Welcome to the Boneyard with Steve Robertson. As always, I am your good friend and host Steve Robertson here on the magnificent Monday edition of the yard.

I hope you're well today. Hope you had a good weekend. Busy weekend here, working through final edits for the dude, and got a lot of the books already off to typesetting.

You know, so I don't know 24, 48 hours away from everything being completely out of our hands

And we expect him to be a big part of things this year.

So we had the interview with Blake Chapin right after he committed.

That was his first public statement about the commitment to Mississippi State.

And then Justin Framer went down to Tibodeau, Louisiana, to Nicol State,

and interviewed Blake as part of the Manning Passing Academy Media opportunity down there.

And so Blake will step to the podium
