Speaker 1: All right, football back. You know, John, we we've been uh,
Speaker 1: we've been yacking here for about the last you know,
Speaker 1: five and a half months with with not a whole
Speaker 1: lot going on, and now all of a sudden, you know,
Speaker 1: it's you know, a couple of days ago there was
Speaker 1: nothing going on. Then all of a sudden, training camp
Speaker 1: opens and everything's going on and football's back, and it's um.
Speaker 1: I couldn't be more excited, John, to be here right
Speaker 1: now and and and watch this football team getting ready
Speaker 1: to go. And you know, I know, I know there's
Speaker 1: a lot of question marks about this team. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of different opinions, whether it's a local or whether
Speaker 1: it's national, but uh, you know, I just I just
Speaker 1: feel like I'm watching a football team that's, uh, that's
Speaker 1: destined for some good things. I'm not sure if it's
Speaker 1: gonna be early this year, later this year, or maybe
Speaker 1: not this year at all, but maybe next year. But boy,
Speaker 1: there's something different about this team right now that I
Speaker 1: feel that I see that makes me feel optimistic. I'm
Speaker 1: usually optimistic anyway, but it makes me feel more optimistic,
Speaker 1: and I'm I'm pretty happy about it. John kN Jemmy
Speaker 1: Kimbo camp with a year on the audible and uh,
Speaker 1: it's just fun to be back jar it is, you know,
Speaker 1: and you hit it perfectly because fans are in the stands,
Speaker 1: guys are on the field, coaches are coaching, guys are
Speaker 1: making plays and and it seemed to me, at least
Speaker 1: in the first day of training camp, that it was
Speaker 1: a continuation. It was a ramped up continuation of what
Speaker 1: we saw during O T A s. You know, guys
Speaker 1: executing at a high level, Guys moving around at a
Speaker 1: good pace, Coaches correcting when they need to, kind of
Speaker 1: patent guys on the back, a lot of good plays
Speaker 1: out there. You know, really it's about skill guys when
Speaker 1: you're out there with helmets and and and maybe you know,
Speaker 1: just shells on. But it was good to see guys
Speaker 1: flying around and training camps here. And it tricks you
Speaker 1: every year, you know, around July four, you kind of think, well,
Speaker 1: I've got three more weeks, I got plenty of time,
Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, you snap your fingers and
Speaker 1: you're you're sweating like crazy, and it's humid and it's hot,
Speaker 1: and it's guys playing football, and it's what you expect
Speaker 1: to see on the first day, I saw a lot
Speaker 1: of really good things that a lot of things to
Speaker 1: build on, a lot of things to correct, But it's
Speaker 1: good to see the Miami Dolphins back out on the foot.
Speaker 1: You know what I saw John The first thing that
Speaker 1: jumped out to me. Um And again, I'm still kind
Speaker 1: of in that in that mode where I'm watching players,
Speaker 1: but I'm also watching the staff and seeing how they
Speaker 1: manage these players and how they're gonna get these players
Speaker 1: into the frame of mind that they expect them and
Speaker 1: are gonna demand that they're in come opening day for
Speaker 1: this football team. And to me, it was small things.
Speaker 1: The first thing I saw just watching them stretch, you know,
Speaker 1: the simple going through your stretches and your calisthenics to
Speaker 1: get started with practice. Usually it's kind of going through
Speaker 1: the motions. There was no going through the motions. Everybody
Speaker 1: was in tune. Everybody was going through it like it
Speaker 1: meant something. And then they broke calisenates and went right
Speaker 1: to right to drills where we're conditioning drills where you're
Speaker 1: you're running, you're not stopping, you're going you're going over
Speaker 1: you're going over dummies, you're going around dummies, you're doing
Speaker 1: things and it's it's it's a loosening up, but it's
Speaker 1: also conditioning and it's one of the things that we
Speaker 1: talked about, John, I think looking at this football team
Speaker 1: coming off of the off season, come off of O
Speaker 1: T A S, coming off of Mini camp. Uh, I
Speaker 1: think this team knew that they better be in shape
Speaker 1: coming in here because he's gonna bring them. I think
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a pretty grueling camp from them. From
Speaker 1: a conditioning standpoint, I think we've seen some of that already.
Speaker 1: And and the good thing John is I think he
Speaker 1: cranked it up a little bit out there for the
Speaker 1: beginning of training camp. And I didn't see anybody out
Speaker 1: there huffing and puffing. Well, you wouldn't have thought this
Speaker 1: was the first day of training camp. There was no
Speaker 1: getting into shape and gradually doing that. These guys are
Speaker 1: in peak performance and it's about sharpening their skills. As
Speaker 1: you said, the very first drills ball a ball, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, control drill guys, are you know, snapping at
Speaker 1: the football, you fumble, you're running, you know. Just it's
Speaker 1: just a mental approach that Brian Flores is bringing, not
Speaker 1: only him but throughout his staff of being and able
Speaker 1: to be accountable. He wants to you know, he said
Speaker 1: it today in his press conference. He wants a smart, tough, physical,
Speaker 1: disciplined football team. I saw all of those things today
Speaker 1: and it's just day one. You're gonna build off a
Speaker 1: day one. And the one thing he really did say
Speaker 1: today and he focused on and I think this is
Speaker 1: true of any team, but this team, especially a young
Speaker 1: football team that's trying to prove people wrong. You know,
Speaker 1: doubters from not only South Florida but around the country,
Speaker 1: is about I'm only concerned, and this is Brian Flores.
Speaker 1: I'm only concerned about today. I want to worry about today.
Speaker 1: I want to get through today, and I wanted to
Speaker 1: be sharp. I wanted to be the way we wanted
Speaker 1: to look when we go in in the meeting room
Speaker 1: and watch it on film, and then I want to
Speaker 1: worry about tomorrow. I'm not worried about yesterday. I want
Speaker 1: to worry about today and staying in the moment and
Speaker 1: staying focused about how this team is gonna get better
Speaker 1: on a daily basis. Yeah, I think that's it, and
Speaker 1: it's it's you know it is it's it's it's kind
Speaker 1: of baby steps at this point because look, everyone's still
Speaker 1: getting to know each other. You got to know each
Speaker 1: other during the offseason when it was shorts and T shirts.
Speaker 1: Now it's gonna get a little more intense, and you're
Speaker 1: gonna see different things coming out of different people, both
Speaker 1: from coaches and from players. The guy that looked really
Speaker 1: good during O T A s you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: I look so good when when you when you crank
Speaker 1: it us and in these things. And we've seen that before.
Speaker 1: And there are other guys that look pretty good, no
Speaker 1: t you go, man, they transitioned over to once they
Speaker 1: put the pads on, and I think they're gonna practice
Speaker 1: some pads a fair amount during this. They're gonna get
Speaker 1: him in. You know, there's gonna be some of those
Speaker 1: guys who are gonna get into those pads and shrink
Speaker 1: a little bit. They're gonna be other guys are gonna
Speaker 1: gett those pads and there and they're gonna grow a
Speaker 1: little bit. And you do you look for that, and
Speaker 1: I think you could see that. And they didn't really
Speaker 1: shy away from anything. They went a little goal line,
Speaker 1: they went you know, red zone, they went you know,
Speaker 1: seven on seven. In terms of being able to go
Speaker 1: individually and build up to certain things. But it was
Speaker 1: it was good to see, you know, red zone passing,
Speaker 1: red zone running. Uh, you know, having one team out
Speaker 1: on the field and everybody else on the sidelines, and
Speaker 1: you go through five or six plays, then you flip
Speaker 1: to the twos and you kind of go that way
Speaker 1: and and and mix into threes. It was really I
Speaker 1: thought the coaching staff on day one touched every facet
Speaker 1: of this football team with special teams, with individual drills,
Speaker 1: and it looked like a really good continuation of what
Speaker 1: they built in the spring. Yeah, that's right back in
Speaker 1: Football Power by South Florida. For the training camp schedule,
Speaker 1: as we said, we started on Thursday, got at it.
Speaker 1: They're gonna have a scrimmage on Saturday, August three that
Speaker 1: will be at the hard Rock Stadium. Always a good
Speaker 1: chance to kind of get a good feel after first
Speaker 1: week of Pres'll have our umbrellas ready, we're gonna go
Speaker 1: up in the air and we're gonna we're gonna do
Speaker 1: it from there we go. We're got a little more
Speaker 1: demanding after that setup we had last year. You know,
Speaker 1: we could use a little you could use a little lemonade,
Speaker 1: this little something like that out there, bigger umbrella maybe
Speaker 1: would be would be nice and and maybe get loans cover.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe we get tray and logan with a fan
Speaker 1: and they can just call oscillating out there and do that.
Speaker 1: So we'll all be out there. But look, there's gonna
Speaker 1: be a lot of practice, a lot of opportunities for
Speaker 1: fans to come out and Day one pretty good, pretty
Speaker 1: good fans out there, I thought so too. A lot
Speaker 1: of energy, a lot of owen and eying when you
Speaker 1: know touchdowns were caught or a defender makes a good play,
Speaker 1: or you know, you see a quarterback make a nice throw.
Speaker 1: A lot of excitement and energy, and that's what you
Speaker 1: need for this football team. They want to build on
Speaker 1: things and it might be the smallest thing on day one,
Speaker 1: but they want that to, you know, to have a
Speaker 1: foundation of where they're going. John, I'm sitting there trying
Speaker 1: to kind of put things down and and see who's
Speaker 1: coming out with the ones and where everyone is and
Speaker 1: a lot of changes going on, but you kind of
Speaker 1: keep an eye on it. And obviously the one one
Speaker 1: position that's gonna be, uh, you know, really in the
Speaker 1: spotlight throughout this training camp is gonna be the quarterback spot.
Speaker 1: And I think you can still see that Ryan Fitzpatrick
Speaker 1: has got a little a little more, a little better
Speaker 1: command in this offense, a little better. He's a little
Speaker 1: more comfortable back there. Uh, Josh Rosen, you know, I
Speaker 1: I think it's only to me, it would it would
Speaker 1: only be him in nature for Josh to be a
Speaker 1: little bit nervous, Uh, be a little bit eager and
Speaker 1: wanted to show some things and trying to push a
Speaker 1: little bit. But he's got to find his level. Uh.
Speaker 1: And and and that's gonna be you know, ultimately, you
Speaker 1: know you got uh you know you got Josh in
Speaker 1: there too. Uh, I mean Jake Rudok in there too.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Who's who is certainly bad. I don't want
Speaker 1: to leave him out of the mix. But but it's
Speaker 1: a two horse it's a two horse race to start
Speaker 1: going into going into this right now, unless Jake comes
Speaker 1: out and just lights him up and says, hey, you
Speaker 1: know it's got guys. Time is here. But let's see
Speaker 1: what we got there. But for the most parts, and
Speaker 1: I think what we saw day one is kind of
Speaker 1: what you expected. The more polished guy in Fitzpatrick and
Speaker 1: Rosen still trying to feel his way out out there.
Speaker 1: I think so. And it really it's not shocking to
Speaker 1: me to see that because you've got a guy with
Speaker 1: that amount of experience. You know, this going into his
Speaker 1: fifteenth year in the National Football League, He's probably seen
Speaker 1: every offense conceivably that you could run in the National
Speaker 1: Football League. And you know, command of his throws, timing
Speaker 1: of his throws, location of the of the football, all
Speaker 1: those things that you would expect from a veteran, a
Speaker 1: guy that's been around guys had really good success in
Speaker 1: the National Football League, and guy that is trying to
Speaker 1: win a job. I mean when he was signed. You
Speaker 1: go back to the off season, when he was signed,
Speaker 1: it was one of thirty two jobs. And that's why
Speaker 1: he came to the Miami Dolphins. He said, you know,
Speaker 1: there's not that many people that can do this at
Speaker 1: this level, and I want to be that guy. And
Speaker 1: you see the confidence and more importantly, you see the
Speaker 1: execution when he's out on the field. You know, you
Speaker 1: start looking around at and other guys that jump out
Speaker 1: out there. And I know it was early, it's earlier
Speaker 1: in training camp, but boy, calin Balage, I mean I
Speaker 1: looked at him and he's you know, you can tell
Speaker 1: he's he's figured out what it takes to be a
Speaker 1: professional player. Uh came in last year, got limited exposure.
Speaker 1: When he got the chance, certainly showed what he can do.
Speaker 1: And I think you I think he's a different guy
Speaker 1: out there now. I think you can just look at
Speaker 1: the way he carries himself, the way he goes about
Speaker 1: his business. I think he's ready to go out there
Speaker 1: and and and say, hey, Kenyan, you know the jobs.
Speaker 1: If you think this job is yours, you know you
Speaker 1: better you better pack a lunch because it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a long haul. I'm going after it. Well you could see,
Speaker 1: I mean it's only one day of training camp, but
Speaker 1: you know, no pads naturally, But he broke a run
Speaker 1: today that reminded you of the run he broke against Minnesota,
Speaker 1: the seventy five yard. I mean, he was through the
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, off to the races. Once he got
Speaker 1: to the secondary, nobody was gonna catch him. And it
Speaker 1: was just one of those things that he gives you
Speaker 1: that second and third gear once he gets to that
Speaker 1: second level. And he's a big, physical running back and
Speaker 1: I only hope that he pushes, you know, Kenyan that
Speaker 1: far because it's gonna make both of those guys better.
Speaker 1: It's gonna make that position better at running back, no
Speaker 1: doubt about that. Jachem Grant, who will we I think
Speaker 1: we're gonna try to catch up with a little bit
Speaker 1: in the program. Jachim boy I was up there and
Speaker 1: you know, and then up there with like the other
Speaker 1: media guys and and they're talking to a couple of
Speaker 1: guys and go man, Jachem Grant coming back from injury.
Speaker 1: That guys, he's the first guy in line in every drill,
Speaker 1: first guy to do every thing, and he's doing everything
Speaker 1: with a major purpose. When when he's out there, when
Speaker 1: he was the other guy that that you know, it
Speaker 1: just jumps out at you and goes, wow. That guy's
Speaker 1: he's kind of working on a different level out there,
Speaker 1: and and he's bringing other guys along. You can not
Speaker 1: only his individual play at practice in training camp on
Speaker 1: day one, but other guys that are making good plays
Speaker 1: or a guy that misses the past, or a guy
Speaker 1: that runs the wrong route, he's the first guy kind
Speaker 1: of picking him up and bringing him back in line
Speaker 1: and kind of talking with him. If it's a young guy,
Speaker 1: you see a lot of things. You see a lot
Speaker 1: of growth, you see a lot of maturity, and you
Speaker 1: see a lot of production. You know, this is a
Speaker 1: guy that really didn't know where he fit in three
Speaker 1: or four years ago, and now he's going into his
Speaker 1: fourth season. He's an outside receiver. He's a guy with
Speaker 1: blazing speed. He has great quickness coming in and out
Speaker 1: of routes, and he's becoming more dependable and on a
Speaker 1: team that needs playmakers that are looking for guys to
Speaker 1: take the next step. Boy, if you get that guy
Speaker 1: and building on his season last year, if he stays
Speaker 1: healthy and on the field and he's productive, that just
Speaker 1: gives you another weapon on the outside for this off
Speaker 1: That being said, I look at Albert Wilson and and
Speaker 1: I'll tell you one thing about Albert Wilson. I didn't
Speaker 1: realize how big he thought. That guy's got some That
Speaker 1: guy got some legs. Yeah, he's strong, down down, waist
Speaker 1: down that that that guy is a strong, strong dude.
Speaker 1: He's coming back from injury. I don't think he's too
Speaker 1: I don't think he's not. And you can see him
Speaker 1: like you know, they're running somebody. He went through every
Speaker 1: drill out there, doing everything that he could do. But
Speaker 1: sometimes coming out of the break, just a little little
Speaker 1: little tentative coming out of the break, and you come
Speaker 1: out and you come back from a knee injury, you're
Speaker 1: you're gonna you gotta convince yourself you you can go
Speaker 1: and you can go through all the measurables, you can
Speaker 1: go on all these different UH machines that they have
Speaker 1: to test your strength or get you where you want
Speaker 1: to be. UM. But until you go out there and
Speaker 1: you believe it in your between those between your ears,
Speaker 1: until you start believing in there, it's a tough, tough
Speaker 1: grind to get through and get yourself into that frame
Speaker 1: of mind where you believe you can do everything that
Speaker 1: you used to do well. I think he's, you know,
Speaker 1: going to work his way back as training camp moves along,
Speaker 1: as the preseason moves along. I think you're gonna see
Speaker 1: his his UH energy level because of what you said, Hey,
Speaker 1: I just you know it's gonna be hurdles for him. Hey,
Speaker 1: I was able to do this today. I feel a
Speaker 1: lot better about doing this. Now I'm gonna crank it up.
Speaker 1: Maybe you know he was at seventy percent today, Maybe
Speaker 1: I'm cranking five tested a little bit and I think
Speaker 1: he's gonna go through practices, and I think the Dolphins
Speaker 1: have to be smart in terms of even if he's
Speaker 1: at a hundred percent, you're clear to go, you've got
Speaker 1: the green light. I think they still want to temper
Speaker 1: back what they give him and kind of spoon feed
Speaker 1: his reps as he gets into individual and then he
Speaker 1: graduates to maybe seven on seven, he gets in some
Speaker 1: team drills, he does some stuff on the side. You know,
Speaker 1: after individual, he was on the side working on his conditioning,
Speaker 1: working on his ball skills, working on the things he
Speaker 1: can do at a hundred percent. That's gonna get him
Speaker 1: to the level a B in two weeks where it's
Speaker 1: not an issue anymore. The good thing, though, is that
Speaker 1: he was he participating in drills with everyone else. I mean,
Speaker 1: you know, usually you see a guy and they've got
Speaker 1: him over the side all the time. But you know,
Speaker 1: just going through the drills, just going through the individual,
Speaker 1: you know, he's out there with the guys and he's ready.
Speaker 1: You know, he's he's gonna be. I think it's smart
Speaker 1: for the Miami Dolphins not to just throw him out
Speaker 1: on day one, say hey have at it. I think
Speaker 1: they're going about it in the right right frame of mind,
Speaker 1: Kenny Stills looking like you expect Kenny Stills to look
Speaker 1: out there looking good. The one thing that I'm I'm
Speaker 1: I'm looking at again, and we talked about this before,
Speaker 1: is that offensive line kind of I think the way
Speaker 1: I saw it today was you had Tonsil out there,
Speaker 1: Um sixty four, got Read read is out there, uh
Speaker 1: d k in the middle, Kill Gore at the middle.
Speaker 1: Then you got Jesse Jesse, and then you've got the
Speaker 1: Jordan Hills the other tackle out there. So that's the
Speaker 1: offensive line the way it's the way it stands right now.
Speaker 1: And John I would expect that to be a little
Speaker 1: bit of a a position. That's a little bit of
Speaker 1: a revolving door. Early in training camp, uh to to
Speaker 1: look at some of the other guys out there. You
Speaker 1: certainly want to to to see the young guys out there.
Speaker 1: Michael Dieter. You want to see Michael Dieter. And you
Speaker 1: know he spent a lot of time with that first year,
Speaker 1: during the off season, the dots and in mini camps.
Speaker 1: How long does it take him to see if he
Speaker 1: can get in get some reps with number one and
Speaker 1: established himself. Is Jesse Davis gonna be able to man
Speaker 1: that position and own that position. Uh and and and
Speaker 1: Read is that is? Is that the off season acquisition
Speaker 1: that fits in where you give you buy some time
Speaker 1: for a guy like Michael Dieter to kind of catch
Speaker 1: up to the speed and the pace and his strength
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. I think you're right, But I
Speaker 1: think that position alone, along with the running backs, and
Speaker 1: I think you'll see some mixing and matching to see
Speaker 1: how guys play with each other and how much can
Speaker 1: Michael Dieter prove that he played three positions in college?
Speaker 1: Can he kick inside the center if something happens to Kilgore?
Speaker 1: Can he you know, can he play both guard positions?
Speaker 1: Can can guys do those things? Can Read not only
Speaker 1: play left card but kick in the center. So you've
Speaker 1: got some position flexibility up there. And I think that
Speaker 1: will be up to this staff and coach flattery to
Speaker 1: kind of see who plays best where and with who.
Speaker 1: But I think you're, you know, your fixtures on the outside,
Speaker 1: those guys you're depending on, you know. I I think
Speaker 1: we always talk about Laramie Tunsel making that next step
Speaker 1: and and and he played had a heck of a
Speaker 1: year last year, But can he be a consistent pro
Speaker 1: bowler that you don't even worry about left tackle. Your
Speaker 1: soul focus is who's gonna win the right tackle spot,
Speaker 1: and you're hoping it's Mills because he has experienced. Guy's
Speaker 1: been seven years, he's played a lot of football, knows
Speaker 1: what he's doing. Give the young guys like Prince, the
Speaker 1: kid they draft out Ohio State, give him a chance
Speaker 1: to see if he can mature, stir up and be
Speaker 1: a place. Stir up these young guys, and and really,
Speaker 1: you know, if you can get those five guys set,
Speaker 1: I think there's enough talented guys there that can provide
Speaker 1: you with depth and and the ability to play multiple
Speaker 1: positions out there that that you you probably don't end
Speaker 1: Hopefully you don't end up in the same situation last
Speaker 1: year where that offensive line after three two weeks that
Speaker 1: that it was it was patchwork. From from week three
Speaker 1: on it seemed like, well, it made it tough. It
Speaker 1: made it tough for the offense to have that cohesion
Speaker 1: and consistency, especially at offensive line. Those guys need to
Speaker 1: play without any inhibition. It's really you know, you're communicating,
Speaker 1: but you're also doing it by repetition and guys, you know,
Speaker 1: getting to the second level and leverage and how much
Speaker 1: you know when you're on a double team, how you're
Speaker 1: coming off, what angle you're taking to get to that
Speaker 1: linebacker to you know, to be able to make the
Speaker 1: running game more successful on first down, as as it
Speaker 1: did later in the season when those guys got a
Speaker 1: little bit of uh cohesive, you know together as an
Speaker 1: offensive line. You know. I was talking to talking to
Speaker 1: Joe Rose over there and and and we're talking, said,
Speaker 1: you know, where, where's your concern on which side of
Speaker 1: the football, Which side of the football do you think
Speaker 1: is ahead of the game right now? And then we're
Speaker 1: talking with a couple other guys and they're going, oh,
Speaker 1: do you I think the offense? I said, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think Joe and I both agreed. I think the
Speaker 1: defense is. I have less concerned for the defense than
Speaker 1: I do for the offense, only because I think that
Speaker 1: the backside of the defense is loaded with with talented players.
Speaker 1: I think that linebacking corps is is gonna be better
Speaker 1: than they were last year. And the question is up front,
Speaker 1: where's the pass rush gonna come from? But I think
Speaker 1: that can be answered and we talked about it a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago. John, you can a lot of
Speaker 1: that can come from scheme. You know, if you're not
Speaker 1: getting the pass rush on a four man run, go
Speaker 1: to the three man line. Linebackers, bring safeties, do all
Speaker 1: those different things that you can do in that three
Speaker 1: man scheme. Because the three man scheme you got, you
Speaker 1: got two outside linebackers gonna blitch, you canna plit, you
Speaker 1: two inside linebackers, and then you add the corners and
Speaker 1: the safeties in there, and it gives you a lot
Speaker 1: more flexibility, more so than if you just line up
Speaker 1: with a four man scheme, and and you gotta way
Speaker 1: to go at it. Those defensive ends have to win
Speaker 1: each and every each and every down I think is
Speaker 1: up on on both sides of the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 1: I think if you look at this football team, you know,
Speaker 1: the quarterback situation is gonna shake itself out. Somebody's gonna
Speaker 1: win that spot, and they may win it for four
Speaker 1: or five, six weeks and or maybe you know, a
Speaker 1: lightbulb go off and the other guys it's his time.
Speaker 1: But I do believe that on offensive line, we talked
Speaker 1: about the names, and we talked about the different guys
Speaker 1: maybe manning those positions. Boy it really I think it
Speaker 1: doubles down on the defensive side because even though you've
Speaker 1: got some talent up front, you don't know how that
Speaker 1: talent is gonna work out when you mix in a
Speaker 1: three or four or four three, how those guys are
Speaker 1: gonna fit in. Who's gonna be your run stopper, who's
Speaker 1: gonna be your edge guys, who's gonna help out in
Speaker 1: terms of being able to add linebacker phil and and
Speaker 1: make plays at and around the line of scrimmage is
Speaker 1: that of six yards five yards down the field. I
Speaker 1: think that line of scrimmage is gonna be critical for
Speaker 1: the Miami Dolphins and the progression on both sides of
Speaker 1: the football. You have no, no doubt about it. So
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be you know, think things are
Speaker 1: gonna be interesting around here. And you know it's funny
Speaker 1: be because I you know, I'm I'm a probably I'm
Speaker 1: pretty much of an eternal optimist when it comes to
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, and I tend to get aggravated when I
Speaker 1: hear people that that talk about this football team when
Speaker 1: they're not around this football team, you know, and and
Speaker 1: I understand the national guys you take cand be here
Speaker 1: every day. But to have a writer from you know,
Speaker 1: from l A writing about how bad this football team is,
Speaker 1: I I don't give. I don't put a lot of
Speaker 1: stock into that. And and it's funny because I got
Speaker 1: the feeling I think this team as a whole, as
Speaker 1: you look through the players and as we're starting to
Speaker 1: really get a feel now for the organizational side of
Speaker 1: of where this team has gone gone. You know, it's
Speaker 1: you know, my Tan tannem bombs not here anymore. Uh,
Speaker 1: You've you've got some of the some of the people
Speaker 1: that were here that we're in in different positions from
Speaker 1: like uh, metrics and and and and nutrition and this
Speaker 1: and that where to Quite frankly, it's a lot of bullshit.
Speaker 1: You know, it's just it's you know, I got this
Speaker 1: is gonna well. You know, you've been doing this now
Speaker 1: for four or five years, ending a damn thing to
Speaker 1: your football team. You have one more football game. I
Speaker 1: never saw it again with g You know, we won
Speaker 1: that game because because the milkshakes we game after at halftime.
Speaker 1: You know, I think this team is kind of cut
Speaker 1: back the fat off of that and I'm not saying
Speaker 1: that that has no meaning to me, but kind of
Speaker 1: cut that fat in. They're back to the basics. Now
Speaker 1: everything has its importance, but the level of importance in
Speaker 1: the credence. We were leaning on some of the metrics
Speaker 1: and some of that stuff comes back down to being smart, tough, physical,
Speaker 1: and disciplined. I mean you don't get that in the
Speaker 1: training room. I mean, if you hurt, you go in there,
Speaker 1: you get treatment, you come back out. Can you play
Speaker 1: or not? Can you play at a high level? And
Speaker 1: I don't know if the injuries in terms of a
Speaker 1: C l s and turn of sprains, you know, a
Speaker 1: C joints. I don't know if they went up or
Speaker 1: down or where that was. All I know is people
Speaker 1: are concerned are you six and ten? Are you ten
Speaker 1: and six? And how you get there? You can get
Speaker 1: there in a lot of different ways, but it comes
Speaker 1: down to making plays at critical times. And it comes
Speaker 1: down to a mentality that I think this staff is
Speaker 1: really honed in on is that we're here to coach you.
Speaker 1: You're there to play football to execute. How well can
Speaker 1: we get that done? How how can we come together
Speaker 1: and make that a marriage In terms of being success
Speaker 1: in wins and losses, staying away from the losses and
Speaker 1: stacking up more wins. And I think that goes back
Speaker 1: to what Brian Flores says, we're taking today is the
Speaker 1: most important thing we can do. I'm focused on today.
Speaker 1: Do we have some bumps and bruises after day two
Speaker 1: or three of training camp? Sure going to get treatment?
Speaker 1: Are you available or not? Next guy has to be up.
Speaker 1: So I think that this staff, from top to bottom,
Speaker 1: whether you're talking about management, training room, weightlifting, training, all
Speaker 1: that stuff, they are focused in on getting guys available
Speaker 1: and if you're available, coaches to have is is honed
Speaker 1: in on mistakes, just sibling, being smart, doing all the
Speaker 1: things it takes to add up to victories for the
Speaker 1: Miami don't and and it's and and look at it
Speaker 1: takes some toughness to you talk about injuries. You know,
Speaker 1: you're every everybody you know. I was talking to somebody
Speaker 1: when I was driving to training camp. They're He's like,
Speaker 1: you know, I hope people don't see people gonna get hurt.
Speaker 1: Guys are gonna get hurt. But I think this staff
Speaker 1: is a staff that's kind of more on the side
Speaker 1: of a little bit more of an old school staff.
Speaker 1: It says, look, I know you're hurt. I want to
Speaker 1: see if you can play hurt. I'm not asking you
Speaker 1: to go in and do something you can't physically do.
Speaker 1: But along the lines of Albert Wilson, he's not he's
Speaker 1: not gonna do team drills. He's not gonna do certain things.
Speaker 1: You're not gonna do seven on seven right now, but
Speaker 1: you're gonna dress, You're gonna go through individual drills. Then
Speaker 1: you're gonna go do the stuff that you need to do.
Speaker 1: But you're gonna do certain things here where in the past.
Speaker 1: You know, I've looked over and you see five guys
Speaker 1: sitting there on a on a stationary for a week,
Speaker 1: for a week, just doing nothing. And you're going, I'm
Speaker 1: going with, what what the hell good does that do
Speaker 1: these guys? And because you you, you know, I think
Speaker 1: it's a coach you you want to know, is this
Speaker 1: a guy that in week thirteen when he sprained his
Speaker 1: ankle last week on the road against the road against
Speaker 1: somebody we need to win. Is he gonna be able
Speaker 1: to line up and give me his best even though
Speaker 1: he's heard he's gonna be able to give me? Or
Speaker 1: is he gonna be standing on the sideline next to me,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, unavailable, and and you know, and I
Speaker 1: think I think really in the past, I think there's
Speaker 1: been a little too much of that, too much of that, Oh,
Speaker 1: you're hurt, go ahead and get healthy and when you're healthy,
Speaker 1: or you're gonna be hit to your percent healthy in
Speaker 1: this league, you're never gonna play off season, you know,
Speaker 1: not even during the off season. You're you know, you know,
Speaker 1: I always said, you know it. It took me three
Speaker 1: years out of football to realize what it is not
Speaker 1: to hurt, you know, because that's part but but I
Speaker 1: think it's also part of it with this staff to
Speaker 1: find out who were the tough guys. Who are the
Speaker 1: guys that can fight through pain? Were the fights guys
Speaker 1: that we can count on If a guy's got a
Speaker 1: guy's got an injury and we need to have him play, Look,
Speaker 1: we're gonna We're not gonna put him in a situation
Speaker 1: where he's gonna hurt himself more. But got injury, you know,
Speaker 1: can you function You're not gonna function at a percent,
Speaker 1: but can you function at eighty? Can you give me
Speaker 1: eighty because you can give me eight. You're gonna better
Speaker 1: than that guy that's behind you. That probably be the
Speaker 1: equivalent of getting sixty from That's why you're starting, that's
Speaker 1: why you're playing. You're getting so many reps, and I
Speaker 1: think that there there is a lot of credence to
Speaker 1: that in terms of being able to be available number one.
Speaker 1: And I think there's a lot of things that this
Speaker 1: coaching staff is still learning about this football team, about
Speaker 1: individual players, and I think that they like what they
Speaker 1: see just listening to coach Flores talk about his team,
Speaker 1: just listening, you know, and and spending time with the
Speaker 1: coaching staff, spending time with the scouts, spending time, you know,
Speaker 1: just watching them work. They're working. I mean, this is
Speaker 1: a team that is gone. They know they have to
Speaker 1: go out and earn everything they get because this is
Speaker 1: a team that has it's in a prove it mode
Speaker 1: even though it's year one for Brian Flores, and this
Speaker 1: coaching is to happen. The schemes and all three phases.
Speaker 1: They are going to go and try to outwork you,
Speaker 1: They're gonna try to out execute you, and they're not
Speaker 1: going to beat themselves. That's if this team can do
Speaker 1: those three things, they're gonna be in every ball game. Well,
Speaker 1: hey there, and we've talked about this a lot during
Speaker 1: this offseason, and I agree with every this. You know,
Speaker 1: the the whole takes no talent, you know, and to me,
Speaker 1: those are that that that just means be a smart
Speaker 1: football team. Takes no talent to show up on time
Speaker 1: for a meeting, takes no talent to to to to
Speaker 1: hold the water and stay out sides. If you're an
Speaker 1: offensive tackle and you've got Von Miller breathing down your
Speaker 1: meck and you gotta hold, you gotta you gotta stand
Speaker 1: in there and be a man and not not jump
Speaker 1: off sides. All those things you know that that that
Speaker 1: this team can do that I think we're gonna make
Speaker 1: this team a team that can overcome whatever lack of
Speaker 1: talent that they have. And I'm not saying this team
Speaker 1: is an untalented football team, but they've gotten had a
Speaker 1: lot of good players, a lot of talented players that
Speaker 1: have done a lot of good things in this football team.
Speaker 1: And now they're relying on younger, less, less less experienced,
Speaker 1: less known guys. But if you can get those guys
Speaker 1: to be tough, if you can get those guys to
Speaker 1: be in condition, if you can get those guys to
Speaker 1: be smart, and if you can get them to pay
Speaker 1: attention to detail, you can you can take a team
Speaker 1: that's not as talented as some other teams. And granted,
Speaker 1: when I say not as talented, i'm talking slim. I'm
Speaker 1: not talking about this team, just so overpenning the talent. Look,
Speaker 1: the talent on the best team in the league, in
Speaker 1: the in the worst team in the league is very similar.
Speaker 1: It's what do you get out of the talent on
Speaker 1: that team? And I think that's what this coaching staff
Speaker 1: is more about, is let's let's let's get let's get
Speaker 1: what we can get out of this team that doesn't
Speaker 1: take talent, that just takes smarts and discipline and doing
Speaker 1: the right thing. Saw a great example of that today,
Speaker 1: Boa And it was really it was a defensive drill
Speaker 1: and it was a goal line situation where the tight ends,
Speaker 1: running backs, Uh, we're going up against linebackers, safeties, corners,
Speaker 1: and the defense totally bust. It was a big bust.
Speaker 1: It was an easy touchdown front pylon, six points, an
Speaker 1: easy pitch and catch, and coach Floores happened to be
Speaker 1: on the drill. He walked, he used to hold up.
Speaker 1: Hold up, let's rerack that. I want to see that again.
Speaker 1: And it didn't matter if the guy was the first
Speaker 1: time with the Dolphins and as a rookie, or it
Speaker 1: could have been a twelve year vet that he was
Speaker 1: talking to. Goes back out and says, what did you see?
Speaker 1: This is where? This is why we called this defense.
Speaker 1: This is why we want you in an outside leverage position.
Speaker 1: Why are your eyes looking there? You have one job
Speaker 1: on this play and he ran right in front of you,
Speaker 1: but your eyes took you to a different spot. I
Speaker 1: want you here. Ran it again? Easy. I mean, just
Speaker 1: going over the simplistic things about who your responsibility is
Speaker 1: gonna pay dividends, not only for the guy that maybe
Speaker 1: screwed it up, but the two guys are behind him
Speaker 1: that are watching that drill, you know, And it's not
Speaker 1: wasn't like, hey, we'll get it in the film room.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get it right now, We're gonna get it corrected. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and look that that's you know again again that that
Speaker 1: goes back to attention to detail, you know, I you
Speaker 1: know it's it's it was ingrained in me growing up,
Speaker 1: and it was grained in me certainly when I was
Speaker 1: with the Miami offense playing and and and really for
Speaker 1: the last a long time, there is has been missing
Speaker 1: I think from this team that that just that demand
Speaker 1: demanding you to do just that. I remember when, you know,
Speaker 1: when I first came in as a linebacker, I've never
Speaker 1: really covered anybody. And so you know, when when it's
Speaker 1: my job to cover somebody, I wanted to know two things,
Speaker 1: what technique do I have? Where do I have help?
Speaker 1: I have help on the inside. I'm gonna take my
Speaker 1: outside technique and I'm not gonna look at anybody else.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna look at that guy because that's the
Speaker 1: guy I've got to cover. And I'm gonna just and
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna pay attention to anything and and and
Speaker 1: and that's kind of how I learned to your job.
Speaker 1: And we've seen too much of you know, yeah, I
Speaker 1: know that's my guy, but you know I I thought
Speaker 1: I could do this, or I thought I could help
Speaker 1: that guy out. Let that guy help himself, right and
Speaker 1: then so you know, and I think that's kind of
Speaker 1: what's going through what they're going through right now, is
Speaker 1: that lesson those lessons that just and look, it goes
Speaker 1: back to Bill Belichick. Just do your job. Just do
Speaker 1: your job. Sounds like the most simple thing to to
Speaker 1: to say, but it's it's a hard thing to do
Speaker 1: for people who like I can remember being a situation
Speaker 1: where I got a guy in a situation I go,
Speaker 1: you know what if I jump inside to get that
Speaker 1: guy and and you know, and make up and get
Speaker 1: a little a little yass, a little loss on the plate.
Speaker 1: But I know if I do and this guy turns
Speaker 1: me and that guy bounces outside, that guy's gonna go
Speaker 1: for about thirty or forty yards on me. And I
Speaker 1: don't want to be that guy. So sometimes you gotta
Speaker 1: give up that that hero role to be the guy
Speaker 1: that's been in your place, playing team football and not
Speaker 1: letting the other guy that's next to you letting him down. Yeah,
Speaker 1: those ten have that same mentality. Then you know you're
Speaker 1: gonna at least be in the right spot. It's not
Speaker 1: gonna turn into one of those explosive plays as you mentioned.
Speaker 1: You know. So I think that that's a big, big
Speaker 1: focus for this football team. And it doesn't matter if
Speaker 1: you're a defensive tackle, your wide receiver, you're a tight end. Uh,
Speaker 1: guys have to just do what's on their plate, you know,
Speaker 1: on that specific play. Then you react and you and
Speaker 1: you go about your business. And I think that will
Speaker 1: pay dividends. And I think we'll see how this team
Speaker 1: grows in terms of maturity as training camp moves along,
Speaker 1: and then you get to see another color jersey when
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Falcons come into hard Rock Stadium for the
Speaker 1: first preseason game. Then you go on the road to
Speaker 1: Tampa and see how this team grows in terms of
Speaker 1: responsibility and attention to detail and discipline and all those
Speaker 1: things that add up to having a football team. You
Speaker 1: feel like, hey, I can I can take the field
Speaker 1: any Sunday with a chance to win. You know, one
Speaker 1: of the guys I was looking at out there today
Speaker 1: was Charles Harris. Charles is a big He's a big
Speaker 1: lynch pin on this team right now. You know, first
Speaker 1: round raft pick uh really hasn't done you know, what
Speaker 1: he expected, I'm sure and certainly what the team has
Speaker 1: expected from him. And and the thing I noticed with it,
Speaker 1: you know, they they had him running through drills with
Speaker 1: the dbs and the linebackers um doing a little work
Speaker 1: with the d line. But but it kind of leads
Speaker 1: me to believe they're they're getting ready for him and
Speaker 1: that stand up guy that in that three four scheme
Speaker 1: outstand up outside linebacker, maybe give him a little opportunity
Speaker 1: to cover a little bit, but more so be a
Speaker 1: stand up guy outside in a three man front to
Speaker 1: where he can put some pressure on and doesn't have
Speaker 1: his hand in the dirt and can do multiple things
Speaker 1: out there. So so I think he's one of the
Speaker 1: guys that I think, to me, I'm looking at which
Speaker 1: which which could really be a could really take this
Speaker 1: defensive team and move him to a different level if
Speaker 1: he could get to the level of play where everyone
Speaker 1: would like him to be, including himself, at that spot
Speaker 1: where he can either put his hand in the dirt
Speaker 1: in the four man line or stand up on a
Speaker 1: three man line and either rush or come out and
Speaker 1: give you a little help in a coverage stampede, you
Speaker 1: know both. I was looking at the same thing in
Speaker 1: terms of, hey, who's lining up where right? So you
Speaker 1: look at you look at him, and you're kind of saying, well,
Speaker 1: what is he gonna be? What is what is Charles
Speaker 1: Harris gonna turn out to be? In the two thousand
Speaker 1: nineteen version of the Miami Dolphins, and had led me
Speaker 1: to look at Jonathan Woodard. You know, I looked at
Speaker 1: one side of the football and kind of seeing the
Speaker 1: same things you're seeing. And I'm going, well, who's gonna
Speaker 1: be the guy that's gonna put his hand down when
Speaker 1: they're asked to go to a four or three? And
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, boy, if this guy can make a leap
Speaker 1: or or just show you some confidence that he can
Speaker 1: hold down you know, that edge of the defense, that
Speaker 1: he can be a guy that can be sturdy against
Speaker 1: the run and be able to force, you know, set
Speaker 1: the edge and let somebody else make a play. It
Speaker 1: doesn't have to be him, you know, guys like that
Speaker 1: are gonna have to emerge on this defense. If if
Speaker 1: Charles Harris is gonna be asked to do multiple things,
Speaker 1: then somebody else is gonna have to kind of step
Speaker 1: up and and do the things that we're we're given,
Speaker 1: we're taken for granted, like Innate Orchard or or a
Speaker 1: guy like you know, somebody like that, or DALs Washington
Speaker 1: with a big guy that has some highs and lows.
Speaker 1: You know, how are those guys gonna emerge and be
Speaker 1: able to be playmakers on a defense that are looking
Speaker 1: for stars. I'm with you on you know what. Jonathan
Speaker 1: Wodard to me has been a guy that I've liked
Speaker 1: when he's had the opportunity to play. He's a big,
Speaker 1: tall guy, but he's he's thick enough. He can stand
Speaker 1: in there. He can he can to gap somebody if
Speaker 1: he needs to. He can give you some pass rush um,
Speaker 1: you know. And I think he's one of those guys.
Speaker 1: The more he plays, the more you see how good
Speaker 1: he is, and so you know he's one of those guys,
Speaker 1: and he's gonna have to be one of those guys
Speaker 1: that it really becomes a bit of a stalwart for
Speaker 1: you on that defensive front, especially if, like you said,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't I don't see I don't see
Speaker 1: Charles Harris lining up in a in a in a
Speaker 1: in a eye to eye with an offensive tackle and
Speaker 1: try to to gap him in the course of a
Speaker 1: game in running situations. Jonathan Woodard, I could see him
Speaker 1: doing him. I mean, he's got the size, he's got
Speaker 1: the strength, he's got the ability to do that. So
Speaker 1: he could be that guy and he his hands on
Speaker 1: the tackles and kind of get some leverage and help
Speaker 1: the guy beside him. You know, it opens that picture
Speaker 1: up a little bit easier for that defensive tackle or
Speaker 1: that weak side linebacker or the middle linebacker to be
Speaker 1: able to see lane and be able to kind of
Speaker 1: go through that progression of Yeah, that fits. That fits
Speaker 1: for me perfectly now because he did his job. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's it's gonna be interesting on that defensive front, just
Speaker 1: where where they're gonna get that that that pass rush
Speaker 1: from and and and again. And you know, the the
Speaker 1: guy I think, I'm I'm I'm I'm I'm kind of
Speaker 1: dying to see Christian Wilkins in in pads a little
Speaker 1: bit and and see what he does when he gets
Speaker 1: in there, because there's an active guy, a big guy,
Speaker 1: and you know, it's it's always gonn. I remember my
Speaker 1: first practice as a rookie, and you almost want to
Speaker 1: jump out of your skin. You were so anxious to
Speaker 1: do something and and show somebody what you can do
Speaker 1: and everything. And I can imagine when he puts on pads,
Speaker 1: we're gonna see, Uh, we're gonna we're gonna see a
Speaker 1: little bit of a lightning bolt, uh come through there
Speaker 1: with with Christian Wilkins, He'll be exciting. I mean This
Speaker 1: is a guy. He was picked thirteenth overall for a reason.
Speaker 1: You know, he he was so explosive as a as
Speaker 1: a Clemson player and won every award team captain. Makes
Speaker 1: plays around the line of scrimmage, behind the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 1: I think if you get a consistent pass rush from him,
Speaker 1: that's gonna just add to what he can do as
Speaker 1: a football player in his rookie year. But I think
Speaker 1: his main focus is being able to be sturdy. I
Speaker 1: think at the line of scrimmage, being able to hold
Speaker 1: his ground and be able to get penetration and be
Speaker 1: able to use that quickness and speed he has with
Speaker 1: his feet, matching his hands and being able to do
Speaker 1: things that we haven't seen done in a while. You know,
Speaker 1: up front, to be a guy that is gonna probably
Speaker 1: you know, we have expectations for him, but he almost exceeded.
Speaker 1: It's kind of unfair in in a rookie year, but
Speaker 1: that's why he was drafted, That's why he was, you know,
Speaker 1: a member, That's why he is a member of the
Speaker 1: Minami Dolphins. And up front, he has to be a
Speaker 1: difference maker. John. When you you look at the roster
Speaker 1: and you look at starting lineup? Who you who you
Speaker 1: projected these starting lineups? What what what's the one position
Speaker 1: on each side of the ball that did you feel
Speaker 1: needs to be bolstered with somebody better than it was
Speaker 1: there before last year? Well, on defense, I'll start. I
Speaker 1: think the given is upfront at the defensive end. You know,
Speaker 1: you lose a guy like Cam Wake, you lose Andre Branch,
Speaker 1: you know, you lose uh, Robert Quinn, you know guy
Speaker 1: William Hayes. You had, you took for granted that those
Speaker 1: guys were just gonna get the job done, and now
Speaker 1: you kind of go down the list and they're unknown
Speaker 1: names with with maybe some question marks around there. So
Speaker 1: I would say, you know, guys that we mentioned in
Speaker 1: Charles Harris, I think that's a big question mark. What
Speaker 1: is he going to be able to do? You know,
Speaker 1: is Tank guaranty and gonna be a guy that that
Speaker 1: can you know, raise his level of expectation? Or do
Speaker 1: you have a new guy you know is it is
Speaker 1: it Dwayne Hendrix or Jonathan Woodard you mentioned you know,
Speaker 1: you've seen a lot of good things out of him.
Speaker 1: So I think that position right there, and if I
Speaker 1: added one on defense, if this team is going to
Speaker 1: be six defensive backs in certain times, who's gonna be
Speaker 1: that stalwart at nickel or dime? The guys on the inside,
Speaker 1: you know, are are they kicking guys from the secondary
Speaker 1: that we're maybe playing corner now they're playing safety. Who's
Speaker 1: gonna be the guy on the inside, Because you know,
Speaker 1: you mentioned a team that is strong in the back end,
Speaker 1: and for me, you know, makea Fitzpatrick and Rashaan Jones
Speaker 1: and t J McDonald once he gets back off on
Speaker 1: the field and a member of the Miami Dolphins. You
Speaker 1: have some guys that you feel very confident in. But
Speaker 1: who's gonna be the extra guys that Jamal Wilts that
Speaker 1: that's gonna be on the inside. Is it gonna be
Speaker 1: a younger guy like Cornell Armstrong, it's gonna come from
Speaker 1: nowhere and guys, hey, we can depend on him. I
Speaker 1: think on defense those are the two positions. I'm not
Speaker 1: so much worried about linebacker because I think the guys
Speaker 1: we have they're gonna be you know, you're gonna do
Speaker 1: the job. They've got experience, they've got confidence, they can
Speaker 1: do multiple things and play multiple positions. I think it's
Speaker 1: gonna be the edge to the defense, and it's gonna
Speaker 1: be that extra guy. Because if I'm the opposing quarterback
Speaker 1: and I see Mincan, I see X, and I see Rashad,
Speaker 1: and I see t J, Who's the next guy I
Speaker 1: want to go at. Maybe maybe it's the next guy
Speaker 1: I want to kind of earn my salary. And and
Speaker 1: that takes me to the guy that I'm looking at.
Speaker 1: Who's gonna be that corner opposite X. Who's that Who's
Speaker 1: gonna be that guy who's gonna man that corner and
Speaker 1: lock it down. I don't know Tank is uh is
Speaker 1: on the unable to perform right now. But I got
Speaker 1: a lot of good guys out there, David Rivers, Cornell Armstrong,
Speaker 1: Tory mctire, Eric Roe. You know which guy is gonna
Speaker 1: be that guy is gonna step up and and take
Speaker 1: that other cornerback spot. Because I I, you know, I
Speaker 1: think there's there's been enough guys who have played multiple
Speaker 1: positions inside, from Bobby McCain and all those guys to
Speaker 1: Minca and and you know and Rashad and all those
Speaker 1: guys t J that that have played inside. I'm more
Speaker 1: concerned with that cornerback opposite X. Also concerned with the
Speaker 1: wide receiver spot because I don't think there's no we
Speaker 1: don't have enough speed. And saw one guy that they
Speaker 1: had plenty of speed. Yeah, I saw one guy out
Speaker 1: there had plenty of speed. Jachim, you were going pretty
Speaker 1: good out there today, man, Sir Keem Grant joining us here,
Speaker 1: and uh, Jachima looked like it looked like a practice,
Speaker 1: looked like you were anxious to be out there, and
Speaker 1: it looked like you were having fun. A long time coming. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: s that's October. Man, I couldn't wait to get back
Speaker 1: out there and just be full go and so and
Speaker 1: now it's just maximizing the opportunity. And then that time
Speaker 1: I missed how much you know, how much how tough
Speaker 1: was it and how much did you have to go
Speaker 1: through from October to the day you last played the
Speaker 1: game to right now where you're you're back at it,
Speaker 1: and and I know it takes getting in there now
Speaker 1: to know that you're you're ready to go and you've
Speaker 1: got all that other ship is behind me. Yeah, man,
Speaker 1: it's it took a long time. Man. Just Um Kyle
Speaker 1: used to tell me all the time, He's like, uh,
Speaker 1: don't focus on that one three focused on force and
Speaker 1: because I thought that it's my win, my first injury,
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I'm never gonna be back at
Speaker 1: this point, I'm never. I don't know if I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be back to what I was, man, because like, I've
Speaker 1: never been injured, so this injury thing is just something
Speaker 1: new to me. And so I just kept pushing and
Speaker 1: pushing and then a little about little. The coaches kept
Speaker 1: throwing me out there and throwing me out there, and
Speaker 1: I kept and my achilles and it just kept getting
Speaker 1: stronger and stronger. And so now it's like now we're
Speaker 1: ready to roll now. And so man, it's just been
Speaker 1: a long time coming and I'm just excited to be
Speaker 1: back out there. You know, it's I look at you,
Speaker 1: and you know, the one thing that sticks out to me, Jack,
Speaker 1: when I watch out of practice. Always the first guy
Speaker 1: in the front of the line, the front of the line,
Speaker 1: always the first guy in the drill, always the first
Speaker 1: guy to do it. And that that to me is
Speaker 1: you know, those are the guys I look for and
Speaker 1: I think special things about, Yes, sir, yes, sir um.
Speaker 1: I just try to leave by example. Uh I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm not a little motel of those like a very
Speaker 1: vocal guy. But um, I just try to leave by
Speaker 1: my actions and try to go up there and show
Speaker 1: them just you know, uh, go full speed because it's
Speaker 1: just like a game and you're not gonna go have
Speaker 1: speed whenever you're in the game. So I try to
Speaker 1: maximize and go full speed and just teach those young
Speaker 1: guys that's watching me and sign uh man, if you
Speaker 1: came going full speed and I have to go full
Speaker 1: speed too, and so and that's exactly the type of
Speaker 1: message I want to put out. Well, the one thing
Speaker 1: about your team that I always see bod he's always
Speaker 1: gotta smile on his face. He's always going and what
Speaker 1: what today? First day out training camp. I know it
Speaker 1: had to be kind of gratifying for you, just all
Speaker 1: this stuff you went through to kind of go through
Speaker 1: and say, you know what, my mind's right, my body's right,
Speaker 1: and I can I cannot worry about anything, just go
Speaker 1: play football. Had to be kind of liberating, I would
Speaker 1: think for you today. Yeah, it's it's actually very satisfying
Speaker 1: just to be back out there with my boys and
Speaker 1: and just to have fun. You know. Um, I'll tell
Speaker 1: you it was just a big mentally, just like I said, Um,
Speaker 1: just getting over just the whole injury thing and just
Speaker 1: being able to trust my achilles and and and that
Speaker 1: that took a big part because it was some things
Speaker 1: that I knew that I could do inside of my head,
Speaker 1: but like getting out there on the field, it's like
Speaker 1: I'm still like second guessing and saying and thinking about, oh,
Speaker 1: it's just strong enough to hold up on this cut
Speaker 1: or this and that. And so it just took a
Speaker 1: lot of trust and and a lot of you know,
Speaker 1: support from teammates, you know, coach of staff and trying
Speaker 1: to just to say you came, the strength is there.
Speaker 1: You just gotta go out there and just build that
Speaker 1: confidence back in it and and trusted and so um
Speaker 1: with that with with my teammates, you know, Kenny, Albert
Speaker 1: Navante and them just saying you came, You're right there,
Speaker 1: so you have all of the strength and speed, just
Speaker 1: trusted like you got it. And so with them doing that,
Speaker 1: I'll just go out there and each and every day
Speaker 1: and just trusted a little bit more. And so now
Speaker 1: we're back in the training camp and I'm not even
Speaker 1: thinking about it right. And you know the other thing
Speaker 1: I noticed today too about Ji Kim and I know
Speaker 1: you're not like allowed guy and you're not a guy
Speaker 1: that's gonna be you know, always talking and everything, but
Speaker 1: you lead by example. And one of the things that
Speaker 1: struck me today about you, you know, you ran a
Speaker 1: great fade route. You catch the ball on the end zone,
Speaker 1: and there's another play where DeVante is running across in
Speaker 1: the back of the end zone, kind of got tangled up.
Speaker 1: He's down on the ground, you're in the route. You
Speaker 1: kind of go pick him up, bringing back talk with
Speaker 1: him on the way back to the huddle. Those are
Speaker 1: the types of things I think that bond and bring
Speaker 1: people together and bring teams together. And I wanted to
Speaker 1: commend you on that because a lot of times, you know,
Speaker 1: you're always looking for the sound bite, you're not looking
Speaker 1: for the quiet leader, the guy doing things you know
Speaker 1: when guys aren't looking. Those are the types of things
Speaker 1: I think that you bring to this football team. And
Speaker 1: I think that can get contagious on this team, just
Speaker 1: with the mentality the guys you have in that receiving room.
Speaker 1: And I'm with that. Man said, um, I'll take like
Speaker 1: a military approach, which is like the guys in the military,
Speaker 1: like I'll die for you out there. And so that's
Speaker 1: my whole thing, is like I go out there and
Speaker 1: get my altar for Kenny Devantey fits, you know, any
Speaker 1: one of my teammates, and and that's just been my
Speaker 1: mindset and and a lot of coaches and a lot
Speaker 1: of every body know that. Like I was playing last year,
Speaker 1: it just hurt. You know, I didn't care, And so
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give my all. It doesn't matter, like I
Speaker 1: die out there for you, like y'all mean to y'all,
Speaker 1: y'all mean a lot to me, your family and so
Speaker 1: and when I see Davante got tangled up and stuff
Speaker 1: like that, I quickly ran over there with no hesitation.
Speaker 1: It's just to check on him and see if you're
Speaker 1: all right, because that's my brother out there, and you know,
Speaker 1: if you know, it's it's like we need him out there,
Speaker 1: We need him as every Yeah, and then I just
Speaker 1: look at us like a chain link. You know, if
Speaker 1: one if one part of the chain is damaged, then
Speaker 1: we're all damaged as a as a unit. And so um,
Speaker 1: if he's healthy, we're gonna be great. And so that's
Speaker 1: why I ran over there and checked on him and
Speaker 1: make sure he was all right, it's a training camp
Speaker 1: is always a new start to a new year. You
Speaker 1: got a new coach and Brian Flores, Well, what what
Speaker 1: message did he delivered to you guys on the eve
Speaker 1: of uh of training camp opening it up? Um? You know,
Speaker 1: he always pushing that message of being the most conditioned
Speaker 1: team in the NFL. UM, but he also want us
Speaker 1: to be go out there and be smart and and
Speaker 1: discipline and we have to do um, you know, the
Speaker 1: basic things extraordinary and and that's the message he's trying
Speaker 1: to push because everybody in this lead has talent and
Speaker 1: if we can do the fundamentals and get those things right,
Speaker 1: and that's what's gonna separate us in the fourth quarters
Speaker 1: where everybody's getting tired and and we're sticking to the
Speaker 1: fundamentals and where and and it's it's like second nature
Speaker 1: to us. And it's it's there's no no deads on,
Speaker 1: no dead spot and we're just you know, hitting every
Speaker 1: fundamentals and doing everything whenever, even when we're tired and
Speaker 1: so um, and that's what he said. That's what I
Speaker 1: think the message he's pushing is just being able to
Speaker 1: you know, be smart and operate whenever you're tired, and
Speaker 1: and what the conditioning the part is. And that's a
Speaker 1: big part of the game because you know this the
Speaker 1: football is not hard. You know, you're taking blows, you
Speaker 1: getting hit, um, running deep routes after deep routes, and
Speaker 1: you know, even playing down here it's hot. You know
Speaker 1: it's hot. So um, you know, just spend He he
Speaker 1: wants the he has that T and T. While the
Speaker 1: thing is that said takes it takes no talent and
Speaker 1: so and I think that's that's a great message to
Speaker 1: push because if we can do things that that extraordinary
Speaker 1: that takes no talent, I mean, we'll be a great team.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you the one thing that that was evidently clear,
Speaker 1: clearly clear to me as soon as practice began. It's
Speaker 1: an up tempo, it's a high energy practice. I mean
Speaker 1: just just going through your your calisthenics, just stretching what
Speaker 1: I saw more, there was more activity, there, there was
Speaker 1: more emphasis on it. So I just say, you stretch
Speaker 1: out and we'll go do this, and and you go
Speaker 1: right from that into igh speed drills, you know fast
Speaker 1: you know, conditioning, hard work, and and so right off
Speaker 1: the bat, this was not like we'll ease into this practice.
Speaker 1: You guys came out of the shooting you were you
Speaker 1: were at full speed from the get go exactly. And
Speaker 1: and that's just like, um, the first start of the game,
Speaker 1: you know, just uh, jumping out and getting on fire
Speaker 1: at the first beginning and just keeping keeping your foot
Speaker 1: on their neck and just being able to just have
Speaker 1: that killer mentalent and just not letting up on anybody.
Speaker 1: And I think that's what he's He's pushing without without
Speaker 1: even have to say say that. And I feel like, uh,
Speaker 1: that's that's a great message to push because everybody's going
Speaker 1: out there, we're all locked in, we're all focused, and
Speaker 1: we're no, as soon as he blow that hard, now
Speaker 1: it's time to go. There's no we're gonna ease into it.
Speaker 1: And it was like, no, we ain't trying to count
Speaker 1: for us here, um and we're creeping up on week one. Hey, lastly,
Speaker 1: I know you gotta go, you got meetings and stuff,
Speaker 1: But I just wanted to say what was it like
Speaker 1: or ask you what was like to have Albert back
Speaker 1: out there and and have him close to a hundred.
Speaker 1: I know he might you know, be easing into stuff,
Speaker 1: but it's great to have him out there and be
Speaker 1: part of the individuals and just see both you guys,
Speaker 1: because you know you're both absent last year for some
Speaker 1: of the season. Now you're kind of both back. What
Speaker 1: does it feel like to have him back out there? Man,
Speaker 1: it was great to have the the part of my
Speaker 1: high five back and so man, it was just it
Speaker 1: was just very satisfying to see him out there, and
Speaker 1: it was just satisfying for him. You know. I was
Speaker 1: just when he came over there to watch us a team,
Speaker 1: you know, I was just asking him how he was
Speaker 1: feeling today. He was like, Man, I feel good, you know. Um,
Speaker 1: just you know, taking baby steps. And I was like, man,
Speaker 1: just you take your time, don't rush into it. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, we love to have y'all here, but don't
Speaker 1: don't rush it because if you're not, then I don't
Speaker 1: want you to have a setback. But also, man, it
Speaker 1: was just, you know, I'm more think about like how
Speaker 1: he feels, because you know, I know it's it's mentally,
Speaker 1: it's like it's hard to watch, especially like when you're
Speaker 1: a competitor and you want to go out there and
Speaker 1: compete and so um, but man, he felt great, you know,
Speaker 1: just and my man got some big thighs. Yeah, definitely. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know I saw the only the only guy that
Speaker 1: ever impressed me with thives was Earl Campbell. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: was just looking at girls that human can't have fights
Speaker 1: that then. Man, yeah, as a receiver, I told me
Speaker 1: running back thighs. But man, it's like I said, Man,
Speaker 1: it was great to have him out there and just
Speaker 1: have him, you know, take he's had else and have
Speaker 1: him to be a part of the offense and let
Speaker 1: him know that he's a part of this team and
Speaker 1: he's still a part of him and we can't we
Speaker 1: can't wait to have him back. But look, it was
Speaker 1: great to have you out of practice and then back
Speaker 1: to dent and great stuff. Forward the good stuff and
Speaker 1: uh it's training camp. Football's back. It couldn't be, couldn't
Speaker 1: be better time a year than news right now and
Speaker 1: look forward to big things out he thanks for something
Speaker 1: by pleasure. Have a good one man, Stay healthy out there, buddy.
Speaker 1: Um you have good stuff, good stuff there and and
Speaker 1: and you know it's it's you know what's funny is
Speaker 1: you you watch a guy and I talked to talk
Speaker 1: about watching to Kim and watching him go to the
Speaker 1: front of line and everything and you know that that
Speaker 1: that's not something that just happens. It's you. You get
Speaker 1: a mindset, you say, look, I'm gonna be this, this
Speaker 1: is who I'm gonna be this year. I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: the guy in the front of the line every single drill.
Speaker 1: And if there's someone in front of me, well, he
Speaker 1: said it perfectly. He's gonna lead by example, and he
Speaker 1: does it. And you know, this is a guy that
Speaker 1: has come leaps and bounds from three or four years
Speaker 1: ago from where he was to where he is now.
Speaker 1: It's just incredible. And now he's he's a dependable, speedy
Speaker 1: wide receiver that gives you that explosiveness on special teams
Speaker 1: and that can turn of four yard catch into a
Speaker 1: forty yard touchdown and a flash and we've seen it
Speaker 1: happen for the Miami Dolphins. And and he's a guy
Speaker 1: that that needs to keep raising that bar and he's
Speaker 1: doing it at practice and he's he like you said,
Speaker 1: he's starting the drills out every individual drill, every's he's
Speaker 1: the first guy in and he's showing it, showing the
Speaker 1: other guys how it should be done. And I'll tell he's, uh,
Speaker 1: he's a different guy out there and you know it's
Speaker 1: it's funny guys talking to him. And I don't know
Speaker 1: if we may have been on this show or man
Speaker 1: someone else. I was talking to him and I was
Speaker 1: asking him about about coach Flores and his impact, uh
Speaker 1: and what how coach Flores is helping him? And he said,
Speaker 1: you know, he said, I was catching punts and he said,
Speaker 1: and I punt came down. He said, I caught it,
Speaker 1: bobbled a little bit, tuck it away. And when he says,
Speaker 1: coach Flores comes over and says that that wasn't catch
Speaker 1: and and Jachine goes, what do you mean I caught
Speaker 1: the ball? Because no, no, you babbled it. He says,
Speaker 1: I don't consider a babble ball a catch. He's because
Speaker 1: someone could get their hand in there, someone could knock
Speaker 1: it out, you could drop it, and and and and jachinoes,
Speaker 1: but coach I caught He goes, no, you didn't. You bobbled.
Speaker 1: But but but it tells you, tells you about the
Speaker 1: the we talk about detail. You know, we don't even
Speaker 1: we don't we don't only see it, but you know
Speaker 1: what a guy like this, but colde, I catch the ball.
Speaker 1: No you didn't I don't consider a babble a catch,
Speaker 1: and and so Jachinebo's I said, what what did you say?
Speaker 1: After he goes, well, I gotta learn to catch catch.
Speaker 1: But that's you know, but you know that that's you know, hey,
Speaker 1: those are the little things that I think coach flooras
Speaker 1: in this coaching staff every day are gonna harp on them.
Speaker 1: It's it's the littlest things that if you add them
Speaker 1: all up, that end up beating you in a football game.
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's the bobble that is not a
Speaker 1: catch on third down. Now the defense has to go
Speaker 1: back out and you you don't blows out a game,
Speaker 1: or it's you know, it's a it's the catch that
Speaker 1: could have been a touchdown that was bobbled. Now you're
Speaker 1: kicking a field going you miss it and you lose points.
Speaker 1: It's it's all those little things. I think that that's
Speaker 1: why the focus of this team is the littlest thing
Speaker 1: is discipline. It's physical, it's tough, it's smart, it's it's
Speaker 1: the intangibles that other guys take for granted. This team
Speaker 1: cannot take for granted. And they got a couple of
Speaker 1: a couple of things coming up Uh, in the next
Speaker 1: two weeks that are really gonna be uh important to
Speaker 1: watching this football team. Uh. Next week Saturday, they'll have
Speaker 1: an inter squad scrimmage at hard Rock Stadium and that's
Speaker 1: open to the public. Uh what time I should know it,
Speaker 1: But I'll see if I can find it right here.
Speaker 1: I think it's one pm BO Saturday, Sunday Saturday, that's
Speaker 1: the Yeah, one pm. I should have just gone to
Speaker 1: you the Book of Knowledge to August first. So so
Speaker 1: they have their scrimmage, which which is always you know,
Speaker 1: it kind of gives you a chance to To me,
Speaker 1: the scrimmage, John is always a chance to maybe kind
Speaker 1: of look at line up a little bit, see who's
Speaker 1: getting he was getting the reps with the first team,
Speaker 1: See who's maybe moving in and out with the first team,
Speaker 1: both on both sides of the ball. So I look
Speaker 1: at that. And then probably more important to me is
Speaker 1: going to be a couple of weeks later when they
Speaker 1: go up to Tampa practice second preseason game and and
Speaker 1: get a chance to practice against the Bucks. I think
Speaker 1: they go up on a Monday, play on a Thursday,
Speaker 1: so get two practices in against that football team, And
Speaker 1: to me, that's always telling because you can watch your
Speaker 1: guys intensity level goes up. You're going against another team,
Speaker 1: they're running different things that maybe you haven't seen, different
Speaker 1: guys that you haven't seen over the last couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: And I think that's gonna go a long way into
Speaker 1: really getting a feel too if all this stuff is
Speaker 1: helping make this football team a more competitive or the
Speaker 1: type of competitive football team they want to be when
Speaker 1: opening day rolls around. Yeah, I think it's gonna be stages.
Speaker 1: You know, you're gonna have this opening stage of training
Speaker 1: camp to kind of get the feel about who fits in,
Speaker 1: where you know some of the new guys that you
Speaker 1: really don't know their names, who your favorites at certain positions,
Speaker 1: and where you think it's trending to who's gonna start,
Speaker 1: And all of a sudden, you get a clean slate.
Speaker 1: You build that up, and then you get Atlanta at home,
Speaker 1: and then you go on the road to Tampa and
Speaker 1: you have those two days and and now you're into
Speaker 1: your third preseason game against Jacksonville where the starters are
Speaker 1: gonna get three quarters so so, and then you're winding
Speaker 1: down and who's gonna make the team. So all these
Speaker 1: stages of training camp in preseason, get you ready for
Speaker 1: September eighth and the Baltimore Ravens coming to town, and
Speaker 1: and where you are as a football team. So I
Speaker 1: think you're right. You know, those stages will be interesting
Speaker 1: as we go through the audible to kind of critique
Speaker 1: that and kind of see where our opinion on everything
Speaker 1: is as we as we get better as a football team,
Speaker 1: hopefully especially with this team. This is a unique situation, John,
Speaker 1: for you and I both because there have been so
Speaker 1: many wholesale changes coaching, staff wise, players move player movements.
Speaker 1: So you know, we've gotta get We gotta sit here
Speaker 1: and watch these guys and and and watch how they're
Speaker 1: coaching them, and watching how guys are taking coaching and
Speaker 1: watching you know some guys that you know, is Devin
Speaker 1: got You're gonna take that next step up? Is he
Speaker 1: gonna be that guy? Uh? Can Jesse Davis, you know,
Speaker 1: really solidify the fact that he's an NFL offensive alignment
Speaker 1: from from week one all the way through. Somebody else,
Speaker 1: which one of these quarterbacks is gonna emerge and be
Speaker 1: a guy that's you know, there's gonna be somebody that says, hey,
Speaker 1: you know we can win nine or ten games with
Speaker 1: this guy, you know. And so there there's a lot
Speaker 1: of questions that are gonna be answered. We've just seen
Speaker 1: day one of it today, and and you know, like
Speaker 1: I said, I'm pretty optimistic always about this football team,
Speaker 1: but I'm really optimistic about this franchise right now and
Speaker 1: the hands that it's in with Chris Greer and with
Speaker 1: Brian Floores, a lot of other people have been stripped
Speaker 1: off in that in that level, and I think it's
Speaker 1: cleared the path for less, less voices in there, but
Speaker 1: more focus on what they feel is a key to
Speaker 1: winning football games and bringing this franchise back to where
Speaker 1: they wanted to be. And speaking of the franchise, you know,
Speaker 1: I had some conversations out there. They've already started working
Speaker 1: on the new training facility down by the stadium. They're
Speaker 1: starting to level grade things out there and do stuff.
Speaker 1: So you know that that's gonna all be going. And
Speaker 1: and if you're paid any attention when they put that
Speaker 1: tennis tournament together, it's I saw Tom Garfield and I said,
Speaker 1: Tom wasn't gonna take about three months to get that training.
Speaker 1: That seems like that's why what you did with the
Speaker 1: tennis tournament and turned out to be one of the
Speaker 1: great world class tennis tournaments, uh, you know in the world.
Speaker 1: So um, I expect that to be nothing but a
Speaker 1: world class facility. So it's nice to see that that's
Speaker 1: getting getting underway. And uh so yeah, it's it's just uh, John,
Speaker 1: was a good day, good way to start training camp.
Speaker 1: You know, I was watching TV the other day and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, team, no, no, well you know what,
Speaker 1: I saw an ad for Sunday Night Football and go,
Speaker 1: oh man, it's it's here. It's here. We're right in
Speaker 1: the middle. Love it. And I know baseball is going on,
Speaker 1: and I know basketball is trying to sell their summer
Speaker 1: league and this and that. But I can tell you this.
Speaker 1: You turn on Sports Center, you're turning anything. You're gonna
Speaker 1: get a hell of a lot of football between now
Speaker 1: and in next February. And I couldn't be more I
Speaker 1: couldn't be more happy about it. It's exciting a great
Speaker 1: time for us because we finally you know, you wait
Speaker 1: all off season, you get teased by you know, July fourth.
Speaker 1: I got plenty of time and now we're back in
Speaker 1: training camp. So it's a it's a great time for
Speaker 1: the organization. I just can't wait to see this team
Speaker 1: grow and and and be a competitive football team. And
Speaker 1: it's been a number of opportunities to come out and
Speaker 1: watch practice. I think there's ten practices or whatever it
Speaker 1: is that are open to the public, and so if
Speaker 1: you're out there and you want to catch the Dolphins,
Speaker 1: you can look at the newspaper, you go on to
Speaker 1: the Dolphins website Dolphins dot com, and you can find
Speaker 1: the schedule. Most practices are at nine forty in the
Speaker 1: morning when they're available. There's a ten thirty on Tuesday,
Speaker 1: and talked about the one of Scott one o'clock scrimmage
Speaker 1: in a couple of weeks, so you know there's different times,
Speaker 1: but there's there's plenty of portunity. It was nice to
Speaker 1: see a lot of fans out day one, and they
Speaker 1: bring them back to high school football teams, which I
Speaker 1: think is one of the really great outreach things that
Speaker 1: this team doesn't in our in our community. Bring the
Speaker 1: high school football teams in here and they come in
Speaker 1: their jerseys and they're feeling pretty good about themselves and
Speaker 1: and these these players come over and talk to them.
Speaker 1: Fifteen years old, come out and stand on the pretty
Speaker 1: cool and have and have the guy that plays your
Speaker 1: position come over. And yeah, so it's a it's a
Speaker 1: it's a it's a pretty good time of year and
Speaker 1: uh and yeah, you're just happy to be back. John
Speaker 1: has gonna do it for the audible today, John, Kijemmy,
Speaker 1: Kimbo Camper, we'll be with you next week and uh,
Speaker 1: look we'll have a lot more about training camp, a
Speaker 1: lot more what's going on. And uh is as John,
Speaker 1: I continue to kind of stay out there and try
Speaker 1: to get some insight for for you guys and and
Speaker 1: get this season going. And and again, hey let's let's
Speaker 1: be optimistic and uh and see what happens with this group.
Speaker 1: I'm feeling good about him, feeling good about this coaching staff.
Speaker 1: And uh and I think this. I think we're in
Speaker 1: a surprise of people this year. I hope so Bo.
Speaker 1: I mean, if day one's any in ducation, these guys
Speaker 1: are working hard and and they're only going to get better.
Speaker 1: And and you know the other good thing that training
Speaker 1: camps back and training is I know, if you guys,
Speaker 1: free lunch is back. Oh yeah, freeluce A lot of
Speaker 1: freeloaders around, a lot of freeloaders around today that no
Speaker 1: doubt about it. All right, that's gonna famo. We'll catch
