| 0:00.0 | All right, we're joined for the first time by my man coach Carl Reed. He's a college football |
| 0:07.1 | analyst for 24 seven sports. We all know it. The go to site for college football recruiting |
| 0:14.0 | and analysis. And he goes by coach read live on Twitter. And he is also former head coach |
| 0:21.3 | Lutheran North. And he won a state title in 2019. So coach, thank you so much for joining |
| 0:28.0 | me. I appreciate you. All thanks for having me, man. I'm honored to be here. |
| 0:32.4 | I'm just very curious about your journey. And how does someone go from winning a state title? |

| 1:34.4 | know, I really wanted to ask you about that. Are you on a mission to keep it positive? But at the same |
