1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:01,880
Speaker 1: The TV clip showed.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:07,119
Speaker 2: Brandon Brown on the sideline talking to your quarterbacks yesterday.

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 3: I wasn't there, but I was curious.

4
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:11,559
Speaker 1: How common is that for you to have the front

5
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: office Joe Brandon, especially on the sideline, And is that

6
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,520
Speaker 1: like them being part of strategy or why you have

7
00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: the front office talking to your quarterbacks during games?

8
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not because of strategy. If we're on the

9
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 4: road game in the front office doesn't have a box,

10
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 4: then they come down on the sideline, which just happened,

11
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 4: say a number of times, is that.

12
00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 1: Something something you welcome? Like my research this morning tells

13
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,479
Speaker 1: me it's rare but not unheard of.

14
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,360
Speaker 3: So is that something you welcome because of the collaborative

15
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 3: process here?

16
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:51,520
Speaker 5: Yeah?

17
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: I think.

18
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 4: I mean they go down and watch the game from

19
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 4: the sideline instead of up in the box. So that's

20
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 4: that's what they're doing watching a game.

21
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 5: Yep.

22
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: Oh sure, I'm wondering how do you divide up, you know,

23
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 2: after games, when you're.

24
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 3: You know, after a loss or something and you know

25
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 3: a lot of times say it's on me, blame me,

26
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 3: that was a bad call, things like that, and dividing

27
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 3: that up, which is which is pointing out mistakes in

28
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 3: players that players do. Obviously, there are mistakes that happen,

29
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 3: and sometimes you point them out.

30
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:34,120
Speaker 1: Most often you don't.

31
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 3: How do you kind of figure out what's the right

32
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 3: strategy there?

33
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, we have team meetings, you know, after games,

34
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 4: and and go through go through the tape, you know,

35
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 4: big picture stuff, and you know, we talk about things

36
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 4: that we can correct in those meetings and improvements that

37
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 4: we need to make, or specific plays whatever.

38
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 5: It may be, situational stuff.

39
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 4: But but after a game, you know, you like to

40
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 4: go back and watch it and then you talk to

41
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 4: the players about it and talk to the coaches and

42
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 4: you know, do the things you need to do to

43
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 4: try to correct.

44
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 3: It's something about being public. You know, coaches have used

45
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 3: public to criticize or to point out things. You don't

46
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 3: do that very often. Is that just a philosophical thing

47
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 3: that you you you know, you take it to the

48
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,960
Speaker 3: player and not put it out.

49
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's important.

50
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 5: It's important for.

51
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 4: Me to you know, talk to other it's the players

52
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 4: or the coaches, to go ahead and make the corrections.

53
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,640
Speaker 4: You know, everybody's going to make a mistake and you

54
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 4: try to fix it.

55
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:41,079
Speaker 5: But I'll do that.

56
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 4: You know in team meetings, these guys put a lot

57
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 4: of a lot of effort into things everybody does and

58
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 4: you know, good or bad when we go through it.

59
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 4: You know, that's the setting that I choose to do

60
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 4: it in. But again, I'm the head coach, so I'm

61
00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 4: the head coach.

62
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,040
Speaker 5: I'll accept responsibility.

63
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 2: Mhm.

64
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,919
Speaker 1: Do you feel that that gives you.

65
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 3: Some equity with players? You know when when when you

66
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 3: know that you know that you got to tell to

67
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 3: him straight, but you're telling to him straight behind, you know,

68
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 3: in the building and not out in public.

69
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, Look, I just try to do what what

70
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 4: I think is best for for the football team, for

71
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 4: the players, for the coaches, And you know that's that's

72
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 4: the way I approach it.

73
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 3: Than you.

74
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 5: Yep.

75
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: H Hey, Brian, you know I think that's I think

76
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: there's a Brian. I think there's a natural inclination to

77
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: sort of say, at this point, kind of the season

78
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: can end fast enough, right, how do you how do

79
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:46,240
Speaker 1: you keep focused on the two games and not the

80
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: obvious changes that are going to happen in everybody's lives

81
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: one way or another. After these two games, Well.

82
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 5: You just focus, you focus on the next game.

83
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 4: Tom So we have a we have a game here

Speaker 4: every week, and you focus on the task at hand.

87
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: I had another question about g v R just kind

88
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 1: of what you've seen, what you've gotten from him. I

89

Speaker 1: know you brought him in. You know, I's a player,

90
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: but the leader and what you've how he's filled out

91
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:21,440

Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, you know Karen had him at Vegas

00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 5: You know, does everything the right way.

95
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,159
Speaker 4: You know, how he how he is in the meeting rooms,

96
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 4: how he is in a practice film, how he is

97
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 4: with the players when they have extra meetings, how he

98
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 4: is a communicator on the offensive line. He's been He's

99
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 4: been a good, good veteran presence for our football team.

100
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: Thanks ye canidate. Hey Brian, how you doing?

00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 6: Have you made a decision on how you're going to

103
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:02,040
Speaker 6: proceed this week with it? Back? Uh?

104
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, we we just we watched the tape.

105
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,440
Speaker 4: Drew is Drew is actually getting an MRI today, So

106
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 4: again where that's at He's getting that I think at

107
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 4: eleven thirty or twelve today, So I'll have more information

108
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 4: relative to you know, what that's about and if it's anything,

109
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 4: If it's not anything, usually guys are sore the next day.

110
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 4: So you know, we'll see where he's at after after today,

111
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 4: and the MRI is on one, it's on his shoulder, Okay.

112
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 6: And the other question I have is, I mean, we

113
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 6: also have panic yesterday and he looked like he played

114
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 6: pretty well, is it. I mean, this seems like an

115
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 6: obvious question, but how important is it to have a

116
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 6: young guy looks like he can control the situation and

117
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,239
Speaker 6: be a team's quarterback of the future.

118
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'd say it's very important.

119
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, Evan Barnes.

120
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 7: Just looking at turn On Tracy, he had that that

121
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 7: touchdown back in the game. So just at this point

122
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 7: of the season, we all we always talk about the

123
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 7: league and just what he's done this year, but just

124
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 7: how have you been impressed with Tracy's growth, just you know,

125
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 7: getting more comfortable this first season?

126
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, he's he has more carries uh this

127
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 4: year than he had his last couple of years in college.

128
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,839
Speaker 4: You know, he's he's continuing to get better. We're asking

129
00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,919
Speaker 4: him to do different things. You know, obviously being a

130
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 4: former receiver and now you know, then a running back

131
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 4: and now running back here. He's I think he's got

132
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,720
Speaker 4: a good mentor and motor. Joel Thomas does a good

133
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 4: job with him. You know, he's been productive when he's

134
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 4: touched the ball both in the run in the past game,

135
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 4: and you know, a good young player to continue to

136
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 4: work with and develop.

137
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 5: I think he's got a bright future.

138
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,600
Speaker 7: And then second we saw Michael went down, is is

139
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 7: there any update yet on on how he's looking.

140
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 5: No update.

141
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 4: He's getting looked at here a little bit later, but

142
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 4: he's uh, you know, he had a burner, so we'll

143
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 4: see where that's appened.

144
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 5: Yep. Charley Carroll, Charlotte.

145
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 7: Just to clarify as Drew getting the MRI on his

146
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 7: throwing shoulder.

147
00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's his uh, it's his right shoulder again.

148
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 4: It could be it could be nothing, Charlotte. I just

149
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 4: they just gave it to me before I came down here,

150
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 4: and we'll see where it's at.

151
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,640
Speaker 7: Any other injury updates.

152
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 5: I just had.

153
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 4: You know, Michael is going to get looked at here.

154
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 4: You Tracy kind of reaggravated his ankle a little bit,

155
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 4: and so did John Michael.

156
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 5: So I got so far.

157
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 6: Okay, are they. I know it's early in the week.

158
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 6: I know the drill.

159
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 5: Yeah,
