1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 1: Good afternoon. UM, you know, just starting off, I know 2 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:08,560 Speaker 1: coach has coaches addressed everything with you, Norris, and you know, 3 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 1: the only thing I'll say is, just like all the 4 00:00:10,920 --> 00:00:13,160 Speaker 1: guys that have played for me, UM, you know, I 5 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:15,200 Speaker 1: wish you nothing but the best, and you know it's 6 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: the same for Jack two. Um moving on to this week, 7 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 1: I think this is an offense that you see each 8 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: and every week. They're getting better and the young receivers 9 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 1: are playing fast, and the quarterbacks doing a good job 10 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: managing the game and dealing the ball and getting it 11 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: out of his hand. And um, you know twenty six 12 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 1: in the backfield and is a pretty dynamic uh player 13 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,159 Speaker 1: out of the backfield as well. And UM, you know 14 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: we all know, um A p Is is really really 15 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 1: a special back and so it's gonna be a great challenge. 16 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: And UM, this our group of guys continue to run 17 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: two things to outstanding practices, and we're gonna keep stacking 18 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: those things, and UM we're gonna keep getting better each 19 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: each and every day and each and every meeting. And um, 20 00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: as as we kind of pushed forward to this weekend, 21 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 1: not having obviously feel Baker and Valentine have played a 22 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 1: lot all the season, but not having Jack Rabbit around, 23 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 1: could that do anything for their urgency? Like baby takeaway 24 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 1: a guy they could rely for a security blanket they 25 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: could rely on. UM. You know, I I think in 26 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: the meeting room it was, um, you know, let's move 27 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: and let's find a way to get better. And that's 28 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: what they did last week. And UM, I thought we 29 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,839 Speaker 1: played a better second half in the first half defensively, 30 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,839 Speaker 1: and UM, I thought we tightened some things up, and um, 31 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,839 Speaker 1: the guys are continuing to compete and work to get better. 32 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: You know, I said this like probably ten or eleven 33 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: weeks ago, that you know, we treated like going to 34 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 1: the doctor to get a prescription, and that that doesn't 35 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: change the way guys get better in this league is 36 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: intentional work. And your intentional work might be different than 37 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: the guy's intentional work. That's that's standing right next to you, 38 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: And the things you need to get better from a 39 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: skill set standpoint is different from the next guy. And 40 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: we got to coach each guy differently, and our players 41 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: have to attack their UM there are things that they 42 00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 1: need to get better at differently as well. So to 43 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: answer that, just it's just go to work and get better. 44 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 1: The things we need to get better at Baker in 45 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: the last few weeks. You know. I think it's just 46 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: a combination of UM, a young player starting to understand 47 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: where's eyes need to be, UM being square at the 48 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: right times. And it really falls into what I was 49 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 1: saying UM with the last question, is just identifying the 50 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: things you need to get better at and having really 51 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: good intentional work UM to get better at him. And 52 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: And about two weeks ago, maybe two or three weeks ago, 53 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: I said it in the whole in front of the 54 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: whole defense. UM. It was a Friday practice and we 55 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: do some production things during the week and we we 56 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: put it up on the board as a defense. We 57 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: do that every week, every day actually, and UM, and 58 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,520 Speaker 1: he had just a great week. He had a really 59 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 1: good week of prep and it showed up on game 60 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: day and those kind of things stacking UM one rep 61 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: and practice act in one position, meeting and just for 62 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: rookies in this league, young players, first second, third year 63 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 1: players to develop their skill sets. I think I think 64 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: he's he's progressing in regards to that, and he's got 65 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: to continue to get better some things. Well, now he's 66 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: your number one wonder back, right, So how does How 67 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: do you think does his role change now? Uh? Nope, 68 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,800 Speaker 1: He's gonna keep doing the things he's been doing and 69 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 1: just continue to get better. Two things that when you 70 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: get better. Do you remember what week that was that 71 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: you're talking about? But I couldn't tell you that the 72 00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: actual week. I remember remember the meeting though. For sure 73 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: you look a film of Haskins. What what he's doing 74 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: now versus what the film that he put on tape 75 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 1: from when you played you guys, which is very uneven? 76 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: Of course? How is he better right now? What's he? Uh? 77 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: Very decisive with the ball, knows where he wants to go. 78 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: Is doing a good job of managing stuff? Um? I 79 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: think offensively, they're doing a nice job of um handing 80 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: the ball to twenty six. And they've always done a 81 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: great job in a run game of being creative and 82 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: pulling guys and jet motions and some of those kind 83 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: of things that mess with your eyes. They've always done 84 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: a great job with that. And um, they're doing a 85 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: nice job in protection, keep trying to keep him clean 86 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: and um he's just being decisive with the ball, and 87 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: UM got the young players around him. The young receivers 88 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: are getting better. Do you is there any values that's 89 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: film from the last time you played that there's I 90 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: think there's value off him. I really think there is. 91 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: I think there's there's always value to turn and tape 92 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: on and seeing maybe some of their thoughts on attacking 93 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,119 Speaker 1: us and some of the things that that they wanted 94 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: to do with him in the game when we played 95 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: him the first time. But then you also take into 96 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: account really the last six or seven games where they've 97 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: kind of got into their groove of the things that 98 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 1: that they're really trying to do offensively with the new coordinator.
