Welcome to On The Bench. I am Brendan Sonone. Good news. You're not going to hear a ton

0:14.8

from me for this podcast a little bit here and there. But this is going to be Chris

0:18.4

Need-driven. So, Christopher Neen, take the microphone and let the folks listen and

0:24.4

know what we got for them today.

0:26.5

Well, I'm excited. Marvin Jones Jr., you may know that name. He is the son of Shade Tree,

0:31.0

but on his own, he's also one of the best defense events in the country in the 2022 class

0:35.8

Town to Kid from Fort Lauderdale, American Heritage, technically plantation. But hey, who's

0:40.9

to mate? Marvin's a kid that FSU wants, but so does mostly everybody else in the country.

0:48.0

He tweeted, I don't know, a week or so ago, podcast, question mark. And I reached it on

0:52.8

today. We got a pretty good podcast. He want to come on. And I know Marvin a little bit.

0:56.1

interesting. We're going to concentrate largely on recruiting, but talk a little bit about

1:15.5

his high school season, talk a bit about family ties and any pressure that comes with

1:19.6

that. We may get into a couple other subjects. I mean, Sennown's here. He's almost certain

1:23.6

to take his off topic at some point during this conversation. But Marvin's a good kid.

1:28.1

I think you'll enjoy this conversation. We'll try to keep it short. It's probably about

1:30.9

20 minutes long. And I think I think you'll like it. There's a little bit of news in

1:37.3

there too. So so we're going to have you guys dig for that. So all right. Let's take

1:41.3

a quick commercial break on the other side. We got Marvin Jones Jr. coming up.
