Speaker 2: All Right, welcome into this week's Ozone podcast, and I'm

00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,160
Speaker 2: joined today by Jaguars quarterbacks coach Spencer Whipple.

5
00:00:22,160 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 3: How does that sound? Sounds great? I mean, it sounds

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:25,119
Speaker 3: like a.

7
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:29,600
Speaker 1: Great opportunity, and you know, to do it with in

8
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 1: this organization, and then with people around me that I'm

9
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: you know, I know, and then meeting some of the

10
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: new people on staff, the players, just the building. Everything's

11
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: been great, just the transition in itself, and just just

12
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,279
Speaker 1: very fortunate for this opportunity to be here.

13
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 2: Now. We we talked a little bit before we started this.

14
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: It's a little tricky for me to get the entire

15
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 2: Whipple Cohen timeline, but take me through it if you will.

16
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 2: I know, your father, Mark Whipple, who is a test

17
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 2: Well coach for a long time, recruited Liam at U

18
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 2: Mass and that was where you guys first sort of

19
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 2: joined to know each other.

20
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 3: Correct.

21
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that was two thousand and three, was my

22
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: father's last season at U Mass and he was recruiting

23
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: him for that four season.

24
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 3: I believed to come in and I kind of.

25
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: Remember, I don't even know if Liam remembers this, but

26
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: being in a height in one of the gymnasiums on campus,

27
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: and they were holding a high school camp and Liam

28
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: was a very you know, sought out to recruit there

29
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: in the Northeast, coming out of a Rhode.

30
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 3: Island and I was still in high school at the time.

31
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: And they kind of did the camp and then afterwards

32
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: they did like a throwing session, and really what it

33
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 1: was was an evaluation of Liam for that program. But

34
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: I also kind of jumped in and mixed in because

35
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: I was just there and my dad was there, so

36
00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: I was getting some throws, but I didn't stack up

37
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: to what he put on display that day, because I

38
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: don't know if your members up.

39
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 3: But it was a good time.

40
00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think obviously when you cover people and

41
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 2: when fans get to know coaches who come through, they

42
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 2: know them in that moment. But he was a big

43
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 2: time player. Oh yeah, and in that area the country

44
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 2: is a is a big deal, right, Yes, yeah, he was.

45
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: I know, he's got all the records there a U

46
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 1: mass in terms of passing.

47
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 3: He played early on in his career.

48
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: I don't know what game it was, but he was

49
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: you know, he played for not played a lot of

50
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: football at UMass and they you know, each year they

51
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: played one or two you know, one a at the time,

52
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: which was called FBS teams, and they always held their

53
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 1: own And he had a very very successful career and

54
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: you know, like I said, broke a lot of records

55
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: Northeast U Mass whatever it may have been, and played

56
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 1: a lot of football and had a huge impact. And

57
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 1: really going back there when we all went back to

58
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: coach together, you could kind of see, you know, the

59
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 1: some of the legs he left. And then I ended

60
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: up going my second year at college, I transferred there

61
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: to U Mass. I ended up playing with Liam for

62
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: a season two and so I kind of saw it firsthand.

63
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,080
Speaker 2: So played with him for a season and then coached

64
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: with him at UMass. I guess the question would be,

65
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,640
Speaker 2: what is it about his approach about being in his

66
00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 2: system and working for him that excites you? Why?

67
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 3: You know, it's good to be friends with the guy,

68
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 3: But you.

69
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 2: Wouldn't change careers and change paths if you didn't believe

70
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,679
Speaker 2: in him. What do you believe about what's going on here?

71
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: I just think he you know, and he touched on

72
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: this as well, just his time that he's obviously we

73
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: all get exposed to a number of different people approaches

74
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: those things.

75
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 3: He was had the opportunity to go in.

76
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: LA with Sean and you know, learn all, you know,

77
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: that whole system, the way things are taught, the culture,

78
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 1: the offensive philosophy and those things. And I kind of

79
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: kept up with Liam, you know, as you know, we

80
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: played in the same division. I was with Arizona, he

81
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: was with LA, So i'd see him twice a year

82
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: and followed him when he went to Kentucky and kind

83
00:03:59,880 --> 00:04:02,760
Speaker 1: of would I would turn on his games there during

84
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 1: the season, after the season.

85
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 3: And just try to stay up with him.

86
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: And I just I just always thought he's always had

87
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: a you know, he's creative and he has a system

88
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: that we use, but he's also not afraid to go

89
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: outside the box, be creative and be explosive, always hunting

90
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: for those big plays, getting playmakers involved. So a lot

91
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: of the same things we had talked about when we

92
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: worked at UMass. And then he goes off and gets

93
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: a chance to go with the Rams and takes all

94
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: this knowledge and applies it and keeps growing. So he's

95
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: been exposed to a number of different people, but he's

96
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: always had a a football mind, you know, talking about

97
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: his days when he grew up and kind of sharing

98
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: that similarity with our fathers, and so we'd always we

99
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: always just enjoy talking football quarterback play, you know, at

100
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 1: any point, whether we're working together or not. It was

101
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 1: just always, you know, great things that we text called Hey,

102
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: what were you doing here on this play?

103
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 3: When you call this? What was your thought?

104
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 1: Did you think you were get to get this? And

105
00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,359
Speaker 1: so I've learned a ton from over the years, and

106
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: excit learn more.

107
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 2: What is it about growing up around a coach, especially

108
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 2: if you clearly it seems like you knew early on

109
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 2: you loved it. Why does it seem like your knowledge

110
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 2: maybe at a younger age, is advanced if you've been

111
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: around the coach when you were growing up, it's sort

112
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 2: of self explanatory. But do you feel like that's the

113
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 2: case just being around the game when you're a kid.

114
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's natural that you probably probably spend

115
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 1: a little more time around the game.

116
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:35,840
Speaker 3: I mean, I remember growing up and I just.

117
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 1: Kind of I just thought it was just kind of

118
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: the way of life, you know, that was just you

119
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 1: kind of go to the game and I get to

120
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,440
Speaker 1: take my ball and run around on the field and

121
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 1: be around the team in the locker room and the

122
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: meeting rooms and.

123
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 3: Watch a bunch of football. But you know, it comes with.

124
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: Sinks in and sinks in, and then you go to

125
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: high school and go through grade school and you just

126
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: want to It's something that's been a part of it

127
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,080
Speaker 1: for so long long that you you kind of just

128
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: you love, you get curious. You know, I enjoy watching film,

129
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 1: I enjoy watching games. I love what I do each day,

130
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: you know, in terms of coming in and seeing all

131
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: the new things that are happening around the league, being

132
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: able to implement things, how to help players, how to

133
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 1: help players grow and reach their potential. And so I've

134
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: been really fortunate to be around of great coaches, but

135
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: also coaches that are willing and able to share their

136
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: knowledge and you know, have a passion for helping other coaches. So,

137
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: you know, just a ton of names I've been involved around,

138
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: and I've gotten to know the great friends and close

139
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: friends and mentors that have taught me so much, and

140
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: so just their willingness to be open and share and

141
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 1: collaborative as we worked, you know, is really the why

142
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 1: I'm fortunate to to you know, keep growing every day

143
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: because of those.

144
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 2: People tell me about the quarterback coach's role. It's easy

145
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 2: to see it in the media again and say, okay, it's.

146
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 3: The quarterbacks coach.

147
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,960
Speaker 2: What do you feel like your responsibilities are on a

148
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 2: daily basis?

149
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 3: And I say.

150
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 2: Responsibilities top priorities. Uh, how do you help that player?

151
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 2: What's the key to it?

152
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 3: Yeah?

153
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,720
Speaker 1: I think you know, with our setup and we have

154
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 1: guys who have been around a number of great quarterbacks

155
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: that have played really well in this league in terms

156
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: of Liam and Grant, and so you know, my job

157
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 1: is just to carry out the message from Grant, from Liam,

158
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: you know how we're going to install and you know,

159
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 1: carry that through with a quarterback room and implement and

160
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,320
Speaker 1: you know, try to find ways and see how we

161
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 1: can you know, maybe improve and help and deliver that message.

162
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 1: And you know, we really have just scratched the surface

163
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: obviously from just starting this offseason program. But you know,

164
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 1: me and myself, those guys have come from a similar system,

165
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: Grant being in Minnesota and and Liam from LA and

166
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: you know, I've been a derivative of that.

167
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 3: West Coast system.

168
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: But for myself too, just finding time for myself to

169
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: learn a little bit more and and and then be

170
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 1: able to take that knowledge and and also carry out

171
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: out that message for the group and for all the

172
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: guys in the room and on offense a.

173
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 2: Ton of similarities with the cardinals for six years before this.

174
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: Offenses tend to sort of change and evolve and come

175
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 2: back to each other over time, if you will, similarities

176
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: between what you guys were doing in Arizona and what

177
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 2: you're seeing here.

178
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, there was in terms of terminology and some of

179
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: the things I've been used to and I've really been

180
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: around somewhat of the same system for quite a long

181
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 1: time in terms of where I was in college and

182
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 1: then had different exposures some other systems in Arizona which

183
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: were great just to see new things. And at the

184
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 1: end of the day, words will change, systems will change.

185
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: The neat thing about it is to be able to

186
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: compare and say, hey, I have the exact same concept

187
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: in this case, but you know, I've heard here's here's

188
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,800
Speaker 1: a maybe a better way to teach it, or here's

189
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 1: a better way that the players can grasp it, or

190
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: you know, this is maybe just a slight adjustment to

191
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: a certain route or a certain thing that you know,

192
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: Another team may do or coaches that I've gotten to

193
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: know here in the last couple of months may do,

194
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,679
Speaker 1: and you kind of note those things and you kind

195
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: of carry it with you. So always open, always, you know,

196
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: wanting to learn more and try to provide the best

197
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: stuff for the players, the best information, the best way

198
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: that they can learn it and they can comprehend and

199
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 1: turn execute on the field. And I think that's what

200
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: I'm constantly searching for.

201
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 2: We're a few minutes in and I know everybody's sitting

202
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 2: your wive and she ass the quarterbacks coach about the

203
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: quarterback yet, So tell me about him. A first impression

204
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 2: to Trevor Lawrence and what the beginning steps of working

205
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 2: with him have been.

206
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: Like, Yeah, he's just been unbelievable. I mean he's been

207
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: you know, just a great, great person at heart. He's

208
00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: super hard working, diligent, takes care of himself, he's eager

209
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: to learn, he wants to improve, you know, just in

210
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 1: the small time samples as we have here, but you

211
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: can just tell the guy he cares about it, you know,

212
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: the team and improvement and all the things that it

213
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: comes with playing the quarterback position, which which can be

214
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 1: a lot and He's just been great to work with,

215
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: these these you know this time we've been together. His

216
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: eagerness to find out more about this system. Hey, when

217
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: can I When can I learn a little bit more

218
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: or dig in? And so that's just that's when it

219
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: comes with being a you know, a high level.

220
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,079
Speaker 3: Quarterback in this league.

221
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: And he's just as far as in terms of a

222
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,079
Speaker 1: person and preparation just been unbelievable and just nothing but

223
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: you know, great things to say.

224
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 3: So far as we've been working with him. We can't

225
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 3: wait to keep keep going.

226
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 2: Got you the storyline so far? In last couple of weeks,

227
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 2: both of them have talked about it, Liam and Trever

228
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 2: how footwork and when we say foot with the quarterback,

229
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 2: it tends to get misunderstood a little bit. I think

230
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,880
Speaker 2: he's working on footwork, But tell me why footwork is

231
00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: so important.

232
00:10:57,679 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 3: In this system.

233
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 2: He touched on it publicly a couple of weeks ago

234
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 2: about how the timing of that really helps with reads.

235
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 3: You know more about it than I do. So why

236
00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 3: is it so important in this system?

237
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's built around you know, the system goes

238
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: back number, you know, number of years, and you know

239
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: a lot of the original things were from Walsh and

240
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: talked about, you know, the West Coast passing and obviously

241
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: it's grown since since then in a lot of different

242
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,600
Speaker 1: avenues in different ways. But really what you try to

243
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: do in the quarterback position and in terms of tying

244
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: it together with the offensive installation and the pass game

245
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: itself and even the run game in most cases, is

246
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: just to have a foundation, a set list of footwork

247
00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,680
Speaker 1: that you can adhere to. And I think what that

248
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,280
Speaker 1: does for a quarterback and really at any position of

249
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 1: you know, this is what you know we're kind of

250
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: expecting or asking you to do on.

251
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:55,240
Speaker 3: Every given play.

252
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 1: If you can get yourself as close to you know

253
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: what we're looking for in terms of a perspective, we

254
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: know the result is going to get us what we

255
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 1: want in terms of execution.

256
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 2: So, as Williams said, takes a little bit of thought

257
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 2: out of the I thought, but it playing with a

258
00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 2: clear mind is what he likes to.

259
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: It gives you a blueprint for you do it a

260
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: number of times over and over, and I know exactly

261
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 1: when I'm gonna throw this past concept. I'm going to

262
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: take this footwork and rhythm and that's going to time

263
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: up to get me back and is it always cut

264
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: and dry and clean like we're playing on a board. No,

265
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,920
Speaker 1: it's not. This is the super competitive league. Things change,

266
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: there's so many variables. But to be able to fall

267
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: back on that foundation that you have and can get

268
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 1: you in the right place.

269
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 3: Your feet are.

270
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: Speaking to you constantly and tell you where and how

271
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: to go with the football. I think it's just comforting

272
00:12:43,880 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 1: for a quarterback, you know, just to operate in a

273
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,439
Speaker 1: system like that where I know I can fall back

274
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 1: to this blueprint and you know, in most cases if

275
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 1: I'm close to it, good things should happen.

276
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 2: And fairly common for a quarterback who hasn't been in

277
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 2: this system to have to adjust to that little bit

278
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 2: right because you haven't done it before.

279
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you know, Trevor's the guy who's played

280
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: a lot of football through his career, so you know,

281
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 1: his exposure is you know, he's got a lot of

282
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 1: exposure to footwork, to playing quarterback, to those things you

283
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 1: know that it's talked about, so you know, just the

284
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 1: installation piece that we've had the talking through him, he's

285
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,920
Speaker 1: he's he's super dialed when it comes to footwork and

286
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: understanding and seeing the vision. Okay, Yeah, here's what Here's

287
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: what I see you're saying here, and I can see

288
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: exactly how this goes in.

289
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 3: And then the other piece of that is to that

290
00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 3: point of him playing.

291
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,439
Speaker 1: So much football, you know you kind of listen to

292
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,320
Speaker 1: him sometimes, Hey, what do you think on this? Do

293
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 1: you feel comfortable on this this given concept? You know,

294
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 1: maybe maybe taking this footwork and.

295
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 3: Feeling this out.

296
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: So he's been you know in terms of that, he's

297
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: got a great mindset, he's got a great approach and

298
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: you know, willing and eager to improvement.

299
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,720
Speaker 2: What has been back to Liam a little bit, what's

300
00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 2: been your biggest impression so far working with him as

301
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 2: a head coach in terms of that that adjustment being

302
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 2: in front of the room, being guiding the team. It

303
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 2: seems like it's a thing that he was, I want

304
00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 2: to say, born to do, but very comfortable in that room.

305
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 1: Yes, he's got great command, he's great with the players,

306
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 1: he's demanding, he knows how to hold accountability.

307
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 3: You know, just the message he's delivered over the course.

308
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: The less you know, since we've been together with the team,

309
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: I think has been has been great and it's been

310
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: clear cut, concise. You know players are you know, able

311
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: to hear that.

312
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 3: And take that message and go with it.

313
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,880
Speaker 1: And then you know, he just has an infectious personality

314
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: getting around, you know, talking to the guys and and

315
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: then you know, just like we all are, he loves ball.

316

Speaker 1: command and having the influence in terms of culture and team.

Speaker 1: You know, he's he's a football guy at heart, So

320
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 1: just being able to you know, for him to have

00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 1: a conversation in a hallway or meeting, hey, here's here's

Speaker 1: could see it adjusted, or here's how I can help you.

324
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,160
Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, that's what you know, coaches,

325
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 1: you know, we're here to do is serve the players

Speaker 1: and help them grow and and he's just it's been

327
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: fun to watch him, you know, from knowing him so

328
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: long and watch him in this role and you know,

329
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,720
Speaker 1: just just see him, you know, do so well, you know.

330
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:23,000
Speaker 3: Is there stuff do you see?

331
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: And if the answers no, it's fine. Do you see

332
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 2: ever any of your dad's.

333
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 3: Influence in him?

334
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 2: Anything that you know because he he coached under him,

335
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 2: for a little while.

336
00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it was his first a sort of

337
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,240
Speaker 3: big times job. Do you see any of that in him? Ever,

338
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 3: I can't say.

339
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: I can't say for certain if if he, if he does,

340
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 1: I think i'd probably I'd probably know it because.

341
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 3: I've heard of my whole life.

342
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: So but yeah, if he, if he will see how

343
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: when the bullets start flying, or you know, if he

344
00:15:56,400 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: you know, lose his cool or you know there's something

345
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 1: then or you know, if there's certain things he may say.

346
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: But now, I haven't seen anything just yet. You know,

347
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 1: Liam has been around a ton of different people, and

348
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: sure at the end of the day, he's kind of

349
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: you know, he's himself first and then has those influences.

350
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 3: So I can't point to anything just yet.

351
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 2: What a final thing and then we'll move on to

352
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 2: what we call the ozone five. Why ready now? I

353
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 2: mean meaning as a quarterbacks coach, where are you better

354
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 2: than you would have been five years ago for this job?

355
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 3: It's a great question.

356
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: And I thought of this through my career because I

357
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 1: played quarterback growing up, and when I got into coaching,

358
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: the first room I got in and my first year

359
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: was the quarterback room, and I didn't get in back

360
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: into that room until one year in twenty eighteen. Until now,

361
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 1: I've spent some time in and out in Arizona, but

362
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 1: around it, the bulk of it had been, you know,

363
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: in different position rooms, you know, whether it be tight end, receiver,

364
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 1: you know, even stopping in the offensive line room, running back,

365
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: having coach in the running.

366
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,280
Speaker 3: Back room for a year.

367
00:17:07,080 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 1: So those things have kind of to to grow up

368
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:12,720
Speaker 1: through my life and always being on quarterback and not

369
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 1: really you know, knowing what's going on, but not knowing

370
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:18,679
Speaker 1: the interest keys intricacies of other positions and having that

371
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 1: ability to get in that room and and.

372
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 3: See different things.

373
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: I think that I was super fortunate to be able

374
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: to take a lot of those things and now kind of,

375
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: you know, have that different perspective for the quarterback room.

376
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: And while that whole time was going on in different positions,

377
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: that at heart, my my my favorite position is that

378
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: is the quarterbacks being in that quarterback room, and That's

379
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:43,119
Speaker 1: what I've grown up doing. So but just to have

380
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:46,439
Speaker 1: an opportunity to take those things working on defense and

381
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 1: take those things back with me into the quarterback room

382
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: and to be able to talk the language with them,

383
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: I'm just super grateful for it because I think that

384
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: you know, that's helped me a bunch.

385
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 2: That sounds like a like an OC and head coaches

386
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 2: as I eventually.

387
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,239
Speaker 1: Just I'm just happy right now that I have this

388
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: role and and learning and helping and like I said,

389
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,160
Speaker 1: I just I love coming to work each day.

390
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:13,719
Speaker 3: I really do.

391
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,760
Speaker 1: It's just something I It's not work for me, it's

392
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,480
Speaker 1: a passion and I'm you know, super passionate and fired.

393
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 3: Up to be here.

394
00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,119
Speaker 2: Got you the final thing we do, we call it

395
00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:26,080
Speaker 2: the ozone five. It's five quick fun questions. Uh, Spencer Whipple,

396
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:27,520
Speaker 2: what was your last binge watch?

397
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 3: Binge watch?

398
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,159
Speaker 1: I might have to get my wife to tell me

399
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 1: what we watched, but she's she's more up on the shows.

400
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 3: But I, uh man, if.

401
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 1: There's a good show out, we try to watch it

402
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: and sit down sometimes that we don't. I know, there's

403
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: big ones. I always see him talked about throughout the country.

404
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: My favorite show of all time was The Office, and.

405
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,199
Speaker 3: So that was my watching The Office right now.

406
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was something that I had watched in high

407
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:56,480
Speaker 1: school even or growing up, and uh now it's now

408
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: I walk into and it's always on the TV. It's

409
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: it's taken off some of the so so I'll sit

410
00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 1: down and you know, I don't necessarily binge watch it anymore,

411
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:04,439
Speaker 1: but I'll watch it.

412
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 3: If it's on.

413
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: And but in terms of any new shows, I can't

414
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: quite put my fingers any new ones.

415
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:14,240
Speaker 2: The last song you heard on the way in this morning, man,

416
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 2: I think I was.

417
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 3: I might have been just kind of riding in. I

418
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 3: can't remember what song.

419
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,120
Speaker 1: I know I got to work out this morning and

420
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: and Coach Giano had some some classic rock on which I.

421
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 3: Enjoy so they so we had a little I know,

422
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 3: there was a CDC. He was rolling Stones.

423
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 1: There was a little grunge music in there, nineties alternatives,

424
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: so that was the he had it kind of rocking

425
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: in there, so it was it was good. That was

426
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 1: probably the last thing I listened to. I'm pretty diverse

427
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: and it comes to music. There's not much that I

428
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:43,800
Speaker 1: don't care to listen.

429
00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 3: For good deal. Uh your best football memory, Wow, this

430
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 3: is tough one.

431
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: There's just so many moments that can come to me

432
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 1: and I think, uh, just learning experiences through this whole

433
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: time growing up playing from I think it always comes

434
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,399
Speaker 1: back to the people that you're around and those relationships

435
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 1: that you built, because ultimately that's what that's what it's about.

436
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,960
Speaker 1: And when you're in the moment, it's the work, the work,

437
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 1: the work. And as you look back and reflect on

438
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 1: those times where you've you've grown and people have helped

439
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 1: you and you know, reached out and and and we're

440
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 1: willing and able to you know, coach you up and

441
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 1: give you knowledge, those are the things that carry with

442
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:23,719
Speaker 1: me and think about because at the end of the day,

443
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:25,399
Speaker 1: it's a it's a relationship, it's a.

444
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 3: People's business, it's a people's.

445
00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 1: Game, and so those are the moments, those those people

446
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 1: that I've come in contact with and doing so now

447
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: that that always going to stand out for me.

448
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 2: Got you, Uh, sport other than football that you were

449
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:39,280
Speaker 2: good at?

450
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 3: Oh Man?

451
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: I played baseball and basketball a little bit growing up,

452
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: and golf quite a bit growing up. But I just

453
00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: every all my I felt like I poured all my love,

454
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 1: my heart, my soul into into football. So there wasn't

455
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 1: one sport other than football that I that I could

456
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: say I was actually really a good player.

457
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 3: At the UH.

458
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 2: I'm assuming this is pretty obvious in your case. The

459
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 2: person most responsible before you be in here.

460
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 3: I'd say my father, you know, my dad, and he.

461
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,040
Speaker 2: Can come up what he meant. I mean, I know,

462
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: it's so much because the career, you know.

463
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,040
Speaker 1: And that's and that's part of also my family, my

464
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 1: mom and my brother and just by the whole family experience.

465
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: But to the lessons that he's he's taught, man, continue

466
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: to teach me just growing up and especially not just football,

467
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 1: but in life and and the things you take with you,

468
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: but but certainly the game itself. And I was just

469
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: fortunate to have him as a resource, you know, him

470
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 1: going through the coaching and you know, maybe took him

471
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 1: quite a.
