Jd um what 0:00:26.880 --> 0:00:31.800 an accolade. Welcome in. It's Jaguars Happy Hour. I'm J P. Shadrick, 0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:36.440 Jeff Blagovan coming up. Here's what's on the program today, 0:00:36.640 --> 0:00:40.280 and we'll review the Urban Meyer comments of Peter King. 0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:45.680 We'll hear from Peter King coming up, talking about Trevor Lawrence. Finally, 0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:50.040 the seventeenth game voted on by league owners and we'll 0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:52.880 get to some proposed rule changes that will be voted 0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:57.600 upon in the coming weeks by the league ownership offseason workouts. 0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:00.440 The dates for those have been a now outs, but 0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:03.000 not much further beyond that will go around the National 0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:09.399 Football League as well, including an ownership dispute in Southern California. 0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:13.480 Jeff Logerman, good afternoon. What's up man? It's all good JP. 0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:16.920 And by the way, is that People's magazine? I don't know, 0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:20.440 but People Magazine? Uh, last time I checked, you weren't 0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:25.840 the sexiest man in that magazine. Probably probably that might 0:01:25.840 --> 0:01:27.360 have been the cover of the like you know, when 0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:30.839 you go to the fair and they superimpose your face 0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.200 on the magazine cover. Right, Yeah, that might have been. 0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:37.480 I'll take whatever I can get. I'll put it that way. 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:40.560 That's fine with me. Look like, here's the deal though, 0:01:40.640 --> 0:01:44.200 I mean, look, I don't want anybody getting confused thinking 0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:46.679 that that's a real deal story. I mean it's why 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:51.800 not because some people might actually think that that's the truth. Remember, 0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:56.000 it's just exactly. Remember when we did the oh it 0:01:56.120 --> 0:02:00.960 was the the Jeff Lockman behind Football thing that we 0:02:01.000 --> 0:02:04.280 did for the television Pro show some years ago. We 0:02:04.360 --> 0:02:08.520 did a parody of the NFL network um behind the 0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:11.360 Chains or whatever. It's good and we did the Jeff 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:15.080 Logaman when and it was so well done by Patrick Kavanaugh, 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:17.079 David Canis and the crew. I think I did the 0:02:17.160 --> 0:02:20.200 voicing of it, all this stuff, and they ran it 0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.320 on the TV show and there are people that called 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:24.480 the TV station saying, hey, when is when is the 0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:26.840 when does it actually air? Like they were looking for 0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:30.200 this thing, but they didn't know it wasn't real. It 0:02:30.240 --> 0:02:33.520 was pretty good. Excuse me, it was very well done. 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:37.880 And by the way, Happy April Fool's Day, Yes, yes, 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:41.400 happy Happy April Fools. Is that is there such a thing? 0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:44.200 I don't know. You just brought it up. So we're 0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:46.200 gonna get a little later. We got a guy in 0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:49.120 the league who's you know, included the Jaguars on his 0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:51.880 April Fools, but we'll get to that a little bit 0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:55.680 later though. Well, I got the old Teacher, their Ultimate teach. 0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:58.440 I can't wait to see that and hear that. But 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:01.359 I'm looking forward to it. A lot going on, so here, 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:04.920 here's the one thing that we will say, Okay Wettle disclaimer. 0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:10.720 We will not give anybody false information on this show today. 0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:13.200 Even though we don't do a Fool's Day, we don't 0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:16.840 do it. Ever. We're always pretty straightforward here we are. 0:03:17.200 --> 0:03:21.560 We're very straight up and on especially today, because anything 0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:25.519 today could be taken. You gotta double check on a 0:03:25.600 --> 0:03:30.760 day like today. A tweet today, right, So Roy Williams. 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:33.280 I was talking to Urban Meyer earlier today and he said, 0:03:33.320 --> 0:03:37.680 they're not taking Trevor Roy right. You know. Then imagine 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:42.160 Action puts out the tweet today that Roy Williams is retiring, 0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:45.760 and everybody's like, wait a minute, Oh, wait a minute, 0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:48.000 he is retiring, you know, like they had to really 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:49.960 kind of double check and make sure. Now see if 0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:53.560 if you was coming it is real, If that's real, 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:58.839 you don't put that out on April one, you think 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:02.120 everybody celebrates Tapril fools. You hold it or you do 0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:04.480 you do it the day before. I mean, if you 0:04:04.640 --> 0:04:06.760 if you release it on April one, you had the 0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:09.600 information on the last day in March. I mean, have 0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:13.720 a little awareness there, just saying but it's true. I mean, 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:16.120 what do what you gotta do? Like waited other day 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:19.960 so all the jokes can get out. Yeah, I mean 0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:22.360 what if you want to die hard? Would you not? 0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:25.280 I mean you would be like, that's that's come on, 0:04:25.960 --> 0:04:30.880 pulling our leg. It's April fir come on. So uh nothing, 0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:32.920 We're gonna shoot it straight here today. So there's a 0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:34.719 lot going on. We'll hear from Peter King coming up. 0:04:34.760 --> 0:04:37.440 He was on the ozone podcast. Of course, Peter had 0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:40.240 Urban Meyer on his podcast earlier in the week and 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:43.040 had some news come out of that. But around the league, 0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:44.400 and we had last week on the show, we had 0:04:44.480 --> 0:04:46.919 Judy Batista on from NFL Network. It was going into 0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:50.760 the owners meetings. Well, the owners have met and voted 0:04:50.839 --> 0:04:54.039 seven team games down in the regular season, three preseason games. 0:04:54.400 --> 0:04:57.680 The Jags have picked up the Atlanta Falcons. The seventeenth 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:01.040 game will feature teams from opposing conferences that finished in 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:04.440 the same place within their division the previous season. This year, 0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:06.760 the a f C gets the home game and the 0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:08.960 FC South just happened to match up with the NFC 0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:11.800 South this year, so the Jags get the Falcons. Both 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:15.560 teams were in last place last season, and it moves 0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:17.560 back to the Super Bowl another week as always, and 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:20.640 it also adds logs, which was in this story. In 0:05:20.680 --> 0:05:24.800 the release, it adds a rotation of international games. Beginning 0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:28.120 in two every team in the league will play internationally 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:31.160 at least once every eight years, up to four neutral 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:34.440 site games per year. Scheduled initially focused on listen to 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:38.440 This focused on Canada, Europe, Mexico, South America, and the 0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:42.080 United Kingdom. So I'll look to expand the international Let 0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:43.800 me just say one thing, because you said it's gonna 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:48.480 add it's really not adding games, because it's using games 0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:49.880 that are going to be on the schedule and then 0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:52.760 they're gonna be played overseas. So I want I want 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:55.440 to make sure because when you say they're adding them, 0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:57.880 some people might get the impression that, Okay, these are 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:01.120 gonna be on top of the stunt. I just wanted 0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:07.040 that we that, you know. But uh, I like the 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:11.799 idea of how they're they're coming up with the formula 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:15.400 for the seventeenth game. Here's what it's gonna do. It's 0:06:15.400 --> 0:06:19.520 gonna create some amazing matchups, right, I mean, because you're 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:25.120 taking essential equal finishers and opposite conferences and matching them 0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:27.480 up in whatever division you don't play already in the 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:32.280 sixteen there's so so now you're gonna get a division 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:35.200 champion versus division champion. I mean, you're talking about marquee 0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:40.240 games here, now, some fantastic games. Uh. The Atlanta Jacksonville 0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:42.279 game is not exactly a marquee game if you were 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.440 looking at it from a national perspective at all. Uh, 0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.600 other than you could end up having two rookie passers 0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:53.360 or future quarterbacks on both teams. I mean, the Falcons 0:06:53.360 --> 0:07:01.000 could conceivably draft. Uh. But you know, here, here's the thing. 0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.040 The owners voted on the seventeenth game. It was a 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:06.400 foregone conclusion, and we knew that it was gonna happen. 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:10.160 Everybody knew that it was. It was just a formality 0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:12.120 for the owners to go ahead and improve that. And 0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:14.360 jud pats To actually said the same thing to us 0:07:14.480 --> 0:07:17.680 last week, that it's a done deal because that was 0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:20.720 negotiated with the players union, and that was the whole 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:23.920 thing about the extent of the current deal. And and 0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:28.800 I was jokingly talking to Judy and pose the question about, well, 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:31.960 if you end up adding one game, you should subtract 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:36.120 two preseason games, because one regular season game is equal 0:07:36.160 --> 0:07:38.560 to two preseason games. But the reality is is that 0:07:38.640 --> 0:07:42.640 ownership will never give up that preseason game because that's 0:07:42.680 --> 0:07:45.760 a bargaining ship for the future. Because if they in 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:48.040 fact do want to go to a teen games, which 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:50.320 you know what, a lot of people say, Oh, that's 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:52.560 not gonna happen. It was very hard getting a seventeen. 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:55.400 The reality is is that at some point in the future, 0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:59.200 eighteen games lies in the NFL's future. And whether they 0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:02.360 get to that with expanded rosters or however they do it, 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.360 that means more money for the league. That means more 0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:08.800 players out of the rosters. And uh and with the 0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:12.560 union having a lot of change of membership at a 0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:15.440 pretty constant rate, I can tell you right now that 0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:17.480 eighteen games is gonna happen. I don't know how far 0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:19.520 out it's going to be, but at some point in 0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:22.119 the future it's gonna be. That's why the ownership won't go, Okay, 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:24.720 we're gonna play seventeen games and we're just gonna go 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:29.640 to two preseason games. They're losing the game. At some 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:31.840 point in the future, they're gonna say, okay, okay, well, 0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:33.800 you know what the agreement says, we're gonna have twenty games. 0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:36.040 Now we're gonna go to eighteen and two. You know. 0:08:36.200 --> 0:08:38.199 So I don't know, Like I said, I don't know 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:39.959 when that's gonna happen, but at some point in the 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:45.760 future that will happen. And to my I don't know this, 0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:48.480 but I guarantee you that it will. And number two 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:57.400 is that is that safe for the players both? I mean, 0:08:57.600 --> 0:08:59.480 I mean, that's you know, that's the one thing I think. 0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:04.720 I'm all for seventeen games because it provides more entertainment 0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:09.440 for me. I'm okay with that. Sure, Okay, But if 0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:14.120 I was still playing and the player membership and the 0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:16.880 league is talking about player safety, player safety, player safety, 0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.439 when you add games, is that adding the player safety, 0:09:19.880 --> 0:09:23.719 is that making the game safer or players if you 0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:28.480 don't put in some other kind of measures to protect players. 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:32.920 I just think that there's no doubt that the league 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:36.400 has has made leaps and bounds progress with trying to 0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:40.120 protect the players from the concussions and the protocols that 0:09:40.200 --> 0:09:42.959 they all have to go through and everything of that nature. 0:09:43.080 --> 0:09:46.280 They have. They have improved it dramatically. But they still 0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:50.079 need to to to not stop in the progress that 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:52.920 they have made to make the game safer for players. 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.800 And the one thing that I hope that happens is 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:58.800 that this past year, with the roster expanded like it 0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:02.480 did with COVID, I hope that going forward that they 0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:06.439 continue to have some type of roster expansion on a 0:10:06.520 --> 0:10:09.199 more permanent basis and not make it something that was 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:12.720 just unique because of the COVID issue that we all 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:17.320 were faced with. So going back to the preseason games, 0:10:17.400 --> 0:10:20.160 three of them this year, you know there's some football 0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:22.160 types across the hall, I'm sure that would argue, Hey, 0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:25.120 we need all these preseason games to evaluate these guys 0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:28.040 and and see who we really want on this roster. Right, 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:31.160 they didn't get a chance to do that last year. 0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:33.280 You can do that in three games. It will just 0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:35.880 will just change the way those three games looks. Getting three. 0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:37.959 What was game three in the past where it was 0:10:38.000 --> 0:10:40.679 kind of the dress rehearsal, Probably game two now, right, 0:10:40.720 --> 0:10:43.319 and then game three will be all the guys who 0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:45.679 are on the bubble. Any coach that will tell you 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:48.679 that they need to have three presect preseason games to 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:52.560 determine whether a guy can play is is it's hogwash. 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:56.240 You can find out in a couple because you're you're 0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:59.880 looking at players constantly on a daily basis, practice, through 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.760 out training camp, etcetera. I mean, but if you have 0:11:02.960 --> 0:11:05.840 the opportunity to, wouldn't you rather have it? Okay, we've 0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:07.920 got the still, yeah, you'd like to have twenty to 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:11.000 evaluate your roster. I mean in a perfect world, right, 0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:12.600 I mean because you know, hey, well let's make sure 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:15.679 let's add twenty games, you know, the preseason, because you know, 0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:18.199 then we really know, you know, we know that once 0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:20.000 he gets into the grind, how's he going to react? 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:24.240 You know. I don't know if there is a magic number, 0:11:24.320 --> 0:11:28.280 but I think two is plenty. And here's the reality. 0:11:29.080 --> 0:11:32.760 College football has never had any problem getting ready for 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:37.560 their regular season with how many preseason games they play. Huh, 0:11:38.520 --> 0:11:41.200 isn't that amazing. There's some teams that sleepwalk a little 0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:45.280 bit that first week though. Oh yeah, sure. But here's 0:11:45.320 --> 0:11:49.760 the here's the reality. It's still good football. I mean 0:11:50.000 --> 0:11:55.600 last year, no off season, no preseason, was it pretty 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:59.640 darn good football right out of the game. Yeah, the 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.199 lot out here was the same way. Everybody's worried about that. 0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:04.439 All of a sudden they come back and and and 0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:07.679 here and here's the thing. I get it, I understand it. 0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:10.760 It's about money, and that's what the preseason game is. 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:13.680 You still get gay, you still get concessions, you still 0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:17.959 get parking and uh, and you still have a card 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:20.160 in your vest, so to speak. If your ownership in 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:22.599 the future, with the current agreement that you have with 0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:24.880 the players, that maybe you could expand eighteen games in 0:12:24.920 --> 0:12:28.440 the future, because the agreement currently says twenty and it's 0:12:28.720 --> 0:12:32.880 all about negotiations and uh. And also about who holds 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:34.840 the power and if your ownership, you're not giving up 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:37.719 that power to have twenty games and and utilize every 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:39.679 one of them right now, So that's a bargaining chip 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:42.319 in the future.

Happy Hour is presented in part by 0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:49.400 t i A, a bank created to serve Bill to 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:53.920 perform publis where shopping is a pleasure and Baptist Health 0:16:54.240 --> 0:17:00.520 changing healthcare for good to tape the b in the hand. 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:04.119 The guy who, for the last three years everyone has 0:17:04.200 --> 0:17:06.920 said when he comes out, he's going to be the 0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:10.040 first pick in the draft. He is the closest thing 0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:13.840 to Andrew Luck since Andrew Luck. I think in this case, John, 0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:16.800 you shouldn't overthink it. You ought to just take the 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:21.280 guy who's far and away been the best candidate. And look, 0:17:21.640 --> 0:17:24.800 it could be that Zach Wilson, Trey Lance, one of 0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:28.800 these guys has a better NFL career. You just can't tell. 0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:31.520 But I think it would be I don't want to 0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:35.200 say irresponsible, that's that's the wrong word, but I think 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:38.320 it would be very strange if they if they wouldn't 0:17:39.040 --> 0:17:44.480 have taken Trevor Lawrence. That's Peter King from the NBC 0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:47.760 Sports Group, Now on the Ozone podcast available in the 0:17:47.800 --> 0:17:50.840 official Jaguars podcast network.

There but a nice long conversation between 0:17:57.640 --> 0:18:01.160 Oshan and Peter King. I welcome back to Jaguars Happy 0:18:01.320 --> 0:18:04.159 r J P. Shadrick, Jeff Lagerman, Glad you're along with 0:18:04.280 --> 0:18:06.440 us today. And that has been really the big talking 0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:09.080 point of the week logs is Urban Meyer's comments to 0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:13.399 Peter King on his podcast earlier in the week. You know, 0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:16.520 the question came up about can you really hear the 0:18:16.680 --> 0:18:20.320 football come out of a quarterback's hands, and he basically 0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:23.880 invited Peter to, hey, come listen to him the guy 0:18:23.920 --> 0:18:26.200 who's not you'll eat and then him and you'll hear 0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:28.320 the difference. And then the next question was, so, was 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:32.080 there really any question you're taking Trevor Lawrence. He said, well, 0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:34.119 it feels like we're gonna go in that direction. Let 0:18:34.200 --> 0:18:36.800 the owner officially make that decision a little later, but 0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:40.600 we're headed in that direction. That's the most definitive statement 0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:44.399 any decision maker has had around here publicly. Is it 0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:47.560 uh shocking, No, not at all. It's not. It's not 0:18:47.680 --> 0:18:51.119 shocking because he finally said something. Well, he says something 0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:54.000 and uh, and that kind of goes a little bit 0:18:54.080 --> 0:18:56.719 against the grain as far as what the league actually 0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:59.720 wants from teams that have the first overall pick, because 0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:02.679 the league would surely like to have a little bit 0:19:02.760 --> 0:19:06.480 of suspense involved with the draft. But is there you know, 0:19:07.200 --> 0:19:13.080 there's no, there's not any suspense. But I mean, it's 0:19:13.160 --> 0:19:17.879 it's a you go back a few years ago, and 0:19:19.520 --> 0:19:23.040 the contracts in some cases were already being negotiating at 0:19:23.080 --> 0:19:26.080 this point. You don't need to have that. And some 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:28.320 people may ask, well, you know, why don't why doesn't 0:19:28.359 --> 0:19:30.680 the team go ahead and start the contract negotiations with 0:19:30.760 --> 0:19:34.800 Trevor Lawrence. Well, the the draft now is slotted. You 0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:37.159 know what the amount is going to be. It's not 0:19:37.359 --> 0:19:41.200 like it's a negotiation process where you can negotiate above 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:43.560 and beyond a certain number. It's it's a fixed number. 0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:46.520 You know. So in the first round pick gets a 0:19:46.600 --> 0:19:49.160 percentage of your rookie pool, and then the second round 0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:52.240 pick gets another percentage of it. And some of the 0:19:52.680 --> 0:19:55.960 structure of the contract is negotiable, but for the most part, 0:19:56.600 --> 0:19:59.600 all of that stuff has been determined by the previous 0:19:59.720 --> 0:20:02.840 draft picks of previous classes and the percentages and such. 0:20:02.920 --> 0:20:05.840 We'll following suit. So there's not a whole lot to 0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:08.879 be done there. So I don't think it's any kind 0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:11.639 of earth shattering news, but it's I think it was 0:20:11.680 --> 0:20:15.040 pretty neat that Urban actually said that, just because it 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:17.040 kind of goes against the grain of what the NFL 0:20:17.160 --> 0:20:19.359 typically has done. Well, you know, we're not sure. You know, 0:20:19.560 --> 0:20:23.320 we're we're still looking at the fields. And you know, 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:27.160 the kid in North Dakota, Now that's a bunch of hogwash, 0:20:27.280 --> 0:20:28.800 you know, And that's what it was has been in 0:20:28.840 --> 0:20:32.119 the past. And look, Trevor Lawrence is um widely viewed 0:20:32.160 --> 0:20:36.280 as a a generational prospect and and everybody's looking forward 0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:40.320 to having him in Jacksonville. You know, he announced that 0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:42.680 he's not going to go to Cleveland for the draft. 0:20:42.760 --> 0:20:47.359 He'll be at Clemson watching the draft with family. Some 0:20:47.640 --> 0:20:50.359 some top prospects will go. The league has opened that up, 0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:53.240 but it sounds like Trevor is gonna do his own thing. Well, 0:20:53.960 --> 0:20:58.680 there's there's a couple I think opinions on that. One 0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:02.440 of them is it players should be grateful for the 0:21:02.520 --> 0:21:07.159 opportunity and thankful to the league because they're gonna be 0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:09.760 able to make millions of dollars and some fans believe that. 0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:14.320 And then the flip side of that is the players 0:21:14.359 --> 0:21:16.080 are that are being asked to go to the draft 0:21:16.160 --> 0:21:19.080 in Cleveland. They're not being compensated by the NFL. They 0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:22.520 would be compensated as far as whatever travel expenses that 0:21:22.600 --> 0:21:27.359 they would incur, but they're not being paid. And should 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:31.600 the league pay prospects to participate in the draft. My 0:21:31.640 --> 0:21:35.240 opinion is yes, I mean why not? Does it not 0:21:35.480 --> 0:21:38.280 sell a product? Are they not selling the NFL Draft? 0:21:39.119 --> 0:21:42.280 And does the NFL not make money? And the networks 0:21:42.320 --> 0:21:44.879 don't they make money off of the broadcast of the draft. 0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:48.560 I think that they should pay the prospects to come. 0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:51.439 And would that change the mind of a young man 0:21:51.600 --> 0:21:55.280 like travel Lawrence. Maybe not, maybe not. Maybe he wants 0:21:55.359 --> 0:21:58.760 to spend that day showing the appreciation for the people 0:21:58.800 --> 0:22:02.080 that got them there. And I totally get that, totally 0:22:02.160 --> 0:22:05.640 get that, because if you can spend time at such 0:22:05.680 --> 0:22:07.720 a special moment with your family and friends and the 0:22:07.800 --> 0:22:10.639 people that got you there, why would you want to 0:22:10.680 --> 0:22:12.680 do something different and spend it with a bunch of 0:22:12.760 --> 0:22:14.440 people that you don't know, just so that maybe you 0:22:14.480 --> 0:22:17.480 could hug Roger Goodell. You have the photo op on stage. Look, 0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:19.720 I don't want a man hug Roger Goodell that dad. 0:22:19.920 --> 0:22:21.879 I mean for me, I'd rather spend it with family, 0:22:22.480 --> 0:22:25.879 and uh so good for Trevor. And another benefit of 0:22:26.000 --> 0:22:29.680 that too is that if he is in at Clemson 0:22:30.040 --> 0:22:33.200 for the draft spending it with family, then it's a 0:22:33.320 --> 0:22:37.800 very short plane ride from Jacksonville, Okay, to Clemson and 0:22:37.880 --> 0:22:41.600 then obviously my guess is the jet will be on 0:22:41.680 --> 0:22:45.439 the tarmac and Clemson and then after the pig has 0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:48.800 made hugs kisses, load up, some family come to Jacksonville, 0:22:49.040 --> 0:22:52.640 you know, so we'll see, we'll see. You know, it's 0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:55.680 one of those two who is was taglub with the 0:22:55.720 --> 0:23:00.800 commissioner when you were uh still Rose, I can't remember. 0:23:02.040 --> 0:23:07.840 I believe it was was Roselle, So that was it 0:23:08.000 --> 0:23:11.320 was rosel Yeah, so you know that because it was 0:23:11.400 --> 0:23:18.840 Jeff Lackman. Would you have gone though, like you select Jeff. 0:23:19.400 --> 0:23:22.240 This is before players even were a thing, and I 0:23:22.400 --> 0:23:26.480 probably would have gone just to go, just because I 0:23:26.720 --> 0:23:32.000 don't think that everybody was aware of where and what 0:23:32.160 --> 0:23:35.720
