900 --> 00:28:41,500
everything I know up to this
time.
486
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,700
I mean he was like the like the
leader for me when I was young
487
00:28:45,700 --> 00:28:47,600
like even my first year like it
wasn't.
488
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:49,800
He's a senior, I'm a freshman I
could talk to me.
489
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:53,000
Like it was he saw like my
potential and he was like, I'm
490
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,500
gonna like he kind of said that
like me and him were kind of the
491
00:28:56,500 --> 00:28:58,700
same.
In some aspects of our game,
492
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,200
like, do aggressiveness, the
like, grabbing people and
493
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,200
finishing up.
So he kind of took me under his
494
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:08,500
wing from early standpoint and
taught me stuff that he wasn't
495
00:29:08,500 --> 00:29:10,900
doing other people.
I mean I feel like that was one
496
00:29:10,900 --> 00:29:14,400
of the big things for me at a
young age about a young time.
497
00:29:14,700 --> 00:29:18,000
I'm coming in here and that has
to make you feel good because
498
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,700
Brock you know for those couple
years he was here he was the
499
00:29:20,700 --> 00:29:23,600
leader of that old line and now
he's obviously I mean finding
500
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,200
success staying you know with
Cleveland for a while and then
501
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,800
being on dialysis Master.
I love hearing that though.
502
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,300
And have you kind of taken that
role?
503
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,300
Have you other than your
brother?
504
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,300
Obviously, I'll have you taken
any of the young guys now, that
505
00:29:37,300 --> 00:29:39,700
because like you said, you're
kind of your kind of the older
506
00:29:39,700 --> 00:29:43,600
guy in that room now.
Yeah, I mean, I'm trying my, I'm
507
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,600
like I'm trying to, like, learn
how to be that lead to learn how
508
00:29:46,608 --> 00:29:50,500
to be the guy that like shows
the other guys, the way to go.
509
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,300
Yeah, I say I'm sure.
Yeah, I'm trying.
510
00:29:53,300 --> 00:29:55,400
That's that's why I'm trying,
I'm trying, I'm trying to learn
511
00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:56,600
how to do it.
I should say.
512
00:29:57,500 --> 00:29:59,500
Nothing in that.
Absolutely.
513
00:29:59,500 --> 00:30:02,600
Absolutely.
You know let's talk let's keep
514
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,200
talking about the offensive line
a little bit here.
515
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,800
We know that there was some up
and downs last season but the
516
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,400
ship kind of steadied out
towards the end of the season.
517
00:30:11,300 --> 00:30:14,500
Were there any shifts in
philosophy or Preparation?
518
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,100
That kind of allowed the
offensive line unit to jail in
519
00:30:17,100 --> 00:30:23,500
November?
Um, I'd say coach Rudolph was
520
00:30:24,500 --> 00:30:28,400
the real reason for any gel and
he really just, he puts people
521
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:31,000
together and practice and he
pretty much figures out who's
522
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,600
the best on which side.
So he thought Jesse was good
523
00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:36,700
with Silas and he thought I was
going Parker because me and
524
00:30:36,700 --> 00:30:41,700
Parker we played last year.
I think we started 66 out of the
525
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,600
12 or 13 game and we I mean I
feel like we measure pretty
526
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,200
good, so he wanted to keep us
together and so I was already
527
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:49,700
had the left path.
Sprouts.
528
00:30:49,700 --> 00:30:53,600
I mean like that was one of the
driving forces in the gentleman
529
00:30:55,200 --> 00:31:01,100
is is he looking at any sort of
position changes or anything
530
00:31:01,100 --> 00:31:04,100
like that across the guys that
are returning this year or kind
531
00:31:04,100 --> 00:31:06,200
of cross training folks in
different positions?
532
00:31:07,300 --> 00:31:11,400
Yeah.
So I've adopted the center Rule
533
00:31:11,900 --> 00:31:15,000
and me and like me and Braylon
I've basically been rotating but
534
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:19,600
I'm trying to like, pick up and
be the, like, the center, From
535
00:31:19,900 --> 00:31:23,200
like for this year.
So I'm trying to, I've never
536
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,300
been like a center, I'm never
like Snap.
537
00:31:25,300 --> 00:31:29,400
So I mean I've been practicing
since the end of the season.
538
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:32,300
So yeah, I know.
I've definitely gotten better
539
00:31:32,300 --> 00:31:34,200
at, I know, like, all the
technical stuff.
540
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:38,000
So, basically, just trying to
figure out like, how to get
541
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:41,000
better at that position because
I know I've been a guard, I was
542
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,300
a tackle in high school like I
believe.
543
00:31:43,700 --> 00:31:49,100
But yeah, kind of like yeah.
And it kind of slowly moving
544
00:31:49,300 --> 00:31:51,400
Moving down the line, right?
Get moving down the line.
545
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,900
Exact, man you're gonna have
like everything on your resume
546
00:31:54,900 --> 00:31:57,400
by the time.
It's, you know you know maybe
547
00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:00,900
even next year at this time,
going into the going into the
548
00:32:00,900 --> 00:32:03,300
draft, like I played center, I
played guard, I played left, I
549
00:32:03,300 --> 00:32:05,600
played right, I'll pay tackle, I
can do anything.
550
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:11,500
You want that good that you do?
You have had two coaches since
551
00:32:11,500 --> 00:32:14,500
being here, you know, coach
coach, Vance, Vice.
552
00:32:15,100 --> 00:32:19,100
And now one year under coach
Rudolph, what's the one thing?
553
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,800
You learn from each of those
gentlemen, that has helped you
554
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:28,400
become a better player.
I definitely say my career.
555
00:32:29,500 --> 00:32:33,500
I think it was a blessing that I
had code advice in my first two
556
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:37,000
years because he taught me like
grittiness, like he taught me
557
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:42,100
like, I don't know, like, his
mentality was like killed.
558
00:32:42,100 --> 00:32:46,300
Like he taught me how to be
like, a warrior like young age.
559
00:32:46,300 --> 00:32:48,600
Doesn't matter.
Like you just put your head down
560
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,200
and work.
It wasn't.
561
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,600
It wasn't much technique to it,
but you were hitting people
562
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:58,500
every day with your head.
So and then Coach Rudi comes in
563
00:32:58,500 --> 00:33:02,000
and he's all technique.
So I mean I'm learning all the
564
00:33:02,300 --> 00:33:07,400
hand, placement feet placement
like everything.
565
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,300
I need to know to build me into
the complete.
566
00:33:09,300 --> 00:33:11,800
Lineman that makes sense.
But now say this could.
567
00:33:11,900 --> 00:33:16,200
Yeah so I mean you talked about
being a leader but you also play
568
00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:21,700
along alongside your brother
there he was he got a lot of run
569
00:33:21,700 --> 00:33:25,700
last year at left guard.
What's it Like having your
570
00:33:25,700 --> 00:33:32,200
little brother on the team.
Just being able to play beside
571
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,300
him.
I know, is that something that
572
00:33:34,300 --> 00:33:36,400
you have kind of been
experiencing for a while and
573
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,100
it's just kind of a natural
progression or is it something
574
00:33:39,100 --> 00:33:43,500
that that takes getting used to?
Well, I mean when he started
575
00:33:43,500 --> 00:33:46,900
getting recruited, he's not
getting some big offers like,
576
00:33:46,900 --> 00:33:48,300
you know, bigger than mine
obviously.
577
00:33:48,500 --> 00:33:50,800
Yeah.
Like pit and you know, West
578
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,100
Virginia is.
I was like, I don't know.
579
00:33:52,100 --> 00:33:54,500
But I was basically like you
need to come here.
580
00:33:54,500 --> 00:33:56,800
Like you need to like be a part
of this because it's like we're
581
00:33:56,800 --> 00:34:00,700
building something.
But yeah, it's an awesome just
582
00:34:00,700 --> 00:34:03,200
like high school.
There's a chemistry there.
583
00:34:03,500 --> 00:34:05,600
We're basically like the same
person to me.
584
00:34:06,800 --> 00:34:08,600
We have like the same
characteristics.
585
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,500
Like the same like everything.
Like what?
586
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,100
Laughs, that was the same thing.
Like I feel like our
587
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:15,400
aggressiveness is the same
thing.
588
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:16,699
Like, I don't know.
I feel like we're just the same
589
00:34:16,699 --> 00:34:20,500
person so it's just easy to like
be next to him because iron oh
590
00:34:20,500 --> 00:34:24,400
he's like he's going to do.
Man, I love hearing
591
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,600
aggressiveness and emptiness
because I can remember bronze
592
00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:29,900
the tape near here.
I can't look at football team,
593
00:34:29,900 --> 00:34:33,000
but I don't have that skill
Braun does and I can remember
594
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,900
him.
Remember the first time you
595
00:34:34,908 --> 00:34:37,400
looked at Caden stay because
that was the like, one of our
596
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:42,199
first episodes like nasty
trials, people doesn't stop
597
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:44,699
until literally two seconds
after the whistle.
598
00:34:45,100 --> 00:34:48,000
And then when we recruited
Braylon it was just you said it
599
00:34:48,007 --> 00:34:50,000
was the same way.
Like so when I hear it's like
600
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:51,800
you're the same person on the
football field.
601
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,699
Y'all definitely.
ER, but playstyle definitely
602
00:34:54,699 --> 00:34:56,500
very similar.
So, I mean, I definitely tell
603
00:34:56,500 --> 00:35:03,000
you came from the same spot as
last year.
604
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,500
Y'all are on the field at the
same time.
605
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:08,500
And I know you've done that your
whole life, but when there's,
606
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,200
you know, a bust a big run and
you see it on tape.
607
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:12,600
And I know, I know that's
technical.
608
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,700
That's work for y'all.
But is there like a spot where
609
00:35:15,700 --> 00:35:18,200
it's like, oh, look at us.
Look at the, he got the combo,
610
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,900
he got up field.
I held the guy turned light.
611
00:35:20,900 --> 00:35:24,100
What's that feel knowing That's
Blood on the other side, a
612
00:35:24,107 --> 00:35:28,800
little, it's definitely cool.
I mean, Sunday, is the day that
613
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:33,300
we come in and I'll watch like,
like the tape together as
614
00:35:33,300 --> 00:35:35,800
offensive line.
It's definitely cool to like see
615
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:40,500
him like progress because he
started here as a d lineman in
616
00:35:40,500 --> 00:35:41,100
the sun.
Yeah.
617
00:35:41,500 --> 00:35:43,600
They made him in or in the
spring and then they made him
618
00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,300
into a whole Amin.
They brought him to the old one
619
00:35:47,900 --> 00:35:49,600
for the summer.
The spring summer.
620
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,500
Yeah.
And not see how much he's grown.
621
00:35:53,700 --> 00:35:55,800
Up to this point is this like
that's the best thing for me
622
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:59,400
like when he first got to wanna,
I mean I know he was gonna be
623
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:04,100
ready to block like you know,
like norell Pollard or Rio.
624
00:36:04,500 --> 00:36:07,200
But I mean he was ready.
I mean I don't know.
625
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:08,900
I feel like that's the best
thing just seeing this growth
626
00:36:08,900 --> 00:36:13,300
and see how mature he's become
and even like being like a Lily
627
00:36:13,700 --> 00:36:16,200
Young leader.
So I mean, I feel like Samson
628
00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,200
and it's awesome.
I got.
629
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:19,600
Yeah, because he would have, you
would have picked it up pretty
630
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:23,100
quick because, you know, you
talk about eating those There's
631
00:36:23,100 --> 00:36:27,400
not a ton of of time to kind of
get that learning like spring is
632
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,900
when a lot of that install
happens when a lot of the kind
633
00:36:29,900 --> 00:36:32,300
of the building blocks are there
and he was a youth on defensive
634
00:36:32,300 --> 00:36:34,600
line that whole time.
So it's awesome.
635
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,500
Seeing how quick he was able to
pick that up and be a
636
00:36:36,500 --> 00:36:39,900
contributor his first year on
offensive line for the Hokies.
637
00:36:39,900 --> 00:36:42,000
That's awesome.
Now, I have a question for you.
638
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,100
Did you were you and Coach Rudi?
Gudde, I'll see you saying.
639
00:36:45,100 --> 00:36:46,700
Listen, you got to get him over
here.
640
00:36:47,100 --> 00:36:51,500
You gotta give me.
I mean, I've seen some who spit
641
00:36:51,500 --> 00:36:53,500
on me.
Was that bad deal?
642
00:36:53,500 --> 00:36:56,800
I'm and I just felt like we
needed him at o-line more than
643
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,700
we need him at be like that
makes sense and I knew that he
644
00:36:59,700 --> 00:37:04,000
could like a potential starter
or even something we could plug
645
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,900
in and play early.
So I mean I feel like that it
646
00:37:06,900 --> 00:37:09,200
was just better for him and for
the team.
647
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,400
Yep, makes your team better
better opportunity for him to
648
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:15,800
get on the field quick.
So it's always a good thing.
649
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,200
Let's let's say as this.
So you know, we talked about the
650
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:21,700
offensive line room, a lot
already.
651
00:37:21,700 --> 00:37:24,700
So who's the funniest person in
the offensive line room right
652
00:37:24,700 --> 00:37:28,600
now?
Who funniest person offensive
653
00:37:28,600 --> 00:37:30,700
wine room?
I mean I'm probably going to
654
00:37:31,300 --> 00:37:33,500
besides Braylon because that's
probably won't be dessert.
655
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:35,800
Okay.
Yeah, besides your brother.
656
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:41,100
Yeah.
And you can vote yourself if you
657
00:37:41,100 --> 00:37:46,600
want to.
I'll probably say Xavier Chapel,
658
00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:50,200
I mean, it's a different humor
because he doesn't, he doesn't
659
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,000
talk that much.
So, I mean, you have to get to
660
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,200
know him for him to talk to you.
But once he opens up, he's
661
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,600
probably funniest Obama known
that our o-line is, he like
662
00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:00,900
dropping the one-liners, like,
kind of in the background just
663
00:38:00,900 --> 00:38:03,300
like, yeah, Larry's one laundry.
Yeah.
664
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,500
This wasn't, this is not on the
run down list, but I have to ask
665
00:38:11,500 --> 00:38:14,700
this, I told Brown, I was the
last this earlier today, all the
666
00:38:14,700 --> 00:38:19,100
offensive, lineman goes to an
all-you-can-eat buffet at the
667
00:38:19,100 --> 00:38:29,400
end, who has the plates stacked,
the highest It's the most who
668
00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,500
eats the most on the offensive
line.
669
00:38:33,500 --> 00:38:38,700
I'm gonna have to go with either
Jack hollifield.
670
00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:42,000
There we go.
He gained so much weight so
671
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,100
quickly.
Yeah, yeah.
672
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,900
Or ask because he's massive.
So I mean he has to eat a lot.
673
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,800
So it's either because how big
he is eggs or because Jacqueline
674
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:05,100
from what like a 250 tight end
to infection, yeah, Jack put in
675
00:39:05,100 --> 00:39:07,900
like 45 pounds since he got to
Blacksburg and I think he had
676
00:39:07,900 --> 00:39:11,300
put on ten or fifteen between
when he committed and when he
677
00:39:11,300 --> 00:39:17,100
got on campus, so he's like plus
60 since he signed, that's
678
00:39:17,100 --> 00:39:18,300
pretty cool.
That's pretty cool.
679
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,200
Let's let's ask this next so so
we'll keep it in the Lyman room.
680
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,200
What's the go to competitive
game in the Players Lounge?
681
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:32,900
Amongst the 0 line?
0 has to be Injustice on the PS
682
00:39:32,900 --> 00:39:36,400
5.
All right, so when we do Hunger
683
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:41,900
drills, we come in at 5:00 is
when they start and they usually
684
00:39:41,900 --> 00:39:47,000
end around like 8 and then we
have to work out groups, one at
685
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:50,400
8 and then want to 10.
So we have that whole entire
686
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:55,100
time until 10:00 to just do
whatever and we just go all the
687
00:39:55,100 --> 00:39:58,600
way up to the players on just
play, Injustice, or like play a.
688
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,200
And so I mean either Injustice
or MBA is definitely the game
689
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:03,100
that we play.
All right, here's the.
690
00:40:03,100 --> 00:40:05,700
Who's the the character of
choice for you and Injustice?
691
00:40:07,700 --> 00:40:11,700
I'm about to go with Scarecrow,
he got the, he got the the thing
692
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:14,300
with the chain on it.
So he goes far so I would have
693
00:40:14,300 --> 00:40:19,200
to go Documented scarecrow is
the Injustice character for
694
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:23,000
Kayden more, right?
So it's like this is
695
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,600
long-standing tradition for?
I think just about every
696
00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:29,500
offensive lineman, or any player
we've ever interviewed here.
697
00:40:29,900 --> 00:40:33,700
We know that basketball is one
of those big kind of offseason
698
00:40:33,700 --> 00:40:35,800
stay in shape stay competitive
together.
699
00:40:36,500 --> 00:40:39,300
Who's the best Hooper in the
offensive line room.
700
00:40:42,500 --> 00:40:46,000
Last year, I would have, said
Silas, because he is like
701
00:40:46,100 --> 00:40:48,300
athletic.
Like, I never seen a big man
702
00:40:48,300 --> 00:40:53,600
dunk, like him, but on the old
line, I'd probably like nobody
703
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,300
because I've seen them all play,
and they're all really bad.
704
00:40:56,300 --> 00:41:03,500
So, yeah, yeah.
I see some clips of Xavier
705
00:41:03,900 --> 00:41:05,600
dunking.
Duncan, pretty good.
706
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,400
I don't know if he's got a got
any sort of other games?
707
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,800
Is he's a playmaker.
Or he can do anything else.
708
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,500
He can definitely throw it down
a little bit.
709
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:16,000
Yeah, he said he could dunk.
I'm not till I told him to go up
710
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:18,200
and dunk by me his knee.
Sorry, I don't know.
711
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:22,900
I don't know if he said, not
right now, not right now, I'll
712
00:41:22,900 --> 00:41:34,600
show off later.
What is your go-to spot in
713
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,900
Blacksburg?
Go to Blacksburg, got to be
714
00:41:37,900 --> 00:41:42,200
Chipotle.
Probably probably like three or
715
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,800
four times a week.
I have to love the boat with the
716
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:47,600
vinaigrette sauce.
What's the order?
717
00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:50,500
What's the order?
I do a bowl?
718
00:41:51,300 --> 00:41:52,800
You want the whole order?
Just like what?
719
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,500
I get just just next to this,
the highlights just to highlight
720
00:41:55,900 --> 00:42:00,300
oh and I get a side tortilla and
I put the half of it in a
721
00:42:00,308 --> 00:42:05,200
tortilla and then I eat that and
I need to pull things they want
722
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,100
and basically That's the move
right there.
723
00:42:08,100 --> 00:42:09,400
That's always the mood talk to
you on.
724
00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:12,100
The side is always the move, get
the bolt or t on the side.
725
00:42:12,500 --> 00:42:15,100
They said, they'd let you put
the tortilla on the side.
726
00:42:15,100 --> 00:42:18,200
And yeah, order the bowl, get a
tortilla, it's like 50 Cent or
727
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,100
something like seven, tortilla
on the side.
728
00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,800
You can make your own burrito,
you make your own burrito, and
729
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:24,700
then you eat the bowl after
Jack.
730
00:42:24,700 --> 00:42:25,600
Thank you.
Thank you.
731
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,000
Find out talking to Tech
football players.
732
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:31,100
Okay, man.
Listen, best of luck getting
733
00:42:31,100 --> 00:42:32,800
through the west of winter
workouts.
734
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,700
Best of luck in the spring and
the fall.
735
00:42:34,700 --> 00:42:37,600
If we don't speak to you before
then, We really appreciate you
736
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,100
joining us here tonight.
Thank you so much for having me.
737
00:42:40,100 --> 00:42:42,600
I really appreciate you guys
having me and I had a definite
738
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,100
had a great time.
Appreciate you saying, you have
739
00:42:45,100 --> 00:42:46,100
a good one.
You're shitting me.
740
00:42:50,100 --> 00:42:54,100
And we're back.
Well, that was Caden more.
741
00:42:54,100 --> 00:42:59,300
He joined us last Thursday, we
got to chop it up with him for a
742
00:42:59,300 --> 00:43:01,200
little while there.
I hope, everyone enjoyed that,
743
00:43:01,200 --> 00:43:02,500
any of you.
So, we're going to kind of,
744
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,500
we're gonna break things down a
little bit here, a little bit.
745
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,000
First of all, Brian, you didn't
tell me, you'd have Mike's, I'm
746
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:11,500
over here talking about a off.
And you've got to, um, use only
747
00:43:11,500 --> 00:43:15,200
cat that I was.
I was getting there.
748
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:18,300
Yeah.
Let's let's chat a few things.
749
00:43:19,300 --> 00:43:23,300
Obviously, some interesting
pieces brought up that No about.
750
00:43:23,300 --> 00:43:26,100
But I want to talk about this
first and from both of y'all who
751
00:43:26,100 --> 00:43:30,800
have played, you know, High
School, collegiate ball and I'll
752
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,700
pitch to Brian first because he
was the offensive lineman tally.
753
00:43:33,700 --> 00:43:37,100
I'm not not, not throw any other
bus, but I'm good with it.
754
00:43:37,100 --> 00:43:39,400
What he mentioned the difference
in the ol coaches.
755
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,400
When he talked about Vance,
Vice, really being a lot of
756
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:45,400
mentality driven versus Rudolph
being a technique.
757
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:50,000
Are you shocked Brian that there
were issues at that position
758
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,500
last year?
I'm not really shocked.
759
00:43:53,500 --> 00:43:57,700
So what it's telling me is that
there was a lot of things when
760
00:43:57,700 --> 00:44:00,300
Rudolph got in there and he was
like, all right, we got to kind
761
00:44:00,300 --> 00:44:03,400
of reset the reset Bud.
Get back to square one.
762
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,700
Little bit to build out the
technique because it sounds
763
00:44:06,700 --> 00:44:10,300
like, from from Rudolph's
perspective, he's going to be,
764
00:44:10,300 --> 00:44:13,800
he's going to give you the the
building blocks and then that's
765
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:15,200
when the mentality comes into
play.
766
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:19,000
Once you got all the building
blocks in place, whereas, in
767
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:22,200
sounds like, vices mentality was
go out there and be it.
768
00:44:22,300 --> 00:44:25,700
Dog.
And as long as you know the play
769
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,100
and you're going full speed will
work everything else out in the
770
00:44:29,100 --> 00:44:32,500
wash that's going to be get
worked out the film room or
771
00:44:32,500 --> 00:44:34,700
whatever.
So it sounds like there wasn't a
772
00:44:34,707 --> 00:44:39,100
whole lot of or at least, as
much kind of the building block
773
00:44:39,100 --> 00:44:41,600
techniques, you teenager.
He talked about hand placement
774
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:45,700
steps, things like that.
And, you know, a lot of that you
775
00:44:45,700 --> 00:44:48,400
learn in high school, but
there's, you know, when you're
776
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:53,100
Translating that into a new
system, Definitely need to kind
777
00:44:53,100 --> 00:44:57,900
of work on those those
Foundation techniques to really
778
00:44:57,900 --> 00:45:03,300
elevate your craft.
So I think a lot of that was Joe
779
00:45:03,300 --> 00:45:06,400
kind of turning things around
and saying, all right, we got to
780
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,600
get back to technique but then
some of the issues come in, when
781
00:45:11,100 --> 00:45:15,400
your brain, you're thinking too
much and you're not just kind of
782
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,600
getting where you need to go and
you saw it more with some
783
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,700
players and others.
I think, you know we talked
784
00:45:20,700 --> 00:45:23,800
about it a lot here at Last
year, Watching game tape and
785
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,000
things like that.
Looks like people are thinking
786
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,300
too much, we talked about how
that led to a lot of the
787
00:45:29,300 --> 00:45:32,100
offsides we talked about how
that led to some Miss
788
00:45:32,100 --> 00:45:33,800
assignments and things like
that.
789
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:38,600
It's like sometimes when when
your brain is doing a little too
790
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,800
much your feet, don't do what
they need to do.
791
00:45:46,500 --> 00:45:48,300
Tell me what you got.
I mean you mentioned a little
792
00:45:48,300 --> 00:45:52,200
earlier day to us about you play
tight in online and you here
793
00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:56,000
Brian you know Rudolph
techniques versus dog and you
794
00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:59,200
are like, well, when you're on
the line there's everything
795
00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:00,400
there's a million things going
on.
796
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:04,500
I see this a lot.
That's a lot going on that line,
797
00:46:04,500 --> 00:46:06,500
man.
Anybody who's ever been in the
798
00:46:06,508 --> 00:46:13,700
trenches and kind of, you know,
live that live that life, you
799
00:46:13,700 --> 00:46:16,800
got a million things going on,
you got What about calling
800
00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,000
plays?
You got your Center column
801
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:23,400
plays, you got their linebacker,
moving their line, you got Lyman
802
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:27,100
that are telling each other,
where to twist and where to go,
803
00:46:27,500 --> 00:46:30,400
and then you got people to just
being assholes, just talking to
804
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:34,800
you from the other side.
So if you haven't been in that
805
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:38,200
world, you know, it's easy to
say, well, how do they jump
806
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,700
offsides?
But you haven't been down in
807
00:46:40,700 --> 00:46:41,900
there.
You don't catch all of that
808
00:46:41,900 --> 00:46:45,500
stuff on TV.
What you have a million people
809
00:46:45,500 --> 00:46:48,300
talking And a million people
moving.
810
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:54,600
And like Brian said, sometimes
it's just thinking too much
811
00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,300
because you know what you're
supposed to do or you think you
812
00:46:57,300 --> 00:47:00,300
know what you're supposed to do
and something comes in and get
813
00:47:00,300 --> 00:47:04,900
you off of that or somebody
comes in and say something to
814
00:47:04,900 --> 00:47:08,100
you that you're just ready to
punch, you know?
815
00:47:08,100 --> 00:47:11,800
So it's a lot to goes on on that
line and I think we've seen it a
816
00:47:11,808 --> 00:47:14,900
lot of times what we had and I
don't even want to use the word
817
00:47:14,900 --> 00:47:18,800
young players, but we may have
had any experience players at
818
00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:24,300
certain places that caused some
of the extra movements and
819
00:47:24,300 --> 00:47:29,100
things that we had, especially
if you hadn't had a coach to
820
00:47:29,100 --> 00:47:34,600
tell you, you got to your first
step has to, this hand has to
821
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:38,000
move with your first step, or
when you take this step, you
822
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:41,400
have to punch this way.
You just have some coaches.
823
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,000
Just say, hey, just go hit
somebody.
824
00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:47,100
You know, but at the next level
I can't remember exactly which
825
00:47:47,100 --> 00:47:50,500
offensive lineman it was.
And I may have dreamed it, but I
826
00:47:50,500 --> 00:47:53,600
think somebody did an interview
and they talked and they said,
827
00:47:53,700 --> 00:47:58,100
when they went to the league
they had a they had to learn how
828
00:47:58,100 --> 00:48:01,200
to play like they had to learn
how to be office alignment.
829
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,900
Can't remember who it was, but I
need to do some research and
830
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:07,300
figure it out, but not talking
bad about Vice.
831
00:48:07,300 --> 00:48:10,200
I think he has some good stuff
but I don't think he was a very
832
00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,100
technical coach, you know, you
gotta listen.
833
00:48:12,900 --> 00:48:14,800
Listen.
The Cadence interview.
834
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:20,000
He he pretty much told people
just go hit so and when you're
835
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,700
when you're running a lot more
that zone to I mean a lot of
836
00:48:22,707 --> 00:48:25,800
that's already taught in high
school so when you're a very
837
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:31,100
Zone heavy scheme you know a lot
of that probably came into play
838
00:48:31,100 --> 00:48:33,600
with why wasn't as tactical?
He's like all right well they
839
00:48:34,300 --> 00:48:38,300
these guys are coming in, I
recruited them from Zone systems
840
00:48:38,300 --> 00:48:41,200
that they played in high school
they more or less know
841
00:48:41,500 --> 00:48:43,200
technique-wise what they need to
do.
842
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:47,400
I need to get them from a
mentality standpoint to a level
843
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:51,500
where they can play against
Power, five players and that was
844
00:48:51,500 --> 00:48:54,600
probably how he approached it
and it sounds like Joe Rudolph
845
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:57,500
has a different perspective,
especially because we are
846
00:48:57,500 --> 00:49:02,600
bringing in more Gap schemes and
more complex blocking schemes
847
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:04,600
that that we're looking at a
front.
848
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,700
Now, you got to have technique
if you're going to do that.
849
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,600
That's tough.
Yeah, so just take me, just
850
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,200
hearing you talk about it.
It kind of makes sense that me.
851
00:49:13,300 --> 00:49:16,400
We did potentially see a
regression last year because
852
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,100
it's going out there from hey,
just go hit somebody to, Hey
853
00:49:19,100 --> 00:49:21,000
listen, you've got to do the
right steps.
854
00:49:21,500 --> 00:49:24,700
Because if we want to be the
most efficient unit, we've got
855
00:49:24,700 --> 00:49:27,300
to do the right little right
stuff, like y'all both said,
856
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:30,000
taking the right steps, putting
them hand placement, right?
857
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:34,400
And when you go from one
mentality of wide open and play
858
00:49:34,500 --> 00:49:38,400
to another mentality of
technical Robbie, put it up
859
00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:40,200
again.
Technical Focus will slow the
860
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,300
aggression at times.
It's, that's the truth and
861
00:49:42,300 --> 00:49:46,600
that's truthful.
Just Any line of work that you
862
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,200
put yourself into and even more,
so talked about moving bodies
863
00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,000
and pushing people.
All right, let's let's go here.
864
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:54,000
Next time or let you leave this
tally.
865
00:49:54,300 --> 00:49:57,000
He just we discussed in the
interview with him about how he
866
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,600
is trying to become a leader in
that room.
867
00:49:59,900 --> 00:50:03,400
That's a big step.
He's a young player, but he's a
868
00:50:03,408 --> 00:50:09,200
three-year starter now, right?
Brian was ample numerous times
869
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:12,600
last year, he was probably the
most consistent got, he wasn't
870
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:14,800
the most dominant.
The time but you didn't see him
871
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:18,300
get killed if he did.
It was just a handful of times
872
00:50:18,300 --> 00:50:21,900
during the year, you think he
can become that Alpha?
873
00:50:23,100 --> 00:50:27,600
Yeah, of course.
I mean it comes down to, it's
874
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:31,100
not all about experience but it
is a little about experience.
875
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:35,800
You know, when we go back to
talking about just knowing what
876
00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:40,000
to do in certain positions or
even, he's been there for three
877
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,100
years.
He's been, you know, a couple of
878
00:50:43,100 --> 00:50:46,700
days, DC schools a couple of
times and he knows how those
879
00:50:46,700 --> 00:50:49,900
environments are.
So he's able to pass that along
880
00:50:49,900 --> 00:50:53,800
to the other guys on the team,
and he's played a couple of
881
00:50:53,808 --> 00:50:56,900
different positions.
You know, he's, he's practice
882
00:50:56,900 --> 00:50:59,800
and moved and done a couple of
different things on the line.
883
00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:03,000
So just the fact that he's done
that.
884
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:06,000
Well, he'll help him become a
leader.
885
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,100
He seems like a smart kid to
like offensive lineman.
886
00:51:11,100 --> 00:51:13,200
I mean, I know maybe on the old
shows and stuff.
887
00:51:13,300 --> 00:51:14,700
Tough.
When they talk about somebody
888
00:51:14,700 --> 00:51:18,000
being a dumb jock, maybe have a
brute to just do.
889
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,700
I don't know what to do.
You don't see very many offense
890
00:51:20,700 --> 00:51:22,500
of lineman that just dumb.
You know.
891
00:51:22,500 --> 00:51:25,200
Like offensive linemen used are
pretty smart guys.
892
00:51:25,500 --> 00:51:31,300
So they that I think that from
talking to him and seeing him
893
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,300
play, I think he can.
I think he can take that next
894
00:51:34,300 --> 00:51:37,300
step to become that leader, but
it all comes down to, you have
895
00:51:37,300 --> 00:51:40,500
different leaders, but it all
comes down to what you do on
896
00:51:40,500 --> 00:51:45,500
that field to this.
Get you to the leadership role
897
00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:49,300
by?
Yeah, I agree there and I think
898
00:51:49,300 --> 00:51:52,000
the big thing until he pointed
to it a little bit but the big
899
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,100
thing is is that he has a
three-year starter at this
900
00:51:55,100 --> 00:51:58,700
point, so when defense or
showing a look or they're
901
00:51:58,700 --> 00:52:02,700
showing a blitz or they're
shifting, there's probably not a
902
00:52:02,700 --> 00:52:05,600
whole lot of things that they're
doing in a game that he hasn't
903
00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:09,300
seen.
So he can translate that to
904
00:52:09,300 --> 00:52:11,600
other guys that may have less
experience.
905
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:16,100
So that's the big thing for me.
Me and also again with with that
906
00:52:16,100 --> 00:52:19,900
experience comes confidence and
with confidence, come the
907
00:52:19,900 --> 00:52:24,100
ability for others to look to
you to gain confidence, right?
908
00:52:24,100 --> 00:52:26,500
So if he can step into that
role, even if it's just by
909
00:52:26,500 --> 00:52:29,300
example but if he's moving to
Center, he's going to have to
910
00:52:29,300 --> 00:52:31,100
have some of that local
leadership as well.
911
00:52:31,100 --> 00:52:33,600
So he's going to beat need to be
making the calls, she's going to
912
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:36,500
be baking the shift so there's
going to be a lot of things
913
00:52:36,500 --> 00:52:39,300
where he's going to have to be
vocal but there's going to also
914
00:52:39,300 --> 00:52:41,700
be areas where he's going to
need to lead by example as well,
915
00:52:41,700 --> 00:52:43,100
right?
Rommel for the back to you.
916
00:52:43,300 --> 00:52:46,800
Quit because when he dropped
that on us, when we were sitting
917
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,200
there he's like yeah I've been
getting ready to roll over and
918
00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:52,200
been practicing centers.
Just like dude you were an
919
00:52:52,200 --> 00:52:56,500
All-American Right Guard like
freshman All-American, Right
920
00:52:56,500 --> 00:52:58,900
Guard and they want you to go
play center.
921
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,100
I mean, let me, let me get both
y'all thoughts on that because
922
00:53:03,100 --> 00:53:07,800
it's just like, it makes me feel
better because we were worried
923
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:11,400
about Cinderella who can play.
If he can snap the ball, we know
924
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:13,000
that man can play offensive
line.
925
00:53:13,300 --> 00:53:17,100
We know that, but that's a,
that's a big step.
926
00:53:17,100 --> 00:53:23,200
But I mean we all think now goes
to the same thing as you saying,
927
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:27,300
him being a leader, you know,
your Center is your leader,
928
00:53:28,300 --> 00:53:31,200
nothing happens until the center
snaps the ball.
929
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:34,500
You know, the center is making a
lot of calls there in the middle
930
00:53:34,500 --> 00:53:38,400
so I mean if he stepping up to
be the alpha dog, to be the
931
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:41,600
leader.
I mean centers a good place to
932
00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:44,700
start it, you know.
He's getting everybody in line.
933
00:53:44,700 --> 00:53:48,300
He's been there for a while and
like you said, it just comes
934
00:53:48,300 --> 00:53:51,700
down to the exchange.
If he can snap the ball, we know
935
00:53:51,700 --> 00:53:55,200
it can play offensive line.
It just comes down to, you know,
936
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:59,200
how those snaps look last year.
Sometimes Johnny was, he was
937
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,300
skipping skipping the rock back
there, you know what I mean?
938
00:54:02,300 --> 00:54:06,000
So we got to be able to get the
ball to the quarterback.
939
00:54:07,100 --> 00:54:07,600
Yeah.
Got it.
940
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,800
Got to be able to snap the ball,
but as you said, Sally, I mean,
941
00:54:10,100 --> 00:54:13,100
by default and I've said this to
Curtis many times.
942
00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:16,300
By default your Sinners going to
have to have some sort of
943
00:54:16,308 --> 00:54:20,300
leadership role on the offensive
line, even if he's not the alpha
944
00:54:20,600 --> 00:54:22,900
he's got to have some sort of
leadership because when he barks
945
00:54:22,900 --> 00:54:27,100
you got to listen.
So that's good that he's sliding
946
00:54:27,100 --> 00:54:30,100
to that role because now he can
kind of approach it from being
947
00:54:30,100 --> 00:54:33,600
the guy and also the guy that
you're listening to from a check
948
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:38,300
and call standpoint, I think
this is good overall we had
949
00:54:38,300 --> 00:54:41,900
talked about, you know, either
him or just a handsome being
950
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:45,400
potentially the The guys that
might slide into that role since
951
00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:49,300
we didn't see any sort of
movement of getting a starting
952
00:54:49,300 --> 00:54:52,100
caliber Center in the transfer
portal at least in the first
953
00:54:52,100 --> 00:54:56,200
wave there.
So we kind of we kind of figured
954
00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,700
it was going to be one of those
two just because that gives you
955
00:54:58,700 --> 00:55:01,700
at least year your opportunity
to put your five best on the
956
00:55:01,700 --> 00:55:04,900
field.
But again, if you had to pick
957
00:55:04,900 --> 00:55:07,200
one, I think, Cadence probably
the better choice, just because
958
00:55:07,200 --> 00:55:10,300
he is the guy that I think folks
are going to look to from that
959
00:55:10,300 --> 00:55:12,700
leadership role to begin with.
So it's better to kind of have
960
00:55:12,700 --> 00:55:16,100
that As your your trigger man
there in the middle and that's
961
00:55:16,100 --> 00:55:19,100
so much about the things that we
don't see behind the scenes, who
962
00:55:19,100 --> 00:55:20,400
knows?
They might have been asking him
963
00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:24,200
to try snapping the ball during
practice last year, right?
964
00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:26,300
Like hey go take 10 reps
snapping the ball.
965
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,300
We don't get to see that.
So and we see the portal.
966
00:55:29,300 --> 00:55:31,700
Why are we taking a center while
we taken somebody that can
967
00:55:31,700 --> 00:55:33,400
really help this offense in
line?
968
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:37,300
When in reality, it might be
he's been working on it and
969
00:55:37,300 --> 00:55:39,600
we've got Johnny, we know Johnny
can play center.
970
00:55:39,900 --> 00:55:42,100
We're gonna let came focus on
guard but he's going to work.
971
00:55:42,100 --> 00:55:45,300
He's at work at snapping, he's a
Some of those techniques that we
972
00:55:45,300 --> 00:55:50,100
need to do during our practice
sessions because we heard what
973
00:55:50,100 --> 00:55:53,000
several times price say.
Hey we wouldn't let some of the
974
00:55:53,008 --> 00:55:54,900
young guys go out there and
fully scrimmage.
975
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:58,500
Who knows maybe came ordering
some of those scrimmages Kane's
976
00:55:58,500 --> 00:56:00,800
going to be Center.
He's in Black too and snap the
977
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:02,900
ball to guys.
We don't know that any things
978
00:56:02,900 --> 00:56:05,700
behind the scenes, we can't see,
right?
979
00:56:05,700 --> 00:56:07,400
But then we see things like
this.
980
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:12,300
And I mean for us like I love,
he said it to us, he wasn't
981
00:56:12,300 --> 00:56:14,400
afraid.
And that's another thing I love
982
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,700
about Brent pry.
Players aren't afraid to have
983
00:56:16,700 --> 00:56:19,600
conversations with other
individuals who had a lie?
984
00:56:20,100 --> 00:56:22,200
Yeah.
And the thing is, like, it
985
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:26,500
happens more than people see,
it's not a sexy position, the
986
00:56:26,500 --> 00:56:30,600
lion guard Center is not a sexy
position.
987
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:33,300
People don't pay attention to
it, as much as they pay
988
00:56:33,300 --> 00:56:35,600
attention to the quarterback a
wide receiver, or a running
989
00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:39,100
back, but you have a lot of
linemen that move around and
990
00:56:39,100 --> 00:56:43,100
play different positions.
I mean, of course I'm a Alabama.
991
00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:46,300
Not Alabama fan but I'm Alabama
guy.
992
00:56:46,300 --> 00:56:49,600
So I watch them battle member
football Alabama had think it
993
00:56:49,607 --> 00:56:55,300
was maybe like 2010 or 11.
Don't quote me on that.
994
00:56:55,300 --> 00:56:57,200
We can do some research and find
out for sure.
995
00:56:57,200 --> 00:57:02,400
But they had Barrett Jones I
think was the offensive lineman
996
00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:04,700
there.
He won two different Awards to
997
00:57:04,700 --> 00:57:06,700
be the best.
He was like the best tackle,
998
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,700
then the best center him.
Like the year, they won the
999
00:57:09,700 --> 00:57:12,700
championship and whatever year
it was maybe like 2012 or
1000
00:57:12,700 --> 00:57:15,800
something.
And and they usually play all
1001
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:21,000
those positions and Barrett
Jones and also he he had like a
1002
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:25,200
4.0 while doing all this.
Like I said offensive lineman
1003
00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:28,100
are very heady.
And if they are asking you to
1004
00:57:28,100 --> 00:57:30,900
play a couple of different
positions, I'm sure if we looked
1005
00:57:30,900 --> 00:57:35,200
up Caden Moore's grades, he's
probably one of the best on the
1006
00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,600
team, probably, one of the best
on the team as far as grades go
1007
00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,900
because it's not easy to be down
on the line and learn all those
1008
00:57:41,900 --> 00:57:44,400
positions.
So, all right, Do you know how
1009
00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,200
to jump off of this too?
Because I just put something on
1010
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,500
there for that.
Robbie talked about, you have it
1011
00:57:50,500 --> 00:57:51,900
all.
All of his guys practice
1012
00:57:51,900 --> 00:57:54,900
Staffing at some points of their
potentially, in an emergency
1013
00:57:54,900 --> 00:57:58,900
situation, ready to roll and
tally can speak to this as well.
1014
00:57:58,900 --> 00:58:02,500
But you know, one of the things
that we always did, you know, we
1015
00:58:02,500 --> 00:58:05,000
were expected to be at the
practice field 15 minutes before
1016
00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:09,100
the start of practice because
offensive lineman were snapping
1017
00:58:09,100 --> 00:58:12,800
the ball to any and all people,
that handle the ball.
1018
00:58:13,100 --> 00:58:14,700
From a quarterback or
perspective.
1019
00:58:14,700 --> 00:58:17,500
So you know you had guys that
you know you had your two or
1020
00:58:17,500 --> 00:58:20,500
three guys that were in the 3D
snap to the quarterback.
1021
00:58:20,500 --> 00:58:23,600
So then other guys will take
turns in that same rotation and
1022
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:27,200
work on snapping for emergency
situations because there are a
1023
00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:29,700
lot of times you know as much as
you don't want to do it.
1024
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:33,300
You know if you get a couple
guys go down you don't
1025
00:58:33,300 --> 00:58:35,200
necessarily want your
third-string Center out there.
1026
00:58:35,200 --> 00:58:38,600
You might want to, you know,
slide slide, slide of guard over
1027
00:58:38,600 --> 00:58:41,200
in there and work another.
Another car into the rotation
1028
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:45,800
from that from that too deep.
So Having guys that can snap,
1029
00:58:45,900 --> 00:58:49,300
that aren't necessarily, you
know, got the see next to their
1030
00:58:49,300 --> 00:58:53,100
name in the in the program.
That's not never a bad idea.
1031
00:58:53,100 --> 00:58:55,700
So if this is something that
he's probably worked on to some
1032
00:58:55,700 --> 00:58:59,900
degree you know before this
discussion happened at the end
1033
00:58:59,900 --> 00:59:01,900
of the season.
Absolutely.
1034
00:59:01,900 --> 00:59:03,700
Alright.
Well real quick y'all.
1035
00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:08,500
Braun Telly last time.
So you get to lead it this time
1036
00:59:08,500 --> 00:59:14,100
who's your right now, as we sit,
who's your five on the line, you
1037
00:59:14,100 --> 00:59:16,400
don't have to put where they're
going to be chaplain.
1038
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:19,400
Hanson more.
More Garrett.
1039
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:23,400
I always, I know, you can go
Johnny, don't you kick Parker?
1040
00:59:23,500 --> 00:59:26,200
He kick Parker out.
Parker made him mad last year.
1041
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:28,900
What about you Talan?
I got a I mean, I hate to just
1042
00:59:28,900 --> 00:59:32,600
say the exact same that he said,
I would probably put Clemens in
1043
00:59:32,600 --> 00:59:36,100
now seeing him on a couple of
little List this year, working
1044
00:59:36,100 --> 00:59:38,800
out in a couple of things.
So because he has some
1045
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:43,300
experience I give him a little
bit of edge over chaplain or
1046
00:59:43,500 --> 00:59:46,100
Garrett, not sure which one just
yet.
1047
00:59:46,500 --> 00:59:49,800
But I feel like they're going to
have him start in there.
1048
00:59:50,100 --> 00:59:53,200
How long he's in there?
I don't know, but I feel like
1049
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:54,400
he's gonna be in there
somewhere.
1050
00:59:54,700 --> 00:59:56,400
The more Brothers definitely
gone.
1051
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,200
I think they got some good stuff
coming for us this year.
1052
00:59:59,300 --> 01:00:02,100
Yeah, I'm with Tally, I think
clemont's right now over again
1053
01:00:02,100 --> 01:00:05,200
because of the experience and
just Those of those last few
1054
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:10,300
games, you said Prime set it on
here Clements hasn't looked as
1055
01:00:10,300 --> 01:00:13,700
bad as he did earlier in the
season, like something clicked,
1056
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:16,900
with Joe teaching technique.
So, I'm with Talia because that
1057
01:00:16,900 --> 01:00:18,900
was, that was my marked.
Praise at the end of it.
1058
01:00:18,900 --> 01:00:21,400
Was he Market?
He said, he's not standing out
1059
01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:26,500
as bad anymore and right now.
So, all right, tally, we going,
1060
01:00:26,500 --> 01:00:29,400
we're going.
So we send this video to tally
1061
01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:33,400
because he wasn't able to join
us in almost the first thing out
1062
01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:36,900
into a lie.
The text was not about the
1063
01:00:36,900 --> 01:00:40,500
center or the coaching Styles.
Go ahead tally.
1064
01:00:40,500 --> 01:00:43,100
He got a rant Holtz.
Hey what is it?
1065
01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:50,900
Who eats that shit?
I don't understand when we.
1066
01:00:50,900 --> 01:00:57,200
All right so where I work is on
like a major highway or major
1067
01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:59,800
road here.
Yeah and you can get pretty much
1068
01:00:59,800 --> 01:01:03,200
anything within 10 minutes like
go this way you get Popeyes go.
1069
01:01:03,200 --> 01:01:04,800
That way you get Donald's.
Go that way.
1070
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:06,900
You get Texas Roadhouse, go that
way.
1071
01:01:06,900 --> 01:01:10,400
You get Longhorns.
There's a Chipotle somewhere in
1072
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:12,600
that.
Nobody ever says, hey, let's go
1073
01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:14,900
get your boat.
If everybody, you know why?
1074
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:19,200
Because it's horrible, it's
horrible fate that one time in
1075
01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:24,200
my life and it came out of both
ends and I was done.
1076
01:01:24,700 --> 01:01:28,100
I want to never touch it again
but besides that it just didn't
1077
01:01:28,100 --> 01:01:31,200
taste good like it.
I don't know, man.
1078
01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,800
I want to maybe I need to give
it a try in a Another state or
1079
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,800
another place.
But I was saying I was saying
1080
01:01:40,200 --> 01:01:59,100
and I was done after
the tally ho.
1081
01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:34,800
Real quick.
Let's talk about tech pulse to
1082
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:38,600
Miami tonight. 7670 and I'm
probably more irritated.
1083
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:41,600
But anything is because that we
were sitting here before we got
1084
01:02:41,600 --> 01:02:45,800
on what I tell you, you and
Robbie going to get along today.
1085
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:51,000
All me, so we fought to Miami.
We shoot better from the field
1086
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:52,900
than them.
We shoot better from three
1087
01:02:52,900 --> 01:02:55,800
points in them.
They do get us in free throws,
1088
01:02:56,600 --> 01:03:01,200
but, you know, let's just not
just this game, they beat UVA,
1089
01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:05,300
we'd beat BC.
Or lose to BC beat Notre Dame,
1090
01:03:05,400 --> 01:03:09,200
struggle with them bad team,
lose Georgia Tech which just
1091
01:03:09,200 --> 01:03:11,700
made Callie infuriated because
he watched that game.
1092
01:03:11,900 --> 01:03:15,900
We didn't enough meat number one
team in the ACC and we hang with
1093
01:03:15,900 --> 01:03:18,300
probably the best team in the
ACC tonight.
1094
01:03:18,600 --> 01:03:20,200
Can y'all make any sense of this
team?
1095
01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:24,300
No, no, no.
It is so frustrating.
1096
01:03:24,300 --> 01:03:26,500
You know, talking with so many
people out there.
1097
01:03:26,500 --> 01:03:30,300
It's just like it's Dougie had
said it.
1098
01:03:30,300 --> 01:03:32,400
The other week, this is the best
good.
1099
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:34,300
This is the worst good team I've
ever seen.
1100
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:40,600
Yep, it makes little to no snow
and no sense Fury getting to
1101
01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:43,300
watch because, you know, we look
at it and relay.
1102
01:03:43,300 --> 01:03:47,900
All right.
Well, if this team could beat BC
1103
01:03:47,900 --> 01:03:50,200
which they should, if this team
can beat Georgia Tech course
1104
01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:54,400
they should if this team could
just win a road game here or
1105
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:58,800
there that's all you have to do
that.
1106
01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:01,600
Like those are three easy
hurdles to clear but we we have
1107
01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:04,400
not been able to clear them the
meanwhile we get you know you
1108
01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:06,000
Get a win.
I get UVA.
1109
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:07,600
You're able to pull a win at
Pitt.
1110
01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:11,000
Like what?
What's going on like, say
1111
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:15,100
Italian old many.
So yeah, you got so many games
1112
01:04:15,100 --> 01:04:18,400
and basketball that people don't
like football.
1113
01:04:18,400 --> 01:04:23,300
People pay attention to the
losses and basketball is like
1114
01:04:23,300 --> 01:04:28,500
you get a pass because you've
got 30 fucking games and if
1115
01:04:28,500 --> 01:04:30,700
you've played 30 different
teams, you're going to beat a
1116
01:04:30,700 --> 01:04:35,300
top 25 team and I have people
arguing with me Saying because I
1117
01:04:35,308 --> 01:04:39,900
don't I think Mike young is a is
a great fit for Virginia Tech
1118
01:04:40,300 --> 01:04:44,200
but at the same time it's like
whenever we lose a game, we're
1119
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:47,300
not supposed to.
I'm going to say it's his fault
1120
01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:50,900
because I'm looking at the team
and they're watching rebounds,
1121
01:04:50,900 --> 01:04:53,800
bounce right beside them or
we're throwing the ball to the
1122
01:04:53,808 --> 01:04:57,100
other team.
Like if the football team loses
1123
01:04:57,100 --> 01:05:00,800
by one point, they're going at
the coach every single time.
1124
01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:06,800
Basketball team loses and it's
like, well, they just they beat
1125
01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:09,900
us today.
I'm like, no it the effort was
1126
01:05:09,900 --> 01:05:13,800
different today than it was.
When we go against top talent,
1127
01:05:13,800 --> 01:05:17,300
we bring our top game.
When we go against
1128
01:05:17,300 --> 01:05:20,400
middle-of-the-road teams, we
come with middle-of-the-road
1129
01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:23,600
effort, you know, Miami's a good
basketball team.
1130
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:28,200
We lost by 16 points.
Yeah so not saying that that
1131
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:31,100
doesn't hurt.
Now in our Where We Are.
1132
01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:33,700
Our.
But if we had, one knows games
1133
01:05:33,700 --> 01:05:35,300
of teams, we were supposed to
be.
1134
01:05:35,600 --> 01:05:38,600
And I'm using are quotations
because every game is different.
1135
01:05:38,600 --> 01:05:41,300
But if we don't win those games,
against the Georgia Tech's, and
1136
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:46,900
the be seized, when one of their
best players gets hurt, we the
1137
01:05:47,100 --> 01:05:50,800
the Miami losses don't hurt you,
you know, going into tournament
1138
01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:55,700
play going into trying to get
into the into the tournament but
1139
01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:58,600
it's baseball season now.
Yeah, I might as well quit
1140
01:05:58,600 --> 01:06:02,800
talking basketball.
And I believe the baseball team
1141
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:05,100
did win today, which we're going
to hit on some of the next
1142
01:06:05,100 --> 01:06:07,900
upcoming weeks.
We will have Shelton on talk
1143
01:06:07,900 --> 01:06:09,400
about that we're going to be
paying attention to it.
1144
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:12,900
Obviously a couple other quick
things to talk about Hoops wise,
1145
01:06:13,100 --> 01:06:17,000
the women Shelton said it on
this program couple weeks ago.
1146
01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:19,700
This team can be in the lead 18
and I'm going to tell you.
1147
01:06:20,300 --> 01:06:22,400
I've watched a couple games here
and there.
1148
01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:26,600
There's sometimes tough to find
women for the first time at NC
1149
01:06:26,600 --> 01:06:28,600
State against a ranked Tennessee
State team.
1150
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,100
And then beating three ranked,
they've won four straight.
1151
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:35,000
Teams against top 20 ranked
teams this team like
1152
01:06:35,000 --> 01:06:39,400
legitimately if this keeps
going, there's your best shot to
1153
01:06:39,400 --> 01:06:41,500
be watching basketball in the
late.
1154
01:06:41,500 --> 01:06:44,900
March or the ladies week, Italy
and door and they went out there
1155
01:06:44,900 --> 01:06:50,800
and just Steve it to FSU and do
it wasn't, it wasn't even a
1156
01:06:50,800 --> 01:06:54,000
contest.
I mean, Duke Duke won the
1157
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:58,700
contest.
At the end of one, they had a
1158
01:06:58,700 --> 01:07:03,700
lead and it was just they kept.
Had it, you know, Duke got a few
1159
01:07:03,900 --> 01:07:07,300
few garbage, time things in the
fourth quarter, to make it look
1160
01:07:07,300 --> 01:07:09,500
a little closer than was but
that won the game for three
1161
01:07:09,500 --> 01:07:13,700
quarters.
Yeah, can you brought in some
1162
01:07:13,700 --> 01:07:17,400
good heat, but he brought in
some good transfers, you know,
1163
01:07:17,400 --> 01:07:21,700
this past year as well and some
of the, some of the young ladies
1164
01:07:21,700 --> 01:07:25,400
that he brought in were high
contributors on the teams that
1165
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:28,700
they came from.
It was power, 5 experience as
1166
01:07:28,700 --> 01:07:31,600
well.
And basketball is a little bit
1167
01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:34,000
different.
So I don't 100% pay attention to
1168
01:07:34,500 --> 01:07:37,000
where people come from to where
they're going.
1169
01:07:37,400 --> 01:07:40,900
Because it takes one, man to be
a, have a good basketball teams.
1170
01:07:40,900 --> 01:07:43,100
True.
You like, you can recruit one
1171
01:07:43,100 --> 01:07:45,500
player and he can play
basketball better than everybody
1172
01:07:45,500 --> 01:07:49,000
else on the court and he can
beat the other team by himself.
1173
01:07:49,500 --> 01:07:52,400
I mean, it's a team sport, but
if LeBron plays
1174
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:57,000
eighteen-year-old, LeBron goes
to the Hokies right now.
1175
01:07:57,600 --> 01:08:00,000
How many, how many times did
that team lose?
1176
01:08:00,500 --> 01:08:04,200
Not many very few, very few, not
many two or three.
1177
01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,300
We probably lost the, we
probably lose the BC because we
1178
01:08:07,300 --> 01:08:12,900
can't be sleeping.
Takes one or two things like, in
1179
01:08:12,900 --> 01:08:16,399
basketball is much different
than any other sport because
1180
01:08:16,399 --> 01:08:20,500
it's so individualized.
But back to the Women's
1181
01:08:20,500 --> 01:08:23,600
Basketball team, they already
had a couple of good players
1182
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:28,200
like from last year.
He'll enjoy Grand getting the
1183
01:08:28,200 --> 01:08:32,300
kidney is awesome and then they
bring in those transfers just to
1184
01:08:32,300 --> 01:08:35,800
give that team dipped and they
look good man.
1185
01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:38,300
It looks it.
Like you said, it looks like our
1186
01:08:38,300 --> 01:08:40,700
best shot to watch so many for
basketball.
1187
01:08:42,100 --> 01:08:44,899
Late in the March, so I'll be
excited to see.
1188
01:08:44,899 --> 01:08:46,700
I mean, I'm going, I'm going to
be cheering.
1189
01:08:46,700 --> 01:08:51,000
Like, hell, did they go deep
into the into the tournament?
1190
01:08:51,399 --> 01:08:53,300
Hopefully, we don't get a
matchup in the first round like
1191
01:08:53,300 --> 01:08:56,800
we had last year somebody team
shooting 60% from three.
1192
01:08:56,899 --> 01:09:00,300
Yeah, well you listen there,
there ain't there is only a
1193
01:09:00,300 --> 01:09:03,700
handful of teams that can handle
that barrage keeps you 60
1194
01:09:03,700 --> 01:09:06,000
percent from three?
Just about every team in the
1195
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:08,300
country is losing one last
piece.
1196
01:09:08,300 --> 01:09:12,800
Not who but wrestling.
Since we've last been on here,
1197
01:09:12,899 --> 01:09:16,800
crushing you trusting UNC
crushing UVA getting the co
1198
01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:20,000
regular season Champions.
So hanging another Banner the
1199
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:25,200
ACC Championship is in a couple
weeks and as much as to me like
1200
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:30,000
similar to basketball, like the
rustling, oh it's an ACC
1201
01:09:30,000 --> 01:09:31,100
Championship.
This is being.
1202
01:09:31,100 --> 01:09:35,800
It's like yeah but we're really
like it's almost like when we
1203
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,800
are really good team like okay
we're a really good team.
1204
01:09:39,899 --> 01:09:43,600
What is this even matter?
Like there's a five or six seven
1205
01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:46,899
guys that are going to go to the
Nationals, there's a bigger goal
1206
01:09:46,899 --> 01:09:50,800
in mind for this much, right?
Because didn't makka got hurt
1207
01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,000
last year in the ACC tournament,
right?
1208
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:54,800
Yeah.
He got hurt.
1209
01:09:54,900 --> 01:09:57,500
You know, Screw his change win a
National Title.
1210
01:09:57,500 --> 01:10:01,600
So I think it's awesome.
That the team is that good.
1211
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:05,700
It's one of those interesting
Sports to watch on TV and you
1212
01:10:05,700 --> 01:10:07,700
know people saying watching it
live.
1213
01:10:07,700 --> 01:10:10,100
You get that hype.
When you know The match is going
1214
01:10:10,100 --> 01:10:14,800
on so I'm going to obviously
will pay attention to who goes
1215
01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:19,000
to Nationals talk about that.
I may attempt to get my buddy
1216
01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:22,900
David on here to talk with us 10
minutes, we might have to do a
1217
01:10:22,907 --> 01:10:26,500
little recording session.
He is a CPA, not the best time
1218
01:10:26,500 --> 01:10:31,900
of year to ask that maintenance,
so tax season.
1219
01:10:32,100 --> 01:10:35,300
Yeah.
So the wrestling the head
1220
01:10:35,300 --> 01:10:37,600
wrestling coach got paid didn't?
Yes, he did.
1221
01:10:37,900 --> 01:10:43,300
He got hit.
He got dibs on him at PK, get on
1222
01:10:43,300 --> 01:10:44,400
him.
Yeah.
1223
01:10:44,700 --> 01:10:48,400
Hey you cheated wings and beers
on Tony Rhodey.
1224
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:52,900
Yeah, always be on Tony.
And, but Hey, listen your top
1225
01:10:52,900 --> 01:10:55,000
ten program, guys went to
Nationals.
1226
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:56,800
They want guys to go to it
Olympics.
1227
01:10:57,100 --> 01:11:01,100
You know what pay him because
that's becoming a spectator
1228
01:11:01,100 --> 01:11:03,500
sport.
People are paying money to go
1229
01:11:03,500 --> 01:11:06,400
watch those things.
It's making, it's probably one
1230
01:11:06,400 --> 01:11:09,100
of the sports that's close to
paying for itself.
1231
01:11:09,200 --> 01:11:12,800
The year because getting TV
revenues from going to National
1232
01:11:12,800 --> 01:11:17,800
Title, plus putting, you know,
for 5,000 people in Castle like
1233
01:11:17,900 --> 01:11:20,400
paying their, they're doing a
good job with fundraising to.
1234
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:24,000
So yes, they are combined that.
I mean, they're they're breaking
1235
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:28,000
even probably or pretty darn
close to home right now.
1236
01:11:28,100 --> 01:11:35,200
And once you have a non revenues
Fort breaking even all the money
1237
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:37,600
that usually said to them stays
with the football program.
1238
01:11:38,500 --> 01:11:40,600
In an extra, you know, two
three, four hundred thousand
1239
01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:45,300
dollars, you can pay analysts
you know, can pump the coaches,
1240
01:11:45,300 --> 01:11:47,500
salaries up a little bit, I hear
ya.
1241
01:11:48,400 --> 01:11:52,100
All right, so before we going to
be flipping back to football and
1242
01:11:52,100 --> 01:11:55,100
get into some more topics
tonight, but before that we are
1243
01:11:55,100 --> 01:11:58,100
going to take a quick pause for
a message from our digital

1252
01:12:19,500 --> 01:12:24,600
Now back to the episode.
I so back to football talk and
1253
01:12:24,600 --> 01:12:28,400
we're going to finally put a cap
on the 24 class in a few weeks,
1254
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:33,100
we're going to bring mattei from
247 Sports to wrap it up in full
1255
01:12:33,300 --> 01:12:37,100
and talk about the 24 class.
But there was one more guy that
1256
01:12:37,100 --> 01:12:40,700
committed.
On Signing Day, the traditional
1257
01:12:40,700 --> 01:12:43,500
sign and day and that was James
jannetty.
1258
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:50,100
Six-foot-five 225-pound Edge.
Originally from Durham, North
1259
01:12:50,100 --> 01:12:51,600
Carolina.
Actually I think you played at
1260
01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:55,200
Northside, I'll have to confirm
that bridge.
1261
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:59,100
Ali went to William and Mary
then transfer to a Juco and now
1262
01:12:59,100 --> 01:13:02,700
he's with the Hokies.
Pretty, highly regarded Yuko as
1263
01:13:02,700 --> 01:13:06,100
well.
A top ten National four-star.
1264
01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:12,000
The top Edge in Juco, y'all
decide.
1265
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:14,100
Amongst yourself who's talking
first about this young, man?
1266
01:13:14,900 --> 01:13:20,300
Well, I mean again, like looking
at, I'm not a coach, I'm not a
1267
01:13:20,300 --> 01:13:23,900
recruiter, I'm a fan.
So when I look at stuff, I look
1268
01:13:23,900 --> 01:13:28,500
at a couple things and one thing
we lacked for a long time is
1269
01:13:28,500 --> 01:13:35,400
freaking size.
I got so tired of recruiting 511
1270
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:39,200
defensive ends, you know?
Like, come on man.
1271
01:13:40,500 --> 01:13:45,700
Seeing somebody, that's 65
seeing somebody that's 64 66 on
1272
01:13:45,700 --> 01:13:49,000
the line, makes me feel good.
I don't know how good he's going
1273
01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:53,200
to be, you know, everybody had
their opinions about what they
1274
01:13:53,200 --> 01:13:56,100
thought about it.
Oh you don't have a ranking.
1275
01:13:56,100 --> 01:13:58,700
Oh he's he doesn't have this and
then boom.
1276
01:13:58,700 --> 01:14:00,700
They said we we think he's a
four-star dinner.
1277
01:14:00,900 --> 01:14:03,100
Buddy goes whoa well how did we
get him?
1278
01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:05,500
Probably got to do with his
size.
1279
01:14:05,500 --> 01:14:06,900
He's bigger than everybody's
playing.
1280
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:10,700
Probably a little bit faster
than them so maybe he can come
1281
01:14:10,700 --> 01:14:14,000
over here and turn up.
So again, I like to do
1282
01:14:14,000 --> 01:14:19,600
comparisons when you're talking
players not same player, not
1283
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:26,900
same body, but kind of the same
body of work as came, right in
1284
01:14:26,900 --> 01:14:30,800
my head and then left what we
got in from Juco, didn't he?
1285
01:14:30,900 --> 01:14:32,700
Just got drafted to the
Panthers.
1286
01:14:32,700 --> 01:14:35,500
Oh I'm sorry.
Barney Barney.
1287
01:14:35,800 --> 01:14:38,900
Yeah, st.
I feel like it could be a bar.
1288
01:14:38,900 --> 01:14:41,800
No Type move, you know.
Get in the weight room get
1289
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:45,000
stronger.
Stepping in learn how to play
1290
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:48,200
the position.
Sky's the limit.
1291
01:14:48,400 --> 01:14:52,500
Yep, I was looking at him.
I feel like he's about 15 pounds
1292
01:14:52,500 --> 01:14:54,900
away from being kind of what you
want him to be.
1293
01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:58,400
I think he's got some good
tools.
1294
01:14:58,400 --> 01:15:01,400
And as you said, he's got the
he's got the size of the length
1295
01:15:01,400 --> 01:15:05,500
that you like a defensive end to
play with an edge to play with,
1296
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:09,900
you know, looking at the tape,
you know, there are some things
1297
01:15:09,900 --> 01:15:12,900
that look really good.
There's some things that you can
1298
01:15:12,900 --> 01:15:17,400
work on I think, particularly
about the A gate.
1299
01:15:17,400 --> 01:15:20,500
He uses his hands.
Well I think he still needs
1300
01:15:20,500 --> 01:15:23,400
probably work on some extra
moves there, something to kind
1301
01:15:23,400 --> 01:15:25,800
of kind of counter here and
there.
1302
01:15:26,300 --> 01:15:30,100
But when we look at the size
that's impressive.
1303
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:33,600
And if like I said, if he can
get another 10 or 15 pounds on
1304
01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:37,900
him, I think we might be working
with something there and he's
1305
01:15:37,900 --> 01:15:42,700
got a few years left as well
because he came in in 2020 gun
1306
01:15:42,700 --> 01:15:44,800
at William &.
Mary, if you remember FCS
1307
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,800
canceled their season, they
played the spring season.
1308
01:15:47,000 --> 01:15:50,300
The so technically he's probably
going to fall into getting three
1309
01:15:50,300 --> 01:15:52,900
more years of Eligibility.
So if we're not talking about
1310
01:15:52,900 --> 01:15:56,200
bringing him, you know, day one
to play.
1311
01:15:56,700 --> 01:16:00,700
Like I said, put the weight on
this year, which, you know, not
1312
01:16:00,700 --> 01:16:04,300
Northern Durham Robbie.
He went to Jordan down in Durham
1313
01:16:04,500 --> 01:16:11,600
it's a thing but you know, it's
putting the weight on its that
1314
01:16:11,700 --> 01:16:14,900
and you know, Carrie become
aparna, there's a reason.
1315
01:16:15,800 --> 01:16:17,900
He went to an FCS school and
some people like, oh, why don't
1316
01:16:17,900 --> 01:16:23,400
we want an FCS player?
Well, some of those guys grow so
1317
01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:27,200
those guys show out.
But if he went to an FCS school
1318
01:16:27,300 --> 01:16:30,700
and especially a William and
Mary, he's probably a smart kid,
1319
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:33,100
play football.
Somebody probably told him down
1320
01:16:33,100 --> 01:16:37,000
there.
Hey dude, this is FCS in this
1321
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:39,200
school is very slow to get you
in your position.
1322
01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:42,400
You need to go out to a Juke own
place somewhere because you get
1323
01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:45,400
your tape with your size.
You're going to get a P5.
1324
01:16:45,500 --> 01:16:51,200
Offer in clearly that happened
so hopefully that can turn into
1325
01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:54,400
something.
Let me get y'all feelings on
1326
01:16:54,400 --> 01:16:59,400
this reported just a couple
weeks ago, Jalen Jones has left
1327
01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:02,000
the wide receiver room.
So now we're at 13 wide
1328
01:17:02,000 --> 01:17:08,500
receivers not 14 and he's moved
over to safety and he's already,
1329
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:11,400
you know, got one of those hokey
War Year Awards.
1330
01:17:12,700 --> 01:17:15,900
What y'all think.
I mean obviously this staff
1331
01:17:15,900 --> 01:17:19,600
ain't afraid to tell somebody.
Hey listen, go to that side of
1332
01:17:19,608 --> 01:17:24,600
the ball.
You play well, I mean, without
1333
01:17:24,600 --> 01:17:30,900
the Virgin too much you know no
one what we know here that y
1334
01:17:30,900 --> 01:17:35,900
receiver room is competitive.
Mmm, and and you've got you
1335
01:17:35,900 --> 01:17:41,800
brought in some guys that are
going to play and you may have
1336
01:17:41,800 --> 01:17:44,500
some People in there that said
hey what do I have to do?
1337
01:17:44,500 --> 01:17:48,700
Coach to get on the field, there
are some conversations like that
1338
01:17:48,700 --> 01:17:52,200
and it may have been one of
those conversations were Jalen.
1339
01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:55,000
Jones may have been saying, hey
I want to get on the field.
1340
01:17:55,400 --> 01:17:57,000
What do I have to do to get on
the field?
1341
01:17:57,000 --> 01:18:00,700
And they said, well, let's take
a look at this and it looks like
1342
01:18:00,700 --> 01:18:02,400
he's working hard.
It looks like you said, he's
1343
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:06,800
already got one of those Awards.
He may be ready to make an
1344
01:18:06,800 --> 01:18:12,000
impact somewhere else besides
the wide receiver room.
1345
01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:15,800
You know, maybe special teams,
it may be him stepping into a
1346
01:18:15,808 --> 01:18:20,700
role similar to Divine Diablo.
Did you know, again other player
1347
01:18:20,700 --> 01:18:25,800
comparison, he may have moved to
that side of the ball and and he
1348
01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:29,800
might flourish there.
So what up what I do like about
1349
01:18:29,800 --> 01:18:32,600
it is that the coaches aren't
giving up on kids, okay?
1350
01:18:32,600 --> 01:18:35,700
You're not good enough.
Just go you know some some kids
1351
01:18:35,700 --> 01:18:38,900
aren't some kids aren't a good
fit for a school but this is a
1352
01:18:38,907 --> 01:18:41,900
Virginia kid that apparently
wants to be there.
1353
01:18:44,500 --> 01:18:48,500
He's made the transition to
defense from offense after a
1354
01:18:48,508 --> 01:18:51,900
couple of years and he looks
like he's working hard to do
1355
01:18:51,900 --> 01:18:54,100
what he has to do to help the
team win.
1356
01:18:54,900 --> 01:18:59,300
I'm hoping that culture
continues throughout all of the
1357
01:18:59,300 --> 01:19:04,200
rooms and we see more and more
kids continuing to work to get
1358
01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:05,700
us.
What we need to be when some
1359
01:19:05,700 --> 01:19:11,700
names and is there Ryan.
My big thing is that I love this
1360
01:19:11,700 --> 01:19:16,600
because it's an opportunity for
a God that is obviously put out
1361
01:19:16,600 --> 01:19:20,700
a lot of effort that hadn't
quite been able to crack into.
1362
01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:25,100
It was right at the back.
Edge of the too deep last year,
1363
01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:28,000
obviously, with some of the guys
that were brought in, in the
1364
01:19:28,000 --> 01:19:32,800
offseason transfer portal.
Probably they are or lower
1365
01:19:32,900 --> 01:19:37,700
heading into this year, but he
didn't say.
1366
01:19:37,700 --> 01:19:40,400
All right.
Well, I'm falling down the depth
1367
01:19:40,400 --> 01:19:41,800
chart.
See you later.
1368
01:19:41,800 --> 01:19:44,100
I'm going to go do something
else conversations.
1369
01:19:44,200 --> 01:19:46,900
Had with coach and he decided.
All right, let's, let's switch
1370
01:19:46,900 --> 01:19:49,000
sides.
Let's see if I can be an asset.
1371
01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:51,700
And one of the things we had
talked about earlier and I've
1372
01:19:51,700 --> 01:19:53,700
set it on here before and I'll
say it again.
1373
01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:59,600
I always liked the way, Jalen
Jones ran with the football.
1374
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:04,500
After the catch here, an angry,
he ran like Anquan Boldin did
1375
01:20:05,100 --> 01:20:07,200
when he had the ball.
He ran like, somebody that
1376
01:20:07,600 --> 01:20:11,000
immediately turned into an
oversized running back.
1377
01:20:11,000 --> 01:20:14,800
As soon as he got the ball in
his hand and if he can That kind
1378
01:20:14,800 --> 01:20:17,900
of toughness and that kind of
mentality on the defensive side
1379
01:20:18,500 --> 01:20:20,100
only.
That's a quick transition for
1380
01:20:20,100 --> 01:20:24,700
him, where he may be able to be
a contributor by the end of this
1381
01:20:24,700 --> 01:20:28,000
year and may be able to kind of
work into the rotation at some
1382
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:30,900
point next year.
And and, you know, as you said,
1383
01:20:30,900 --> 01:20:34,100
Talley may be looking to get on
the field.
1384
01:20:34,100 --> 01:20:37,800
I, divide Diablo did by making
the switch from wide receiver
1385
01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:42,300
over to to safety.
So I'm happy for the man and I
1386
01:20:42,300 --> 01:20:46,000
hope him he steps up.
Up and that safety is a good fit
1387
01:20:46,000 --> 01:20:48,400
for him.
Yeah, couple big things about
1388
01:20:48,400 --> 01:20:52,100
Jaden just to know out there
Hokie Nation, he had not taken a
1389
01:20:52,100 --> 01:20:55,400
red shirt yet, he had not taken
a wrestler, he played in 10
1390
01:20:55,400 --> 01:20:59,800
games in 21, he played in 10
games last year, so if we're
1391
01:20:59,800 --> 01:21:03,400
talking about him transitioning,
if he does need that year, you
1392
01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:06,600
got that red shirt year, right?
Hey, learn to position this
1393
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:08,400
year.
Let's get ready to get you on
1394
01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:11,100
the field next year.
So it's not like we're in a time
1395
01:21:11,100 --> 01:21:13,400
crunch with him.
If it was one of those things
1396
01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:16,000
where I'm like, listen, We've
already redshirted him.
1397
01:21:16,000 --> 01:21:18,500
He's a redshirt junior.
He got to play this year.
1398
01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:23,300
We have that ability to say like
I think what you said Bryan's
1399
01:21:23,300 --> 01:21:25,900
perfect.
See how he you know, training
1400
01:21:26,200 --> 01:21:28,100
progresses.
It may be at the end of the
1401
01:21:28,100 --> 01:21:30,000
season.
Hey let's get you on the field
1402
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:34,300
and get you in game action for
it, which will be great and just
1403
01:21:34,300 --> 01:21:36,300
best of luck for him.
He is an RV a kid.
1404
01:21:36,300 --> 01:21:41,500
He played down and TJ under
coach Adam so you know it's good
1405
01:21:41,500 --> 01:21:45,600
to see they're doing the boys in
eight like this.
1406
01:21:47,100 --> 01:21:52,100
So now Last piece even though
we're going to have to keep it
1407
01:21:52,100 --> 01:21:55,200
up on our rundown tally.
When we show tally to run down,
1408
01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:58,700
we talk about transfer portal.
We keep transfer portal
1409
01:21:58,700 --> 01:22:00,900
highlighting because it's an
ever-growing list.
1410
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:05,600
This one we had to put on here
even though he's not taking up a
1411
01:22:05,608 --> 01:22:08,900
scholarship and he's going to be
a preferred walk-on offer and
1412
01:22:08,900 --> 01:22:15,100
that stone Schneider kid coming
out of via my multiple time
1413
01:22:15,100 --> 01:22:19,900
All-American down at the FCS
level last year or Last two
1414
01:22:19,900 --> 01:22:23,300
years of kind of looked like
this stat line was 20 2120
1415
01:22:24,700 --> 01:22:29,100
tackles 11, tackles for loss for
sacks.
1416
01:22:29,400 --> 01:22:33,100
Three fumble, recoveries last
year, hundred seven, tackles
1417
01:22:33,100 --> 01:22:36,900
three tackles for loss, only a
half sacks of not the explosion.
1418
01:22:37,300 --> 01:22:42,200
But clearly a man who played at
that level, and excelled is
1419
01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:46,000
coming here to one of the more
solid rooms, Brian.
1420
01:22:46,100 --> 01:22:48,400
I don't know.
I know you were going to try to
1421
01:22:48,400 --> 01:22:49,900
look at the tape for We jumped
on.
1422
01:22:49,900 --> 01:22:52,100
Did you get a chance to look at
the stone Snyder's?
1423
01:22:52,100 --> 01:22:56,900
Take before we have fun tonight.
Yeah, so looking at the tape, I
1424
01:22:56,900 --> 01:23:00,700
tell you the thing I like is
that this guy is really good at
1425
01:23:00,700 --> 01:23:03,800
getting off of Blocks, he's a
shattered.
1426
01:23:04,100 --> 01:23:09,500
Oh he's also a guy that is a
sure tackler.
1427
01:23:10,100 --> 01:23:12,800
Probably the biggest thing he
needs to work on is he needs to
1428
01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:16,400
work on his his speed.
We've heard that from a Mike
1429
01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:20,600
linebacker at Virginia Tech.
So, We understand that
1430
01:23:20,600 --> 01:23:23,900
limitation, especially when it
comes to areas of coverage.
1431
01:23:23,900 --> 01:23:27,400
But in terms of just being kind
of a mic, go sideline to
1432
01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:32,800
sideline a little bit can make
plays in space and can can get
1433
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:36,300
off of blocks and be able to
make tackles that aren't getting
1434
01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:40,100
getting somebody dragged 345
yards down the field.
1435
01:23:40,300 --> 01:23:43,500
It's a guy that can do it now
whether you can translate that
1436
01:23:43,500 --> 01:23:48,000
up to the power 5 level that's
that's that remains to be seen
1437
01:23:48,000 --> 01:23:52,000
but just Based on his technique
and what he can do from an
1438
01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:57,900
athletic standpoint.
I think he's a good player that
1439
01:23:57,900 --> 01:24:01,700
you could potentially look at as
a potential starter in games
1440
01:24:01,700 --> 01:24:03,800
where you have a run-heavy
matchup.
1441
01:24:04,100 --> 01:24:07,800
I don't think he's a guy that
would contribute a lot for any
1442
01:24:07,800 --> 01:24:12,300
sort of true spread, or a heavy
passing attack, but if you got a
1443
01:24:12,300 --> 01:24:15,000
team that's going to ground and
pound, he could, he could be an
1444
01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:20,700
asset.
Pittsburgh, what size is he,
1445
01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:26,900
what's the size 63 240 pounds.
So he got some beat, he's 63 240
1446
01:24:26,900 --> 01:24:30,900
with a name, like Stone.
He better be ready to punch.
1447
01:24:33,100 --> 01:24:38,000
I seen one highlight and he had
a bionic arm or something.
1448
01:24:38,800 --> 01:24:41,400
I don't know what was going on,
but he had a thing on his arm
1449
01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:45,300
like Batista had.
I would like, probably tough.
1450
01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,900
White linebacker, middle of wood
with a name Stone.
1451
01:24:50,900 --> 01:24:53,500
He probably can hit all.
I need to see his nose.
1452
01:24:53,500 --> 01:24:56,200
Get bloody one time.
Fan favorite.
1453
01:24:56,400 --> 01:25:00,000
We got Dax back.
Let's go to actually point of
1454
01:25:00,200 --> 01:25:01,600
dag to point up.
Now.
1455
01:25:01,800 --> 01:25:03,100
There you go.
Put him in that.
1456
01:25:03,100 --> 01:25:06,200
Tell him to go get, go hit.
Hey don't need a cover.
1457
01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:09,700
If nothing else it shows up the
depth in that room.
1458
01:25:10,300 --> 01:25:13,200
Completely you.
Now yet Tisdale you got lost in
1459
01:25:13,200 --> 01:25:16,400
you got Keller, you get the
outside guys who can Play you
1460
01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:19,900
got a really good too.
Deep are, he's an RV, a kid.
1461
01:25:19,900 --> 01:25:25,200
He played down in Monacan which
is I believe, I think Monica and
1462
01:25:25,200 --> 01:25:28,500
is still got a form of hokey as
a head coach down there.
1463
01:25:28,500 --> 01:25:31,800
So again, it's things like this
in recruiting world, right?
1464
01:25:31,900 --> 01:25:35,000
Hey, hey, you know, we would
have taken Stone here four years
1465
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:39,200
ago.
If we had been here but you go
1466
01:25:39,200 --> 01:25:41,700
back and it gets those in robes
and things like that.
1467
01:25:41,700 --> 01:25:45,500
So I mean I feel good.
You have 100 tackles at any
1468
01:25:45,500 --> 01:25:49,200
level of football, you obviously
kind of know what you're doing
1469
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:56,800
just because but again it's
yours up a room and now I don't
1470
01:25:56,800 --> 01:25:58,300
think we're worried about
linebackers.
1471
01:25:58,300 --> 01:26:02,400
We got the depth there in.
You know, somebody's got to go
1472
01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:04,200
from that room.
That's younger than they got to
1473
01:26:04,200 --> 01:26:05,800
go.
All right.
1474
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:11,700
So Boys over the last six weeks,
we have been seeing a lot of
1475
01:26:13,000 --> 01:26:15,600
social media presence for my
coaches out there.
1476
01:26:15,600 --> 01:26:18,300
Talking about the winter
workouts, putting the tough
1477
01:26:18,300 --> 01:26:20,600
athletes up.
Putting the Hokie Warriors up.
1478
01:26:22,100 --> 01:26:24,100
Y'all ankle sit here and name
them all.
1479
01:26:24,800 --> 01:26:28,300
Because if I did it would take a
little while but you all seen it
1480
01:26:28,600 --> 01:26:30,800
and if you're a hockey fan and
you haven't seen it.
1481
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:34,000
Go look at all the coaches page.
They're sharing these every
1482
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:35,400
week.
They're retweeting each other.
1483
01:26:35,400 --> 01:26:39,800
They're pushing these guys and
pumping their guys up and we
1484
01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:43,300
cooked we look at it today
because I'm a nerd, not make the
1485
01:26:43,300 --> 01:26:47,100
list and I made the big long
list and we sat here this
1486
01:26:47,100 --> 01:26:52,700
morning kind of talked about it
and Is something I can't
1487
01:26:52,700 --> 01:26:55,200
remember if it was Taylor, you
Braun just, that's the way my
1488
01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:59,000
brain works.
We talked about cream rising to
1489
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:03,700
the top of this list, because
just about every player on this
1490
01:27:03,700 --> 01:27:07,100
list.
Play, either a significant role
1491
01:27:07,100 --> 01:27:12,000
last year on this team or was
one of the prize transfer
1492
01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:15,100
recruits.
Yeah.
1493
01:27:15,100 --> 01:27:17,400
When we look at it, you know,
you got guys, like, you know,
1494
01:27:17,400 --> 01:27:22,900
Gallows on here, three times.
Hope you wore your Got you know
1495
01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:27,300
Kelly lost and you got Mario
Kendricks, you got my sword,
1496
01:27:27,300 --> 01:27:33,700
delaying, you got Josh fuga.
These are guys that have had a
1497
01:27:33,700 --> 01:27:37,600
presence for this team last
year, Jalen strowman on here two
1498
01:27:37,600 --> 01:27:39,800
times.
So I mean these are these are
1499
01:27:39,800 --> 01:27:43,700
Big Time Players that played key
roles for us last year.
1500
01:27:44,200 --> 01:27:47,600
Good to see them competing in
the offseason.
1501
01:27:48,000 --> 01:27:51,900
And you know, we look at At the
cream Rises to the top.
1502
01:27:51,900 --> 01:27:55,900
Also let's talk a little bit
about the couple guys that can
1503
01:27:55,900 --> 01:27:57,700
transfer it in that are on this
list.
1504
01:27:57,700 --> 01:28:03,500
You got canteen on here, you got
drones on here you got Jalen
1505
01:28:03,500 --> 01:28:08,100
Lane on here.
These this is this is good
1506
01:28:08,100 --> 01:28:10,300
because it shows you that these
guys are coming in and
1507
01:28:10,300 --> 01:28:15,500
immediately competing and buying
into the culture that coach
1508
01:28:15,500 --> 01:28:18,200
pride and the rest of the staff
is set for this team.
1509
01:28:20,200 --> 01:28:23,200
Definitely, definitely.
Now one of the names that I seen
1510
01:28:24,300 --> 01:28:29,600
that I didn't see earlier
actually was McRae CJ McRae.
1511
01:28:29,600 --> 01:28:32,100
He's on there, right?
Yeah.
1512
01:28:32,100 --> 01:28:35,300
McRae was got a tough athlete
award.
1513
01:28:35,300 --> 01:28:37,600
Have you after Warrior award but
got the tough athlete Award,
1514
01:28:37,600 --> 01:28:40,600
right?
But the McRae during the season.
1515
01:28:41,700 --> 01:28:44,800
If you watch some of the earlier
games, he jumped off of the
1516
01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:47,700
screen man, like I don't know
what happened later in the
1517
01:28:47,708 --> 01:28:50,000
season.
I don't know if he had Resort or
1518
01:28:50,000 --> 01:28:54,700
what but watching him early in
the season, it was like thank
1519
01:28:54,700 --> 01:28:56,400
you is number 56.
Only.
1520
01:28:56,500 --> 01:29:00,100
Yeah, we need more of him, you
know, like that, that looks
1521
01:29:00,100 --> 01:29:02,800
good.
So, I'll be interested to see
1522
01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:06,600
kind of, you know what, what
he's able to do.
1523
01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:10,300
And all of these guys, you know,
like you said, a lot of the
1524
01:29:10,300 --> 01:29:17,400
contributors that we expect to
be big players for us we've seen
1525
01:29:17,400 --> 01:29:20,900
on there.
Now, pivoting, just a little bit
1526
01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:25,700
of course, because I'm a
Virginia Tech fan.
1527
01:29:26,200 --> 01:29:29,400
I always get a little nervous of
the people.
1528
01:29:29,400 --> 01:29:33,600
You don't see, you know what's
going on with what this guy?
1529
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:38,400
Why haven't we seen anything
from him when we talk about ali
1530
01:29:38,400 --> 01:29:40,900
Jennings?
You know, you talk about ali
1531
01:29:40,900 --> 01:29:45,500
Jennings and, and US knowing
he's going to be a leader in
1532
01:29:45,500 --> 01:29:49,600
that wide receiver room, you
know, constantly looking for
1533
01:29:49,600 --> 01:29:52,800
him, you know, constantly
looking for him to win
1534
01:29:52,800 --> 01:29:56,900
something.
Talk about Dorian strong.
1535
01:29:57,200 --> 01:29:59,400
Yeah.
What are we going to see from
1536
01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:00,400
him?
This year?
1537
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:04,400
You haven't seen them on a lot
of different lists like that but
1538
01:30:04,400 --> 01:30:06,300
I know it's some injuries and
things like that that we're
1539
01:30:06,300 --> 01:30:09,300
waiting overcome.
So that's one of the stuff that
1540
01:30:09,300 --> 01:30:11,000
I've been kind of paying
attention to this off.
1541
01:30:11,000 --> 01:30:14,200
Season.
One thing I am, glad about is
1542
01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:19,000
that last season it was so many
unknowns.
1543
01:30:19,000 --> 01:30:22,500
I didn't know if you go back and
look at any of my Twitter page
1544
01:30:23,600 --> 01:30:24,800
time.
Online and stuff.
1545
01:30:25,100 --> 01:30:28,000
When people talked about what we
would do going to the season I
1546
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:30,200
was like yeah.
Not too excited.
1547
01:30:30,200 --> 01:30:33,500
I don't, it's going to be tough
to get to a ball game and people
1548
01:30:33,500 --> 01:30:35,600
would like you're crazy.
Look at this schedule.
1549
01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:39,000
I'm like we are the schedule.
It was looking at us.
1550
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:43,100
I don't want to look at who we
play what on killed him.
1551
01:30:43,500 --> 01:30:47,100
So a lot of these players I know
him.
1552
01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:52,900
You know we don't have will
Gustav Abyss playing wide
1553
01:30:52,900 --> 01:30:56,600
receiver this year.
Thank the Lord stuff like that.
1554
01:30:58,200 --> 01:31:01,900
Yeah, and to your point Talia,
there are there are some names
1555
01:31:01,900 --> 01:31:04,300
that have been missing and we
don't know if it's injury or
1556
01:31:04,400 --> 01:31:09,200
just they're not there and that,
that that does creep to worry in
1557
01:31:09,200 --> 01:31:12,100
the back of your mind.
Because for me, you mention Ali
1558
01:31:12,100 --> 01:31:15,900
and Dorian me.
Not seen Alan Tisdale worries me
1559
01:31:16,200 --> 01:31:20,600
because he is the he is the
oldest guy in that linebacker
1560
01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:22,200
room.
He's played the money.
1561
01:31:22,200 --> 01:31:25,100
Yeah, he's played the most Bar,
None.
1562
01:31:25,100 --> 01:31:29,300
I mean, go back to 2019 when he
Down to Miami game when he's
1563
01:31:29,300 --> 01:31:33,200
puking all over the field
playing his guts out and last
1564
01:31:33,200 --> 01:31:37,300
year came back look great.
You know after the suspension in
1565
01:31:37,300 --> 01:31:41,500
that worries me but then I look
at this list to and are y'all
1566
01:31:41,500 --> 01:31:47,000
worried about not seeing some of
the younger guys like because
1567
01:31:47,000 --> 01:31:50,600
there's not a lot of them
there's you know talk about the
1568
01:31:50,600 --> 01:31:53,600
class of 22.
It's other than Bryce.
1569
01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:56,300
Do you guys think nice into big
ones?
1570
01:31:56,300 --> 01:31:58,400
That I like I see two big ones.
So many.
1571
01:31:59,400 --> 01:32:08,600
I know he's seen some on there.
Go ahead, Brian office of
1572
01:32:08,600 --> 01:32:11,100
course.
Well, who are you worried about?
1573
01:32:11,100 --> 01:32:16,700
Not seeing on there then.
And I'm saying this guy's
1574
01:32:16,700 --> 01:32:20,300
Praises a lot, but I want to see
Daquan right on this list by the
1575
01:32:20,300 --> 01:32:24,600
end of winter workouts because I
know we got Nick Gallo is a
1576
01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:28,600
big-time workout Warrior but
we're going to need to rely on
1577
01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:33,100
Daquan right to be more than
just a joker tight end that we
1578
01:32:33,100 --> 01:32:35,700
can line up wide.
We really need him to be able to
1579
01:32:36,000 --> 01:32:39,700
get in the wing and get in line
and do things like that because
1580
01:32:39,700 --> 01:32:42,800
that's going to open up some
things for us talent that we can
1581
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:45,300
do offensive ly.
Say what you were saying earlier
1582
01:32:45,300 --> 01:32:48,500
today about Daquan because you
really you made a really good
1583
01:32:48,500 --> 01:32:52,400
point about him.
Me Daquan, is your he is your
1584
01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:57,600
next Virginia Tech tidying to go
to the league.
1585
01:32:58,200 --> 01:33:05,200
He he needs to be salivating to
watch film like Travis Kelce
1586
01:33:05,200 --> 01:33:10,100
hitting all of these tight ends.
Now that are in the league, that
1587
01:33:10,100 --> 01:33:14,100
do what he does.
If he goes hard like Brian is
1588
01:33:14,100 --> 01:33:18,200
saying in this weight room this
offseason because he's already
1589
01:33:18,200 --> 01:33:22,900
burst onto the scene, he goes
hard this offseason in takes
1590
01:33:22,900 --> 01:33:26,800
that next step and you don't
have to take him off the field.
1591
01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:30,800
He's going to call some people,
some problems because you got to
1592
01:33:30,808 --> 01:33:33,500
be able to block you got to be
able to line up, right?
1593
01:33:33,500 --> 01:33:35,500
You got to be able to be flexed
out.
1594
01:33:35,500 --> 01:33:39,900
You got to be able to know how
to pick up blitzes.
1595
01:33:39,900 --> 01:33:41,600
It's a lot of different things
that you have.
1596
01:33:41,800 --> 01:33:45,600
Do and that tight end position.
You pretty much a learning to
1597
01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:49,000
positions, you learning wide
receiver and you're learning
1598
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:52,000
offensive lineman, you know you
got to be able to do both of
1599
01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:55,400
them.
So That is, that is a, that's a
1600
01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:59,400
big one that Brian brought up
that I don't want to use the
1601
01:33:59,400 --> 01:34:02,300
word worried, even us talking
about this, I don't want to use
1602
01:34:02,300 --> 01:34:06,100
the word that it worries us, but
it is something that you like,
1603
01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:09,400
I'd like to see something
different out of that because,
1604
01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:12,500
right?
Right is going to be a big part
1605
01:34:12,500 --> 01:34:15,700
of our offense.
He's gonna be a huge part of our
1606
01:34:15,700 --> 01:34:18,100
offense and even watching, I'll
just go back to the.
1607
01:34:18,100 --> 01:34:23,800
I think it was the Malcolm
Thomas as well, and I know, No,
1608
01:34:23,800 --> 01:34:26,900
he's been battling injuries but
I was just about to say to go
1609
01:34:26,900 --> 01:34:29,300
back and think about the North
Carolina State game.
1610
01:34:31,500 --> 01:34:35,300
We that game look totally
different when Thomas got hurt
1611
01:34:35,800 --> 01:34:39,800
it like it took the air out of
the whole team when he went down
1612
01:34:40,500 --> 01:34:45,400
but the first half we couldn't
do shit and then we come out
1613
01:34:45,400 --> 01:34:49,000
that second half and right takes
over, you know, I think he took
1614
01:34:49,000 --> 01:34:53,000
two passes down the field.
It may have had about 60 yards,
1615
01:34:53,000 --> 01:34:56,100
receiving in two passes or three
passes.
1616
01:34:56,100 --> 01:35:00,800
So him being a part of the
offense dramatically.
1617
01:35:01,600 --> 01:35:06,600
Changes it, when he's when he's
there and as a threat.
1618
01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:12,200
So I'm going to be excited to
see where we go with with him.
1619
01:35:12,500 --> 01:35:14,900
He's shown, he can get open.
He's shown, he can make plays
1620
01:35:14,900 --> 01:35:17,400
after the catch.
You know, had that one big
1621
01:35:17,400 --> 01:35:20,700
fumble that you kind of, you
know, it is what it is.
1622
01:35:21,400 --> 01:35:24,000
He works on ball security.
If he works on blocking, he can
1623
01:35:24,000 --> 01:35:25,500
buy me.
The sky is really the limit for
1624
01:35:25,500 --> 01:35:30,100
him and because he kept a sleet
in the both of y'all's points.
1625
01:35:30,100 --> 01:35:33,900
If you can do everything, And if
he can go in line Wing h-back,
1626
01:35:34,700 --> 01:35:39,100
slot X, if you don't take them
off, if you, if you leave him on
1627
01:35:39,100 --> 01:35:43,200
the field every single play, you
basically you're dictating the
1628
01:35:43,200 --> 01:35:46,100
terms of that defense.
Who you going to put on him.
1629
01:35:46,100 --> 01:35:49,900
Oh, you gonna put the 5-11
little corner back and he can
1630
01:35:49,900 --> 01:35:53,500
come on, try to press him.
He'll Ragdoll him to the ground
1631
01:35:53,500 --> 01:35:55,600
and we don't get it out.
Oh, you're going to take that
1632
01:35:55,600 --> 01:35:57,300
line.
Backers will be two steps off of
1633
01:35:57,300 --> 01:35:58,900
him.
Go for, we will run a little
1634
01:35:58,900 --> 01:36:03,300
scene now now think about this.
Think about how we use Dalton
1635
01:36:03,300 --> 01:36:08,400
King when we had him.
Oh yeah and Don King is and I
1636
01:36:08,400 --> 01:36:11,100
love what dr.
King was he's not half the
1637
01:36:11,100 --> 01:36:17,300
athlete of Daquan right at all.
So Don King went to the league,
1638
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:20,700
no matter how much he played.
He got drafted and went to the
1639
01:36:20,700 --> 01:36:23,900
league.
He is a I think Robbie said it
1640
01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:28,400
perfect matchup Nightmare and
when he catches the ball he
1641
01:36:28,400 --> 01:36:35,600
ain't falling down like Bucky
This is true and I love, I love,
1642
01:36:36,300 --> 01:36:39,500
he was a matchup nightmare, but
he wasn't getting no yards after
1643
01:36:39,500 --> 01:36:44,100
the catch.
Right is so, man, I got one runs
1644
01:36:44,100 --> 01:36:47,000
again, we talked about when we
were talking about Jalen Jones,
1645
01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:48,800
right?
Kind of has the same same
1646
01:36:48,800 --> 01:36:52,600
mentality when he gets the ball.
He's not just going down at
1647
01:36:52,600 --> 01:36:55,800
first time.
No proof freshman to refresh.
1648
01:36:55,800 --> 01:36:58,100
Finish.
Tried to get away and get extra
1649
01:36:58,100 --> 01:37:02,900
yards every time a new Also goes
back to way to coaches are
1650
01:37:02,900 --> 01:37:05,200
teaching.
Hey, you mumbled a ball inside,
1651
01:37:06,100 --> 01:37:08,200
it's football.
We gonna get better.
1652
01:37:08,200 --> 01:37:11,500
It's football people, fumble.
And that's one thing.
1653
01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:14,600
I think I said it, who was it?
Brian, that fumbled and they put
1654
01:37:14,600 --> 01:37:16,100
them right?
Like he shocking last.
1655
01:37:16,100 --> 01:37:19,500
You even though he's looking to
leave us couple times Keyshawn
1656
01:37:19,500 --> 01:37:21,800
fumbled, and he was out there,
couple series later, date
1657
01:37:21,800 --> 01:37:25,400
invention because it's football.
People are going to Fumble,
1658
01:37:25,400 --> 01:37:27,400
people make plays on the other
side of the ball.
1659
01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:31,500
Yeah so that wraps that up, keep
an eye on that if you're I doubt
1660
01:37:31,500 --> 01:37:36,000
there because it's good to see.
I love it to me.
1661
01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:38,900
It's just, it's just lovely to
see.
1662
01:37:39,100 --> 01:37:42,300
They're giving these guys to
credit for busting their asses
1663
01:37:42,300 --> 01:37:45,700
in the winter, and they're
getting recognition every week
1664
01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:47,600
on Fridays.
They, it's that Roundup.
1665
01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:49,800
You expecting it.
And I love seeing that because
1666
01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:52,700
those guys deserve it.
All right, we got a few more
1667
01:37:52,700 --> 01:37:55,000
news and notes.
Before we wrap up tonight.
1668
01:37:55,900 --> 01:37:58,200
Did y'all know the usfl had
their draft today?
1669
01:37:59,100 --> 01:38:16,700
I saw you told me this man
regardless what you say they got
1670
01:38:16,700 --> 01:38:21,900
drafted in have a chance and
opportunity to play in the next
1671
01:38:22,000 --> 01:38:23,600
level.
Yep.
1672
01:38:24,000 --> 01:38:27,800
So good on them.
I'm sure they're there.
1673
01:38:27,800 --> 01:38:30,300
They're hoping it's like Months
from now somebody calls that
1674
01:38:30,300 --> 01:38:33,600
name but they got a lot of stuff
to go through before then and
1675
01:38:33,600 --> 01:38:34,800
it's it's right.
Funny.
1676
01:38:34,800 --> 01:38:36,600
It's like you're secure right
now guys.
1677
01:38:36,600 --> 01:38:39,100
You got something.
Yeah, they got their have
1678
01:38:39,100 --> 01:38:42,900
opportunity to keep playing and
show what they're worth.
1679
01:38:42,900 --> 01:38:48,500
And, you know, it's definitely a
platform that for guys like
1680
01:38:48,500 --> 01:38:52,400
Silas and Jayla that may not be,
you know, standout players in
1681
01:38:52,400 --> 01:38:56,100
terms of getting combine invites
and things like that, it gives
1682
01:38:56,100 --> 01:38:58,600
them a platform to kind of show
what they can do.
1683
01:38:59,100 --> 01:39:02,700
Outside of their college system
in a more pro-style system with
1684
01:39:02,700 --> 01:39:05,200
Pro coaches.
You know, a lot of the guys in
1685
01:39:05,200 --> 01:39:08,400
these leagues that are coaching
now, our former NFL coaches and
1686
01:39:08,407 --> 01:39:10,900
things like that, so that, you
know, they'll be able to see
1687
01:39:10,900 --> 01:39:13,200
that the network kind of gets
created there.
1688
01:39:13,200 --> 01:39:15,200
So it's definitely an Avenue for
them.
1689
01:39:15,200 --> 01:39:19,100
Hope they make the most of it.
Definitely, everybody story
1690
01:39:19,100 --> 01:39:20,600
different, man.
We don't know what somebody's
1691
01:39:20,600 --> 01:39:24,100
Story begins and ends, you know,
somebody.
1692
01:39:25,300 --> 01:39:28,600
They can get it one of these
developmental leagues or XFL.
1693
01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:32,200
Canadian Football League, it
could make their career, their
1694
01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:36,800
it's about money as well.
So if you can play the game you
1695
01:39:36,800 --> 01:39:39,600
love and you can make money for
your family, have it?
1696
01:39:39,800 --> 01:39:41,700
Yes sir.
What's a hokie always?
1697
01:39:41,700 --> 01:39:42,900
Okay, we're going to root you
on.
1698
01:39:43,200 --> 01:39:46,100
You come right by that.
If you went if you win a
1699
01:39:46,100 --> 01:39:48,300
championship week claiming that
fucking Championship.
1700
01:39:49,500 --> 01:39:54,400
Yes, sir.
Well, speaking of making money
1701
01:39:55,100 --> 01:39:59,000
this is strictly here in
Virginia tally out, Liz Not an
1702
01:39:59,000 --> 01:40:01,800
Alabama and Alabama has a state
that does not do it to our
1703
01:40:01,800 --> 01:40:04,000
knowledge.
The vhsl, the Virginia High
1704
01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:07,600
School league is proposing, the
opportunity for high school
1705
01:40:07,600 --> 01:40:10,100
athletes to have name, image,
and likeness.
1706
01:40:11,600 --> 01:40:14,700
What y'all thought I made the
joke earlier.
1707
01:40:14,700 --> 01:40:18,400
So I'll leave this, just because
I know what High School coaches
1708
01:40:18,400 --> 01:40:21,700
make you, I was making a joke
earlier, it's going to be star
1709
01:40:21,700 --> 01:40:24,100
players on high school teams in
this ghostly difficult that are
1710
01:40:24,108 --> 01:40:26,900
making more than the coaches
are.
1711
01:40:27,700 --> 01:40:31,300
Because I mean, coaches stipends
in Virginia, are like four or
1712
01:40:31,300 --> 01:40:35,600
five thousand dollars, it's for
assistant coaches.
1713
01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:38,500
So, it's pretty, pretty, pretty
low ball.
1714
01:40:39,300 --> 01:40:41,800
And most most of them are
teachers to say, yes, Teacher
1715
01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:44,600
salary plus that stipend, you
know what we're looking at
1716
01:40:44,600 --> 01:40:48,100
there.
So that's going to be kind of
1717
01:40:48,100 --> 01:40:50,200
wild.
I have no problem with the y'all
1718
01:40:50,200 --> 01:40:53,100
know.
I'm very much a ni L forward
1719
01:40:53,100 --> 01:40:58,400
person if people can use their
image name and likeness to make
1720
01:40:58,400 --> 01:41:00,600
money.
I'm all for it.
1721
01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:06,000
So, you know, let it ride, it'll
be interesting to see what type
1722
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:08,600
of guard rails.
They put up in place for it, you
1723
01:41:08,600 --> 01:41:09,700
know, you know.
Yeah.
1724
01:41:09,700 --> 01:41:11,300
When you have stuff like that,
you know.
1725
01:41:11,308 --> 01:41:12,700
No, it's not.
Like you said, it's going to be
1726
01:41:12,700 --> 01:41:15,800
guardrails.
They're going to have to do
1727
01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:21,500
something to make sure that it's
in compliance with what they're
1728
01:41:21,500 --> 01:41:26,800
looking for, but like it's what
the things is in our Hill is
1729
01:41:26,800 --> 01:41:31,900
named image likeness.
My name is Jonathan tally, if I
1730
01:41:31,900 --> 01:41:35,400
want to sign, if somebody wants
to pay me to sign an autograph,
1731
01:41:35,400 --> 01:41:39,900
if I'm a 12th grader.
For my name, that's their money.
1732
01:41:40,300 --> 01:41:44,300
I should be able to get paid for
it, you know, is it, it's going
1733
01:41:44,300 --> 01:41:46,600
to have some stuff up, this
going to have to like you said,
1734
01:41:46,600 --> 01:41:50,300
gonna we're gonna have to figure
some things out but I like it.
1735
01:41:50,300 --> 01:41:53,500
I don't think it's a bad thing
and he'll I'm from Alabama.
1736
01:41:53,600 --> 01:41:56,400
People been doing that anyway.
Oh you're right.
1737
01:41:56,800 --> 01:41:58,700
They've been they've been doing
this for years.
1738
01:41:58,800 --> 01:42:02,500
Well, it's closed doors.
Anyway, so we might as well go
1739
01:42:02,500 --> 01:42:05,000
ahead and say, well, we don't
want to get you in trouble.
1740
01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:08,300
We don't want to stop you from
doing playing a sport that Love
1741
01:42:09,100 --> 01:42:12,700
because you took some money
about some Jordans.
1742
01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:17,100
They is Robbie told about his
stipend down in Greenville.
1743
01:42:17,300 --> 01:42:21,400
I mean, I like it when you give
the kids, the opportunity, like
1744
01:42:21,400 --> 01:42:23,700
you said, Talley it's going on.
A lot of places, a lot of
1745
01:42:23,708 --> 01:42:25,600
places.
Anyway, you might as well make
1746
01:42:25,600 --> 01:42:32,200
it all out in the open, you
know, because if it least, it's
1747
01:42:32,200 --> 01:42:35,300
that way, you know, who's you
know what boosters are, what
1748
01:42:35,300 --> 01:42:37,400
high school are stroking, the
checks.
1749
01:42:37,900 --> 01:42:43,600
And that can level some stuff
out in some ways, but we'll see
1750
01:42:43,600 --> 01:42:45,300
how it goes.
Because I'm sure it's got to go
1751
01:42:45,300 --> 01:42:48,000
through legislation and all that
stuff here in the state, which
1752
01:42:48,200 --> 01:42:50,100
it's going to be real
interesting to follow over the
1753
01:42:50,100 --> 01:42:52,100
next couple years.
Yeah, it's gonna be interesting
1754
01:42:52,100 --> 01:42:55,500
to see how they handle.
I mean, because, I mean,
1755
01:42:55,500 --> 01:42:58,900
obviously Virginia, I'll be
recruiting is pretty much
1756
01:42:59,900 --> 01:43:05,000
illegal from a from a letter of
the law standpoint, but it
1757
01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:07,300
happens all the time.
Like it ain't, you know.
1758
01:43:07,800 --> 01:43:10,600
There's fudging, addresses.
I mean, there's there's a lot of
1759
01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:14,700
kids that live in the city that,
you know, play in schools in the
1760
01:43:15,700 --> 01:43:20,400
here, in Richmond area.
There's a lot of kids that are
1761
01:43:20,500 --> 01:43:26,400
Zone places that end up playing
for powers in the 757 that we
1762
01:43:26,400 --> 01:43:29,100
know and love.
So, I mean, there's a lot of
1763
01:43:29,100 --> 01:43:32,800
ways around it.
Yes, but but again, that's
1764
01:43:32,800 --> 01:43:36,100
always been in place and
obviously if you've got in il in
1765
01:43:36,100 --> 01:43:37,600
place, that's just going to kind
of Sweeten.
1766
01:43:37,700 --> 01:43:40,800
In that pot a little bit more
100%.
1767
01:43:40,800 --> 01:43:44,000
It, there's always a family
member that lives in the
1768
01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:48,400
district that you want to play
as I guaran-damn-tee.
1769
01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:52,500
All right, two more things.
Shout out to treadmill horse,
1770
01:43:52,500 --> 01:43:54,500
for putting this out there a
couple weeks ago.
1771
01:43:54,800 --> 01:43:57,100
Apparently, we're going to have
better cell service and lean
1772
01:43:57,100 --> 01:43:59,100
Stadium, this year.
Apparently, they put some
1773
01:43:59,100 --> 01:44:01,900
antennas up.
And I mean, I've won when I go
1774
01:44:01,900 --> 01:44:05,000
to the game, and it's been,
it'll be three years now.
1775
01:44:05,000 --> 01:44:10,300
Since I last step foot in Lane,
I checked my Phone during, you
1776
01:44:10,300 --> 01:44:12,600
know, the quarters.
If I walk to the pisser or
1777
01:44:12,600 --> 01:44:16,100
half-time in the end of the
game, I'm not out there.
1778
01:44:16,100 --> 01:44:17,700
Planted.
I know people like well, film
1779
01:44:17,700 --> 01:44:20,900
Sam is so cool.
I've been old school kid.
1780
01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:26,200
I used to sit in West stands in
the student section and when you
1781
01:44:26,200 --> 01:44:30,000
sit in that section it is an
experience when you feel your
1782
01:44:30,000 --> 01:44:31,800
body move.
So, when I hear the kids out
1783
01:44:31,800 --> 01:44:34,800
here like this, like what do you
like, what you freaking phone
1784
01:44:34,800 --> 01:44:39,000
down and enjoy it.
Curtis, you got to get into the
1785
01:44:39,000 --> 01:44:42,700
new century man.
I'm sorry you got it, you gotta
1786
01:44:42,800 --> 01:44:46,200
listen, I gotta send your
question, your kids age 10?
1787
01:44:46,900 --> 01:44:50,700
Okay, you're still young.
I got a 13 and 17 year old.
1788
01:44:51,000 --> 01:44:54,600
It's all about Tick-Tock and
Instagram, and all of that
1789
01:44:54,600 --> 01:44:57,500
stuff.
So people want to see the real
1790
01:44:57,500 --> 01:45:02,100
world, the real stuff like they
want to see the Raw and Uncut
1791
01:45:02,100 --> 01:45:06,500
footage of Sandman and people
running out and Brian getting
1792
01:45:06,500 --> 01:45:08,200
drunk.
And Falling over beside them.
1793
01:45:08,200 --> 01:45:12,200
Like they need that Self
Service, they need to have it
1794
01:45:12,200 --> 01:45:14,600
better.
They want those live updates
1795
01:45:14,600 --> 01:45:18,000
during the game.
I get you, I understand.
1796
01:45:18,000 --> 01:45:24,500
We are not caring too much about
that, but those kids, well,
1797
01:45:24,500 --> 01:45:26,200
we're trying to pack that
Stadium.
1798
01:45:27,100 --> 01:45:30,100
We want them to stay in.
Now, we need them to be able to
1799
01:45:30,100 --> 01:45:32,200
check Tick, Tock to see what
card he be doing.
1800
01:45:33,400 --> 01:45:38,900
Okay, I hear you, I'll say this.
So, Even if you think you from
1801
01:45:38,900 --> 01:45:41,300
an old school perspective,
there's times when you can't
1802
01:45:41,300 --> 01:45:43,600
even send a damn text message
last.
1803
01:45:43,600 --> 01:45:47,200
That was a pain in the ass.
So like, if I get separated from
1804
01:45:47,200 --> 01:45:49,900
the guy came to the game with
like I can't even send the damn
1805
01:45:49,900 --> 01:45:53,300
text message, where the hell,
yeah, three hours later you find
1806
01:45:53,300 --> 01:45:55,600
somebody down at tots on the
fifth real?
1807
01:45:55,900 --> 01:46:01,000
Yes, I carry you home.
Now, he's going to collect all
1808
01:46:01,000 --> 01:46:03,500
of that Sandman footage.
You can the next time we've been
1809
01:46:03,500 --> 01:46:08,200
laying, I'm getting all of it.
I'll tell you what, though.
1810
01:46:08,200 --> 01:46:13,900
I got talk a lot of trash about
Sandman, but even being like
1811
01:46:13,900 --> 01:46:18,500
when you're there, it's just,
it's a surreal is feeling, you
1812
01:46:18,500 --> 01:46:21,600
know what I'm saying?
To go through it and even like,
1813
01:46:21,600 --> 01:46:26,400
I've been there when we play
Clemson, whatever year, when 17,
1814
01:46:26,700 --> 01:46:31,500
17 17 at place where nuts?
Yeah, that was.
1815
01:46:38,200 --> 01:46:41,600
Kinda I was I was there a little
late but I did get the I would
1816
01:46:41,600 --> 01:46:43,700
never write when it started, but
I got there.
1817
01:46:43,700 --> 01:46:47,400
And it was nuts, man is and I
was kind of finding my way and
1818
01:46:47,400 --> 01:46:52,200
feeling my way around town that
was my wife's first game action,
1819
01:46:52,200 --> 01:46:55,800
I love it because my first game
was 16 and she went with me and
1820
01:46:55,800 --> 01:46:58,900
17.
Yeah I'll say I say this.
1821
01:46:58,900 --> 01:47:04,200
I got to go 05 Georgia Tech game
day with said my fraternity
1822
01:47:04,200 --> 01:47:05,600
Brother David and my fraternity
brother.
1823
01:47:05,600 --> 01:47:11,100
Brian.
And I will tell anyone, if you
1824
01:47:11,100 --> 01:47:15,900
if if you are a tech fan in game
day, comes this year and you can
1825
01:47:15,900 --> 01:47:19,900
go go go.
It is a great experience.
1826
01:47:20,400 --> 01:47:23,500
It is a, even if you can't get,
it is football.
1827
01:47:23,600 --> 01:47:25,600
It is, it is something
different.
1828
01:47:25,600 --> 01:47:28,200
And I mean, we got there about
you because that's when it was
1829
01:47:28,200 --> 01:47:31,200
like a two-hour show.
We got there the last 40 minutes
1830
01:47:31,200 --> 01:47:34,400
and I mean, it was like this,
you know, and when I was with
1831
01:47:34,400 --> 01:47:37,500
me, I got that right.
The last 30, 30 minutes.
1832
01:47:37,500 --> 01:47:41,300
Yep, and it, and it just your
feel it brundun.
1833
01:47:41,500 --> 01:47:44,100
Yeah.
I haven't made a game time.
1834
01:47:44,300 --> 01:47:45,300
There we go.
There we go.
1835
01:47:45,300 --> 01:47:49,800
That's the, it's on the list.
There we go.
1836
01:47:50,400 --> 01:47:53,300
So the thing is, man, like me
being here.
1837
01:47:53,800 --> 01:47:59,100
I've been to a couple of games
and, you know, different sets of
1838
01:47:59,900 --> 01:48:04,300
tailgates and things like that.
When we came up and 16, we
1839
01:48:04,300 --> 01:48:06,500
didn't know anybody me and my
buddy.
1840
01:48:07,700 --> 01:48:12,300
Like personally like I know you
guys know we just we knew a
1841
01:48:12,300 --> 01:48:15,900
couple of people off of Facebook
like names, okay, he looks like
1842
01:48:15,900 --> 01:48:19,800
this, he looks like this.
And yeah man we got a warm
1843
01:48:19,800 --> 01:48:25,200
welcome like just walking by
tailgates and and having
1844
01:48:25,200 --> 01:48:27,100
conversations with people.
Oh yeah.
1845
01:48:27,100 --> 01:48:28,600
You talk different where you
from?
1846
01:48:28,600 --> 01:48:30,300
I'm from Alabama, what are you
doing here?
1847
01:48:30,600 --> 01:48:33,600
You know what I'm saying?
And then just it trickled into
1848
01:48:34,200 --> 01:48:37,000
you got a tailgate place here,
you got to place under like Like
1849
01:48:37,000 --> 01:48:39,900
yeah, I met some people, this
longtime friends like my friend,
1850
01:48:39,900 --> 01:48:42,900
Mike is like my brother.
Now we talked on the phone
1851
01:48:42,900 --> 01:48:47,100
probably once a day and that's
why I've been to most of my
1852
01:48:47,100 --> 01:48:50,600
games with now it's just a
different feeling when you get
1853
01:48:50,600 --> 01:48:53,600
to Blacksburg man hid in a lot
of different places I've been
1854
01:48:53,600 --> 01:48:57,300
and even when you talk about
Alabama, going to Tuscaloosa
1855
01:48:57,300 --> 01:49:02,000
going to to Auburn course I want
the Jacksonville State played,
1856
01:49:02,000 --> 01:49:06,700
you know, seeing some games
there and just a Alabama A&M.
1857
01:49:06,900 --> 01:49:08,300
Live here in Huntsville, they're
here.
1858
01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:12,700
I've been to a couple of
different games, but tailgate
1859
01:49:12,700 --> 01:49:15,900
wise and just the community is
just a different feeling.
1860
01:49:16,100 --> 01:49:19,300
And I know that sounds cliche to
people who are not, you know,
1861
01:49:19,300 --> 01:49:22,900
haven't been there and having
experienced it, but it is, is it
1862
01:49:22,900 --> 01:49:25,500
something different?
I'm just, I'm looking forward to
1863
01:49:25,500 --> 01:49:29,000
the day when those when those
games are as meaningful.
1864
01:49:29,000 --> 01:49:35,100
Yeah.
As 16, they 2016 and we played
1865
01:49:35,100 --> 01:49:38,700
Miami on that Thursday night.
It was just it was electric man,
1866
01:49:39,000 --> 01:49:42,200
you know what I'm saying?
And it was even before we
1867
01:49:42,200 --> 01:49:46,800
stepped on the field, you know,
it was just excitement, you
1868
01:49:46,800 --> 01:49:51,300
know, like Virginia Tech
football was back and so I look
1869
01:49:51,300 --> 01:49:54,600
forward to getting back to those
getting back to those games and
1870
01:49:54,900 --> 01:49:57,600
getting back to those days and
damn it.
1871
01:49:57,700 --> 01:50:01,200
This is the year, let's do it.
All right, you already couple
1872
01:50:01,200 --> 01:50:04,600
the best environment with
actually playing for something
1873
01:50:04,600 --> 01:50:06,700
that matters right playing the
meaningful game.
1874
01:50:07,700 --> 01:50:09,400
And I think that's what's been
missing.
1875
01:50:09,400 --> 01:50:13,200
I think, you know, even when we
were looking at kind of the
1876
01:50:13,200 --> 01:50:15,300
upcoming schedule, we were
looking at it last year, looking
1877
01:50:15,300 --> 01:50:17,600
at this year.
I mean, it's not, it's not a lot
1878
01:50:17,600 --> 01:50:22,300
of what I'd call meaningful home
games this year, in terms of.
1879
01:50:22,800 --> 01:50:25,700
But if you never gave that a
probably big that are going to
1880
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,700
potentially matter, whether it's
in the ACC race or something
1881
01:50:28,700 --> 01:50:29,600
like that.
Yeah.
1882
01:50:30,700 --> 01:50:34,400
But the thing is, if you sit
here in we're you know we're
1883
01:50:34,400 --> 01:50:35,900
shooting the breeze.
Now we got one more thing to
1884
01:50:35,900 --> 01:50:36,700
talk about.
We're going to wrap.
1885
01:50:36,800 --> 01:50:38,900
It up because we almost been
going to ours.
1886
01:50:38,900 --> 01:50:40,200
Welcome.
Maybe to the new normal.
1887
01:50:41,400 --> 01:50:46,100
But if you tell me, it's late,
October like the Syracuse game
1888
01:50:46,100 --> 01:50:49,800
in text 6, + 1, 7 and 0.
It's a big game that don't
1889
01:50:49,800 --> 01:50:53,600
matter like we're good.
This game matters to us about
1890
01:50:53,600 --> 01:50:56,500
where we're trying to go.
Wouldn't get it when it gained
1891
01:50:56,500 --> 01:50:59,600
will game winning games changed.
Everything you go.
1892
01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:02,700
You start winning games
regardless.
1893
01:51:02,700 --> 01:51:06,700
What the team is, the atmosphere
changes and it tag it goes from.
1894
01:51:07,100 --> 01:51:10,000
It's always an unbelievable
atmosphere to make you think
1895
01:51:10,000 --> 01:51:13,000
about 16 when you were there and
then 17 and Clemson when we were
1896
01:51:13,000 --> 01:51:15,800
unbeaten, playing them is
through the roof.
1897
01:51:16,100 --> 01:51:20,100
And when we were going in the
early 2000s and you know, KJ was
1898
01:51:20,100 --> 01:51:27,000
there in Bryan, Randall in Hall,
it was Unreal and we're sitting
1899
01:51:27,000 --> 01:51:30,000
here.
We all are in our later 30s and
1900
01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:31,800
we're trying to tell this
generation.
1901
01:51:31,800 --> 01:51:36,200
It's like don't leave it half
time State like watch the game
1902
01:51:36,300 --> 01:51:37,100
be there.
R.
1903
01:51:37,100 --> 01:51:40,500
Because when this place gets
loud and nasty, teens don't like
1904
01:51:40,500 --> 01:51:44,800
playing here, they don't like
driving up 81 from Roanoke.
1905
01:51:44,800 --> 01:51:47,000
And the smoke comes rolling off
the mountains.
1906
01:51:47,300 --> 01:51:50,100
And you see that big brick
walls, you get on 460 and, you
1907
01:51:50,100 --> 01:51:54,400
know, man, it's about to get
loud and nasty for a few hours
1908
01:51:54,400 --> 01:51:57,400
on that field.
And that's what, you know,
1909
01:51:57,900 --> 01:52:00,000
that's what we've seen.
That's what we want.
1910
01:52:00,900 --> 01:52:03,500
Speaking of speaking of that,
since we're talking about it and
1911
01:52:03,500 --> 01:52:06,800
like you said, I know, we gotta
wrap this up what game?
1912
01:52:07,000 --> 01:52:09,500
Is that you guys?
What games are you guys looking
1913
01:52:09,500 --> 01:52:12,200
at this year that you're trying
to trying to make?
1914
01:52:12,200 --> 01:52:13,100
You haven't even thought about
it?
1915
01:52:13,100 --> 01:52:16,100
Yeah, you thought about it.
I'm definitely going to
1916
01:52:16,100 --> 01:52:18,600
Louisville.
I'm wrapping that up.
1917
01:52:18,600 --> 01:52:20,300
I'm pull, you going up my
camera?
1918
01:52:20,400 --> 01:52:22,300
That's a road game.
Yeah.
1919
01:52:22,400 --> 01:52:24,400
Okay.
I'm going to Louisville this
1920
01:52:24,400 --> 01:52:26,400
year.
I got a couple of friends.
1921
01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:29,700
It's already got their rooms,
and I'm probably going to get
1922
01:52:29,700 --> 01:52:33,800
mine Friday, but I don't know
which home game.
1923
01:52:33,800 --> 01:52:36,800
I'm coming too or, how many home
games I'm coming too?
1924
01:52:36,900 --> 01:52:41,100
Right now it looks like Purdue
is probably the home game.
1925
01:52:41,100 --> 01:52:43,400
Did I'm coming too?
All right, just because I
1926
01:52:43,407 --> 01:52:46,100
refused to come and watch us
play ODU.
1927
01:52:49,900 --> 01:52:55,000
I can't handle it either way.
Win or loss, I don't want to see
1928
01:52:55,000 --> 01:53:00,500
it but produce the team that,
you know, we ain't played maybe
1929
01:53:00,500 --> 01:53:02,800
a little different.
I seen this played Notre Dame.
1930
01:53:02,800 --> 01:53:07,500
I seen us play clip.
At home.
1931
01:53:07,500 --> 01:53:11,200
I seen this play Miami, so I'm
just looking for a good game and
1932
01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:13,600
that's a early game.
We go into that.
1933
01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:17,500
Not if we're going to beat ODU
this year, we're going to go
1934
01:53:17,500 --> 01:53:19,800
beat them this year and then
we're going to be 1 and 0.
1935
01:53:19,800 --> 01:53:20,900
Yep.
And then we're going to go in
1936
01:53:20,900 --> 01:53:23,900
and we're going to play Purdue
and I'm looking for us to smack
1937
01:53:23,900 --> 01:53:26,300
them and I want to be there.
I'm all right.
1938
01:53:26,300 --> 01:53:29,000
That's what you did.
I'm saying I'm going to and I'm
1939
01:53:29,008 --> 01:53:31,100
going to the spring and we are
going to spring game.
1940
01:53:31,100 --> 01:53:34,300
I'll be there he's gonna be
there I can't confirm or deny
1941
01:53:34,300 --> 01:53:36,400
yet.
I got kids doing a lot of stuff
1942
01:53:36,600 --> 01:53:40,000
I I ain't going to guarantee it.
I mean, you've been there and,
1943
01:53:40,200 --> 01:53:42,300
you know, me and being telephone
link-up.
1944
01:53:42,300 --> 01:53:48,000
Regardless Wally cannot Sublime.
You grab them by the balls and
1945
01:53:48,000 --> 01:54:03,100
throw him in the back.
And that man is going to be an
1946
01:54:03,100 --> 01:54:05,300
assistant defensive back coach
for the Panthers.
1947
01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:10,200
He got the itch right?
Yep he got that itch got the
1948
01:54:10,200 --> 01:54:14,900
itch.
I mean by some media for a
1949
01:54:14,907 --> 01:54:17,000
while.
So I mean it's interesting that
1950
01:54:17,000 --> 01:54:19,900
these jumping in The Fray but
I'm happy for him.
1951
01:54:19,900 --> 01:54:23,200
That's yes, that's something
that I think he's always kind of
1952
01:54:23,200 --> 01:54:26,300
looked at, but just kind of and
figured out I went to make the
1953
01:54:26,300 --> 01:54:27,700
jump.
What's the right move?
1954
01:54:27,800 --> 01:54:31,800
When's the right time and if he
finally took that step so good
1955
01:54:31,800 --> 01:54:33,500
for him.
This coaching job sweat, so he
1956
01:54:33,500 --> 01:54:36,500
can come back to Tech and help
us out.
1957
01:54:36,500 --> 01:54:39,300
That's what he's doing.
He talked to me and told me that
1958
01:54:39,500 --> 01:54:42,000
I, there we go, flying.

Go tallies got some sources
here.
1960
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:47,600

trying to come back without
1961
01:54:47,600 --> 01:54:48,800
tell.
