GatorCountry brings you a new podcast as GC welcomes the newest addition David Soderquist to the team.
Andrew Spivey and David start to preview the season for the Florida Gators as we’re now just over a week until the Gators start the football season against FAU.
Andrew and David also talk recruiting and how things are going for the coaching staff off the field as they head into the 2021 football season.
TRANSCRIPT:
Andrew:           Welcome back, Gator Country. Brand new exciting podcast, and I’ve got my man David Soderquist. Probably said it wrong, because I’m going to say it wrong. We’re back, and we’re going to start doing this podcast. We’re going to back and doing it two times a week, like before. We’ll be back doing our recaps as always, our previews, bringing on some guests. Doing it in the video format as well, so if you’re just listening to us or reading the transcript, we’re on video as well. David’s coming over. Big fan of David. Joined his podcast a few times. David, first, before we get going, tell everybody a little bit about yourself.
David:               Man, I’m just a crazy guy, man. I’m a big fan of Florida Gators. I don’t walk on crates and bust my face on the concrete, but I definitely love my tailgates and hopefully nobody brings any crates to the tailgates this year. Great Gator fanatic here. I’ve been doing podcasting for a while. Did some over for Chomp Talk, and now I’m over here at Gator Country, and I’m exciting to begin this journey with you, Andrew Spivey, over here. It’s just great to be back in the podcasting world. I took about a month hiatus and kind of twiddled my thumbs there. I was waiting to get back in the podcasting world. Now I’m here with you, Andrew, and it’s great to be a Florida Gator.
Andrew:           Did you see the Oriole? They screenshotted him when the Orioles finally won, and he conquered the crate. That was pretty good. I’ll be honest. I was watching through Facebook, and you get those dumb videos that come through Facebook. It was just some crazy guy, a big guy, an offensive line guy, and he was trying to do it. I thought it was a joke. I didn’t know that it was this new thing going on. You’re not going to catch me walking over no crates. I’m sorry.
David:               No, but I did post a video of Hevesy. If you didn’t watch it, it was like when you go up to the final crate it’s a five star. You come down, it’s a four star. It’s a three star, and he just falls and hits his face. So, yeah. That pretty much just takes up for all the offensive line recruiting that we’ve had here lately.
Andrew:           We’ll get into that, because it’s been a circus. Offensive line has been an adventure. It’s been an adventure for the last three years. Some good news overall. Florida’s done really well in certain positions. Nick Evers looks to be now, I think we all knew Nick was going to be a really, really good prospect and commit for Florida, but it’s looking like Nick’s the guy that Florida’s been missing. Myself, I’ve missed covering guys like Nick who just absolutely love recruiting, who absolutely love the process, who love to talk about the process. Nick, his family is very involved. We all make fun and make jokes, Miss Evers is on him. She is on him. So is dad. If Florida eventually lands Evan Stewart, you can thank Nick and his family. They’re huge in the Evan Stewart thing.
I say this all the time, but you only have a select few guys every year that love recruiting, love to help you get the guys on campus. Nick’s one of those guys. We always talked about Tebow loved in. I’m trying to think back. Nick Washington. He loved to recruit. Nick loves to recruit.
David:               Definitely. If you see it now, Monica Evers just started following me too, so shout out to Monica Evers out there. Finally, I got the follow from her. You could just tell Nick loves recruiting. He loves the sport.
