Let's circle back to Travis Hunter. So Coach Prime thinks he'll find it easier to succeed in
both positions in the NFL. Do you guys agree with that? Do you guys think that he'll be
better as just a two way player? Because he's saying that like him being on the sideline will
just make him less, you know, less jittery stuff like that. Oh, I, I don't know Travis as
far as his play go, I see him more as a corner in spot play duty at the receiver
position. It's hard. I mean, it's gonna be hard to play 100 players in the national
football league. It's just, it's just hard now and I don't think because of the investment
that would have to go into it. RJ, that they would want to invest that type of money in a
risk sport. When what I mean by risk sport, risk of injury or any little thing happening
that you're paying a handsome ransom to not take full advantage of it. I just think that
full time as AD V part-time 15 plays, 20 plays , maybe a game on the offensive side of the
ball. RJ, I tend to agree. I, I tend to agree. I also didn't think that he could
play both ways at the power four level the way he is doing it. And one of the things I think
makes him interesting and I think an actual threat is that he is on the field for every
game, every snap. So, if you bring him in on third down, right, let's say you bring him in
on third and long situation to play wide receiver. Well, we know where the ball's going
or we know where you want the ball. You, we, we, you, you think, you know what we want to do.
You think, you know those things? I didn't say we had to get him into football. He may just be
on the field to draw the eyeball, eye candy. You can just use him as eye candy. Let me, let
me ask it this way. You gonna be comfortable being a decoy. Well, he's gonna have to be
comfortable. I don't think he will be, he's the best. I think that's part of the E Yeah,
but, but, but there are guys in the national football league that are paid to play wide
receiver that are pretty fucking good that are really good at the receiver position. Are there
any? It's a little bit, you know, it's not, it's not apples to apples. It's a little bit
different in the NFL versus college football. I know he's playing 100 plus plays a game. It's
just so different. You can't lolly gag in the national football league at corner
because they decided they're not throwing your weight. So you kind of just resting, so to
speak, to go on the offensive side of the ball that don't work in the NFL. Let me, let me ask
you this way cause I think you're making a great point that I really would like you to
unpack having played that position for so long if you know that you got Travis playing
primarily corner, but he out here basically effectively running gassers as a wide receiver.
Are you more inclined to want to line up on that man? Are you more inclined to wanna go
after him as a corner? But he doesn't have to run gassers? I didn't say he had to run deep.
He could line up in certain situations and certain packages and he can run a hitch, he can
run a slant, he can run a scene. He, it's different, different things that we can do with
him. We don't have to bring him in and put the football in his hands. You don't, you don't
have, there's many guys in the league that or somewhat cardboard cutouts and decoys
again, I must say this. They pay $35 million plus
for Justin Jefferson, they're not taking the ball out of Justin Jefferson's hands to give it
to Travis Hunter. They're just not going to do that. That's just now, will they implement
some things in the game plan that will allow him to maybe touch the football
here and there on the offensive side of the ball? Of course, they are because they wouldn't
be smart if they had a dynamic player like that, that they didn't take advantage of in
certain situations. But he ain't, he ain't cutting into Jamar Chase's money. It ain't
gonna happen. It's just the league, they're not gonna do it. Who's the last person that has
had like a full package type of like maybe not even prime,
prime got his opportunities to touch a screen here or slant there or go around here or post
there in the Super Bowl. I mean, just, you know, they toyed with it, you know, uh, uh, uh,
uh, Charles Woodson toyed with it. Champ Bailey toyed with it a little bit. They're not,
they're not going to, it's like me, I played in the two minute at the safety position. They
wasn't leaving me out there now. If they wanted to leave me out there for the entire
game to play safety, I probably could have done it, but it would have taken away from my
offense. It just would have. So they said, you know what, in these special situations we can
utilize him in on the defensive side of the ball, which is fine. I don't, you know, because
I was an offensive player. I wasn't, if I would have played defense, I think I still
would have been pretty good if I'd have been a solid defensive player, been pretty fucking
good. But you know, me as a receiver. So you never even in your mind think that growing up,
all I did was play in the secondary. I didn't start playing receiver RJ. I didn't start
playing receiver until my senior year of high school. I believe it. No, I believe it because
II I believe it because that's what we do in, in high school. We take the athlete, we put
them on defense like it's I coached high school football, right? We had a, a fellow by
the name of demarco Cobb, Demarco Cobb played quarterback for me and I was told by head coach
and I move him to wide receiver. Why? Because we got guys that can throw the football. We
don't have 6 ft 42, 10 on the freshman team, throw that man at football. And I said he want
to play quarterback and they didn't listen to me. He transferred to Central. He ends up at
Texas playing linebacker where he was started for four years. The point there being I don't
know who let you or I should say how you got to be a wide receiver. I am happy to know that
you became a wide receiver, but I also know there's a lot more money in playing wide
receiver than there is in playing safety. Yeah , I just uh DB just wasn't, I don't know, it was,
it was more just receiver. Do you remember Juju Smith at Long Beach Polly when he was a
safety? I thought he was going to be like the best safety. He could, he could have, he could
have been the best safety in the country and been a high pick as a safety, receiver, safety.
If you're that big, you can do it.
