Welcome to the tank. 00:01:26 Speaker 6: Oh, thank you, man, appreciate you guys having me. 00:01:29 Speaker 2: And so like. 00:01:30 Speaker 1: Brian spent his career trying to take the head off of guys like yourself. 00:01:34 Speaker 2: So you're still cool. 00:01:35 Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely cool, Man long S. We're on the same team. 00:01:37 Speaker 3: It's one thing, man, right, you know what I mean, be Walks, but he was on my squad. 00:01:41 Speaker 5: Now some dudes from other teams. I don't want anything to. 00:01:43 Speaker 2: Do with it. 00:01:43 Speaker 5: Still to this day, you know what I mean. 00:01:45 Speaker 6: You have been known to hold a grudge forever. 00:01:48 Speaker 2: Juice loves the good grudge. 00:01:49 Speaker 1: So if the name Brian Walker doesn't jump out at you, perhaps it should, especially if you think back to the two thousand season, Right led the Dolphins with seven interceptions in the secondary that all so had names like Madison, Cirtan Marion, but it was this guy. 00:02:03 Speaker 2: It was Walker who led the team in receptions. 00:02:06 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about all of that, but I want to go back even further than two thousand. 00:02:10 Speaker 2: We're gonna go all the way back to Colorado Springs where he knows it's coming, where you grew up. Is it Widefield High? 00:02:18 Speaker 6: I went to Wyfield High? 00:02:20 Speaker 2: Widefield High. 00:02:20 Speaker 4: The gladiator, the gladiator shout out to all my gladiators out there to him. 00:02:25 Speaker 2: I love that. But so one of those gladiators, and I didn't know this. 00:02:30 Speaker 1: I don't know how I didn't know this, but it was another former Dolphins defensive back, Sewn sugar Hill. 00:02:36 Speaker 2: You went to high school with Sean Hill? How did I know? How did I not know that? 00:02:41 Speaker 6: I'm not sure. 00:02:42 Speaker 4: You know, they should have connected it, and you were in the media guy to help putting that together, and they never built that connection. 00:02:48 Speaker 6: We didn't say anything, but you know, yeah. 00:02:50 Speaker 2: Well I guess you guys. 00:02:51 Speaker 1: I think his last year was right before you got here, So maybe I just you know, that one slipped past me. 00:02:56 Speaker 2: But I thought that was pretty crazy. 00:02:58 Speaker 1: So of course I had to call sugar and said, hey, man, tell me something about b Walk. He's like, well, I was two years older than him. So I didn't really hang out with him. He was a sophomore when I was a senior. But he said, well, first of all, he said you were you were a quarterback and a safety. 00:03:11 Speaker 2: Is that right? Yeah, so he played both sides of the I know you. 00:03:15 Speaker 5: Did athletes those things. 00:03:17 Speaker 2: Is that the way it goes? 00:03:18 Speaker 4: Yeah, well it's supposed to now it's just a little bit different, but yeah, back then, definitely. 00:03:23 Speaker 6: Yeah. 00:03:24 Speaker 1: Well, speaking of athleticism, the word on the streets now from sugar Hill is that he thought your best sport was actually in the hardwood. He said, you were a big time hooper. So tell us about playing basketball at Whitefield. 00:03:38 Speaker 4: High A fun time, I mean, and you couldn't tell me I was not a basketball player. Football was something I just did to hang out with my buddies. But my brother and my uncle they went state in high school. I just grew up in that culture. I was one of those kids watching TV, like working on a goose neck, laying down, and I just loved the game of hoop and I still do. But I just can't play anymore. Snap my kileis and everything. Trying to do some things that I used to do when I was younger, right, But uh, basketball, I just loved the game of basketball, and it just got to a point where you see, I knew I was kind of good, but then you've seen really good at another level to where it's like I'm gonna go with football, right, you know. 00:04:23 Speaker 1: So that's what it was. That And I mean, so you were you're what about six to one, and so what did you play? Were you a point where you were shooting guard? What was your position? 00:04:32 Speaker 4: It was really I played it all because I could jump higher than our center even though I wasn't tall, but I could judge john positions. 00:04:39 Speaker 6: So the jump ball, I was in the middle of the you know, the circle. 00:04:43 Speaker 4: But uh, it was just basically give me the ball wherever I went bad and ball I played at all. 00:04:51 Speaker 2: So how did he not end up at your court? 00:04:53 Speaker 5: I know that's a great question. B Why weren't you at the court? 00:04:56 Speaker 4: Well, I didn't really get the official invite. 00:05:00 Speaker 6: Let's just start that. 00:05:01 Speaker 4: The official even though I probably was welcomed, But back in those days, I didn't have anything left. When we played or off day or they said we're going to Little Juice's house to hoop, I was done. I already had two workouts, and I was like, I can't go over there and you know, misrepresent myself. 00:05:20 Speaker 6: I go out there and hang out. 00:05:21 Speaker 2: You didn't want to put anything bad on tape, is what you're well. 00:05:25 Speaker 5: You know, all all football players think they can hoop. 00:05:28 Speaker 3: We definitely all feel like we can hoop, man, and I know that having that talent out there, I can't believe be walk one of the you know, toughest dudes I know out there. 00:05:36 Speaker 5: Big Seth was afraid of the competition out there. Seems like, oh wait, that's what it seems like to me. All I'm here as excuses right now. 00:05:44 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I was just tired. But I did hear that they have some pretty competitive games over there. 00:05:51 Speaker 2: Some serious games. Yeah, some serious games. 00:05:53 Speaker 1: I don't know if you would have played all five positions out there though, when you started having down in the paint, you started having JT and Mark Dixon. 00:06:00 Speaker 6: Yeah you couldn't. 00:06:01 Speaker 4: I was gonna stay out of Yeah, I smart, man, Yeah, no point going in there, man and JT files and JT files all the time. 00:06:11 Speaker 5: And then he gets mad when you call a foul on his ass. That's true. 00:06:14 Speaker 4: He's one of those guys, one of those guys, okay, ball, that's it all the time. 00:06:19 Speaker 5: That's why I got rid of one. 00:06:20 Speaker 2: And I'm not going to comment because I still need to stay in. 00:06:22 Speaker 3: Right as I got rid of one because people want to call and one call their own file and they didn't want the bucket too. If you call your own file, you're not getting bucket in my crib. 00:06:31 Speaker 1: He has been known to kick a ball over the The soccer. 00:06:35 Speaker 5: Game was nice, JT. Soccer game was nice, that's for sure. 00:06:37 Speaker 6: He's very competitive, as we all know. 00:06:40 Speaker 3: You know, be if Colorado wasn't far enough north and west, you know, from US Florida folk, Uh, you end up traveling another eighteen hours north and west to play your final two seasons of college boy at Washington State. You may not know this or the guy we met before, Travis Wingfield. 00:06:57 Speaker 5: He's also a Washington State grad. 00:06:59 Speaker 3: And I'm gonna tell you what Seth and I all day, whenever we're doing anything, we hear go cool all the time, I mean every since we were working with Travis. Clearly you know he loved this time there. But how did you end up in Washington State and what was the experience there like for you? 00:07:22 Speaker 5: Yeah? 00:07:23 Speaker 4: I added it because it's a it's a story that it's I don't want to be long winded with it, but I got to tell you. 00:07:31 Speaker 6: So a guy named Mike Zimmer, I don't know if you remember him. 00:07:34 Speaker 4: He was a coach for the Cowboys, coach for Minnesota Vikings. 00:07:39 Speaker 6: He was a defensive back coach for Washington State. 00:07:42 Speaker 4: So when I I had rewinded because I went to a jukeo first, ended up getting into a little, you know, little situation up there where I had to sit a year off. So after my year off, I had to use it as a red shirt year. I thought my football career was over at that point actually, So then Washington State was one of the first teams of cars say hey, you know you got you get your grades, you get one of two credits here and there. 00:08:07 Speaker 6: We'll bring you in. We want to play you, we want to offer you a scholarship. 00:08:12 Speaker 4: So Mike Zimmer comes to my house and he's the only coach that actually came to my house and you know, met my family and stuff like that. 00:08:20 Speaker 6: So that's how I ended up there. 00:08:21 Speaker 4: I was like this guy's commitment to you know, getting a guy who set a whole year off of football to actually come and recruit me and bring me up there and you know, kind of put me in a position to where I can continue my athletic career. I got to go there, so I had some other offers here and there, but it was just kind of like that commitment level. 00:08:40 Speaker 6: Now when I got there, he had left and went to the Cowboys. 00:08:46 Speaker 2: Switch. 00:08:46 Speaker 6: Yeah, it was like he was gone, but. 00:08:49 Speaker 4: I still you know, That's how I ended up at Washington State as opposed to a couple of other schools, and I had a really good experience up there. 00:08:57 Speaker 5: Yeah, no doubt about it. Ryan Leaf was he there when you were there? Yeah? 00:09:01 Speaker 6: He was there when I was there. Good dude, you know, strong arm. 00:09:06 Speaker 4: Yeah, great teammate and uh, you know, I just and it's well documented what went on with him in the league. I wish it would have went a little bit different for him because the type of guy he is and the talent that he is, he just his career deserved better on the field. He got it together and now he's doing great things. 00:09:25 Speaker 3: I love it. 00:09:26 Speaker 5: I followed him amazing. Here's a great follow. 00:09:31 Speaker 4: A great story to have come back and knowing that the game of football is just a game at that point, you still have to live your life, and he's a perfect example of that. 00:09:39 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you finished your career there, You're undrafted in ninety six. 00:09:44 Speaker 2: Don't worry, juice. 00:09:45 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was disappointed with that too. Yeah, yeah, I was. I was hurt with that. 00:09:49 Speaker 2: Yeah, what you had expectations of going? 00:09:52 Speaker 6: Oh no, no, lesser than like the fourth round. 00:09:55 Speaker 2: Really, that's what I was. 00:09:56 Speaker 6: Being told by whom my agent. 00:09:59 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, my agent, And you know, but once I ran my forty, and that's a whole nother story too. 00:10:07 Speaker 5: Here. 00:10:08 Speaker 6: I didn't after our last game. We didn't. 00:10:10 Speaker 4: We didn't do too well once heerion year, and I didn't know about the process, about. 00:10:15 Speaker 6: The pro days or anything like that. 00:10:17 Speaker 4: My agent was kind of telling me, He's like, hey, we're gonna have some guys coming up to Washington State working you out. We're going to bring you back to Colorado training for your forty. Well that was right after the season. So I went, and you know, I'm putting it down and I'm you know, get my starts and all that type of stuff. But I came back to college like a month later. Our pro day wasn't until like two or three months later. I knew nothing about a pro Day. I knew nothing about all the teams coming at one time and do it. So I think, like the Giants and a couple of other teams brought some representatives, uh one day and we ran. I ran like a four to four three and I'm like, oh, I'm good, Yeah, I'm good to go. So I stopped training. I'm thinking, I'm thinking I'm would. 00:11:00 Speaker 2: So I stopped training. 00:11:02 Speaker 6: It's booked. 00:11:03 Speaker 5: You know. 00:11:03 Speaker 6: I wasn't training like I was training. 00:11:05 Speaker 2: I'm not going to name the podcast. So I stopped training. 00:11:08 Speaker 4: This booked this in the book. The b Walk runs Da da da, you know. So time goes on. 00:11:14 Speaker 6: Next thing. My boy, his. 00:11:16 Speaker 4: Name is Chris Hayes. Shout out to my other cougar, Chris Hayes Peto. He he ended up getting uh drafted to the Giants and Green Bay won the Super Bowl and all that stuff. 00:11:24 Speaker 6: But he calls me. He's like, b Walk, where are you at. 00:11:28 Speaker 4: I'm sleeping and he says all the teams are here, and I said talking about He said. 00:11:34 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's Pro day to day. 00:11:35 Speaker 4: Oh man, I've been sleep all day, you know. So I get He's like, man, you get over here. There asking about you. I get to the gym and now it's cold in Pullman, Washington. You just can't warm but it's not like South Florida it's cold. So I get there to the fieldhouse and it is. 00:11:53 Speaker 6: I'm seeing everybody. 00:11:54 Speaker 4: Will stop watching the official teams and I'm spoke. 00:11:57 Speaker 1: Now. 00:11:57 Speaker 4: I'm like, oh no, I ain't ran nothing, and I don't know how long, you know, so now I got to get it. They're like, oh, you know, take your time warm up, and you know, you don't want to have everybody waiting because it was only three of us seniors that they were there to see. 00:12:11 Speaker 6: Man take So yeah, they're like, take your time, warm up. 00:12:15 Speaker 4: I'm warming up, right, I'm warming up, and I'm seeing Chris he's sweating up. 00:12:18 Speaker 6: He's just you know, he's I've been there like three hours before. 00:12:23 Speaker 5: I ran my. 00:12:23 Speaker 6: Forty and it didn't turn. I mean I ran like a. 00:12:25 Speaker 4: D line forty times. Yeah, yeah I did. And so that's what officially got put. 00:12:31 Speaker 2: Out there like somebody run that fore foot like. 00:12:36 Speaker 4: So I was just and that really hurt. That really hurt at that point because they're like, man, this guy slow. It can't be you know, what's going on with them or whatever. So I didn't get drafted the whole I thought maybe I still had a shot, but I've seen guys that I thought that was better than going off the board. And what I realized is in those later rounds. I didn't know that at the time because I was kind of hurt, But those later rounds you kind of want to be a free agent, correct, because now you get a chance to look at who they drafted. You get a chance to saying, oh, I know, you know, they are two guys at my position. 00:13:08 Speaker 6: I want to go there. 00:13:10 Speaker 4: So after the draft I felt like, you know, I was first round there because they was blowing up my phone and all that, you know. 00:13:17 Speaker 1: So that's so the team that that won that recruiting process was Washington. Interestingly enough, Juice a couple of guys that have Dolphins ties. 00:13:26 Speaker 2: North Turner was the head coach. 00:13:28 Speaker 1: Cam Cameron was actually on that staff, but not on the He was on the wrong side of the right. From b walk standpoint, you make the team as an undrafted rookie free agent, you play in all sixteen games you start year two, and in October rolls around and they release you, and so you're kind of out of work for a month or two, and then you get the call. I don't know what, probably Bob Ackles have called you, but you know, you come down to Jimmy Johnson's Miami Dolphins team and it's got a real interesting mix of guys on defense. Right, You've got vets like Timbo, Trace Armstrong, Danny Stubbs. The secondary is stacked. Got t Buck at the safety position. Corey Harris and George t were there, right, you know what do you? Was still here and well, actually I was just what his second year? And then you got these young guys that are rising stars in Zach Thomas, j T two nine, Sam Madison. What was it like going from Washington to end up here with that group of guys. 00:14:31 Speaker 4: Starting from the airport, coming in from Washington, d C. And you know, the winter time and coming to South Florida. 00:14:40 Speaker 6: That was a shock. 00:14:40 Speaker 4: So soon as I got off the plane, I was sweating out and I haven't even got my Now I would have ran, but when I got there, it was so to shock to first of all the weather, getting in and seeing the guys, and I really didn't. 00:15:07 Speaker 6: Know of everybody. And I'm gonna keep it real. I was like, Yo, there's Dad. 00:15:10 Speaker 4: When I got into the locker room, that was my man. I was like, I see, damn Marino, you know, because this was my this is my second year. It's at the end of the year, and you know, I had spent some time at home. But when I come and I see the locker and I've seen a couple of follow a couple of guys, and I knew Zach was up and coming, JT and all the guys that they had just in that locker room, and the culture was just so different from where I was. Well in Washington at that point. It was we had a lot of veterans, Brian Mitchell, Terry Allen. You didn't touch those guys in practice. It wasn't thud, it wasn't go up and butt them up. It wasn't that the locker room was quiet. There was no music. When you get to Miami, the locker room. 00:15:56 Speaker 6: It's thumping up. 00:15:57 Speaker 4: In every it It was just it felt like a fresh air was breathing to my career. My career at that point, even Charlie, you know, getting equipment, you. 00:16:09 Speaker 6: Know, and at that point I still I talked. 00:16:11 Speaker 4: I've seen Charlie like a couple of years ago, and I told him about when I very first came in. 00:16:15 Speaker 6: Man, you kind of disrespected me. 00:16:18 Speaker 2: Really yeah, Oh man, I got to hear more than tally. 00:16:22 Speaker 6: When I came in, I had a little workout between me and another guy. 00:16:25 Speaker 4: They signed me. I was excited, Okay, so I go get my equipment and it's Charlie back there. And if you you know, I didn't know Charlie at first. Charlie was swollen. I thought, yeah, yeah, I see him every now so, and he has that deep voice. So I was like, hey, man, you know, could I get the number forty five? And he's like, no, get the number we give you. Be happy you got a number. 00:16:48 Speaker 2: Okay, Charlie, be appy, you got a number. 00:16:50 Speaker 6: So I'm looking. 00:16:51 Speaker 4: I'm like, you know, I started four games in this lig you disrespectful right now, turned around, got my little stuff, walked on. 00:17:00 Speaker 6: I'm like, it's like that. So it was just. 00:17:03 Speaker 4: Man, it yeah, it was just that opening to me. And then the funny thing about he gave me not the number thirty one. So then they signed Brock. Next thing I see, I see, I see the number forty five. 00:17:13 Speaker 5: That I have for in my lock. 00:17:17 Speaker 1: That is so funny the opposite, like Brock comes in, I gotta buy that number. 00:17:24 Speaker 5: They didna at all. 00:17:26 Speaker 6: I didn't say nothing. I said, you know what I am. I'm glad to be here, you know. 00:17:29 Speaker 4: And uh So it was just so once I got to practice with these guys and really seeing in the off season what these guys were about, and like truly seeing talent, talent and the passion that they had of bringing it every single day. 00:17:43 Speaker 6: Corey Harris when the workout is just such a leader. You know. Teague was over there, and then t Buck was over there. 00:17:48 Speaker 4: It was just being in the room, my defensive back Mel Phillips, It's just even our third down coach, Bill. I mean, it was just everything was just so much detailed and you were accounted for. And when I got here, I didn't. West Off told me the special teams coach. Everybody knows west Off. He told me, He's like, look, you're not a defensive back, You're a special teamer. And I took offense to that too, and I'm like, wait a minute, I ain't never had the block for nobody. 00:18:13 Speaker 2: Charlie heard Mike west Off. 00:18:15 Speaker 3: Now, I was just I was just, you know, what's so funny. He was so excited when he got off the plane all sudden. 00:18:29 Speaker 4: Coach Johnson was like, look, I'll talk to you as much as I talk to you. 00:18:34 Speaker 6: That's as much as I liked you. And he wasn't saying two words to me. 00:18:39 Speaker 4: Ever, he wasn't saying rarely. The first words he told me was like, we're in a special teams meeting. And he put that red dot on me and he said, Walker, if I see this head for one more time and run your ass out of here. 00:18:56 Speaker 6: That was the first words he said, west Off or Jimmy, Jimmy oh. 00:19:00 Speaker 4: Because they made me play the wing on the punt. I never blocked for anybody, and I just it was all new to me. If I blocked on somebody because somebody got an interception, it wasn't where I had to line up against a linebacker who outside rushed like a Derrick Rodgers or Anthony Harris, because that's who they had over there at that point. On the other side. It was Anthony Harris. You know, he's an intense dude. 00:19:24 Speaker 6: I didn't really know how to block, you. 00:19:26 Speaker 5: Know, so. 00:19:30 Speaker 6: One story. 00:19:31 Speaker 4: I got the story and you know his voice is deep, so I really didn't know drafts found but he was. 00:19:39 Speaker 6: World, you know, like I didn't. I understood him, but it just kind of struck me with I'm like, I. 00:19:45 Speaker 2: Got blocked this dude. 00:19:55 Speaker 6: You know, you guys know how is. I wasn't ready for that. I wasn't you know. 00:20:03 Speaker 4: He came across, It took me all back to the punter just kept driving me, trying to embarrass me. 00:20:08 Speaker 6: So I'm kind of like, I wasn't used. 00:20:10 Speaker 4: To that, and that was like a transition from coming to you know, Washington over here. He was like literally trying to embarrass me in practice, which I was like, oh, okay, that's that's where we're at with this thing. And so after him, he did it again. So I said, okay, I'm gonna try my best this time. 00:20:25 Speaker 6: I wasn't ready try my best. I couldn't, you know. 00:20:28 Speaker 4: And it's like six 'y three at that point. He was two one hundred and fifty pounds, right, run and move. I'm barely two hundred punds. Yeah, running four to three, I'm barely two hundred pounds at the most and no blocking experience. So finally west Off comes to me and west Off's like, look, you want to make this team, you better block him. 00:20:46 Speaker 2: Did he tell you how? 00:20:47 Speaker 5: Like? 00:20:47 Speaker 2: Did he coach overs? 00:20:48 Speaker 6: No? 00:20:49 Speaker 2: Just get it done. 00:20:49 Speaker 4: But what I did was I went in and I started watching the wing position on the other side they had like Bracy Walker was over there. 00:20:56 Speaker 6: And I was like, how is he doing this? 00:20:58 Speaker 4: So I'm looking, I'm like, oh, get a little, don't get too wide, and I'm studying. So the next practice I'm like, I'm not going nowhere. I'm like, got my steps back. This works, you know, And uh, I just casually just progressively got better at the block because I seen that was the way to make the team that, you know, I had. 00:21:18 Speaker 6: To do it. 00:21:18 Speaker 3: I had to block so interesting teams, thanks Mike, the same way I started off too. Man, on teams, Seth always wants to give me crap about where I got drafted, But you know, teams is the way I made my you know, made my money. Yeah, yeah, you better, Big Seth hunt and kick off returns. Yeah, well, let's talk about some of the guys that. Let's move on here, big Seth, it's time to move on. You're still stuck on that first round stuff. 00:21:47 Speaker 5: Man, But I was. 00:21:48 Speaker 2: Good until you market. 00:21:52 Speaker 5: But I did make teams. 00:21:53 Speaker 3: Yeah, I did on teams Man White west off is the reason I got drafted where I got. 00:21:58 Speaker 5: But anyhow, we digressed their big self. Let's let's move forward. Can we do that? 00:22:02 Speaker 3: I'm ready all right, you know, you know, let's talk about some of the guys that that Seth mentioned because three out of the next four years, I mean I say three out of four because you spent the ninety nine season in Seattle, but uh, you become you know, key member of that defense and at one point an argument could be made that you and Brock and Sam and Pat might have been the best secondary in the league at that point. What was it like playing with those guys? I mean once you you know, we're still doing teams. 00:22:29 Speaker 5: At that time too. 00:22:29 Speaker 3: When you became part of that group, we still had the teams and that wing, and I. 00:22:33 Speaker 6: Took so much pride in it. 00:22:34 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I was like, you're not taking me all right, Wow, I'm not coming off this what a transition. Yeah, this is another opportunity to make a play instead of taking playoff and get a breath to play the four downs, this is another opportunity for me to make something key and in all actuality, the special teams really helped me in the defensive backfield because when those guys, you know, those guys got picks all the time. I was coming through blocking, getting guys up off of them. Knew how to, you know, do different things that I wouldn't have had before. I didn't learn before, but I learned those on special teams. But playing with those guys that you just mentioned Sam Pat Brock was just I was. 00:23:10 Speaker 6: The and I'm gonna keep it all the way real with you. 00:23:12 Speaker 4: I was that fourth guy that they said, okay, who can we beat offensive coordinators who when it came to game plan, and I knew I. 00:23:20 Speaker 6: Was gonna get game plan because I was the weakest. 00:23:22 Speaker 4: Link is for as far as talent as they seem, which gave me more opportunity. 00:23:28 Speaker 6: Well, they didn't know about me. 00:23:31 Speaker 4: You know, I study, I get up early and I'm leaving late, so I know you coming after me. Then I know some of the big plays that they worked last week, you're gonna try to work those on me. So I was recognizing the formations and that's how I was able to Well. Brock brought me in one day too, and he was like, you know, ay, b one of the best guys I've ever played with. He's told me that, and that like pumped life into me, you know. And then when you see Pat and you see Sam in there, like all on the same page watching film, they're all talking again, they're all communicating. I just didn't want to let those guys down, you know. I just didn't t Buck was in there as well, mentoring some of the guys. You know, it just became a point of where everybody in the same room was on the same page. And when you move that way, and it's unselfish in there, and nobody's jails of each other, nobody's worried about any money, this or that. And that's when we just had a unit that was just and we all know some of the success of the defensive backfield those guys, of course, individual efforts were great, but the guys up front that we had, they ain't had no time to throw the ball. So if you was anywhere close, you was gonna make the play. And with those guys' skills, and I used to tell guys like, just run to the ball. Just if with the corners that we had Pat and Sam, just run to the ball over there, they're gonna tip it. They're gonna intercept it, intercept it or something. You just run to the ball, you're gonna make plays. So it was just it was really it's an honor to play with those guys, because all those guys are gonna be in the Hall of Fame one day, you know they are. They and to just learn from them and and be accepted at them and them know my weaknesses and try to cover up for me, you know, keeping me out of situation. 00:25:10 Speaker 6: That's attribute to Mail as well. 00:25:12 Speaker 4: And I deput the coordinator as well, even Dave, you know, keeping me out of situations that weren't good for me. And I was able to just really show my talents in other areas where I was strong at and those guys understand that and were. 00:25:26 Speaker 6: Still able to play as a unit. 00:25:28 Speaker 4: So that that was really that was the best part of playing with those guys. 00:25:32 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I mean you say that, man, but I think dB night Out might have been the best part of. 00:25:36 Speaker 5: Playing with those guys man, as you indulged in any DV night out B walked. 00:25:40 Speaker 4: Yeah, back in the when I was first there in ninety eight, I went. 00:25:45 Speaker 6: Out one time. 00:25:46 Speaker 2: Yeah, one time, I went out one. 00:25:50 Speaker 4: Time, and I got I've seen the culture of Miami and all this, and I was like, what in the world, you know? 00:25:57 Speaker 2: And I was filled with that. 00:25:58 Speaker 4: But I just couldn't, you know, if we go out and eat and do something like that. I was fine with that. But I just never had any wild nights. I just kind of stay to myself because I needed every juice and everything, every piece of energy that I can get for the next day. 00:26:16 Speaker 6: I was always on the bubble, you know, the kid. 00:26:19 Speaker 4: I was always that guy like, look, there's fifty three guys here, you're forty seven, or at least I felt like that. Once I got to a certain point, I was like, Okay, I'm good, but you still have to make plays. But I always kept that mentality. I had to work harder than everybody else. 00:26:33 Speaker 5: You know. 00:26:33 Speaker 4: I didn't have that luxury of maybe a day or two off or you know, or not really coming to work. 00:26:39 Speaker 6: Focus. 00:26:40 Speaker 4: Every day had to be what it was with me. Get there early, leave late, work hard, show yourself, show up. So I ain't had no time. 00:26:49 Speaker 6: I couldn't. I just didn't have no energy to do anything else, you know. Other than that. 00:26:54 Speaker 1: Makes sense, focus on the right thing, keep the main thing, the main thing, right. 00:26:58 Speaker 6: Was the main thing? 00:26:59 Speaker 5: Yeah? 00:26:59 Speaker 1: Sure, so Juice mentioned it briefly. But you were here for part of ninety seven, all of ninety eight, and then right before the. 00:27:06 Speaker 2: Ninety nine season you were released. 00:27:09 Speaker 1: You go to Seattle and it just felt like, man, you were about to hit your stride as an NFL player, and things kind of went sideways in Seattle. I think you got hurt there, had limited playing time when you were back on the field. It is a little bit wild too that the Dolphins ended Seattle season, because that was you know, the Dolphins went up there in the wildcard round. We beat Seattle. They blew the Kingdome up like three days after we left, knocked the building down, and like a few weeks later, you were down here signing back again. Like any way, you wasted no time. Was this a situation where you just couldn't wait to get the heck out of there and get right back to Miami. 00:27:47 Speaker 4: Yeah, well yes, first of all, because it was raining every day cold, I couldn't wait to get back to that. 00:27:52 Speaker 2: You weren't familiar with that two years in Miami and he knew. 00:27:58 Speaker 4: Yeah, well when I went to Seattle that when I got cut after that training camp. I had a really good training camp, and I was like, I was gonna compete for one of the starting safety spots. I was competing for that, I had a good chance. We're in the preseason and we were playing to see San Diego Chargers. A guy named Robert Baker, what's up? Bake Shake one was the wing on one side, So this was when the twos were going in like the second quarter. So I had to go in on punt, so I looked into Roberts eyes. Robert didn't really get the call of what the call was on the punt with west off and everything. It was like punt left. He had to release the opposite way of the punt. He released the way of the punt. So when I hit my guy and went out to get in my lane, I just see somebody rolling and it was baked. So I tried to jump. He rolled up my leg and my moniscus tore my moniscus. So I didn't get to play, and I was hyped. We were just getting ready to go on on defense. So I got carted off the field and all that. And then what happened was after that, I they said it was gonna take about two or three weeks to hell, So I thought maybe I did enough to make the team. Last day, they come, hey, you know, did a great job. They give you the whole departure. If we had fifty guys like you, yeah, yeah, we'd have a better team than all these types. I had heard this stuff before, however, but anyway, Yeah, so they let me go and I thought, you know, okay, They're like, we're gonna pick you up in about two or three weeks. 00:29:27 Speaker 6: So I said, okay. 00:29:28 Speaker 4: On of they heills, I don't get to you know, be at home and all that type of stuff. Well, Seattle called claim me off. Waivers went over there and and it was hard when I went over because I wasn't healed yet. So they had cut a guy named Louis Riddick. For me was when I got in there, and so I didn't really know that at the time. He was a guy who was playing he still had some some years left, but their defensive backs were really, you know, he was really a good part of that team to where they felt the ways we're gonna cut Lewis and bring this guy in. 00:29:58 Speaker 6: He can't even play like some guys were kind. 00:30:01 Speaker 1: Of boysfous oh, you're saying some of the teammates because he was popular. 00:30:04 Speaker 2: Got it. 00:30:04 Speaker 4: Yeah, some of the guys on Seattle. And so when I came in it was kind of hard. I was like, they, look, they chose me, I didn't, you know, right. So when my knee got better, it finally got better. You know, I was on a mission at that point, like, look, I could play. I don't know what y'all thinking. Yeah, my knee was hurt, you know. So I actually started off the year doing really well and you know, opening up some eyes and we started winning that year a little bit, and I made a couple of good plays, had a couple of picks early on in the season, ended up tearing my hamstring in three places. 00:30:36 Speaker 6: So that's what set me down. 00:30:38 Speaker 4: They didn't put me on ir They're like, they're hoping that would come back, and you know, they have all types of techniques that can maybe get you back, but once you tear your hamstring, you're done for the year. 00:30:47 Speaker 6: Really. So then the year went on, we played Miami and I'm like, oh, in the playoffs, I was like, oh, my boy. 00:30:54 Speaker 5: So it was hard. 00:30:54 Speaker 4: Looking at you, I was I wish I would have played by the same time. I was glad for the Dolphins because I had spent the whole training camp with those guys, So I was hoping those guys would. 00:31:03 Speaker 6: You know, just kind of win and go on. 00:31:06 Speaker 3: You know. 00:31:06 Speaker 6: It was kind of rootful that they did. 00:31:09 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, right, that's that's how that went and Seattle. So then right after the year the year ended, I forgot who who called me, but somebody represented from the Dolphins and called me. It's like, hey, free agency, you gotta you know, do you want to come back here? And I'm like, yes, I'm here already actually, so like yeah, bringing in work right down a lot, right, and I was just I. 00:31:32 Speaker 6: Jumped right in. It was like I never really left. 00:31:34 Speaker 4: And uh so it was I was really glad to hear from the Dolphins at that point. 00:31:38 Speaker 6: Yeah, where I wanted to be. 00:31:39 Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely, I mean like you never left because that year would get go right back to year two thousand, men and Seth talk about a little. 00:31:46 Speaker 5: Bit of the top of the show. 00:31:47 Speaker 3: And you start all sixteen games, lead the team with seven interceptions, you forced two fumbles, raised a couple of sacks, You tired for second with tackles at ninety six, was only a few behind Zach Thomas. We know he's a tackling machine and uh, just an absolute monster season for you. 00:32:02 Speaker 5: But hell, I mean it probably should have been a. 00:32:04 Speaker 3: Pro Bowl season, right And of course, you know, I know a little bit about that big. 00:32:07 Speaker 5: Seton you do. 00:32:08 Speaker 6: We'll talk about that a little later. 00:32:10 Speaker 3: But tell us what went through your mind that year and how did it all come together? Because I know you all the stuff you went through when you get back and you had this hell of the season right away in two thousand. 00:32:22 Speaker 4: Well I appreciate that really because that was a year that was that was my best year. 00:32:28 Speaker 6: Stat wise anyway. 00:32:30 Speaker 4: But what happened was when I set out for those nine weeks last weeks in Seattle, I got a running start. 00:32:36 Speaker 6: Into the season, into the off season interesting. 00:32:40 Speaker 4: And so when we al really got when we everybody was done already, my body was healing up and I was, you know, I was prime. 00:32:47 Speaker 6: I was, you know, good to go. 00:32:49 Speaker 4: So it only took me further having the whole three months four months before training camp, I was tuned up, ready to go healthy. 00:32:56 Speaker 6: Everything was what it was with me, you know that off season. 00:33:00 Speaker 4: You know, I like to work in the off season, and so going into that year, I still had you know, I know I had to earn my position. I know I had to get involved and get my feet wet and get the starting position. So I did everything I could, just coming just working hard and you know, just staying humble, showing. 00:33:19 Speaker 6: Up every day. 00:33:20 Speaker 4: So as the year progressed, I started making some plays. They started putting me in position. 00:33:25 Speaker 6: The team. 00:33:26 Speaker 4: What we had all around us, from the past rush to the backups, to everybody, the linebacking court, you know, everything the pieces were in place, and great job by the coaching staff with that, and the administration upstairs and all that for putting that defense together. 00:33:42 Speaker 6: The thing about that is what a lot of people don't know. 00:33:46 Speaker 4: I I compete a lot, but I'd look a lot at the college players that year. If you look at the University of Miami, who have Florida State had, Who. 00:33:55 Speaker 6: Did they have down there? They had and lead Sean Taylor. 00:34:00 Speaker 4: So my thing was I was always thinking, man, we are watching two Hall of famers right now, We're watching some of the best safeties in the state of in the nation. 00:34:11 Speaker 2: Week those guys project you had. 00:34:14 Speaker 4: To do it because Ed Reid was down there, Blades was down there Sean Taylor was down there, and I know the coaches are watching them, like next year, we're gonna we got to get something with this guy. We got it. You know, they're right in our backyard. That used to motivate me every week, you know. And some people like when they're in college. 00:34:34 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've never heard that before. 00:34:36 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, but I worked my buds. 00:34:38 Speaker 4: I was like, man, I even if I put my best effort, they I probably still don't got a shop. 00:34:43 Speaker 6: They want these guys to gonna get them. 00:34:44 Speaker 4: Because they were such great players and h you know, their career spoke for themselves. But being the defensive back at that point in the state of Florida, you you have you have to look at the college guys down here at the un because I believe you know you and Florida has you or Florida College just has some. 00:35:01 Speaker 6: Of the best skilled players in the nation. It's just what it is. 00:35:05 Speaker 4: So when you talk about a position of safety, safety is like a premium position in Florida. So some of these guys that they have down there, and some of the guys that got now they're you know, number one picks, big. 00:35:15 Speaker 6: Strong, fast guys. 00:35:16 Speaker 4: So that's What really pushed me a lot, besides studying on that end and then on the other end, when you have Zach and j T and you have Derick Rodgers and Sam and Patt, I just didn't want to let those guys down, the guys on the offense. I didn't want to let those guys down. I wanted to come in and do my job and pull my weight, you know, not every week come in and be like, oh no, hope be walk plays. 00:35:41 Speaker 6: You know, we got this guy, this guy, he's going to do his job. 00:35:44 Speaker 4: And that go leads back to what I was saying earlier, is like I knew I was going to be game planned, but that gave me more opportunity. So I studied harder and I just was, you know, read the defense, and I put it together with the coverage and put it together with the formations or different the likelihood of this happened, and this happening, and it worked out well. 00:36:04 Speaker 1: It more than worked out, no doubt, it more than worked out. Whatever the motivation was, it worked out. I want to go back to what Chews has said, right, you know it should have been a Pro Bowl season, and you do know something about that little bit this sky led the league in receptions, didn't make the Pro Bowl that year, So he understands. Yeah, he understands that sometimes the right guys make it and sometimes maybe the right guys don't make it. That year, I don't even know if you remember, but the two starting safeties in the Pro Bowl for the AFC were Rod Woodson and Blame Bishop. 00:36:35 Speaker 2: Yeah, great players. 00:36:37 Speaker 1: Woodson's one of the best that ever played the position, you know, so there's no argument as to. 00:36:41 Speaker 2: Who they were as players. 00:36:43 Speaker 1: But that year you had more tackles, more picks, more sacks, more forced fumbles, and the same amount of tackles for loss as Rod Woodson. Bishop had no picks, no force fumbles. On top of that, a bunch of your teammates you just said, the guys you don't want to let down. 00:36:57 Speaker 2: JT. 00:36:57 Speaker 1: Trace is, Oh, Sam Brock, I think Tim Brod. All of those guys make the Pro Bowl. You can make an argument that the defensive backfield should have been. 00:37:05 Speaker 5: All of them. 00:37:06 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, you know it should have because Sam made it, Brock made it. 00:37:10 Speaker 2: You should have been there as well. 00:37:11 Speaker 1: Was that a disappointment for you or were you just listening to what your motivation was? Were you able to find solace in the fact that you gave it everything you had, You got the best out of yourself. 00:37:22 Speaker 2: It was your career season. 00:37:24 Speaker 1: Was that enough where it didn't matter what the world defined you as exactly? 00:37:30 Speaker 4: I think you explained it, Zach. You hit it on ahead with that, because all I ever wanted to do was get the respect of my. 00:37:37 Speaker 6: Teammates in the locker room. And I had it. And it wasn't just because. 00:37:43 Speaker 4: And when you talk about the Pro Bowl, you know, sometimes some players that should have went went, some people who shouldn't have been there that didn't get the nod at some point, but it becomes sometimes a popularity contest in your name has to be out there. So I understood that Rod Woodson blame Bishop. They didn't just have one great year. These are perennial guys like year five, six year runs. So I understood how even if they had one down year, they were still gonna make it because their namers out there, you know, and they deserve it. They were the hell of a player, hell of the players. But I just wanted to be in the locker room and being respected, and that year I wanted like unsung hero and things like that, which was fine with me because I knew from where I came from undrafted rookie free agent to coming in and being a part of this defense and actually having a little bit of individual success that helped the group have success. That was just fine with me. I was good with that. I was I was more than good with that. You know, it was pro bos what it was everybody. It's nice to have. But at the end of the day, it's like, you know what your teammates when you come in into that locker room after winner or loss and see the guys sweating, and you know the work that you put in, That's what it's all about right there. 00:39:02 Speaker 5: So yeah, no doubt about it. Man. I'm still a little salty about money all my fields. 00:39:10 Speaker 2: I don't mean to bring that up too. You know what parallel parallel. 00:39:15 Speaker 3: You know, B Walking, We when we get guys in the tank, we always do our research and try to get you some funny stories some teammates to ask about. But it was tough with you, man, it really was. Nobody had any dirt on B Walk. But we did find out that, uh, you're very well. 00:39:30 Speaker 5: Respect respected by your teammates. 00:39:32 Speaker 1: Man. 00:39:32 Speaker 3: As a matter of fact, Trent Gamble said, this humble, hard working, he was like an older brother that looked out for you. One of the best guys on the planet. And that's pretty high praise right there from Trent. Yeah, yeah, yeah, What do you think about the respect you had in the locker room from all these guys? Man, I mean that that just says a lot. Without saying a lot, it said a lot. 00:39:51 Speaker 4: I really appreciate all the guys that I played with because they all touched me in different ways, either by a word or motivating or spotting, or were working together pushing me something like that. But that's really what I was working for, because I knew that's what was at stake for me. You know, I set my standards out there to say, Okay, I don't you know. I never wanted to be the weak link for the defense, and some games I was. 00:40:19 Speaker 5: We all have. 00:40:22 Speaker 6: I was just that and it just didn't feel good to me. 00:40:26 Speaker 4: And that just drove me further to say, you know what, these guys in here, they believe in me. 00:40:31 Speaker 6: We all believe in each other. You know. It was just funny. 00:40:34 Speaker 4: We joked around a little bit, and you know, it was just I was there for a lot, but people watched. I wasn't involved because I'm kind of sensitive, you know, so when it comes time to talking about people and joking a little bit, I mean, you know, I give you a little bit, but after that, it's kind of like I had let me alone, leave me alone, because I can't, you know, So I bow out gracefully keep coming at me. Now it's like it take it's a different turn. So I stayed out of that area. But I laugh a little bit, you know, and it just didn't work good for me, you know, with with those type of Yeah, I'm a little sensitive with that. You know, I don't have good snappy comebacks that you know, a lot of yeah they quick with quickly. You know, I didn't have that hands you will keep going hands. 00:41:21 Speaker 6: It's like, oh yeah, well then what's up there? 00:41:23 Speaker 1: You know. 00:41:23 Speaker 3: It's like you know, but you know, you know me, man, I'm actively involved with our Miami Dolphins Alumni Association on the advisory board. But I bet a lot of guys don't even realize that you still you still live down this way. You really are low key man, right, So so what is be walked up to these days? 00:41:44 Speaker 6: Man? 00:41:46 Speaker 3: Question? 00:41:50 Speaker 2: That was the question. 00:41:54 Speaker 4: You know, I'm a I'm a working guy and that's what I go to work every day. And my job's kind of intense of what I do right now, So I like to stay low key because I actually have to in those regards. 00:42:11 Speaker 5: So some of your secret service or something. 00:42:13 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, for the most part, I'm just laid back. I like to go to the beach. 00:42:18 Speaker 5: You know. 00:42:18 Speaker 6: I got my kids. 00:42:19 Speaker 4: I got some teenage daughters that are acting and singing and doing commercials out in LA. 00:42:26 Speaker 6: And I just like my. 00:42:27 Speaker 4: Time to myself. I'm okay with myself. I'm okay with spending time with myself. Yeah, every now and then somebody may invite me out and like, I'll go, but I don't like to be away from home too long. 00:42:39 Speaker 6: I'm ready two or three hours. I'm an older guy. Now it gets about eleven thirty, and I'm like. 00:42:45 Speaker 2: You say, you're older guy. It seems like that was the m O when you were twenty five years old. 00:42:49 Speaker 4: It was, but I could have stayed up right, But now it's like, you know, it's loud in the club. 00:42:54 Speaker 2: It's not by choice now, it's just, yeah, it's necessity. 00:42:58 Speaker 6: You know. 00:42:58 Speaker 4: I'm just at a point now where I like to see people, you know, living their best life. You know, I don't want to bother nobody. I don't like to be bothered too much. You know, if somebody's in the ram of doing things, I just wish you the best. It's great to see old teammates from time to time here and there, you know, and hear about and kind of catch up and doing those things like that. I just, you know, I just have been a loner for a long time and it works for me. 00:43:25 Speaker 6: You know, I keep a very small circle. 00:43:28 Speaker 1: Well, I hope we press record over here because it looks like we may not get another opportunity here. 00:43:33 Speaker 5: It's always like. 00:43:37 Speaker 6: Juice, you guys bring it out of me. 00:43:39 Speaker 4: Man. I'm like, this is most I've talked about. I don't talk too much, but I love it. I just love seeing like old teammates that you know, and good people that are still here after twenty twenty five years, and you sit and you could talk and you know, there's no pressure about anything else. It's just, you know, it's just straight off off the love of speaking with somebody and wishing them well. So I you know that that's I really appreciate this opportunity. 00:44:04 Speaker 5: Man, we appreciate you. 00:44:05 Speaker 1: We definitely appreciate We're not done, We're almost done. Although I just love hearing that because it's. 00:44:10 Speaker 5: Really what this show is about, man. 00:44:12 Speaker 2: You know, is that concept. 00:44:14 Speaker 1: So like any competitive game you ever played in, especially a close one, it comes down to a two minute drill. And there was a time period where no quarterback wanted to get up there for a two minute drill with all the pressure in the world and look across and see two nine and Pat and Brock and b walk. But Juice and I aren't scared. So we're gonna try it. We're gonna try and do it. Mike's putting two minutes up on the clock. We're gonna hit you with some fun but quick questions. You just you know, you come back to it. I know you said you're not witty, but let's see what you come back with and then we'll get you out here. 00:44:48 Speaker 6: Cool, okay, cool, all right? 00:44:49 Speaker 5: You got time if you need to walk. 00:44:51 Speaker 2: If you need a time out, if we're not aligned right or something. 00:44:55 Speaker 3: All right, question ready, Mike's always ready, get ready, stays ready. All right, When you arrived in Miami in nineteen ninety five or nineteen ninety seven, The dB room also had Bracy Walker. You already mentioned that. Who was the real b Walk? 00:45:10 Speaker 5: Though? 00:45:11 Speaker 6: Oh me, I love it? 00:45:15 Speaker 2: Like what did they put on the back of the journey b r ay Walk? 00:45:18 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, so when I played for Detroit, they put a whole day I hated it. 00:45:24 Speaker 1: I love it too, funny. Okay, Was it tougher to play in Washington State? Go cooks, Travis Gokook's Was it tougher to play in Washington State or Washington d C? 00:45:33 Speaker 6: Washington State? 00:45:35 Speaker 2: Weather? Talent? 00:45:38 Speaker 6: Paycheck paycheck? 00:45:40 Speaker 2: All right, there's your answer. 00:45:41 Speaker 5: All right, all right. 00:45:42 Speaker 3: We spoke earlier about a rumor that you were quick to cuss a coach out. You kind of spelled that rumor a little bit of all the head coach you played for North Turner Jimmy Johnson, Dave Wantstead, Marty Moore, Morrin Wing, and Steve Merriucci. 00:45:55 Speaker 5: Who was the one you absolutely would not cross. 00:46:02 Speaker 6: Oh that's a good one. I probably wouldn't cross Jimmy Johnson. 00:46:08 Speaker 2: That red dot he put that red. 00:46:09 Speaker 6: Dot, and Johnson didn't play that. 00:46:12 Speaker 4: Jimmy Johnson was just you know, you know how you went, Yeah, you know, you ain't crossing Jimmy because you ain't coming back right right. 00:46:19 Speaker 2: Probably a good decision. Okay. 00:46:21 Speaker 1: If this two minute drill is going to end in an interception, not the way we want it, but I know it's the way you want it. If it's going to end in an interception. And all those four guys we talked about are lined up, and I know you guys all fought for interceptions. Who's gonna make the play? Is it gonna be you? Is it gonna be Sam's gonna be Pat or Brock? 00:46:38 Speaker 4: Hopefully all of us are back there fighting over and somebody comes down with it. 00:46:42 Speaker 6: Who's the other three? You get the block? 00:46:43 Speaker 2: Ah be Wat's gonna make that interception? That is your two minute drill? He is Brian Walker. 00:46:51 Speaker 1: Man, it was so good to have you out here that you came out to the surface and spent some time. 00:46:55 Speaker 6: Yeah, I appreciate it. 00:46:56 Speaker 4: I appreciate it you guys bringing me out like that because sometimes you need to get out yea and talk. And it's like I said, it was great just seeing you guys. And Seth, I mean, you like me Balder you know what I'm saying.
