I'm a senior at Nebraska Wesleyan University. I'm, people say this all the time, I'm the voice of the Prairie Wolves. I'm their announcer, I do a lot of voice things announcing broadcasting for NWU. Mm-hmm. Ellie, what, we'll just kind of spitball here. What made you want to get into media broadcasting? Um, it wasn't really something that I was kind of looking into, but I knew that I have a voice and I like to use it. And I was taken in class where we had to get volunteer hours at some of the sporting events and we could get double hours if we p-aid. So I started p-a in volleyball and then they asked me if I wanted to continue doing that and then I just started in basketball and then eventually I just did all the sports there. So did you grow up playing sports? I had no all of these answers. Yes, I did. Yeah. What sports? Um, I played volleyball in basketball. Those were my main sports, but volleyball was my like one and I, my favorite one. I did track for a little bit, um, and then I was the boy's soccer manager, my junior and senior year of high school. Oh, there you go. I know soccer. There you go. Good people. And where does it come from? Because usually it comes from somewhere. Somebody around you lead you. Well, you play golf too? Oh, yeah. I was on a, yeah, my dad is a huge sports guy. So my dad, like I was telling you before we came on area, my dad was my coach for softball, basketball, and my mom was my coach for volleyball for a little bit, but thankfully I kind of got away from that. But yeah, my parents are a huge influencer that you're both your parents. They play sports. Yeah, my dad actually was at Nebraska wasn't for a semester and played. He played at Hastings and Nebraska was when he played everywhere, but he's an injury prone guy. So he kind of had to quit all that, but he was a big basketball player. Yeah. That's true dad all the way up there. Sad. We know. We know. My mom was did volleyball and basketball too, but she didn't play in college, but she went to Nebraska Wesleyan for college. Yeah. But she was an injury prone. She's just tough as nails, right? Not as bad. Nope. Who's the better athlete between your mom and your dad? Your child's first step is a big step towards their future.

Come on, give it to us. Right, it was back in the day problem with my dad, but he doesn't really move like he used to. Also, my mom doesn't either, so I don't really know. I'd say my mom would beat him in a 400 because he wouldn't make it through. He's got a really bad back. Look, I'm not going to hate on that because I'm a member of that club. Ellie, do you have anybody from the media or broadcasting that you like are your favorite to listen to? Anybody? Not specifically. I got into kind of like really wanting to do this and going into like radio and broadcasting because of Dwayne Taylor, if you know him. Yeah. He's one of my good friends and I got involved with him. I worked with him at Nebraska Day or Nebraska volleyball day at Memorial, which was such a good opportunity. I worked with him that whole day and he got me the job of the salt dogs that I was at and he's been a really good help with me. There you go. This is all about who you know. He's inching Dwayne is inching closer to the to to the ticket. I keep I whisper at him and just laugh and go, not yet, but soon. Yes. Soon at some point, the sports thing will just crawl all the way over it. You can do it. He's one of we worked together with the Superdovas and of course we always fist bump at PBA in Memorial Stadium. So you're in good company. He's a good man. He's everywhere. That is a statement of truth. That he is, man. You could do it. I've met him a few times. He is a kind of infectious personality. He doesn't have to turn it on when the lights come on. That's just him. And that's a good person to know and be associated with. We got about seven minutes. So before we get into Ellie is going to get participate in the first pickums. But before we do that, there's an interesting story, Ellie and DP that came out of the swack is University of Arkansas, Pine Bluff claims a former walk on player at University of Arkansas, Pine Bluff, leaked film and playbook to Jackson State, a little revenge. You cut me. Don't do me right. Don't get me to play. Here's the playbook and film work for your upcoming game. Jackson State's actually pretty, pretty is obviously pretty good even after D on left. I would tell you this. It happens at times in the pros. You see teams pick up guys with its important game in New England with notorious for this. Somebody gets cut two weeks prior to say they project to say they're going to play the eagles or something like that, keep them for a couple of weeks, get all the secrets and then say see you. But never really heard much of it in college. What about you, DP? We had you hear more about it after the fact there was some NFL stuff being in Carolina when it was an expansion team and there was just so many players coming to that. There's such a huge transition of players. And then the players who who didn't leave on good terms back then where everything was physical, yeah, there was an actual playbook, there was actual film. You got tapes right along those lines and then then it became, you know, things were less trackable. Then there's no social media to go back and tell people, Hey, man, you weren't as connected as they are now. You can't you don't get access to everybody now. Now everybody knows everybody, everybody's friends with everybody. And it's a matter of one DM. It takes one DM. Oh, no, yeah. To cross through. Well, they just send an email. They just or the login. Well, and now there's digital payments. So I can listen, you don't have to do the look, I don't have to know you or see you or be around you to do business with you. And that's the kind of stuff that you go, wow. Okay, that's your and it's happening now. I mean, you know, we've heard the stories of basketball investigations going on back east with some universities, we've talked about these things in the professional levels that players and casinos, yeah, yeah, with the betting and I think this is more just like a revenge, probably didn't leave obviously on good terms. And for whatever reason, pick the Jackson state game. You know, you heard stories, I remember there was a linebacker named Brian Allen who played at Florida State, a high draft choice for the Rams. And they were playing a game and he left his playbook at the hotel and the opposing team got the playbook. You've heard of other stories of leaving your playbook or players have left their playbook in their car. And somebody broke into their car and obviously stole not only their playbook, but other stuff. And then also pretty much holding it for ransom at times. So what happens? But it's one of the things you do and when you're in the NFL business, look, it's like the zoo. What are those? We haven't seen those before. These are big city folks. Right? Yeah. Like these are folks from from smaller places that are in downtown Lincoln. They're there everywhere. They're causing a lot of traffic. You know, it's in the place, I here's what I actually had a player reach back out after he got to college and somebody had approached him about access to film and digital footprint from your high school team. Yeah. One of my high school teams and most of my teams in high school were built on character and integrity. So they would they certainly wouldn't know how to deal with it. More importantly, they didn't know how to handle it or what to expect. And of course, the parent, you know, they asked the parents, parents, we'll talk to Coach DP, he'll tell you what you should do. And in a lot of those cases, it was we assume that the athlete is knowledgeable about the risk versus reward in a lot of cases. They aren't. Yeah. Majority of the cases. Right. In the cases, Ali, if somebody approached you and said, Hey, listen, we've got 50 grain. If you can get me one one practice tape, most most people, yeah, you it sounds different. Would you do it, Ellie? Integrity wise. No. But if I was falling on hard times, I needed that 50,000. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's and that's what I mean. In this particular case, the kid that one of the kids, there's actually two kids that were involved and one of the kids was like, listen, I kind of explained that they went to a coach and said, Hey, listen, here's what happened. Here's who approached me. And they said, okay, we'll take care of it. But the kids like, but listen, that's money and that's money that I don't have. Again, Arkansas, Pinebuff and Jackson state, neither of those are really money factories. No. Most of the kids who are going to school there have some financial duress. So, you know, they had that discussion of, well, you know, not for nothing, but why would I not do this? Yeah. I mean, it's the hard decision to make because, you know, I think whoever's at doing the asking is definitely probably scouting out who is a maybe a potential easy target unless they're approached by the player that is left and in case where they're trying to buy, like, you know, Intel and secrets is pretty much just what they call espionage or whatever. You get secrets on a different country, you're paying for it. But in sports and the team sports is always say the hard thing to, I guess, manage or forecast is the short term. That's why I was talking about players and or parents when you're when you're here and let's say in Nebraska and whether you're getting recruited or things didn't work out or, you know, you chose to go somewhere else or they chose somebody else. I learned the hard way in the league. I was able to kind of play my way through it, but you never want to duke you where you live or where you eat and you always want to be able to come back and you never know when you'll cross pass again. So is it really worth it for this young man here? You never know who's on either team or any either university that potentially 510 heck maybe 15 years down the road that they'll just Google and they'll just assume that you were wrong even if you say he was innocent and so you got to kind of always try to forecast things way down. You never know what the future holds, but one thing is if it's if you have to think twice about it, probably not the best thing to do because now, you know, for I'm assuming he had friends on that team at University of Arkansas, Pine Bluff, it's a probably a good assumption. All those relationships are damaged. Yeah, that's how he got busted. Right. And so, but that's how he got busted is that he told that one friend that he told. Yeah. It was like, no, but what I mean by this is the damage beyond repair. Yeah. This isn't like, oh man, I forgot to I forgot to fill your car back up with gas or I'm sorry, we're late to practice. This is your break in that code. And then, you know, left them exposed to, you know, a team that, you know, that they were matching up to. So it'd be the interest to see how all things shake out if it really comes to be factual and reality. So anyways, we're going to take a quick break. Then we're going to come back. We're going to get to deal with all this. We're going to do all drama. We're going to this came out now that a temple player, a university temple player. Sports shaving, point shaving, listen, when the feds come knocking, you're obviously guilty. Done, done. Want to give you guys time to think about what what are the ramifications of it. We know that we had the thing last year with Alabama's baseball coach that set forth the spider web of different players being suspended from different universities. See what it thinks, man, because this is crazy with the, you never would think, you know, since the Arizona state, state one, that really, you know, we, you know, strict knows the guard there. I think strict might have played against him, said he wished you would have never done it. Now you got guys here in real time, point shaving when you can actually go and bet. No wonder what is underneath the reason of point shaving. Jay former DP and Ellie to the crew old school will be right back.
