00:00All right, so there was some news that Diego Pavia was waived by the Baltimore Ravens.
00:07Hey, look, when you need a Tokyo phone book to look somebody in the eye,
00:11the chances of you making a National Football League team at the quarterback position is going to be a little
00:18tough.
00:19Look, here's a guy that I think was a great college football player.
00:23That doesn't necessarily always translate to going to the National Football League.
00:29Diego Pavia was a great college football player in the same essence that Tim Tebow was a great college football
00:37player.
00:37That doesn't necessarily always carry over, especially when you have the issues that he had when it comes to his
00:45height.
00:46Look, Diego Pavia was great. He completely transformed Vanderbilt football.
00:51You have to understand something about Vanderbilt football.
00:53Vanderbilt football in the SEC was roadkill.
00:57The only thing that Vanderbilt built back in the day was debate teams and atomic bombs.
01:03They didn't build football teams.
01:06They didn't build sports teams.
01:08And Diego Pavia was part of really the turning around of that sports program
01:13and them being a viable part now of the Southeastern Conference
01:16and giving them a chance for those guys to go out and win an SEC title.
01:21So, again, he was really important for Vanderbilt football.
01:25But NFL, I never thought it was going to be something that would be there.
01:30And, again, we were right.
