Tomorrow afternoon is going to be Wake Forest Florida State were now going to catch up with the head coach of the Demon deacons.

Steve Forbes rejoined us fresh off the win against Boston College couple days ago we had Kirkham on earlier in the week before we get to tomorrow's match up, though you said after the game that you have a quote that you tell players after road wins that isn't exactly PG now we have a thing called the FCC here that this allows us from saying certain words on the radio but want to share any hints on what exactly that nonparallel what might be well really.

I heard it many years ago when we went out. Tarkanian at Fresno State then locked a little research looks leftward like that was monumentally funny but something that needs to stay in the lock so that are all you Republicans think that thing lock makes sense touch him.

He says he loves gospel music and he says he's going to send me a one of the gospel albums studies help produce I'm still waiting for that to arrive in the mail you said there's a song that you had that you sang at Wichita State that you're not going to sing because it's special to Wichita State as you were talking about that you said you were pretty good singer yourself, what can you sing coach Forbes wrote while yelling. Maybe with regard been there once in a while I think the wedding night when I graduated high school required church. While I grew up that way. It's been a long time that my family loves music. You children something garlic current regular lesson to concerts so music use is bigger alive. Probably not very big in my family for me to be singing anymore.

I'm picturing wedding Singer Steve Forbes the same way I picture Young Sandler winning over the heart of Drew Barrymore was on that set list after you got out of college early in the second would love maybe you think my remember you and I by any rabbit I might've been talking like early night so will call you back right. If I do remember back right. That was the girlfriend sister got married. Maybe I will try to get back to you. I don't remember but won't Steve Forbes with the same UCS was with us yesterday and he was describing how important the eight days were between the Notre Dame loss in the win against BC because I started doing the math a little bit with the timelines. It seemed like to me, and you can correct me if I'm wrong, that those eight days was the first week that you guys were able to practice without a game focusing on yourself and not have yellow been able to do so with sobs as you want able to do that. I think until New Year's day. Just give me a sense from the coaches perspective how important those eight days were to get things caught up. Well really important to write that up.

One day I went back to Lamont from Georgia Tech.

Could Notre Dame weekly can gain we had something like 17 practices maybe three days off and put those back roads in preparation for the next game.

Those practices are different than when you distraction on the things that you need to work on to become a better team sometimes and so one plaque actually W Georgia Tech. I was really pulling the ball movement often so we scripted guitar practice Monday but Sunday night or Monday practice really are a ball movement and you could tell, you know that you put in place only put the ball a lot better from lack of practice time really was making players, and so thinking you know what's good Notre Dame game was over we took Wednesday off.

We watch the Friday practice just don't think it will become to go back and work on that we do offensively and then Sunday majority of the practice was about us and so you think that was important.com Excel, you not think that many days off like he claim put in a situation where we had missed so much. Basically the whole month of December from Thanksgiving New Year's Eve and New Year's Day you know we had just so much in that we need to go back and work on follow him on Twitter at Forbes wake Steve Forbes with the seer on sports on triad while I'm thinking in this moment about your twitter account. There are couple things I wanted to ask you about where you been on this show talking about how you felt.

Adam West was robbed of an Oscar for his performance and Batman shirt but then you gonna step further.

I think maybe a step too far by saying that the movie letterheads with George Clooney which by the way it was shot many parts of it were shot in Winston-Salem. That movie you felt that movie was robbed of an Academy award. I don't know if we have the same movie tastiness. But how would you describe your taste in movies. Steve Forbes very eclectic. I like your old job.

Different genres of movies that you not like okay I'm out of Star Wars ring. Now my wife and I don't like drama I like what you know movies about history I watch for movies that you know but they will act. There's a great dramatic part of network I got from the office. Rock on the railroad tracks by explaining what he couldn't hit each other to my hindquarters on my shoulder may come our proceeded toward her face for about 20 so I think that's a very well acted in the song they sing over there are well acted movie sinking yesterday. I'm looking at the success Virginia Tech Saturday as Mike Young and Mike Young transfer transferred to the Virginia Tech job a lot a guys transferred out of this program, including Carrie black was the best player on that team and a lot of people fellow man. This is going to be an impossible rebuild from a guy coming from the so can't enter tax and were seeing them right now that there one of the best teams in the late one of the two or three best teams going in the ACC right now and I think of your program a little bit when I see it in terms of what's possible for your program sooner rather than later. When you consider all the transfers you guys had out your program and you also brought up along the player from the soak on and you came across in the so can't and has found a way to make it work in stretches this year. When you're looking at.

I don't know how you timeline successor. You have two-year plans one year plan five year plans moving things forward, but has what coach Youngs done in the ACC giving you optimism about how quickly you can turn around Wake Forest like that really true. Please, usually cracks the same study you got some good players got something visual and transfers transfers. I don't think any junior college players might think her story on his team so I think this day and age you construct your rosters in different ways. I could not do that way at Waterford is still in high school players shows his versatility and the strength of the staff to go out and construct a roster that is been obviously very competitive on the bus.

Teams in the ACC hilltop that is an outstanding basketball coach to put those two things together know it's a pretty good combination. I'm not sure I don't know. I don't think we can probably totally construct our roster. Similarly, can Virginia Tech no special workforce but I feel very confident that we will be very competitive. Very soon regret in your press availability earlier this week. Not asking you your thoughts on the Super Bowl because you seem very interested to talk about it will say that you look like Bruce Arians Adam Golder midday house looks kinda like Bruce Arians as well. We can honor them for that. In addition to that you been tweeting about in you." We did something I put out about Kevin Harlan's call of the streaker which I found to be entertaining.

Did you see Tom Brady at the boat parade getting off the boat and I did it but I'm sure you have a good time well deserved what people have to realize that the culmination of a lot of hard work will get to the title game anyway. You know you sacrificed so many things to get to know the person probably doesn't realize how much just sacrificed to your personal life to achieve greatness. Coach Sabin talk about their a lot about what you will give up to become great because it was easy everybody be going on. I talked to my players about that all time would put person are you going to give all sacrifice more to become great and that's the difference maker so I'm sure it was probably just let my hair down a little bit you put in. I grew up in the Midwest and some Chiefs game plan very goodin the early 70s but you know I always enjoy games on relationship with Mitchell.

She and I like him a lot and I think it will also connect robotically more first members asked where my father was watching dolphins and the Cowboys are 72 lingo that was again when Nixon called it a point after interesting I bring up next time of impeachment. Right now, but works good I can remember. Those games can symbol my dad watch moments of your house and I don't want to know so football use to watch it when I went to college I looked out while he watched.

He liked watching so really good game, watch totes, congrats on the win against BC. Best of luck against Florida State tomorrow. Thanks for doing Josh always a pleasure in the forethought to get some
