00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 1: When to ask you about Dietrich wise, he played a

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,280
Speaker 1: ton of snaps on Sunday. We even saw him dropping

5
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,480
Speaker 1: the coverage on one and he he kind of talked

6
00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: yesterday about how he felt like a linebacker on those

7
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: plays and just uh, you know kind of what you're

8
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,480
Speaker 1: what you've seen from him when over the past couple

9
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:24,119
Speaker 1: of years working with him, Yeah, you know, Um, I

10
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: can't can't speak enough about how hard he works, um,

11
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,000
Speaker 1: you know, how much he cares, how much he loves football.

12
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: He's such a good example for for a lot of

13
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 1: the players on the team, just um, you know, learning

14
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:39,480
Speaker 1: the scheme, learning different positions, um, you know, the commitment

15
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 1: to to the team. He's done so well for us

16
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: um every year and this year has been no different.

17
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: So really can't say enough good things about him and

18
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: what a good leader and teammate he is for all

19
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: of those guys. And he played He's played really well

20
00:00:54,240 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: so far to start this season. Thanks, thank you. Next

21
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 1: question Nick O'Malley, followed by Bob Socie. Hey, Steve, speaking

22
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 1: of you guys dropping back into coverage. Matt Judean had

23
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: like a really big play at the end of the game,

24
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 1: dropping back in coverage on naj Harris. Well, he gets

25
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: a lot of attention for his abilities as a pass rusher,

26
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: but what is he has he shown you in terms

27
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 1: of his abilities as an all round defender? Um? Uh,

28
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,400
Speaker 1: defending the run sideline to the sideline and dropped back

29
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:30,279
Speaker 1: in coverage. Yeah, you know, I've seen him do stuff

30
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 1: like that before, whether it's practice or other games. But

31
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: he's a he's another you know, versatile player who can

32
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 1: do a lot of different things. Um, and it really

33
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: helps out, you know, kind of the overall scheme of

34
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: the defense because of all the different things he can do. Um.

35
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 1: Obviously everybody knows how valuable of a of a PC

36
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: is to our defense. So um, I wasn't surprised he

37
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: made that play. I've seen him make it before, so

38
00:01:55,440 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: it's a really good play. Thanks Steve, Thank you kind

39
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: Next us Bob Socie felt by Chris Ryan. Thanks days morning, Steve. Morning.

40
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: How you doing. I'm good Steve and yourself very good?

41
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 1: Thank you good. Why I ask you about you? Bill

42
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: Peppers look like you guys kind of eased him into

43
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: things coming off the knee injury during training camp and

44
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 1: what we've seen really from like the last week of

45
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: the preseason to this point. What are impressions of the

46
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: physicality with Litchie plays and how does he fit in

47
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: with that safety group. Yeah, he fits in really well.

48
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: You know, like you mentioned, I was coming back from

49
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 1: the knee injury, so he was a little you know,

50
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: he was just a little behind those guys getting out

51
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: onto the field, you know, Doug ap dev obviously, those

52
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: guys have played together here for for a couple of years,

53
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: So he's integrated really well with those guys. I think

54
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 1: those guys help him just in terms of their experience

55
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: and kind of helping him get to the right spots.

56
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,239
Speaker 1: But it's hard to not notice his energy, his excitement,

57
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: his love for football, how how passionate he is out

58
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: there on the field. Really happy to have him on

59
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: the team, have him out there. Um, and I think

60
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 1: it's only going to get get better going forward. Um

61
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: if if he stays on the trajectory, he's uh, he's on.

62
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: So it's been really good and he was happy to

63
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: see him out there making the place just do real quickly.

64
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: With his history, I mean, he's obviously a high pick

65
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: um came out of Michigan. His guy was able to

66
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,239
Speaker 1: do a lot of different things. Were you guys onto

67
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: him you know at that point? Was he a player

68
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: that was on your radar even before he came out

69
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: of the into the NFL? Yeah, I mean, you know,

70
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 1: we go through go through all those guys, um, you know, coaching,

71
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 1: coaching safeties before the linebackers. Obviously, you know, look at

72
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: all those all those top guys and see what the

73
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: products are coming out of college. But he's a you know,

74
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: obviously he's a tough guy. He's a joursey guy. So um,

75
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: you know, you know, you know what you're gonna get

76
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: there from him. But uh yeah, he's an electric player.

77
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: Um going back to college and like I said before,

78
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: really happy to have him on our team. Thanks Steve.

79
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: My next question Chris Ryan falled by Philip Perry. See

80
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: how are you going? I'm good? Are you doing awesome? Um?

81
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: What is the sense that you're getting in regard to

82
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 1: the cohesiveness of this defensive unit? Got obviously kind of

83
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 1: two games into it, but do you sense that there

84
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 1: is a cohesidens between you know, what the secondary is

85
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 1: doing linebackers, and um also the line with the running

86
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: game or the passing game. That's significant. Um. Yeah you know,

87
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: I mean, uh, we've only played two games here, um,

88
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 1: but yeah, just kind of the whole group working together,

89
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 1: building trust, um, you know at all three levels from

90
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 1: the D line to the linebacker sit back end, and

91
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: guy's changing spots. Uh in terms of you know, guys

92
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,159
Speaker 1: like Jude On dropping and becoming let's calling them a

93
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: second level player, and guys like you know in the

94
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: safety room U dropping down and playing at the linebacker spot.

95
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 1: So we'll continue to to work on that stuff and

96
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: keep bill and trust um you know from the coaching

97
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: staff and the players, and do the best we can

98
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 1: with the with the pieces we have, which um, we

99
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: definitely have some good ones out there. So it's just

100
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: it's a it's a building process as we go, but um,

101
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: I just got to keep working at It's still early

102
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 1: in the season the groups established and identity yet and

103
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: if so, is the identity different than it has been

104
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 1: in years past? Um? You know, I think, like I said,

105
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: we've only played two games, so UM, you know it's

106
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: hard to say like this is this is what we are,

107
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: this is what um our identity is you know, there's

108
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of football left to be

109
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 1: played the season. We're not too concerned about that right now.

110
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,719
Speaker 1: We got some goals and targets that that we want

111
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: to hit. But at the same time, I think every

112
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:50,039
Speaker 1: team is different, uh, or I should say every defense

113
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 1: is different regardless of the year. Um. You know, the

114
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: players change, the scheme adjusts, and and we're just trying

115
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: to you know, kind of find our way and get

116
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: on the right track as as the twenty twenty two

117
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: defense that we are. Thanks our next question, Phil Perry

118
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: follow Bay Marketings. Hey, Steve, good to see you. I

119
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you, um sort of about I guess

120
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: the sideline operation. But there were a few moments in

121
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: the game the other day where we saw Bill you know,

122
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: really focused on some of the offensive players, the quarterbacks

123
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: in particular. You know, so even while the defense is

124
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 1: on the field playing, it looked like he was he

125
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: was focused on some other things. What does that say

126
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: maybe about the trust that he has in new and

127
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: Growd and the rest of the defensive staff to kind

128
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: of focus his attention elsewhere when he feels like he

129
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: needs to, um, you know, to be honest, I can't

130
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 1: say that I noticed where where he was, you know,

131
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: at certain points. But you know we're all on the headsets,

132
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 1: we're all communicating. Um. You know, the defensive staff we

133
00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: do a great job. Um, all working together. You know,

134
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: we got a smaller staff, Um, but you know we

135
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 1: worked really well together. We've been together for for multiple

136
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: years here. So you know, whether it's you know me,

137
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 1: Jrod DeMarcus down there on the field, my brother Mike

138
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: Viangelo up in the box. Um, you know, we're always talking,

139
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 1: We're always communicating. And you know he's he's the head coach,

140
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: so he's got more to do than just you know,

141
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: babysit us on defense. So it's our job to get

142
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: those guys ready to go. And UM, you know we

143
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 1: we feel good about our operation and how we work together.

144
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: So UM, if he's there, he's given input. If he's not,

145
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,880
Speaker 1: then you know it's not like we're just gonna, you know,

146
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: let the wheels fall off, so and just a fallow

147
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 1: up seven. I mean you mentioned you've got a pretty

148
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: small staff. How is that may be beneficial to you guys? Um,

149
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: I can't say, I like look at it that way.

150
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: It's just kind of it is what it is, So

151
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: you know, it could be good, it could be bad.

152
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 1: I'm not honestly, I don't have much to compare it to.

153
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: That's kind of the way it's been around here. So

154
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 1: that's just it's how we work together. We're very you know,

155
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: we're a tight knit group. We're a younger, younger group

156
00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 1: of guys. Um, so we just kind of you know,

157
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: we spent a lot of time together on and off

158
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: the field, and we understand each other and the personalities

159
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 1: and so it's just kind of it's kind of how

160
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: we how we roll as a group. I don't know

161
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: if it's beneficial or not beneficial. It's just it's it's

162
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: what we do. Got it, Thanks Steve, Thank you. We'll

163
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 1: try to squeeze in three final questions here. We'll do

164
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: just one question of peace. Mark Daniels fall back, Karen

165
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: Greed you. Hey, Steve, hope you're having a great morning. Um,

166
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about DeMarcus Covington. What's it

167
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: been like working with DeMarcus and how would you describe

168
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,240
Speaker 1: him as a coach? Um. Yeah, you know, I've worked

169
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:51,719
Speaker 1: with DeMarcus for for multiple years here, Um, he's done

170
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 1: a lot of different things and and love working with DC. UM.

171
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:59,320
Speaker 1: You know, he's a really passionate coach. He's got great energy,

172
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: he he's really smart in his schemes. UM you know,

173
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: he understands the back end really well. Uh. Not allowed

174
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: to compare him to but you know, as a D

175
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: line coach, he's very in tune with what we do

176
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: in coverage and those opinions you know, really matter and

177
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: it really helps with the knowledge that he has of

178
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: the marriage between Russian coverage, which we always talk about

179
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,720
Speaker 1: that um you know, as a staff. And so it's

180
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 1: not like he kind of just tunes out in those

181
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: conversations or leaves the room when we're watching seven on

182
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: seven and stuff like that. From practice, he's right in

183
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 1: there with all of us. Like I mentioned before, we're

184
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: a tight group and and we all have input. You know,

185
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: we all kind of we call ourselves football coaches. We

186
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,000
Speaker 1: don't call ourselves you know, linebacker coaches or you know

187
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 1: D line coaches or whatever. We're we're football coaches and uh,

188
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: and we're all trying to learn and get better and

189
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of good constructive conversations that we

190
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 1: have in there, and really the big question we always

191
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 1: ask is you know, why, like why why are we

192
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: doing that? And that that goes a long way for us,

193
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 1: and you know it's on a bad way, it's it's

194
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: in a really good way, like, well, why are we

195
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: doing this in coverage? Coming from from DC? So he's eager,

196
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: eager to learn, and um, you know, love working with

197
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,520
Speaker 1: him and you know, close friend in the building as

198
00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: well as off the field. So I love working with

199
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: DC and he brings a lot to our staff. Great,

200
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. Your last two questions Karen Greegin

203
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 1: game and the prospects of defending against Lamar Jackson. Um,

204
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 1: does having gone against Tua and Mitch Trubisky help in

205
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: any way? Or is Lamar just a completely different animal? Uh? Yeah,

206
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: you know, Um, you know you're always gonna have to

207
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 1: defend against a quarterback whoever's on the other side of

208
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: the ball, and um, you know, maybe there's some carryover.

209
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: Maybe now we're still early in the week here, but

210
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: but this guy, you know, miss wasn't the same as

211
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: tah and Lamar is not the same as as those

212
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: other two. So we're you know, we're grinding away on him.

213
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: This guy's a fantastic player. He does, you know, everything

214
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 1: very well. He's a very dangerous, dangerous player, just like

215
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,719
Speaker 1: you know mentioned toa UM. But uh, there's a lot

216
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: to prepare for with this offense. And and really it

217
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 1: starts with him. You know, he touches the ball every

218
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: single play, no matter what the play is, so um,

219
00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: just like the other two guys. But he's Uh, there's

220
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: a lot to prepare for with him, and and we're

221
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: excited about the challenge. We're excited to play a home

222
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,079
Speaker 1: game and we just gotta you know, we're getting back

223
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 1: to work here and and embracing the challenge and the

224
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 1: opportunity we have to to get back out on the field.

225
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 1: But this guy's he's very good in multiple areas, just

226
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 1: like the other two wars. So we're excited. And um,

228
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:15,360
Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you. Your last question, Zach Cox, Hey,

229
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: you see, if you mentioned the Agelo earlier, I'm just

230
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: curious what your experience has been like working with him

231
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: as a coach, UM, as someone who's here as a

232
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 1: player not so long ago. Yeah, you know, I remember

233
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: being being young on the staff when when Va was here,

234
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: and it's been fantastic. Um working with the Angelo. Um,

235
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: you know, came in in the spring, puts his head down,

236
00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: works asks a lot of questions, UM, you know, to

237
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: try and gain knowledge. Um you know, played played DV

238
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 1: when he was here and stuff like that. But that's

239
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 1: not he doesn't limit himself or put himself into a

240
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 1: bucket or anything like that. He's just trying to learn

241
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:57,200
Speaker 1: about about football and about our operation and what we

242
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,199
Speaker 1: do here. UM. Can't say enough good things about him.

243
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: You know, comes from college and has a you know,

244
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: a good perspective on football in general. Um, stuff that

245
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: he's done, stuff that he's learned, and and his willingness

246
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:15,320
Speaker 1: to learn and ask good questions. And those questions honestly

247
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:19,560
Speaker 1: make you think as a coach of going back to

248
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: kind of like the why, Like him asking well, why

249
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,680
Speaker 1: do we do this? It makes you think about is

250
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 1: it the right thing or is it something is there

251
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: something we want to do a little bit differently? And

252
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: he puts his head down, he works every single day

253
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 1: and I'm really happy to have him on the staff.
