A Super Talk Mississippi Media Production.

In the Valley of the Sun this Saturday night, and I do mean night here in the Central Time Zone Mississippi State and Arizona State on

the call for ESPN Mark Jones and Roddy Jones Roddy joins me now former Georgia Tech

running back played I guess you played here in Starville 2009 is that right I did yeah it was on that

oh nine team you guys came out a little different defensively expected a little bit of a

slog for a while we had a good team that year though so it was a great trip. So when you when you work with

Mark how many the sources do you have to go through to keep up with him because that

guy will break out what I call a manease word pretty quick on you man. He likes the big words.

He does. He threw out pressed the digitation last week and I am not going to lie. Like I have no, my pride is not too big to admit without the context clues of how he used it.

I had no idea what Preston digitation meant.

So I try it. He keeps you my toes with that you know we've got something planned for the rest of the year where when he throws out one of those words we're gonna have some fun with it

But you know it's a it's a super interesting story and it kind of goes back to his youth. He told me a story a few years ago, I believe it goes his grandfather or his grandparents wouldn't let him either go out and play or there was some reward that he got after he learned a new word in the dictionary.

And so like over the course of years, you know, he went through the whole dictionary basically so he's got a

recall unlike anybody that I've ever worked with and yeah those the words are lofty but they're

they're so well placed and when you look up and learn the definition

like wow that fit perfectly and that was a better descriptor than I ever could have had so I certainly learn a lot.

That's really cool. So this question might not work in the

transfer portal era. You know when you played at Georgia Tech right there was

always somebody on the team or maybe it was you that when you travel to Clemson or to

Virginia or North Carolina like you know how that trip's going to go right

because you've been there before is it does a new environment like this Mississippi

states never played at Arizona State.
