Speaker 1: I'm young, I got a lot of energy, a lot

11
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,839

Speaker 1: all in, soaking in from the vets, soaking in from

13
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: the coaches, and just just be a sponge pronto. One

14
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: of your teammates, Um, Aaron Davids Ship, what you can

15
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,640

16
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: saw he was coming up here, I got excited. He's

17
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 1: a very smart player. You know, stands plays, he he

18
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: can replays before the snap happens, and I mean it

19
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: helps having a guy like him in the back there

20
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 1: in the backfield. Well, it's just similarities between Kirby Smarts,

21
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 1: just the man you don't want competeous, the main similarities

22
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: of that. Just when you come out here, it's time

23
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: to go to work. We can have fun, but to

24
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: keep the main thing the main thing, and be where

25
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:29,559
Speaker 1: your feet are because we got here to work get better,

26
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: and that's what we're gonna do every day. And it's

27
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: it's no no slacks off. You don't getting no passes.

28
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: The coach is gonna be on you from the first

29
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 1: wiston to the last one. What's the biggest challenge or

30
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: adjustment for you so far? I think the biggest challenge

31
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: has just been getting in the playbook, making sure I

32
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: understand all the adjustments we have to make, um learning

33
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: the terminology because everywhere you go it's a little different terminology.

34
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: So I just want to be speaking the same language

35
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: as the coaches. Rents away. They're gonna start playing some

36
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: classical music for your practices. I might have to go

37
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: talk to somebody about that. Uh. I don't know if

38
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: that would be a great time for classical music, but

39
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: I mean i'd be down with it right. Oh yes,

40
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: listen to it before games to kind of get yourself

41
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: sumped up, not pumped up. Classical music is more of

42
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:29,639
Speaker 1: my after the game. Monday's Mondays now, but just relaxed,

43
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: give my mind, relaxed my mind, get my mind off things.

44
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,119
Speaker 1: How did you get into that? In elementary school fifth grade,

45
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: I started playing the cello and just it's stuck with me.

46
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: I love the sound of will instruments, So I just

47
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: fell in love with classical music. So you got a

48
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: pretty good talent for the rookie show. Oh yeah, let's go.

49
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: I forgot about it, but yeah, I forget tell of here,

53
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,280

54
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: don't like the sound of it, but I dabbled in

55
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: a couple of instruments. Dalvin Thomlinson came here last year

56
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: as sort of the renaissance man, the guy who played

57
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: his instruments, all that stuff. Maybe you two can get

58
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: together in defensive meeting rooms. Yeah, I think I see

59
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,040
