1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,280 Speaker 1: Morning, Bill h. Obviously Steph was not there yesterday and 2 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: there are multiple reports saying he's not going to be 3 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,560 Speaker 1: here for the remaindering two days here of mandatory mini camp. 4 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,319 Speaker 1: Is this an excused absence? Yeah, we don't. I don't 5 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 1: expect him to be here. And uh yeah, what is 6 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: focus on the guys that are here and focusing on 7 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 1: the guys that are here. Jac Jackson obviously had to 8 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: take on maybe even bigger role when Steff's got hurt 9 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: last season. How do you think he's fair during that time? 10 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:35,480 Speaker 1: And is he still an ascending player in your mind? Well, 11 00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: every years a new year for all of us, So 12 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,919 Speaker 1: doesn't really matter what what did or didn't happen last year. 13 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 1: We're all, uh, you know, working on building a good 14 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: foundation this year and and uh, you know, trying to 15 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: have our best performance in the two thousand and twenty 16 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,200 Speaker 1: one season. So, um, I know that's you know Jac's 17 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: um you know, that's his goal and that's all of 18 00:00:56,080 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: our goals. So we'll see how goes. Thank you. Next 19 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,479 Speaker 1: question and you're counting hand fall by Joe can Hey 20 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 1: good Andrew um So I want to ask about Johnny Smith. 21 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 1: We saw him pull up a little bit lame yesterday 22 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: and practice. I'm wondering if you expect him to practice 23 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: here today. Uh yeah, we'll see how it goes. Um. 24 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: You know, like a lot of guys, we you know, 25 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: take a look at them before practice or in the 26 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: early part of practice and you know, see how they're 27 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: how they're doing. Um. So yeah, we probably have you know, 28 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: six to ten guys that falls somewhere in that category 29 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: that was to take it, you know, day by day. 30 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: And among the other four guys who were absent yesterday, 31 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: you expect any of them to return buyer in the 32 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: chase terres and I know I'm missing one there. Uh yeah. Again, 33 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 1: everybody's kind of in the same boat there. Uh yeah, 34 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: a couple of those guys, I don't think we'll see, 35 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: but um, you know anybody that's uh you know, I mean, look, 36 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: all the players want to get out there and participates. 37 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: So if they can, they will. If they can't, then we'll, 38 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: um do what we can do with them and get 39 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: them out there. And we can. Some guys may take 40 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,639 Speaker 1: part in um, certain portions of practice, but not in 41 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: other portions, So it's really on a case by case. Um, 42 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: those are case by case decisions that are made by 43 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: the medical department, And I would say as we go 44 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: through UM getting ready for practice, the warming up peint 45 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 1: part of practice, and you know, the some of the 46 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:34,080 Speaker 1: early UM periods in practice to determine how it's going 47 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: to go later on. So it's it's very fluid. By 48 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: next question, Joe Kataf, how buy micrease? Morning Bill? How 49 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: are you pit? Joe? How's it going good? H Cam 50 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 1: having this you know off season under his belt, how 51 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: much progression have you seen from last year not having 52 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: and then having just these last three ots and now 53 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 1: this mini can Yeah, well, Cam's way ahead to worry 54 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: he was last year at this time. There's no question 55 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 1: about that. I Mean it's you know, as you would expect. 56 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: He you know, has a good year of experience under 57 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: his belt, and he's able to start the process at 58 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: the beginning UM and not being a catch up mode 59 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: like he was last year. Um, I mean he was 60 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: really just starting at this point, uh last season. But 61 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: you know he's he's well ahead of that just from 62 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: the year of experience and from the you know, the 63 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: succession of building blocks that he's been able to to 64 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: stack up. Like all the players have that you know, 65 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: have been here since the start of the OTA and 66 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: the offseason program back in April, that they've been able 67 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: to stack those days and and those um learning experiences together, 68 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: ask questions on things that they need clarification on, and um, 69 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, build to to the next level when when 70 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: they're ready to to, you know, put another put another 71 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: brick on the pile. So that's um, you know, it's 72 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 1: good for all of US's good for Cam's good, you know, 73 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 1: good for all the players that can go through that process. 74 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: Next question Mike Grease, followed by Mary hirsch Bourdon. Good morning, Bill. 75 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: I'm just to sort of follow up on that. I'm 76 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: just on the for all four quarterbacks as you wrap 77 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: up the spring. What didn't you observe just in terms 78 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: of the group and the working dynamic between the four 79 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: of them. Yeah, they're all They're all hard working. They 80 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: all put in a lot of time and you know, 81 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: ask good questions and really try to stay on top 82 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: of the material. And um, Brian of course has the 83 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: most experience, and UM, yeah, Jared and Cam both have 84 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 1: experience in a little different ways. Jared spend was a 85 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 1: little bit longer. Cam's obviously had more NFL experience and 86 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: the playing experience from last year, and and you know 87 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: Mac has the least amount, but you know he's learning 88 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 1: quickly and working hard at it. So we'll see how 89 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,039 Speaker 1: it all goes. But there, you know, they've done a 90 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 1: good job of trying to process the information that we've 91 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 1: given them. You know, Josh obviously does a great job 92 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: with the quarterbacks. Uh, and Bo's helping him out there 93 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: as well. So well, again, we'll see where it all 94 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: takes us. And Bill, I just had a quick Troy 95 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 1: Brown question. Um. I know last year he worked a 96 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: little bit with the running backs with Ivan Um and 97 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: this year maybe in the spring, we've seen him maybe 98 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: a little more with the receivers. I don't know, how 99 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: do you envision sort of where he ends up? I 100 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 1: guess this year. Yeah, Troy's very good with all the 101 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: skilled players, um, you know, catching the ball, running the ball, 102 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,919 Speaker 1: returning kicks, UM, getting opened in the passing game and 103 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: so forth. So UM, like a lot of like a 104 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: lot of coaches on her staff, he's versatile. He can 105 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 1: do a lot of different things and and help a 106 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: lot of different players. So um, We'm sure I'll be 107 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: able to use him in a variety of ways. Next 108 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: question Mary hirsh Gordon, followed by Doug Kine Okay, Bill 109 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: up the morning, hope you're doing well. Question on the 110 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: rookie class. Do you think this year's rookie class is 111 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: ahead of last year's rookie class simply due to the 112 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: time on the field and the coaching that they've been 113 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: able to get at this part of the year. And 114 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: then if so, come training camp, what areas do you 115 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: think this rookie class will be ahead of last year's 116 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: rookie class. All right, well, it's you know, it's all relative. 117 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: More it's our rookie class is in the same situation 118 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: as the other thirty one teams, and last year the 119 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: circumstances were different, but everybody was on the same track 120 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: on every team, So I don't know there's a big 121 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: advantage from team to team and where one year what 122 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: was different one year from the next year. Again, I 123 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: don't know if that's really that relevant either, because the 124 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: other players are Last year they weren't able to do much. 125 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: This year players have been able to do more. So 126 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 1: again it's it's all relative. I think the rookies are 127 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: about where they where you would think they would be 128 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: at this point. They're way ahead of where they were 129 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: a month ago, and still, you know, way behind where 130 00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: they will be and where they need to be by 131 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 1: the time we start playing preseason and ultimately regular season games. 132 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 1: So we'll see how quickly but they can catch up. 133 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: Next question, dear kind fought by Bob Socie Bill, kind 134 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: of related to Morey's question, is this time of year, 135 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: this Ota Miniicamp period maybe even more important for last 136 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 1: year's rookie class than it usually would be at this 137 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: time of year since they didn't get this opportunity last year. 138 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: I'm sure all those players are are benefiting from this 139 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: absolutely again, the opportunity to to start from scratch in person, 140 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: to hear the plays, to go out and practice the techniques, 141 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: to then go out and practice the plays as a 142 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: as a unit, and then to correct those mistakes, and 143 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: to come back in and take on a new new 144 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: set of it um, you know, a new a new 145 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: day of installation, and go through that process again and 146 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: practice the techniques and practice the plays. Yeah, that's a 147 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: great learning sequence for any player, but as you mentioned, 148 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: the ones last year didn't really get to learn it 149 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: that way. They just had to get it all, you know, 150 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: thrown at them in virtual meetings and then go to 151 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: training camp and and at a very accelerated rate try 152 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 1: to try to put all those things into place. And 153 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: this is a much better teaching progression for anyone, for 154 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: the rookies, and as you said, for the guys who 155 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: didn't get to do it that way last year. I'm 156 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: sure there's a lot of fine points and coaching points 157 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:46,599 Speaker 1: and techniques that maybe somewhere got lost in the conversations 158 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,719 Speaker 1: at times last year that we're able to detail out 159 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: better this spring. So yeah, I think it definitely helps them. 160 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: It's really it's a really good point. And then it 161 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: just really quick. There was a two trialut players the 162 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 1: practice yesterday. Are either one of those guys signing they're 163 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: still in the tryout status for right now? Thank Sectry 164 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 1: final questions would be bomb socie all right, Thanks Stacy, 165 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: Good morning, Billy Built. Some of the veterans talked about 166 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 1: the absence last year of more opportunities to build camaraderie, 167 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: that they really missed certain aspects of being together, hanging 168 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: with their teammates, eating, etc. And early this year when 169 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: we talked to guys, they discussed how much they enjoyed 170 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: being back with one another more so than a year ago, 171 00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: and having those opportunities to develop an even greater at 172 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: camaraderie with all the football teaching and evaluation that goes on. 173 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 1: How important is at this time of the year for 174 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: your players to develop that sense of cohesiveness off the 175 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,960 Speaker 1: field in hopes that it will carry over on the field. 176 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,319 Speaker 1: Uh yeah, that's uh. You know, this is a good 177 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: opportunity for those things to happen, both formally and informally. Um. 178 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 1: We do some things as a team that helped to 179 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: create that team building environment that you reference. And also 180 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: the players themselves can individually get together with other guys 181 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 1: and and do things um that they haven't common or 182 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: share experiences and so forth, and that that's part of 183 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: it as well. So, um, neither one of those who 184 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 1: are really available last year or they're more available this year, 185 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: however you want to look at it. Uh so, Um yeah, 186 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,599 Speaker 1: that's that's an important part of team building. Um. You know, 187 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: as we know, there are players who are on our 188 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:52,679 Speaker 1: team now that that won't be on our team. And 189 00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 1: when we reduce the rosters of fifty three and there's 190 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: another you know, it's a team building aspect that comes 191 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: in training camp and as the roster gets finalized or reduced, 192 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 1: um for the team building to occur, you know, with 193 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: that with that group, which is a little bit different. 194 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: Of course, some of it's the same, but the numbers 195 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: and the and the composition the group's a little bit different, um, 196 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: you know, in September and during the regular season than 197 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: than what it is now too. So it's really an 198 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,839 Speaker 1: ongoing process. A lot of those relationships can be uh 199 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: started and developed um at this time of year, and 200 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: then you know, further grown as we as we go 201 00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 1: through the go through the entire season. Is it your 202 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 1: hope that when you adjourn these these mini campus sessions 203 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 1: that because of that team bonding, that some of these 204 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: guys get together were on their own and continue their 205 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 1: work with one another. I know some of them, I've 206 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: done it already, you know, you know, with the quarterbacks 207 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 1: and receivers, etc. But is that an ideal situation that 208 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: these guys continue that between now and the start of 209 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: training agap. Well, I'm sure some of that will will 210 00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: take place, um, But at the same time, I think 211 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 1: this is the opportunity for everyone individually to handle the 212 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: things that they need to handle on their personal personal 213 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:24,079 Speaker 1: lives and preparations to the season, to make sure that 214 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 1: when they come to training camp and they start the 215 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: season that they're that they're ready to go. And uh, 216 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: some things that will be difficult to do because of 217 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: our time commitments during the season, that maybe some of 218 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: those can be done between now and started training camp. 219 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: So you know, it's a balance. Some guys have more 220 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 1: commitments in some areas than others, and geogeography plays a 221 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:55,439 Speaker 1: role in this as well. So if it works out 222 00:12:55,520 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 1: that way, great, Um, but I don't think that's uh, 223 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: obviously anything that's that's mandatory, uh to be successful. It's 224 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: you know, again, it could be a nice residual if 225 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: it happened that way. But I think the main thing 226 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: is for everybody to kind of clear clear up the 227 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: things that they need to clear up prior to the 228 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 1: start a training camp so that they don't get bogged 229 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,080 Speaker 1: down with them, um, you know when when it becomes 230 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: very football intensive. Thanks Bill, Yeah, sure, Well. Final question, 231 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: Mike creas, I just wanted to ask you what you've 232 00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,559 Speaker 1: observed from Chase Winovich just this offseason and and just 233 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: in general, how he's been hanging in in this sort 234 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:48,439 Speaker 1: of voluntary teaching based spring. Well, Chase was here for uh, 235 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: you know, parts of it, and um, you know, as always, 236 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 1: Chase brings a high level of energy and a high 237 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: work ethic, competitive minister all the things that he does. 238 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 1: You know, he's still a young player that's developing and 239 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,880 Speaker 1: can continue to grow, both in his understanding of our 240 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: system and the techniques and and some of his assignments 241 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: that come with it. And you know, his versatility leads 242 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: to some um i'd say probably a bigger you know, 243 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: a little wider range of assignments than than maybe some 244 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: other players, um, including the kicking game. But he does 245 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 1: a good job of trying to manage all that and 246 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 1: you know, work on all the things that that will 247 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 1: help the team. He's team oriented and you know he 248 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:37,640 Speaker 1: works hard to help the team in a lot of 249 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: different ways, um, between defense and the kicking game, and 250 00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: you know, the groupings that he plays on. He's you know, 251 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 1: he has a pretty pretty fair amount of you know, 252 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: variety and his responsibility. Thank you, coach, Thanks everyone,
