00:00 - You know, maybe Lane has revolutionized
00:02 blending coaching with social media awareness.
00:07 What are you, just your take on that?
00:09 - He's great at it.
00:09 You know, I look at Coach Kiffin in that as
00:14 he just doesn't care.
00:15 I mean, I don't know, I can't speak for the man,
00:17 but I mean, if he, somebody says something,
00:20 he'll come right back on.
00:21 I bet it don't bother him an ounce.
00:23 If he wants to make a joke on there about something,
00:27 I think he's special.
00:30 I mean, he has a special gift there
00:32 that I don't think it bothers him.
00:34 And it might, I don't want to speak for him.
00:37 But,
00:42 Mike Leach,
00:47 he had a special gift
00:50 of
00:52 after the game,
00:55 whether he won or lost.
00:57 I mean, he was like, well, we prepared.
01:00 I don't know what he was inside,
01:02 but it was like, well, we prepared,
01:04 we did the best we could.
01:06 That government Samuel,
01:07 when Mr. Phil go,
01:09 now I'm going to go on social media and say,
01:11 it's open tryouts.
01:12 You know what I mean?
01:13 And he just had a gift.
01:17 And I would watch him when I watched TV coming off
01:21 and after losses, I mean, he'd be so nice, you know?
01:26 I mean, we're all nice, but you know what I mean?
01:28 Like genuine, proud, happy for you, all this,
01:32 we got to play better, whatever it might be.
01:34 To me, Lane's got that same ability with social media.
01:39 And instead of fighting it, he just goes with it.
01:43 And, you know, obviously I wish I had that ability.
01:46 I don't.
01:48 But I respect how he handles all that.
01:54 And, you know, he takes some jabs and things of that nature.
01:56 And I think it's all in good nature, though.
01:59 - You have it with us.
02:00 You have that ability with us.
