John Savage

really, really hard.

That's where John Savage for me, Berkey, is really like because, you know, again, I'm a classic overthinker.

And like my brain just starts running when I'm watching sports like these weekends.

And then I was thinking, man, like if you're Dabo Sweeney, like what's an example of baseball of a coach that did regain their form to your point? And I like the only the name that was top of mind for me was John Savage.

where like it's, you know, like the last two years and Omaha being number one wire to wire until the postseason where they had really fallen off.

That was really interesting to me.

So when I brag on UCLA, it's not because Ryan turned down some great offers from some great schools.

He ran into a coach at UCLA, Coach John Savage, who told Ryan what was going to happen.

It's exactly what happened.

He never wavered from what he said would happen.

Plus I think it's important in the recruiting process.

Again, when I was getting recruited, I saw John Savage, who was at, uh, University of Nevada and then US- USC at that time.

This is, this is 20-something years ago.

Dave Serrano, who's, I consider, like, my, my, uh, mentor and someone I try to pattern myself after.
