1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: Okay, it's another another big week for US. UM. You know, 2 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:08,840 Speaker 1: I had two two good weeks on the road to 3 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: really um competitive practices with both Tennessee and Detroit and 4 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 1: the in the game. So you know, this week could 5 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: be a little bit different for US. We gotta get 6 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:23,799 Speaker 1: ourselves ready to go against Carolina and short week and 7 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: try to you know, maximize the opportunity that we have 8 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:31,479 Speaker 1: here and be ready against obviously very talented, well coached 9 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:35,639 Speaker 1: and UM you know, good fundamental football team as as 10 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: as the Panthers always are. You know, Coach Rivera does 11 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:42,479 Speaker 1: a great job with that team. They're always and one 12 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: of the least penalized teams in the league. Play very 13 00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:48,519 Speaker 1: sound making OAR and everything. I'm streaming of the well 14 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 1: coached with the coach Turner, coach Rivera, you know on 15 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: the offensive defensive sides of the ball, UM Blackburn special team. 16 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: So they they got a good core group of guys 17 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: and very talented. So it would be a good, good 18 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 1: opportunity for us to UM get a little closer to 19 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: a regular season routine and and be ready to go 20 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: on Thursday night. We talk about a regular season routine, 21 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: how much of that is having the players look at 22 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 1: Panther's personnel just to getailiar with them, even though you're 23 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: probably not going to do much game plan name. Yeah, sure, 24 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: it's a lot different than the last two weeks when 25 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: we were actually practicing against the guys who are going 26 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 1: to play against Now we have to try to learn 27 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: through them on film and simulate them in practice and 28 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 1: um yeah, so that'll be a big, big change for 29 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: what it's been. Obviously we have to be ready to 30 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: do that during the year, but this is this would 31 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: be the first time I really we've had to do that. 32 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: Do you have to be Is there also a message 33 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: of there's only two weeks after the camp, like you know, 34 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: the trains start to move and we need to so 35 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: you're going pretty soon. Yeah, whatever you need to do 36 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 1: it at the time is now to do it. I 37 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: think everybody's well aware of that. Ben, let's start living 38 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: under a rock somewhere. Um, have you had a chance 39 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: to meet with Josh greens More? Let meet with the 40 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: players every day? Should be a good spirits and excited 41 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: about his opportunity. Yeah, I mean I'll release a statement 42 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 1: on that. I have nothing to it. That's where we're at. 43 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: Did you come in and you know or how would 44 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: you describe did you come into good shape or to 45 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: be pleased with how he maintains. I think I've already 46 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: covered a lot bill. Do we get a good did 47 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: you get happy to statement? They saw it, but it's 48 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: been a copy. Yeah, sorry, I mean I don't do 49 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: my face, but I mean, well, we happy to give 50 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 1: you a copy of it. It's relate. That's where I'm at. 51 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 1: So I had one one question about it, about the statement, 52 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: because it did feel like there's maybe a little bit 53 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: of room there in terms of his future with the team, 54 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: maybe some uncertain teeth. So if he's available according to 55 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: the league, is there any uncertainty as far as you're 56 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: concerned as to whether or not he'll he'll be with 57 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: the team. He hasn'tame been on the field yet. I 58 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: think I covered it. That's there's nothing more to add. 59 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 1: There's another line of questioning or Wiggins or can of 60 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: witness step down? Now I'm just curious. Hey, I'm Henry 61 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: Levison from Danish TV. Could you talk about what you've 62 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: seen from Yata through all so far? Oh, similar to 63 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: all of our rookies. Um and it was a hard 64 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: working kid. Um. He's scotten a lot better. Still is 65 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: a long way to go. There's a lot of things 66 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: he can improve on, but he's he's made progress. It's 67 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: got a lot of playing time last couple of weeks. 68 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: Hopefully he can benefit from that and it will continue 69 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 1: to improve. You also have had sea bats here, Um Vollmer, 70 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: what do you think it brings to a team to 71 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: have a guy with a different culture from from overseas, 72 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: from Europe? I don't know. We're all different. There's a 73 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: lot of different people in the locker room from all 74 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 1: different in all different shapes, sizes, geographic, ethnic, religious, socioeconomic 75 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: r I mean, it's all that's pro football. So it's 76 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: a good mix. You know, he's a good teammate. Um, 77 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: that's all really we can ask because teams that the 78 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: people buy into the team and then support the team, 79 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 1: regardless of where they're from or any of the other 80 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: circumstances that we can't none of us can really control 81 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: that they be a part of the team and contribute 82 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: to the team. That's all I ask the wide receiver 83 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: group on the whole, how would you That's the way 84 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: that competition has unfolded to disappointments. Camp with the receivers. 85 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: I think the guys that have been out there have improved. Um, 86 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: there's still a lot of said, a lot of people 87 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: we haven't seen actively on the field, and we've seen it, 88 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 1: but they haven't participated, so to be determined. Good. Let 89 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: me see Julian back up there soon. Um, I mean 90 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: he's he's been here every day. Yeah, we change the 91 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: status will be the first thing out appreciate that I 92 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: deal with. They need to appreciate closed practices. Things were 93 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: a couple a bit when the bands more private. H Yeah, 94 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: I don't not really. I mean we do what we 95 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: need to do, try to be Look, we need to 96 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: have as productive of practice as we can have on 97 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: it every single day. We don't really have that many 98 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: of them, so our focus is on what we can 99 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:15,480 Speaker 1: do to get better. Also change him. He came to camp. Yeah, 100 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: he's catching up. As you said, it's late. It's kind 101 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: a long way to go, but he's catching up so 102 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: soon he's able to do this week. He's injury situation 103 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 1: before he came. Is that way he's kind of out 104 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 1: there for so long? Yeah, I don't know. You have 105 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 1: to ask the other thirty one teams. I'm not sure 106 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 1: what kind of improve you've seen him from Dorset in 107 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: his third year with you guys, Well, I think he 108 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: feel has been a pretty steady player for us, and 109 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: he's a smart kid. He knows the offense, he knows 110 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:50,360 Speaker 1: all the positions, um, and he's been able to play 111 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: in a number of critical situations for us through the years, 112 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: so either due to injury or game plan or whatever 113 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: the circumstances were. So I think he's been a solid player. 114 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 1: It's a great kid, works hard, That's everything we asked 115 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: him to do. Do you see his approach maybe having 116 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: influence over some of the guys who are new here. 117 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: He does. Yeah, he does a good job. I think 118 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: it's positive for everybody, new, old coaches, players. Yeah, he 119 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: comes to work ready to go every day. It's well prepared, 120 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: he's smart, he doesn't make a lot of mistakes. Um. 121 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 1: He tries to work on the things to think him 122 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: a better player. I think everybody respects that. Whatever you've 123 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: seen from Terrence Brooks, that's allowed him to carve out 124 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: a role a little bit more on defense special team. Well, 125 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: we've given everybody an opportunity to perform throughout training camp 126 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: and practice or in preseason games and both, So we'll 127 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: see what roles everybody has. I don't know, I don't 128 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 1: know what those are. Some of that will depend on 129 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: game plan and m matchups and so forth. So definitely 130 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: haven't got to that point yet, so I'll just let 131 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: everybody play and see how it goes. The sense that 132 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: Tony Shell is getting more comfortable in the passing game, yeah, 133 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: I think somebody's more comfortable with everything second year, like 134 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: probably every other second year player is. It's always good 135 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: to be through it, go through it the first time. 136 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: Learn from the experience. You know what you need to do, 137 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 1: know how to improve it, Anticipate things, see you know, 138 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: react quicker because you've seen it before. So yeah, but 139 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: I think that's true of all all second all of 140 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: our second year players. Because last year the years was 141 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: saying that training camp can play it a pretty big 142 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: role in helping running back Jack comfortable or just in 143 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,920 Speaker 1: the offensive you generals that same you've seen the name 144 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,079 Speaker 1: you said, that's true, but this time of the year, Yeah, definitely, absolutely, 145 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: that's what we're out there for. All those snaps of 146 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: pass protection and recognizing coverages and it's own coverage, man coverage, leverage, 147 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: timing of plays and routes and so forth. Yeah, absolutely, 148 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: he didn't have a lot of that last year. His 149 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: foundations much better this year because of it. Bill, you 150 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: mentioned yesterday about it's getting Byron Coward because of the 151 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: situations heave of Maryland, there was a limited sample of 152 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: him pass rushing. So how do you go about gaining 153 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: insight into his potential there as a pass rusher when 154 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: there's only you know, a few snaps of him doing 155 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: that in college? Wellson's we do about college. So we 156 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: teach him what to do here and give him instruction 157 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,240 Speaker 1: to do it, and when he gets an opportunity to 158 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: do it, but it's in practice or in one on 159 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: one drills or in games, then we evaluate it and 160 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: correct it and improve it. And so, I mean, it 161 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: wasn't like he never saw any pass plays in Maryland, 162 00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: but the position he played, his responsibilities and kind the 163 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: game is, it's just a different game at that level. Um, 164 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,599 Speaker 1: I think he's doing now a little bit different. You know, 165 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: he's picking them up and still is a long way 166 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: to go, but he's in pro them. You expect to 167 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: have Derrek Riwery's practice layers. Yeah, those injury reports is 168 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: that in two weeks. Yeah, I'm pretty excited to be 169 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: able to give those out when they come out a 170 00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Yeah, So until then we just we 171 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 1: haven't we were not able to do that. But looking 172 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: forward to those injury reports when when we get to 173 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: give those out, make sure you guys will get a 174 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: copy of them. Everybody to be left behind. How's keeping 175 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 1: a crossing? The second year second similar to the other 176 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: second year guys who talked about again in a small 177 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: school player, big jump for him schematically. Um, and I'd say, 178 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 1: you know, just culturally from in a Western Carolina to 179 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: the National Football League's just a big now, it's a 180 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 1: big change in lifestyle and football and so forth. So 181 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: but he's yeah, he's doing well. Oh with the short turnaround, 182 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 1: does this give you another form of something to evaluate, 183 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: just to see how players react to the short preparation 184 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: and how they get their body physically ready and emotionally 185 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 1: ready for Thursday night. Yeah, it's definitely an opportunity for 186 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: them to do that. Um, it's a situation that is 187 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: similar to what we'll be facing in the regular season. 188 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: So today's Monday. We were off yesterday, so it's an 189 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 1: extra day there, but we'll be coming in on Monday 190 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: and playing on Thursday night during the regular seasons. That's 191 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: from here to there is where we are now now. 192 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: Not everybody played Saturday night. A lot of players that 193 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: have a heavy that took a heavy practice load, had 194 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: less of a game load. A lot of players that 195 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 1: had a lesser practice load took a heavier game load. 196 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 1: So it's it's not all quite apples to apples here, 197 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: but as a week, it as an opportunity for everybody 198 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: to get on an accelerated schedule that we need to. 199 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: We need to be able to get on at some 200 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,599 Speaker 1: point here that we'll have to get on during the 201 00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 1: regular season, and so it's a good good time to 202 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: do it, whether it's physically as you said, mentally preparation 203 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: emotionally being ready for the game, both as a coach 204 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: and a player like this is a good opportunity for us, 205 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: and we'll take advantage of it and try to prepare 206 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: ourselves the best we can do. You think Brady needs 207 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 1: to play Thursday next to get a regular season well, 208 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 1: as always, we'll do it's best for the football team, 209 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: for each player and for the team. LANs Kendricks has 210 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: been back in the field for a couple of days. Now, 211 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: what did you see from him in the month or 212 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: so that he's been here. Well, Lance is an experienced player, 213 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: you know, he's been in this offensive system with Josh 214 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: and with the Rams, so it's not the same, but 215 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: it's similar certainly as a good background on it. He 216 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,439 Speaker 1: picks things up quickly and has you know, quite a 217 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: big experience in a league anyway. So he's done well 218 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 1: and it's good to get him back out there last 219 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: week and to see him have a chance to play 220 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: against Tennessee and will build on that going forward this week. Bill, 221 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: You've been asked about a handle a second year guys 222 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: Stevie Sheldonza's in a second year guy with his second 223 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:22,680 Speaker 1: year with you. How have you noticed him handling everything 224 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: that's been been thrown at him here this summer? Good? Good, 225 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 1: same thing. I mean, I think he's a lot more 226 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 1: comfortable with the scheme. We have more experience with him 227 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: as a player, Like there are certain things that we 228 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 1: can do to put him in good position to be productive, 229 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: and he's worked on things that he knows he needs 230 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: to do in our scheme that may be a little 231 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 1: bit different from other schemes that he's played in, so 232 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: he's better prepared, he's in good conditions. He's a good 233 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: camp and a good spring, so you know, glad he's 234 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:05,400 Speaker 1: here to go help us. You always, even after a 235 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: full year with a guy, then you will maybe learn 236 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: some new things about a particular player in terms of 237 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: how they fitness scheme for instance, or sure something. Yeah, 238 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 1: I think there's always a period of growth. I mean, 239 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: you know one player for twenty years, and I think 240 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 1: you know still you know growth. Tom and I talked about, 241 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: you know a lot of things the last couple of 242 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: weeks just relative to the offense plays, evolution of different 243 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: things that we're seeing, how to adjust to him, how 244 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: to handle him. Um, So you know, I think that's 245 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: an ongoing certainly if we if we do it, I 246 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: would think be true of any player or any coach 247 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 1: for that matter. It's an involving game things. It changes 248 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: every year, it changes a week to week. So I 249 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: don't think you're ever just stuck in one spot. Okay, 250 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: what sort of role did the senior role playing Jacoby 251 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: Myers is evaluation, It's some one piece of a big puzzle. 252 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: It's like everything else is. I mean some players playing 253 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 1: my game, some players don't. But it's I mean, in 254 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: the end, you take the mosaic of all the all 255 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: the things that you have, all the information you have 256 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 1: on players, and put it all together. Some pieces might 257 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 1: be a little larger than others, but I mean in 258 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 1: the end, you've got a lot of you have a 259 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: lot of information there that you have to just try 260 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 1: to evaluate as a composite and put put a value 261 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: on it. All right, Yeah, thank you.
