Hey, Fighting Tigers, Fight all the way.

All right, welcome into another edition of Hey Fightin' Podcast.

Harrison Valentine joined in studio this time by the SEC

Network to Peter Burns.

Last time we chatted, we were over Zoom.

So, Peter, great to have you in studio with us here in the podcast lounge.

I felt like, you know, when like the VIPs come in town, I'm definitely not one of those.

You've given me the whole tour, and I'm blown away because, you know, I was just telling the guys here in studio, we launched the SEC Network in 2014, and we would come through and see all the facilities. Yeah. And this now is like a different world. Yes. I want to. I've never felt older than like coming into a place now and being like all these bells and whistles and I mean

you guys are at the forefront of it's I just gave you a modified tour of the brand uh what are your

thoughts after seeing that uh again a I'm old um and the fact of you know just seeing all the technology

that that people can do because it you know I kind of discuss it there's an arms

race at any point whether it's women's volleyball or golf or I just saw beth terena talking with

softball and of course football at the core of that of how do you differentiate yourself from

everybody else yeah everybody let's talk football. Everybody has an

opportunity. If you play good, you put the film on, you can take it to the next level and play in the

NFL. But now to see this type stuff of going, it's bigger than just how good your weight

room or how good's your recovery room. It's what can you do beyond that? And that's why this stuff is pretty

mind-blowing about your thinking of it, a strategic approach of it's not only just LSU, but it's

the brand outside of it. That's become the most powerful brand in all of college athletics.

I saw on your Instagram story last night that you were at Phil's Oyster Bar.

You're from Baton Rouge, right?

Do you have any non-negotiables, any must-haves, any places that you have to go to when you're back in town?
