WEBVTT - The Dave Pasch Podcast - Budda Baker

0:00:03.800 --> 0:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Hey everybody, and welcome to another edition of the Dave

0:00:06.519 --> 0:00:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Pashe Podcast. I'm your host ESPN and Arizona Cardinals play

0:00:10.320 --> 0:00:13.680
<v Speaker 1>by play announcer Dave Pash. Our guest this week is

0:00:13.960 --> 0:00:17.480
<v Speaker 1>five time Pro Bowl safety and two time First Team

0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:21.120
<v Speaker 1>All Pro Buddha Baker. So the second time Buddha's been

0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:23.560
<v Speaker 1>on the Dave Pash Podcast. We had him way back

0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 1>in episode two in training camp back in twenty twenty one.

0:00:27.840 --> 0:00:30.960
<v Speaker 1>A lot has happened since then, and Buddha is continuing

0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:34.040
<v Speaker 1>to not only shine as a football player, but he's

0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:36.559
<v Speaker 1>one of the leaders of the Arizona Cardinals again in

0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:40.239
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty three. And among the many subjects we discussed

0:00:40.320 --> 0:00:43.559
<v Speaker 1>during the next twenty minutes of this podcast, it includes

0:00:43.840 --> 0:00:46.199
<v Speaker 1>what to expect from the team in terms of the

0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:49.080
<v Speaker 1>hallmarks of the Arizona Cardinals in twenty twenty.

0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:53.000
<v Speaker 2>Three, discipline, accountability, a team that's just going to play

0:00:53.360 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 2>very fast, a team that doesn't care about what anybody

0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:57.520
<v Speaker 2>else thinks.

0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:01.280
<v Speaker 1>Buddha and I also discussed preparation for the Washington Commanders.

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:04.360
<v Speaker 1>The weight that Buddha put on in the offseason is

0:01:04.400 --> 0:01:07.800
<v Speaker 1>part of his workout routine. We'll get his thoughts on

0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>some of the newcomers, like rookie Keetrell Clark, who has

0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:13.680

0:01:52.200 --> 0:01:57.520
<v Speaker 1>week on the Dave Pash Podcast. Well, Booto, it's great

0:01:57.520 --> 0:01:58.960
<v Speaker 1>to see you. First of all, Man, before we get

0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:01.200
<v Speaker 1>into camp and everything, how was your summer. Did you

0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:02.920
<v Speaker 1>get a chance to relax it all and kind of

0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>put last season behind you and all the changes and

0:02:07.040 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>move forward in your mind.

0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:11.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, you know, last year, especially for me,

0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:13.799
<v Speaker 2>I got you know, kind of injured a couple of

0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:16.520
<v Speaker 2>times high in good spring, you know, a couple of springs,

0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:20.520
<v Speaker 2>and then that Christmas game versus Tampa Bay, I you know,

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:24.480
<v Speaker 2>fractured my shoulders. So this off season I just solely

0:02:24.520 --> 0:02:27.360
<v Speaker 2>focused on getting my bodies as best as it could be,

0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:32.840
<v Speaker 2>one hundred percent stronger, faster, bigger, my mindset, everything just

0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:35.400
<v Speaker 2>you know, those type of things, just to get those better,

0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 2>kind of have tunnel vision, not really paying attention to

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:41.320
<v Speaker 2>being on any type of you know, media or any

0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:43.040
<v Speaker 2>of that. Just kind of just hanging out with my

0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:44.520
<v Speaker 2>daughter and working hard.

0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:45.520
<v Speaker 1>How old is she now?

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 2>She's one and a half turning two December, so yeah,

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:51.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, she's getting big, starting to walk a little bit, run,

0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:53.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, say words.

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:56.840
<v Speaker 1>I still remember it was I think the Chicago game

0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:00.520
<v Speaker 1>that you and I flew back together and you were

0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:02.840
<v Speaker 1>you were I think it was any moment at that

0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:07.800
<v Speaker 1>point right that, Yeah, exactly. Yeah, So congratulations, man, that's awesome.

0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. You've always been such an impressive guy. I

0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:14.400
<v Speaker 1>think the world got to really just get a sense

0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:16.560
<v Speaker 1>of what you're all about from Hard Knocks people that

0:03:16.639 --> 0:03:19.440
<v Speaker 1>maybe aren't around the team or haven't really heard you speak.

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Did you go back and watch it at all? Did

0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:22.560
<v Speaker 1>you see any of the episodes?

0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I saw a few of the episodes, you know,

0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:29.480
<v Speaker 2>maybe like four of them. You know, after that it

0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:30.840
<v Speaker 2>was kind of, you know, we kind of went on

0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:33.320
<v Speaker 2>a little losing streak. So for me personally, I just

0:03:33.720 --> 0:03:36.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, try to help as much as I can,

0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:40.119
<v Speaker 2>whether it's get the playbook right or you know, understanding

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:43.120
<v Speaker 2>certain things that the offenses are trying to do to us,

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 2>and you know try to you know, meet extra with

0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:48.320
<v Speaker 2>the guys and try to you know, fix those type

0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>of things.

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 3>So, yeah, I watched a few episodes.

0:03:51.400 --> 0:03:54.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean what stood out was your passion, your energy.

0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:54.920
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:59.160
<v Speaker 1>Obviously Monty and JG took note of that. They've talked

0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:02.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot about how they want the culture of this

0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:06.960
<v Speaker 1>team to be the embodiment, you know, of of Buddha Baker.

0:04:07.040 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 1>You know what you're all about, what what's the biggest

0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:13.080
<v Speaker 1>thing you've noticed going from the previous Not to bash

0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:15.000
<v Speaker 1>the previous regime, but just what are some of the

0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:17.960
<v Speaker 1>things that stood out about the new group MANI the

0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:20.920
<v Speaker 1>coaching staff that are a good fit for you.

0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:24.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, you know they they everything that they

0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:26.760
<v Speaker 2>say kind of aligns with you know, how I go

0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 2>about each and every day and that's you know, kind

0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.880
<v Speaker 2>of just getting better each and every day, you know,

0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:38.000
<v Speaker 2>working hard. The little details matter, you know, all the

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:40.560
<v Speaker 2>little things that you know we could have done better

0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:44.680
<v Speaker 2>in last year's season. I think that they're making, you know,

0:04:44.760 --> 0:04:47.719
<v Speaker 2>a point to for guys to understand, you know, the

0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:50.160
<v Speaker 2>little things and understand that you know, if if you're

0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:52.680
<v Speaker 2>not going to do these little things, then you know

0:04:52.720 --> 0:04:53.600
<v Speaker 2>you're not gonna be here.

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:58.839
<v Speaker 1>What about specifically technically about the defense? What are some

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.840
<v Speaker 1>of the things that are different that you have noticed

0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:02.240
<v Speaker 1>so far?

0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:06.520
<v Speaker 3>Technically, like you're talking about like scheme wise.

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, scheme and also what they're asking you to do,

0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:11.120
<v Speaker 1>like certain like when Colt McCoy was in here, he

0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:15.560
<v Speaker 1>talked about how he had for his entire football life.

0:05:15.600 --> 0:05:17.360
<v Speaker 1>I think it was his right foot was forward, his

0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:19.840
<v Speaker 1>left foot was back, and now they're asking him to

0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:22.360
<v Speaker 1>change it, Yeah, something that he had not done before.

0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:25.679
<v Speaker 1>Is there anything that you've experienced so far that's different

0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:27.960
<v Speaker 1>for you in terms of how you attack your position.

0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:31.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, you know, I don't really want to

0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:33.920
<v Speaker 2>say much about it, but at the end of the day,

0:05:33.960 --> 0:05:36.559
<v Speaker 2>you know, his scheme wise, I really like the scheme.

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.800
<v Speaker 2>I really liked the defense. I liked you know, the

0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:43.839
<v Speaker 2>intricate details that they put upon the players to understand

0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:47.280
<v Speaker 2>and know and you know, not just knowing it, but

0:05:47.880 --> 0:05:49.719
<v Speaker 2>no knowing it. That's what he, you know, kind of

0:05:49.839 --> 0:05:53.279
<v Speaker 2>preaches and talks about, and you know, those type of

0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:56.719
<v Speaker 2>things that are very set aligned with me because you

0:05:56.800 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 2>want to trust each and every person on the field,

0:05:59.080 --> 0:06:01.680
<v Speaker 2>and if they know it, you know, they it's kind

0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:03.840
<v Speaker 2>of iffy. If they know know it, that means they

0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:06.360
<v Speaker 2>know it one hundred percent. You guys have trust all

0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:09.480
<v Speaker 2>around the board, and you know, you play better football.

0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:12.080
<v Speaker 2>So just the little details of trusting each other and

0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:15.599
<v Speaker 2>trusting the defense and understanding the little intricate details that

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:20.719
<v Speaker 2>they have on each and every personnel based Nickel, you know, Penny,

0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:21.880
<v Speaker 2>all types of personnels.

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:25.640
<v Speaker 1>So people that watched the preseason games, do you think

0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 1>that maybe they'll be surprised when they see some of

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:31.599
<v Speaker 1>the things you guys do defensively starting week one?

0:06:32.000 --> 0:06:32.279
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:35.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean I definitely think so, just like you know,

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:37.520
<v Speaker 2>if we if when we watched film of other teams,

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:40.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, they're kind of kind of general offenses or

0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:44.440
<v Speaker 2>general general defenses. So there's you know, definitely a lot

0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 2>of details that you know, of course we didn't put

0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:49.800
<v Speaker 2>out in the preseason that you know people will see

0:06:49.920 --> 0:06:50.800
<v Speaker 2>come Sunday.

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:53.920
<v Speaker 1>So a month ago, month and a half, whatever it was,

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:56.480
<v Speaker 1>when there were some uncertainty at least maybe not in

0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:59.040
<v Speaker 1>your circle, but people on the outside weren't sure, you know,

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.760
<v Speaker 1>is Booty gonna be here? Because of the trade request,

0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:05.599
<v Speaker 1>you get your deal restructured. What specifically about the deal

0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:09.160
<v Speaker 1>made you happy that you were like, Okay, I'm I'm

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:10.440
<v Speaker 1>all in with the Cardinals.

0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:13.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, you know, for me personally, like I

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.200
<v Speaker 2>said this whole off season, I'm kind of just put

0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:18.520
<v Speaker 2>my head down and had tunnel vision and understood, you know,

0:07:18.600 --> 0:07:21.320
<v Speaker 2>what I can control, and what I can control was

0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:23.760
<v Speaker 2>the amount of work I put put in each and

0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:25.880
<v Speaker 2>every day. And uh, you know, I have a great

0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:29.040
<v Speaker 2>agent and David Mullageta athletes first where he was able

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:34.080
<v Speaker 2>to communicate with you know, Monty and you know, communicate

0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:37.200
<v Speaker 2>certain details that I could appreciate. So at the end

0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:39.280
<v Speaker 2>of the day. For me, it was my job to

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:41.680
<v Speaker 2>just lock in and hone in on what I can

0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.520
<v Speaker 2>do better for my body, for my mind and once,

0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:47.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, once training camp starts, once everything starts, I'll

0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:51.480
<v Speaker 2>be there. So that's what it was. And you know, personally,

0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:53.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm all in. You know, I'm always all in. If

0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:56.320
<v Speaker 2>you watch me play on defense, you watch me like

0:07:56.360 --> 0:07:58.560
<v Speaker 2>you guys said, I'll always be all in every single

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:00.240
<v Speaker 2>time I stepped foot on the football.

0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:05.320
<v Speaker 1>What about any differences that we'll see, you know, physically

0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:07.240
<v Speaker 1>with you. Is there anything you did in terms of

0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:12.080
<v Speaker 1>training or any area of your your off season work

0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:14.480
<v Speaker 1>out routine that you've changed.

0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:19.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, I mean you know I worked out. You know,

0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:19.680
<v Speaker 3>I kind of.

0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 2>Started very early, maybe probably let's say I probably started

0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:32.720
<v Speaker 2>and late February early March I started my off season

0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:35.720
<v Speaker 2>training program. And that was because of course I fractured

0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:40.440
<v Speaker 2>my shoulder. I was just healthy enough to enter into

0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:42.280
<v Speaker 2>the Pro Bowl and be cleared for that. But at

0:08:42.280 --> 0:08:43.760
<v Speaker 2>the end of the day after the Pro Bowl, I

0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:46.400
<v Speaker 2>kind of just set my mind on working hard and

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:48.800
<v Speaker 2>getting my body right. And you know, of course I

0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:53.920
<v Speaker 2>gained gain about fifteen pounds of muscle. You know, I

0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:58.120
<v Speaker 2>added a few inches off my vertical, my my sprinting,

0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:02.640
<v Speaker 2>my acceleration has all gotten better. As fast as I've

0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 2>ever been, as quick as I've ever been, as strong

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:07.320
<v Speaker 2>as I've ever been, can jump higher than I ever have,

0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:09.359
<v Speaker 2>and you know, I just feel.

0:09:09.160 --> 0:09:11.160
<v Speaker 3>Very healthy, feel very blessed to.

0:09:11.280 --> 0:09:14.840
<v Speaker 2>Uh, you know, put that work in and you know,

0:09:15.160 --> 0:09:17.520
<v Speaker 2>now that's here. You know I've always talked about in

0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:20.720
<v Speaker 2>the off season. You know, I trained with Justin King

0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:24.120
<v Speaker 2>out in North Scottsdale, and one of my best friends

0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:26.760
<v Speaker 2>came out to Seattle and I trained with him as

0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:29.960
<v Speaker 2>well because he played receiver. So it was just a

0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:32.080
<v Speaker 2>lot of football, a lot of football, a lot of

0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:34.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of just honing in onto the details, watching a

0:09:35.000 --> 0:09:37.200
<v Speaker 2>lot of film, the things that I could have possibly

0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:40.680
<v Speaker 2>done better, and you know, just trying to get myself

0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:45.000
<v Speaker 2>an overall, you know, better player. And you know that's

0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:47.719
<v Speaker 2>what I stuck my mind to. And now that you

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:50.600
<v Speaker 2>know the season's coming up, the season's here, I'm definitely

0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:51.880
<v Speaker 2>excited to showcase that.

0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:53.280
<v Speaker 1>What do you weigh right now?

0:09:53.320 --> 0:09:56.080
<v Speaker 2>Then? I'm about one ninety four right now, you know,

0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:59.120
<v Speaker 2>I like to be around one ninety one ninety four

0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:04.120
<v Speaker 2>around that area. Usually I've been around one to eighty five,

0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:06.959
<v Speaker 2>and towards the end of the season, I usually kind

0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.120
<v Speaker 2>of lose some weight, get down to like one eighty

0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:12.760
<v Speaker 2>three or so like that. So this year I've honed

0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:14.959
<v Speaker 2>in on you know, my weight and keeping it up.

0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:18.040
<v Speaker 2>And usually in training camp you lose a lot of weight,

0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:20.880
<v Speaker 2>and that wasn't the case this year. I kept my weight,

0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:24.840
<v Speaker 2>kept my strength, kept everything. So now it's just you know,

0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:28.079
<v Speaker 2>honing into this last week and getting ready for of

0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:29.599
<v Speaker 2>course the Washington Commanders.

0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:32.040
<v Speaker 1>So you put on fifteen pounds of muscle, though in

0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:34.400
<v Speaker 1>the off season you're a pretty compact guy. How did

0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:37.160
<v Speaker 1>you put on fifteen pounds of muscle? That's a lot?

0:10:37.280 --> 0:10:42.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I mean, well, you know, weight based. Now,

0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:45.920
<v Speaker 2>you know when when the off season hits. Of course

0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.600
<v Speaker 2>I lose weight when I don't when I don't work

0:10:48.640 --> 0:10:50.960
<v Speaker 2>out or I don't do anything. So of course, a

0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:53.560
<v Speaker 2>couple of weeks I took took off just to rest

0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:57.000
<v Speaker 2>my body and kind of not really getting the weight room.

0:10:57.040 --> 0:10:59.319
<v Speaker 2>And usually I get down to about you know, one

0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:03.160
<v Speaker 2>seventy three, you know, one seventy four, stay around there

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:05.760
<v Speaker 2>in the off season for that first little month of

0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:09.200
<v Speaker 2>not really doing anything, and then of course I gained

0:11:09.240 --> 0:11:12.160
<v Speaker 2>my weight, gave my weight up, you know, until training camp.

0:11:12.280 --> 0:11:15.760
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, I went from like one seventy to about

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:20.199
<v Speaker 2>one ninety five. So you know, it was definitely great.

0:11:20.240 --> 0:11:23.080
<v Speaker 2>It was definitely exciting just to feel my body and

0:11:23.120 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 2>to feel the strength and you know, all little intricate

0:11:25.960 --> 0:11:28.880
<v Speaker 2>areas of my body like my ankles, my feet, you know,

0:11:29.080 --> 0:11:32.080
<v Speaker 2>my cast my hamstrings. It's just it's a little more

0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:35.320
<v Speaker 2>pop and uh, you know, I definitely am excited to

0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:36.240
<v Speaker 2>showcase that.

0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.760
<v Speaker 1>I went from one seventy to one ninety five as well.

0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:41.760
<v Speaker 1>What are you laughing at? What are you saying? You

0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:46.520
<v Speaker 1>can't tell? I believe, h I believe it's in different

0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:51.560
<v Speaker 1>places than than you give me your uh, your sense

0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:54.439
<v Speaker 1>of Nick rollis a guy that obviously he's doing this

0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.199
<v Speaker 1>for the first time, but very impressive. Young guy just

0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:00.720
<v Speaker 1>turned thirty about a month ago. How much communication are

0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:04.160
<v Speaker 1>you guys having about what you see? Is he leaning

0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:06.720
<v Speaker 1>on guys like you that have been around that have

0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:07.959
<v Speaker 1>had success in this league?

0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:10.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean Nick, Nick watches a lot of ball.

0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Of course, he played ball in college. You know, JT

0:12:13.679 --> 0:12:17.800
<v Speaker 2>always laughs about playing him in college. I think he

0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:21.640
<v Speaker 2>went to what was it, like, some type of college

0:12:21.640 --> 0:12:24.160
<v Speaker 2>he went to. But Jalen Thompson played against some of

0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:27.800
<v Speaker 2>his freshman year when Nick was you know, I think

0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:30.000
<v Speaker 2>he was a senior, so they always joke about that.

0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:33.160
<v Speaker 2>But for me personally, I like to think that I

0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:35.400
<v Speaker 2>know a lot of football. You know, going into year seven,

0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I've played a few different defenses three four four, three

0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:42.199
<v Speaker 2>back to three four back to multiple type of defenses,

0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:44.720
<v Speaker 2>and you know, I will say Nick Nick is a

0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:48.520
<v Speaker 2>is a narrative football. He really knows the game. You know,

0:12:48.600 --> 0:12:50.960
<v Speaker 2>he makes it very easy for the players to understand

0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:54.920
<v Speaker 2>the game within the calls. Guys, are you know, able

0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:56.920
<v Speaker 2>to understand it and play fast? And at the end

0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:58.400
<v Speaker 2>of the day, that's what he wants us to do.

0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:00.800
<v Speaker 2>He wants us to know what we're doing and after

0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:03.719
<v Speaker 2>that just play as fast as we can because we

0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:05.839
<v Speaker 2>have we have the talent, we have the players to

0:13:05.880 --> 0:13:08.520
<v Speaker 2>play fast, and you know, he kind of gives it

0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:11.120
<v Speaker 2>upon us to of course know our job and then

0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:13.920
<v Speaker 2>just play football after that. So you know, there's a

0:13:13.920 --> 0:13:15.760
<v Speaker 2>few questions to ask here and there, but at the

0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:18.600
<v Speaker 2>end of the day, you know, we respect and understand

0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:21.880
<v Speaker 2>each every single time he you know, makes a call

0:13:21.960 --> 0:13:24.640
<v Speaker 2>and he explains what the call is used for, what

0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:27.640
<v Speaker 2>down it is for, you know, what personnel it's for.

0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:30.520
<v Speaker 3>So it gives guys a very great.

0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Understanding of knowing, kind of knowing before you know, you know,

0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:37.760
<v Speaker 2>the offense is out, you know. So for example, it

0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:40.160
<v Speaker 2>might be we might be in a nickel call and

0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:43.640
<v Speaker 2>he calls that call. So right when he calls a call,

0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:46.480
<v Speaker 2>we understand that. Okay, he called this call because he

0:13:46.559 --> 0:13:50.120
<v Speaker 2>thinks this and you know the weaknesses of this call

0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:52.080
<v Speaker 2>are this. The strength of this call is that. So

0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:55.360
<v Speaker 2>it's definitely, uh, you know, very nice to you know,

0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:57.640
<v Speaker 2>have a DC who understands those type of things.

0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:01.880
<v Speaker 1>Did you wait, Son was played at the University of Minnesota.

0:14:01.920 --> 0:14:03.600
<v Speaker 3>Minnesota, that's what it was.

0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:07.280
<v Speaker 1>Did you say Jalen Thompson played against him?

0:14:07.559 --> 0:14:08.719
<v Speaker 3>Correct? Correct? Wait?

0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:10.240
<v Speaker 1>How old is Jalleng right now?

0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:14.640
<v Speaker 3>He's like twenty five? No fo, Yeah, Jalen said he was.

0:14:14.880 --> 0:14:17.800
<v Speaker 2>He was a freshman Nick nick role he was probably

0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:19.920
<v Speaker 2>like a red shirt senior or something like that. But

0:14:20.120 --> 0:14:22.880
<v Speaker 2>he said he played against them and Nick was making

0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:25.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot of plays. So they always laugh about that.

0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:28.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I thought maybe that your paths might have

0:14:28.640 --> 0:14:30.920
<v Speaker 1>crossed because you're what twenty seven? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I

0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:33.080
<v Speaker 1>figured that maybe you and Rob, but the fact that

0:14:33.160 --> 0:14:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Thompson played against his de coordinator and he's twenty

0:14:36.000 --> 0:14:39.320
<v Speaker 1>five is crazy. I want to talk about some of

0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:41.240
<v Speaker 1>the guys that have some of the younger guys and

0:14:41.280 --> 0:14:42.840
<v Speaker 1>some of the newcomers that have stood out to you

0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:45.120
<v Speaker 1>in camp. Give me your thoughts on keetroll Clark, the

0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:47.480
<v Speaker 1>rookie out of Louisville who you know could end up

0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:48.560
<v Speaker 1>starting a week one.

0:14:48.880 --> 0:14:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, I really like the way he plays,

0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:53.600
<v Speaker 2>the way he goes about each and every day. He

0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:55.880
<v Speaker 2>has the right mentality. He has the mentality of a

0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:58.760
<v Speaker 2>pro of you know, this is his rookie year, but

0:14:58.840 --> 0:15:02.800
<v Speaker 2>he's understanding the little details of the game, and he's

0:15:02.920 --> 0:15:05.200
<v Speaker 2>taking the coach and he's understanding he's not making the

0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:08.280
<v Speaker 2>same mistake twice. And that's what you love to see

0:15:08.280 --> 0:15:10.800
<v Speaker 2>it from young guys. You know, they they might mess

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:13.320
<v Speaker 2>it up one time, but after that they understand what

0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:15.920
<v Speaker 2>it is and they won't mess it up again. So

0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:20.640
<v Speaker 2>very very quick, twitchy guy, a guy who can you know,

0:15:20.680 --> 0:15:24.120
<v Speaker 2>he can play on receivers, play on anybody. He can

0:15:24.160 --> 0:15:26.800
<v Speaker 2>come down and hit you. You know, I really like

0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:28.880
<v Speaker 2>the way that he plays. I like his game, and

0:15:28.960 --> 0:15:32.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm excited to see, you know what we have week one.

0:15:32.480 --> 0:15:34.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm excited to see him, you know, play football at

0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:36.400
<v Speaker 2>a high levels his rookie year.

0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:39.160
<v Speaker 1>What about Kaizer White, a guy that you know played

0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:44.360
<v Speaker 1>safety in college. He's a proven inside linebacker, but he's

0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:47.760
<v Speaker 1>played a lot of safety. He's very physical, just like

0:15:47.840 --> 0:15:49.960
<v Speaker 1>you are. What are some of your takeaways from watching

0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.360
<v Speaker 1>Kaizer because we haven't seen a lot of them obviously

0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:54.280
<v Speaker 1>in the preseason games, but you're with him every day

0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:54.840
<v Speaker 1>at practice.

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:59.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean personally, you know, when I when I

0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:01.600
<v Speaker 2>found out that JG was going to be the coach,

0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:05.720
<v Speaker 2>and you know, of course understanding who the defensive coordinator was,

0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:08.200
<v Speaker 2>the first thing I wanted to do as a cardinal

0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:11.120
<v Speaker 2>was to go back and look at the Eagles film

0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:13.320
<v Speaker 2>just to see how they play defense, just to see

0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:16.040
<v Speaker 2>certain players that they have that might be coming over

0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:19.640
<v Speaker 2>to Arizona. And he was a guy in that forty

0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:22.080
<v Speaker 2>three in the Eagles uniform that you know, I really

0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:24.880
<v Speaker 2>like to watch on the field on screen. You know,

0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:28.080
<v Speaker 2>a guy who's flying around, he knows what he's doing,

0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:31.520
<v Speaker 2>a guy who's gonna come up and hit you. A

0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:34.600
<v Speaker 2>guy who can also cover and understand the little intricate

0:16:34.640 --> 0:16:37.800
<v Speaker 2>details of what his job is. So that's something I'm

0:16:37.880 --> 0:16:39.960
<v Speaker 2>very excited to play with. And you guys just saw

0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:43.400
<v Speaker 2>a little you know, a little appetizer of course in

0:16:43.440 --> 0:16:47.760
<v Speaker 2>this preseason game. But that's a that's a Pro Bowl

0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:50.800
<v Speaker 2>type of guy who all pro type of linebacker that

0:16:51.000 --> 0:16:53.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, no one really talks about much, but they're

0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:55.240
<v Speaker 2>going to be able to see that, you know, come

0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:56.200
<v Speaker 2>week one and on.

0:16:56.960 --> 0:16:59.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that I've heard many guys talk about

0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:02.920
<v Speaker 1>when there's a coaching change that they go back and

0:17:03.040 --> 0:17:07.320
<v Speaker 1>watch the film, like right away. Is that something you've

0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:11.080
<v Speaker 1>always done? Like you have, You've always been a big

0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:14.080
<v Speaker 1>film guy who taught you initially, Like, hey, this is

0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:17.560
<v Speaker 1>something you should be focusing on. Because I got to

0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:19.919
<v Speaker 1>think that most guys aren't motivated to say, oh, we

0:17:19.960 --> 0:17:22.280
<v Speaker 1>have a new coach. Oh let's go ahead and just

0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:24.720
<v Speaker 1>look at the film and watch you know what type

0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:25.840
<v Speaker 1>of scheme might be coming here.

0:17:26.000 --> 0:17:26.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:17:26.320 --> 0:17:28.399
<v Speaker 2>You know me personally, I'm I'm a big, you know,

0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:32.520
<v Speaker 2>kind of football junkie. So you know, I like watching film.

0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:36.280
<v Speaker 2>I like watching certain defenses and certain players that you know,

0:17:36.480 --> 0:17:40.080
<v Speaker 2>the people might talk about. So I enjoy watching, you know,

0:17:40.160 --> 0:17:42.640
<v Speaker 2>watching on my iPad hours of film and that's kind

0:17:42.680 --> 0:17:45.520
<v Speaker 2>of always, you know, been me for a long time,

0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:48.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, ever since even literally like literally we were

0:17:48.920 --> 0:17:51.119
<v Speaker 2>watching film in the back of our coaches, you know,

0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:54.040
<v Speaker 2>car as a team and you know, understanding what we

0:17:54.080 --> 0:17:57.120
<v Speaker 2>could have done better, and also watching other teams as well.

0:17:57.240 --> 0:17:59.439
<v Speaker 2>So and then of course in high school, you know,

0:17:59.520 --> 0:18:01.760
<v Speaker 2>butch gun On try Off was my head coach at

0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:05.639
<v Speaker 2>Belvy High School. Never lost a football game in high school.

0:18:06.359 --> 0:18:12.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, my my freshman year, James Hasty, he was,

0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:15.320
<v Speaker 2>he was our defensive coordinator. His his son, Tyler Hasty,

0:18:15.359 --> 0:18:17.320
<v Speaker 2>I went to school with at Belvy High School, so

0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:20.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, he he's a you know, a Hall of

0:18:20.160 --> 0:18:25.640
<v Speaker 2>Fame football player. So of course, just to understand defense

0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:28.879
<v Speaker 2>as a high school player, it was definitely special. And

0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:32.120
<v Speaker 2>then of course going into University of Washington, Jimmy Lake

0:18:32.320 --> 0:18:36.760
<v Speaker 2>was my defensive backs coach, and you know, on recruiting

0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:39.119
<v Speaker 2>visits we would go and he would come over to

0:18:39.160 --> 0:18:41.080
<v Speaker 2>my house and we would watch film on you know,

0:18:41.480 --> 0:18:44.600
<v Speaker 2>Rondez Barber and you know, guys that played in the

0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:47.200
<v Speaker 2>league a while back, and we would just watch film

0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:50.359
<v Speaker 2>and understand certain details of what they did, and he

0:18:50.400 --> 0:18:52.560
<v Speaker 2>would coach me up on little things like that. And

0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:55.359
<v Speaker 2>then of course that you know, was stood all throughout

0:18:55.400 --> 0:18:57.520
<v Speaker 2>college and now that in the minute league, you know,

0:18:57.560 --> 0:19:00.720
<v Speaker 2>and it doesn't change, it gets more, of course. You know,

0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:03.919
<v Speaker 2>it was definitely special, you know, the way I was

0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:07.800
<v Speaker 2>brought up, and definitely blessed to understand to have all

0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:10.879
<v Speaker 2>those certain people that were in my corner trying to

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:13.639
<v Speaker 2>help me get better as a player. And you know,

0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:15.359
<v Speaker 2>now it's something I always do.

0:19:15.640 --> 0:19:18.239
<v Speaker 1>You talk about University Washington, Husky is going to be good,

0:19:18.280 --> 0:19:20.560
<v Speaker 1>the ranked tenth. They've got Boise State up in Seattle

0:19:20.600 --> 0:19:22.720
<v Speaker 1>week one, then it's off to the Big Ten. I

0:19:22.720 --> 0:19:25.280
<v Speaker 1>don't know how much you've paid attention to realignment, but

0:19:25.560 --> 0:19:27.240
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty crazy what's going on right now.

0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, definitely definitely crazy.

0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:32.040
<v Speaker 2>You know, I haven't really paid at attention much, but

0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:33.760
<v Speaker 2>I heard, yeah, they were going to the Big ten,

0:19:33.880 --> 0:19:37.960
<v Speaker 2>and you know they'll be taking those flights, you know, I.

0:19:37.920 --> 0:19:41.840
<v Speaker 1>Mean the the somebody told me it takes the equipment

0:19:41.880 --> 0:19:45.200
<v Speaker 1>truck at USC to get to Rutgers. It takes forty

0:19:45.240 --> 0:19:49.680
<v Speaker 1>one hours. So imagine Seattle, he's to Rutgers. Yeah, Port

0:19:49.680 --> 0:19:53.119
<v Speaker 1>of Maryland, the other Washington, the Commanders who you play

0:19:53.480 --> 0:19:57.840
<v Speaker 1>week one? How much tape have you watched already? And

0:19:57.920 --> 0:20:00.240
<v Speaker 1>when you're playing against a guy like Sam Howell who's

0:20:00.280 --> 0:20:03.760
<v Speaker 1>starting a quarterback who there's not a ton of film on, Uh,

0:20:03.840 --> 0:20:04.879
<v Speaker 1>how do you prepare for that?

0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:05.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:07.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, of course I watched you know, a few

0:20:07.640 --> 0:20:11.479
<v Speaker 2>series that he was able to play last week, and

0:20:11.880 --> 0:20:15.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, kind of just watching Chiefs film. Really you're

0:20:15.119 --> 0:20:19.320
<v Speaker 2>not really watching Commanders film because they're oc side head

0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:22.560
<v Speaker 2>coaches from the Chiefs. So just watching the Chiefs film

0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:25.480
<v Speaker 2>kind of seeing you know, little details that you know

0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:28.520
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs did that you know, of course possibly of

0:20:28.600 --> 0:20:31.680
<v Speaker 2>Washington Commanders will do. And uh, you know they kept

0:20:31.720 --> 0:20:35.359
<v Speaker 2>it very general, very basic in the preseason of course.

0:20:35.440 --> 0:20:38.000
<v Speaker 2>So it's just going to be a matter of understanding

0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:40.879
<v Speaker 2>our rules on it as a defense, and understanding of

0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:43.679
<v Speaker 2>course who their who their best players are, and you

0:20:43.720 --> 0:20:46.320
<v Speaker 2>know how in this league that's what it's meant for.

0:20:46.480 --> 0:20:49.239
<v Speaker 2>You know, offense is meant for to get you know,

0:20:49.320 --> 0:20:52.600
<v Speaker 2>their teammate, their team, the best players the ball. So

0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:56.399
<v Speaker 2>just understanding that and you know, like you said a

0:20:56.440 --> 0:20:59.840
<v Speaker 2>young QB, a QB who you know hasn't played much football,

0:20:59.840 --> 0:21:03.879
<v Speaker 2>So you know, just to watch as much film as

0:21:04.080 --> 0:21:06.480
<v Speaker 2>you know you can on him. Find the film. You know,

0:21:06.520 --> 0:21:08.800
<v Speaker 2>of course, our coaches will do a great job of

0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:12.240
<v Speaker 2>finding some film on him, whether that's you know, his tendencies,

0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:15.239
<v Speaker 2>what he likes to do, little details like that. But

0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:18.359
<v Speaker 2>you know, watching film would definitely ramp up this week.

0:21:18.880 --> 0:21:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Obviously, nobody can predict how a season's gonna go. Every year,

0:21:22.960 --> 0:21:24.600
<v Speaker 1>there are teams that people think are going to be

0:21:24.600 --> 0:21:27.720
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl contenders that win four games, and there's teams

0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:30.240
<v Speaker 1>that people aren't really thinking about that are off the

0:21:30.320 --> 0:21:33.000
<v Speaker 1>radar that end up making the playoffs. Maybe that's you know,

0:21:33.080 --> 0:21:37.000
<v Speaker 1>this Cardinal team this year, regardless of the results, what

0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:38.720
<v Speaker 1>do you think will be some of the hallmarks of

0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:41.280
<v Speaker 1>this team? Just kind of watching and doing the preseason games,

0:21:41.800 --> 0:21:48.800
<v Speaker 1>it seems to me like coaching, discipline, toughness, accountability, reliability,

0:21:48.840 --> 0:21:51.480
<v Speaker 1>like those are some things that I've noticed. Kind of

0:21:51.480 --> 0:21:54.040
<v Speaker 1>feels like those things stand out to me. How about you,

0:21:54.119 --> 0:21:55.000
<v Speaker 1>since you're living.

0:21:54.800 --> 0:21:58.720
<v Speaker 2>It, Yeah, exactly, all those all those categories, as you said,

0:21:59.160 --> 0:22:03.800
<v Speaker 2>those characteristics are definitely characteristics that I believe we are

0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:06.520
<v Speaker 2>going to have as a team. We're gonna know each

0:22:06.520 --> 0:22:09.640
<v Speaker 2>and every week what the job is and how to win.

0:22:09.920 --> 0:22:13.160
<v Speaker 2>And you know, after that week, we're gonna go back

0:22:13.200 --> 0:22:15.439
<v Speaker 2>to the board and we're gonna say, Okay, did we

0:22:15.520 --> 0:22:18.560
<v Speaker 2>do this? Did we do these intricate three intricate things

0:22:18.560 --> 0:22:21.480
<v Speaker 2>that you know would allow us to win? Yes?

0:22:21.600 --> 0:22:22.040
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yes?

0:22:22.160 --> 0:22:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Or no no no? And you know we'll go from there.

0:22:24.440 --> 0:22:29.240
<v Speaker 2>But you know, like you said, discipline, accountability, a team

0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:33.600
<v Speaker 2>that's just gonna play very fast, a team that doesn't

0:22:33.600 --> 0:22:38.239
<v Speaker 2>care about what anybody else thinks, and everybody that's in

0:22:38.280 --> 0:22:40.879
<v Speaker 2>that circle, everybody that's in that huddle, those are the

0:22:40.880 --> 0:22:43.840
<v Speaker 2>only ones that matter. And we're just gonna play football

0:22:43.840 --> 0:22:46.480
<v Speaker 2>at a high level. I definitely believe that one hundred percent.

0:22:46.840 --> 0:22:48.280
<v Speaker 1>All right, last one, We'll get you out of here.

0:22:48.320 --> 0:22:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Because we started with Hard Knocks, let's end with that.

0:22:50.960 --> 0:22:53.159
<v Speaker 1>Your sister, how she doing. Is she still here in

0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:55.080
<v Speaker 1>the valley? Because she was, you know, one of the

0:22:55.080 --> 0:22:57.239
<v Speaker 1>stars of Hard Knocks. We got a chance to kind

0:22:57.240 --> 0:22:59.280
<v Speaker 1>of go behind the scenes and see your life.

0:22:59.359 --> 0:23:01.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's doing great. You know, she's out

0:23:01.720 --> 0:23:02.080
<v Speaker 3>of ass.

0:23:02.160 --> 0:23:05.480
<v Speaker 2>You just started last week, so you know, she's out

0:23:05.480 --> 0:23:08.439
<v Speaker 2>there out and about, you know, walking to classes and uh,

0:23:08.640 --> 0:23:11.040
<v Speaker 2>you know, complaining about how hard it is while she's.

0:23:10.920 --> 0:23:11.919
<v Speaker 3>Walking the classes.

0:23:11.960 --> 0:23:14.840
<v Speaker 2>And you know, she's out there staying over on a

0:23:15.080 --> 0:23:18.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, out campus offsite campus over there. So you know,

0:23:19.240 --> 0:23:22.439
<v Speaker 2>big Bro has the house to herself now. So it's definitely, uh,

0:23:22.600 --> 0:23:24.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, it's kind of boring. But at the end

0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:26.200
<v Speaker 2>of the day, I'm just chilling with my dog.

0:23:26.359 --> 0:23:26.600
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:23:26.760 --> 0:23:29.639
<v Speaker 2>Have my daughter come around. She lives in Florida, so

0:23:29.720 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 2>have her come every now and again. But uh, yeah,

0:23:32.320 --> 0:23:36.520
<v Speaker 2>my little sister, she's doing great. She's happy, and you

0:23:36.560 --> 0:23:38.520
<v Speaker 2>know that's all I can ask for as a big brother.

0:23:38.680 --> 0:23:40.159
<v Speaker 1>Well, and you may have an empty house, but I'm

0:23:40.200 --> 0:23:42.040
<v Speaker 1>sure you're not there much because I know how hard

0:23:42.080 --> 0:23:44.399
<v Speaker 1>you work to get ready for the season and especially

0:23:44.480 --> 0:23:46.280
<v Speaker 1>once the season gets going. You're one of the leaders

0:23:46.280 --> 0:23:48.480
<v Speaker 1>of this team and you're one of the best players

0:23:48.520 --> 0:23:50.200
<v Speaker 1>in the league. Always appreciate you stopping by.

0:23:50.440 --> 0:23:52.480
<v Speaker 3>Yes, thank you, thank you for having me. I appreciate you.

0:23:56.320 --> 0:23:58.719
<v Speaker 1>We always learned something when we talk with Buddha Baker.

0:23:58.800 --> 0:24:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I knew that he was a film nut, a football junkie,

0:24:02.520 --> 0:24:05.080
<v Speaker 1>but just hearing first of all, the story about how

0:24:05.119 --> 0:24:08.479
<v Speaker 1>he would sit and watch Little League film in the

0:24:08.480 --> 0:24:10.720
<v Speaker 1>back of the van back when he was young. But

0:24:10.800 --> 0:24:14.000
<v Speaker 1>also recently, Jonathan Gannon gets hired and what does Buddha do.

0:24:14.160 --> 0:24:17.959
<v Speaker 1>He starts watching Philadelphia Eagles film right away, not just

0:24:18.000 --> 0:24:20.720
<v Speaker 1>to get a sense for the scheme, but take a

0:24:20.720 --> 0:24:23.679
<v Speaker 1>look at Kaiser White who is coming over with Gannon

0:24:23.680 --> 0:24:26.359
<v Speaker 1>as a free agent. So great stuff from Buddha talking

0:24:26.400 --> 0:24:29.879
<v Speaker 1>about the team, his workout routine going into the season,

0:24:30.119 --> 0:24:32.919
<v Speaker 1>and also just still trying to process the fact that

0:24:32.960 --> 0:24:36.320
<v Speaker 1>Jahelen Thompson played against Nick Rollis, who is now his

0:24:36.480 --> 0:24:39.479
<v Speaker 1>coach in college just a few years ago. We are
