Episode #17 The QB’s
Don’t know if any of you have been watching these guy’s podcast, but it’s been pretty entertaining. Get to hear some inside stories and occasional stuff I didn’t know about.
The episode I linked has all 4 of our QB’s there on the sofa. And the thing that stuck out to me the most is how freaking big Gunner Stockton is. Dude is sitting next to Ratledge and he’s not much smaller. Beck looks skinny by comparison. Poor BVG doesn’t even get a mic in front of him.
Good stuff, though. Thought you guys might enjoy it.

Monken didn't sugar coat the 2023 conversation.
We have tight ends coming in.
Goede has a very limited gametime role.
He wants to stay. But monken made it very clear that you can't always get what you want and why that should be better for Ryland.
That was not a college talk with monken.
It was an NFL one.

Enlighten us on your meaning

I would guess he means “Look kid, you love Georgia. You want to play here. We appreciate that. You’re a good player. But what we have and what we are bringing in are great players. If you stay, you’re not likely to play much. “

In can dig it. Just trying to find the angle of nfl vs college talk. Marine looking at it like a job would be better

Gunner Stockton
Saw him up close at the 2021 Corky Kell 7-on-7 passing camp in June of that year. I've officiated football for going on 16 years and when you do this long enough you know pretty much right away the kids that stand out and just have ""IT". Well Gunner has "IT" in spades.
The ball comes out of his hand different. He threw a pass right next to my right ear and you could actually hear the ball humming in flight. The other QB'S didn't even come close to him in both appearance and skill. He's special, and he'll be the starter for us in August. He's that good.

I don't even think it included an opportunity to stay on scholarship beyond graduation.
"Walk on or walk.
And here is what walking does for you personally.
Good luck."
Has anyone seen Up In The Air?
It probably ended on that note.

For whatever reason I find that movie oddly charming. I just get tired of the backpack speeches. Lol.
Posted on 1/26/23 at 10:22 pm to claydawg09
I got the Up In The Air treatment from Lehman Brothers.
It was surreal going through it.
And then surreal telling my wife as we watch the movie that it was real (except my story includes about 10 Men In Black security guards to make sure that we didn't peel the flat-screens off the walls and steal the computers).

I haven't seen that movie. Is it like Boiler Room?

Lol nothing like boiler room.

It is a romantic film wrapped in the corporate business world of shutting down departments, businesses, or just excess in some situations.
It exposes business treating employees like sheep (and hoping they stay sheep and don't go Michael Douglas in Falling Down). It sees "the process" as a risk management technique. Because to corporate America, firing someone isn't about that person's family. It is about what harm the former employee could do if their first direction after the layoff is the wrong one.
The ironies of the film is that one firm is contracted to do that one job. Fire entire buildings. The employee doing the firing cares more about his frequent flyer miles card that is racking up points than the people around him. It is about ego. And avoiding emotional conflict. Todd Monken is that lead character (I say that as those may be his best qualities as an OC. And I never want him to leave. But the result is the Ryland Goede's of the world... really solid, good people... getting the nfl treatment).

Fortunately, I was in the mortgage business out of college and made a shitload of money in wholesale.
Unfortunately, my life was See Dick and Jane and Up In The Air for about 2 years in 2006 and 2007.
Writers write what they know. So it shouldn't surprise me to see my life on movie screens. Sometimes, their experiences are my experiences.
I probably vomited too much info in this thread because I knew that deeprig had a stint in the mortgage business. I'm not sure if those were shared experiences or not.

Makes sense because I thought it was a good analysis. Bonus points for tying it back to Georgia football.
"Make no mistake, we all die alone."
That's the quote I always remember from that movie.

I haven't seen those movies so I can't comment on their relevance to my experience during those years.
I do remember the president of the company shutting it all down, having a personal closed-door conversation with each and every employee to let them go, without any warning. So that was a nice touch, I guess. But I was friends with the president so I actually knew it was coming and had already checked out. I was 100% commission so once I got word, I just worked as much of my pipeline to closure as I could and didn't do any extra work or try to get any new business. And it's not like any mortgage places were hiring to jump ship to. Which leads me to where I am now almost 20 years later, one of those IT jobs that takes 20 minutes to explain so I just say "IT".

I had 1 company (private company) furlough and then file bankruptcy on unpaid wages.
The next company (first Tennessee bank/first horizon) shut the entire business unit down. They never even told me. I had a customer tell me as I was calling on them for business.
The next was Lehman brothers who shut the entire business unit down. They actually hired all of the workers from the first company (Lehman pretended to want to buy the private company during the furlough but then realized they could gain all of the labor for free after the BK). They even took over the lease on the previous office.
The next was a private company who closed the entire company down.
All of that within about 13-15 months.
Lehman was the only one with the nice people across the desk from out of town pushing me the folder that included everything I would need (along with a severance package for the 2 months that I worked there).

Lehman
I wasn't in wholesale, I was in retail. Lehman was the lender who could get shite done for borrowers who were broke on paper, example, business owner who made shite loads of money and had plenty of assets but used tax code to his advantage and a good credit score but couldn't go conventional, and subprime was a ripoff, Lehman could make it happen at conventional rates. Washington Mutual too.
I had a borrower who owned too many properties to go conventional, even though the credit score and assets and income was all on the up and up. There was a rule at the time that if you owned more than ten properties, fannie/freddie wouldn't lend to you. Not even under investment property guidelines. Washington Mutual was the only lender I could find for this guy. But after about 40 loans cleared through them, this VP (probably fake title) calls me and says we can't do anymore. That was my first signal the bottom was about to fall out. I was asking why? The guy has never missed a payment, all of your own underwriters have approved everything I've submitted, why am I being cut off? She says "exposure". I ask "exposure to what, making money off a goldmine client?" Her answer "Exposure". It's like they knew something in the market before it actually happened. I could type for hours on this shite. I'll pause.
