Speaker 1: the alumni at the Thursday practice today, Amy well First,

10
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,400

00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: more of the alumni coming back are people that I've

12
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 1: worked with. Now, when you've been someplace for a decade,

13
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: I guess that happens, but normally yeah, but it was.

14
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: It was so good to see everybody come back. More

15
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: and more people are choosing to move to Nashville, and

16
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: so that's always fun to hear that. People are kind

17
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: of you know, they play in their respective teams and

18
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,759
Speaker 1: then they come back to Nashville to settle down because

19
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:08,960
Speaker 1: there's no place like home. There is no place like

20
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:11,559
Speaker 1: m Coach Mack, how many of your guys were here today,

21
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: all of them that live in this area. It was great.

22
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: Retina and Amy were upstairs, you know where they're they're

23
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 1: all gathered, and what I really like not only seeing

24
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: the guys with their families. I mean, you know, I

25
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: mean Karl Kluge was up there, one of my all

26
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,120
Speaker 1: time favorites. Was talking to him, and he and his

27
00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: wife and then he had a whole gang with him

28
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: and a litter of childress got He's got little stair

29
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: steps and that, you know, that was really fun. It

30
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 1: was fun upstairs seeing all of them. And then Tory

31
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: Holt was here, you know with NFL Legends, and that

32
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: was great seeing Tori because I've got history with him

33
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 1: there at the RAMS and what a solid human being.

34
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: I mean, it was a great day, it really was.

35
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: And great that Amy Adams Strunk wants these guys back

36
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 1: so much and they feel so welcome to come back.

37
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: That was the overwhelming feeling from all of the guys.

38
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: Whether it was Kevin Long, or it was kenn A Motto,

39
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: or it was Andy Levitri who has moved back to town.

40
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: First of all, I didn't recognize the place, and just

41
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: the overwhelming feeling of generosity on her part and the

42
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: ownership group to still make them feel important because they

43
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 1: were a part of this all right, So I got

44
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 1: some business to take care of before we dive directly

45
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: into football. A week from today, Thursday, September first, we

46
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: the Titans are helping to celebrate nine oh one day

47
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: in Memphis. We share are we're going to Memphis and

48
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: very excited about that. A lot of things that the

49
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: organization will be involved in. But the four of us

50
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,839
Speaker 1: coach Dave McGinnis, Amy Wells, Rhet, Brian and me, we

51
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 1: will be at rail Garden. Rail Garden, which is at

52
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: twenty one sixty sixth Central Avenue, will be there from

53
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: four to six pm and we are going to record

54
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: the OTP live. So, Amy, you like taking the show

55
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: on the road, I do, and now we're going to

56
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 1: take the show on the road to Memphis one week

57
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 1: from today, right. And we had a lot of people

58
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: ask us when we did the OTP road tour back

59
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: in the spring, are you going to Memphis? Why aren't

60
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: you coming to Memphis? And honestly, we couldn't go that

61
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 1: far because one of us was kind of a medical

62
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: risk and that person would be me and really say

63
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: medical risk. Well, if there's an ambulance an EMTs on standby.

64
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: How about how about just saying with child, I'm not

65
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: trying to have a baby on a bus, is what

66
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: it came down to. And so now that the problem

67
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: has resolved itself, you're calling your kid a problem when

68
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: she doesn't sleep, she is a problem. Okay, But now

69
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: that I'm not pregnant anymore, we can go to Memphis,

70
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 1: and so the nine o one day felt like the

71
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: perfect time to do that. And we're so excited to

72
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: continue to take the show on the road. It's my

73
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 1: favorite thing to say. It's like a lovely ballad from

74
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: the early nineties with Vanessa Williams. We have saved the

75
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 1: best for last. Yeah, the Bluff City, We're coming. We'll

76
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: see you next Thursday. Yeah, we did it with some

77
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: rookie season ticket members on August fourteenth, and now Thursday,

78
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: September first, one week from today, for everybody in Memphis, Tennessee,

79
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: and the surrounding area. Rail Garden twenty one sixty six

80
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: Central Avenue, four to six pm. I'm hearing there maybe

81
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,720
Speaker 1: Ribs involved with some of this trip. You know, I'll

82
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 1: do anything for Ribs. You guys know that I'm really

83
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,159
Speaker 1: looking forward to this trip, and I'm going to just

84
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: go back to what Amy said just for a minute.

85
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: Then I'm gonna get off of it. I was very,

86
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 1: very disappointed she didn't have Livy Corey on the bus.

87
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: I didn't deliver Livy Corey on the bus. Yes, I

88
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: was not at all disappointed. Did you not think it

89
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 1: was weird that coach was pulling so hard for that rat?

90
00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: In hindsight, yes, yeah, it was really odd. He really

91
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 1: want I was just fearful, as like, oh God, I

92
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: made it all the way through to eagle Scout. I

93
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 1: don't want to deliver this baby. I don't, but Ratt

94
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: was my choice of everybody on that bus. I drett

95
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: because he was an eagle scout. Figure it out. Up

96
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: some bed sheets, let's rock and roll. Boil some water, ye,

97
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: come here. They always boil water on TV. If you

98
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,720
Speaker 1: ever noticed that, you don't know why there was no

99
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: water involved. I mean, now that I've done it, there's

100
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,559
Speaker 1: no need for boiled water. Could have delivered the baby.

101
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: I just wanted to narrate it. No, God, no, he

102
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 1: wanted to be the color Anily's color an I can't

103
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: think of it by play too, because this boy had

104
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: been out, I'd have been gone. I can't think of anything.

105
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: Here's your line the other night RP. No, Well, the

106
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:42,719
Speaker 1: whole thing would be, isn't there's someone more qualified? Yeah? Doctor, yeah, doctor.

107
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: But fortunately I know a guy, and that's what I

108
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 1: would have done. I would have called a guy and

109
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 1: we would have gotten a guy, and I would have left.

110
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: He can do it. Maybe. Wells is not pregnant. Nope,

111
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: she has a child. Everything's great except the sleeping part.

112
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: And we're going to Memphis, and she's coming to Memphis

113
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: with us. Libby's coming to Memphis, so she'll be there.

114
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 1: And then I think some people are going to stick

115
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:08,159
Speaker 1: around after the OTP taping at Rail Garden to watch

116
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: Tennessee open this season next Thursday against ball State. I

117
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: think that will probably happen. I think that is going

118
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:17,600
Speaker 1: to happen. Yes. Southeastern Conference football. Vanderbilt opens this weekend

119
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: at Hawaii Hawaiia. They're they're out there at Hawaiian now.

120
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 1: In fact, that's why the Cardinals are practicing over They're

121
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: at Vanderbilt because Vanderbilt built is at Hawaii, and didn't

122
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 1: the Cardinals have to get out of Glendale because of

123
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 1: John bon Jovi. Did I hear that right, that bon Jovie?

124
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 1: I believe that is correct, Yes, yea. So they had

125
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 1: to clear out because they practice indoors. Once they come back,

126
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 1: do they still go to Flights Down? Oh? They practice

127
00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: their whole training camp is there in the stadium because

128
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 1: it's air conditioned and it's a little bit warm there

129
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 1: in Phoenix this time of year during training camp. So

130
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: they practice in the stadium constantly. They've got a hotel

131
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: right there, right across the street where they keep their

132
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 1: players and their coaches, and so they were having to

133
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 1: move out anyway. They were going to come here to

134
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: play the Titans, and so a good move by them.

135
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: I spent a lot of time with them yesterday morning

136
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 1: before practice started, and then you know, I saw several

137
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 1: of them last night. I mean it was a plan move.

138
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: Is bon Jovi really big enough to kick out a

139
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 1: whole NFL team during training camp? Apparently? Like of all

140
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,559
Speaker 1: the name like I mean, like I don't know Elton John,

141
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: I'd do that far. Well, isn't the Rock and Roll

142
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame? I mean there's roughly and he has

143
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:28,800
Speaker 1: toured consistently of course, if he owned the Buffalo Bills

144
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 1: right now, you wouldn't be there. That's true. I'll tell

145
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: you that. That was an interesting story listening to him

146
00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: tell Howard Stern about him trying to buy the Buffalo

147
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 1: Bills and how he says Donald Trump sabotaged him on

148
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: that because he didn't want him to own the team.

149
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: But he was going to move to Buffalo. He was

150
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:51,680
Speaker 1: going to be an active owner, he was going to

151
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 1: stop touring. He was gonna all he was gonna do

152
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: is be the Buffalo Bills owner. And he was very

153
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: serious about it. Wow. Wow, that's commitment. If you say

154
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,559
Speaker 1: I'll move to Buffalo. You know. I'm glad that coach

155
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: Mac clarified what the field situation is in their stadium

156
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: situation in the house that Mac built in Arizona, because

157
00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: I called him during that Ravens preseason gave me that.

158
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 1: I said, why does it look like they just had

159
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: the Shelbyville Celebration walking horse show in there? I don't understand,

160
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: what are we doing? Is it grass? They had a

161
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: concert there? Okay? And plus and plus they practice on

162
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: it all the time, and so what they'll do, you know,

163
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 1: before the season starts they'll slide that tray back out,

164
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: resaw the tray and then keep it out there in

165
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,200
Speaker 1: the sun where it can grow. But they practice on

166
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 1: it every day and that's why right now it's got

167
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 1: some where to it. There was more divots there than

168
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: a polo match. Wow, it slides in and out right.

169
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 1: The mechanics of it are amazing. It's a huge tray

170
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 1: like how Houston's used to be. Yeah, and then Houston

171
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: couldn't keep it up. No, a lot of people got

172
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: hurt on it, right, lots of injuries. And Arizona theyn

173
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: keep it up because they got weather that can you

174
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,839
Speaker 1: know that grows all year. I mean it's it was

175
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,080
Speaker 1: a pretty it's pretty much of a mechanical moral we

176
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: why I was there when we went through it, mister Bidwell,

177
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,439
Speaker 1: you know, went over to Amsterdam to look at a

178
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 1: soccer stadium that that did it and brought it back.

179
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 1: I mean, it's amazing. Tell me if you if you

180
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: could pick any place that would be the perfect site

181
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: to host training camp, I think Flagstaff, Arizona and Northern Arizona,

182
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 1: the university there, I think that would be perfect. It

183
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,439
Speaker 1: was perfect. I mean I did it for eight years.

184
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: It was absolutely beautiful. First of all, it's a destination

185
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: place because it's right on the way in the summer

186
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: to the Grand Canyon, and we would have four in

187
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: five thousand people a day at training camp. Of course

188
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: that's back when you went, you know, twice a day.

189
00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: The biggest problem for me as a head coach and

190
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: even as a you know, as an assistant head coach,

191
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: there was the in the afternoon because the San Francisco

192
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: Peaks are there, which is the highest point they got

193
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: you know, snow skiing there, but it's the highest point

194
00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: in Arizona. But because of the elevation there, it's at

195
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: seventy two hundred feet, they've got an Olympic training center

196
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 1: up there. Because of the elevation, you know, with the

197
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: whole oxygen thing, you've got real problems understorms every afternoon.

198
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: And with that those mountains comes the electricity and so

199
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 1: you're I mean, I became a real weather guru up

200
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 1: there looking at them, looking at dopper radar and trying

201
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: to decide when or when not to have you know, practice,

202
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 1: or to move it back or to move it up.

203
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: But as far as a place to have it, it's

204
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: beautiful and we stayed in the dormitories, which were really nice,

205
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: but no air conditioning because it's sixty five degrees at

206
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: night in the in the mountains. It's like it's in

207
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: the mountains. And it was a beautiful place, had three

208
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: beautiful fields. I loved Flagstaff, you know. I had a

209
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: you know place in the summer and Flagstaff up there.

210
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: You really that I could go to. Yeah, And I

211
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 1: mean the whole thing was it's a great, great setup. Really,

212
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: it was a great setup. The only thing that happens

213
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 1: is is that when you come back down the mountain,

214
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: when you have to come back down the mountain, you

215
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: sit there and you watch that temperature gage in your

216
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: car go from eighty two to one hundred and eighty two,

217
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 1: you know. So it's a big difference when you come

218
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:56,160
Speaker 1: back down the mountain. Sleep Away training camp is very underestimated.

219
00:10:56,200 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: I think when you go off site four three weeks,

220
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: is it more beneficial in your opinion as a coach

221
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 1: to do sleepaway training camp? No, No, I like it

222
00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 1: when I came. When I came here, and well, because

223
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,200
Speaker 1: you've got everything here, it's a massive move. Ye, it's

224
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 1: a massive move for every for everybody that supports it.

225
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 1: I mean just you know, just for all of this

226
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 1: stuff you know that we do electronically, and it's a

227
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: massive but not for the ball club. It's not talking

228
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: about the players and the coaches. It's better for everybody

229
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 1: because you got you got familiarity as to where you are.

230
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: You're not uprooting things, You're not constantly having you know,

231
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 1: because you know, things always come up. These guys have families, right,

232
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: and if something comes up, they have to leave and

233
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,719
Speaker 1: go you know, I mean because they have children that

234
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 1: I mean, things come up, you know that are more

235
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: important than football. It's much better. I've always thought that

236
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 1: on site, if your if your facility could handle it

237
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: was much better. Well, it's funny when we went in

238
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 1: two thousand and six to Austin, p they did a

239
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,360
Speaker 1: really nice job up there, But it was funny. I

240
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 1: had a massive problem at my house that went on

241
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,679
Speaker 1: while I was up there. And that's only an hour

242
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,319
Speaker 1: fifteen from where I live. But to be several hours

243
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 1: away or like the teams that go to Wisconsin and

244
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 1: then they're right, I did that too. We went to Platform, Wisconsin,

245
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 1: you know, which is three and a half four hours

246
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,960
Speaker 1: away from Chicago. And no way to get there, and

247
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: you know when you get up there and then you

248
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: know flagstaff, flagstaff three hours. I mean, it's it's it's

249
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: up there. So I can just what you said, we'd

250
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: always experience it when we were off somebody had something

251
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 1: come up just because of life. What impresses you most

252
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: about a Mike Vrabel training camp, Amy, I think the

253
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:41,920
Speaker 1: speed of it. I think how quickly everything moves, and

254
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: how quickly all of the players are able to get

255
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: acclimated and they're able to start doing real, real work

256
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 1: that gets you prepared for the season right away. It

257
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,160
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like there's a lot of revving up. It

258
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like there's a really long acclamation period. It

259
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: feels like everybody right away, whether you're a VET who's

260
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: been with Mike Vrabel for four or five years, or

261
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 1: you're new to the organization, you understand the expectations, you

262
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:10,760
Speaker 1: know the speed that he wants to go out, and

263
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: you're moving and I don't think every training camp in

264
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: the NFL is like that. I think some training camps

265
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 1: it takes a while to kind of get everyone on

266
00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 1: the same page. When you can start getting real work done.

267
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 1: That's not the case in a Mike Varabel training camp.

268
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: The consistency of it, I mean, he's very consistent with

269
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: what he does. Also the way that he is able

270
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: to manage his players during training camp. It's not all

271
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: just we're in training camp and so everybody's going to

272
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,720
Speaker 1: go one hundred percent of the time, one hundred miles

273
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: an hour all the time. He understands it. He understands

274
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: it in a lot of levels, and he spends a

275
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 1: lot of time in his offseason planning that, preparing that,

276
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 1: and then also his flexibility. He is able to adjust

277
00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 1: on the run and it looks like it's just a

278
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 1: continuous motion, but there's some adjustments that always take place.

279
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: But his consistency is what makes it really really good.

280
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: And plus he gives it. There's a lot of variety

281
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: to his to his training camps, and he does it

282
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:07,280
Speaker 1: for a reason. We've all seen it, the different periods

283
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,199
Speaker 1: he has when he has him how he does it,

284
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:13,079
Speaker 1: he knows what he's doing. For me, it's the watching

285
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: coach Verbel teach and go from position group to position

286
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: group and knowing what he is looking for and what

287
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: he needs to see from them with you know, Ay's hands, feet, body, language, fundamentals, technique,

288
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: all of those things. And I was reminded of it

289
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: by by rookie Nicholas petit Frere the other day, who

290
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: who said in an availability, he said, I've never had

291
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: a head coach to come over and teach me one

292
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: on one and him knowing exactly what I needed to do.

293
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: And he said, it's not just my group. I see

294
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: him doing it with a dB and the linebackers and

295
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: the secondary and you know, the special teams. He's all

296
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,120
Speaker 1: over the place and he is so he's hid. He's

297
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 1: the smartest coach I've ever had because I see him

298
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 1: working with everyone and he knows exactly what everyone is

299
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: supposed to be doing. It feels as if Mike does

300
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 1: a good job coach Mac of threading the needle between

301
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 1: being involved in the groups and yet not overshadowing or

302
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,560
Speaker 1: usurping his position. Coaches great observation. Mike, he lets his

303
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 1: coaches coach. But at the same time, he's a ball coach.

304
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: And this was how he was as a player. I mean,

305
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: this is how he had a double digit career, is

306
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,760
Speaker 1: he was aware of everything that went on and as

307
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 1: a head coach, you know, I experienced it too. You

308
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: have to be able to be proficient in everything that

309
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 1: goes on, but you also have to be cognizant of

310
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: the fact you need to let your coaches coach. And

311
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: the thing that he does such a great job of

312
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: is any time that he wants to make corrections or

313
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: do those types of things or something that's going on,

314
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: he will always address that inside the building with his coaches.

315
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 1: But he never steps over his coaches on the practice field.

316
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: That's something that you know that and as a former

317
00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 1: head coach sometimes you know that's that's hard to do

318
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: because at the moment you want to step in, he

319
00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 1: understands how to feel that. Plus, I mean he hires

320
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: coaches that know what they're doing. But that's an art.

321
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,560
Speaker 1: That's an art to be able to let your coaches

322
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 1: coach and then be able if you're going to coach

323
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: your coaches do it in the building well. And he's

324
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 1: also so hands on. I mean, it's not that he

325
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,080
Speaker 1: just walks over and says, nope, you need to be

326
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: doing this differently. I mean he gets in there if

327
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: he's going to show you how to make a change

328
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: or make a correction, especially with a lot of those players,

329
00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: he gets down to their level. He's able to act

330
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: it out in the way that they need to be

331
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: doing things. He I mean, how many times have we

332
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: seen him with a chess pad or some sort of

333
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: weird bopping device where he is doing what needs to

334
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: be done because he can demonstrate it. He can show

335
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: a guy physically what they need to be doing or changing.

336
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 1: And I think that as a player, that's something that

337
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: you respect so much. Is this not just some guy

338
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: telling me what I need to be doing or trying

339
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: to teach me what to do. He can physically show

340
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,880
Speaker 1: me what it is. He can physically do it with me,

341
00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 1: and it helps with the teaching part of it, and

342
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: it also probably helps kind of keep everything in line

343
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: as far as the chain of command with coaches, because

344
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: it's not like he's saying, Nope, you've been taught wrong.

345
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: It's let me help correct your technique. Here for a second,

346
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: I see something, let me just show you, and then

347
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: he can move on to the next thing. You hit

348
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 1: the nail on the head, Amy, it's a demonstrative practice.

349
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,720
Speaker 1: That's a better word. Yes, Well you said demonstrate. I'm

350
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,919
Speaker 1: just saying that's what is one word I would describe

351
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: it it's a demonstrative hands on practice. Every practice. Derrick

352
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 1: Henry got more work in practice than we have seen

353
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,840
Speaker 1: so far in training camp or at Brian. What did

354
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 1: you see from him? More of what you expect to see.

355
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: I mean, twenty two is ready to go. That's the

356
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 1: question that we all get during the off season is

357
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: how's his health? How's his health? His health is fine,

358
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 1: and the indicator that the season is right around the corner.

359
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 1: September the eleventh against the Giants, three twenty five kick

360
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 1: on Titan's radio. It's here and so big boys getting work.

361
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 1: He was in some eleven on eleven drills and you

362
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: can see some people got around his legs. So people

363
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 1: falling around his legs, and when you're watching it, that's

364
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: why you know they've been very judicious as far as

365
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: to doing that. But as far as Derek Henry goes,

366
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: I mean when he gets when he gets it, he's

367
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: taking it all the way to the end zone like

368
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 1: Walter Payton used to do every practice, take every run

369
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: to the end zone. He's ready to go. It's a

370
00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:29,920
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry is. I hope people really appreciate his time

371
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: here because you're you know, I spent some time with

372
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 1: the Cardinals people again, and every team that comes in

373
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,679
Speaker 1: here where they say, you know, when they see him

374
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 1: in person, especially when his pads are off, when he's

375
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: out there after the practice, they go, WHOA, that's different.

376
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: But watching him now, we've been watching him, you know,

377
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 1: the whole time. But when he was in that that teams,

378
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,640
Speaker 1: those team periods, I would say twenty two is probably

379
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 1: kind of riffed up. Mac made an interesting point about

380
00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:00,640
Speaker 1: the use of twenty two and you know, making sure

381
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,399
Speaker 1: that he of course stays healthy and all of the

382
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 1: things that you watch people during camp, but you also

383
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: want to protect people around him who are trying to

384
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 1: make a play, you know. I mean, you really do

385
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: see people kind of get a little more tangled up

386
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 1: in each other in some of those eleven on eleven

387
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 1: drills when he's in the mix, because guys are trying

388
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: to show out, they're trying to stop him, they're trying

389
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: to make a play, they're trying to do the things

390
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 1: that you do at the end of camp, and you

391
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,360
Speaker 1: don't want to see those guys get hurt either. I mean,

392
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,680
Speaker 1: you want to keep everyone healthy and when you're going

393
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: a little bit harder to stop the big man out there,

394
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 1: the dynamics shifts a little bit. So that was an

395
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 1: interesting point that Mac made when we were watching practice,

396
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 1: just about why we haven't seen him so much. It's

397
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 1: not only for his safety, it's for the safety of

398
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 1: everybody else who's trying to show what they can do.

399
00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,880
Speaker 1: Ramped up. No doubt this week Derrick Henry will not

400
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 1: play on Saturday night against the Arizona Cardinals at Nissan Stadium.

401
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 1: But somebody who we would imagine will is Ugo Amadi.

402
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 1: And Ugo Amadi is an Nashville native, played at Oregon,

403
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: played very well at Oregon, fourth round draft pick of

404
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks, drafted at number one, thirty two overall

405
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: fifty games played in his career with the Seahawks twelve starts.

406
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: He was there nickel back on defense the last two seasons.

407
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 1: His position, I think is technically safety, but realistically he's

408
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: just always been a nickel in this league. At five nine,

409
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 1: two hundred one pounds. The Titans obtained him from the

410
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: Eagles yesterday. The Eagles obtained him nine days earlier from

411
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. Dave McGinnis, why is Ugo Amadi here? John

412
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,120
Speaker 1: Robinson and Mike verb One, a veteran guy to look

413
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: at that, because, as you say, it's gonna be an

414
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an altered position, an altered personnel group position.

415
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,359
Speaker 1: And when you're looking for that person behind your two starters,

416
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: you would like to have somebody that has some experience

417
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 1: doing those things. I mean, I know he's a local product.

418
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 1: I remember you know vetting him, even when you vetted

419
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 1: him at the but he ran four or five one.

420
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,199
Speaker 1: This guy's got some movement skills and he's also a

421
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 1: pretty big hitter. And so when you at this stage

422
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,400
Speaker 1: of the training camp you bring someone in for that role,

423
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: you want somebody that has already been in the bright

424
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 1: lights of the National Football League for real, that is

425
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: not overwhelmed with that. And then you want to be

426
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,639
Speaker 1: able to incorporate them because look, everybody's nomenclature is a

427
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 1: little bit different, but the schematics and the theories are

428
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 1: a lot the same, and you want somebody that you

429
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 1: can incorporate into that pretty quick. That's what they're looking for.

430
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 1: Maybe like Desmond King when they acquired him a couple

431
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 1: of seasons ago from the Chargers, and he stepped right

432
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:38,280
Speaker 1: in his charicle. Well, that's exactly what you want and

433
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,359
Speaker 1: you need that. And so I mean, you see that

434
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 1: he's been flipping through some veteran defensive backs, especially at

435
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 1: that safety position, you know, the last couple of weeks.

436
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,119
Speaker 1: That's what he's looking for. I had a chance to

437
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: speak to Ugo Amadi after his first Titan's practice and

438
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: he indeed says he has been asked to be the nickel.

439
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 1: That's what they're looking at. And he just talked about

440
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: the whirlwind of the last two weeks for him, because

441
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 1: you mentioned it twelve days ago, whatever it was, he

442
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: was a part of the trade to the Eagles for

443
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 1: jj Arsega Whiteside, and two weeks later he's here, and

444
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,880
Speaker 1: he said it was a surreal moment because he said, well,

445
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: I asked him about what were the notifications like on

446
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:19,720
Speaker 1: his phone, knowing he's coming back home because he played

447
00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: at John Overton High School right here in Nashville. He said,

448
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 1: I was already in the air coming back to Nashville

449
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: when it happened. When I touched down, I turned off

450
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 1: my phone off of airplane mode. The notifications went bananas,

451
00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: And of course my next question was, okay, you and

452
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: THEO Jackson have a lot of ticket requests for Saturday

453
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: night at Nissan Stadium. Who is handling that? He said, Oh,

454
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 1: the rook is handling that. I said, okay, Well, THEO

455
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,639
Speaker 1: says he is very grateful that his mother is handling that.

456
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,920
Speaker 1: So it looks like THEO Jackson's mom is taken care

457
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 1: of all of those requests as mom should do. That's right,

458
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 1: that's what That's a good mom. That's outstanding. So THEO

459
00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 1: Jackson has been playing the nickel too since he has

460
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:03,719
Speaker 1: come back. They're trying to get him experience at that spot. Obviously,

461
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,359
Speaker 1: we've seen other guys line up when you know, the

462
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: Titans have used a package with McCrary and Farley on

463
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 1: the field, with Fulton and Bayard and Hooker as the

464
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,879
Speaker 1: as the five, so there are a lot of different options.

465
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: I think the other part of it too about Ugo

466
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 1: Amati five hundred eighty special team snaps in his career,

467
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 1: so not just a guy, but a guy who's been

468
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:32,679
Speaker 1: a special team's stalwart throughout his time in Seattle. You

469
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: can't manufacture experience in this league, Mike, and that's and

470
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: that's what they were looking for now. THEO Jackson, you know,

471
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: has missed some time. He's missed some time early, you know,

472
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 1: in his first year, and any of that time missed,

473
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: especially for a first year player, is very very valuable,

474
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: you know, to them. But it also as time comes

475
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: down to we're getting ready for the regular season, you

476
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: want dudes with some experience. And that's exactly why he

477
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,520
Speaker 1: has been chumming the water for these types of players.

478
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,720
Speaker 1: Give me a Titan that needs to play well. Saturday night,

479
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: Amy Wells, I'm gonna put you on the spot first.

480
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: I'm gonna buy you just a second by mentioning. This

481
00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: is the OTP presented by Farm Bureau Health Plans. Farm

482
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: Bureau Health Plans is celebrating seventy five years of providing

483
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,560
Speaker 1: Tennesseeans with high quality healthcare coverage at an affordable price.

484
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: Visit FBHP dot com to learn about our history in

485
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 1: Tennessee and we love the fine folks at Farm Bureau

486
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 1: Health Plans. Ryan Stonehouse, Oh, the punter. Yes, I think

487
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:33,239
Speaker 1: that that punter spot is there are some decisions that

488
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: need to be made there. I think there's upside no

489
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 1: matter what direction you go. And I think that if

490
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,439
Speaker 1: Ryan Stonehouse wants to earn that job. He needs to

491
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 1: have a great game. I would not want to be

492
00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 1: John Robinson when it comes to making that decision, because,

493
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:53,679
Speaker 1: on one hand, Brett Kerrn is a three time pro bowler,

494
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,440
Speaker 1: He's had a really good camp, He's thirty six, you

495
00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: know him, you can trust him. On the other hand,

496
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: it all ends at some point for everybody. This kid

497
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: does not go through not claim somebody's going to be

498
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 1: interested in Stonehouse. You do save some cap money. You

499
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,640
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of excess cap money, and so

500
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,360
Speaker 1: people would say, well, you save a few hundred thousand,

501
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: up to a million and a half. I don't know

502
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:19,720
Speaker 1: what the number is, but at this point the Titans

503
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: could use every dollar out there because they are tight

504
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 1: snug man. I would not want to be John Robinson

505
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 1: any day with that job. But in particular about that decision, well,

506
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 1: it is one of the ear marks of a team

507
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 1: who has had six straight winning seasons is the cuts

508
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,160
Speaker 1: are easy when you're not good. You know, in Jacksonville,

509
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 1: cuts are gonna be pretty easy. Yeah I took that shot,

510
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: That's fine, But I'm just saying he did. He went there.

511
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:52,440
Speaker 1: That's the difference and involved Listen, I do not envy

512
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,200
Speaker 1: John Robinson's position at all, and in particular for that

513
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: battle right there that may very well come down to

514
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,959
Speaker 1: the Cardinals game Saturday night. I've made those decisions. And

515
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,159
Speaker 1: but here's what you want, and retz point is one

516
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 1: hundred percent correct. When you're a good team, you're gonna

517
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: have tough decisions. That's what you want. You know, if

518
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 1: your decisions are easy, then you've got problems because then

519
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: you're gonna be looking for everybody else's team to bring in.

520
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,600
Speaker 1: The player that I think has to show up is

521
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: Laurell Murchison. I mean he needs to, you know, he

522
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: needs to continue to show up because that group is

523
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,399
Speaker 1: pretty crowded. Somebody is getting cut in the defensive line.

524
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,760
Speaker 1: Who's going to play Week one for another team in

525
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,439
Speaker 1: this league. I think you're correct. I think you're correct,

526
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 1: you know, and that and to me, that's and and

527
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,160
Speaker 1: again that goes along the same theme of if you've

528
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 1: got a good football team, that you're going to be

529
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,040
Speaker 1: making cuts of people that are going to play as

530
00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: soon as you as soon as you release them, because

531
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: your people you're releasing are better than their's that they're releasing.

532
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: And so I mean it's a cychnical thing. But if

533
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 1: you've got an established program like we have here at

534
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: the Titans, sooner or later people will being looking at

535
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: your cuts pretty hard. Well you took mind, Coach Mac.

536
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 1: But that's all right, you can do that. Well, Ret,

537
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: I know you well enough, and I looked at you

538
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: and I thought that that's who you were thinking. So

539
00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,120
Speaker 1: it's you saw the blood leaving you SAA. So that's

540
00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 1: why I did it on purpose. I am looking at

541
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,880
Speaker 1: Death Fitzpatrick. That's a crowded room and you start thinking

542
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 1: about the numbers. I think you can see who you're

543
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: going to pencil in for the first four, maybe five receivers.

544
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 1: And I'll say this, Death Fitzpatrick has had a nice week.

545
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: I have seen him flash in more than one place

546
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: at same time of sports Park this week, in red

547
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 1: zone situations, in just individual drills. He's put together a

548
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 1: nice week and I think he knows it, and I

549
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: think he knows what he's got to do. You know

550
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,920
Speaker 1: who else has had a good week is Malik Willis.

551
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 1: He absolutely has. Coach Mack and I were having a

552
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: phone conversation about that a couple nights ago. In terms

553
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,920
Speaker 1: of I don't want to say, like a huge major

554
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:59,720
Speaker 1: step forward, but you're seeing progress towards what can be.

555
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 1: And for me, it is the clock in his head

556
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 1: when it is time to release that football, and he's

557
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:10,399
Speaker 1: doing that with more consistency, and he's finding receivers and

558
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: completing passes. Now that's also taken into consideration that no

559
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,560
Speaker 1: one is trying to come and take his head off

560
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 1: like they would in a regular game. And it's you know,

561
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 1: sure having game plan thrown at him, but I'm seeing

562
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 1: progress in that area in particular parameters. All four of

563
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: us have watched him since he's been here in May,

564
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: and we've watched what he's been taught, and he's a sponge.

565
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 1: He's absorbing what he's been taught. But what he has

566
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 1: to do to marry you know, his feet, his bottom

567
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 1: part to what he's seen when to see it, learn

568
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: to throw people open, not wait till they come open

569
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: in this league, and has has referenced to have that

570
00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 1: NFL clock in your head. And then as as Mike

571
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: Vrabel said, and it's very important when you escape out

572
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 1: of the back of the pocket in the National Football League,

573
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: you're setting yourself up for some problems. And let's just

574
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,120
Speaker 1: say this. Malik Willis has had two preseason games, but

575
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: he has not done a lot of ACA against real

576
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 1: dude yet. When you're playing against real dudes in this league,

577
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 1: all three levels can walk you down as a quarterback

578
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 1: unless you're just exceptional, unless you're one of those four

579
00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: three guys, and you know those guys are rare, and

580
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 1: so all of these things. Learning how to manipulate a

581
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 1: pocket and learning how to make escaping up in that

582
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: A or B gap once you've manipulated the cylinder your friend,

583
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: rather than trying to forfeit to the edges, which is

584
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: the quickest way to get run down. Plus the field

585
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 1: is cut in completely off when you escape to a sideline.

586
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 1: He's learning all of this stuff, but he's making progress.

587
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: Rt Namy and I we watch it from upstairs where

588
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 1: we can see it all, especially in the two minute

589
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: and the clock in his head is getting better and

590
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 1: he's working on that. But that's not something that comes immediately.

591
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 1: You have to be under fire for that to work.

592
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 1: I think he still has a lot of welcome to

593
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: the NFL rookie moments ahead of him, which is to

594
00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 1: be expected. He is a rookie, and that was also

595
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: kind of the point to give him a year to learn.

596
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: So this is working as we're seeing exactly how it

597
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: was supposed to. He was supposed to have the time

598
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: to come in understand the system, and he's going to

599
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,280
Speaker 1: all the right people for help. He spends a ton

600
00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: of time with Pat O'Hara, He's constantly talking to Todd Downey,

601
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: He's constantly talking to the other quarterbacks in that room.

602
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: I mean, the guy's going to the right places for information.

603
00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,520
Speaker 1: So I think that this is all kind of working

604
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 1: as it was designed to work, and so I'm excited

605
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 1: about his future in that regard. Another thing that's stuck

606
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: out to me. Do you guys just call each other

607
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 1: and talk about players? Like, is that a thing that

608
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: you guys do? Rehet said, you guys talk on the

609
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:36,200
Speaker 1: phone and just drinks evaluate people during during the sea

610
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,960
Speaker 1: I talked to coach Dave McGinnis at least once a

611
00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: day on the phone, and sometimes two or three times

612
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 1: a day on the phone. Yeah, because you can still

613
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: talk on the phone. It's kind of cute. Yeah, Well

614
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,880
Speaker 1: it's time I'm gonna start calling you. There's nothing every day,

615
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:54,120
Speaker 1: there's nothing. There's nothing cute about our conversations. Sure, Okay,

616
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,800
Speaker 1: there's nothing cute about our conversations because there's some things

617
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: we talk about that we can't talk about now. But

618
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 1: the players, there's some time foolery there. Yeah, yeah, but

619
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 1: absolutely because and not only are this team, but other

620
00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 1: teams too, Because you know we amy and I started

621
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 1: that today, I mean looking at starting to look ahead.

622
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,719
Speaker 1: I mean, as you well know, Mike, you spend how

623
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: much of your time do you spend looking at other

624
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 1: people's personnel, looking at what's going on? And I was

625
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 1: doing before you guys came in here, well, working on that.

626
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: That's I know that. That's what we do, and that's

627
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,480
Speaker 1: what we do, and there's no way to do it

628
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: any better than to converse about it. I mean, that's

629
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: what coaches do. It's what coaches do down here every day.

630
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: When when you see him walk in the building after practice,

631
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 1: they're sitting down talking about players. I have the hotline

632
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: number to the coach Mac Bunker and he answers. But

633
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 1: you know the bat phone has he has done with

634
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: all of us. He is the open book, I always say,

635
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: and he's been very generous with his time and information

636
00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: and if there's something truly I want to ask, like

637
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: I called him about the field conditions in Arizona the

638
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 1: other night against the Ravens, and he answered, he said, yeah,

639
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 1: that's because they don't do it the flagstaff anymore. They

640
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,680
Speaker 1: do everything inside. Okay, makes sense, all right? So final

Speaker 1: the tight end from Maryland, and everyone is very excited

654
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: to hear about. And I have a great conversation with

655
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: Stefania Bell of ESPN, the lead injury analyst who is

656
00:32:56,360 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 1: everybody's best friend during the season, checking her timelines on

657
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 1: Twitter about who is going to be affected in their

658
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,880
Speaker 1: fantasy lineup because of injuries in this thing. And you know,

659
00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: she was a physical therapist for twenty years and she

660
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,280
Speaker 1: knows what she's talking. So if you don't know who

661
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 1: she is, think about Cynthia Freedland with NFL Network on

662
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:21,600
Speaker 1: Statistics and Analytics. Stefani A. Bell is that same person

663
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 1: in the NFL media circles about injuries. That is a

664
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 1: great comparison and that is exactly how I would describe her.

665
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 1: And she's smart, smart lady, and you know, unlike some

666
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: folks that are in that game and social media about

667
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,959
Speaker 1: well that looks like an ACL He's done. She's vetting

668
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 1: this properly. We talk about this in the conversation about

669
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 1: how she actually approaches her job from her medical background

670
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 1: and consulting others in the field instead of just jumping

671
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:51,640
Speaker 1: to a conclusion. She's I don't want to be the

672
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: first to break the story. I don't want to be

673
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:58,160
