1
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,360
Speaker 1: We have a lot of roster moves to get ready

Speaker 1: of that? Rich you know, I mean, I've never been

5
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:16,959
Speaker 1: through a roster development that we went through the last

6
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: couple of days. So, I mean we're currently at seventy seven,

7
00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:22,800
Speaker 1: you know, as far as players available, you know, we

Speaker 1: Clunter coming back, Hull back, I mean the putter will

18
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 1: be coming back probably in forty eight hours. Okay, Stafford

19
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: back now correct? Yeah, and pull back I mean running

20
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 1: back to Clements on the rest of the absolutely Clemens

21
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: and Bunny, you talk a little bit about what intrigued

22
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 1: you about Will Greer and um with the three quarterbacks

23
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: on the action and bringing the new tie back. Is

24
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,919
Speaker 1: that just an acknowledgement of where you are and COVID

25
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,679
Speaker 1: protocol and held something can wipe you out in a week. Well,

26
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: I mean, I think, like anything, I think Will McClay

27
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: and in their staff do an excellent job. You know,

28
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: as as you go through training camp, you know, you're

29
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: really you know, they're they're great in tape and there

30
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 1: they're waiting against the rest of the you know, potent

31
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: prospects around the league. I mean, that's I think it's

32
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: pretty universal. So you know, Um, I'm kind of screwed

33
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: up on what day is here? So today's Thursday, So

34
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: I said, I've been Tuesday night. Um, so when that

35
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,240
Speaker 1: you know, that whole process when it come across the wire,

36
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: staying up throughout the night and then they had everything

37
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: ready for us as coaches when we came in. So

38
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: I just going through that process of looking, you know,

39
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: each position that we felt that we needed to potentially

40
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: look at. Um. You know, then going through the quarterback position,

41
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: you know, it's Will we felt was the best best

42
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: prospect out there. Um, obviously, remember when he came out

43
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: of West Virginia. You know, Doug actually coached him in Florida,

44
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: you know for a year and Doug nos Meyer, so

45
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: I had a chance of studying when he was in

46
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: Carolina two years ago. So we you know, felt like

47
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: through the personnel department and the coaching staff, we felt

48
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: like we had really good information on him and we

49
00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: thought he'd be a great fit for us, young golden up.

50
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 1: I'll pay where he is and what your game is. Well,

51
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: I don't have the exact timeline, but it was obviously

52
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: it's it's sooner than later, you know. It was the

53
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: decision not not to you know, keep him on pup

54
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 1: for the six weeks. So, um, it's exactly when he'll

55
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 1: be into the full you know, the full flow of practice.

56
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,839
Speaker 1: The probably be a couple more weeks, you know, but

57
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 1: he's getting close, getting better. So we obviously felt that

58
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: he was you know, better off, you know, coming on

59
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: to the fifty three as opposed to being on the pup.

60
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: Went back to the day. Yes, Dan's been back since Monday.

61
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: You still have Connor, Sorry, Yeah, they're they're still on

62
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: the COVID list, just talking about apologize that's what the

63
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: reviewers where he came in or I I didn't realize we're

64
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: gonna go throw us. It's been, as you know, a

65
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 1: lot of back and forth last forty eight hours, just

66
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: talking about the exactment today with those guys back, and

67
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: you can't getting ready to I mean, it's extremely exciting.

68
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: I you know, I think this is you know, this

69
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: is the kickoff to the regular season. You know, I

70
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: think really you know, sharing what we talked about in

71
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: the team meeting this morning. You know, you start a

72
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: training camp roster, really an offseason roster. You're working towards

73
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: ninety and then you go through training camp and have

74
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: a team meeting today where you have seventy seven players

75
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 1: still in the house. You know, four of them were new,

76
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: so seventy three of the ninety man roster still part

77
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: of your operation. I think it's Biggs volumes about the

78
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: commitment from the organization and to find as many means

79
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: as possible to keep these guys here, because you know,

80
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: and my own personal experience, you know, when when we

81
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: hoisted the Super Bowl Trophy and passed out the rings,

82
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: there were seventy seven players. It took to win that championship.

83
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: So I think the irony and the reality the game

84
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: of football, plus you had the seventeenth game. I mean,

85
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: it's it takes a lot of players to be successful

86
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: in this league, and I'm thrilled to that we have

87
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: our guys, you know, we have we have the majority

88
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: of our guys that we've been with. You know, we

89
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: have you know, second year guys, you know, ready to

90
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 1: make that leap. You know, we have an excellent rookie class.

91
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: So I have a strong, strong contingency of veterans. Uh.

92
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 1: I really like the mix of our roster. Forty three

93
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: percent of our rosters knew from last year. I think

94
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,560
Speaker 1: that speaks volumes of the direction we're going. So I

95
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,039
Speaker 1: think we have a lot of growth and development in

96
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: front of us. We alsos have to pull together quickly,

97
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: have a great week or preparation to go get this

98
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: win in Tampa. Guys C and D have and practice together.

99
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: You know, while how do they what do you do

100
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: to get them kind of go on? Or do you

101
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: think that's well, it's something you everything you can. So,

102
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,679
Speaker 1: I mean it's within the realm of our practice structure,

103
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 1: and you know, if there's extra throwing and so forth.

104
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: You know, we're you know, we're in a game plan mode.

105
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: You know, we're we put in normal D and D

106
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,359
Speaker 1: and third down today. This would be like a mid

107
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: season Wednesday, so you know, we were we're in a

108
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 1: game plan schemes specific as far as our operation, you know.

109
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: But I think anytime you have a chance to compete,

110
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: which we'll do when we get into the next UM

111
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: to Sunday Monday phase of a week of preparation, we'll

112
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 1: maybe have a couple of competitive pairs or at least

113
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:04,760
Speaker 1: one each day, because I do want to get that

114
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: going to answer your questions, So I think it'll definitely

115
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 1: help guys that haven't had some reps here of late.

116
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: Did you guys have any interest had any Cam Newton?

117
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 1: And if not, I mean they you know, just sit

118
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: there and we'll talk about any of the players and

119
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 1: on a roster. I don't think there's really anything that

120
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: beneficial that comes out of that for us. But Cam's

121
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: had a chance to compete against Cam Um, you know,

122
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 1: a chance to watch you know, some of this tape

123
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: in New England. So I still think he has a

124
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: ton of a ton of football left. But you know,

125
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: we were very excited about the group that we have

126
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:41,040
Speaker 1: cd KY. They're conditioning, you know, being out and talk

127
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: about what they need and what kind of schagory. Yeah,

128
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I just think every one of them was

129
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 1: specific to how, you know, how they were dealing with

130
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 1: their time off. So there was some personal conditioning that

131
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 1: went on the last couple of days. So that was

132
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: great to see. CDs has been in, you know, seeing

133
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: the trainers and so forth, so we feel like we're

134
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: on top of that and you know, these guys are

135
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 1: in tune with what they need to do, and we

136
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,520
Speaker 1: understand the game we're getting ready to get into here

137
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: and you know, nobody knows their body better than native.

138
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: So we're on top of it more and more accepting

139
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: that last time in twenty nineteen on a team that

140
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: now that things are different than it will never go

141
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: back to the way it wasn't were coastal lasting bad.

142
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: You know, I hope you're wrong. That's a great question.

143
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: I clearly understand why you're asking. Um, you know, change

144
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: has always been part of the National Football League. I

145
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: think if you just look at the roster development and

146
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: how all came together here in the last two days

147
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: and still the fluency of what we're dealing with here

148
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: the next you know, twenty four twenty four hours. I

149
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: think it clearly is an illustration of change changes constant

150
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: in this league. But you can't you deny that the

151
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: pandemic and the stressors of COVID protocols and all the

152
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: other things that surround our our games, to surround our

153
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 1: society is is definitely enhanced and there's more change that

154
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: we're dealing with. So um, but yes, it's it's different

155
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 1: now we're all going through it, and it's frankly, it's

156
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 1: I think as a as a leader of a football

157
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 1: operations and how you structure things, you got you got

158
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: to anticipate more and you just got to be ready

159
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: to move your feet and have have guys ready because it's, uh,

160
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: it seems to continue to be a movement target and

161
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: the challenge. It looks like a couple of guys in

162
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: your rookie class are going to step in and start

163
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: for you right away. Can you talk about the rookie

164
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,080
Speaker 1: class overalls, just what you expect to get immediately and

165
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: if what you've seen from some other guys when they

166
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: positioned to work in and help the singer rather than

167
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 1: the later this year. I mean, the biggest thing for

168
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: a rookie class is to contribute, you know, regardless of

169
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 1: its offense, defense, or special teams. You know, and you

170
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: know as you as you project coming out of the

171
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,480
Speaker 1: roster development and now you have to get into a weekly,

172
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,319
Speaker 1: weekly planning of you know who the forty eight. You

173
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: know players are going to be so um and not

174
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,880
Speaker 1: only if they're not a part of that initial forty eight.

175
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: And given as far as going down to the practice squads,

176
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,840
Speaker 1: because I had a very similar conversation when each and

177
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,080
Speaker 1: every one of them, you know, their expectation is to

178
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 1: prepare and grow each week because there's going to be

179
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 1: a time throughout the season that they're gonna be called upon,

180
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: you know, maybe November, maybe December, and as we all know,

181
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 1: those are those are the biggest games of the year.

182
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 1: So we just got to make sure everybody's doing everything

183
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: they need to do extra um, put the extra time

184
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,680
Speaker 1: in to make sure they're ready each and every week,

185
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: because the whole team's got to grow. I mean, that's

186
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,560
Speaker 1: that's the only way you're able to win successfully and

187
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: winking with consistency in this league, coming background and special

188
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: teams how big of a part of that was adding

189
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 1: in it? I mean, yeah, definitely, it's part of it.

190
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 1: I mean it's you know, you look at the third

191
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: the third running back on your active you know, game

192
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 1: day roster. I mean that's that's important. You know. You

193
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: look at Rico last year. How he evolved, you know,

194
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 1: is a great comparable. Yeah, it's it's definitely part of

195
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 1: it with career and having to pick up this offic

196
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,559
Speaker 1: you know as you get going here, how quarterback friendly

197
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: or how I know it's not easy, but how do

198
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: you guys kind of beat up a process with it? Well,

199
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: I mean, Frank and we broke them out individually. Um,

200
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: you know, Kellen ran the quarterback meeting and Doug took

201
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: Will in a one on one session today because obviously

202
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 1: just got in. So we'll do the best we can.

203
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 1: I mean, there's the biggest The biggest challenge is always

204
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: the language. You know, it's you know, mastering the language

205
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: is is what you have to get to, you know,

206
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 1: is where you're going to get to. I mean, you

207
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: know they you know, defense still lines up with eleven.

208
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 1: You know we're gonna put eleven out there too, So

209
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, how you handle certain protection adjustments. Really,

210
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 1: what the call is a lot of it is language

211
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 1: and starting point because you know, there's usually two ways

212
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: to do things in this league, whether it's run checks

213
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: or protection checks or how you read a progression. Starting

214
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: points are important. So I think just giving him clarity

215
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: on that, and then probably the third part of it

216
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: is the cadence. You know, he needs to get his

217
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 1: cadence in line with THATX, you know, just to make

218
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: sure we have rhythm and the continuity there at the

219
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: line of screaming. So, I mean, that's that's to me,

220
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 1: that's those are the priorities for will Well. Well, I

221
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,599
Speaker 1: don't look at it as a message to Cooper. I

222
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 1: think it's I think it's just a message to you know,

223
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: trying to continue to be competitive and and trying to

224
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: improve your roster. So uh, you know, once again, I

225
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: think anytime you add someone from the outside, you know,

226
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: it brings competition, and competition is good, Conflict is good.

227
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: I mean, it's you know, I think you have to

228
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: have that at the workplace. You know, you want that

229
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: type of environment, you know, want the climate to continue

230
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 1: to compete. We're gonna do some more competitive drills, um,

231
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: you know, hopefully things stay the same. But if we

232
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: can stay in a regular season regularity, you know of

233
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:47,719
Speaker 1: how we practice each and every week, you know, we'll

234
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 1: line up and have a competitive drill on Wednesday, went

235
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 1: on Thursday. We're gonna do some We're gonna do some

236
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: drills with the young players this year that we haven't done.

237
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,640
Speaker 1: I haven't done in probably a decade. So, I mean, so,

238
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: I think anytime you can add competition, it's a benefits

239
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:06,839
Speaker 1: to your to your program. Just have young young guy competition.

240
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 1: Drill um, let the cat out of the bag. Just

241
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:14,439
Speaker 1: look for next week and the padded practice. Something's side scoop. Yeah, ah, sorry,

242
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,679
Speaker 1: I thought they were gone with the I think you're

243
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 1: a low of fourteen padded practices. Does this week count

244
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:26,200
Speaker 1: towards that? You know? Yeah, you mean this sextra here. Yeah,

245
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:28,960
Speaker 1: that's a great question. I think you have one padded

246
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: practice and you're technically in the bye week. You know,

247
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,679
Speaker 1: this is technically our bye week before UM and then

248
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: our regular week one starts Sunday? Is my understanding? Do

249
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 1: you know of that? Then they three days off? Did

250
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,080
Speaker 1: he have guys up at his back yard field and

251
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,720
Speaker 1: working guys out or anything? On his own. I'll let

252
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 1: you you know, I'll let you save a couple of

253
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:54,959
Speaker 1: questions for Dak. So your your expectations of Parsons were

254
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: hobnously high. You know where you drafted him, but you

255
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: don't know about guys and what they can absorb and Jill,

256
00:12:59,920 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 1: you work with him. Has he impressed you with his

257
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,200
Speaker 1: ability to be parts of lots of different packages and

258
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: maybe gave you a little more versatility early than you

259
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 1: were unsure of that he could do. Definitely, I think

260
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 1: he's absorbed it very well. I mean, you know, the

261
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 1: play three positions, you know, I think at at a

262
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: young age, you know, I think he's adjusted very nicely.

263
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: You know. You know, actually Dan and Mica have a

264
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: one on one meeting you know, uh uh you know,

265
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 1: during the game plan segment of it, so you know,

266
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: it's kind of like a quarterback meeting, just because he

267
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,319
Speaker 1: does have to go in and out of two different rooms.

268
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: So I think I think he's he's handled very well.

269
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: I mean, just as far as going through the installs

270
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: who practice you know, he uh he you know, he

271
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 1: could see it and go get it. I mean, I

272
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,640
Speaker 1: think that's obviously his best trade. But he's he's been

273
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 1: very assignment sound do anything the next two days and

274
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: he's gonna wait until Sunday he get him gone up. Well,

275
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: you know we're waiting. Um so Jim Jim, Jim Jim

276
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:02,719
Speaker 1: wants to hold off on see right now. So a

277
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: good one he should be, he should do he should

278
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 1: do it a little bit. Yeah, I won't do anything today.

279
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: How important to you? It's frustrating practices guys building kind

280
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: of their own energy. You know, we've seen a little

281
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: bit hard knights for focusing about like we can't be

282
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 1: doing this all the time before you you know, you

283
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: guys have to be able to build your own energy.

284
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 1: You can't be about having music kind of things. Like

285
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: how important is that for especially in the practice setting.

286
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's important. It's important for everybody. I mean,

287
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 1: everybody has the responsibility to bring good energy to the workplace.

288
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: I think the most important thing is I've always looked

289
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: for consistency. I think it's important for people to stay

290
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: within their personality consistent, you know, be consistent. I mean

291
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: it's it's I think if you're up and down every day,

292
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 1: you're gonna you know, there's a good chance you're probably

293
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,840
Speaker 1: gonna perform that way. So I think the biggest thing

294
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: is to your point, is probably being aware of it.

295
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 1: Because energy is important. I think we all can get

296
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 1: two technical to cerebral. I think there's a time and

297
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: place for that in the in the daily you know

298
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 1: operation of you know, maybe meetings and so forth. But

299
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: you know, the practice field is the most important thing

300
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: we do each day. We put a tremendous amount of

301
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: time and energy into you know, how the practice is

302
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 1: laid out, the specific drills are going to do. You

303
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: know who's going to get how many reps in each drill?

304
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: On the parade of carded you know, you can get

305
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 1: an exact look for the in the offensive defense. So

306
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: there's a tremendous amount of time and energy that goes

307
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: into that. So with that, you want to make sure

308
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: you get that out of it. So UM, did not

309
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 1: have energy during practice is probably you know, it's definitely

310
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 1: a recipe for it not to go the way you're

311
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: looking for. So UM, So I think that's definitely important.

312
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 1: But also, UM, I think it's important to recognize today

313
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: the regular season starts, you know, our practices will be

314
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: different than they were leading up to. Now you know,

315
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: I know, part just for me personally, you know, I'm

316
00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: in personnel evaluation mode throughout training camp, you know, and

317
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:58,480
Speaker 1: now it's now it's time to win a game. You know,

318
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:00,400
Speaker 1: we need to get the things right to need to

319
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 1: be right. I got to make sure that veteran players

320
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: are get enough reps in those in those drills, you know,

321
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: particularly guys that made a lot of practice next to

322
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: the this guy you know in a week and so forth.

323
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,680
Speaker 1: And so I mean that's I think that's why coaches,

324
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 1: I know why, that's why coaches work the hours you do,

325
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 1: because you want to make sure you're getting these guys

326
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: a really good script to get ready, so get ready

327
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 1: to win. He concerned about Layout being available for the game.

328
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 1: Um No, I really don't know. I mean, you know,

329
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: as far as where he is, you know, as far

330
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,720
Speaker 1: as the physical, um chip, Jim's wants to be cautious

331
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:36,920
Speaker 1: right now. So um, but you know that can change

332
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: them are I mean it's they haven't given me a

333
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: you know, um diagnosis as far as you know, he's

334
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: out a week or something like that. So I think

335
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: if he doesn't go today in tomorrow, I think I

336
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 1: assume that he probably have an excellent chance going Sunday,

337
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,600
Speaker 1: ning to field goal or want to overdue Annas. He's

338
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 1: still I mean, he has a kicking regiment, and I

339
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,120
Speaker 1: think it's you know, it's part of the message today

340
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: about the veteran players and make sure they get you know,

341
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,959
Speaker 1: the proper drill work. I think feedback when a guy

342
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: gets up to six to seven, you know, if nine

343
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 1: guys that played seven plus years in this league, so

344
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,360
Speaker 1: you know, you trust their routines, and you know their

345
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: rep you know their rep count and exactly you know,

346
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: and and John has you know, Fossil has a long

347
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: history with with all of our specialists. So no, I

348
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: trust the regiment. Are you Are you pleased with the

349
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: work that Olsa did after Nevil went out and help

350
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:39,199
Speaker 1: he kind of sees that opportunity. Yeah, definitely. I mean

351
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: I think just the way he played in the preseason

352
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,400
Speaker 1: speaks for itself. And you know, you just see the

353
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 1: way he's been able to roll in there, you know,

354
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: throughout you know, practicing games. So I mean he's really

355
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 1: done an excellent job with his with his opportunities. So

356
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 1: I think he's done an excellent job. Very happy with us.

357
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,359
Speaker 1: You think about how much more an opportunity to team

358
00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 1: and you have a campus team together and the three

359
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: team this year, how do you think that will transplate

360
00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,359
Speaker 1: onto the field in terms of just kind of franking

361
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:10,080
Speaker 1: attent You know, Uh, last year is so hard to compare.

362
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: I mean, even even as something as simple as comparing

363
00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:15,840
Speaker 1: the GPS workload of our practice last year to this year,

364
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's uh, it's significantly different. But yeah,

365
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden every time you've asked me

366
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: this question, we just need time together. We need more

367
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 1: time together. We need to make sure our time together

368
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 1: in season and in season work week is extremely efficient.

369
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: You know, obviously it's going to be detailed, but the

370
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,959
Speaker 1: efficiency and it leads to the quality and we just

371
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 1: you know, we we got to establish a little more

372
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 1: consistency throughout, you know, our operation, and that that will

373
00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 1: happen this week because you know, everybody will be practicing together.

374
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 1: And um, so I'm looking forward to a great week

375
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:52,399
Speaker 1: of preparation and a lot of positive feedback from your

376
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:56,040

00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,920
Speaker 1: but Harry still reporter to day that his team was

380
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: one hundred percent back to the team. Uh close, you know,

381
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,040

382
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,399
Speaker 1: weeks ago. Yeah, I know, we had some guys on
