I've rolled out uni because I want to live at home.

I've ruled out uni because I want to earn money.

I've ruled out uni because of my grades.

Study with the Open University and there's no need to rule out anything.

We're open to all. Plus, you'll have the support of expert tutors. So rethink your

future with the degree you didn't think was possible. The Open University. The future is open. Recruiting story time. We love when we get the athletes on and we save these questions for a one-off episode. We usually do it once, sometimes twice a year, getting the origin story of so many of the athletes of today.

Brock Purdy, a three-star recruit coming out of high school,

played his college ball at Iowa State,

and now after a guy we were like,

he's going to be the starting quarterback in San Francisco,

just signed a five-year deal.

Before we let you go, I always like going back to the high school days and getting these

recruiting stories from you.

So let's go back to what, Gilbert, Arizona and you thinking back to probably the best

recruiting story that you have from that time.

Man, I think, you know, I got offer, I got a preferred walk on to Alabama,

and then they ended up extending it as an offer.

And so I took an official visit there.

And, you know, we walk in to have our meeting with Sabin,

and, you know, he has the button that he presses, the door opens, and it closes, and then you walk in, you sit down, and he sort of just gave me, like, a run of, you know, what he thinks of me as a player and where I'd fit in with their program and stuff.

I mean, you've probably heard the stories of how he said I was sort of average in all those areas. But if you come here, you know, you could help us win a national championship. And I'm like, all right. So I didn't really know how I felt about the meeting, but more than any other. Did you not believe him? Like, did you not believe him when he said that to you? No, when he's saying all that stuff, I'm like, dude, what? Like, my highlights and everything in high school, I think they're pretty good. You know, like, I thought I was accurate and making plays and like, how did you not see that? But, I mean, obviously he's been recruiting and evaluating players for his whole life. So, I mean, he knows

something and he's good at it. So, but anyways, as a kid or like a high school kid, I was like,
