We can't 0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:22.520 say everything because at. 0:07:22.440 --> 0:07:25.800 Least there's some communication there is at unlikely Luca. But 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:28.960 you know, okay, I don't want to talk about don't 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:29.400 want to talk. 0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:31.400 At least those teams. That was a good move. That 0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:31.880 was a good move. 0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:36.800 Stop it don't even close to that. Keep going let's 0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:37.760 I want. 0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:41.800 To update the fans who haven't been keeping a lot tabs. 0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:44.600 Let's run down the list. What do staff look like. 0:07:44.600 --> 0:07:47.240 Right now as we have this conversation, and I'll let 0:07:47.280 --> 0:07:49.520 you know who's confirmed who's not confirmed. So we know 0:07:49.600 --> 0:07:52.840 Brian Schartenheimer's new head coach. Offensive coordinator is going to 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:56.720 be Clayton Adams from the cart News. Matt Eberflus reuniting 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.600 with the Cowboys, this time as the defensive coordinator. Former 0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:03.720 Cowboy his linebackers coaching, defensive passing game coordinator, special teams 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:06.920 coordinator replacing Bones Fossil who went to the Tennessee Titans 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:11.120 is Nick Sorenson, who is bringing that Kyle Shanahan tea 0:08:11.200 --> 0:08:15.120 into the building. I can't get enough of that. Yes, sir, Titans, 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:22.640 we were able to retain lond Well's massive for three 0:08:22.920 --> 0:08:25.040 massive resigning, especially and since the last. 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:38.200 Time we were on the air, they've also resigned Will McLay. 0:08:31.480 --> 0:08:35.560 The biggest free agent on the Cowboys. We did it, secured, 0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.520 we did it everybody, absolutely so Will McClay is still 0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:41.679 in the building. Lowell still in the building. Those two 0:08:41.800 --> 0:08:45.240 names are massive, especially considering you lost Al Harris to 0:08:45.280 --> 0:08:46.640 the Chicago Bears. 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:49.400 How do we anti clap? Do we poo? 0:08:52.960 --> 0:08:57.760 Yeah, that's that's a pain him fossil for for me, those. 0:08:57.559 --> 0:08:59.480 Are But congratulate him on the upgrade. 0:08:59.679 --> 0:09:00.600 Yeah, sure, for sure. 0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:03.480 Harris goes up there. He's defensive passing game coordinator and 0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:05.439 you see it. And I spoke with Al and it 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:07.559 is obviously not just to move up in title, but 0:09:07.640 --> 0:09:10.800 he'll have a little bit more responsibility than even with 0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:13.240 the title dictates. But keep in mind he wasn't able 0:09:13.320 --> 0:09:17.840 to technically coordinate cord anything here in Dallas, So now 0:09:17.920 --> 0:09:19.599 he gets to do that there, which gives him the 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:23.079 step towards defensive, which then gives him the step to 0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:25.040 becoming a head coach. So shouts out to l Harris 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:28.720 go up there and kick some buns. Assistant wide receivers 0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:31.760 coach were still looking for the primary wide receivers coach 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:35.160 lost Robert Prince to the Miami Dolphins. No names have 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:38.360 been floated yet, but every day that passes along, new 0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:41.559 you know, positional coaches come into the fold. Hell, just 0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:44.760 yesterday we had some more so, but we do have 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:49.440 a reported interview Taekwan Underwood, formerly of the New England Patriots, 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:52.080 as the assistant white receivers coach. We'll see if that lands, 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:54.120 but the expectation is that it will keep an eye. 0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:57.360 On that best hair and coaching staff. Yeah, you would 0:09:57.400 --> 0:09:58.320 easily win the best. 0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:00.839 Yeah, we be. 0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:05.200 So how can you hire an assistant before having before. 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:09.000 Having lists unless you know who's going to who's going 0:10:09.080 --> 0:10:12.600 to be and we just don't know yet we uh huh. 0:10:13.400 --> 0:10:14.319 So there you go. 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.160 As we talked about on the show before when people 0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:18.680 were arguing front runners, how do you know what. 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:19.280 Is the front runner? 0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:22.600 Because the super coach would be the one who would 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:26.720 most likely most likely who's working alongside him. Right, Sometimes 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:28.800 I would imagine, yea, if I'm gonna be working. 0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:33.320 Unless you're I don't know, offensive coordinator has a really 0:10:33.320 --> 0:10:37.520 good grasp on what he wants to do. Fair No, 0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:38.679 I'm not here to judge. 0:10:38.760 --> 0:10:39.720 That would be kind of a weird. 0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:42.319 Like you're an assistant, but we know where you're not 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:44.679 ready to be an actual. 0:10:44.440 --> 0:10:45.319 Wide receivers coach. 0:10:45.360 --> 0:10:47.240 So here's the I would think that their main receiver 0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:49.240 coach would have a say in who's going to be 0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:49.880 his assistant. 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:51.240 It's possible that. 0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:52.320 We got Willbi play man. 0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:53.080 What are you worried about. 0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:54.480 What are you worried about? 0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:57.960 You got what you wanted possible. They already know, all right, 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:00.840 So we're waiting for wide receivers coach to running backs 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:03.800 coach to land No, we got running backs coach. So 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.360 running backs coach planned it yesterday. As matter of fact. 0:11:06.440 --> 0:11:09.679 Derek Foster a right, Derek Foster, formerly of the New 0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:13.880 Orleans Saints. Also his tenure extended back to Los Angeles 0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:18.600 Chargers with the peak Austin Eckler days. So you basically 0:11:18.679 --> 0:11:20.360 see what he's going to bring to the table. He 0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:23.800 likes running backs who can also do damage as receivers 0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:26.040 out of the backfield. Alvin Kamara, Austin Eckler, Do we 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:28.480 have one of those right now? 0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:29.800 Yeah, he's on the roster. 0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:31.640 I know where your face is going. 0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:37.280 So there's that guy that's on the roster. Guy that 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:40.240 were a dues in college. So my old my old 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:41.760 teammate wasn't willing to take a pay cut. 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:43.760 I'm not mad at Not only was. 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:45.400 He not willing to take a pay cut, they threw 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:46.000 him a bag. 0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:47.200 Well he's making a back. 0:11:47.360 --> 0:11:48.760 Well he was making a bag. You talk about the 0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:51.320 sharp yes, so he was making a bag and reports 0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:54.760 are that they the bag an eight hundred thousand dollars 0:11:54.920 --> 0:12:01.600 rais a year. So not only college, they more than 0:12:01.679 --> 0:12:04.080 doubled his salary to stay. 0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:05.520 It just threw money at the problem. 0:12:05.760 --> 0:12:08.800 Samples in Oregon also got a raise seven hundred. Yeah, 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:10.959 so I'm sorry, what was it? 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:11.240 Yeah? 0:12:12.000 --> 0:12:13.600 Yeah, a position coach college. 0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:17.480 Yes, he's making m yeah one point five yeah, one 0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:17.880 point five. 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:19.880 Well no, no, no, I think it's too eight hundred. 0:12:20.480 --> 0:12:24.640 I think salary is church church choice, choice, our choice. 0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:25.120 That's not true. 0:12:25.760 --> 0:12:27.120 What what's not true? What's the number? 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:29.000 It's over nine, it's over nice. 0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:31.040 So he still got the pay raise he did, So 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:33.160 that's my point. Not only did he not take a packup, 0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:35.280 but he gott raised on a bigger bag to stay. 0:12:35.720 --> 0:12:38.520 So he got an eight hundred thousand dollars raise. 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:41.079 No ready making, he was ready making. 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.880 He's already making seven, he's making more. 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:47.720 He's making now I am and he has a bier shot. 0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:50.320 So yeah, changing my professional. 0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:51.920 You got to. 0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:55.000 I haven't done it yet. 0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:58.720 So about this, he doesn't have to recruit anymore. 0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:03.079 Oh and he doesn't have those in general now, in 0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:06.640 general at Texas, you don't have to recruit it's like 0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:07.520 how much. 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:09.480 Okay, yeah, we'll give you this. You want to come in. 0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:12.240 Oh you're talking n il nil stuff. 0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:14.840 Now, it's just like spoke like a true Baylor. Well 0:13:14.920 --> 0:13:16.520 so it was a little salty back there. 0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:22.120 Yeah, So Derek Foster is budget, right, Derek Foster. Derrek 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:24.839 Foster is not exactly consolation prize. So good stuff there 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.400 waiting for quarterbacks coaching land that's vacant. Now flipping to 0:13:28.440 --> 0:13:30.200 the defensive side of the ball, that started to come 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:33.520 together a lot more quickly because ebra flues got into 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:36.280 the building before Clayton Adams got into the building. So 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:39.040 defensive line Aaron Whitecott and from the Jets love it. 0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:41.120 The Jets tried everything to try to keep him in 0:13:41.280 --> 0:13:44.079 New York. Go and look at you know, New York 0:13:44.200 --> 0:13:47.040 Jets Nation, and you'll see that they were pissed that 0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:49.199 they lost Whitecott. And so you should be really thrilled 0:13:49.320 --> 0:13:57.240 that you have Whitecott, absolutely Whitecott on black history. Dave Ganzi. 0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:00.439 Ganzi is back in the bid and a lot of 0:14:00.480 --> 0:14:03.200 Cowboys fans don't know that Bragunzi actually had a short 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:06.520 stay with the Cowboys as an assistant. Yeah, he did 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:09.600 a year. Yeah about about a season. He did double duty. 0:14:09.640 --> 0:14:12.600 He was assistant for both the offense and the defense, 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:15.160 so that kind of helped launch his coaching career. So 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:17.760 he's back. He spent time with iber Flus in Chicago 0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:21.280 as well as did defensive pass game coordinator Andrew I'm sir, 0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:24.200 Andre Curtis. He'll be in the building more or less 0:14:24.640 --> 0:14:27.720 working with David Overstreet, who is the cornerbacks coach. But 0:14:27.880 --> 0:14:30.680 look at Curtis and Overstreet. It's kind of like a 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:32.960 two for to fill with Al Harris, which you lose 0:14:33.000 --> 0:14:35.920 with Al Harris. Right. Harris was defensive backs coach but 0:14:36.000 --> 0:14:38.720 also assistant head coach, so you're getting double duties there, 0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:42.720 But you know you still have other vacancies assistant offensive line, 0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:45.720 primary offensive line. We know that Clayton Adams is going 0:14:45.800 --> 0:14:48.280 to have a heavy hand in the offensive line coaching, 0:14:48.360 --> 0:14:50.120 but it sounds like, as we have this conversation, the 0:14:50.160 --> 0:14:53.960 Cowboys still want technically an offensive line coach, someone designated 0:14:54.240 --> 0:14:56.920 that as well, waiting for that to Lamb, waiting for 0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:58.600 assistant defensive line to Lamb. 0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:00.560 And you hear a lot of names floating around for 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:03.360 that position in particular. I don't think that there's anything 0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:04.240 that's nothing. 0:15:04.040 --> 0:15:07.480 That's nailed down. But again, if you're following how now, boys, 0:15:07.600 --> 0:15:10.640 hiring has has been going since Schottenheimer was named. I 0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:13.960 mean every other day, sometimes multiple days in a row, 0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:16.680 a new hiring is landing. Two three, new interviews. 0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:17.560 Trying to knock it all out. 0:15:17.560 --> 0:15:20.760 They're really trying to knock it out. So still some vacancies. 0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:23.040 We know the strength and conditioning team is going to 0:15:23.080 --> 0:15:25.720 stay in the building. Shouts out to Harold Nash, Kendall Smith, 0:15:25.920 --> 0:15:29.400 Cedric Smith, very well deserved Brown Well. 0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:31.520 That one's confirmed confirmed drinking conditions. 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:36.360 Absolutely absolutely, so vacancies are being filled quickly. One, two, three, 0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:40.040 four of us got about six or seven maybe eight, 0:15:40.960 --> 0:15:44.880 not counting the quality control guys. But I suspect what 0:15:44.960 --> 0:15:48.760 are we talking Tuesday? I suspend talking quality control. Yeah, 0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:51.960 I suspect by Monday, I'm going to put in your 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:52.840 resume real quick. 0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:54.800 I'm going to put I. 0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:56.280 Predict by the end of this week most of the 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:58.960 staff will be finalized. Okay, I'm pulling an Isaiah. 0:15:59.200 --> 0:16:01.720 How do we feel at it right now? Let's just 0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:06.240 start from a general standpoint. Yes, defensive side of the ball. Matti, 0:16:06.240 --> 0:16:09.040 you've reflus is your head coach. Excuse me, your defensive coordinator. 0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:11.920 Of course, he was the head coach in Chicago prior, 0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:14.560 but was also the linebackers coach in Dallas from twenty 0:16:14.600 --> 0:16:17.320 eleven to twenty seventeen. He's been around the building, returns 0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:19.880 to the building at a higher clip than what he 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:21.840 had initially when he was here in Dallas. 0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:24.560 I thought, at least out of the two guys that 0:16:24.680 --> 0:16:25.240 I really. 0:16:25.120 --> 0:16:28.320 Wanted Robert Sala or Matti eb Refluse, this is a 0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:30.360 win for Dallas on the defensive side. 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:30.520 Of the ball. 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:35.120 It's going to be hard to keep them, at least 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:38.440 the expectations straight because of what you've had from Dan Quinn, 0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:41.920 what you had last year as a turnaround from Mike 0:16:42.000 --> 0:16:43.480 Zimmer from the beginning of the year to the end 0:16:43.480 --> 0:16:46.240 of the year. I'm interested to see what the expectations are. 0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:47.440 But Josh, what do you think about the h. 0:16:47.720 --> 0:16:49.520 That's going to be tough on the players regardless because 0:16:49.560 --> 0:16:52.320 you have the third year in a row of defensive 0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:55.480 coordinator engines. Yeah, I think that's tough just to begin with, 0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:56.480 it happened from. 0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:58.360 Twenty nineteen, twenty twenty, and twenty twenty one. 0:16:58.880 --> 0:17:02.760 I mean, yeah, actually, happens. It happens. But my thing 0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:05.359 here is it was Tommy that kind of like quelled 0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:10.720 my concerns at that point exactly. Well, he was talking about, 0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:13.320 you know, he's not a great head coach candidate. He 0:17:13.440 --> 0:17:15.920 really wasn't, And especially at the Bears, you saw that 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:18.840 time management was an issue and basically everything outside of 0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:20.960 the defense was an issue for Matt Eberfluss. When I 0:17:21.000 --> 0:17:23.960 saw that name flying around just before it was reported, 0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:26.600 I was like, all right, that sounds like a good thing. 0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:28.639 My thing is like, are the players going to be 0:17:28.720 --> 0:17:32.160 able to connect and relate and buy in to yet 0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:36.320 another defensive scheme? To me, outside looking in, it seems 0:17:36.359 --> 0:17:39.399 like the right choice to make because you know, you 0:17:39.520 --> 0:17:41.600 probably don't bring Mike Zimmer back because he wants to 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:46.440 retire so reportedly supposedly, So either way, you're gonna have 0:17:46.680 --> 0:17:48.920 a tough decision to make. I think at least with 0:17:49.000 --> 0:17:50.920 this and at least with this one, you have a 0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:57.200 defensive coordinator that is coaching well on defense intoday's football league. 0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:02.040 That to me is most telling about this Higher? Is 0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:03.399 it my favorite higher of the bunch? 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:04.840
