| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the state of recruiting, the biweekly this week, Orange 24-7 recruiting podcast. Sometimes we're once a week, sometimes we're bi-weekly, and in this great time of coronavirus, we're going to come to you as often as we can, so we don't be on a set schedule, but we are going to try to get some questions in every week. I'm Mike Roach. I'm joined as always by Nick Harris. Nick, |
| 0:37.9 | thanks for joining me. Yeah, absolutely. We're kind of here and there right now, but hopefully more so |
| 0:41.9 | of there. Yeah, and I think that's kind of what we'll see this episode. We ask for questions. |
| 0:47.8 | We get it. There's not a lot new going on. So guys, if I ask for questions and you want to ask us |
| 0:52.7 | silly things or what our favorite |
| 0:54.8 | restaurants are or stories from the road, any of that stuff, we're down willing to talk about, |
| 1:00.3 | you know, just about anything at this point. But we are going to answer the reader questions |
| 1:06.7 | over on the Horns 24-7 message board. We'll talk a little bit. But Nick, how are you, how's the quarantine going for you? Oh, it's going pretty good. I tried to go out to something today, but they canceled it last night at the last minute, so I thought I was going to get some last minute content, but now just social distancing, I guess. Yeah, it's probably a good idea. I mean, you know, I don't, we're not experts at this thing and I don't want to come on here and preach like we are, but, you know, to see the videos like these kids at Spring Break that are just like, yeah, we'll party, man, and if we get it's so ridiculous. It's insane. And like, people are, don't realize, like, if this thing prolongs, we're going to lose football. |
| 1:46.5 | And I get that that's a very small thing in a lot of people's minds. |
| 1:50.5 | But, like, it's a serious situation. |
| 1:54.3 | And people who aren't taking it seriously are, you know, it just drives me insane. |
| 1:58.7 | If I'm going to sit in my house all day long, you know, it bothers me that there are people who are just disregarding it now at the beach, but that's America. I guess that's what we kind of signed up for. I will say this. I did get out and take my dog for a walk today. And it's amazing what that will do, just to kind of change your perception. Yeah, absolutely. You get some fresh air. I've seen a lot of kids riding their bikes around my neighborhood, playing basketball out of the street, stuff like that. Like, kids don't play like that anymore. I will say I did see a full-on seven-on-seven football game going on about four hours ago outside, and I almost just kind of sat and watched |
| 2:34.3 | because the only football we're we'll be getting until August probably and that's awesome though |
| 2:39.5 | right because kids don't really play outside anymore you know and and so like I guess one good |
| 2:44.2 | side effect of this is that that's happened and you know I got out took my dog around and we had a |
| 2:49.4 | good walk and so I would challenge you guys to get out and get some fresh air and go take your dog or something for a walk if you need to. |
| 2:57.4 | Here's something, so I've been talking to college coaches. |
| 3:00.3 | They're very bored right now. |
| 3:02.3 | And so they're very much into talking right now. |
| 3:06.1 | I've been talking to them just about kind of how this coronavirus |
| 3:08.9 | is going to change the cycle and just in their minds. And one guy I talked to said he is pretty |
| 3:18.0 | dead sure that this is going to be a lot more of a regional class in that a lot of guys are going to stick |
