I've 85 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 4: had experience with Mac when he was a true freshman 86 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 4: at Alabama. 87 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: Thought he did. 88 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 4: All of them were really good college players. Mac had 89 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 4: exceptional senior year, you know, fought through playing behind Tua 90 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 4: and Jalen with the right approach, right attitude, the right mindset, 91 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 4: and had a really good senior year. Broke a lot 92 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 4: of records. I'd say, ZAPPI what a Houston Baptist.

Greer was at Florida, then he 95 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 4: transferred to West Virginia, had a good West Virginia game. 96 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: So you know, there's some tape to watch with all 97 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: those guys. 98 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 4: You've spent time watching them, and then you watch their 99 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 4: offense and see what Billy O's doing, and they are 100 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 4: a game planned team. 101 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: This is a good game planned team anyways, you know. 102 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 4: But it's defense, offense, special teams, so a lot a 103 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 4: lot of take to watch. 104 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 5: Those details are remarkable to me. 105 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: I mean, that's all just. 106 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: Off the top of your head. 107 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 4: Well, spent a lot of time here the last couple 108 00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 4: of days looking at a lot of film. 109 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 3: You spent a lot of time, you know, in your 110 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 3: former years working on the bill. So as a head coach, 111 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 3: how much do you lean on things you learned. I 112 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 3: don't think you've any specific that you have sure brought 113 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 3: from from those days. 114 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd just say you you know, when I first started, 115 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 4: I started as a defensive assistant, you know, didn't get 116 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 4: paid very much, but had an opportunity to learn for 117 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 4: some really good coaches, obviously Coach Belichick being one of them, 118 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 4: Dante Scarnekia, Charlie Weis, Romeo canell I have fears. A 119 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 4: lot of a lot of older guys Brad Seely that 120 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 4: have coached for a long time. Eric Mangini. Then just 121 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 4: learned to do your job and be part of the team. 122 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 4: You learn a lot of football, You learn a lot 123 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 4: of things organizationally if you pay attention. So I've learned 124 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 4: a lot from them. Then I've also learned from you know, 125 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 4: a lot of other guys that have worked Tony Sperano, 126 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 4: the rest of Soul. You know, so you take experiences 127 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 4: with you, Dan, from every place you've been. I was 128 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 4: there for six years or whatever it was, seven years 129 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 4: and left and then went back. So again, a lot 130 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 4: of good coaches, a lot of good mentors that I've had, 131 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 4: But you take, you know, you take a lot from 132 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,280 Speaker 4: from a lot of those older coaches that have done 133 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 4: it for a long time. 134 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 5: You said they like to be game plan specific. Sure, 135 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 5: you like to be game plan specific as well offensively. 136 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 5: But I'm curious last week, did you find things that 137 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 5: after all the inconsistencies for the first you know, ten 138 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 5: or so games, that you know, these are things that 139 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 5: your current personnel can do well and you can take 140 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 5: forward now and try to build around that rather than 141 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 5: it seem like every week was kind of every week was. 142 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 1: Kind of a search. 143 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I think you do it each week art 144 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 4: you sit down, you see kind of how their defense 145 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 4: is just offensively speaking, same thing defensively, and try to 146 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 4: come up with what you think will be good how 147 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 4: to play the game. And you know that will never change, 148 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 4: you know, how we do things in terms of you know, 149 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 4: looking at the opponent, but you got to make sure 150 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 4: you try to do things you do well first and foremost. 151 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 4: How much do you think things change for your quarterback 152 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 4: now that there's more tape on him? Yeah, I think 153 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,280 Speaker 4: the more the more tape there is for a player. 154 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,800 Speaker 4: And again he's had, you know, two starts, so it's 155 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 4: be his third one. I know he's played a little 156 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 4: bit in some other games, but more information, more to 157 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 4: look at. So the more tape you have as a 158 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 4: coach and the more things you can see. So I'm 159 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 4: sure that as he plays, teams will decide to game 160 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 4: plan however they want to game plan them, whether it's 161 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 4: you know, a different way to rush them or different 162 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 4: coverages and things like that. So again, he's so so 163 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 4: young right now with only the two. 164 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: Starts, and we really got to focus on him and 165 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: the things he does well because of the business. 166 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 4: Do you get any time to enjoy the holiday with 167 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 4: your family or the players get tomorrow or regular day 168 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 4: or yes, So we'll a happy Thanksgiving to y'all, you 169 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 4: and your family.
