1
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:18,240
Speaker 1: God Bless Football. Billy Gill, God Bless Football, Billy Gill. Hey,

2
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 1: it's Billy Welcome. I know you're thinking today is not

3
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: the day that we normally listen to God Bless football. Well,

4
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: here's the thing. We're gonna have a little mini god

5
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: Bless football episode that we're putting out right now for

6
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 1: a specific reason. So we caught up with our friends

7
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 1: Austin Eckler. I say that because I have this thing

8
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 1: where I don't know if people consider me their friends.

9
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: We've gone over this. It's a weird thing that I have,

10
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,440
Speaker 1: so like, I don't want to say, hey, I'm friends

11
00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: with this person, and then this person doesn't think that

12
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: they're friends with me. It's like anyway, So we caught

13
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,279
Speaker 1: up with Austin Eckler, who, as you may or may

14
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: not know, is now a Washington commander. He signed last

15
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: week with them in like a free agent frenzy. We

16
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 1: were going to talk to him last week, but he

17
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: was on his bachelor party, so we said, you know what,

18
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: let's leave him alone and not bother him while he's

19
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: on his bachelor party, which we're going to talk to

20
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 1: him about in this episode. And we're also going to

21
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: talk to him about going to Washington, and he's pretty

22
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: candid about that and what went into that. And we're

23
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,559
Speaker 1: going to talk to him about his March Madness Bracket

24
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: tournament for a cause. So if you go to Echafoundation

25
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: dot org, you can sign up and donate to his

26
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 1: foundation and participate in a March Madness bracket. Which is

27
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: why you're getting this today because obviously March Madness starts

28
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: before Friday, so Austin wanted to promote this. We wanted

29
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: to kind of do right by him since he's been

30
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: good to us over the years and get this out

31
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 1: before your typical Friday episode. So hopefully you can go

32
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: to ecafoundation dot org and register there and kind of

33
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 1: help him out and all the good stuff that he does.

34
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: So you're also probably wondering, Billy, why are you talking

35
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: to yourself? It's a great question. So Steu guys had

00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 3: the new.

48
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 2: Welcome to the East Coast.

49
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: I know what happened there, but I remember that you said.

50
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 2: That's yeah. I know, man, I know.

51
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,239
Speaker 4: Is there anything about the new that makes you nervous

52
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 4: because people don't like change? Does Does something new make

53
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:05,640

54
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 2: Nervous? Not nervous. No, I'm not nervous for anything.

55
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 3: I know there's going to be an adjustment, and I'm

56
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 3: looking forward to the adjustment of just trying something new

57
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 3: in my life because I've been on the West Coast

58
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,519
Speaker 3: with the Charges obviously for the last seven years and

59
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 3: now kind of going into year eate, Hey, there's something

60
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 3: new that's on the table and kind of kind of

61
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 3: taking it on with like a lot of just forward looking,

62
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 3: I guess affirmations for myself where it's like it's a

63
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 3: new opportunity, right to be back on the field, new organization,

64
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 3: new coaches, new culture. Let's try to immerse myself in

65
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 3: this and take it on as what it is. It's

66
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 3: a new challenge for me and see if I can

67
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 3: see if I can make as much as I can

68
00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 3: with this one as I did.

69
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 2: With my other.

70
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: Well, there's a lot of new there is there a

71
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 1: comfort level there going and playing for against Anthony linigan.

72
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 3: Ooh, comfort is a is a you know, you gotta

73
00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 3: be careful with that word, and in uh, in sports,

74
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 3: you never really wanted to be true too comfortable. And

75
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 3: I think what what coach Lynn did a lot was

76
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 3: to keep pressure on us as players when he was

77
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: our head coach. And now it's gonna be a little

78
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 3: bit different because now he's in the room with me

79
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,839
Speaker 3: and he's not the head coach anymore. Uh. You know,

80
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,559
Speaker 3: we just caught up briefly when I was out there,

81
00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 3: just catching up on everything that's gone on for the

82
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 3: past seven years up to now and just how you

83
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 3: kind of turned over. But he still has the same demeanor,

84
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 3: still has that same seriousness about him when he's when

85
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 3: he's talking about the sports. So I'm looking forward to

86
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 3: being in his room, not necessarily being comfortable, but being

87
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 3: being pushed like I want to be coached, and I

88
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 3: know he was going to do that.

89
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be get You're.

90
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 5: Gonna have Cliff Kingsbury as your offensive coordinator. Was there

91
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,719
Speaker 5: anything you saw in his system that you really liked

92
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 5: that that made you want to go there?

93
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 2: His eyes smile, Well, I mean.

94
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 3: He was he was with us C right, So I

95
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 3: didn't watch I didn't watch any of USC's tape or

96
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 3: anything last year. And obviously he was with the maybe

97
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 3: not obvious, but he's with the Cardinals as well, and

98
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 3: you know, I was having a discussion with him. You know,

99
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 3: we can't talk football or anything like that, but it

100
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 3: seems like he's he's ready to put forward and put us,

101
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: try to put us in the best position you possibly can,

102
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 3: which is what I'm asking for.

103
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 2: And so we'll see what that looks like.

104
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 3: And you know, with with Dan with d Q was

105
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 3: with it, call him Dan Quinn over there, you know,

106
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 3: coming from from UH from Dallas and me playing with

107
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 3: Kellen last year, I know there was a lot of

108
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 3: hurry up stuff going in, so maybe I can anticipate

109
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 3: a little bit of that going in, But just I'm

110
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 3: excited because even I got you know, Brian Robinson in

111
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 3: the room with me over there too, or I guess

112
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 3: I'm joining.

113
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:47,359
Speaker 2: His room, depending on how you look at it. Uh,

114
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 2: it's your room. I mean, well, here's the thing, it's

Speaker 2: all of our room. It's all of our room.

116

00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:38,320

00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 2: Him, YEAH i think, SO i, Think, wait but your,

159
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 2: crew your. Brother everyone took good care of. You had

160
00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,840

161
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 2: a great.

162
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 3: Time it was my little brother and then one of

163
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 3: my best friends Names, Mark so it was just the

164
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 3: trio and we were enjoying ourselves out and out In.

165
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: Vegas it's.

166
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 3: Crazy there's so much stuff to do out here right

167
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 3: in the. Backyard SO i think jumping the trucks was

168
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 3: the most unique. Thing like every TIME i, go, like

169
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 3: you see this ramp and you're in this. TRUCK i

170
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 3: mean it's like a it's like a mid sized truck

171
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 3: that's got like really big suspensions on it and stuff like.

172
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 3: That but when you're going over these, ramps you're flooring

173
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 3: it pedal to the ground and you can't see like

174
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 3: the other, Side like you go into a big dip

175
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 3: and you can't see going, Out and so every time

176
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 3: you get off the, ground like my buttholes like puckering like,

177
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 3: oh and then boom you'd hit and then have to

178
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 3: like correct. It and so that was that was very.

179
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 3: INTENSE i would recommend it if you haven't tried out

180
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 3: in vase.

181
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: Ink was tried on the contract before we went on this,

182
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: adventure though correct.

183
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 2: Show it wasn't actually what's going on? Planning, look they

184
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:46,120
Speaker 2: dropped these things every.

185
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 3: Day you know, clearly you know there's some risk in,

186
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 3: living but you know you got to go out there

187
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 3: a little bit and try some.

188
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,320
Speaker 2: Things you, know not with eleven million on the. LINE i,

189
00:08:54,360 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 2: mean you, know maade it, through maade it. Through that's

190
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 2: all it. Matters you did make it. Through how many Teams?

191
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,320
Speaker 4: Austin do you? Know are you aware of how many

192
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 4: teams were actually interested in you in signing?

193
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 3: You, yeah there was like there was like six that

194
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 3: were like generinely like interested on the first, day some

195
00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 3: throughout a number some were, like, yes we want to,

196
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 3: talk but we were going after this person.

197
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 2: First and so it's a huge shuffle.

198
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 3: Man and the first day that we were able to

199
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 3: actually have that conversation with teams that we saw, it

200
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,719
Speaker 3: you guys saw like being being the running backs are.

201
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 2: Going like, crazy.

202
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 3: And so it was like a frenzy of who can

203
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 3: snag you, know some of our some of our guys

204
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 3: going into our second and third, contracts and so there

205
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 3: was there WAS i G i said probably that five

206
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 3: or six some that did throw, out a number some that.

207
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 3: Didn't but the ones that we felt were most interested

208
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 3: in the kind of like the the best fit for

209
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 3: as far as, Hey, austin what what you want out

210
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 3: of your career at this point was Was, Washington and

211
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 3: so ended up ended up out for herself as, well

212
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 3: and then you, know ended up plugging the gap over their.

213
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 5: Form, austin we want to get back To. Washington but

214
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 5: first you mentioned how all the money was being thrown

215
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 5: at all these running backs and for, years you, know

216
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 5: the past few seasons we've been talking about the running

217
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 5: back market is. Dead nobody's paying running. Backs what did

218
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 5: you make of all the money getting thrown out to

219
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 5: all you.

220
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 2: Guys, yeah there's somecouraging stuff out. There you.

221
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 3: KNOW i like to say kwon deal him getting himself in.

222
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 3: THERE i forgot What josh signed. For but it's it's.

223
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 3: Tough it really is tough because, like how do you, quantify.

224
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 2: You, know the the the impact on the.

225
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 3: FIELD i think it's almost skewed a little bit just

226
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 3: because Of i'm really not sure. Why maybe it's because

227
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,720
Speaker 3: quarterbacks get paid a lot of money in. Them we

228
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,560
Speaker 3: need something that can actually catch, them catch the ball

229
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 3: for these guys and get. Open and so maybe that

230
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 3: there's a little bit more emphasis, on you, know the

231
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 3: receiver spot as far as talking skill positions on offense getting. Paid,

232
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 3: obviously you, know the running backs are the least of the.

233
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 3: AMOUNT i guess tight ends. Too tight ends are STILL

234
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 3: i don't know that'd be it'd be curious to compare

235
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 3: the running backs and the tight. Ends but in my

236
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,840
Speaker 3: in my, experience tight ends have been a little bit

237
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 3: more impactful TO i, mean running backs have been more

238
00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 3: impactful to the offense with the ball in their hands

239
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 3: than then tight ends. Have and then same even with with,

240
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 3: receivers like you can have. Receivers it's crazy because you

241
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 3: can have, receiver you, know go and catch you, know

242
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 3: sixty balls a, year have you, know six hundred yards you,

243
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 3: know two, three four touchdowns and get paid ten million

244
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 3: dollars a. Year and it just it just seems skewed

245
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 3: when you have your starting running back who's going to

246
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 3: touch the ball you, know three hundred times you know a,

247
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 3: year not able to even get close to that.

248
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 2: Or get around.

249
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 3: That so obviously you got to you gotta put you

250
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 3: got to put product on the. Field and you, KNOW

251
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 3: i Think christian has been an advocate of what the

252
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,240
Speaker 3: position can be, like what the cap is that right

253
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,240
Speaker 3: now anyway in, sports and we're all chasing to make

254
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 3: as big as the impact he.

255
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 2: Has BUT i think he's under paid.

256
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 3: Too he should be getting paid twenty, five you, know

257
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 3: million dollars a. YEAR i think he's getting like seventeen right.

258
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 3: Now so that's just this is just my. Opinions so

259
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,559
Speaker 3: it really just comes down to you, know what you're.

260
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 3: Value And i'm clearly biased BECAUSE i played running, back

261
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 3: but just coming out of the lens of trying to you,

262
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 3: know see why the justification is you're paying a lot

263
00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 3: of these quarterbacks a lot of. Money you want to

264
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 3: try to get people that, hey you know they can

265
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:27,839
Speaker 3: get that can get open that these quarterbacks can throw.

266
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 2: To BUT i don't, KNOW i don't.

267
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 3: Know it's it's more THAN i could try to figure

268
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:33,319
Speaker 3: out here on this call by.

00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: but some of them, like but we're also interested in

276
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: if they have to settle for.

277
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,120
Speaker 3: Me, yeah, Absolutely and it comes down to the situation

278
00:12:58,160 --> 00:12:58,760

00:12:58,800 --> 00:12:59,760

Speaker 3: what they were looking, at and they're running back you, know,

282
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 3: position and it wasn't it wasn't WHAT i can offer

283
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 3: as a. Player there was there was a. Misalignment so it's, like,

Speaker 3: no value for For austin, there Then i'm willing to

364
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,400

365
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 3: outside of the.

366
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 2: Field and almost you almost.

368
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 3: number where, hey if if there was not enough interest

369
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 3: to get me to this type of, contract THEN i

370
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 3: would walk away from the game because, regardless, yeah you get,

371
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 3: paid it's still good, money but your body still has

372
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:33,600

375
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 3: then it's, Like, okay how much is this actually? Worth

376
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 3: and CAN i create more value for myself outside of the.

377
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:47,240
Speaker 3: Field and LUCKILY i wasn't even close to that, number

378
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 3: SO i, mean it wasn't really a, question but we

379

00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 3: where you, know kind of fell into this situation. Too

415
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 3: and the money was there as, well and they were

416
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,679
Speaker 3: looking for the same type of same type of role for,

417
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,159

Speaker 3: who's seen me in that, role you, know in that

419
00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 3: in that space as, well so.

420
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,760
Speaker 2: Kind of all fell into HOW i was expecting it. To,

421
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:30,800
Speaker 2: austin it.

422
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,840
Speaker 5: Looks like you're going to be working with another rookie

423
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 5: quarterback this, year and you could tell us.

424
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,040
Speaker 2: Who that is in a.

425
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 5: Minute but what did you learn you COULD i, mean

426
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 5: we're Ssuvie caleb goes number, one so you can tell

427
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:43,800
Speaker 5: us who you guys are going to take it, Too

428
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,280
Speaker 5: but you could tell us what did you learn from

429
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 5: working With justin when he was a rookie that you

430
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 5: could sort of bring to whoever they bring, in which

431
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 5: you'll tell us who that.

432
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 3: Is IT'S i think it's so different all the, like

433
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 3: just working with rookies in, general they're all so, different

434
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 3: not even just the quarterback. Position quarterbacks are different in

435
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 3: their own way, too because they have, to you, know

436
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 3: run and step into a leadership role, immediately and everyone's

437
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 3: looking at you to make the plays and lead us

438
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 3: on the, field even though you got guys that, are you,

439
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 3: know sometimes ten years older than, you and you know

440
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 3: that you're playing and have been playing for a long.

441
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 2: Time and now you've got to go tell these, guys.

442
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:20,760
Speaker 3: HEY i need you to line up here and run this,

443
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 3: route and, HEY i need you to be shorter that

444
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 3: you're almost coaching them in a. Way and so that's

445
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:27,200
Speaker 3: going to be a bridge that whoever our quarterback is

446
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 3: going to have to come in and depending on you,

447
00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 3: know what they've done in the, past they're kind have

448
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 3: to step into that and get comfortable in.

449
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 2: That AND i.

450
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 3: Think it's important as a, player especially as a vet

451
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 3: is to like invite, that like ask ask for, that

452
00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:39,840
