Lu'Cye Patterson reveals NIL situation with the Gophers from last season



Between the "You knows" and the interviewer having trouble efficiently setting up, then asking a direct question, this interview went about 5 to 10 minutes longer than it needed to. I give L.P. a bit of a pass because he's not a professional, but the interviewer doesn't need to ramble like that.

Believe me, I've interviewed hundreds of people and when you ramble like that, it becomes difficult for the person you're interviewing to keep their concentration and figure out what you're actually asking. It's a matter of focus, knowing what questions you want to ask and being conversational. This is why I have trouble hanging on for the entire segments of this type of platform. Same with podcasts. Just write it down, edit it down and present it as an article. This guy is probably a great writer, but free form, visual and live conversational interviews don't seem to be his thing.
