1
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,200
The fields for the dirt, we
don't even grow.

2
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,300
I spent my morning just cleaning
shit off your skin.

3
00:00:30,700 --> 00:00:33,600
This house is falling down.
The beach Bellas are broken

4
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,900
down.
It can ramble mother molded

00:00:36,900 --> 00:00:53,600
steal this stuck in a trap.
Alright, welcome back to the

6
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,800
boundary Corner podcast, Curtis
Wilson on this end.

7
00:00:58,300 --> 00:00:59,800
Brian.
Sigler, here on this saying

8
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,100
how's it going, guys, dude,
rolling.

9
00:01:03,100 --> 00:01:05,600
Today at work.
It's been a fun day with a lot

10
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,900
of different stuff.
I know you get called into a

11
00:01:07,900 --> 00:01:10,100
meeting where we're going to do
this a little while ago.

12
00:01:11,900 --> 00:01:14,600
Well, it's spring break here on
campus and this is our special

13
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,700
Spring Break episode, but your
boy still working.

14
00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:20,600
So, Not so much of a spring
break.

15
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:23,600
We'll see how it goes.
Not much of a spring break.

16
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:27,600
Yeah you talked about working
during spring break man I've

17
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:32,700
never had the opportunity to
ever take a true spring break.

18
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,800
All the years in school was
either.

19
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,700
It was either when I did local
Community College, I was working

20
00:01:39,700 --> 00:01:41,700
a job.
And then down at Longwood, the

21
00:01:41,700 --> 00:01:45,300
three years, I would go back to
Halifax and works.

22
00:01:45,300 --> 00:01:48,200
I need the money.
It was for money, is money is

23
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,400
definitely.
Better than than spending it on,

24
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:52,400
you know, when you don't have
it.

25
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,700
So no trips to Cancun for you
though.

26
00:01:56,700 --> 00:02:03,200
No, no.
Fortunately, I really want to go

27
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:08,100
through the last six weeks
before summer break and not have

28
00:02:08,100 --> 00:02:12,400
any money, like literally
drinking, John Paul, Jones and

29
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,400
Mickey's the rest of the
semester.

30
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,400
In Hindi all food, you could be
stuck with Mad Dog.

31
00:02:18,900 --> 00:02:20,900
Me.
So you know, it could definitely

32
00:02:20,900 --> 00:02:24,500
be worse, you know, that's the
way it goes.

33
00:02:24,500 --> 00:02:28,600
Did you know you never really
had any spring break experiences

34
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,900
like out at like the typical
spring break but you had one

35
00:02:31,900 --> 00:02:34,700
right back maybe your junior
year.

36
00:02:35,100 --> 00:02:37,800
Yes.
So I just started dating my

37
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,300
wife.
So we were we were still just

38
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,800
pretty early in the in the
dating range at that point.

39
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,800
And so Spring Breaks were
different week.

40
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,400
So I actually headed up To
Blacksburg scooped her up from

41
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:56,400
Lee Hall and headed over to some
of my buddies place and had a

42
00:02:56,408 --> 00:03:02,700
good night of drinking.
And at some point there was a

43
00:03:03,100 --> 00:03:06,300
truck pull in the Fox Ridge,
parking lot.

44
00:03:06,900 --> 00:03:10,500
I don't know how that happens,
but you know, we're from a small

45
00:03:10,500 --> 00:03:13,000
town in the South so shit.
Like that usually happens at

46
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,700
some point Fox Ridge bag.
Fox Ridge, exactly.

47
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,900
So you're there's a, there's a
lot of jacking code, there's a

48
00:03:20,908 --> 00:03:23,400
lot of beer and then there was a
truck pull so you know, a

49
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,400
typical weekend, Saturday, night
and fox Ranch.

50
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:33,300
Oh yeah, the tabs at Fox Ridge.
Spent, that's when you as you

51
00:03:33,308 --> 00:03:36,800
hear me and Brian talk, that's
where a lot of our friends who

52
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,300
went to Tech, who we would go to
Blacksburg and wealth with.

53
00:03:40,300 --> 00:03:43,600
I feel like 90% of them lived in
Fox Ridge, at some point or

54
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,700
another.
Yeah, for another another, they

55
00:03:45,700 --> 00:03:48,100
ended up in Fox Ridge, at least
for one year.

56
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,200
So, that is one part of our in
Virginia Tech experience.

57
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,800
It's funny when we went to the
pit game, did you notice who the

58
00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:01,000
sponsor of pots was the cup?
Oh yeah, we had some Fox reach

59
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,200
out.
I was right there when it was,

60
00:04:02,300 --> 00:04:04,400
it was Fox Ridge.
Okay.

61
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:06,900
Okay.
Like your Genius marketing.

62
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,400
Awesome.
Well guys, this is going to be

63
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,200
one of our long more in-depth
podcast.

64
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,600
We're just going to hit a few
things this week spring break,

65
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:17,100
spring back.
Yeah, you know, we've got to

66
00:04:17,100 --> 00:04:18,700
have some time off to
recalibrate.

67
00:04:18,899 --> 00:04:23,300
Our brains, with all the between
work family and you know,

68
00:04:23,300 --> 00:04:27,600
talking about Hokies Football so
you know, let's let's kick it

69
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:33,100
off here the XFL MVP.
I mean, three out of five weeks

70
00:04:33,100 --> 00:04:35,200
we got to start of the week in
Canfield's, man.

71
00:04:35,500 --> 00:04:38,800
I mean he's what can we say at
this point?

72
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:44,200
I mean, yeah, 31 catch, this 455
yards, 9 touchdowns where their

73
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,300
game.
This is game six this coming

74
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:48,600
week so they've only got a few
games left.

75
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,900
I mean, we've said it two or
three times, he's going to be on

76
00:04:52,900 --> 00:04:58,900
an NFL roster and then, you
know, it's good to me.

77
00:04:58,900 --> 00:05:02,000
It's one of those things that's
good for poke football because

78
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,600
it kind of says, you know, you
have the potential to keep

79
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:11,100
playing professionally.
This guy's bawling, can we got a

80
00:05:11,100 --> 00:05:13,300
good personality?
You can tell that by what

81
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,800
eating, what did he have?
Chips and dip on the sidelines

82
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,700
or at halftime the other week?
Yeah, I don't know what.

83
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:20,600
People have time, whatever it
was, it worked.

84
00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:24,800
It worked.
So, you know, that was something

85
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:30,500
cool, couple weeks ago.
Brian, if you didn't see, Kevin

86
00:05:30,500 --> 00:05:34,400
Lewis, the d-tackle from kind of
a golden age of poke football.

87
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,000
Yeah, he got hired by Furman is
the d-line coach.

88
00:05:38,100 --> 00:05:42,300
So nice.
So you know again it's great to

89
00:05:42,300 --> 00:05:46,100
see those former Hokies
continuing to thrive in the

90
00:05:46,500 --> 00:05:50,600
college football community.
We mentioned earlier, his

91
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:54,500
brothers down the piranhas.
So, one of those cool things.

92
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,800
What else have you seen?
Brian that kind of caught your

93
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,400
eye.
I tell you the big thing, the

94
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,900
hard hat series continues to
knock it out of the park.

95
00:06:02,900 --> 00:06:07,900
We got to see dachshund, Rook,
Richard Ashby, you know, kicking

96
00:06:07,900 --> 00:06:10,900
it back and forth this week.
Well, I guess it was the end of

97
00:06:10,900 --> 00:06:16,000
last week was when that
happened, you know, it they the

98
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:18,700
content just keeps getting
better and better and you know,

99
00:06:18,900 --> 00:06:21,000
I really like this one a lot.
What did you think about it,

100
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,700
man?
I'm absolutely loved it.

101
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,400
The series in general is great
because again, you're getting

102
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:31,600
the personalities, not only of
the players which, you know, you

103
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,400
can see on the field but you're
seeing some with the coaches

104
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,200
with these two guys.
It's a it's awesome to see you

105
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,800
know one of the 804 is very
best.

106
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:48,800
Get some time to shine mr. 6ft.
I think that's what they should

107
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,800
make name in them this mr6.
Well, yeah, six foot.

108
00:06:51,900 --> 00:07:03,400
He's like six foot that space on
that personality.

109
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,700
It's allowing us to peel some of
the layers that we've been

110
00:07:06,700 --> 00:07:12,300
wanting this fans into me.
It's there they are a formidable

111
00:07:12,300 --> 00:07:15,900
linebacker Duo, man.
And And they played and I think

112
00:07:15,900 --> 00:07:19,600
it's they kind of counteract
each other because you know

113
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,100
what, you do.
See any with the interview real

114
00:07:22,100 --> 00:07:27,300
quick more disciplined you know
finding the tackle plays hard as

115
00:07:27,300 --> 00:07:31,000
they said he is a dog he was not
highly rated coming out and then

116
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,800
you've got backs just all the
180 opposite, right?

117
00:07:34,900 --> 00:07:40,900
Oh yeah I mean Dax is very
vocal, very loud.

118
00:07:41,300 --> 00:07:43,700
Highly rated Prospect when he
came out.

119
00:07:44,300 --> 00:07:48,000
To me, he's lived up to it,
especially when he was thrown in

120
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,200
that freshman year, he made some
mistakes but there are a couple

121
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,300
games that we won that.
If he hadn't been on the field

122
00:07:54,300 --> 00:07:57,600
playing in that backer position,
we probably don't make a bowl.

123
00:07:58,700 --> 00:08:01,500
What else did you see from it?
I mean, I think the big thing is

124
00:08:01,500 --> 00:08:04,500
that I mean, I know some people
probably have a similar

125
00:08:04,700 --> 00:08:08,500
relationship that I'm about to
describe here, but like, you got

126
00:08:08,500 --> 00:08:13,600
two guys that more or less a
very different, we're very

127
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,000
different.
Current before they arrived in

128
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:19,200
Blacksburg, I feel like but they
found something that United them

129
00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:21,600
and they have this mutual
respect for it but they also

130
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,200
have developed this friendship
as a result of that mutual

131
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,000
respect.
And you could kind of feel that,

132
00:08:27,500 --> 00:08:31,100
that that dynamic between them.
Like, these are guys, that

133
00:08:31,100 --> 00:08:34,799
probably have very different,
very different come up splitter

134
00:08:34,799 --> 00:08:38,700
still have found something in
common that really, really binds

135
00:08:38,700 --> 00:08:40,799
them pretty close.
And I thought that was really

136
00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:44,800
special to see and just, you
know, the Robert camaraderie

137
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,600
that you see there, then tossing
it back and forth.

138
00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:52,100
And you know, Dax giving Richard
a hard time about the 6-foot

139
00:08:52,100 --> 00:08:55,500
comment and I mean, you could
definitely tell that there's

140
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,900
there's history there and that
they really have an appreciation

141
00:08:58,900 --> 00:09:02,400
of not only, you know, being a
little bit different personality

142
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:07,200
wise, but also being different
in how they held their games

143
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:08,600
are.
But at the same time, the one

144
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:12,100
thing that's similar to both of
us, how hard they work at it and

145
00:09:12,100 --> 00:09:13,600
I feel like that that's your
best interest.

146
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,200
It comes in.
Absolutely, and then you talked

147
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,400
about them.
If you remember, one of the one

148
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,000
of the big words, if I can
recollect was, they said, family

149
00:09:21,100 --> 00:09:22,600
quite a few times.
Oh yeah.

150
00:09:22,700 --> 00:09:24,600
Oh, yeah.
And then they talked a little

151
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,300
bit about J Hamm and it's been a
few days since we watch this

152
00:09:27,300 --> 00:09:29,500
guy's.
So, you know, apologize if we're

153
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:33,000
not hitting all the key points.
But the family thing was a big

154
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,000
thing to me and your kind of
hearing that more and more.

155
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,200
It's kind of almost like the
thing this offseason because,

156
00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,600
you know, you had the Hoffman
episode and those guys talking

157
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,200
about How he came in and became
that leader, kind of the leader

158
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,000
of the family who wasn't able to
play.

159
00:09:48,500 --> 00:09:52,300
Then we saw the video with, you
know, the discussion and we

160
00:09:52,308 --> 00:09:54,200
didn't get to discuss this.
So let's hit it.

161
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,900
Now with when they have the core
Nielsen who went a vise until

162
00:09:58,900 --> 00:10:01,700
Nick talking about essentially
living in a frat house when they

163
00:10:01,700 --> 00:10:05,500
were just getting their start at
Illinois State about, it was

164
00:10:05,500 --> 00:10:07,700
like, it was like a family, was
just a bunch of guys on the

165
00:10:07,708 --> 00:10:11,000
grease board after just football
all the time.

166
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,900
You kind of saw that.
With the Hamilton, when they,

167
00:10:14,900 --> 00:10:18,800
when we met the defensive
coaches, it's, that's the trend

168
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:20,600
this year.
Oh yeah, you saw you saw with

169
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:25,000
the, with QP and tendons, to is.
Yeah, so mean, I mean it's all

170
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,300
definitely going back to, you
know, this is a family.

171
00:10:27,900 --> 00:10:30,600
You know, we all come from
different areas but we're here.

172
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,600
We're family were together.
This is what it's all about.

173
00:10:33,900 --> 00:10:36,300
We lean on each other when we
need to, we pick each other up

174
00:10:36,300 --> 00:10:38,700
and we need to that's what it
is.

175
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,500
Yeah, in something else that
County goes back and you know,

176
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:46,500
we And it, I know.
I think you got to listen to it.

177
00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:48,300
I want to give a shout out to
Tech.

178
00:10:48,300 --> 00:10:52,700
Sideline will Stewart, The
Godfather of independent Tech

179
00:10:53,100 --> 00:10:56,300
football and Sports, Talk long,
Chris Coleman, and all those

180
00:10:56,300 --> 00:11:00,500
guys over there.
Do a great job, listening to the

181
00:11:00,500 --> 00:11:04,200
teal interview, you did get to
listen to it.

182
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,100
Correct?
Yeah.

183
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,800
Okay.
And David tyll discussing how

184
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,100
our head coach when he is in
front of that podium.

185
00:11:12,900 --> 00:11:16,200
He is a different person than
when he is in a room with four

186
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,000
or five people.
And it's one of those things.

187
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,300
It's probably his personality
should whip.

188
00:11:22,300 --> 00:11:24,700
Baptized hire somebody to
helping at the podium.

189
00:11:24,700 --> 00:11:29,900
Yes, please.
You know, I mean, sometimes I

190
00:11:29,908 --> 00:11:34,700
think we do see coach Fuente
come off the cusp and say, a

191
00:11:34,708 --> 00:11:36,500
little more, but he's very
tight-lipped.

192
00:11:36,500 --> 00:11:40,000
It's almost one of those things.
Like don't give your enemy.

193
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,700
Any words that they can put up
his motivation.

194
00:11:43,700 --> 00:11:48,000
He's not trying to give anybody
extra ammo, so he's be plays it.

195
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,100
Close to the vest in those
situations.

196
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,100
And I mean, it's probably coming
from somebody that either.

197
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:57,400
Somebody they're talking that or
he learned that on because, you

198
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,800
know, there's all sorts of
situations of somebody saying

199
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,000
something, you know, off the
cuff.

200
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,900
I mean, God, Mike Leach has made
an entire career out of it.

201
00:12:06,300 --> 00:12:10,400
So and sometimes to his
detriment and sometimes to his

202
00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:14,500
Edit you know, there's a reason
probably Mike Leach has just now

203
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:19,000
starting to get some some major
run at bigger bigger schools and

204
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:23,000
even then, I mean we're still
talking about second tier in

205
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:27,100
terms of the conference season.
So true, there's a reason for

206
00:12:27,100 --> 00:12:30,700
that and some of that is the
fact that sometimes those things

207
00:12:30,700 --> 00:12:35,600
that endear us to the fans, can
also backfire Administration.

208
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:41,400
Exactly.
So I think Mi cuenta is

209
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,400
definitely got that in their
mind when they're talking about

210
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,700
it.
So, 100, 100 percent and it's

211
00:12:48,700 --> 00:12:53,500
one of those things too, and we
can all joke about it, folks,

212
00:12:53,500 --> 00:12:56,500
listening out there folks, who
work like Brian works for an

213
00:12:56,500 --> 00:13:00,500
educational institution.
I work for a corporate, a pretty

214
00:13:00,500 --> 00:13:05,200
large corporation, you can't
just go out and just shoot

215
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,400
things off at the hip.
Sometimes that's a good way to

216
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,600
get in a lot of trouble with
your to VP He's or in your case,

217
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,000
like your director like so you
said what?

218
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,900
Oh ya Shoulda said that, huh?
Yeah, I can hear from the from

219
00:13:18,900 --> 00:13:23,000
anywhere for my supervisor, to
my department head to, you know,

220
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,700
dean of students being a school
of medicine.

221
00:13:26,700 --> 00:13:30,400
So, I mean, there's a lot of
there's a lot of layers where I

222
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,000
could hear things from.
If I say something that doesn't

223
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:38,800
reflect well upon the University
or is not in my purview to speak

224
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:44,200
on publicly, Exactly.
So, you know, so let's just put

225
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,000
that hat on some time when you
see our head coach up there, do

226
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,500
we want to be more animated?
Yes, maybe it'll come in years.

227
00:13:50,500 --> 00:13:53,800
Let's cross our fingers.
I really wish we could see some

228
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:58,100
old stuff of Frank in the late
80s, early 90s because I think

229
00:13:58,100 --> 00:14:01,000
we all have the vision of Frank,
his last, you know, decade when

230
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,300
he was pretty much entrenched
and the legend, you know, Frank

231
00:14:04,300 --> 00:14:09,400
was very loose, Frank lose Fancy
Gap and we loved him for.

232
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,000
So yeah.
Yeah, well, Frank new friend who

233
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,700
had a bullshit in a way that
didn't get him in trouble too.

234
00:14:14,700 --> 00:14:18,500
So I think it's an art.
I mean, not everybody has that

235
00:14:18,500 --> 00:14:21,100
gift.
Exactly.

236
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:27,800
Moving on to more topics, the
big five star visit man.

237
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,700
Brian you followed this pretty
close.

238
00:14:30,300 --> 00:14:31,900
So what have you what have you
read?

239
00:14:31,900 --> 00:14:38,400
And seen about the treyvion
Anderson visit last week down in

240
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,400
the bird?
I mean, You know, we got word

241
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,500
from it that it was coming and
then all of a sudden I was like,

242
00:14:43,500 --> 00:14:45,700
oh he's gonna be in Blacksburg
because it's okay.

243
00:14:45,700 --> 00:14:48,800
Well, and then the big thing
that I saw in the big thing that

244
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:53,100
I love about Hokie nation in
general, is that we're a very

245
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:59,400
aware fan base of both
situations that are going on and

246
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,200
how much it matters to the
program.

247
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,500
So I mean, you saw the entire
community of Blacksburg pouring

248
00:15:05,500 --> 00:15:07,600
on love for this guy.
They know how much this guy

249
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,800
could mean to our our program.
And They acted accordingly.

250
00:15:11,900 --> 00:15:15,900
And that's, that's outside of
the school and the coaches and

251
00:15:15,900 --> 00:15:17,100
everything else.
I'm talking about.

252
00:15:17,100 --> 00:15:21,900
Just the community, you got
signs everywhere, handmade and

253
00:15:21,900 --> 00:15:23,700
everything.
So, I mean, they were showing

254
00:15:23,700 --> 00:15:25,900
this guy, some love, and like I
said, that's what I appreciate

255
00:15:25,900 --> 00:15:29,600
about our fan base is that they
are so self-aware with things

256
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,100
like that.
They understand, you know,

257
00:15:32,100 --> 00:15:34,600
recruiting to a point and they
understand the at least the

258
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,400
importance of getting somebody
like him to come to Blacksburg

259
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:39,800
and that's that's what I love to
see.

260
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,100
And By all accounts.
It seems like he had a good

261
00:15:43,100 --> 00:15:45,200
time.
Loves Blacksburg loves the loves

262
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:50,000
the coaching staff loves the
feel of Lane, so I'm just, I'm

263
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,200
hoping that we can close the
deal with them.

264
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:57,000
Obviously, I think with him and
with Tony and we're going to get

265
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,400
the bigger, the bigger push is
obviously because we've got some

266
00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,000
really blue blood programs that
are going after both of those

267
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:10,600
guys, absolutely really hard.
But I'm hoping that that The

268
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,300
family aspect that we've been
talking about and the fact that

269
00:16:13,300 --> 00:16:16,300
we can take advantage of some of
his versatility in our offense

270
00:16:16,300 --> 00:16:18,900
that we've been talking about.
I'm hoping those two things come

271
00:16:18,900 --> 00:16:22,200
to fruition and we can really
get him into Blacksburg and I

272
00:16:22,208 --> 00:16:23,800
think he can really be something
special.

273
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:29,600
Yeah, yeah, agreed with that
again, like I said, last episode

274
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:34,000
the options there for him and
Tony the options are going to be

275
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,600
there to come in and compete and
possibly get a starting job

276
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,300
right away.
Now, one thing I thought was so

277
00:16:40,300 --> 00:16:44,200
cool, And give credit again it's
the it's the building its some

278
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,500
of the foundational pieces that
are being built.

279
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,900
But some of the photos and the
photo ops that lane were cool in

280
00:16:50,900 --> 00:16:53,500
the coolest one.
I know I sent it to you was that

281
00:16:53,500 --> 00:16:56,700
picture of him and pointed.
They look like you can tell

282
00:16:56,700 --> 00:16:59,900
every kind of Chad and walking
back down the tunnel in black

283
00:16:59,900 --> 00:17:01,600
and white.
Oh, yeah, I don't know who

284
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,400
captured that but that's one of
those cool things.

285
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,900
You don't know what's being said
there, but it's one of those

286
00:17:05,900 --> 00:17:10,300
things where it there was no
other.

287
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,400
Coaches around.
There were no other players not

288
00:17:13,599 --> 00:17:16,800
you know, none of his family
that looked like one of those

289
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:22,300
walks of was he was it a picture
of the program there and I mean,

290
00:17:22,300 --> 00:17:25,200
the pit the picture, definitely
it spoke to a lot of people.

291
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:27,099
I think that was the one that I
think was shared around the

292
00:17:27,099 --> 00:17:28,800
most.
Like I say, you shared it with

293
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,000
me specifically, even though I
had already seen kind of the

294
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,400
collage that have been shared
earlier, so I was like, yeah,

295
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,100
that that one, that one
definitely speaks louder than

296
00:17:37,100 --> 00:17:38,900
some of the other ones.
The other ones are, you know,

297
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,800
you got your typical, okay?
With the with the fam and the

298
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:45,900
coaching staff and you got your,
you know, you've let your padded

299
00:17:45,900 --> 00:17:48,200
up glamour shots.
But that one you just kind of

300
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,200
its spoke a little bit little
bit more.

301
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:54,200
It felt like it wasn't a stage
like the other ones were.

302
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,900
It wasn't like we gathered
everybody together to take the

303
00:17:56,900 --> 00:17:59,600
picture or hey, you know, we're
going to get you in front of the

304
00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:02,900
backdrop of the always try to
go.

305
00:18:02,900 --> 00:18:06,800
It's north-south was a t stands.
Yeah.

306
00:18:06,900 --> 00:18:09,900
The non student section stand,
that's what I can consider.

307
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,900
And they're cool, but that
looked like it was one of those

308
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:15,300
off-the-cuff moments like, Hey,
we're going to go back to the

309
00:18:15,300 --> 00:18:18,700
office and and it's like eight,
mom and dad.

310
00:18:18,900 --> 00:18:20,300
You guys, they're going to tour
you around.

311
00:18:20,300 --> 00:18:23,100
But I'm gonna go with coach and
it's just kind of like whoever

312
00:18:23,100 --> 00:18:26,600
was there was like, they're
saying stuff, click capture and

313
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,100
time, maybe it's maybe it's
maybe wouldn't if he signs that,

314
00:18:30,300 --> 00:18:36,500
you know, to letter of intent
that that should be The one with

315
00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:39,100
the letter of intent, that's
there for our folks.

316
00:18:39,700 --> 00:18:44,000
So I did not get to watch the
basketball game last night.

317
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:47,700
Did you catch any of the
unfortunate loss to my watch?

318
00:18:47,900 --> 00:18:50,000
I watched a little bit of it
last night.

319
00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:53,900
I was able to get the sum of the
first half in a little bit of

320
00:18:53,900 --> 00:18:58,900
the second half, you know, just
in general, it was one of those

321
00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:02,400
classic, hockey games in the
back half of the of the Year

322
00:19:03,300 --> 00:19:05,700
where we saw that the threes not
Fallen.

323
00:19:05,700 --> 00:19:09,900
It's going to be a long night
and we had some of the similar

324
00:19:09,900 --> 00:19:13,200
struggles and I credit to North
Carolina because they did look

325
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,900
more like what I thought they
would have looked earlier in the

326
00:19:16,900 --> 00:19:20,000
year and I think some of that is
just finally getting healthy a

327
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,100
little bit as the season wraps
up.

328
00:19:22,100 --> 00:19:26,100
But as far as just barometer and
how I feel about the whole

329
00:19:26,100 --> 00:19:29,500
situation, I mean, I think
overall we have a success for

330
00:19:29,500 --> 00:19:31,700
year.
One of the Mike young error

331
00:19:31,700 --> 00:19:36,100
because I don't think I mean
nobody thought 16. 16 was who's

332
00:19:36,100 --> 00:19:39,200
going to be something that this
team could achieve that started

333
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,700
the season as they started
pumping.

334
00:19:41,700 --> 00:19:44,100
Some of the Winds earlier, I
think, we probably recalibrated

335
00:19:44,100 --> 00:19:46,800
our expectations, probably a
little higher than they should

336
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:51,100
have been and success.
Does that, I mean, we've done

337
00:19:51,100 --> 00:19:54,500
that many times in football
before we have a success out of

338
00:19:54,500 --> 00:19:58,300
the gate and we recalibrate and
then we get our hearts ripped

339
00:19:58,300 --> 00:20:00,800
out a little bit.
So I think the husband we're

340
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,300
hoping nation was was with some
of this at the back habits that

341
00:20:04,300 --> 00:20:08,100
you know When once you
recalibrated those expectations,

342
00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:10,500
those losses heard a little bit
more and a little bit more.

343
00:20:10,500 --> 00:20:13,500
And you got to say, okay, let's
let's take that that red pill

344
00:20:13,500 --> 00:20:19,800
and you back to reality a little
bit completely agree, man.

345
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,100
I think 16 and 16 for the Mike
young or great start.

346
00:20:23,100 --> 00:20:25,200
Very young team, very small
team.

347
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,800
The way you feel, the only guy
potentially could leave his

348
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:33,600
Landers, nollie and in just
think Landers I think what it

349
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,400
showed with him this year I
think he's Great player, but I

350
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,600
think being the man, the grind
got to him.

351
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:44,900
And if for no other reason, He
should stay in for one reason.

352
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,700
Dude, you go out there and prove
that you can lead a team for 30

353
00:20:48,700 --> 00:20:51,900
games and be the man for 30
games without falling off.

354
00:20:51,900 --> 00:20:55,500
Because of essentially what it
is is you're 19 years old and

355
00:20:55,500 --> 00:20:59,200
you're the man, you are the man
on a college, you know, division

356
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:03,000
one basketball team in a major
conference, he think that's

357
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,500
good.
Toby comes back.

358
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:13,000
All right, so this is a little
preview guys, the 20th day.

359
00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:19,100
Or spring ball starts.
We are going to be doing a

360
00:21:19,700 --> 00:21:22,800
centrally call it a grade when
we doing a position preview

361
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,100
episodes, we're going to hit
every position.

362
00:21:26,900 --> 00:21:29,600
We're going to give our
individual grades of where we

363
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:34,400
feel the position is before
Spring ball in there.

364
00:21:34,500 --> 00:21:39,800
I'm putting the Highlight on
that before Spring ball because

365
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:46,000
clearly you have the guys would
be coming in with Recruiting and

366
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,500
clearly, you know, like the
cornerback position this year,

367
00:21:48,500 --> 00:21:53,800
we'll talk about it more but our
top three corners will not be at

368
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:58,600
Spring practice, which is, which
is big, but some opportunities.

369
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,400
There are definitely some
opportunities and especially

370
00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,600
when we're talking about
building, not just for 2020, but

371
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,900
building going forward, I mean,
obviously get get these guys

372
00:22:07,900 --> 00:22:11,800
more reps against, you know,
ones and twos versus like,

373
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,900
practice squad or anything.
Like Like that that's going to

374
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:15,900
that's going to pay dividends
down the road.

375
00:22:15,900 --> 00:22:18,700
So getting as many of those guys
out there as possible is going

376
00:22:18,700 --> 00:22:23,400
to be good and I think you know
what we want to do with this

377
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,800
episode is really kind of give
you a essentially, take the

378
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:31,100
temperature where we think the
depth is right now before we get

379
00:22:31,100 --> 00:22:35,800
any sort of on the field
reactions from Spring ball, from

380
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,700
Spring practice or anything like
that.

381
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:42,700
And and enroll into spring
practice with a little bit of

382
00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,700
Little bit of energy because we
can we can kind of feel good

383
00:22:45,700 --> 00:22:50,000
about about where I think some
of the spots are on this roster

384
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,400
and you know, there's going to
be a couple that were probably

385
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,800
going to highlight that are that
were either unsure about or feel

386
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,700
a little sketchy about.
But I think, I think we're going

387
00:22:58,700 --> 00:23:01,200
to really give you guys
something to look forward to

388
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,800
with that.
Absolutely.

389
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,000
As a question also will be when
we scream at each other, then

390
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,800
this episode, when I give a bad
grade in your football knowledge

391
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,200
is like you're a moron care of
this.

392
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,600
Hey, maybe we'll see.
You will see.

393
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,900
It depends on.
It depends on physical health.

394
00:23:15,900 --> 00:23:17,900
How egregious we go there, man?
All right.

395
00:23:17,900 --> 00:23:20,900
Brian, you've got something.
You want to invite our listeners

396
00:23:20,900 --> 00:23:22,700
to so go for it.
Big guy.

397
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,100
Alright well me and Curtis for
probably what about going about

398
00:23:27,100 --> 00:23:30,300

us pretty easy.

430
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:15,900
Man.
It's like you hit 30 and all of

431

earlier about spring break, the
poll question this week little

433
00:25:25,700 --> 00:25:29,400
little fun.
What is your go to hangover?

434
00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:33,800
Cure, no medicine involved.
And the selections are the hair

435
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:39,700
of the dog case.
Gatorade some good greasy food

436
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,600
or just let me sleep all day.
Don't bother me.

437
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,800
Xiaomi and me and Brian will be
voting on that Curtis.

438
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,500
What's your hair of the dog?
What's your go-to hair of the

439
00:25:51,500 --> 00:25:53,400
dog?
Whatever.

440
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:57,500
I was drinking the night before
he got to trick the body, okay?

441
00:25:57,500 --> 00:26:01,100
So whatever it was of you, if
you drinking Coors you go and

442
00:26:01,100 --> 00:26:03,000
course he finally course you can
drink.

443
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,000
Exactly.
Let's loot, let's do a little

444
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,600
Jack and Coke start today, that
whatever you had.

445
00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,700
You have to get what you have
back in you.

446
00:26:09,700 --> 00:26:14,200
Because if not, you're risking
the body, Acting is.

447
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:19,000
You don't have very dangerous.
Personally, I always felt like

448
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,400
it was stages.
There was some things just do

449
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:22,400
that.
Some are you need?

450
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,300
Gatorade, some greasy food
somewhere.

451
00:26:24,300 --> 00:26:25,600
Just the nights where it's,
like, listen.

452
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:30,400
I need to sleep like till 5:00,
nobody, but so, but if I wake up

453
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,500
with just the headache, if I've
got the pounding headache, let

454
00:26:32,500 --> 00:26:36,000
me go ahead and pound some
Gatorade, that usually what you

455
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,300
did and what you have to do that
day.

456
00:26:38,300 --> 00:26:40,300
So what's the go to Gatorade for
you though?

457
00:26:40,300 --> 00:26:42,500
What's the go to Gatorade?
You get you go.

458
00:26:44,100 --> 00:26:45,500
Are you doing them in line?
Now?

459
00:26:45,500 --> 00:26:49,600
Usually, when a lot of orange,
see, I see as I got older, I

460
00:26:49,608 --> 00:26:53,000
felt like lemon, lime, orange
and even read would give me

461
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,000
terrible heartburn.
So I always felt the blue, was

462
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:56,500
the better one to go with?
Okay.

463
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:59,500
Awesome.
Stick and blue stick and blew it

464
00:26:59,500 --> 00:27:01,000
with the blue.
Awesome.
