1 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 1: Mike. Other than getting a better handle on your backup 2 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: quarterback situation, what are or some things you're looking to 3 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: come out of this game with a better idea of Well, definitely, 4 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:14,920 Speaker 1: just you know, get the younger players to play. I 5 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,319 Speaker 1: mean that's you know, we're gonna we're gonna sit you know, 6 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 1: probably thirty players. I'm not gonna get the whole list writings. 7 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:21,759 Speaker 1: I don't have it in front of me, but we're 8 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: gonna yeah so rich hell so, but uh, just really 9 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: to you know, to get the information and make sure 10 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: we maximize the opportunity for the final rosters. Anything serious, No, um, 11 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: it doesn't seem a serious nature, but you know it's 12 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: just something that we're watching. Just gonna be cautious with 13 00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 1: turning that. I think it's twice he's had to lead 14 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,839 Speaker 1: with the singer things linger a little bit. Well, I 15 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 1: think it's part of you know, some of the things 16 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: he's dealt with in the past, and um so based 17 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: on the information I have you know currently, Uh, it 18 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: doesn't seem to be a long term concern. As camp 19 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 1: closes up here, how do you kind of view what 20 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 1: you got done and in what position you're where you 21 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 1: want to go? Oh wow, reflection and training camp. Um, 22 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: it's definitely it's you know, it's obviously the first experience 23 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 1: for for me personally. UM. I like the work that 24 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: we were able to get done in Oxnard. I thought 25 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: just the quality of practices that we had out there, 26 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: you know, the workload capacity that you're able to really 27 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: push it with your players. And I thought the you know, 28 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: just let me just GPS alone was you know, I 29 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,559 Speaker 1: thought it was the work was was was really good. 30 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: Um so just going off comparables from the past, so 31 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: that was a good stretch. Um, you know, had to 32 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: work against the RAMS. Transition back here has been a 33 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 1: little different, you know that would like, you know, we 34 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: want to continue that this week, get outside more and 35 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: this heat, get ready for Tampa. But um, you know, 36 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: we had we did a really good job done with 37 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: the COVID situation here in the last couple of weeks. 38 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: And frankly, I think the way the camp is has 39 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: um you know, materialized. I think it's frankly pretty good 40 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: training for the way our season starts. You know, if 41 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: you look at the way our season starts with the 42 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: Thursday Monday, you know type schedule, so we're you know, 43 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: we have an off schedule there first four weeks, but UM, teams, 44 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:22,839 Speaker 1: you know, we're able to get through all the things 45 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 1: we wanted to get through. You know, it's good to 46 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,519 Speaker 1: have Dac back out there. So I think the offense 47 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: definitely took a you know, it's taken a step here 48 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: of late. We're gonna do We're actually gonna do two 49 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: competitive periods today with our ones because you know, obviously 50 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: from today they won't practice again till until next week. 51 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: So we've been able to hit most of our targets, 52 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 1: and you know, I'm glad we have no extra time 53 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: before we play the opener. Yeah, look good, Um explosive. 54 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: I think he's done an excellent job and a rehab process. 55 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 1: You can see that he's definitely in excellent shape. So 56 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: it was great to have them back out there. You know, 57 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: he brings tremendous energy to juice store defense. What are 58 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 1: some of the things to do for Dat to kind 59 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: of make up for lost time in practice, to ramp 60 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 1: him up to or to get him used or more 61 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: accustomed to the team. Um, I would say, you know, 62 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 1: make up for lost time. I thought he did a 63 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: great job staying in it. You know, he's you know, 64 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: he stood right behind the you know, the huddle right 65 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: behind so I mean he was able to take his 66 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,440 Speaker 1: advantage as much as he could with the actual opportunities 67 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: you know, live action. So he's very engaged, you know, 68 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: and everything he does. I mean I think that's stayed obvious. So, um, 69 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 1: he just he just now needs those competitive throws. I mean, 70 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,360 Speaker 1: that's that's the only thing left really that if we 71 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: can get as much of those as as we can 72 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: before between now and the Tampa game, you try to 73 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: do more of that competitive paras up than he normally 74 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: would have done. Well, I mean it's a catch, you know, 75 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: it's a little bit of a you know, Um, I 76 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: think that's today. You know, we have two periods in 77 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 1: there that we normally wouldn't have that are competitive on 78 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: a Saturday on a Saturday practice, so you know, we're 79 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: gonna do whatever we need to do to get to 80 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 1: get our offense and sync. Will you play your quarterbacks 81 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: in the game tomorrow? Will you split the time with Yeah, 82 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: we'll go. We'll go with Cooper and Garret will split 83 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: and then and then men will finish it up on 84 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: the COVID front. Anybody else back today or you encourage 85 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 1: that maybe it's this little outbreak is a little I'm 86 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: hopeful that we're through it, you know. So you know, 87 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 1: we still up the guys that are working off of 88 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: the you know, they're working our way out of you know, 89 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: COVID protocol. But we have we've had no new cases 90 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: the last couple of days to call the game. No, 91 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: he wouldn't then will not be able to call on 92 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: Joe Wit will be the play caller again. Actually that 93 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: the guys that are on the covie list will be 94 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: ready when you started to reverse week practice, yes, I yeah, 95 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: I think well, I think we'll be ready to go. Obviously, 96 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: as long as we have nothing between now and you know, 97 00:04:54,760 --> 00:05:00,720 Speaker 1: next Thursday. Were about to say something after Yes, nuss 98 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: Meyer is going to call the offense. So we're gonna 99 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: give Dug that opportunity. So looking forward to that, Kevin's 100 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: been able to spend some extra time working on Tampa. 101 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: So that's something that you've done before. What's the benefit 102 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: of that. I mean, I, frankly, a lot of a 103 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: lot of things I do with assistant coaches or reflection 104 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: from my own experience. I'll tell assistant coaches this all 105 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: the time. I remember the first time I stood in 106 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,919 Speaker 1: front of the whole team, you know, six and you 107 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: know you give your first talking you go, Holy Michael, 108 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people in it's from you know, 109 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: you're used to doing it, you know, from the whole 110 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 1: offense or you know, your quarterback coaching positions. I just 111 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: think it's a great opportunity that you can give an 112 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: assistant along the way that'll help prepare him for his 113 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: next step. So yeah, we've done. I've done to call 114 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: the fourth game for a number of years. Also, I've 115 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: given assistant coaches an opportunity to present them to the 116 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: whole team. You know, we'll get into some of that 117 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: at some point, but yeah, anytime you have a chance 118 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 1: to develop leadership or give a give a coach an opportunity, 119 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: I think it's important. You know. Um, it's just something 120 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: I've learned over my head coaching career. Than Kellen will 121 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 1: be on the sideline, yes, Um no, I think we're 122 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: gonna hold him today. Yeah, Donald went for week one. 123 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: Is any questions I don't have any questions for week one, 124 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: you know right now? So I mean I think this 125 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: is something you know, he's not complained the game, so 126 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: he'll be he'll be minimum today. I rush okay, yeah, it's, 127 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: you know, something a little under the weather. You know, 128 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: we had a couple of guys battling some stuff, but 129 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: they're getting better. Thank you, thank you,
