00:00Let me ask you, first and foremost, how have you been?
00:05I've been doing phenomenal.
00:06You know, I live down in Georgia.
00:09Just put my kids through the same grind I went through, you know, kids playing football.
00:14I just sent one off to college on Sunday to go and play football for Clemson.
00:18So.
00:19Congratulations.
00:20His journey has started and now I got another one in here, a 14-year-old son that's on his
00:29way to playing football as well.
00:32That's good.
00:33And I was going to ask you this actually later, but since we're on the topic, you know, your
00:36son's he committed to Clemson.
00:38He just made, I saw All-American second team offense.
00:41Like how exciting is it as a father to watch your son follow your footsteps in regards
00:45to like football?
00:46It's very exciting.
00:47You know, they're playing different positions that he plays a different position than what
00:51I played.
00:52He's a big kid, six, eight, three, 30 something around there.
00:57He's a monster kid.
01:00So it's good to, you know, sit back and watch this process of coaching from the time he
01:06was seven years old, all the way up until the 10th grade.
01:10And we did a lot of work when he told me what he wanted his goals to be.
01:14You know, I put him in a position to have to achieve those.
01:18And he said he wanted to play in the NFL.
01:20So it took him through the toughest route that he could have possibly taken to where
01:23he is now.
01:25He's ready and has been training for these moments.
01:28So I can't wait to see what he turn into.
01:31Do you think he can succeed in the NFL?
01:35Absolutely.
01:36He's a big kid with quickness.
01:37He's strong.
01:39He can bend.
01:40I definitely think he'll be one of the top guys coming out of the draft when this time
01:44comes.
