Kevin, 13 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: the Giants are right at the end tire of their 14 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 1: offseason program. It's probably the most unique one you've been 15 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 1: a part of. I would imagine. Just tell us a 16 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:45,240 Speaker 1: little bit what it's what it's been like for the 17 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,160 Speaker 1: last few months. I mean, it's definitely different from the norm, 18 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: but you know, we were able to take advantage of it. 19 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: We got good working and we got great means. Our 20 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: coaches did an excellent job saying everything up where you know, 21 00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: this wasn't just a waste of time. It was great 22 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: work and we're definitely a lot far long than when 23 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: we started. Well, let's talk about that, because you've been 24 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: through a lot of different offenses, a lot of new 25 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: coaching staffs over the course of your career, but you're 26 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: able to kind of get used to the new systems 27 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: and coaches in person. What has it been like doing 28 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: that virtually this offseason? So good? Luckily we've been able 29 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: to do it, you know, you know, four days a week, 30 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: so we're around them a lot video wise, so we 31 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 1: definitely get a good hint of their personality and their 32 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: type of expectations of how things are going to be. 33 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: But it will be great to meet him in person 34 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: when late July. How do they meetings work, the virtual ones? 35 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: Will they show video on the screen as you're talking 36 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: to you? Is that something separatist? How does it work mechanically? Oh? Yeah, 37 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: a lot of you know, face to face you know, 38 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: talk you know with the other old alignement, the coaches, 39 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: you know, whatever group we're in, and um, you know, 40 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: you get to see some video and talk through it 41 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: and you know it's the best we can do. Right now, 42 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: What has it been like working with Mark Colombo. He's 43 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: been great. You know. Um he's obviously worked with a 44 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,559 Speaker 1: lot of good oldline and online coaches as a career, 45 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, I like his energy. He's passionate, 46 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: and I think we're ready to get to work now. 47 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: I met him in person at the airport coming back 48 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 1: from the combine and just having a casual conversation with them. 49 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 1: Use the word intense. I can tell that guy is intense. 50 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: Does that come through even just on a video conference call? 51 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 1: He knows there's no time to waste, and you know 52 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: he's not gonna He's gonna keep the energy up and 53 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: he's gonna get us going. How much of a feel 54 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: can you get for really what this offense Kevin is 55 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: going to look like just by seeing the playbook on 56 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 1: paper on a video screen as opposed to actually doing 57 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: get on the field. How much can you tell just 58 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: from meetings in and installation in a classroom? I mean, 59 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:40,399 Speaker 1: you know, from the offensive playbook, you know it. We'll 60 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: be diverse, but I'll be real interesting once we all 61 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 1: get in the room. See, you know what our personnel 62 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: that we currently have does well, you know, especially when 63 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: we get out on the field. You know, we'll figure 64 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: that out. Now. How much of a challenge is that 65 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: going to be? Because usually you would have figured that 66 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: out maybe a month ago when you're an O, T, A. S. 67 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: But now you're not gonna be able to figure out 68 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: until you get to the end of why and training camp. 69 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: How does that change? Do you think the timing and 70 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: the pace of what training camp is going to be like? 71 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,119 Speaker 1: Where normally that's like your third installation, right it would 72 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: have been the third time you're doing it on the field, 73 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: but this year is gonna be your first time. You know, 74 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: I think it's a challenge, but I think we have 75 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: the type of guys and coaches on this team that, 76 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: you know, we're just gonna embrace it and we're not 77 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: gonna worry about what we've missed. We're he's gonna move 78 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: forward and figure it out. Does it help that you 79 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: have some or a decent amount at least of the 80 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: same guys that are on your line from last year 81 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 1: coming back? So while it's a new system, a new coach, 82 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: you guys have worked together before, so you kind of 83 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: have an idea of how you want to play. Oh yeah, 84 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: you know, anytime you know alignment, get to work more together. 85 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: Having guys return, that's big. You know, we know each 86 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 1: other's personalities, we know the things we do well, and 87 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: you know, even though the offense and system is changing, 88 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 1: it's you know, we'll be able to figure out real quick. 89 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: How have you guys tried to build chemistry with each 90 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 1: other even though you're not with each other in person. 91 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: You know, you try to do some zoom meetings, like 92 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: you try to hang out as a group couple of times. 93 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: You know, it is tough because we're all spread across 94 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: the country, and but you know, you do the best 95 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,119 Speaker 1: you can, and you know, I think it's all gonna 96 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: fall into place real quick as soon as we get back. 97 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: When you look at the playbook, are we looking at 98 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: a lot of power stuff, a lot of man blocking scheme, 99 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: more inside outside zone. What's your feel for some of 100 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: the stuff we might see once you do get on 101 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 1: the field. You know, the way we did it, I 102 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 1: think we have a very diverse playbook and kind of 103 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: like we were saying earlier, you know, we're going to 104 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: figure out what our group can do well with the 105 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 1: personnel we have. It could be anything right now, and 106 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 1: we'll hone in as we go, does it remind you 107 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: of any offenses that you've been in prior, because, as 108 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: we talked about before, when you were in Cleveland, you 109 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: were in a bunch of different offenses. Yeah. Um, I 110 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: mean I think you know, a lot of offense in 111 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: the NFL they have a lost same plays that just 112 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: all depends on what the coordinator likes to call and 113 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 1: how you know, he pictures things. So once again, you know, 114 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: we'll figure that out. How different is the language from 115 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: what you guys use last year to to the system 116 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: this year? I'd say language wise, it is a different 117 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: you know, in different system of calls and whatnot. But 118 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: just like anything, you know, we've been able to work 119 00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: over with the video and I think we're making some 120 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 1: good progress. Now. You've also you know we're talking about 121 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 1: Mark Colombo, but you've also been in meetings with Jason Garrett, 122 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator. What's been your early impressions of him? 123 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: I like him a lot. You know, he seems like 124 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 1: a great guy. He puts great energy. He uh, you know, 125 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: when the offense is together, he has a great focus 126 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:23,919 Speaker 1: and getting us, you know, to the point of what 127 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: the meeting is. So, you know, great first impressions. How 128 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: about Joe Judge from what I can tell and my 129 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: brief interactions with them before they kicked us all out 130 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: of the building. Uh, very attention to detail type of guy. 131 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: Is that the few you get from him in the 132 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: meetings as well? Yes? Focused, you know, we're very he 133 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: knows where he's trying to take this team. He's gonna 134 00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 1: make sure he emphasizes that. And you know that's great. 135 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: You know, I think that's what you want to head 136 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 1: coach and can't wait to, you know, experience it all 137 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: in person. Yeah, you've mentioned a couple of times, and 138 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: so was Joe Judge trying to make your scheme and 139 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: your play book relying on what the players can do, 140 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: which is obviously a smart thing to do. You want 141 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: to base things around your players. Something else to Joe 142 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,159 Speaker 1: just talked about has been changing what you do each 143 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: week based on opponent. So one week the offense may 144 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:13,880 Speaker 1: look like one thing. The next week, if you're playing 145 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,239 Speaker 1: at different defense, it might look like something very different. 146 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: You're a veteran, you've been in the league for a 147 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: long time, so what's the challenge when you do maybe 148 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: have a lot of changes week to week in an 149 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: offense based on the opponent you're going to play. Just 150 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 1: rely on experience, you know. It's just like you just 151 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: never know. You know, the coaches have a way to 152 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: attack one week that might change for the next week. 153 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: It might be a play you haven't ran in a 154 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: couple of weeks. You just always had to be on 155 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: top of your over bawl knowledge of the game in 156 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: your plays, and you know that will take care of 157 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,880 Speaker 1: it right there. How much have you been showing some 158 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,919 Speaker 1: of the stuff that Garrett did in Dallas and you 159 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: know they were a run first operation then, I know, 160 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: as an offensive lineman you must love that runpower first 161 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: play action. Off of that, have you looked at a 162 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: lot of the stuff that that he did down there 163 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 1: with Zeke and the Cowboys as a basis for some 164 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: of the stuff you're gonna be doing up here. Let 165 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: me throwing on a little bit, you know, to see 166 00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: like what the you know, designs and whatnot might be um. 167 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: But you know they made an emphasis you know we're 168 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: gonna install this, but they wanted to show stuff we 169 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: may have done the past, to show us doing things 170 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: and whatnot. No, that's smart. You have a bunch of 171 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,080 Speaker 1: hookies in your room, Kevin, I want to ask you 172 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: about them. Uh First, your first round pick, Andrew Thomas 173 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: will be out there competing for an offensive tackle spot. 174 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: Your impressions working with him, overall impressions, you know, he's smart, 175 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, I know he's working hard off the field, 176 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: but he's been also getting the stuff in the meetings. 177 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: So you know, that's a good start. You know, that's 178 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: really all you can do. You can come and physically 179 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: and mentally prepared, and that's the best start you could have. 180 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 1: You know, I interacted with him briefly at the combine 181 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: and he seemed like a very mature, serious guy, and 182 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: he seemed like a guy that would fit in really 183 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: well in an offensive line room. Yeah, I think so. 184 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna take this seriously, and you know, 185 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: I think he wants to be good. So that's the 186 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 1: great starting spot. How about Matt part from Yukon Big? 187 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: He's real big, But I think it's just like anything, 188 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: you know. I think THO was working a lot of 189 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: rookies and I think, you know, with you know that 190 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: rookie meting time, they're coming in there aware they know 191 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: a lot of detail, and that's good, you know, that's 192 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: you know what you have to do. You have to 193 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: know what you're doing when we get out there. And 194 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: then finally, Shane Lemu when I talked to him the 195 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: day he got drafted, that guy had more energy than 196 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: I knew what to do with. He was all fired up, 197 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 1: and he just seems like that type a blue collar 198 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: guy that would have fit into a lot of those 199 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: great Giants offensive lines in past years. I mean that's great, 200 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: Like energy will take you very fondest league. On top 201 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: of that, I know he's working hard and he wants 202 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: to be good too, just like all of them. So 203 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: you know, that's a great start. Again, have you guys 204 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,760 Speaker 1: talked at all about like who's gonna play what position? 205 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: Or is just basically just get the scheme and everyone 206 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: learns everything and then once you get on the field 207 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: you can get a pot out. I think our biggest 208 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: so because is, you know, we just gotta make sure 209 00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,319 Speaker 1: everyone knows like kind of what we're doing. We know 210 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 1: because we haven't been able to work out the field. 211 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: Training camp is gonna you know, it's gonna come at 212 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: us quickly. So I think the focuses everyone needs to 213 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: know what to do because we're not gonna have a 214 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: lot of time. You know, we want to, you know, 215 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: try to stay ahead of the game and you know, 216 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: take advantage and get out on that field. How about 217 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: working out? We know Kevin that you are a workout king. 218 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: You love being in the weight room. It's what you do. 219 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: How have you managed to stay in shape with the 220 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,800 Speaker 1: pandemic and some of the rules and quarantine that are 221 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: out there. Unluckily, I had a room in my house 222 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: that I cleaned that I was able to get some 223 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: equipment and whatnot and there so even though it's not 224 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: the same is having a full gym or whatnot, you know, 225 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: I was able to at least stay active and uh, 226 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 1: you know, get some good working. Luckily, the gyms are 227 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: open now up here in Wisconsin, and you know I 228 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 1: can get my normal schedule and training going again when 229 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: you guys get back. Is that gonna be a big 230 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: focus for the players to kind of slowly drill up 231 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: to where you start doing football action. You go back 232 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 1: to the lockout and the leven. There are a lot 233 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: of injuries that year, So is that gonna be something 234 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: that all you guys have to work on as you 235 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: lead up the camp to make sure you build up 236 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: properly to avoid some of those soft tissue injuries. I 237 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 1: think that's like every pleasure response ability. You know, there's 238 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: definitely we have to train ourselves to be in shape, 239 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: to be ready in various movements and whatnot. And then 240 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 1: you know that's definitely that's what you're supposed to do 241 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: during this time. Finally, just general excitement level, like what's 242 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: your feel from the team and you guys talking, you 243 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: meet and you know, Joe Judge has he in these rooms. 244 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 1: It's always aside when you've got a new coaching staff, 245 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: it's kind of a new start. Just kind of what's 246 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: been the general mood and the field in these meetings 247 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: with the new coaching staff and with Joe Judge. I mean, 248 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 1: I think overall everyone's excited. I think, you know, we're 249 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: right to put last year completely behind us, and you know, 250 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: I think we already have like we can't waste our 251 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: time about that. It's time about you know, building up 252 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 1: to this with this new staff, this new you know, experience, 253 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 1: and we're excited to get it going.

Um My understands 257 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: that he's a pretty inventive guy when it comes to teaching. Yeah, 258 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: I mean overall, you know, he's finding different ways, you know, 259 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: make sure we try no our new teammates and whatnot. 260 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 1: But um you know, he's a real football guy.
