One of them has the 43 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: microphone plugged into it with a little on off switch, 44 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: and the bigger box on the bottom has the headphone 45 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: piece plugged into it. See how I did that. And 46 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: on that box there's a dial the volume, which allows 47 00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 1: us to control our own volume in our heads. And 48 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: we know that now because Cedric and I both had 49 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: them turned way up and when the music started, Cedric 50 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: and I went whoa. And so now, Shannon, we can't 51 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: hear a thing you say because of that. That was 52 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: our fault. It's not important. No, it will be in 53 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: my mouth. No, certainly will be. So it's victory Tuesday, everybody. 54 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: How about that cowboys? About that? Um okay said, did 55 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: you see that coming? Uh? See what coming? Forty one 56 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: twenty one? I mean, you dominated them pretty much. And 57 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: I will say you feel free to agree or not. 58 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: But I thought, especially after treyvon Diggs ran that interception 59 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: back and in the third quarter, they their whole body 60 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: language said I think we're done. I mean yeah, I 61 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: mean we're everything was clicking last night for sure, and 62 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: I mean we felt it. We felt it back at 63 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: AT and T and Um, I mean I felt the 64 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: team fit off of it, and everybody made a play 65 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: when it was their time to including you. Yeah, I 66 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: didn't funny when it came to me. I felt like 67 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: everything slowed down for a second. But um, we practice 68 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: it so right over here where we're looking over our 69 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 1: left shoulder, right there, we practice it. And um, when 70 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: it happened, we celebrated like we do in practice. Now, 71 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: you made You were involved in a number of plays 72 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: that I want to talk about individually, and we'll talk 73 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 1: a little bit about the team aspect of it. But 74 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: the one play that um, not very many of you 75 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 1: could have even come close to making was the one 76 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: down the sideline that they ruled you out of bounds. 77 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: I think you were out of bounds actually, But um, 78 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: probably Dack's fault for not bringing the ball back into 79 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,279 Speaker 1: the field more a little, wasn't Uh. I mean it's 80 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: always there's never a quarterback's faulty quarterbacks now that's the 81 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: old quarterback end you're talking. Never quarterbacks fall. I probably 82 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: should just saved some more room on the sideline, you know, 83 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: and it would have been great catching the completion. You 84 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: had two defenders on you, if I recall, I'm not sure, 85 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: I haven't seen the player. Do you remember Shannon didn't 86 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 1: he have two on him? I don't remember. I think 87 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: I know the corner had pretty good coverage. I think 88 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: a safety came over. Anyway, you're in a crowd when 89 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: that ball's in the air, do you think, oh, I 90 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: got this? I mean, yeah, I'm looking at the ball 91 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 1: and just sign how I'm going to get it. And 92 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: when he got there, I man, I just put my 93 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: hands on it. Now, none of us in this room, 94 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: I'm going way out on the lamb. If I offend 95 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: anybody here, I'll apologize in advance. None of us in 96 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: this room is ever gonna know what it's like to 97 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: run down the sideline in a crowd and think, oh, yeah, 98 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get this. I just know have to know 99 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: what to keep in bounds, and I got this. What 100 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 1: does is there a thought process? Is it active going 101 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 1: through your mind about watch your toes, watch your leg 102 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 1: watch or is it just instinct by this time? Um, 103 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: it should be probably instinct by this time. I mean 104 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: every ball that I see, that's send my sitting I'm thinking, 105 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: obviously something to catch it. I don't really think people 106 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: run around and their heads was about to drop it. 107 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: But no, I feel like it's just preparation. I mean, 108 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: everybody's good at what they do, and mine just happened 109 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: to be running and catching. And when Dak threw the ball, 110 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: I knew it was coming to me, like I can 111 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: tell when he's looking, and I just put my hands 112 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: on it and squeeze it and hold on. And how 113 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: about your feet and your legs and when you're in 114 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: proximity to the sideline and all that. Are you thinking 115 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 1: about that? Uh? Yeah, I mean we practice it too. 116 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: We practiced the sideline until dragged with the receiver coaches, 117 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: and I mean it comes down to preparation. But at 118 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: the same time, you gotta, like I said, you gotta 119 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: save yourself on the sideline. But yeah, we definitely practiced it. 120 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about the touchdown now, your first 121 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: touchdown of the year. I haven't gone back and looked 122 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: at that play a lot, but several people said he 123 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,919 Speaker 1: was open earlier. You should have just thrown it to 124 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,919 Speaker 1: him earlier. Just made it more dramatic by waiting until 125 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: until the very end of making you work to come 126 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: open and walk us through that play. I mean, I'm 127 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 1: not gonna say the play call, but I feel like 128 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: I feel like the coverage that they just gave us 129 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: drew him to start with the left side, and once 130 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: it wasn't there, then it turns into the scrambled drill, 131 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: which we practiced also, And I'm not really sure. I 132 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: don't think I would have been open at the start 133 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 1: of the play just based off what the coverage was. 134 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: So when he did roll to my side, I knew 135 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 1: I was the only one over there and I just 136 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: had to figure out a way to get around Sleigh Shannon. 137 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: When just before you came in, Cedric and I were talking, 138 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: I said, Babe, Laffenberg said on the radio broadcast last night, 139 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: be sure you asked Cedric to talk about when they 140 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 1: asked him to block the defensive end, which I guess 141 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: was on the fourth and one, that if there was 142 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: a touchdown that they didn't give him. But that's another movie. 143 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: So you why are you blocking a defensive end? Who 144 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: schemed that up? Um? I mean, it's just a play call. 145 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: I mean, we only have Levin people. So so everybody's 146 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: gotta contri muting on that play. That's just um, I mean, 147 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: that's just my position's block and tight end. I think 148 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: the tight end has the other end and I have 149 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: to get this one, um and everybody else's pension down yep. 150 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: So I mean it's either I go block the end 151 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: or another tight end has to do it. So well 152 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: about another tight end do it? You're you're a wide receiver. 153 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: You don't need to be blocking defensive ends. I mean, 154 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: this is all in the scheme. They maybe could have 155 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: thought the pass was coming to slow down a little bit, 156 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: but I just blocked the time, I mean, blocked the end. 157 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: Do my job so that could get in. All right, 158 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: you talk about you're talking about scheme right now? Is 159 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of people are talking about 160 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: coach Moore, Kellen Moore, about how he's scheming things different. 161 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: Is he's really scheming things different this year or people 162 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: just noticing it or yea, y'all have you know these 163 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: big new extravagant packages or is it just that the 164 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: success on the field is drawing more attention to what 165 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: you guys are doing this year? Um? I mean no, 166 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: I don't I think he's prepared always the same. Um, 167 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: he's just he has all his weapons back. I feel like, 168 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: I mean, we were a pretty hurt team last year, 169 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: and I mean a lot of the positions, but probably 170 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: I think are the receivers with the only position that 171 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 1: wasn't hurting. So I feel like he just has all 172 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: his weapons back and we're running the offense to the 173 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: best of our ability, and just like he's calling it 174 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: to the best of his. And we were talking before 175 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 1: we went on the air about the versatility so many 176 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: of you can do so many things, and you've stepped 177 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: in in Michael Gallup's absence and it doesn't look like 178 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 1: there's anything missing. How do you stay ready for that? 179 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: I know you can talk about next man up, but 180 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:44,320 Speaker 1: talking about it and doing it or different things. I mean, shoot, 181 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 1: I go out there man practice. I feel like I've 182 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: been obviously here for a while going on year four, 183 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:53,559 Speaker 1: and everything you do out at practice is gonna relate 184 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: in the game. And when Cooper Gallup or CD like 185 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 1: can't go, then I have to be the one to go. 186 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: And that's the role that I played for I mean 187 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 1: a short amount of time, and then I got my 188 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: opportunity but just like when Gallup comes back, if he's 189 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: the one to go in and he plays and he 190 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: gets tired, that I'm gonna be ready to go once again. 191 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: And I feel like that's the group that we've built 192 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 1: with what CD, Noah, Coop, Me and MG, that we 193 00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,199 Speaker 1: all can go at any position at any time. And 194 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: I feel like that's what makes our Receiving Corps different. 195 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: You mentioned those guys, the Receiving Corps receivers, Brad. I 196 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: don't know if you know this, but receivers have been 197 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: known to be very boisterous and flamboyant. I'd read that, yes, 198 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: I'd read that flamboyant. I'd read that, yes. But this group, man, 199 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:49,359 Speaker 1: you're really quiet and soft spoken, and so is Amari, 200 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,839 Speaker 1: and so is MG, and so is Noah and CD. 201 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,679 Speaker 1: Do you guys talk trash out on the field or 202 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: you you guys just are y'all as quiet as you 203 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: are in public? On the field, I mean, I feel 204 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: like we more so joke and talk trash to each other, 205 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: and like that's the fun part of it. The world 206 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 1: play like with the dvs out of practice, but um no, yeah, 207 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: and I don't think off the field, none of us 208 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,640 Speaker 1: are just loud, like outgoing people. Like everybody's pretty chilled, 209 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: even just chilling at their own house because we saw, 210 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 1: you know, if you get coop routed up like you 211 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: know we saw on the Hard Knocks where you know, 212 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 1: he got after it with trey Von and then he 213 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: had to apologize because he said it was Dak's fault. 214 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 1: Like that's just worked up because I've ever seen him yet. 215 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 1: But you know you guys, are you guys just handle 216 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: your business and kind of going about about your day, right, Yeah, 217 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 1: I mean we're all pretty net old guys. Saw spoken. 218 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, we're still competitive athletes. 219 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: And I mean when the switch needs to be turned 220 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,240 Speaker 1: on the like get argumented, we definitely can do it 221 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: cold blood when the juices get flown in practice? Is 222 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: there a defensive background this team you particularly enjoy getting 223 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 1: into it with verbally? I mean me, I don't really 224 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: get into it verbally with any guy. I just something 225 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: ologies be like all right, you got it, and I 226 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: just go get rid of for the next play. But 227 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 1: just the guys that get right up at practice are 228 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: usually the funny guys in the locker room. And they're 229 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 1: usually the funny ones and then the mad Ones. So 230 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: and the mad Ones. All right, well, we have things 231 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 1: to uncover.

Uh? No, it was pretty smooth transition. Michael 253 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 1: wanted to eleven and I wanted one. Yeah you wanted one? Yeah, 254 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: I wanted one. Did you wear that at boise and 255 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: and but you didn't make him buy it? The eleven? No? 256 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: Oh man? Why he said, I'm because some cabbage on it. 257 00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: It wasn't I mean, it wasn't significant to me, a 258 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: significant to him. The one's more of my thing. One 259 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: looks good on you, by the way. It makes you 260 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: look really thin, though, but it makes you look fast, 261 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: you know what. Hey, Shannon, look, he's really thin, is either? Yeah? Anyway, Yeah, 262 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: he didn't need that, But but you could have. You 263 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: could have made something he wanted eleven, could have got 264 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 1: a trip or something out of the day, you know, 265 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: dinners for a month or something. Yeah. I'm gonna talk 266 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: to him about it. Hill good, very good. Um so um. 267 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 1: I mentioned as we were going into the break that 268 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:26,480 Speaker 1: I think I know why besides having a very calm demeanor, 269 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: why Cedric is kind of like he is. And so 270 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 1: I want to revisit your travelogue because I think it's 271 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: pretty interesting. Team captain at Boise sixth round pick here 272 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 1: and then missed basically two years because of injuries. And 273 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: I'm wondering if, as you are, like halfway through twenty 274 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: nineteen and you're missing your second straight year. You've been 275 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: a pro for two years, he haven't played yet, are 276 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: you thinking I'm wondering if this is ever gonna really happen. 277 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: I mean no, I never really thought to the point where, um, 278 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,239 Speaker 1: this isn't gonna be gonna happen. More so of like 279 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: when when am I gonna get the chance to do it? Um? 280 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:16,919 Speaker 1: And obviously injury was holding me back, and um, I 281 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: had to get stronger, and I feel like, honestly had 282 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 1: I feel like I had to mature at the position. 283 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 1: So I feel like injuries actually helped me slow down 284 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: until I was fully ready for the opportunity. And um, 285 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: once it came, Um, all the hard work paid off. 286 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: So your second year of being injured, they draft Gallop 287 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 1: b We was drafted the same well you drafted the 288 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 1: same year. Okay, so he's he's getting on the field, 289 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: and then two years ago here comes CD And did 290 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: you ever want to say, just excuse me while y'all 291 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 1: are spending these draft choices up, people, don't don't forget 292 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,919 Speaker 1: about old Cedric over here, right, I mean no, I 293 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: know the business. At the same time, the best ability 294 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 1: of availability, and I mean I wasn't available, so um, 295 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:00,880 Speaker 1: that would be wrong for me to look at them, 296 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 1: to not go find someone to play when I couldn't. 297 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 1: The other another one of the great available abilities besides 298 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 1: availability is the ability to change and learn. Could you 299 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: describe the ways you think you have improved as a 300 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: football player since the day you walked in here as 301 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: a rookie? The biggest one probably strength just being in 302 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,160 Speaker 1: the weight room and actually wanted to do it, because 303 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: the difference it's a difference between just going in there 304 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: and knocking out the required things, but actually doing it 305 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: with a purpose and seeing the changes that it was 306 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: doing for me. And then putting in the off the 307 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: field work that most of us didn't really get to 308 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: do during college. And um, I mean especially receiver. I 309 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 1: didn't really I didn't play it my whole life. I 310 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: started it when I got to college, so I was 311 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,960 Speaker 1: really actually just knew at the position. And I feel 312 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 1: like those two years definitely like watching guys come through 313 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 1: here like Bees Herns, Shoot Cooper, Amark Cooper came here, 314 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: just watching them guys work and I'm like, Okay, I 315 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 1: understand what this position takes and then just trying to 316 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: craft it in my own, my own way of what 317 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: my body can do. And you were a quarterback in 318 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: high school, right, yes, So what was that conversation like 319 00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: going into college did you have when you were recruited? 320 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: Did they recruit you as a quarterback? Did they want 321 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: you to switch the receiver? What were those conversations like, uh, yeah, 322 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 1: actually well, I mean I went to junior college straight 323 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: out of high school, signed as a quarterback and was 324 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: probably going to be the quarterback of the team that year, 325 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: but um I switched. I think like two weeks before 326 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: the season, I was like, I just want to play receiver. 327 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 1: Wait that was your idea? Yeah, I want to tell 328 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: I wanted to talk to my coach, coach Mirando. I 329 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: want to talk to him, and I was just like, 330 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 1: I think I want to play receiver and he was like, 331 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 1: what this close to the season and I was like yeah, 332 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,399 Speaker 1: and he was like, okay, we'll give it a shot. 333 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,159 Speaker 1: And then I think my first year receiver, I was 334 00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 1: like two yards shy of a thousand at duco so 335 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: and he was like from there at that point on, 336 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: he was like, yeah, you're pretty good at this. Let's 337 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: let's work for it. And I meant, is history, very 338 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: few high level competitive athletes are begging out of playing quarterback. 339 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: Why what what made you do that? Um? I mean 340 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: kinda just the um, like the overall quarterback in school 341 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: didn't really it wasn't really messitioned like let's do all 342 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 1: this school work and played quarterback a quarterback as a 343 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: full time job. And then also, um, I wanted to 344 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,159 Speaker 1: play baseball at junior college and throwing the football and 345 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 1: throwing the baseball was it was getting tough on the shoulder. 346 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:38,719 Speaker 1: Were you a pitcher? I played short and then closed pitch, Yes, so, um. 347 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: Were you as good a baseball player as a football player? 348 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: I think so yes. Um. The only thing that really 349 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: held me back from baseball is I didn't know I 350 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: needed contact to Like my sophomore year high school, wow wow, 351 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 1: But but then you but you were still playing baseball 352 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: when you when you got contacts. Yes. Uh did anyone 353 00:21:57,280 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: ever mention to you that baseball players last a lot 354 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: longer than football players and almost never get hit? Uh? Yeah, 355 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: I heard it from my dad probably. What did he say? 356 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 1: What was the were those conversations? I mean he was 357 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: just like, I mean he ever really told me that 358 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: he wanted me to play baseball. But I could tell 359 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: because I mean he battled through injuries when he played, 360 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 1: and he was just like, I mean, you're gonna get 361 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: a lot more bang for your buck and play longer 362 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: if you choose to swing swing the bat. And I 363 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:25,960 Speaker 1: was just like, okay, But in the back of my head, 364 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 1: I'm like, I want to do what you're doing. Could 365 00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,880 Speaker 1: could you hit a curb? Uh? I mean I could 366 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 1: get it in play where I would be fast enough 367 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: to get the first how's the how's the old arm? Still? 368 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: Can you still wing it? Yeah? I think I think 369 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: I can still wing it. I think I got a 370 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: little We were doing a little fun day in there 371 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: as a team, and I think I got like eighty 372 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: four on this phenomena or something like that without throwing 373 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: it in a couple of years. I still got a 374 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: little in there. Well, I was not not exactly not 375 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: throwing it, because I believe you were one for two 376 00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: passing the ball last year. Is that right? Um? When 377 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,800 Speaker 1: the last year you threw the ball today? Touchdown? I 378 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:02,360 Speaker 1: think I threw it through Dak and then I threw 379 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 1: one the TP, so I think I was two for two. Yeah, 380 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: two for two, So you can still throw a little bit. Yeah, 381 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: oh yeah, tho touchdowns? Uh no, I don't think No, 382 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: Tony's wasn't the only decks on Oh that's what made 383 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 1: me think. Yeah, that's what made you think of that. Um, 384 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: so do you ever are you still a baseball fan? Uh? Yeah? 385 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: I mean I like to go to the baseball games. 386 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: You don't watch them playoffs or World Series or play 387 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,440 Speaker 1: I mean every sport. I watched you in the playoffs 388 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: because that's the best, that's the best time to watch sports. 389 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: So that's usually when I catch it because I don't 390 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: know how many games they play, like one hundred and 391 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,239 Speaker 1: sixty two, one hundred and sixty two. I don't think 392 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 1: I could watch one hundred and sixty two. Yeah, I 393 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 1: broadcast that for three years. That's a long year. It's 394 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: a serious commitment right there. Who'd you grew up a 395 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: fan of baseball team I mean overall Yankees fan, but 396 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 1: based off of where I lived. I mean I was 397 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 1: an Oakland A's fan once and then I was a 398 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: Pirates fan so um, and then overall just the Yankees, 399 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: but obviously location wise, I was my team. And how 400 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: about football, I was always the biggest fan of Minnesota, 401 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: the purple uniforms and then Randy Moss. That was my 402 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 1: favorite team growing up. So I want to go back 403 00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: to when you switch in junior college from quarterback to 404 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: receiver and at that point, are you thinking that you're 405 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,840 Speaker 1: going to play in the NFL someday? I mean, yeah, 406 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 1: that was I mean at that moment, that was the 407 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: decision I had to make when my first year ended, 408 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 1: like okay, are you gonna stick with football or baseball? 409 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: Because now it's really time to choose. And I mean 410 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: I had a lot of advice from my coach at 411 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: the time, that's pretty much who was helping me. And 412 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: he was like, do you A lot of people don't 413 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 1: do what you just did their first year playing this position. 414 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 1: So at that moment on I mean, that's the dream 415 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,360 Speaker 1: I was chasing. Yes, And now I want to talk 416 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: about punt returning because there isn't anything in baseball like 417 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: stead and looking up into the sky for a ball 418 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,199 Speaker 1: to drop out. Well, people run at you. What what 419 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: was the genesis of your deciding to do that? Um? 420 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 1: I mean more so, opportunity was not really me like, 421 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:17,960 Speaker 1: um oh, I don't want to do this or I 422 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: don't want to like coaches like do you do point returning? 423 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 1: I was just like, yeah, I do it. I've never 424 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: done it. Had you ever caught a punt at that point? 425 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: And oh yeah, I mean I caught like two at 426 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: juco Um, like two or three at Boise Um. But um, 427 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 1: I mean I try. I try to do it whenever 428 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 1: it's asking me. It's fun. It's another opportunity for a touch, 429 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: and I think it does relate kind of the baseball, 430 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: especially when the sun's out there, looking for a football 431 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: is a lot easier looking for a baseball. Oh, fair right, 432 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: that's that's fair enough. So John Fossil told us reporters 433 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: something interesting today, uh and that because he was asked, 434 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: how do you decide when Cedric is going to return 435 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: to punt and when CD is gonna return to punt? 436 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 1: And he said, well, most of the time they decide 437 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 1: that he leaves it up to you guys. So how 438 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 1: does that work? Who takes the lead? How do you 439 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:15,520 Speaker 1: decide who's gonna return a given punt? I think a 440 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: lot of things going to it, obviously, like the flow 441 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: of the game. Like if CD's in a lot and tired, 442 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 1: then that's a no brainer, right, you just go get it. 443 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 1: But if we're both fresh, and it's really who wants, 444 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:26,959 Speaker 1: like who really wants to go out there and do 445 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 1: it or who? Just because I mean flow of the game, 446 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,119 Speaker 1: you're like I want to be in the game. I'm like, oh, 447 00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: let me get it. And if he feels like he 448 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: needs to be a part of the game, he'll be like, 449 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: oh let me get it. So it's pretty it's not 450 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,280 Speaker 1: really we're not really fighting for it out there. It's 451 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 1: usually you want it, sure, or I'll take it. But 452 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: there have to be type of what I just heard 453 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: was there are times when you would both like to 454 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: go out and do it. Oh yeah, I mean we 455 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 1: both always want the ball in our hand. I feel 456 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 1: like that's the rock paper scissors, rock paper scissors over here? 457 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 1: But who, I mean, which of you? If you both 458 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: want it, who gets to decide. I mean usually one 459 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,479 Speaker 1: of us. I mean whoever says at first like, oh, 460 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 1: you got it. It doesn't it mean it's no, it's 461 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,920 Speaker 1: no big debate about it. But we usually know who's 462 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: gonna do it way before the down even comes up, 463 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: like before the defense goes out there, it's like, you 464 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,720 Speaker 1: got it this series, Sure, yeah, I got it, or 465 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: now you can take it. You have siblings, yes, a 466 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 1: lot of them. Did it go like that when you 467 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: were trying to decide things growing up? You want this? Yes? Sure, no, 468 00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 1: you could have it. No, it's okay, that's fine. I 469 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: mean I'm the older siblings, so it was usually asking 470 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,719 Speaker 1: me like, oh can I have this? I was always 471 00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: having to say sure, yeah, they were gonna have to 472 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 1: hear it, but nah, it's it's definitely much harder with 473 00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 1: siblings than just friends. Okay, More on choosing who returns 474 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,880 Speaker 1: the punch and other goodies with our special guest Cedric 475 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: Wilson on the Cowboys Hour this evening.

Um. 493 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: And that's why I asked you at the beginning, did 494 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 1: you see that coming? Because that was pretty convincing, But 495 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 1: the whole thing didn't feel like just another regular season game. 496 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 1: Maybe it was because you had the first two on 497 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: the road and now you're home. Maybe it was the 498 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: first time the place has been full since two years ago. 499 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: Although there were fans I don't know what the exact 500 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: reason was, and I have a sneaking suspicion that it 501 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 1: might have something to do with what it feels like 502 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 1: you're building as a team, and so I'm interested in 503 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: your thoughts about all of them. I think, especially after 504 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: the Tampa week and we're coming off that and like 505 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: how we lost, I feel like the team just looked 506 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: at one another and was like, Okay, I mean, if 507 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: this is defended Super Bowl team and how we just 508 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 1: played them, why not us? Why why can't we go 509 00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: out there and put our best foot for it every week? 510 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: And I mean Coach Priest's momentum every week. He said, 511 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna go out to LA it's gonna be their 512 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,000 Speaker 1: home opening. They're gonna have all the energy, they're coming 513 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: off a win, and it's up to us to take 514 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,720 Speaker 1: that momentum. And we came out of that dog fight 515 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: because that was a great team and that was a 516 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: great win to transition to this week as a conference 517 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: game on Monday night at our home. I mean, it 518 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 1: wasn't a better scenery to do it. And I feel 519 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: like everything was hitting on all cylinders. Obviously, there was 520 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: ups and downs in the games, what's gonna happen. But 521 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: I feel like that was not the best that we 522 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,080 Speaker 1: could play, But that was the best we've played so far, 523 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: did it? Does it feel like there's something brewing? Just 524 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: too early to say that. Yeah, I mean it's too 525 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,000 Speaker 1: early to say that. And I mean we just gotta 526 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 1: go one week at a time. We know where we're 527 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,000 Speaker 1: going for But at the same time, I mean, what 528 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 1: we have seventeen stepping stones before we even get to 529 00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:49,719 Speaker 1: the dance. No, I'm not putting in there yet. I'm not. 530 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to. I mean, I'm a huge believer 531 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:55,920 Speaker 1: in the journey. Enjoy the journey, right. The energy just 532 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: being around the team, you know, being on the field 533 00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: on game day, warm up, the locker room, the vibe 534 00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 1: you know, even on the road feels different this year. 535 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:08,399 Speaker 1: There's a lot of young you got some dogs on defense. Now, 536 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 1: you got a lot of young guys that don't that 537 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 1: don't know they're you know, they don't know what's what, 538 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: they don't know, right. It just to me, it feels 539 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 1: the energy feels different. Is there a different feel with 540 00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 1: the energy this year as opposed to previous years? I 541 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 1: mean yes, because I feel like it was built out 542 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: in April when everybody was coming together, all the draft 543 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: picks that just got drafted, and everybody was coming in 544 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 1: because I think this is probably the biggest percentage of 545 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,279 Speaker 1: our team being new this year, So everybody had to 546 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: bond and get to know each other. And once we 547 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,839 Speaker 1: did that over the breaks of people coming from other 548 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 1: teams that we played against, it was like, Oh, I 549 00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,959 Speaker 1: remember this game, talking trash in the locker room about 550 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 1: the previous games. I felt that that built like a 551 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 1: built our team to go out there and fight for 552 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 1: one another because we I mean, we fight every day 553 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: against each other. And I feel like that was the 554 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: biggest difference though of like he said, this is a 555 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:08,400 Speaker 1: young team. I feel like we're young from top to bottom. 556 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:10,560 Speaker 1: And the previous years it was we had a lot 557 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 1: of vets that were teaching the way of the cowboy way, 558 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: and that obviously rubbed off on the older guys. Now, 559 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: but and everybody's just messing together and going in one direction. 560 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,400 Speaker 1: It's interesting to me to hear you say that that 561 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: after the Tampa game, you kind of looked at each 562 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,160 Speaker 1: other and said, oh, wait, we can do this, because 563 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: I think that's what a lot of fans think they 564 00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:34,160 Speaker 1: see the game and they say, oh wait, they can 565 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: play with them, And sometimes it's surprising to me to 566 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,439 Speaker 1: find out that you guys are thinking the same thing, 567 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,720 Speaker 1: having the same reaction when you come off the field 568 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: with that team. Yes, I mean it's because like last year, 569 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 1: we were getting in games that we thought like, oh 570 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 1: we could we could definitely get this done, but we 571 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: were just shorthanded or getting like all the injuries. Like 572 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 1: I said, with the team that we knew we had 573 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,919 Speaker 1: last year, I feel like was pretty much the same team. 574 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 1: I mean, I've like defense obviously changed, but offensive while 575 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 1: we had the same team and we felt like we 576 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,120 Speaker 1: could have did it last year. So it all worked 577 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 1: together that we had a whole another offseason to work 578 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: together and then come out here and do it this year. 579 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: So two things about coming off this game are interesting 580 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: to me. I'd like to hear your thoughts. One is 581 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 1: I think I might have mentioned this to you. Coach 582 00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: McCarthy was asked about how you teach a team to 583 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: handle success because it is you guys on your side 584 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: of the ball, as you said, you most of you 585 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,960 Speaker 1: have been together for a good period of time. The 586 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: other side of the ball. They're still jelling and a 587 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,239 Speaker 1: bunch of them, as you pointed out, our rookies, and 588 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 1: they've never done this at this level. What is there 589 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 1: to learn about how even this league is and how 590 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,760 Speaker 1: to stay on an even keel no matter how difficult 591 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 1: the loss or how exhilarating the win. Well, how do 592 00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:00,960 Speaker 1: you engage the importance of that? It's very obviously to 593 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: stay neutral. Um, we have the but like the mental 594 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:08,280 Speaker 1: health meeting every day, just stay neutral in every aspect 595 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 1: of life in general. You have that every day, a 596 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,000 Speaker 1: mental health meeting now every week, once every week, Yeah, 597 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 1: once a week, so very cool. I feel like if 598 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 1: you can be neutral in your day to day life, 599 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,080 Speaker 1: football will come naturally because we've all been doing it 600 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 1: for so long. And I feel like most of the 601 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 1: people in the NFL obviously we're stars at their college, 602 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 1: so you had at least some regulation of being in 603 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: the spotlight on a smaller scale. But we all help 604 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:35,880 Speaker 1: each other. I feel like as a team, especially with 605 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: the receivers, we don't really do much. We're a calm 606 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 1: group of guys. You leave work, you probably most of 607 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 1: us are going home and then come back to work 608 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 1: and laughing with each other, and I do feel like 609 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 1: there's not really much outside noise that gets to us. 610 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:51,280 Speaker 1: And I feel like that's every other position too as well. Shannon, 611 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,799 Speaker 1: You're right that this is unlike any other group of 612 00:37:53,840 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 1: receivers that anybody's ever don't I don't believe that these 613 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: guys exist like that, but it's true. But here's a 614 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:03,480 Speaker 1: bunch of them all under one roof. Right, it's astounding 615 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 1: lab All right, here's the other thing I want to 616 00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:09,720 Speaker 1: ask you, Um, you have a noon game Sunday against 617 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 1: a team, by the way, that currently leads the league 618 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 1: in every defensive category. They're averaging giving up ten points 619 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 1: a game. So, whether it was Texas Stadium or AT 620 00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:26,080 Speaker 1: and T Stadium, the greatest how can I be diplomatic 621 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: about saying this, The greatest energy that comes from the 622 00:38:30,640 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 1: fans is rarely seen at noon games. Very diplomatic, Thank 623 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 1: you very much. Appreciate that. Do you do you even 624 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:44,359 Speaker 1: anticipate that? What do you what do you think that'll 625 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 1: be like coming off Monday night? I mean, you've had 626 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 1: two out of three primetime games and now you're gonna 627 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: have a noon game, you know, and most most people 628 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 1: still are trying to decide between a bloody marry and 629 00:38:55,760 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 1: a mimosa you know around here. I think I can't 630 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 1: really remember a time that I've been to AT and 631 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:06,080 Speaker 1: T Stadium, obviously through COVID the situation of the season 632 00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 1: last year, but other than that, I don't think I've 633 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: been there and it's been dull um obviously that's hard. 634 00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 1: I mean, it's easy for me to say I want 635 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 1: to never happened. Yeah, yeah, I went to Boise State, 636 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 1: and I feel like to the preseason crowds at AT 637 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: and T or bigger than what I played in front of. 638 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,879 Speaker 1: So I don't really think it's a big drop off 639 00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:27,560 Speaker 1: because rather there's one person in there or one hundred 640 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 1: thousand our fans Yale every time we do something good 641 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 1: and whenever every time we need them to Yale. Very optimistic, yea, 642 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,759 Speaker 1: very you know your lipstick, God's ears?

Thanks for turning 645 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,160 Speaker 1: this over to me for just a second. And oh, 646 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 1: I want you to take all the time you want 647 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: to entertain myself for a minute, said, I want to 648 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,439 Speaker 1: do something that we did last week with bash them 649 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 1: and it's this is what Wikipedia says, and you tell 650 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 1: me whether this it is true or not. I'll run 651 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 1: through a few facts and then you let me know 652 00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 1: if Wikipedia is right, because we know that everything that's 653 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 1: on the Internet is true these days. Right. Probably not? 654 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 1: All right? So Wikipedia says that you attended White Station 655 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: High School in Memphis, Tennessee. Fat Okay. You played quarterback 656 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 1: for the football team in high school, Yes, yea, and 657 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 1: as a senior you were named the starter, registering seven 658 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty one yards passing, seven passing touchdowns, two 659 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty eight rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns, and 660 00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 1: five interceptions in my senior year. That's what it is. 661 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: I don't like those stats, are right, all right? College? 662 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:46,920 Speaker 1: You attended Coffeeville Community College in Kansas. In Kansas, Kansas. 663 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,800 Speaker 1: How'd you get to Coffeeville? It was, I mean, asked 664 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,680 Speaker 1: a pretty crazy story, um leaving high school. I mean, 665 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: obviously I was a big recruit from in the city 666 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,239 Speaker 1: and I didn't make a test score with eight CT 667 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 1: and didn't even really know about the SATs. I should 668 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 1: have gave that a shot, but it didn't really get 669 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 1: the past the tests and all the way to get 670 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 1: qualified for college. And I think I was out with 671 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 1: my friends, like playing like seven on seven pickup or something, 672 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 1: and I got a call from the coach at Coffeeville 673 00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:16,239 Speaker 1: and he was like, you want to come out to 674 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 1: Coffeeld to play football? And I was like, I mean, 675 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 1: I ain't got another choice, so yeah, I'll come out there. 676 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 1: Were you recruited by Memphis and or Tennessee? I was not, No, 677 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 1: what's wrong with those people? Hey? That's that's that's their scheme. 678 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: Miss big miss says while earn it, you earned junior 679 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:39,240 Speaker 1: college All American honors there, Yes, that's true. Okay. Twenty sixteen, 680 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 1: you transferred to Boise State University. Yes, all right. As 681 00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 1: a junior, you appeared in twelve games and you started five. Right. 682 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 1: Sounds about right? All right? Hold on, okay, had you 683 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: seen a Boise game on television before you went there? No, 684 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,879 Speaker 1: what'd you think the first time you saw the blue 685 00:41:56,920 --> 00:41:59,840 Speaker 1: field in person? I mean, I've seen it on the 686 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: NCAA football game, but in person, and I was when 687 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:06,399 Speaker 1: I was when in person, I was like, I'm really 688 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 1: on the blue turf. I was like, this is this 689 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,840 Speaker 1: looks pretty cool? And then the crowd is it's not 690 00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: it's not overpacked like capacity, but they're they're allowed. And 691 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 1: I was on the field doing that, and then just 692 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 1: being around the guys like for the recruiting visit and 693 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 1: all that, I was like, I think that's where I 694 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,839 Speaker 1: want to be, even though it's far from home.

I'm wondering, like after a 735 00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:53,080 Speaker 1: game yesterday, the the adrenaline going in me as a fan. 736 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:57,399 Speaker 1: I know, I was at the game and after the game, 737 00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 1: I couldn't sleep all night. Seriously, I've been up all night, 738 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,320 Speaker 1: have not been asleep yet. Uh at you as a player? 739 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 1: Uh does the adrenaline still keep pumping after the game? 740 00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:10,760 Speaker 1: Are you gonna have a hard time going to sleep? 741 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 1: Stuff like that, they'll say the truth, the drilling is 742 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 1: probably gone. The body ache started to come after the game. Um, 743 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 1: they feel a little better with a win and usually 744 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 1: hurts a little more with a loss. But yeah, the 745 00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:26,919 Speaker 1: drenaling's gone pretty much. Um, because tomorrow, I mean we're 746 00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,879 Speaker 1: looking forward to the Panthers. Yeah. By the by the way, 747 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: the people like the trainers, the equipment man, the pr staff. 748 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,879 Speaker 1: They also didn't sleep all night. You couldn't see Joe 749 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: Trehan's face when you said I hadn't been to bed 750 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 1: all night and Joe, yeah, so me too. So so 751 00:48:44,800 --> 00:48:48,399 Speaker 1: what we're just grinding on? Get you some sleep? Bill? Yeah, yeah, 752 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:51,279 Speaker 1: no kidding. Cheer down, Bill, go ahead, go ahead. Hey, 753 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,280 Speaker 1: my name is Corey. I was at the game also, 754 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:54,960 Speaker 1: so that was a great win. So I felt like 755 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:58,480 Speaker 1: the crowd was awesome. But my question is, Um, what 756 00:48:58,640 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 1: do you feel is one of the biggest contributors contributing 757 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:05,200 Speaker 1: factors for the high rate of boys state players being 758 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 1: drafted and the product productivity in the NFL. Like you 759 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 1: know you, Kellen Tank Crawford. I think Avery Wilson, Um 760 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:22,200 Speaker 1: Willilson from Atlanta Vanderhae, see right. I feel like for 761 00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:26,239 Speaker 1: most of the people that won, of course, like the 762 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 1: guys like me and the Marcus like landed there from JUCO. 763 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 1: The way they accept JUCO guys and like pretty much 764 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 1: transform us to get ready for the not like for 765 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 1: the profession of football, like the business side of it. 766 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 1: They do a great job because coming out of JUCO 767 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:43,320 Speaker 1: is a different total, different mindset than being in the 768 00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 1: Division one football facility. And I feel like they definitely 769 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 1: taught me and obviously Tank how to be professional. Rather 770 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna play football or not, you're gonna come to 771 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:55,160 Speaker 1: Boys to get an education. And like most of the 772 00:49:55,200 --> 00:49:57,320 Speaker 1: guys that obviously didn't get to make it to the NFL, 773 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 1: they pretty much have an easy job in Boys because 774 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:02,360 Speaker 1: they know how to talk to someone or they have 775 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 1: a work ethic to do it. And then for all 776 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,440 Speaker 1: the other guys that spent three or four years in 777 00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,080 Speaker 1: the program, I can only imagine what they learned in 778 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:12,840 Speaker 1: the time being out there. But just the overall school 779 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,920 Speaker 1: pretty much gets people ready for everyday life, not just 780 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:19,400 Speaker 1: football program. Can you give us a little more detail 781 00:50:19,480 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 1: about the transition from junior college to Boise? What kind 782 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 1: of an eye opener that was? I feel like I 783 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:31,279 Speaker 1: tell this story a lot, but it was. It was hard, 784 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,360 Speaker 1: probably the first semester, I mean, coming from Memphis, Tennessee 785 00:50:34,520 --> 00:50:37,799 Speaker 1: to Coffeeville if there was nothing, But I mean I 786 00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:40,200 Speaker 1: went with my best friend, so it made the best 787 00:50:40,200 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: out of that. And then to move all the way 788 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 1: across the country with I didn't know anyone, I didn't 789 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,439 Speaker 1: I didn't really I've never been. I mean, I've lived 790 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:50,840 Speaker 1: in California before, but I didn't really know how California 791 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:55,040 Speaker 1: people acted, Washington people like everybody on that side of 792 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 1: the world. So I had to It was a big 793 00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:00,840 Speaker 1: culture shock the first semester. And then I just remember 794 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 1: calling my mom every day like how did I come 795 00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:04,840 Speaker 1: all the way out here? And you really let me 796 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 1: come all the way out here and what she said, 797 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:09,960 Speaker 1: and she was like, you chose this, so you better 798 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:13,480 Speaker 1: make the best of your opportunity. And after that, I mean, 799 00:51:13,520 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 1: I became more open to talking to people because of something. 800 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:17,840 Speaker 1: I feel like I've had the same group of friends. 801 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 1: I've usually met like one friend at each level of football. 802 00:51:21,040 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 1: So I started just opening up talking to people, talking 803 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:25,719 Speaker 1: to people in my class, talking to people in the 804 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:29,120 Speaker 1: community of Boise. So that was one of the things 805 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,800 Speaker 1: that I feel like I needed to go to Boise 806 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 1: to do to open up and actually talk to people 807 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:35,799 Speaker 1: and be able to have a conversation and not just 808 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 1: talk to my friends or family members. And the transition 809 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,399 Speaker 1: was hard, but much needed. I would have to say. 810 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:48,720 Speaker 1: Interesting was it was it less difficult going from Boise 811 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 1: to the NFL here because of the nature of that transition, 812 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:57,320 Speaker 1: do you think, Yeah, I'm Boise. From Boise to the 813 00:51:57,400 --> 00:52:02,160 Speaker 1: league was much easier transition than Field to Boise because one, 814 00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:04,799 Speaker 1: I mean I was in front of I went out 815 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,840 Speaker 1: to a city that I didn't know anyone, had to 816 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:11,399 Speaker 1: go to school, go to ball and succeed. And then 817 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 1: when I came here, I only had ball, so I 818 00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:16,640 Speaker 1: didn't have to stress about school and in the big 819 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 1: city that I didn't know anybody. And once again, but 820 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:20,920 Speaker 1: obviously there's much more to do in Dallas than there 821 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:24,240 Speaker 1: is in Boise. Um, and then open up, talk to people, 822 00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:30,440 Speaker 1: learn stuff, and just keep being successful. Like interesting, so interesting, Yes, sir, 823 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:38,560 Speaker 1: go ahead the long walking. Yeah, gave himself a long walk. Yeah, hey, 824 00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:41,080 Speaker 1: says congrats on the win. Also, I was at the 825 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,719 Speaker 1: game yesterday. We got three in a row. Um, what's 826 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 1: your day? Man? Sorry? Um? Quick question? Last week being 827 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,880 Speaker 1: a divisional game, do you guys have any different approaches 828 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 1: you take when preparing Like in the media where you're 829 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: hearing with Philly getting their custom T shirts or whatever, 830 00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 1: is there any difference when you're preparing for a game 831 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:04,920 Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia or in New York versus Carolina. I 832 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:07,200 Speaker 1: mean to me, no, I didn't even know anything about 833 00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:08,600 Speaker 1: the T shirts or I still don't know who you're 834 00:53:08,600 --> 00:53:11,879 Speaker 1: talking about with the T shirts. But obviously we know, 835 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,359 Speaker 1: like in the profession that we do, we know what 836 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 1: division games mean. You win all of those, that's what 837 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:20,399 Speaker 1: the objective is. But there I don't feel like there's 838 00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:24,040 Speaker 1: no any different preparation from our side of it. Obviously, 839 00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 1: the media will make it bigger, a bigger deal for 840 00:53:27,320 --> 00:53:31,000 Speaker 1: the division games because they are more important, But for us, 841 00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 1: we're trying to win every game that we go out 842 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,480 Speaker 1: there and play. Thank you, Shannon. Do you find that 843 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 1: interesting that clearly nobody on the coaching staff, or in 844 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:42,839 Speaker 1: the equipment room or anything else made a big deal 845 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 1: of it to the player. So the Eagles new head coach, 846 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 1: Thursday maybe last week, came to his daily media briefing 847 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:59,359 Speaker 1: wearing a T shirt that he had given them all 848 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 1: out to all teams that said beat Dallas with the 849 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: logo helmet logos of both teams. It's just a little 850 00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 1: unusual for a for a professional head coach to be 851 00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:15,880 Speaker 1: doing with a bunch of grown men, and uh, nobody, 852 00:54:16,080 --> 00:54:18,200 Speaker 1: but so clearly nobody made an issue of it to 853 00:54:18,239 --> 00:54:21,359 Speaker 1: you guys. I mean No, I didn't know anything about it, 854 00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 1: but I mean, I'm sure for them, for him, I mean, 855 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 1: you do everything you do to get your team prepared 856 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 1: for a big game or routed up, So to them 857 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 1: it was probably like one of those things. I'm sure. 858 00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,399 Speaker 1: I mean, like we have like in Boom two hats 859 00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:34,120 Speaker 1: that we've came up with for special teams that means 860 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 1: stuff to us. So I'm not sure if he made 861 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:39,239 Speaker 1: that to like spark something, or if he made that 862 00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 1: just to get their team routed up. I'm not sounds 863 00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 1: like said had some real good media training from our prs. 864 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 1: Sounds that way to me too. Trey Hans should be proud, Yeah, 865 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 1: sounds said, did good. I know nothing about nothing about 866 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:55,200 Speaker 1: ever heard of this T shirt of what you speak? 867 00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:58,359 Speaker 1: I know, I know nothing, but I bet they won't. 868 00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:01,800 Speaker 1: I'll bet that coach where a beat Dallas T shirt 869 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 1: next time when it's him again. A question for you, 870 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:08,880 Speaker 1: since nobody's like, what's your favorite part of the game 871 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 1: winning that's the best part of your winning? Do you 872 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:17,719 Speaker 1: enjoy do you enjoy practice? Do you enjoy game day? 873 00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 1: Do you enjoy the preparation? Do you enjoy pregame? Like? 874 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,880 Speaker 1: What all what's what's your favorite parts of you know, 875 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:34,080 Speaker 1: outside of winning obviously, UM, let's see, probably probably when 876 00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 1: practice pays off. When you realize like, oh I did 877 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:38,640 Speaker 1: that in practicing and I just did it in a game, 878 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:42,400 Speaker 1: that's probably the biggest relief. Um, that's probably my biggest 879 00:55:42,600 --> 00:55:45,080 Speaker 1: That's probably my best part of the game. So it 880 00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 1: is learning, executing in practice and then seeing the payoff 881 00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:50,480 Speaker 1: in the game. Yeah, seeing something that you did in 882 00:55:50,600 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 1: practice and it didn't work, so then you try to 883 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:56,200 Speaker 1: little something different and it works. And has there been 884 00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:59,360 Speaker 1: any kind of magic around the way Kellen's play calling 885 00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 1: has seemed to almost everything he touches turns into yards? 886 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,920 Speaker 1: Right now? Do you do? You guys just wait stand 887 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 1: there and say, okay, bring us bring us our next 888 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:13,760 Speaker 1: two first downs right now? Please. I think Kellen prepares 889 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,919 Speaker 1: so um, I'm pretty sure he probably prepared for seven 890 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:21,839 Speaker 1: hundred yard game and only got four. So probably to him, 891 00:56:21,840 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 1: he was successful. It looked pretty successful to the rest 892 00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:27,799 Speaker 1: of us. Thank you for on a short week, for 893 00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,880 Speaker 1: being with us on Victory Tuesday.
