Hey, Hey Fightin' Podcast listeners. Bringing your attention to another LSU Sports podcast, Tigers Win, which launches Season 2 today with LSU Soccer head coach Sian Hudson.

Back Sunday with a Hurry Up.

Our first guest on season 2 of Tigers Win is LSU Soccer head coach Sian Hudson.

In just her second season, Coach Hudson has led the Tigers to a 7-0 start, a No. 6 national ranking, and a school record 10 consecutive victories dating back to the spring.

The key to success? Belief. Belief brought her to LSU. Belief carried the team through a eight-game winless streak to start her time in Baton Rouge. Belief kept them bought into a new system of fluid possession when things didn't click at first. And belief has them playing better soccer than just about anybody in the country.

We spoke on Tuesday, September 14 ahead of a Friday, September 17 matchup with Mississippi State to start SEC play.

After that conversation, you'll hear the outro music, followed by our conversation from September of 2020, when the Tigers were set to start a COVID-delayed SEC-only fall schedule. I added it as a bonus segment because we referenced it so often in this episode, and because it gives great perspective on how Coach Hudson's vision has turned into reality.

It doesn't hurt that his wife is a former Tiger soccer standout from Mandeville. It doesn't hurt that he played four years of college football in New Orleans, either.

But mostly, Baker's bought into the vision Ed Orgeron has for the program, Daronte Jones has for the defense, and he has for the Tigers' linebackers. He talks about giving that position group a fresh start, playing to each players' strengths, memories of Mandeville, and more on today's episode.

Andre Carter: LSU's Defensive Line Coach and Renaissance Man Jun 02, 2021

There's more to Andre Carter than meets the eye.

And plenty meets the eye. He's not all that far removed from an NFL career in which he registered 80.5 career sacks, and just by looking at him, you'd like his chances to suit up on Sundays this fall and get a sack or two off the edge.

But Carter matches physical prowess with mental acuity. He's sharp, energetic, and curious – a language-learning pianist who studied Taekwondo in childhood and listens to stand-up comedy on long road trips.

At his core, though, he's all football, which is why he chose coaching over retirement. He loves the game, and he loves the players.

We talk the Tigers' deep defensive line, his coaching philosophy, his many interests outside of football, and more.

Defensive coordinator Daronte Jones on Scheme, Spring, Travel, Bourbon, Books, and More May 27, 2021

Daronte Jones has been everywhere, man.

Paris. Amsterdam. Milan. London. The list of destinations visited by LSU's well-traveled defensive coordinator is endless. But now, he's in Baton Rouge, looking to build a defense that can bring the Tigers back to championship heights.

On today's episode of Hey Fightin' Podcast, Jones talks about his journey around the world and back to Louisiana, touching on scheme, spring takeaways, bourbon, books, and, of course, travel.

JaCoby Stevens + Racey McMath Apr 23, 2021

JaCoby Stevens came to LSU determined to leave a legacy.

Consider it left.

Before setting Pro Day on fire with his outrageous performance in the vertical leap, Stevens sat down for one last interview before his NFL career begins. Up for discussion are his goal to post "freaky numbers," his understanding of the investment teams are set to make in him, and his role at the next level.

Where do you want Racey McMath to play?

Need a receiver to take the top off the defense? He can do that too. T

ight end? H-back? Whatever it takes, that's what McMath will do.

Kary Vincent Jr + Zach Von Rosenberg: The Fastest and Slowest Roads to the Pros Apr 21, 2021

Another two-parter, with the fastest man in the #NFLSU Draft class...and Zach Von Rosenberg.

Kary Vincent Jr. was born a sprinter. Speed is his trademark, whether he's on the football field or the track. But during his journey from LSU to the NFL, KJV has proved he's a fighter, too. On today's Hey Fightin' Podcast, Vincent Jr. talks the heights -- winning the 2019 national championship -- as well as the depths -- losing his father just before the 2019 Fiesta Bowl -- of his time in Baton Rouge. He also discusses the difficulty of stepping away from football for a year, what he learned through the opt-out process, and how hungry he is to get back on the field.

Watch Kary's interview here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wH8opUpQD5M

Zach Von Rosenberg knows the road to the pros better than anyone else in this year's #NFLSU draft class. That's because he's traveled it before. The former MLB Draft pick is now going through the process again, this time for the NFL. He reflects on the similarities, the differences, his favorite moments as a Tiger, and how long he can kick at the next level.

Jabril Cox and Tyler Shelvin: Road to the Pros Apr 15, 2021

A special two-interview episode.

To watch on YouTube, click here.

Part 1: Jabril Cox has nothing left to prove. In three seasons at the FCS level with North Dakota State, he was a three-time national champion, a First-Team All-American, and an unstoppable force on defense. In his lone season at LSU, his talent spoke for itself, whether he was stuffing running backs, covering tight ends, or picking off quarterbacks. Cox joined Hey Fightin' Podcast to talk about his journey from frigid Fargo to balmy Baton Rouge and on to the NFL.

Part 2: Tyler Shelvin anchored LSU's defensive line in its run to the 2019 national championship. After opting out of the 2020 season due to COVID-19, Shelvin is captivating the imaginations of NFL Draft scouts with his size, power, and production. Shelvin talks about his path to the Draft on this episode of Hey Fightin' Podcast.

Tory Carter: Making Fullbacks Great Again Apr 11, 2021

Tory Carter's dreams already came true when he won a national championship at LSU.

So why not make a new dream?

After bouncing from fullback to tight end and dominating on special teams as a Tiger, Carter is ready to embark on a new adventure, bringing his "mean, tough, nasty" persona to the NFL.

We talk about how his game will transition to the next level, after rounding out his talents all over the field in college, on this episode of Hey Fightin' Podcast.

Terrace Marshall Jr.'s Road to the Pros Apr 07, 2021

Terrace Marshall Jr. always knew he'd end up here: on the brink of his NFL dreams coming true.

He just didn't realize how winding his path to this moment would be.

On this episode of Hey Fightin' Podcast, Terrace talks about his decision to opt out with two games remaining in the 2020 season, his friendship with Ja'Marr Chase, his plans to put on a show at LSU's Pro Day (spoiler alert: he did), and much more.

DJ Mangas, LSU Passing Game Coordinator Mar 18, 2021

LSU's passing game coordinator DJ Mangas was on staff when the Tigers' offense blew up in 2019. B

ack in a new and enhanced role, he's ready to help make history repeat itself in 2021.

Mangas makes his Hey Fightin' Podcast debut to talk about lessons learned from 2019, sitting alongside Joe Brady and Steve Ensminger for one of the wildest and most productive rides in college football history.

He also talks about lessons learned in the NFL, working with Jake Peetz, a loaded room of receivers, and more.

Offensive Coordinator Jake Peetz (Live!) Mar 11, 2021

Meet Jake Peetz.

He's got ties to Joe Brady but plenty of his own ideas.

He's a Nebraska boy whose journey to LSU has taken him all over the world of sports: NBA strength and conditioning coach, NFL assistant coach, and now tasked with the role to bring the Tigers' offense back to 2019's heights.

Kevin Faulk Talks Super Bowl, Brady's Greatness, and Running Backs + Justin Jefferson Rewind Feb 04, 2021

We kick off Season 3 of Hey Fightin' Podcast with the legendary No. 3 himself.

Kevin Faulk parlayed an All-American, record-setting career at LSU into a 13-year NFL career with the New England Patriots, where he played in five Super Bowls and won three. We sat down with Faulk ahead of a Super Bowl which will feature six former Tigers and a quarterback Faulk knows better than most.

After that conversation, we revisit a 2019 chat with Justin Jefferson, who is up for Rookie of the Year honors this weekend. It's a refreshing look back to a time when Jefferson was on the verge of a breakout few have ever matched -- from a two-star who some thought was a walk-on to a national champion and record-setting NFL rookie.

The Future is (Merry and) Bright ft. Kayshon Boutte, Max Johnson, and Shea Dixon Dec 20, 2020

Freshman standouts Kayshon Boutte and Max Johnson hop on the podcast just minutes after their record-breaking performances in LSU's 53-48 win over Ole Miss on Saturday Night in Tiger Stadium. After that, Shea Dixon of Geaux247 returns for a big picture view of LSU's 2021 recruiting class. Enjoy the 40th and final episode in Season 2 of Hey Fightin' Podcast. After all the challenges of 2020, the future remains bright for LSU Football.

Hurry Up: Victory for L-S-Shoe (Live Postgame Reaction) Dec 13, 2020

A different flavor this week for The Hurry Up.

I hopped on Zoom right after the game and took questions to break down LSU's 37-34 win over Florida.

The result was a less analytical approach to the game and a more emotional, raw conversation about joy and fandom and grit and culture.

But we did talk Cade York's 57-yard game-winner, Max Johnson's moxie, the freshmen playing like vets, and, yes, The Shoe.

With guest appearances from the Away Game Press Box, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com, Van Lathan of The Ringer, and, best of all, some loyal listeners.

(Man, I really hope I edited out all the stuff I was supposed to.)

Fight All the Way Dec 03, 2020

Hey Fightin' Podcast has opted back in for the 2020 season.

A month-long hiatus ends today. We're talking about the struggles of November, the opportunities of December, and where things stand at quarterback, receiver, and offensive line. We also talk Terrace Marshall's opt out, the defense's improvement, and what's at stake in the final three games of the season.

Ty Davis-Price and John Emery Oct 29, 2020

Call them Thunder and Lightning. Call them Honey and Mustard. Call them the best pair of running backs in the SEC.

Call them what you want: John Emery and Ty Davis-Price call themselves brothers.

This is an emotional episode. It's a funny episode. It's timely -- the two just combined for 223 yards and two scores against South Carolina. It's evergreen, too -- they go deep on their stories, their families, their bond.

I walked away from this conversation amazed by their resilience, grateful for their vulnerability, and inspired by their friendship.

I hope you feel the same way by the time it's done.

Stay tuned for more from this conversation on our other media feeds, including Inside LSU Football with Ed Orgeron and LSU's YouTube and social media channels.

Hurry Up: That Was Fun (TJ Finley, Terrace Marshall, Jabril Cox) Oct 25, 2020

52-24.

I know we went 15-0 and won a national championship last year, but that was fun.

The unknowns entering the game. The performances during the game. The freshmen standouts. The veterans rising to the occasion.

This team has a lot of work to do and bigger games ahead, but that -- that was just good times.

This is one of my favorite Hurry Ups, and not just because the game was so interesting and gave us so much to talk about.

First, Hester joins for a break down. Then we hear from TJ Finley, Terrace Marshall, and Jabril Cox. Finally, I get to your mailbag questions.

As always, thanks for listening, leave a rating/review if you haven't already, and Geaux Tigers.

TJ Finley and Max Johnson: What to Expect + Zach Von Rosenberg on Audacity, Belief, and Catalyzing Failure into Future Success Oct 23, 2020

LSU punter Zach Von Rosenberg is today's guest (23:46).

But before we talk with the 30-year-old former MLB pitcher/walk-on QB/walk-on tight end turned national champion, we break down Coach O's announcement that TJ Finley will get the start at QB for LSU. What can we expect from Finley? What's the latest on Myles Brennan's health? Where does Max Johnson fit in.

Plus, discussion on third down offense, young players likely to see more snaps Saturday against South Carolina, and more.

Ali Gaye's Incredible Journey Oct 14, 2020

Ali Gaye has an incredible story to tell.

LSU's defensive end, the SEC's pressures leader through three weeks, is already making history. He's one of the first college football players from The Gambia, a small country on the west coast of Africa, and his journey from there to here, from then to now, is one you have to hear for yourself. It's an amazing story of parental sacrifice and personal dedication.

Ali sat down with us for 30 minutes after his debut against Mississippi State to talk about his story. We also learn why he wears No. 11 and the improbable intersection of his life with another that inspires him daily.

Hurry Up: Gut Check Time Oct 11, 2020

LSU is 1-2 for the first time since 1994.

The Tigers head to The Swamp next week.

It's gut check time.

Hester joins the Hurry Up as we break format and break down LSU's 45-41 loss to Missouri.

Speak It Into Existence Oct 07, 2020

LSU got an improved quarterback, a breakout running back, and a returning star on defense Saturday. What did that fix, and what does it affect moving forward?

Hester and I break down those questions and more, including the right way to prepare your toothbrush for optimal dental cleaning.

We also start setting the mood for Florida Hate Week and try, in vain, to keep the weather at bay for Saturday's kickoff with Mizzou.

Subscribe! Rate! Review! Beat Mizzou!

(Note: this episode was recorded before the SEC's announcement that LSU's game against Missouri would be moved to Columbia for an 11 a.m. kickoff Saturday).

Just What the Doctor Ordered Oct 04, 2020

LSU rebounded from its Week One loss to knock off Vanderbilt 41-7.

Was it perfect? No.

Was it much improved? Yes.

We talk John Emery's breakout, Myles Brennan's development, Derek Stingley Jr.'s return, the defensive improvements, and much more.

Learning From Failure Oct 01, 2020

The cereal talk comes at the very end.

Before that, the serious talk.

We look forward to Vanderbilt by looking back at Mississippi State. What can LSU fix from the loss? What can LSU build on? And why is T-Bob trying to intimidate us?

Plenty of discussion on Derek Stingley's return, Ali Gaye's breakout, Myles Brennan's ups and downs, and of course we answer your questions as fast as we can before Hester has to do his radio show.

The Hurry Up is Back, For Better or Worse Sep 27, 2020

That wasn't pretty. But there's a lot to talk about.

LSU's 44-34 defeat to open the 2020 season revealed a lot of weaknesses and a few things to build around. We talk about the broader impact of football's return, the bad news on the Tigers' struggles to get going offensively and get stops defensively, the good news on the offense's second half adjustments and the defense's takeaways, and where things go from here.

You Ready? Sep 23, 2020

After a longer-than-usual wait and after an unprecedented offseason that came on the heels of an unprecedented season, the Tigers are back.

You ready?

If not, we will get you ready with today's episode, previewing LSU's 2020 season opener against Mississippi State (even though we don't actually mention the Bulldogs until like 45 minutes in...whoops). There's plenty of talk about the Tigers, though, including the new 7 and 18s, a depth chart break down, over/unders for key players, and some mailbag questions we hurried to answer at the end.

See y'all after Saturday's game.

No. 7 JaCoby Stevens, No. 18 Damone Clark, and No. 18 Chris Curry Sep 21, 2020

LSU announced its newest members of the No. 7 and No. 18 clubs Friday, and we sit down with the newest bearers of two historic Tiger jerseys.

First up is JaCoby Stevens, who will wear No. 7 this season as the Tigers' most prominent playmaker.

Next up we sit down with both Damone Clark and Chris Curry (14:05) to talk about their induction into the No. 18 lineage of leaders.

And with all three, we call up their parents to break the good news.

What I Saw at Preseason Game No. 2 + Why Coach O Loves Bo Pelini's Defense Sep 18, 2020

I took in last Friday's final preseason game for LSU, so me and Hester breakdown how good the offense looked, Myles Brennan's improvement outside of the pocket, and how the running game could be special in 2020.

We also discuss Coach O's recent comments on how excited he is about Bo Pelini's defense, Neil Farrell's decision to opt back in and its impact on the defensive line, plus more questions from Instagram and Twitter.

Back next week to preview LSU-Mississippi State.

Inside Preseason Game No. 1, Tiger Stadium's 2020 Changes, Secondary Adds Depth, Get the Cat, Mailbag, and more with Hester Sep 10, 2020

Hester is back to break down LSU's first preseason game, featuring breakout performances from Arik Gilbert, Kayshon Boutte, and the pass rushers. We also discuss the newly announced Tiger Stadium guidelines for 2020, the transfer of cornerback Darren Evans, answer Mailbag questions, and bring back Get the Hat for a special Big Cat edition.

Next Man Up Sep 01, 2020

On today's show, we recap Coach O's 9/1/20 press conference before sitting down with Jacob Hester (17:00) to talk about Ja'Marr Chase's decision to opt out, who emerges at receiver, LSU's Friday march, how to pronounce Arik Gilbert's name, and which Nicholas Cage film is the best of all.

(Note: conversation with Hester recorded Monday before Tyler Shelvin's decision to opt out was made public).

Camp Talk with Hester Aug 22, 2020

LSU wrapped up its first week of practice Friday, and Cody and Hester discuss some of the storylines from early days on the Ponderosa.

Topics covered include an improved running game, a loaded receivers room, an impressive freshman, edge rushers, depth up front, and Coach O's emphasis on not looking back at 2019.

The Transfers: Liam Shanahan and Jabril Cox Aug 19, 2020

You might say LSU's had some success with transfers in recent seasons. Liam Shanahan and Jabril Cox may not win the Heisman for the Tigers in 2020, but Ed Orgeron is counting on both players to step in and make an immediate impact on their respective sides of the ball.

First up on today's show is Shanahan, who talks about his journey from Harvard to Baton Rouge, his father's journey from Ireland to the States, working in Fenway Park and winning a World Series ring, the value of a Harvard Economics degree, and adjusting to SEC football.

After that we talk with Cox (22:16) about winning three (!) national championships before making his way to Louisiana. He talks about bypassing a shot at the NFL for another year of college, getting settled in Bo Pelini's defense, getting used to Fargo's frigid winters, growing up in St. Louis, seeing the Chiefs win a Super Bowl, and more.

Terrace Marshall Has High Expectations Aug 11, 2020

Terrace Marshall quietly grabbed 13 touchdowns last season, proving himself as one of the most talented receivers in the country. If anyone's still sleeping on his abilities, it's because they're not watching closely enough. The junior wide receiver joins the show today to talk about coming back from a midseason injury in 2019, missing his senior season of high school football, and his goals for 2020. Be warned: they are lofty. But also be warned: if anyone can exceed them, it's Marshall.

10 SEC Games, Locked In Superstar, and Mailbag with Jacob Hester Aug 06, 2020

Hester is back to talk about the SEC's decision to play 10 conference games, Ja'Marr Chase's decision to be "locked in" for 2020, and to answer your questions. Topics covered include running backs by committee, who steps up at defensive end, young WRs, and another round of Get The Hat.

Ja'Marr Chase and Derek Stingley Jr. Aug 01, 2020

A special two-interview episode.

Ja'Marr Chase (1:30) talks about emerging as a leader and getting in shape, while also breaking down the talent in the receivers room.

Derek Stingley Jr. (14:38) then hops on to discuss getting back to football, how DBU's swagger is now a quiet confidence, the one athletic feat he's not very good at, his go-to fast food order.

JaCoby Stevens Has Unfinished Business Jul 28, 2020

JaCoby Stevens watched 14 teammates head to the NFL Draft, and he knew he could've been No. 15.

But he had other ideas in mind.

LSU's senior safety joins the show today to talk about why he came back for one more year in Baton Rouge, how he stays motivated after winning the national championship, and what the difference on defense will be, as the Tigers prepare for a more attack-minded approach under defensive coordinator Bo Pelini.

The Hunger and Patience of Myles Brennan Jul 22, 2020

Myles Brennan has been waiting for his moment. No one understands patience or hunger like the fourth-year quarterback, who has bided his time in the quarterback room. His opportunity has arrived, although, as always, it has not arrived as planned.

If anyone can handle the wait and anxiety of the current moment, it's Brennan, who has known the emotions well in his time as a Tiger. He makes his Hey Fightin' Podcast debut to talk about his weight (hopefully for the last), his wait, what he's learned, and what he expects.

LSU Gets Its Rings, and We Get the Hat Jul 09, 2020

Jacob Hester and Cody Worsham catch up after some time away from the microphones by recapping the debut of LSU's 2019 championship rings. They also debut a new segment and discuss some replacements for departing stars. Back next week to answer some of your questions and more football talk.

Derek Stingley Jr.'s Next Play Jun 01, 2020

Derek Stingley Jr. made history as a freshman, and he had no idea. He had no idea that his Consensus All-American honors were the first by a true freshman defensive player in college football history, or that he joined only Herschel Walker, Adrian Peterson, and Rondale Moore as first-year players to make three of the five All-American squads. That's because Stingley doesn't look back, unless he's studying film. Even that, with everything else he does, is about getting better. It's all about the next play.

Stingley joins the podcast today to talk about his historic 2019 season, how he's managed to stay on his game during COVID-19 lockdown, and what's up his sleeve for 2020. Over the course of the conversation, you'll hear a young man who isn't just physically gifted. He's also wise beyond his years, a craftsman and a student of the game.

Forever Linked: The Story of Heisman Joe and Coach O is the story you need this week. It goes deep on Joe's recruitment, how he won over the team, and the connections he formed with Coach O. On the surface, the two are opposites -- the introverted QB from the Midwest, the outgoing Cajun from down the bayou. At their core, however, they're made of the same stuff.

When you've spent years building something, and crisis brings it to a halt, what do you do?

Tigers United: Cole Henry and Eric Walker, LSU Baseball Mar 31, 2020

LSU Baseball's pitching staff was off to a historic start in 2020. Then, the outbreak of a pandemic changed everything.

Today's episode of Tigers United features Cole Henry and Eric Walker (6:58), two of the Tigers' top arms, who check in from their homes on how they're adapting to life in the social distancing age. They talk missing the day to day grind of a baseball team, living meal to meal, finding ways to work out and throw, the uncertainty of their futures, what they're watching, and how difficult it is to cut off a championship chase before it even really gets started.

Tigers United: Skylar Mays and Ruby Harrold Mar 27, 2020

A new podcast series from LSU Athletics: Tigers United.

So many times in life, we're defined by the things that divide us. But sometimes we all go through something together. And we're reminded of the things that unite us.

Right now, in some form or another, we're all going through the same thing. And we're all united by a sense of loss and how to cope with it.

On one end of the scale, there are those who are fighting for their lives, fighting for their health, fighting for the lives of other people. And wherever you are in that fight, know you're not alone.

But up and down the scale, from most serious to least serious, we're all dealing with some sort of loss. Maybe it's a job. Maybe it's school. Maybe it's time spent with loved ones or the ability to go work out in a gym or eat out at a restaurant for dinner.

For Ruby Harrold and Skylar Mays, one of the losses they're dealing with right now is a loss that so many other student athletes across the country are figuring out how to cope with. Both of their collegiate careers were cut short because of the fight against the spread of the novel coronavirus.

Neither got the chance to finish their careers at LSU the way they deserved. After all the hard work and the heartache. After all the sacrifice and the celebration. They just ended.

Earlier this week, they joined me for the first in a series of conversations we're calling Tigers United.

Each episode we're going to hear from LSU student athletes, staff, and coaches, on how they're navigating this new world we're all living in. We'll talk mental health and physical health. We'll look back on the past, and we'll look forward to the future.

You can find every episode at LSUSports.net, as well as on our Hey Fightin' Podcast and Boot Up: The LSU Basketball Podcast feeds.

We all come from different places. We all play different sports. We all have different obstacles to overcome. But now as always, we're all Tigers, and we're all united.

Shelly Mullenix, Senior Associate AD for Health and Wellness, on LSU's Fight Against COVID-19 Mar 20, 2020

Today's episode is a different one, because we are all currently living in a different world that's changing every day. COVID-19 has altered everything for us all, and LSU Athletics is no different.

Shelly Mullenix (6:10) is LSU's Senior Associate Athletic Director for Health and Wellness, and she's helping make crucial decisions for -- and providing information every day to -- LSU's student-athletes and staff, who, like the rest of the world, are in a state of limbo as the world stops to fight this virus.

Shelly isn't just an expert on so many subjects related to this virus -- health and wellness, mental health, and administrative decision-making. She's also a compassionate, thoughtful leader, and she is working tirelessly to make sure LSU's student-athletes stay healthy, mentally and physically, at a time when that mission is fraught with challenges.

Today's conversation isn't just applicable to student-athletes, though. We can all learn from Shelly's expertise, involvement, and information.

Why Ja'Marr Chase Craves the Challenge of Wearing Number 7 + Ed Orgeron Previews Spring Practice Mar 05, 2020

Ja'Marr Chase walked into Football Ops this week on a mission.

He wanted No. 7.

It took him time to track down Coach O, who bounces around the building like a man on fire, but eventually, he found his head coach and asked for the jersey.

"Alright," Coach O said, "let's do it."

On today's show, we sit down with Ja'Marr to discuss why he wanted that number, what it means to him, and how he's working to set new goals after surpassing the many he set in 2019.

"I look at 7 as a competitive number," Chase says. "I think 7 at LSU is like a challenge for people. There's a lot of things that goes on in the year when you have 7 on, a lot of critics, a lot of people, a lot of expectations from 7, and I want to have that challenge upon me."

That's a mentality that's taken Chase to the top of college football, and it's the mentality that fuels his desire to go even higher, still.

Jack Marucci: The Brain Behind LSU Football's Technological, Intellectual, and Cultural Innovations Mar 03, 2020

Jack Marucci is the Brain of LSU Football.

He'll push back on that, because he's humble and brilliant. But Marucci, who just finished his 24th season as LSU's Director of Athletics training, is the driving force behind so many innovations and ideas inside of the football program.

He has the trust of Ed Orgeron, who leans on him for research, analysis, technological advancement, player health, character evaluation, and much more. He also has the trust of Orgeron's players, who spend hours in his training room rehabbing, venting, relaxing, seeking counsel, and debating whatever topics of the day should arise in the Barbershop.

On today's show, we look back at the 2019 season through the eyes of Marucci, who was there every step of the way, as well as looking ahead to the future of Tiger football. Throughout the conversation, the same topics converge: character and trust, the blending of objective data with subjective analysis, the balancing of hard work and efficient work, and more.

All Gas, No Brakes: Season Review and Offseason Preview with Jacob Hester Jan 24, 2020

We're officially over the National Championship hangover and on to an offseason full of new storylines. Hester stopped by the office to recap the national championship, put the 2019 season in historical perspective, and start looking ahead to 2020. We talk: - The greatest college football team of all time - Favorite moments of the season - LSU's consistency and machine-like approach in 2019 - Coach O's tone-setting and culture-building - Replacing outgoing players and coaches - 18 and 7 - Myles Brennan And much more.

Hurry Up: Get the Nat, Get the Nat, Get the Nat Jan 14, 2020

LSU won the national championship. That's what this episode is about.

Championship Week: 60 Minute Drive for a 60 Minute Game Jan 12, 2020

It's the last preview episode of the national championship game from New Orleans. Jacob Hester and I sat down Friday in his studio to talk about hype videos, high IQ offenses, LSU's contagious culture, and matchups to watch in LSU vs. Clemson. Thanks to 104.5 for allowing us to cross-promote with this audio. Stick around until the end for a special treat.

Championship Week: Media Day Mayhem Jan 11, 2020

LSU went through the ringer of College Football Playoff Championship Media Day, and I came back with an episode that covers a lot of ground and features a lot of voices. - Dave Aranda on Clemson's offense vs. Alabama's defense, coaching with leads, and evaporating fires - Steve Ensminger on what Clemson's defense offers - Joe Brady on coming back to New Orleans and his future at LSU - Joe Burrow on how smart this offense is - Derek Stingley Jr. on no longer being a freshman - Maurice Hampton on emerging in the secondary and balancing football and baseball - Terrace Marshall Jr. on being slept on and staying hungry - Kristian Fulton on finishing his career at home

Championship Week: Kirk Herbstreit and Tom Rinaldi Preview the National Championship Jan 09, 2020

Really excited to be joined by two of the best in the business, Kirk Herbstreit and Tom Rinaldi, on today's show. Both were in town to shoot some interviews for ESPN ahead of Monday's championship game, and both were gracious enough to carve out some time for a special podcast episode.

First up is Kirk, who spent an hour or so with Joe Burrow before sitting down for this interview having one of the most detailed and intelligent football conversations I've ever overheard. Kirk gives us all the analysis and insight you'll need before Monday's game, from both an LSU and Clemson perspective. We talk Joe's genius, the high IQ of the entire offense, what he's learned about trying to slow down LSU's offense, and what Clemson can do to beat LSU.

We finish up with Tom, who indulges some of my own questions about storytelling and interviewing (when you sit down with the master, you pick his brain) before jumping into some of the narratives he's eyeing ahead of this game. We talk Ed Orgeron, native son and redeemed coach, but we also talk Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Steve Ensminger, and the two Joes.

Very happy with how this episode turned out, as the tactical talk with Kirk and the narrative discussion with Tom gives a good picture of all the angles of interest for this game.

Back later this week with more episodes.

Championship Week: Semifinal Rewatch Recap Jan 07, 2020

As Championship Week gets underway and LSU enters the final stages of preparation for Clemson, I wanted to go back and rewatch both semifinal games to see what I could learn.

I learned a lot.

Starting with LSU-Oklahoma and wrapping up with Clemson-Ohio State, here's a recap of my rewatch and some of the notes I took while watching both games. This one is light on guests (as in none) but heavy on numbers, and it's a statistically-loaded appetizer for the week to come.

Topics covered:

- Why LSU's defense is playing like the best unit in the country

- Freshmen finding niches

- Juniors coming into their own

- What LSU's offense did differently against Oklahoma

- Keys to attacking Clemson's defense

- Where Clemson's offense can be slowed down

Hope to be back with more episodes this week, so stay tuned.

Hurry Up: On to the Natty Dec 29, 2019

In its first ever appearance in the College Football Playoff, LSU dismantled Oklahoma in historic, record-breaking fashion, a 63-28 win to move on to the national title game.

A day that started with sorrow ended with football joy, and we focus mostly on football today, as the Tigers are making a case as maybe one of the best teams of all time.

We talk Joe Burrow's record day (again), how Justin Jefferson went off for 14 catches and 228 yards and 4 touchdowns, Chris Curry stepping up for Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Thad Moss being still underrated, Terrace Marshall being a stud, the O-line stepping up, K'Lavon Chaission wreaking havoc, and the pass defense becoming the best in the country.

A slightly different edition of the Hurry Up today: no player audio. Just 50 minutes of analysis and Mailbag questions, because, now, I head to the hospitality room.

See y'all in New Orleans. (Actually, we'll have more episodes before then) .

CFP Semi Preview with Jacob Hester Dec 27, 2019

Enough talk. It's time to play football -- after just a little more talk.

Me and Hester sit down for one final preview of LSU-Oklahoma in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl/CFP semifinal.

We talk about LSU's confidence-borderlining-on-cockiness, Clyde's status, Alex Grinch's defense, matchups we're eyeing, and more.

See you Sunday.

Heisman and Signing Day Recap with Shea Dixon Dec 20, 2019

I'm back from the Heisman, and I brought a friend with me to the podcast.

Friend of the pod and recruiting guru of Geaux247 Shea Dixon joins today's show to recap all the Heisman festivities and give us a break down of the 19 signees LSU landed Wednesday during the early signing period.

Shea and I were around all weekend as Joe Burrow took home the first Heisman trophy for LSU in 60 years, so we recap what that experience was like from the inside. Then, Shea breaks down LSU top-five ranked class, how it can get better, and who can make an impact early.

Hope to be back from Atlanta for a Peach Bowl preview on the 26th or 27th.

Live from Atlanta: 1-on-1 with Ja'Marr Chase Dec 12, 2019

Ja'Marr Chase is shocked to be where he is.

We're in Atlanta for the College Football Awards, and Ja'Marr is a finalist for the Biletnikoff Award, given annually to the nation's best receiver.

In my opinion, he's the clear favorite, and by the time you're listening to this episode, he may very well have taken it home.

After he finished up his media duties this morning, we sat down for 15 minutes to talk about his season, his development, and his dancing.

What you'll hear is a humble, low-key kid who makes big plays on the field but prefers to stay in his hotel room away from it. He's like so many of his teammates: he loves playing football, but he hates talking about himself.

That's okay: I made him do it anyway, and we talk "The Mop," his basketball career, how much fun this offense has been to play in, and why I was afraid I might cost his teammates a half of football and get yelled at by Coach O.

Stay tuned for more updates from the postseason awards tour.

Hurry Up: Anybody, Anywhere Dec 08, 2019

LSU is the best team in the SEC.

They look like the best team in the country, too.

Lots to get to on today's show. Interviews with Joe Brady, Joe Burrow, Justin Jefferson, Terrace Marshall, Derek Stingley Jr., and more.

Breakdown of the Tigers' 37-10 win over Georgia.

Burrow's Heisman moment, again.

Stingley's stellar showing.

Brady's future.

And why we should all savor every moment of this magical season.

Jacob Hester Looks Back on an Unforgettable Senior Night and Previews the SEC Championship Game Dec 03, 2019

Count on a No. 18 to deliver his best performance when the stakes are highest.

Hester is back, and we dive deep into the 12-0 Tigers, their 50-7 win over A&M, and their upcoming matchup with Georgia in the SEC Championship Game.

We talk Joe Burreaux's incredible Senior Night tribute, his development in two seasons at LSU, this Clyde Edwards-Helaire run, take a Clyde victory lap, quickly discuss Joe Brady's future, break down the defense's dominance vs. A&M, and go all in on a LSU-UGA preview.

This is my favorite Hester episode of the season. Enjoy!

Hurry Up: Joe Burreaux Dec 01, 2019

An iconic moment for an iconic player.

Joe Burrow ran out for Senior Night wearing a custom jersey with Burreaux on the back.

Then, he re-wrote the SEC passing record books and exacted a little revenge on Texas A&M.

We talk about LSU's 50-7 win, Burrow's moment in LSU lore, the defense's rebound and answer of the call, Cade York crushing kicks, and more.

We also hear from K'Lavon Chaisson, Ja'Marr Chase, Rashard Lawrence, and, yes, Joe Burrow.

BONUS EPISODE: That’s Joe Nov 27, 2019

Before Joe Burrow's explosion this season, before his rise from Heisman afterthought to Heisman frontrunner, before Ohio State's surplus became LSU's superstar, there was almost no one who could've seen it coming.

Except for Burrow, his family, and everyone in The Plains, who saw it coming all along, because they'd seen it before.

A special episode of Hey Fightin’ Podcast, this is the extended audio version of That’s Joe, a story previously published in text form at LSUSports.net. This episode contains extended audio cuts and dives just a bit deeper than its written companion.

Special thanks:

- Jimmy, Robin, Joe, and The Burrow Family

- Nathan White, Ryan Adams, Sam Smathers, Sam and Tom Vander Ven, Jeff Skinner, and everyone at Athens High

- The folks at GiGi’s Country Kitchen in The Plains, Ohio

- Ray Kostohryz for providing the Joe Burrow musical mix at the beginning of the show

- Matt Tornquist, the Joe Burrow of college football video production - You, the listener

Hurry Up: Business As Usual Nov 24, 2019

It was a 56-20 win, the program's first SEC West title in eight years, and the scene for yet more offensive records.

Or, in Joe Burrow's words, "business as usual."

It was also the pre-Thanksgiving appetizer for next week's main course. Unfinished business with Texas A&M.

We start today's show by discussing the unexpected tone in the wake of the win over Arkansas. Ed Orgeron switched it up, and his players followed suit.

There wasn't a big celebration. There wasn't a lot of joking around or joviality. There was, instead, a sense of supreme focus that had already turned its attention to the Aggies.

You can read about that here, or you can listen to it on this episode.

Later, after we do eventually break down the victory and the records and the offense's show and the defense's improvement. Then, we answer some listener questions, and we also hear from Clyde Edwards-Helaire, JaCoby Stevens, Jacob Phillips, and Thad Moss.

Zach Von Rosenberg on Radical Transformations, Pitching and Punting, Overcoming Failure, and Taking the Micro View Nov 20, 2019

No one's story is quite like Zach Von Rosenberg's.

The 29-year-old punter played six years of professional baseball before joining LSU in 2016, where he bounced from quarterback to tight end to, finally, punter.

Now, he's one of the best in the country, a field-flipping weapon who consistently pins foes deep in their own territory and who holds field goals and extra points for one of the top-scoring offenses in SEC history.

His unique journey has given him unique insight into LSU's rise to the top of college football, and we dive deep into both. We discuss all things special teams – Greg McMahon's impact on the room, Cade York's development, his breakthrough in 2017 at Tennessee – but we also dig into his story: how he overcame the first failure of his life after six years of college baseball; how he bounced between positions and gained and lost weight to try and find his role with the Tigers; how he's watched Joe Burrow turn into the best quarterback in college football from the front row.

This is one of the most interesting and unique conversations I've had on this show all season. Sit back, grab a glass of red wine, and enjoy.

Hurry Up: Keep on Dancing Nov 17, 2019

LSU moves to 10-0 after another offensive explosion in a 58-37 win over Ole Miss.

On today's Hurry Up, I break down why you should worry less about the defense and focus more on the Tigers' offensive juggernaut and their place atop college football. While the defense has work to do, there's plenty of reason for dancing after a 10-0 start.

We also hear from Joe Burrow, Justin Jefferson, Ja'Marr Chase, Thad Moss, and Coach O after the win.

Mailbag: Joe Burrow Feature, Joe Brady's Future, Ja'Marr and Justin's Wrinkle, Non-Burrow MVPs, and More Nov 14, 2019

Fresh off a win over Alabama and the release of our Joe Burrow feature (finally!), I'm taking your questions for the first ever mailbag edition of Hey Fightin' Podcast.

I did my best to answer your questions about Joe Burrow, Joe Brady, Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, as well as my non-Burrow MVP, when I realized this team was going to be special, and how LSU's offensive line adapts this week.

Check out our Joe Burrow feature here (Chapter 1 of the video is here, too; more Chapters to come in the coming weeks): http://lsul.su/ThatsJoe

Hurry Up: Here Come the Tigers Nov 10, 2019

"Lead with the heart, and the body will follow." Clyde Edwards-Helaire said it best, and he and his team lived it out on Saturday night. LSU lead with the heart in Tuscaloosa, and they came back with a 46-41 win and an inside track at the SEC West title and the College Football Playoffs. We get away from the stats and tactics today, and we dig into the emotions. There were tears and laughs and smiles and shouts after the game, from the field to the locker room to the plane and the airport in Baton Rouge. I want to make sure you experience all that. We'll come back later in the week with the analysis. Today is about something bigger than that. We also hear from Clyde, Joe, Coach O, Jets, Ja'Marr, and JaCoby. Here Come the Tigers.

Marty Smith on the Humanity, History, and Authenticity of LSU-Alabama + LSU defensive line coach Bill Johnson Nov 07, 2019

Stay away from brick walls while listening to this one, because after hearing Marty Smith, you'll want to run through one.

No one in sports has more passion or compassion than ESPN's Marty Smith, today's guest on the show. He views sports as a vehicle to understand people, and big games – like LSU vs. Alabama – are, for him, stages on which we see the very best qualities humanity has to offer.

Authenticity. Vulnerability. Passion. Pride.

All of that comes through in today's conversation with Marty, and I'm grateful to have been able to get him for a few minutes.

We talk about, among many other things:

- Ed Orgeron as an American treasure

- Joe Burrow, the ultimate competitor, something Marty saw long before Joe wore purple and gold

- The magnitude and rarity of No. 1 vs. No. 2

- His incredible book, "Never Settle: Sports, Family, and the American Soul," and how the proceeds are benefiting students across the country

After that, we sit down with LSU defensive line coach Bill Johnson and run through the men in the trenches who will help determine Saturday's outcome.

Big Stage, Small Margins: Previewing Bama Week with Jacob Hester Nov 04, 2019

Hester's back to preview LSU-Alabama. 1 vs. 2. Heisman hopeful vs. Heisman hopeful. Tigers vs. Tide. No biggie.

First, we recap Coach O's Monday press conference, including:

- Joe Brady's impact on the offense

- Dave Aranda's vast playbook on defense

- Burrow's historic impact on the program

- Personnel updates on defense

Then, we sit down with Hester to talk:

- The most important matchup of the game

- Bama's knack for YAC

- Burrow's insane preparation

- Burrow vs. Tua under pressure

- Red zone O's and Red zone D's

- Special teams

No better place to start your week than here. Back later this week with more content.

Hurry Up: 8-0 Oct 27, 2019

There's pretty wins, and there's gritty wins.

Saturday's 23-20 win over Auburn was the latter for LSU, but it was a top-10 win in which the Tigers will feel like they have plenty of room for improvement.

Not a bad place to be heading into the bye week.

Plenty to talk about on today's Hurry Up, including:

- Auburn's surprising defensive scheme

- LSU's defensive dominance

- Playing to strengths vs. taking what's given

- Joe Burrow being tougher than nails

- Derek Stingley being a dude

- Clyde Edwards-Helaire being a dude

Derek Stingley Jr. talks Mannequins, Ballet, and Having an Elite Mentality Oct 23, 2019

Not much gets under Derek Stingley Jr.'s skin.

Traffic. A perfectly thrown back shoulder pass. Department store mannequins.

Other than that, the young man is as unflappable as he is humble.

LSU's freshman cornerback sat down for our latest episode to talk about his fast start to college football and how he's handling the spotlight of being one of the best players in the country, regardless of age.

Among the topics covered:

- How he bounced back vs. Florida

- Basketball and ballet

- What scares him about department store mannequins

- His grandfather's paralyzing football injury never deterring him from playing the sport he loves

- Fiesta Bowl practices

- Handling stardom at 18 years old

After that, we hear from LSU safeties coach Bill Busch, who talks about his players' performance against Mississippi State, as well as an older interview with cornerbacks coach Corey Raymond from after the Utah State game.

Hurry Up: That's When the Genius Comes Out Oct 20, 2019

Well, we all knew this day would come. The day when LSU's offense would score only 36 points, tally only 400+ yards of offense, and Joe Burrow would only throw for 327 yards, 4 touchdowns, and set the school record for single-season touchdown passes. Somehow, LSU survived. The Tigers knocked off Mississippi State in Starkville despite, yes, a blunt offensive start -- particularly in the red zone. That's because, as Grant Delpit said after the game, Dave Aranda's "genius comes out." The Professor threw out some new defensive looks, and the Tigers got stops and turnovers aplenty, buying time for the offense to find its feet. On today's show, we break down all the action from the game and the audio from the postgame. We cover: - Joe Burrow's record day - JaCoby Stevens and Delpit's combination - What went wrong in the red zone - Kristian Fulton finally breaking the ice - Bunch formations - Cloud 3 - And more

Breiden Fehoko on Growing up in Hawaii, Haka, and his LSU Ohana + James Cregg on LSU's Offensive Line Oct 16, 2019

Breiden Fehoko joins us for the 23rd episode of Hey Fightin' Podcast on his 23rd birthday.

Breiden's story is incredible, from growing up in Hawaii to transferring to LSU and everything in between. On today's show, he talks about meeting Dave Aranda in middle school, lying on a permission slip to get his butt whipped at football camp, being the youngest (and the most spoiled) Fehoko, and how his family has come to love LSU.

He also talks about the Haka, mana, ohana, $9 milk, and, oh yes, LSU's win over Florida last weekend.

After that, we talk with LSU offensive line coach James Cregg, who breaks down what made the Tigers' front so successful against a talented Florida defense. Coach Cregg talks about Lloyd Cushenberry's leadership, Damien Lewis' love for the game, Adrian Magee's emergence, Ed Ingram's return, the development of Saahdiq Charles and Austin Deculus, and the depth behind those guys in Dare Rosenthal, Chasen Hines, and others.

Hurry Up: Don't Let Good Enough Get in the Way of Greatness Oct 13, 2019

LSU's offense proves itself against an elite defense, and LSU's defense makes the necessary adjustments and crunch time plays to knock off Florida in a statement-making win.

On today's Hurry Up, we break down the offense's pedal to the metal mentality and the defense's critical tweak to get off the field in the second half. We talk about the offensive trio (soon to be quartet) no one has an answer for as well as the incredible performance of LSU's offensive line.

We also break down Derek Stingley and K'Lavon Chaisson's second half contributions and hear from a ton of players, including Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Lloyd Cushenberry, Glen Logan, Chaisson, and Burrow.

All that and more on a Hurry Up following a 42-28 win over Florida.

Bonus Episode: Garrett Brumfield on LSU's Offense, the Florida Rivalry, The Barbershop, Joe Burrow's Weirdness, Lloyd Cushenberry's IQ, Comedy, Movies, Aliens, and So, So Much More Oct 10, 2019

When I started this podcast, I had one regret: that it wasn't around when Garrett Brumfield was a current player.

Bruiser is one of the smartest, most eclectic, and most talented athletes I've ever covered, and he is the perfect podcast guest.

So, lucky me, I bumped into Bruiser in football ops the other day, and we made it happen.

He joins me today for a bonus episode, and it wanders all over the place. Yes, we do talk about LSU's offense, including Joe Burrow – who is as odd as Brumfield – as well as the rivalry with Florida and being a part of the #ForeverLSU family.

But, we also dive into some of Brumfield's passions: writing, comedy, movies, podcasts, aliens, and, of course, football.

This is a wide-ranging episode, but I think it's one you'll enjoy.

Your favorite No. 18 returns just over a decade after he ran over Florida in a legendary win in Tiger Stadium.

Yes, we talk about that game, including a mistake Hester made which he considers the greatest of his football career, but we also talk about Saturday's matchup between two undefeated SEC rivals and what we learned from LSU's win over Utah State.

We talk K'Lavon Chaisson, Derek Stingley, Clyde Edwards-Helaire, slowing down Florida's pass rush, cornerback depth, and much more.

Hurry Up: Defense Goes Warp Speed, Offense Pumps Brakes in 42-6 Win Over Utah State Oct 06, 2019

LSU's defense had its best outing of the season, holding the nation's ninth-ranked offense without a touchdown. The Tiger offense slowed things down a bit, but other than a few loose plays, continued their dominance, and Joe Burrow stayed right at the front of the Heisman race.

On today's Hurry Up, we recap the win with plenty of player and coach audio.

- The Number: 7

- The Play: Goalline Stand (sorta)

- Game Balls: Jets, Queen, and ZVR's Cab

- Press Play: Burrow, Thad, Chase and Fehoko on Stingley, and more

- Questions: Coach O's and Yours

Back later in the week with another Hester episode.

Hester's Back with a Look Back on Act I and a Look Ahead to Act II Sep 30, 2019

Act I is a wrap, the bye week is over, and LSU is on to Act II of the 2019 season.

It's episode No. 18 for HFP, so we bring in our favorite No. 18 to talk LSU football. Jacob Hester is back to break down everything we've learned about the Tigers through four games and what to keep an eye out for over the coming weeks.

We talk Joe Burrow's historic start, the running game's growth through four weeks, Ed Ingram's return to the offensive line, getting healthy on defense, Kristian Fulton in the nickel, Derek Stingley doing unprecedented things, and the confidence LSU's special teams is exuding.

We also talk Arsenal, Everton, Florida, and Utah State.

Hurry Up: Broken Records Sep 22, 2019

That sweet, sweet sound you're hearing in your ears on today's show might sound like the gentle rise and fall of the ocean's waves, but it's really the sound of a broken record.

That's right: I feel like I've recorded this podcast before. I haven't, of course, because LSU just beat Vanderbilt 66-38, and I break down all that actions, as usual, with some help from the locker room sound and the box score.

But I'm starting to repeat myself, because every time we talk, the Tigers are breaking offensive records, and I'm talking about how incredible they're performing. Today, it was Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase teaming up for the fireworks in Nashville. We talk about that, and we also give out game balls to a special teams standout who scored once and nearly twice, a freshman defender whose legend can't stop growing, and we hear from Burrow on that sideline confrontation.

We also take a crack at what questions Coach O will face at his next presser, including injuries and defensive lapses.

Enjoy this episode, then enjoy the bye week. We'll be back before Utah State.

Jacob Phillips and JaCoby Stevens on High School Rivalries and Going Home + Tommie Robinson on LSU's Running Backs Sep 17, 2019

Who is the real Mr. Football for Tennessee in 2017? LSU went into the Volunteer State three classes ago to pluck a pair of five stars in JaCoby Stevens and Jacob Phillips from the Nashville metro area, and both Tigers will return there Saturday for a clash with Vanderbilt.

They talk (9:00) about going home for a road game, but they also talk a little trash about a high school rivalry that turned into a college friendship. They also talk about the growth each has seen in the other, as well as the development of LSU's 2019 defense.

After a great chat with Jacob and JaCoby, we sit down with LSU running backs coach Tommie Robinson to talk about his vision for the Tigers' backs in this new offense, the fit of Clyde Edwards-Helaire, the experience of Lanard Fournette, the development of the younger backs, and how recruits have responded to the system.

We also update, early in the show, the status of a few defensive players who've picked up injuries in recent weeks, and we hear from Ed Orgeron on the improvement of Joe Burrow.

Hurry Up: Don't Scream. Scheme. Sep 15, 2019

A 65-14 win over Northwestern State showed us a few things about LSU. The offense has its identity. The defense is still finding its, but learned a lot Saturday and showed its adaptability. And Coach O is having a lot of fun.

On tonight's show, we talk about Joe Burrow continuing to build a Heisman resume, Terrace Marshall stealing touchdowns, and Dave Aranda fixing things at halftime. We talk about killer instinct and playing up to standards, and we hear from Burrow, Marshall, Jacob Phillips, and JaCoby Stevens. I also posit a theory: it's better to start slow and get better than dominate early and let up late.

Pursuing Perfection with Blake Ferguson + Special Teams Coordinator Greg McMahon on Cade York, Derek Stingley, Avery Atkins, and Special Teams Stars Sep 11, 2019

Senior longsnapper Blake Ferguson joins today's show for a wide-ranging conversation that starts with LSU's win over Texas and ends with Chelsea-Arsenal banter.

In between, we get into some fascinating stuff: Blake's craftsmanlike approach to his trade, how he and his brother got into the longsnapping game, how his parents have been at every LSU game since 2012, and the inner workings of the special teams room. He talks about Cade York's poise, Zach Von Rosenberg's work ethic, and which special teamers came to football from soccer backgrounds.

After that, special teams coordinator Greg McMahon jumps on to break down York's recruitment and early success, Ferguson's leadership, Avery Atkins' consistency, and the culture of special teams at LSU as a launchpoint for young stars in the making.

LSU fans know as well as anyone: special teams gets overlooked until it starts making mistakes, and since McMahon's addition to the program before the 2018 season, mistakes have been few and far between.

Hurry Up: Fireworks in Austin as LSU's Offense Rewrites the Record Books in the Air Sep 08, 2019

Joe Burrow threw for 471 yards.

Justin Jefferson, Terrace Marshall, and Ja'Marr Chase all went for 100+ receiving yards.

The defense got two goalline stops and a few big performances, doing enough to get the win, 45-38, over Texas.

WHOOOOOOOOOO BOY.

We touch on that and more in today's hurry up, with sound from Joe Burrow and, later, interviews from (in this order) Chase, Jefferson, Marshall, and Cushenberry.

It's 3:14 a.m., so I'm going home now. See y'all later this week.

Grant Delpit on Milk, Media, Music, Fashion, and Texas + Jacob Hester on the X's and O's of the Longhorn and the Tigers Sep 06, 2019

A lot has changed in the last year for Unanimous All-American Grant Delpit. His breakout sophomore season has transformed him from precocious talent to media darling. We talk about the spotlight always shining on him in the latest episode of Hey Fightin' Podcast. We also talk about his milk-fueled high school growth spurt and preview the Texas game.

Before that, Jacob Hester dives deep on the X's and O's of Saturday's game. How will LSU handle Todd Orlando's defense? What does Dave Aranda have up his sleeve for Sam Ehlinger? What are the matchups to look out for?

Didn't do the housekeeping on the episode, so don't forget to subscribe/rate/review/share.

Justin Jefferson on Breaking Out, Moving to the Slot, and Following in His Family's Footsteps + Mickey Joseph and Georgia Southern Wrap Up Sep 03, 2019

Fresh off a breakout season in 2018 and a stellar start to 2019, junior wide receiver Justin Jefferson joins the show (22:45) for an extended sit down.

Justin dives deep into being the third Jefferson brother to wear the purple and gold, growing up around the program, and breaking out as a sophomore after showing up late as a freshman – when half the team thought he was a walk on. He also discusses some of the outside-the-box approaches the wide receivers implemented this offseason to make sure they're catching more passes and dropping fewer.

Before that, I put a bow on the win over Georgia Southern with some deep statistical dives into the passing game, the offensive line, and a couple of surprising defensive standouts. We also sit down with LSU wide receivers coach Mickey Joseph (15:20) to break down the success of the passing game in week one, when 14 players caught passes.

Hurry Up: Everybody Eats in LSU's 55-3 Win over Georgia Southern Sep 01, 2019

Welcome to the first installment of The Hurry Up, a name I came up with five seconds before recording.

LSU opened the season with a 55-3 win over Georgia Southern in which the Tigers' spread offense shined and the defense shut down the triple option attack of the Eagles.

I talk about a couple of things that stood out to me in the game, and we hear from Ed Orgeron, Terrace Marshall, and Justin Jefferson -- but not Joe Burrow, who was swarmed by a startling number of reporters after the game.

If you liked this concept -- quick reaction to the game immediately afterward, with less focus on production value and more focus on timeliness -- let me know, and I'll keep it up for the rest of the season.

If you didn't like it, let me know that, too, and I'll happily head home after the game an hour sooner.

It's Here! + Chris Blair Previews Georgia Southern Aug 29, 2019

It's that second when you wake up,

And, sometime between the moment your eyes open

And your feet hit the floor, realizing

It's here.

It's that feeling in your gut,

It's Christmas morning and the first day of summer,

And just a hint of a fall breeze.

It's being a kid again.

It's packing up the ice chest

And firing up the grill.

It's spirit and sunshine

And Victory Hill.

It's stopping by Mike's cage

Just to say hello.

It's four familiar notes

And zero chance of rain.

It's screaming for the Tigers

And coming home with a sore throat.

It's the glory of the Purple Gold

And victory for LSU.

After that, Chris Blair joins to preview LSU vs. Georgia Southern and talk about his new podcast, "Hearing Voices."

Camp Standouts with Jacob Hester + Beer and Wine in Tiger Stadium with Robert Munson Aug 26, 2019

Camp is over. Football season is here.

The Tigers are less than a week from opening the season against Georgia Southern at home, and today's focus is on LSU. Camp is over, so which players stood out in the practices and closed scrimmages? We discuss that and more with former LSU running back Jacob Hester.

After that, LSU senior associate athletic director Robert Munson hops on to talk beer, wine, and spiked seltzer in Tiger Stadium. After passage of a new SEC policy allowing universities to sell alcohol to the public inside stadiums during games, LSU has worked endlessly to get ready for game day. We talk with Robert about the questions, logistics, and preparations for a new era inside Tiger Stadium.

We also talk about my dad. So, there's that.

JaCoby Stevens on Changing Positions, John D. Rockefeller, Perfectionism, Opening Up, and Breaking Out in a New Defense Aug 22, 2019

JaCoby Stevens bounced around between positions for the better part of two seasons at LSU, before breaking out late in 2018 as a star safety.

His transformation at LSU, however, extends well beyond defensive schemes.

The junior safety sat down for a wide-ranging, eye-opening 30 minute conversation on everything from Rockefeller to the LSU Barbershop (where he has recently ascended to first chair) to considering transferring and finally finding a home where he started all along.

JaCoby also talks growing up an LSU fan in Tennessee, inventing the College Football Playoff, his top five cereals, and he constructs an offense made entirely of Tiger defensive players.

Trust me: you don't want to miss this conversation with one of the smartest football players – one of the smartest people, period – you'd ever be lucky enough to sit down with.

Back next week with a camp wrap-up and, believe it or not, the first game week of the season.

Preseason Game #2 Recap + ESPN's Rece Davis Aug 19, 2019

LSU completed its second preseason game of the fall on Saturday, and we were there to take in all the action and hear from Coach O afterward. We talk about the depth at receiver on a day where the offense shined and take a look at the battle at left guard.

Later in the show, ESPN College Gameday host Rece Davis joins us to give an outsider's perspective on the Tigers, as well as a look at the College Football Playoff race. Rece also talks about growing up in the South as a college football fan and what it's like to work in his dream job.

Come back later this week, when we'll have more conversations with players and plenty of news to break down from the last week of fall camp.

Thaddeus Moss + Dave Aranda's Aggressive Changes on Defense Aug 15, 2019

On today's show, we sit down with LSU junior tight end Thaddeus Moss (16:33), who is healthy and producing this fall for the Tigers. Thad talks about growing up in the limelight of his father, Randy Moss — the greatest receiver of all time. He also dives deep into the frustrations of an injury-riddled 2018 campaign that kept him off the field, his offseason focus on getting healthy for the 2019 season, and his success so far this fall in LSU's new-look offense.

Before that, we take look at Dave Aranda's new-look defense, which features a more aggressive approach. After three seasons on the job, Aranda realized he needed to alter his tactics to get the most out of a 2019 unit full of versatile athletes.

Stephen Sullivan: From Sleeping Under a Bridge to Walking Across a Graduation Stage Aug 08, 2019

Stephen Sullivan never imagined he'd graduate from college. But that's what LSU's senior tight end did last week. He sits down on this week's episode of HFP (18:39) to talk about his life. From sleeping under a bridge and in hotel rooms to becoming the first in his family to graduate high school and college, Sullivan enters his final season more motivated than ever and ready to break out in a new position.

Before that conversation, we break down some early storylines in camp, including the improvement of the offensive line, the impressive wide receivers, and the impatient freshman.

Also, we hear about one LSU player who has been carrying bricks in his back pack all summer.

Don't forget to leave a five star rating, write up a short (or long) review, and share HFP with all your friends.

After that, Cody sits down with the two newest members of the No. 18 fraternity: center Lloyd Cushenberry and edge rusher K'Lavon Chaission. Cushenberry talks growing up a Tiger fan, flipping on Signing Day, and being an LSU football historian, while Chaisson talks overcoming last season's knee injury and his grandmother's unfortunately timed preseason purchases.

While you're here, go ahead and give us a five-star rating, write a short review, and share HFP with your friends and family.
