Got it.

So in fall 2008, and I was, uh, going through the, uh, interview process and the vetting, and I got through everything, and they were gonna hire me as an investment advisor representative, an IAR, and I was...

It was in Pasadena.

I was driving there that day.

I got a phone call as I was driving, said, "We're doing a hiring freeze.

We're not hiring anybody else." And I'm like, "Oh, oh." [laughs]

Mm-hmm.

And, uh, what I'm doing is feeding the, um, the quote to AI.

Tell me what you think Texas Tech will have if Brendan Swordsby is their quarterback this season.

Diplomatically, and he is not my favorite cut of quarterback, you did mention the size.

That is great.

Not a lot of these guys coming out have, um, let's just say weight over 220 pounds, and he's got 15 or 20 pounds over that threshold.

He's 6'3", you know, he's got that prototypical size.

But from where I sit, from where they're getting, they're getting a natural thrower who has a very high floor type of modus operandi that limits mistakes and keeps you on a pretty good down to down standing.

So looking at things inside of structure, without play action, without RPOs, things that can distort how the defense defends you.

And, and maybe there's a wake-up call now, but tell me what you think Baylor may have with DJ Lagway.

And other folks are like, "Mm, why don't you pump your brakes?"

Yeah.

I'm, I'm more in that latter half.

I'm more let's wait and see.

He did not necessarily play the most challenging schedule last year.

Um, and he was not the most, let's say, im- impressive downfield thrower.

But when you're taking a step back and you're looking at the micro, there are still a lot of things you can like, uh, particularly in dropback situations.

Tell me what you think is possible for him.

But I'm curious, in, in your study, is he affecting offenses more than we see necessarily on the stat sheet?

Yes, because I mean, he's a 6'6, 255 pound defensive end.

This is not a 6'3, 220 off ball linebacker hybrid type of guy.

This is a true d- uh, hand in the dirt, Javon Kearse type of mold, nine technique.

So he gets up field very, very nicely.

Of course, a lot of people in, in my industry like to use the term get off, but I feel uncomfortable talking about young men getting off.

I prefer the term launch.

Princely, yeah.
