I wanted 19 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: to say about ten times I got to sit in 20 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 1: the green rope with the players getting drafted and and 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: watching their faces and their mom and her father and 22 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 1: there you know, and you see it's a life changing 23 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 1: moment for them.

And you know, we always said 29 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 1: to say, if the Jaguar selected, how good does it 30 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: feel that it's now official and it really happens. Well, 31 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: I feel really good because we did our due diligence. 32 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: That wasn't We didn't make that decision back in November. 33 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: You know, certainly I wasn't here. And then we went 34 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: into it high eyes and ears wide open. We did 35 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: zoom calls and listened and it was not given to anybody. 36 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: I don't believe in the deal. And there's just like 37 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: Trevor's not gonna be given a starting job. You know, 38 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: everything in this organization has earned and Trevor Lawrence earned 39 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: the first pick of the draft. I will add this 40 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: to just about our culture. The best thing going right now. 41 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to forget about our current players. You know, 42 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: this is really important, But even more important is what's 43 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: going on in this building. H thank no mistake that 44 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,080 Speaker 1: Jaguars got very good players.

Hart plenty more with Urban Meyer and Trent 48 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 1: Balky available on the team website. Let's move to Wednesday's 49 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 1: Huddle Up podcast. NFL Network analyst Bucky Brooks, Jaguars dot 50 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: Com senior writer John Osier and yours Truly discussed the 51 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,079 Speaker 1: star power of Trevor Lawrence and it could be the 52 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: biggest star on and off the field to join the 53 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: league since another quarterback that wore number sixteen in college. 54 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 1: You could make the argument this is the biggest star 55 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: to enter the NFL since Peyton Manning entered the NFL up. 56 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: You know what I mean by that, the brand being 57 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: so established. Everybody knew who Peyton Manning was. JP. I 58 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,359 Speaker 1: think you're old enough to have remember his college years. 59 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: Everybody knew Peyton and the whole Heisman stuff. I mean, 60 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 1: this was a huge brand name to enter the league. 61 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: I don't know that there's been a bigger brand, a 62 00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: more well known superstar. Everybody sort of loves this kid. 63 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: Everybody knows who he is. Has there been one since him? 64 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 1: I mean, this is the biggest star to enter league 65 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:34,360 Speaker 1: in twenty three years. I'm not sure it's that close. Yeah, 66 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: Mike was Mike Vick. He was a big name, but 67 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: it wasn't this well, and I guess the combination of 68 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 1: it big star, which I don't think anybody would doubt 69 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: the Lawrence is a star. Vic was a big star. 70 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: I mean he was a big deal, but there were 71 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: questions about what that was going to look like, meaning 72 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: how well his game would translate a prototyl. I mean, 73 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: there was all sorts of stuff that you weren't quite 74 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: sure what kind of quarterback he would be, which I 75 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: think that was a fairly fair question all throughout his career. 76 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: A mega star, but you weren't sure that that was 77 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: going to be a great quarterback. It turned out to 78 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: be Luck, sort of the opposite of that. I think 79 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: with Luck, you knew. I don't think there's ever been 80 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: a quarterback. I've never seen a quarterback that I knew 81 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: for sure it was going to be as great as 82 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck when he was coming out. I was dead 83 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: sure he was going to be great, but he wasn't 84 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 1: quite the star that Lawrence and Manning were. Football people 85 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: loved Luck, but he had played at Stanford. They had 86 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: been on TV some, but there was not the brand 87 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: name of Andrew Luck. I don't think there's a Trevor 88 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: Lawrence Bucky. I don't know if you see it that way. Yeah, 89 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: no, no no, I think I see it exactly how you 90 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: see it. Trevor Lawrence is clearly a bigger star than 91 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck was. Andrew Luck was celebrated and lauded as 92 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: a potential number one picked for a long time, but 93 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: he didn't have the star power. Some of that has 94 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: to do with, uh, Trevor Lawrence playing on a big stage, 95 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,119 Speaker 1: winning the national title as a freshman and having three 96 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,159 Speaker 1: years of that to continue to build and establish his brand. 97 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 1: There's something to that, and let's be honest. Also, like 98 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence plays in the Southeast, he doesn't play in 99 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: the SEC. But Dabo Swinney had wanted to build a 100 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: team that was SEC like and so the way they 101 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 1: played the brand of football the proximity from Clemson to Jacksonville, 102 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: but really Clempson being a brand, being a team that 103 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: is always in the College Football Playoff. I mean, I 104 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,480 Speaker 1: feel like we saw Trevor Lawrence every weekend, particularly when 105 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: it mattered, and the face of the sport. Yeah, and 106 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: you always it was yeah. So so, so Trevor comes 107 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: in with the level of cash and recognition that we 108 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: haven't seen since paid Manning inter the league, like because 109 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: Peyton was there, and Peyton went back for that fourth year, 110 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,279 Speaker 1: he went back for a senior year that even further 111 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 1: establishes brand. And so Trevor certainly is and certainly in 112 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 1: the league with a different level of cashade and some 113 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,239 Speaker 1: of these other number one picks will enter and Peyton 114 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 1: didn't win the Heisman. Think about that. I mean, that's 115 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: crazy to go back and think about that. Charles Wilson, 116 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 1: that was the Charles Woodson year. It was unbelievable. But 117 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: Charles Woods that stick that it does. He never told 118 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: me that he couldn't be Florida. He could darn Shirt 119 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: beat Alabama. Fact, Holy smokes. The Huddle Up Podcast runs 120 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 1: Wednesday mornings on the Jaguars Official podcast Network. Staying with 121 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 1: the Lawrence star Power conversation before last football season. We 122 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: saw him leverage that star power. He was a leader 123 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 1: in the social injustice matters of last summer for the 124 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: Clemson team and was a major part of the we 125 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: want to play narrative when conferences were deciding whether or 126 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 1: not to have a college football season. The voice of 127 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: the Clemson Tigers, Don Munson, joined me last Friday to 128 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 1: explain his work off the field was vital for this 129 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: past season to really go off. I think that this 130 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: past summer for for Trevor was of immense importance to 131 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: be where he is today as as the number one 132 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: overall pick in the draft, because he grew up as 133 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: a young man is what he did. He he realized 134 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: the platform that he had, He realized the significance that 135 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 1: he had in the college game. Certainly, he's the He 136 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: was the face of the Clemson program, and if you're 137 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 1: the face of the Clemson program, it means you're gonna 138 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 1: be one of the faces of college football at this 139 00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: point in time. And he again, he just he went 140 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 1: out and he did the things that needed to be done. 141 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: He was he and a walk on. Darien Rencher, who 142 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: plays running back for us. Those were to the guys 143 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: here that in the social injustice part. They were the 144 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: ones that put together the zoom call with about players 145 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: from all over the country. And so that's where that 146 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: kind of started. And then you know that the hashtag 147 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: we want to play. You know, he was obviously behind 148 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: behind that as well. So he realizes that, I think 149 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: the influence that he can have in a community. Uh 150 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: and if you're not if you're not in Jacksonville and 151 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: you're not excited about that, just that one aspect that 152 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 1: he will bring to this franchise. Let me tell you 153 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 1: right now, he's already made your franchise way better without 154 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: ever playing it down. And he's he is just that 155 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: kind of of individual that is just going to draw 156 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: people to him and then and then when he's there, 157 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: he is a great servant leader. Believe me.

Give us that five star rating as always. 191 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 1: Late last week, we got the Clemson perspective of the 192 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence and Travis E t N selections from Eric McLane. 193 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: He's a former Clemson offensive lineman but is now an 194 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 1: analyst for a CC network and ESPN. We discussed how 195 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: Lawrence's play helped everyone around him on offense, plus what 196 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: strides eat N made for the Tigers, how did he 197 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 1: improve the play of those receivers and the skill guys 198 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 1: around him? And his three years of Clempson they were 199 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: pretty darn good anyway. But when you have that type 200 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: of accuracy and dependability at quarterback, it can only lift 201 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: all the ships. The rising tide raises all ships. It 202 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: feels like there's no question, and there's also no question 203 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: that he did have great receivers. I mean we look 204 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,079 Speaker 1: at these guys in the league now, some guys that 205 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: are gonna be coming behind him, and I think, really, 206 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: you know, you saw that his sophomore year where you know, 207 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: maybe he was reliant too much on the receiver and 208 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: he would throw up some balls that he knew his 209 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 1: guys could make, but it was a dangerous pass. You 210 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: saw that evolution from sophomare to junior year where Okay, 211 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw guys open, I'm gonna throw you to 212 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: where you need to be and I'm gonna trust that 213 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: you can get there. And I think that's the difference 214 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 1: that you know he understands and it rightfully. So as 215 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: a sophomore, I mean, this guy just went undefeated, broke 216 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: every record possible as a freshman. Why not throw some 217 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 1: stuff up, let's see what happens. Uh. And then, like 218 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: I said, you saw him get better to where it's okay, 219 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take it all in my control. He had 220 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: a little bit smaller receivers this year. He didn't have 221 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: that big you know, six four or six five T Higgins, 222 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 1: justin Ross who was hurt, who will be coming back 223 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 1: for Clemson, So he had to be much more accurate, 224 00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: much more precise with his throws. But I think it's 225 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 1: great experience to have both. You know, if the Jaguars 226 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: go out and get a bigger, taller receiver, he's done that. 227 00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: If they keep the guys that they have now, those 228 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 1: compact six two six ft receivers, He's used to throw 229 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: into those guys as well. Eric McLane with us from 230 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: a CC network, let's it also helps a quarterback with 231 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: a running game, and Travis E. T N is the 232 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 1: all time rushing leader in Atlantic Coast Conference history. He's 233 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: got that unbelievable speed. We've seen him and so many 234 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 1: breakaway touchdown plays at Clemson over the last four years 235 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: or so. How do you compare his game? Is there 236 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: back NFL back in the past do you do? Do 237 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 1: you even do that? First of all? In second, what 238 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: is the best part of his game to you? Yeah, 239 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,720 Speaker 1: I think when you look at what he has become 240 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: and the evolution that we have seen Travis E. T 241 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: N over these last couple of years, You've got to 242 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 1: look at Alvin Kamara and a guy that is so 243 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,319 Speaker 1: versatile as a receiver as a pass catcher out of 244 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: the backfield, but also very effective as a runner as well. 245 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: I think that's exactly what Travis can become or wasn't 246 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: college and can be in the NFL. It's all gonna 247 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: be about, you know what that coaching staff wants to 248 00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: do with him. And that didn't just happen overnight. You know. 249 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 1: I remember early on his freshman year he couldn't catch 250 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 1: a pitch out of the backfield, let alone line up 251 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: in the slot and run a route. Uh. And now 252 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: he saw that he identified, Okay, this is a real 253 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: weakness of my game. I need to improve on it. 254 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 1: And spent hours and hours after practice not official workouts 255 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: with Trevor with a Maari Rodgers, a great receiver in 256 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: this draft, and said, I want to get better catching 257 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: the ball. So he's on the jug machine, he's on 258 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: the tennis ball machine catching on one hand, and he's 259 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: got the blinders where he can't see and can't look down, 260 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: you know, doing all this thing with hot hand eye coordination, 261 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 1: and you see the results. So so he is a 262 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 1: guy that is so committed to being the best version 263 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: of himself. Whatever the Jaguars asked, I mean, if it's 264 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 1: gained a little bit of weight, if it's get bigger, 265 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 1: here work on this. Uh, he's gonna do it, and 266 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: he's gonna do it very quickly and be very dedicated. 267 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: So when you look at his game, you talk about 268 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: what is the best piece, you know, it's got to 269 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: be just He's a home run waiting to happen. You know. 270 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,559 Speaker 1: He came on my podcast. We discussed that, and that's 271 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,760 Speaker 1: what I asked. I said, if I'm an NFL GM, 272 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: why am I drafting you? And then that's what he said, 273 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: you know, I am a touchdown waiting to happen. And 274 00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: I think it's true. I mean, the guy scored seventy 275 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,679 Speaker 1: eight touchdowns in his career. The a c C leader 276 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 1: was truly remarkable to watch, but catching the ball out 277 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 1: of the backfield, that's a close second. Our thanks to 278 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:27,280 Speaker 1: everyone with ESPN and a CC Network for the conversation 279 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: with Eric McLane last week. Moving along to the ozone podcast, 280 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: John Osian's guest this week someone who's been around the 281 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: organization a good bit recently. NFL Network reporter Judy Batista. 282 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 1: She had insight access to Jaguar's owner's shod con late 283 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: last week and had more insight to Urban Meyer's sports 284 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 1: performance plans. Tell me about your impressions with Shod and 285 00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 1: I dig a little deeper on his giddiness. What overall 286 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: is he most excited about. I think he's excited about 287 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: not just Trevor Lawrence person and not just urban Meyer 288 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: the person. But he called this a transformational moment for 289 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: the franchise. I think he just feels good about the 290 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: direction they're going in, refreshed about UM that you know, 291 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: the state of the franchise and the future of the franchise. UM. 292 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: He's obviously very excited about Trevor, but he the way 293 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: he put it to me was he felt like he 294 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 1: didn't just have the first overall draft pick in the draft, 295 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: but he also had the first overall pick of head coaches. UM. 296 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: He's not surprisingly very high on urban Meyer and on 297 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: all the things Urban wants to do UM to sort 298 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: of modernize the franchise. He you know, he was shot 299 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: was pretty candid about you know, you can have the 300 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: same principles about winning and and competing, but you've got 301 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 1: to have twenty one century practices. You can't have you 302 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: can't think that the game is being played and that 303 00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 1: athletes are being handled the way they were in the 304 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 1: twentieth century. And expect to succeed in the twenty first century. 305 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: That's just not how it goes anymore. UM. And so 306 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: I think he feels quite good about the direction that 307 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: Urban Meyer is going to take the franchise in. I mean, 308 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 1: you know you know this, but I mean Urban has 309 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: his hands on everything, and he's been given really carte 310 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: blanche to reshape the franchise, you know, top down, UM. 311 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 1: And I talked to Urban quite a bit about that. Like, 312 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: you know, we always use the term culture change. How 313 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: do you change the culture of a franchise, UM, when 314 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: you can't even get on the field for five months? 315 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 1: I mean, what do you do in the meantime? Obviously 316 00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: the best culture change is to win games? But what 317 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: do you do in the meantime to get to that point? 318 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: And so I talked to Urban for quite a while 319 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: about that. I guess the follow up, what did he say? 320 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: What were some of the high points, uh, that he 321 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 1: thinks he can get changed? Well, he really emphasized he 322 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: thinks the biggest change they've already made is too sports 323 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: performance And that's really, you know, like a catch all 324 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 1: term for how you take care of players, how you 325 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: treat play years. He really emphasizes like things should be 326 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 1: you should have the best of the best for the players, 327 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: Like this should be a franchise built around supporting the 328 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 1: players and doing everything you can to maximize the players, 329 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: which is not just good for the team, it's good 330 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: for the players, right. And and that means everything from 331 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 1: you know, nutrition, uh, treatment facilities, right, recovery facilities, um, 332 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: you know, personalized attention to their diets, personalized attention to 333 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: their weightlifting regiment, just everything geared to getting the most 334 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: out of players. And of course players like that. They 335 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: want their bodies to be taken care of and that 336 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: maximizes their career and obviously their earnings that go along 337 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 1: with it. And certainly it has benefits for the team, right, 338 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: I mean, if players are performing at their peak, that's 339 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: that's good for the team generally. So he really has 340 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 1: emphasized that, and he said he's been interested in that 341 00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 1: since he was a receiver's coach at Colorado State, Like 342 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 1: he used to send his receivers to go run track 343 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,560 Speaker 1: on the theory that the track coaches know how to 344 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,159 Speaker 1: teach speed. He didn't know how to teach speed, but 345 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: they knew how to teach speed. So he's always been 346 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: sort of interested in that, and but he said, you know, 347 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 1: it's hard to do it at college. They did it 348 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: at Ohio State because they have obviously have big resources 349 00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: at Ohio State, Bea says, most college programs, you know, 350 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: don't have those kinds of resources. Obviously, NFL teams have 351 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: those kinds of resources and you should be using them, right. 352 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 1: I mean, his feeling is, you know, the modern athlete, 353 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: as he put it, it's like a high performance sports 354 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: car and you have to maintain it like a high 355 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: performance sports car car or just like a sports car, 356 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 1: it will break down. You do not want players breaking down. 357 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: And he said he was really inspired by you know, 358 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 1: he would talk to his old players from Florida and 359 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 1: Ohio State who would go into the NFL and then 360 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 1: their careers would end kind of prematurely, and he and 361 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: ask him, you know, what the heck happened, like, you know, 362 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: I know, you've got gas left in the tank. And 363 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 1: they would tell him, you know, they don't take care 364 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 1: of your bodies in the NFL. And so that's always 365 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 1: been in his head that you know, you've got to 366 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 1: take care of these guys. And he wants, you know, 367 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: if guys want dry needling and acupuncture and plunge pools, 368 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,199 Speaker 1: then that's what they should have. That Jaguars should be 369 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: supplying that. You know, you shouldn't have to go outside 370 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 1: to find somebody to do dry needling. Why wouldn't the 371 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,639 Speaker 1: franchise provide that. So that was a big point of 372 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 1: emphasis for him, and I think it's going to be 373 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: a huge point of emphasis going forward for the franchise. 374 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 1: Check out the full Ozone podcast now on the Jaguars 375 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: Official podcast network.

Daniel, 379 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: good to see you, man. I'm shocked you're not on 380 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: vacation yet. By the way, not tomorrow. This is it. 381 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: This is this is the last night that then I'm 382 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: a pumpkin. So uh, it's it takes about four days 383 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,959 Speaker 1: to kind to wrap your arms around everything that just happened, 384 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 1: and then after that I'm done. Well, everything that happened 385 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 1: here seems pretty positive for the Jaguars. First NFL Draft 386 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 1: for Urban Meyer. Of course, Trent Balky has been through 387 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: this a few times. Them working together, it seemed like 388 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:17,480 Speaker 1: a smooth transition, working with each other identifying the type 389 00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: of players that Urban wants to the organization, and then 390 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: Balky executing the draft them together, going out and getting 391 00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,080 Speaker 1: the prototypical type guys that they want to build here. Yeah, 392 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: it was definitely a first off the bus draft. I mean, 393 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 1: when you look at the guys that they got, they 394 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: fit all the all the measurables that you'll be looking 395 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: for here. So a lot of them were high you know, 396 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,959 Speaker 1: big time, big time recruits that I'm sure Urban had 397 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: a relationship with. And I talked to um at the 398 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: high school level and they a lot of name brand programs. 399 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 1: It was just, uh, yeah, it was interesting that it 400 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: was kind of a theme that kind of followed them 401 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: throughout this draft. But uh, they're gonna look, They're gonna 402 00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: look the part when they get off the bus next year. 403 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 1: I can promise you that.
