Transcript

[Marcel Reed]

I'm one of the best players in the country.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Do you want to date Sonny Lee?

[Marcel Reed]

I can't. I don't.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That's. It's not a no, guys.

[Marcel Reed]

Michael Jordan's probably playing me, my coaches in the meeting room and they always laugh at me when I say I would have been in the NBA. I always shoot like at the end of the meetings.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yo, yo, yo. Welcome to out of pocket with RG3, hosted by your boy and the lovely, amazing, 100 time all American, Grunte Griffin. That's right. Make sure y' all like and subscribe to our YouTube channel. Go find us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, like our page. Review our page and listen. Go follow us on social media too, because we're going to have all the hottest stories and all the greatest conversations. Today we have a very, very, very special episode for you. I'm talking about the man who. Let's read this bio because he's got some great things. The first freshman and the first black quarterback to start at 10. Time TSSAA state championship, Montgomery Belt Academy in Nashville, Tennessee. How he got to College Station, Texas, I have no idea. But this man is incredible. He's a Heisman Trophy candidate. He is the leader of the Texas A and M Aggies. I'm talking about the one and only Marcel Reed. What's up, everybody? Sir, before we get rolling on this conversation, I just want to ask you, you good? I saw you. I saw you trying to get jiggy with it in the open field and you rolled the ankle a little bit in your last game. How you feeling?

[Marcel Reed]

I feel good. I'm fine. I think I just got a little scared in the moment. Yeah, I rolled my ankle and then my knee kind of hyper extended on me. So, you know, that's not a great feeling.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Right? Right.

[Marcel Reed]

Especially in the first quarter. But yeah, I got back up, started running again. I was fine.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah, you look. You look great. And we look forward to seeing you go out there and get jiggy with it in the College Football Playoff. You ready to start this bad boy?

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I'm ready. Let's get to opening drive.

My first question to you is or statement? You are a coach's kid.

[Marcel Reed]

Yes.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Your dad coached at Tennessee State. We talked to Shiloh, Shadur Dion. Tell us how. How did you handle the pressure of growing up as a coach's kid? Or what did it teach you about the leadership?

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, no, I really didn't have too much pressure. It was kind of fun being a coach's kid. I tell people all the time that when I was, you know, younger, I would be traveling with my father all the time to go to college games and I'd be in the bus with him. So I've been in this environment for a really long time. I've been in the meeting rooms with him. I've been in pregame meals and I've been at the pregame warmups and all types of stuff like that. So growing up in that environment was definitely, you know, it makes it easier to come into college and, you know, play collegiate football at this level because, you know, I felt like I've been there before, so it wasn't hard. I didn't have too much pressure. Obviously, he was a hard and kind of tough dad and coach for me. But, you know, I feel like it definitely shaped me to be this person I am right now, and I appreciate him for it a lot.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Do you feel like you were judged differently because you were the coach's son? That's when we, we brought on Shiloh and Shadir and they talked about how, you know, because of who our dad was and how hard he was on us as coaches, it kind of made people look at us a different way. Did you feel that same type of pressure being a coach's kid?

[Marcel Reed]

I don't think I ever felt that type of pressure. I think my dad kind of did a really good job at putting me in position to where I guess everybody was at a level to where they kind of felt somewhat the same amount of pressure as I did. And, you know, we all looked at each other the same. And I played for a lot of teams where my coaches were really hard on me. So it wasn't any different from what my dad was putting on me. And yeah, I mean, there was no pressure at all. Nobody ever looked at me differently. I was the same kid I am right now, and all my friends still look at me the same.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

When it comes to boots, you can tell the difference between shoes built for a season and quality shoes built for life.

What would you say to the people at home who try to make their kids specialize too early?

[Marcel Reed]

I'd say let them play every sport they want to play. My parents let me play all the sports in the world and they took me everywhere I wanted to go. I played in Cooperstown, which is a, you know, very nice venue for baseball as young kids. And I did, you know, all the AAU circuits and basketball. So my parents, you know, did a lot in that aspect of sports. My dad really didn't care which sport I played. He thought baseball was my best sport. Basketball is my favorite sport. And then, you know, football. I just really love the environment of football, love the kind of the team aspect of football. So I don't think, you know, I would have been able to get away from it coming into college.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Who do you think your basketball game most resembled? Who'd you look up to?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, okay.

[Marcel Reed]

So when I was, when I was younger, you know, I really wanted to be Russell Westbrook.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, okay.

[Marcel Reed]

I was, I'm a huge OKC fan. Okay. I love, you know, kd, James Harden, Russell Westbrook and, you know, even though I couldn't dunk at the age of 10, you know, I always felt like driving into the rim, like I was going to punch it on somebody.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Right, right.

[Marcel Reed]

So, yeah, Russell Westbrook, my favorite player at the time. Kevin Durant's probably my all time favorite player.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Do you think about shot Gilglas Alexander?

[Marcel Reed]

Oh, he's great. Oh, yeah. I like watching him. I don't care what anybody has to say about him shooting free throws or getting fouls or anything. He scores points. Points, Baby.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

You're, you're a football player and basketball player. Who do you think is a better, who are better athletes, basketball players or football players?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah, let's get you in on this debate. Come on. Now, I know y' all talk about in the locker room better.

[Marcel Reed]

I want to say. I want to say. I want to say basketball.

I want to say basketball. But I'll like, at the same time, like, the football players are really athletic.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yep.

[Marcel Reed]

But shoot. You ever seen Miles Garrett play basketball?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I have.

[Marcel Reed]

Like, see that? I mean, it makes sense.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That would be to the football player.

[Marcel Reed]

Football. Football is more athletic. Yeah. Football players can probably do a lot of things. I don't know.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You know, when this whole debate went down, I just started posting random clips. Clips of football players playing basketball. Keon Coleman. Devonte Adams is a great basketball player. So I wanna. I know that you were like, a dynamic basketball player. Do you think that if you had stuck with basketball, you would admit it to the NBA?

[Marcel Reed]

Oh, yeah.

My coaches in the meeting room and they always laugh at me when I say I would have been in the NBA. I always shoot, like, at the end of the meetings, I always shoot my water bottle into the trash can.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Kobe.

[Marcel Reed]

And they'll be like, my coach would be in the back. He'd be like, don't say it. I'm not gonna say it today. I wasn't gon coach.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

You should be grateful I'm here because I could be in the NBA.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You see this? I see we see you run on the field and, like, I can see the. The translation of the Russell Westbrook comparison. But talking about baseball, like, do you follow baseball closely still?

[Marcel Reed]

Not much. I. I watch college baseball when it comes on.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

More than mlb.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

And then when you were. When you were growing up playing on the diamond, who did you. Who did you. Who did your game resemble in baseball?

[Marcel Reed]

That's a hard one.

I don't. I don't really know who.

My dad always showed me.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Ken Griffey Jr. Oh, this man is swinging for the fences, I'm telling you.

[Marcel Reed]

Ken Griffey. Yeah. But I don't know if that would be my comparison.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's a Hall of Famer.

[Marcel Reed]

That's a pretty good.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's a really good comparison. I mean, I like that. I love the confidence. I really do.

[Marcel Reed]

I play center for you. I play center field on shortstop, so I could pitch, too.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Come on. Come on now. Okay, so speaking of that. Right. Seriously, how did being a basketball player, a football player, and a baseball player help you be a better quarterback?

[Marcel Reed]

I think just being on different teams and kind of understanding how the game goes for each one and how to lead for each one helped me be just a good competitor and leader at the same time. And I think at the quarterback position. You have to be that at all times. So I'd say that. And, you know, just being able to, you know, play all those sports, it takes a different level of skill for each. Each and every one of them, and so. And a different level of iq. But like you said, you know, I guess football players are the most athletic. I feel like football players can do every sport.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah, I feel like they can, too.

[Marcel Reed]

AJ Brown was hitting some baseball. Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You know what I'm saying? See, listen, he gets it. He understands.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I've watched you do any sport, and it's impressive. You know, it always works out for some way somehow. I'm like, how do you know how to do that?

Okay. But talking about the Heisman Trophy.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, yes. That's what we're here for.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Yeah, that's what we're here for. Who do you think should be the Heisman finalists? The four finalists that get to go to New York?

[Marcel Reed]

I think.

It'S really hard. There's a lot of guys playing some really good ball.

Aside from record and who they play. I'm gonna say my guy, Diego Pavia.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

He's been praying. He's been playing pretty well.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

He has. He's got that swag about him, too.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. I like.

I like. I like Mendoza. I like Fernando, the super computer.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's what I call him.

[Marcel Reed]

I love that guy. I train with him in the summer.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay. Really?

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Nice.

[Marcel Reed]

He's funny.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Why is he funny? He.

[Marcel Reed]

You can see it on the interviews. Like, he's just. He's a little. He's a little quirky guy.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

He is quirky. Yeah.

[Marcel Reed]

It's. It's. He has dry humor. I don't know if you've ever seen the Office. My favorite shows.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Michael Scott.

[Marcel Reed]

Michael Scott. Like, he just has that type of.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That type of humor.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's. To.

Yourself.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. I'm throwing myself in there. I'm going to save myself last hours. But.

I want to say Julian saying. But I want to say Jeremiah Love.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, okay. Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

You know. You know, just watching, you know, not even his highlights, just watching some games where he's played and some of the runs that he's had. I mean, that spin move was crazy. Yeah, His. His. His break tackle and then acceleration is great. Like, you know, I watched him last year play against us and how he turned the corner and then, you know, he had. He had a long run against us this year as well. I mean, that guy's. He's nice.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

No, he's nice.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

He also has one of the best Heisman campaigns. The fact that this thing says Love on top.

[Marcel Reed]

I'm like, this thing.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Your name is good.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

All right, let's get to the nitty gritty of it, because you put yourself in there. F Worth. Why should Marcel Reid the Heisman Trophy?

[Marcel Reed]

I mean, I think just based off of, you know, not. Not stats, but, you know, the games that I've been in and, you know, what I've done in big games. I mean, I think I'm one of the best players in the country. You know, this team has helped me out a lot. We got guys around me that have, you know, helped me get to this point. And, you know, the record shows it. I mean, regardless of where the teams that we've played sit, it's hard to win games in the SEC. It's hard to win 11 straight. Like, a lot of people don't do that. I mean, that's why I have so much respect for Fernando and Julian. I mean, they're doing stuff that a lot of teams can't do. I mean, I don't. There's a hundred something teams in this league, and, you know, we're trying to be the one sitting at the top. And I think we've done a really good job with that so far. And, you know, kind of me being the leader, that I think kind of shows a lot to where my name should be on this list and, you know, how it should be talked about.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

What do you think your Heisman moment was this year?

[Marcel Reed]

I mean. I mean, it's hard not to say. The South Carolina game, like, I hit a switch for sure, and. And I wasn't. I wasn't trying to. I really wasn't trying to hear anybody going in at halftime. You know, coach came in, said a few words. O.C. came in, said a few words. But I was just, like, in my own mind, like, I didn't. It was me and God at that point.

It was me and God at that point. And, you know.

I mean, I came in and I went in the locker room and, you know, gave my little spiel of just saying, like, everybody do their job. I mean, there's still a second half to play. They haven't done anything. All we've done is shoot ourself in the foot, and we don't have another foot to shoot. So let's just go out there and, you know, don't worry about what the time is, how much time we have left, or what the points are, how many we have to score. Just go out there and, you know, Focus on one play at a time. And I think we did that. And, you know, the team rallied around me. Defense played a great second half to give us possessions and give us the ability to go score. And I don't remember how many yards, almost 300 in the second half. I mean, I've never done that in my life.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Right. You either fold in those moments or you don't. I thought you did an amazing job coming back in the second half, and it really showed the true character of who you were. Because some people are like, ah, he put himself in that position and it's like, yeah, but what, what's your response after that? And I thought that, that, that was a Heisman response.

[Marcel Reed]

Sure.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Biggest comeback. And I think it's Texas A and M history.

[Marcel Reed]

Yep.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Like, that's a. That's a Heisman moment. So I think you're spot on with that one.

[Marcel Reed]

Sure.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

All right, moving on to our next segment called viral spiral.

Oh, and viral spiral number one is Lane Kiffin.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Come on now. You know he was gonna ask you about it. You knew it.

[Marcel Reed]

You knew it.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Lane Kefin just left Ole Miss for lsu. What was your first reaction when you saw that bomb drop?

[Marcel Reed]

I mean, I felt like it was gonna happen. I mean, just like, like, no, no, no disrespect towards Lane or anything, but, like, you can't talk about it that long and it not happened.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

He was speaking in text.

[Marcel Reed]

It Was. It was bound to happen.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Commit to me, please. I don't know. I'm just. I it for the moment. I'm just trying to take care of what I can right now.

[Marcel Reed]

Shoot. If 91mil for 7 years was in front of my face, I would not pass it.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

And you're a guy that was originally committed to all this. So are you happy you're here now?

[Marcel Reed]

I'm pretty happy I'm here. You know, there's kind of the same stuff going on around the time when I was kind of making my decision and when I think it was Harson. Brian Harson got fired from Auburn.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah.

[Marcel Reed]

Speculation of. Of Lane Kiffin going to Auburn. So we didn't really know what was going to go on. We started to look at other places and kind of make sure that I had a spot somewhere. Right. You know, going into my freshman year of college. So ultimately chose this place just because my family. My dad's side of the family is from Texas.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

This is kind of like a second home to me. They're from the Dallas area, which is three hours away, but, yeah, like a second home to me. I've been up here for Christmas, Thanksgiving, just about every year. So I felt comfortable being in Texas. It's essentially like Tennessee in a way.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It is.

[Marcel Reed]

It's just a bigger Tennessee.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You know, you got the cowboy. They got the cowboy boots.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Robert's fully just going into that.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I'm in my cowboy era. But nah, you saying that is crazy. Because, like, if you're a player in that locker room and your coach is like, hey, we just won 11 1. We're going to the College Football Playoff. And he's like, but I'll see y' all later. Like, what. What is. What would your feeling be if you were Trinidad Chambliss or Kawan Lacey right now in that locker room?

[Marcel Reed]

You know, I'd say three years ago, I'd be kind of devastated. Now I wouldn't be as devastated. I'd be understanding.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

I mean, like, you got to think about it, like, nil transfer portal. Like, players are doing the same type of thing nowadays. And I know coaches already make a lot of money, but they still gotta feed their family at the end of the day.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

True.

[Marcel Reed]

And.

They gotta do what they gotta do. It depends on really how they do it. Sometimes that makes you feel a certain type of way. And I can't really say. Cause I'm not on that side of the ball right now. How I would feel towards it. Cause I don't really know what Went in and what went out in that situation.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Understood. Yeah. So I'll just give you the opportunity. Why do you love coach? Coach Elko?

[Marcel Reed]

He's. He's a straightforward person. You know, as soon as he got here, he told everybody, basically, everybody had a clean slate. You know, we're going to have to work. And our first season with him was pretty good until kind of the end. And, you know, it was really just a player thing and how. How bought in we were and, you know, how complacent we got after seeing how well we were doing at the beginning. And I think just going into this off season and understanding what Elko's trying to bring to the table, what he wants from us, everybody understood it, and we kind of flipped a switch in the off season to, you know, try to put our foot down and put our heads down at work. Don't worry about. Anybody is talking about and, you know, saying or projecting A and M is going to be. I mean, we've heard that 8 and 4 narrative for years and kind of had to shut it up, but, you know, we didn't have that in our mind at all this offseason. And I just have so much respect for the way he coaches us and the way he leads us because.

He just makes it known that, you know, it's going to take work. And he tells us when we're going to have a hard practice, he tells us when we're going to have a light practice to take load off our body. I mean, he lets us know everything and, you know, you know what to expect from him at all times. So I. I respect him for that a lot.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Viral spiral number two. We have a epidemic of players spitting on each other. You've had Jamar Chase, who was spitting on Jalen Ramsey. You have had Jalen Carter, who was spitting on track Pesca. And then you also had some college players who were spitting on each other. Also. What would you do if another player spit on you or have you ever got spit on in on?

[Marcel Reed]

I never. I never. I've never been spit on.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yep. On the field? On the.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

On the field.

[Marcel Reed]

On the.

Oh.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, boy. Yes. On the field. On the field. Never been spit on. On the field. All right. What would you do if. If a player spit on you on the field?

[Marcel Reed]

I really don't know what I was.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I don't know either. Like.

[Marcel Reed]

Like. I mean, it depends on how chippy the game is already, right? Like, if you just been on me because I'm. I'm playing you right now, and you Just mad, like I'm probably not gonna do anything. Like. Okay. Right, right. I got a visor on, so hopefully that catches it. Yeah, if they, if they get it on my lip, I might crash.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, my goodness.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That's what I'm saying. It's so disgusting that if it hit.

[Marcel Reed]

If it hit right here.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Oh, my God.

[Marcel Reed]

If it hit right here.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, it's. It's live. I'm telling you, it's. It's the weirdest thing I've ever seen because it wasn't. You know, normally, you, you normally people, like, spit to the side.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Like they spit on the ground right next to you, but like full on spitting on you. I just, I don't understand that. And I can understand any player that reacts in a certain type of way because that's like the ultimate disrespect.

[Marcel Reed]

All right, Virals, I got a question.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, here we go. Here we go.

[Marcel Reed]

So the Jalen Carter Dak Prescott situation.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yep.

[Marcel Reed]

Dax bit first. Right. He didn't spit on him.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, that's a.

[Marcel Reed]

You got a few first, right?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Got a future. Yeah, he got future.

[Marcel Reed]

I was like, I.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

He definitely spit.

[Marcel Reed]

He's like right in front of him.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Right in front of him. And then looked up. So here's what I think would happen. I think Dak spit, not really trying to spit at Jalen. Then when he looked up, he saw Jalen was there and was like, ah, maybe I can entice him to get upset.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. Okay.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

And that. So that's what I think happened. I don't think he did it on purpose. I think he spit and then looked up and was like, oh, here's an opportunity.

[Marcel Reed]

Okay.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

And he got him out the game.

[Marcel Reed]

Okay.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Got him out the game.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Yeah, I can see that. All right, viral spiral number three. So part of a QB's job is to manage relationships with wide receivers. And we recently saw Shador Sanders and Jerry Judy, who was kind of clapping at the shooter on the sideline for not getting the ball on open play. You. How would you manage when, when your wide receiver on the sideline is mad at you for not getting the ball and like, do you crash out or.

[Marcel Reed]

No, I, I.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Go ahead, take your time. Because it happens.

[Marcel Reed]

I usually just say, like, like, stay with simple, Stay with me. Just stay with me. Like, it's not, it's not that hard. I mean, we got 11 games in the. Well, we got 12 games in the regular season and more to come after that. Like, you're gonna get the ball eventually. All right. If it's not coming to you right now. The coverage is telling me it's not supposed to go to you right now. So I don't know what you want me to do. I'm playing the game how I'm supposed to play it.

You know, if you're open, I'm gonna throw you the ball. If you're not, probably not gonna throw you the ball. And you gotta respect that as a receiver. There are 11 people on the field, on offense, and five to six of them could get the ball maybe. And it can only be one person each play. So you just gotta understand that sometimes. And you know, I think sometimes the ego can get to people. And I understand if I was a receiver, I'd be kinda. I'd have the same emotions if I wasn't getting the ball that much. But it happens sometimes and you just gotta keep playing the game. You can't, you can't let your emotions get to you because then that's gonna take a toll on everybody. So I try to just mediate it a little bit and, and I don't really argue when it comes to that. I just tell them my side and then I go sit down.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That's a.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Before you go, that's a great point. And make sure you keep that mindset because that's the biggest thing in like managing wide receivers. We get the ball every play.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Unless it's Wildcat, which for guys like us there's not much. We're the Wildcat. So they don't get the ball but maybe five, six times. But they, they didn't ran 50 routes.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

And like for a quarterback, I understand that part of it. So it's like, I'm not gonna disrespect you, I'm gonna listen to you and then we gonna go execute for sure. But we going to make sure we mitigate it because that's our job as quarterbacks is to manage our teammates in the right way. And I think you're doing a great job of that.

[Marcel Reed]

Thank you.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

But you also, in the NFL, you see the quarterbacks also crashing out on the sideline. Now, how many times have you seen Tom Brady break a freaking iPad on the sideline?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah, I've seen that.

[Marcel Reed]

Listen, that might be from an ma.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

He's assignment. He's just, he's just a. He's just a competitor. He's a fiery competitor.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Yeah, that's funny. All right, viral spiral number four. All right. Deion Sanders recently came out and said that we have to stop sugar coating why players are going to the Portal and leaving and that. It's the money. It's always about the money. So if Miami came today and offered you $4 million, what do you say?

[Marcel Reed]

I have to talk with my parents.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That is a.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That PR Trained answer.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It's not even a PR trained answer. That is a real answer. That's a. Because, listen, I know at least from the outside looking in what A and M has done for you has been great. I think if any team came in and offered you more money, I think they'd match it because you're such a great player and because you've been great in this community. But the fact that you just said that is perfect because it's real.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

And that's the reality of the world we live in today in college football.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It's. It is a business. And you're in the business of being in the best place for you. And I think sometimes people don't understand that. I think the best place for you is here at Ticks A and M. I think you probably agree with that.

[Marcel Reed]

I do, too. And I, I, I got kind of. I got offers after my freshman year and.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Really?

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. I mean, I didn't. I thought that this was the best place to be. I don't think there's any reason I need to leave Texas A and M.

I have the job, and it's mine to lose, and I don't think I will. But, like, there's no reason for me to leave. I think I have a great OC I have a great coach. I have great players around me. We have the best stadium in college football. The best college town in college football. I mean, there's not, like, Barstow even said it. Best college town. Like, there's no need for me to leave and go anywhere else.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Are you coming back to Texas A and M next year?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Hot seat.

[Marcel Reed]

I'm coming back. I'll be back.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I heard it.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Here first. Here first. Out of pocket, baby. We getting the real news.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

All right, exclusives. Here's our segment called the Hut seat segment. And my first question is, if you could delete one fan base from the Internet, who are you choosing? Who trolls you the most online?

[Marcel Reed]

If I can delete one fan bas.

Texas.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah. I knew it. I knew it.

[Marcel Reed]

They don't even. They don't even do too much, but when they do, like, I don't. I don't even. Like, I don't like Texas, so I just.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Rightfully so.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

No, it's one of your biggest rivals. Like, I get it. I totally understand that answer. I. I. We'll move on to the next question.

[Marcel Reed]

All right.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

What's the most out of pocket DM an opposing fan has ever sent you?

[Marcel Reed]

I'm from Tennessee, Obviously not Knoxville, though, but somebody got my number. I just got flooded with text like, you suck. You're terrible. You should have stuck to basketball.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Jesus Christ.

[Marcel Reed]

I got. I got the word that you ain't supposed to get as an African American man.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, wow.

[Marcel Reed]

In. In all caps.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

In all caps. With the er.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Oh, my God.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Wow.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

He said with the er.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

With the. I mean, come on now. With the ER is like, yeah, violation.

[Marcel Reed]

That's violation. And some more stuff.

I got told that I was gonna get fat. Like, I'm gonna find you. I'm like, huh? I'm like, I didn't even play. Like, what did I do? I'm only on the travel squad. I'm fourth street right now. Just chilling. Yeah, I was just watching the game, so. Oh, my God, that was crazy.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Now, before we move on to the next question, you said something there. You said you're not from Knoxville. Is that a thing? Is that, like, a thing in Tennessee where you're either from Nashville and you definitely not from Knoxville?

[Marcel Reed]

Nah, I really just don't. I don't. I don't. I don't like Knoxville that much. I just don't think, you know, there's other parts around Knoxville like. Like Gatlinburg, Severeville that are nice, but I don't think Knoxville is nice. That's. They call it Dirty Knox.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh.

[Marcel Reed]

And I agree.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, my goodness.

[Marcel Reed]

But I'm from Nashville. You know, Nashville is really nice.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It's beautiful.

[Marcel Reed]

It's getting gentrified. So it's getting nicer.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It's getting gentrified.

[Marcel Reed]

It is.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Everything you see now is happening in Nashville.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. They're putting all types of stuff up there.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That's true.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, that is hilarious.

[Marcel Reed]

But, yeah. Now, Memphis, though. Memphis. People say Memphis is their own.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Memphis is in a world of its own.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. They don't count it as Tennessee at all.

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

They got a lot of rappers from Memphis, though.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

All right. What school has the worst mascot?

[Marcel Reed]

I want to say Cal, I think that Bear just look weird.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

He turned shots at Bears or Stanford.

[Marcel Reed]

Just the California schools.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

The Stanford, they do have a tree. That is true.

[Marcel Reed]

Like, what is. What's the. Like what's the mascot? Is it.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It's a cart. It's the Stanford Cardinal, which I believe is a. A type of tree, which is why they have the tree.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

See, none of the school's Mascots make no sense.

[Marcel Reed]

A cardinal is a tree, not a bird.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I thought it was a bird, too.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I thought it is a bird, but it's a tree. But it's also a style of tree, I believe.

[Marcel Reed]

Okay.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I. Yeah. What I called a game for them, like, three years ago, and I got the whole breakdown, and that's what I took from it.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That's where you joined the band.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I did join the band. That's right.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

So at home, I was having a guest. I'm like, I wonder what he's gonna say. And I was like, oh, I bet he's gonna say Oklahoma, because what the hell is a boomer Sooner?

[Marcel Reed]

I don't know what that is.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I don't either. I don't. I don't.

[Marcel Reed]

What is a Sooner in general? Is that a horse or.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

So is it the. I don't know.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Like, I'm not even gonna guess.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Like, the Oregon Trail? Like, is it the. I think it's the. The Travelers, you know? Like, you see them, like, when they run on the field, and they got the. The horses and the carriage and, like, that's a.

[Marcel Reed]

That's a.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's a Sooner, I think. I don't know.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Just.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Just picking up context clues here. I don't know.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Makes no sense.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Regardless, what's the biggest lie that fans believe about you?

[Marcel Reed]

That me and Sony Lee are dating.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Oh. Oh, okay.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

So you are.

[Marcel Reed]

No.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, okay.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

No.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Do you know Suny Lee?

[Marcel Reed]

I mean, mutually.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Do you want to date Sunny Lee?

[Marcel Reed]

I can't.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I don't.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That's. It's not a no, guys.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It wasn't a no, but his answer said it all. I got you.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Are you dating someone else?

[Marcel Reed]

I'm not dating.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay. So I just want to say we don't want to end any relationship. Okay.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

But for the lady ladies out there, what's Marcel Reid's dream girl?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh.

[Marcel Reed]

Oh, that's a good question.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Go ahead. Look at. Look at their eyes right now. Look at. Look at their eyes and tell them. What is Marcel Reed's dream girl?

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Thank you.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's good.

[Marcel Reed]

So this girl, like, she's not really my type of.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

But she's really pretty, Kehlani.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Really?

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, my goodness.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

She's also.

[Marcel Reed]

I like her music, too. Yes, she is. She is. I mean, if I was a little older, if I.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Bill Belichick has shown us that age does not matter.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, my goodness. Where are we going?

[Marcel Reed]

Is that real?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's. That's real, bro. They was on the beach doing, like, beach angels. Yeah, like that's. Now that's crazy work. Next one.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

What is your worst pre game habit? That you're embarrassed to admit that.

[Marcel Reed]

I'm embarrassed.

I wouldn't say I'm necessarily embarrassed at this one. I wear, I wear pregame. I wear underwear.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

Every week. I've been wearing them since high school.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

They're still intact.

[Marcel Reed]

Well, last week they got a hole in it. But. But it was only though. It was only at the bottom. It was at the bottom. So they're still, they're still, they're still wearing.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Still wearable.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Listen, we come from the gut.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Season's almost over. The underwear is giving up.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Holding the underwear ain't going to stop us.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. Have to get a remade.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You got to retrimm or cut it off. Or cut them off.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Is that your good luck underwear?

[Marcel Reed]

It's Bob Ross underwear. It says no mistakes, just happy accidents.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Jesus Christ.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

So you can pee yourself.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It's just a happy accident.

[Marcel Reed]

Happy accident.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I like it.

[Marcel Reed]

Notre Dame game. I had to. I ain't so. Oh, I left them in my bag week before.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Oh, that's disgusting.

[Marcel Reed]

No, but I washed them at the hotel.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Okay. Thank God.

[Marcel Reed]

I washed them at the hotel.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

In the sink.

[Marcel Reed]

In the sink. I had to. I had to.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Had to.

[Marcel Reed]

Better than not washing.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Marel.

[Marcel Reed]

And I held them up. I put them. I put them up, let them kind of air dry. They didn't dry all the way. But look. But look. Then I put them. I, I, I grabbed, I grabbed the iron board. I grabbed the iron board and I had to kind of like steam them. Basically dry them out.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

To dry them out with the iron.

[Marcel Reed]

The iron.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I don't know. He was gonna play with moist underwear.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's. That's dedication, bro.

[Marcel Reed]

I could do not.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's moist. Moist, moist.

[Marcel Reed]

And they were cold too, so I could, I could definitely couldn't have done that.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah, he washed them in the sink and ironed them.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That is dedication.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

That's dedication to the bit. That's dedication. Not, not superstitious. But just a little stitches.

[Marcel Reed]

Just a little.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

He knows that. He's careful. He's office fan. So, you know, that's where we connect. Which one of your wide receivers right now would not survive a zombie apocalypse?

Oh, shoot.

[Marcel Reed]

I say Jonah Wilson. And why Jonah Wilson? He too loud.

He's way too loud.

All the high deal with horror or none of that. But like, I think he'd be scared.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You think he'd be scared?

[Marcel Reed]

He from Houston. He.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You think he, he didn't heard some of them.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. But. Yeah. Nah, he wouldn't make it.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

That's funny.

[Marcel Reed]

Shout out for four deuce.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

My bad.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Who are your top five QBs in the NFL?

[Marcel Reed]

Like, all time?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Right now.

[Marcel Reed]

Right now.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Yeah, let's go. Let's go right now.

[Marcel Reed]

Okay.

Drake May.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

Ballin.

[Marcel Reed]

I think Joe Burrow.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yep.

[Marcel Reed]

Jordan Love.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yes.

[Marcel Reed]

I can't leave my homes out.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Can't do that.

[Marcel Reed]

Can't leave my homes out.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

This is the best in the galaxy right now.

I know. I know. Who he's picking between right here. This is a big one.

[Marcel Reed]

Oh, I'm just like. I'm gonna just say Lamar.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

The season ain't been amazing, but Lamar. Yeah, Lamar.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

There we go. That's the top five.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Here's the next one for you. Who are the top five quarterbacks in college football right now?

[Marcel Reed]

Okay.

Fernando Mendoza. Julian saying.

Me.

I'll put Diego in there.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah.

[Marcel Reed]

I'm gonna have to say Trinidad Chambers.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, okay.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Trinidad Chambers. I like that. I was gonna say, you know, there's also, you know, Dante Moore, you got Jaden Mayava out of usc.

John Matiere, John Mateer at Oklahoma.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, there's. There's a lot of good quarterbacks right now.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah, there are. That's a good list, though. I like that list.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

How has Nil changed your life?

[Marcel Reed]

Well, I don't live in a dorm, I'll tell you that.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay. How big is the house?

[Marcel Reed]

It is four bedrooms, three and a half bathroom.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

It's pretty nice.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It's pretty nice.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Imagine having that college experience and not starving every night.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I was starving. I had to eat Subway every. Every meal.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Me, too.

[Marcel Reed]

I had to eat Subway.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

$5. $5 foot long.

[Marcel Reed]

Get the cookies.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, my goodness, the cookies. Smack, though. So the next question I have on Nil is, have you lost any friends because of Nil?

[Marcel Reed]

Nah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Because they know that you rolling in dough and you had to tell them.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Because you didn't put them on your private jet.

[Marcel Reed]

Okay.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah, we saw the jet. Deal.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. What about teammates? Actually, he's still mad at me, too. He brings it up all the time. He brings it up all the time. I'm like, bro, I still got some hours. You can come.

I only flew it once. I only flew it once. I mean, it was one trip, so.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Oh, my God.

[Marcel Reed]

I didn't lose a friend. One was put in jeopardy.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

Back home for friends back home. No.

Yeah. I don't think I've lost any friends. I think they all understand it. They're proud. You know, nobody's really. There's no jealousy or anything, right? I think everybody's doing well enough.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

What was the one that. That got put in jeopardy? What happened?

[Marcel Reed]

The. The one that didn't get to fly the jet. One of my running backs. I ain't gonna say his name. I ain't gonna put him out there, but. Yeah, I'm gonna get you on the plane one day.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

There you go. There you go.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I love it. Who is your dream team to play for in the NFL?

[Marcel Reed]

You know, it'd be pretty cool to play for the Titans.

Bring them some.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Wins, go back home.

[Marcel Reed]

Who else? I'd probably say.

I like Green Bay. I like. I like. I like Green Bay a little bit.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Why is that?

[Marcel Reed]

I just like the colors. I like the green and the yellow. I like the. The little mesh jerseys they have.

I play for the Redskins.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

My grandfather played for the Redskins.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Really?

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, he played for the Redskins a while ago.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay. I did not know that.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Well, you would not get to play for the Redskins because you would have to play for the Commanders or probably another name that they would have.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Maybe the Red Wolves.

[Marcel Reed]

Are they gonna change it again?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I don't think so, but I know that the fans never know.

[Marcel Reed]

They don't like it.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

They don't like it.

[Marcel Reed]

Okay.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

They don't like it.

[Marcel Reed]

I don't really like it either. It's not great.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

It's not a great name. Yeah, I've never shied away from that. It's not a great name, but it costs a lot of money to change the name. Yeah, that's the. That's the real kicker here. All the equipment, all the gear, just. It takes a lot of money to. To really change it up. All right, let's see if you can answer this one. Would you rather fight.

I'm sorry, I didn't even get the. Would you rather fight a horse sized duck or 100 duck sized horses?

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

It's the dumbest question of all time.

[Marcel Reed]

Duck size.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

A duck sized.

A horse sized duck.

[Marcel Reed]

The horses bite. They bite.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yes, they bite.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

They nibble them.

[Marcel Reed]

But they kick. Wouldn't be as hard. No.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

More like a hundred duck sized horses.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, I think I could take.

I can't take a duck the size of a horse. I can do 100 duck size horses.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I agree. They're gonna try to nibble you to death.

[Marcel Reed]

You know, that little. What's it called? I don't even know what it's called. It's a. That little thing you put on your ankle. It was a little Game you played when you were a kid and you kind of jump around.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, you jump around it?

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, I just put a spiky ball on it and then.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Yeah, knock out.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Look at the innovation. Okay, I see you.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

He's thought about this before.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I beat 100 gorillas, too, you know. See, he bringing back the gorilla conversation. What was it? Was it a hundred people? 100 guys over this gorilla versus one gorilla?

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

What guy are you? Because I don't think the guys could do it. I think the gorilla would destroy 100 guys. Are you guy one or you got 150 or. Which one are you trying to be?

[Marcel Reed]

I'm guy.

I'm guy 22.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Maybe it's a little tired.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

But you. But you have full strength.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

And you don't gotta watch 49 other guys just get pulled apart.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. I think after about 30, you know, other guys gonna kind of be scared to go up to it. So he gonna have a little rest time and then he gonna recharge and then come back.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Recharge.

[Marcel Reed]

So I gotta be 22.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

They have had this conversation in the locker room.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

All right. What do you want people to say about Marcel Reed 10 years from now?

[Marcel Reed]

He's a really nice guy? Because I'm a really nice guy. I think so.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I like that.

[Marcel Reed]

Let me know if y' all agree. I think I'm a really nice guy.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Let us know in the comments. Okay.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

No, I actually like that. That's. That's a good one. Really nice guy. So, Mr. Really Nice Guy, if there was a biopic about your life.

Who'S playing you and who's playing your dad?

[Marcel Reed]

You know, I think with the cut now.

Michael B. Jordan's probably playing me.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Michael B. Jordan from Creed. Okay. Sinners. I like it.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. Kind of look alike.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yes.

100%. Not too much.

[Marcel Reed]

My dad.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Shoot.

[Marcel Reed]

Who looks like my dad?

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Terry Crews.

[Marcel Reed]

Terry Crews got inches on him.

Sorry, dad.

Dang.

I gotta look at actors. I don't. I don't really know too much. I'm not a movie guy. I don't watch too much movies.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You're not a movie guy? I was gonna say. Is it. Is it Kevin Hart?

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

No, he not that short.

[Marcel Reed]

My dad ain't that funny either.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah.

[Marcel Reed]

I don't know. Somebody that's about. Approximately six foot.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Six foot. Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

285.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh.

Yeah. Spice Adams.

[Marcel Reed]

Maybe.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Maybe a little less.

[Marcel Reed]

Damn. I'm add that. I. I don't know. I don't know what you.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You don't know?

[Marcel Reed]

I don't know what he is right now. Let me retract. Let me retract. You working out? You working out?

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

All right, what artists or song do you listen to pregame?

[Marcel Reed]

So I put a shuffle. Just all my songs. It might play.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

What you got in there?

[Marcel Reed]

Drake. Oh, it might play Taylor Swift.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Okay, so you're going wall to wall.

[Marcel Reed]

It might play Luke Combs.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Who's wall to wall?

[Marcel Reed]

Chris Brown.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Yeah.

[Marcel Reed]

But then, like 16 minutes before kickoff. I play Tried Our Best by Drake.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

And then Demon Mode by Nardo Wick right after that.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay. Have you met Drake?

[Marcel Reed]

I've never met Drake.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

We gotta make that happen. Drake. We gotta make it happen.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah, we just gotta make that.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Heisman Trophy finalist, probably.

[Marcel Reed]

Your concert, 2017.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

So gotta make that happen.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Support right there. What's harder playing quarterback in the SEC or guarding Caitlyn Clark on the basketball court?

[Marcel Reed]

Playing quarterback in the sec.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Hater. Oh, my God.

[Marcel Reed]

I'm not gonna say I would lock her up, but she's not. She's not scoring all those points on me.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Oh, you don't. You heard that? Kay.

[Marcel Reed]

I would be heard a one on one. Oh.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, my goodness.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I mean, he's a basketball guy, so I wanna.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

I wanna watch that.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

I guess he has a chance offseason.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

We gotta try to make that happen.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah. If y' all still want to come back for me and Kevin Concepcion. 1v1.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh, y' all got a 1v1 band?

[Marcel Reed]

You can come to that, too. Oh, yeah. He thinks he's better than me at basketball.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Oh. When are y' all doing that?

[Marcel Reed]

Shoot? Sometime in the off season. I'll let you know.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Let me know. Let me know. You guys gotta let me know.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Okay. What's harder playing quarterback in the SSC or beating Serena Williams at tennis?

[Marcel Reed]

Beating Serena Williams at tennis. I don't think I.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Thank you, cuz. I don't want Serena to be. Hit this up. Be like, he said, What?

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

Here's your 100 mile shot.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Know that.

[Marcel Reed]

I can't. I ain't. I'm not keeping up with that.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

All right, the last one I got is what is harder playing quarterback in the SEC or doing a backflip on a beam like Simone Biles.

Doing a.

[Marcel Reed]

Oh, depends on how. I gotta learn how to do one.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Okay.

[Marcel Reed]

It's. That's. It's probably hard. Really hard.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

The beam is like this big.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

Yeah, it's not a big beam.

[Marcel Reed]

I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say flipping. Doing it on a beam. I can't. So it takes concentration. And balance. Like I can't even do it regular. I probably can, but I ain't tried it.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

You haven't tried a regular back.

[Marcel Reed]

I want to try it.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

So Simone bows on the beam, Serena Williams at tennis, but you smash it. Caitlin Clark on the basketball court. That's what you're saying right now. Wow. Caitlin Clark. You heard it here first. Marcel Reed, Texas AM quarterback, believes he can beat you.

[Co-host (possibly a producer or secondary host)]

No, no, no.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]

He can beat you in basketball.

[Marcel Reed]

Yeah.

[Robert Griffin III (RG3)]
