Summary
I'm back from the Heisman, and I brought a friend with me to the podcast.
Friend of the pod and recruiting guru of Geaux247 Shea Dixon joins today's show to recap all the Heisman festivities and give us a break down of the 19 signees LSU landed Wednesday during the early signing period.
Shea and I were around all weekend as Joe Burrow took home the first Heisman trophy for LSU in 60 years, so we recap what that experience was like from the inside. Then, Shea breaks down LSU top-five ranked class, how it can get better, and who can make an impact early.
Hope to be back from Atlanta for a Peach Bowl preview on the 26th or 27th.

| 0:00.0 | All right and it's my pleasure to be joined by Shay Dixon of Go 24-7 today. |
| 0:55.1 | She's making my life easier because, Shea, I think you can probably relate to this. I got back, we got back Monday. When did you get back from the Heisman? Okay, so we got back Monday, and I'm still recovering. We saw each other there? That's the Jordi-Kalada line. Did we miss you up there? We hung out the whole time, man. So I'm one with Kalada this morning. Hold on. Let me adjust my levels here because they're way too high. I'm one with Kalada this morning because Teabob's in Atlanta and we're coming out of a break and Kalata goes, missed you up in New York, man. I thought for sure you would be there. And I just kind of looked at him because I thought he was messing with me because we |
| 0:58.0 | hung out at the Knickerbocker and may or may not have partaken in a beverage together. |
| 1:04.2 | So Jordy obviously had a really good time. He's still recovering. Number one in the power |
| 1:07.7 | rankings, Jordy. He was slightly embarrassed at his attire i don't know |
| 1:13.2 | if you remember you were dressed i do i do remember he was in he was just kind of in like the |
| 1:18.0 | guarantee look you know just like the polo and khaki he had like the blue like quarter zip and uh and just |
| 1:24.9 | some khaki pants but everyone else was rocking suits |
| 1:27.7 | shoes she had a good look going with the scarf and uh i think you got harry potter more |
| 1:32.3 | more than once so yeah and jordie and jordy has the picture of me so he does remember me |
| 1:37.2 | being there because he's like i got to take a picture of you then i randomly woke up on like |
| 1:40.6 | wednesday at like six a m to a t bob text of the picture so it's circulating. Yeah, you know T. Bob's a big Harry Potter guy, so I'm sure, I'm sure he enjoyed that. I was saying, like, I'm still recovering. It's Thursday. It's 11 o'clock, and the reason I wanted to get you on, one was a talk signing day because you're the expert there. as i've moved over at ls u i've just |
| 2:01.5 | followed recruiting less and less because i can't talk about these guys until they sign so i want to |
| 2:05.1 | lean on you for that but the other part is i got back monday i got in the office tuesday with |
| 2:09.6 | plans to just kind of record a podcast by myself and play some joe clips and like i just couldn't do it |
| 2:14.8 | i couldn't string together thoughts. I couldn't think. |
| 2:22.6 | It's Thursday. Like I'm still dragging pretty hard just because for me, |
| 2:27.4 | experiencing Heisman weekend and you were there and I'd like to get your opinion on it. |
| 2:32.1 | It was crazy. It was awesome. It was unforgettable. Once in a lifetime opportunity. But basically I followed Joe around for three or four days. And I don't know how he did it because by a midday Sunday, you can ask the guys we were with. I crashed. Like about noon on Sunday. Like I just ran out of energy or we're walking around New York City after Joe knocks out his last couple of interviews. And they're just kind of looking at me like, are you okay, dude? Like, you look like you could use like a nap or something. And we go to five guys, and I order a milkshake at five guys because I'm like, all right, some sugar is going to get me through this. And they don't give me my milkshake. Like, they forgot to make it. And normally I'm the type of guy that's just like, cool, whatever, like, I'll wait. |
| 3:08.7 | And apparently I just threw it like a temper tantrum, like started kicking garbage cans and saying |
| 3:13.4 | inappropriate words that aren't good for the podcast. But just energy wise, I was, I was totally |
| 3:19.6 | dragging. And I don't know how Joe did it. Super impressive. What was your experience of Heisman weekend? Did you have that crash like me or did you rally a little bit better than I did? No, I had the crash. I mean, we got there on Thursday. You were in Atlanta still with college football awards. And we went out that night. And that was probably the only night because it was before the Heisman festivities began |
