See. 23 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: So my wife has been living in two years in 24 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: LA and that's what she's been doing for my daughter 25 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: still and she's about to turn twenty one. So if 26 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: there's anybody that can understand professional uber driver, I think 27 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: it's uh, it's me and my wife Page Harris for sure. See, 28 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 1: so I want to I want to go here. First, 29 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: Nick Sirianni gets this Super Bowl as the second year 30 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: head coach the Philadelphia Eagles. Nickis Sirio went to John 31 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: Carroll Sirianni. I actually saw his last game, a loss 32 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: to the Saint John's Johnny is in the two thousand 33 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: and three Cuba A Division three championship. I ask you this, 34 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: what the heck is it about Mountain Union, John Carroll? 35 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 1: That area that's produced so many players and coaches? You 36 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 1: played at Mountain Union. What is it about that particular 37 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: place in that area that has produced so many NFL 38 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: entities in the personnel world? You know what? I think 39 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: it starts with one person. For us, it was Larry Garris, 40 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 1: the head coach at University of mount Union. For numerous years. 41 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 1: He's College Football Hall of Famer. I think twenty five years, 42 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: twenty five losses over, I think over ten national championships, 43 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: something crazed. But from Mount unions him. He literally knows 44 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: the game like the back of his hand, and he 45 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: makes it seem so simple. So for Sirianni and other 46 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: guys that are in the league, whether coaching or having 47 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: to dabble in the league from playing, we all learned 48 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: from Larry Kerris Man like he's he's set the stage 49 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 1: for us. If you listen to NIXT Harryanni's interviews, especially 50 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: his weekly interviews, he talks about Larry Gerris probably once 51 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,359 Speaker 1: a week, like he's always talking about him being a mentor, 52 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: what he's learned from and what he's talking to him 53 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: about this week. But having that type of impact on 54 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,679 Speaker 1: all of us is a big deal. Like he was 55 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: what he brush to the table as far as a 56 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: father figure or uncle ty, a guy um, and then 57 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,840 Speaker 1: what he knows about football. It's just he put us 58 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: in the best position to succeed as players. And then 59 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: for those that followed that coaching round, he took us 60 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: under his wing. And then for those guys once they 61 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: learned from Larry. He's they're able to go to Vision 62 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: one and go to other places, and it kind of 63 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,799 Speaker 1: just kind of just carried far as far as John Carroll. 64 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: You look at London Fletcher, you look at Sirio, you 65 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 1: look at Shoela. Once they get those it seems like 66 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: once they get their foot in in the door. I 67 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: mean you can even look at Frank Ross right, once 68 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: they get their foot in the door, then they bring 69 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: others on like, hey, we can do this, and it's 70 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: like a we believe in each other type of thing. 71 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: He get it. Okay, you know what, maybe I go 72 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: out there and chasing and um, you see the grind, 73 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: you see the work ethic, you just understand where it takes. 74 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: Um just seeing those guys before you. So I don't 75 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: know if it's the area, but it's definitely people in 76 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: that you know, we're put in place that kind of 77 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: gave back to us and gave us that hope and 78 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: kind of guide us throughout the way.

Well, Mark Albion's with you. 87 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: Like at D three football, you play. You may have 88 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: a night game or two right homecoming or something, but 89 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: most of the time you played in the afternoon. So 90 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: I was watching all the college football that evening after 91 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: our game, right, So I grew up in college watching 92 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,279 Speaker 1: Cam Newton and watching Julio Jones and AJ Green and 93 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: whoever else is coming out of that time. And then 94 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: get to the combine and I'm in the same group 95 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: as these guys and Cam Newton's throwing me the ball. 96 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 1: It was surreal because you look at these guys on 97 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: TV almost like you know, they're professionals, and then for 98 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: me to get a chance to be there, it was like, Wow, 99 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 1: I'm really here, and it was a it was an 100 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: awesome feeling, Like I went from running up against guys 101 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: that were scared to cover me in Division three on 102 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: Saturdays to running in front of Jerry Jones and everybody 103 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 1: else in the forty with you know, the tight stuff on, 104 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: so that that was a surreal process. I met with 105 00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: about four or five teams at the combine. Um and 106 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: you know, you get hounded in this one room. I 107 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: forgot what the name of the room was where it 108 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: just tons of scouts and position coaches and they all 109 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 1: just come at you. And Um, I thought I was 110 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: gonna go to either Baltimore, the Cowboys, or the Redskins. Um. 111 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: I thought one of those three were going to be. 112 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: They were heavy on me at the combine. They were 113 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: very active when it comes to conversation. After the Combine, 114 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 1: took a visit to the Cowboys, met with Jerry in person. 115 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 1: I just knew I was gonna be one of those Ravens, 116 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 1: red Skins or or I forgot the other one. I said, Cowboys. 117 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: But jactually all loved me from the whole time, so 118 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: they called me on draft day. I was surprised, and 119 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: I didn't know you guys were interested me. Well, but 120 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: we thought you were the best, one of the best 121 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: receivers at the East West Shrine game. He just wanted 122 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: to keep it under wraps. I'm like, we all did 123 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: a good job. I wasn't even think about Jacksonville along 124 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: those lines see. So, I mean there's so many smoke 125 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: screens and there's so many things that that go on. 126 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: Of course, I guess we've nicknamed it lying season. And 127 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,839 Speaker 1: Jacksonville doesn't let on to you at all that they 128 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:30,080 Speaker 1: were interested. Yet they were extremely interested. I mean, did you, 129 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: I mean you had no inkling at all wondering why 130 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: Jacksonville was calling you. Well, I met with them at 131 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: the East West Shrine game, and I met with them 132 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: at the Combine. But they liked had a poker face. Yeah, 133 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: where the other teams like the physician coach, but the 134 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 1: Redskins is like, hey, we really want she was between 135 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: you and this guy talking to Jerry's like we're going 136 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: to draft receiver either first round or fourth round, you 137 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So it's gonna be either or 138 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: talking to Baltimore. If they made them, they made it known, 139 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, They made it known what 140 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: they were gonna do. They were talking to my agent 141 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 1: Jacksonville good quiet. So I met with them twice, but 142 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,799 Speaker 1: I ain't hear from them at all after the combine, 143 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: so I wouldn't even think about them. So I was 144 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: surprised when they called, and I was excited of course, 145 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: right d three guys getting drafted fourth for I don't 146 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: think at that time was one of the highest ever. 147 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,360 Speaker 1: So I'm like cool, but I had no clue Jackson, 148 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: it was interested like that. Just met with him twice 149 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 1: and that was that was kind of it. Cecil Shorts 150 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: joining us on Texans Radio and Cecil what would you 151 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: advise young players to do right now? Getting ready for 152 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: the draft, getting ready to be observed, poked, prodded, measured, 153 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: whatever they go through before they get selected. What advice 154 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: would you give the young guys up today? Be yourself? 155 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: Be yourself. I think the biggest thing I learned this 156 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: game is about relationships, right, So don't try to go 157 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: in there and be a picture perfect guy. This biggest self. 158 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 1: Communicate with the with the coaches, with the with the scouts. 159 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: Make them fall in love with you, with who you are, 160 00:07:58,080 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: because that's what they'll see you on an everyday base, 161 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: whether they drafted or you're undrafted, if you're in their building. 162 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: Right So this be yourself going there, performing your best, 163 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: taken serious, be a professional. I think that's huge. I 164 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: think that's one of the biggest things is learning how 165 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,119 Speaker 1: to be a professional, but be a professional, shake hands, 166 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: looking in the eye. Nothing wrong with laughing and joking, 167 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 1: but show them that you know how to carry yourself, 168 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: show them you know how to potentially be a really 169 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: good asset to that organization. I mean you can do that. 170 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: I think you put yourself in a really good positions. 171 00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 1: Of course, you got to perform when it comes to 172 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: the combine and stuff, right, but something that steps out 173 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: of your control. You can't control your height, you can't. 174 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: You can't control you know, if you're either born or 175 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: four or three or you not, you know what I mean. 176 00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: So showing yourself as far as being professional, letting them 177 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: get to know you. And then when you're in that field, 178 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: I would say, compete, man, like go balls to the wall, 179 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 1: like you gotta compete like that. That was the biggest 180 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: thing for me. I love to compete. So when I 181 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: was out there, yeah, I'm like, oh wow, that's Julio, 182 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: that's Aja. I'm like, all right, let me go show 183 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: out belong Like, let me go show I got can 184 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: run routes so I can catch the ball, you know 185 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: what I mean. I don't care who's throwing the ball. 186 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go get it. Just go out there and 187 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: compete and enjoy it. It's not it's only the two 188 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: hundreds of people that get invited to the combines. So 189 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: enjoy that process. You're on National TV. Everybody's watching. It's 190 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: a huge fans show. Now you get tons of free gear, 191 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: and that might be the most important that you get 192 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 1: out that free gear. But but this really enjoyed that process. 193 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: But it's special. You sound like me, see soil Man, 194 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 1: I do it for the free gear, man, Cecil. Let's 195 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: look at this receiver corps that's here with the Texans 196 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: right now. And people have been talking about the Texans 197 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:38,959 Speaker 1: needing offensive help and they maybe needed in the receiver category. 198 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: And we don't know what happens with Brandon Cooks. I mean, 199 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,559 Speaker 1: I think that's been talked about at nauseum. So we 200 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 1: don't really know what happens with Brandon. But we know 201 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: Nico's coming back. We hope that John macchi will be 202 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 1: ready to go. But when you look at this receiver corps, 203 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: knowing the position the way that you do, Cecil, what 204 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: would you like to see the Texans do this offseason 205 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: at that particular position. Maybe it's not a particular player, 206 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 1: but just the style of player that you would like 207 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: to see the Texans add at that particular position. I 208 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: think you need an explosive playmaker. I think you need 209 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: a guy that can take the top off down the field. 210 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: And one thing I'm learning as the game is evolving, 211 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't have to look a certain way, right. I 212 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: think we get so attached to dimensions in this time 213 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: of year. Right, he has to run a four to three, 214 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: has to be six to three, he has to be 215 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 1: two twenty. No, let's watch the take. Can he take 216 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: the top off? Can he run good routes? Can he 217 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: get open? Is there separation? On film? Can he get 218 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: off the press? I'm looking at the Eagles, and they 219 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 1: got Donovan Smith, DeVante Smith, who's probably one hundred and 220 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 1: thirty five pounds soaking with it looks like right, but 221 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:47,480 Speaker 1: he gets hoping, My gosh, he gets hoping. He can run, 222 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: He creates separation, he can make the tough catch. He 223 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: tries to drop his shoulder. Now everyone wants in a 224 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: while like I love that kid. So to me, I 225 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: think you need a guy that's going to be able 226 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: to on film, and I'm big on the film. On film, 227 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 1: he can run by you on film. He has a 228 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: total package, right, not just on combine day. Just don't 229 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: you know you're trying to find the gym. No, find 230 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: a guy that's legitimately on film, a big time playmaker 231 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 1: down the field, but also can run rounds Now. I 232 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 1: think I sound like you're looking for the perfect guy, 233 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: But I think there's guys in this draft. One guy 234 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: in particular for me, I love out of usc Um. Listen, 235 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: the name last named Addison was at Universe. Yeah, Jordian 236 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,839 Speaker 1: absolutely love him, right um, And I'm to me, it's 237 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,439 Speaker 1: about can you get open. You's got to be able 238 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: to create a separation against the Jane Ramsey, against the 239 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: Marlin Humphrey, you know what I mean. So finding the 240 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: guy can do that consistently, I think it would be 241 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: really good. Cecil Sharts joining us on Texans Radio. Cecil, 242 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: when you were drafted, Blaine Gabrett was drafted as well. 243 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: And here we are with the Houston Texans and they've 244 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: got a couple of high picks and the Jacks took 245 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 1: you in the fourth round. It's very conceivable that the 246 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: Texans could take a quarterback high in the receiver in 247 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: the fourth round. Who knows the situation, But what was 248 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: that like early on, and I don't want to pinpoint 249 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: things that Blaine did or did not do, but having 250 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,720 Speaker 1: a young quarterback where the expectations are so high and 251 00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: you're a rookie trying to make it on your own, 252 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: but you were in that situation and it ultimately did 253 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: not pan out for a Blaine in Jacksonville the way 254 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: they wanted. He's still in the league though, so he's 255 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: made a nice living. But your thoughts on the early 256 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: going with all those expectations in Jacksonville, Man, it's it's 257 00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 1: tough for a quarterback. And the crazy part about Blaine 258 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: he was drafted and told because that was a lockout 259 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: year in twenty eleven, he was told that he was 260 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 1: not going to play that year, that he was going 261 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: to have a red shirt year right now. So mentally 262 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: he was like, okay, cool, you know, I get to 263 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: learn the playbook and we can build a team. And 264 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: he ended up being and started like week three. So 265 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: I think when it comes to possibility of drafting a guy, 266 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: you got to make sure your team is as good 267 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 1: as possible. Right. I'm not a fan of completely rebuilding 268 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 1: in your team and draft in a quarterback to a 269 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 1: young team that that team is not really you can't 270 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: take care of the guy right. One thing I love 271 00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: about the Texans. You got some tackles that can block 272 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: their behind off, and you got a running game. You 273 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:11,440 Speaker 1: got a running back. You got a back that can 274 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: tote the ball and that's proven he can tote the 275 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: ball last year. And you got a office line that 276 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: can do it. So I think that's a good situation 277 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,479 Speaker 1: for a quarterback to come into. Right, whether it's in Jacksonville. 278 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,559 Speaker 1: I think Blaine wasn't set up for success, and I 279 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: think that's one of the biggest things you have to 280 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 1: do for a young quarterback. It's already hard enough to 281 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: play quarterback in this league, but for a young guy, 282 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: you have to have him set up for success the 283 00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 1: best you can, right and and really tap into a 284 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: strengths and then whatever, he's not as strong as a 285 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: strong and excuse me, some growth areas. Okay, we can 286 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,960 Speaker 1: work on that throughout the year. But what is he 287 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: good at? Okay, let's make sure we surround him with 288 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: some decent offensive line that can't protect him. Because there 289 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: was times and I love Blaine because his story is awesome. 290 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 1: He struggled early on, but to be able to stay 291 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 1: on and stay in the league. But that's a huge 292 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 1: success to him. He's come on, won some games for 293 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: the Titans and some of the teams throughout his career, 294 00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: so I'm proud of But he wasn't set up for success. 295 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 1: So for a guy to come in here, I think 296 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 1: it's a much better set up. I'm excited. I'll come lame, 297 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,839 Speaker 1: I'm off topic, but I'm excited for the Texas man. 298 00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 1: You got one of the top head coaches coming into 299 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: this in this realm um, and you have some talent here. 300 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 1: You're not that far off. So for a quarterback possibly 301 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: to come in and to be and to be around 302 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: lay meet tonso to be tightest Howard, to have that back, 303 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: it's it's a it's a good place to be. See. 304 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 1: So I want to go to that point you just mentioned. 305 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: In fact, I was thinking that question then you brought 306 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: it up. But I want you to expand on it 307 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: if you don't mind. And that's Damiko Ryan's taking over 308 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: as the head coach. It's started. Two part question number one, 309 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 1: just overall your thoughts. Number two as a former player, 310 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: if you're in the locker room, did it matter to 311 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: you or does it matter to you to have a 312 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: former NFL player as not only your head would your coordinator, 313 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: your position coach. Did that matter to you or did 314 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 1: it not? And how does that you think play in 315 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: with Demiko being a head coach for the first time. Well, 316 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,080 Speaker 1: Number one, I'm excited. I'm excited for Demiko. I think 317 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 1: he did his fair due and with the forty nine ers, like, 318 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: he's a proven commodity. He was I think probably the 319 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: hottest name in the coach in search. So I think 320 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 1: that alone gets the fans excited against the players excited 321 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: like that alone because the reputation he built for himself 322 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: now only as a player, but the last few years 323 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 1: as a DC, and he worked his way up and 324 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: he didn't start off as a DC, you know, he 325 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: kind of worked his way up from a position coach 326 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 1: on up. So for him, I'm excited. I'm excited for this, 327 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: for this, uh to this be a fresh start, you 328 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like it's just gonna be huge. Now. 329 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 1: Second part you asked about doesn't matter if you're a player, 330 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. I think when I was playing, we didn't 331 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: see this too often. A younger head coach who was 332 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: a former player I don't remember that happening too often 333 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: or it being that big of a deal. Now, I 334 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 1: think it hit in the head a few times, so 335 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: I could, I could, you know, not have the best memory. Yeah, 336 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,360 Speaker 1: but as a coach, I don't think. I mean, as 337 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: a player, I don't think it matters, but it definitely helps. 338 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 1: And Pordamika was a darn good one too, you know 339 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: what I mean. So it just not just like a 340 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: oh he played and then you know he kind of 341 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: moved his way up because you know his name. No, 342 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 1: he was a darn good player, and now he's a 343 00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: darn good coach. And it's proven because he's seen what 344 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:32,080 Speaker 1: the Fortnighters defense has done. And you see what players 345 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:35,560 Speaker 1: he's groomed as he was a part of the fort 346 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: Nighters defense, whether it was Fred Warner or whoever else. Right, 347 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: you see the type of influence he had on those guys. 348 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: Just why the game? Right, So if I'm a player 349 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 1: and I'm watching them in the playoffs, he's hugging the players. 350 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 1: The players are excited to come to him. He's high 351 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: five and the guy after a big play, everybody's think 352 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: at the interception, they're running back to the sideline, and 353 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: he's the first one to congratulate them more, or he 354 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: runs or the players runs to him. That's a big deal. 355 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: That's that's showing me that. Number one, he has a 356 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,200 Speaker 1: relationship with him. Number Two, he's having fun and the 357 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,399 Speaker 1: players are having a good time. Number three, they're he's 358 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,719 Speaker 1: expecting to go out there and play well, Like he's acknowledging, Hey, 359 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: you're playing well, great job. Let's continue this. Right. So 360 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 1: if I'm a player, I'm excited to play for him. 361 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 1: Like I think this is a really, really big deal. 362 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: So yes, I mean to ask your question. No, I 363 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: don't think it matters button today's society. Maybe it does 364 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: a little more, honestly, Cecil Shorts joining us on Texans Radio. Cecil, 365 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: I know you do the in stadium announcing. Now we'll 366 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: get to that in a moment. But I'm old enough 367 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: to remember when you played here twenty fifteen, you joined 368 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: the Texans, and it's a very weird year. Hard knocks, 369 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: Ryan Mallett, Brian Hoyer, Savage gets hurt in the preseason 370 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: quarterback parade, including but not limited to t J. Yates 371 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: and Brandon wheedon what was that like the team starting 372 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: off two and five. What were you thinking? What did 373 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: I get myself into? Yet you guys showed that, hey, 374 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 1: you're never out of it if you start playing well 375 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: and go on a run. Yeah. Man, that was we 376 00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 1: were when we started off two and five. We kind 377 00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: of it just might have putting the right pieces together 378 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 1: and getting the right things going. So we kind of 379 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,239 Speaker 1: put our head down and I think coach O'Brien at 380 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: the time did a good job of helping us stay 381 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:09,719 Speaker 1: together and keeping us united, and we made a run 382 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: towards the end of the year making the playoffs. Um, 383 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: but that was that was a weird year, having hard 384 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: knocks and then kind of flip flopping quarterbacks and um, 385 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: kind of figure out out who we are as the offense. 386 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: You kind of knew who were as a defense. We're 387 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: trying to figure out who we are as offense and 388 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,199 Speaker 1: you know, Arian Bat, mister Foster battling some injuries here 389 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: and there. So, um, it was a it was a 390 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,879 Speaker 1: crazy year, but we ended up turning that thing around. 391 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: So it's definitely something I never forget. Uh, it was 392 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 1: a lot of fun that year being able to make 393 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: the playoffs. That's my first year making the playoffs. Um, 394 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: so that was the only year making the playoffs. Actually, 395 00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: so that was like a special place in my heart 396 00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: park she So, I know that you're a head coach 397 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: at the time, didn't care for hard knocks. How did 398 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:52,199 Speaker 1: the players feel about doing hard knocks that summer? We 399 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 1: actually thought it was fun, Like we didn't mind it, 400 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: Like they weren't in the way. Um, they you know, 401 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: chose to follow us certain players and follow up different places, 402 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 1: which made it fun as a player. You watch it? 403 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: For me, I watched it so I enjoyed the heck 404 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 1: out of it. Um, just to be on HBO and 405 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: and and had that experience and UM, to be honest, 406 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: like everybody that worked for HBO, they were extremely nice. 407 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: They were extremely caring. They were x before. They will 408 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 1: follow you, they will ask make sure it's okay, They 409 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: would communicate with the PR department. They just did a 410 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,040 Speaker 1: really good job of making sure they take care of 411 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: you and try okay. And then that they spread it 412 00:19:32,119 --> 00:19:33,840 Speaker 1: like like a good light on what's going on, you 413 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: know what I mean? So I thought it was a 414 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 1: just a really really, really good fun experience. See, so 415 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: what are you doing now with second Baptists? What can 416 00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 1: you tell us about what your life is like every 417 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: day professionally, and then we'll get into the stadium stuff. Um. 418 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: So I'm adina students at Second Baptist Middle School. Uh, 419 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: basically I'm in charge of all discipline, right, So you're man, 420 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 1: you're true vincent. So it's fun, um, but it's hard 421 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: same time, you know what I mean. But it's cool 422 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: because I coach a lot of middle school sports. I'm 423 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,679 Speaker 1: coaching middle school softball right now. Do not ask me 424 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: my record, but we're improving. And then middle school football, 425 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: high school football helped out last couple last three years 426 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: I helped out. That was a lot of fun. So 427 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: this same active and for me, I just enjoy kids. 428 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: I got seven of them myself. But as far as 429 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,959 Speaker 1: the middle school sports like and me being a disciplinarian, 430 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: that's how I build relationship with the kids through the coaching, right, 431 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 1: so they know I'm coming from a place of love 432 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: when I do have to discipline them. That's one of 433 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,480 Speaker 1: the reason why coach softball. Yeah, my youngest daughter wants 434 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 1: to play softball, so she's in a coach pitch right now. 435 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 1: But for me to truly make an impact on these 436 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 1: kids and girls as well, let me coach a sport 437 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: that strictly girls get to know them. So now I'm 438 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:50,439 Speaker 1: building a relationship. I'm a good mentor to them. But 439 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,919 Speaker 1: also if I need to correct them or guide them 440 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: or say hey, I need you to do this next time, 441 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: they can take it from a place of love and 442 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: they understand. Okay, coach shorte what he cares about me, 443 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 1: and the same thing with the guys. But the guy's 444 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: a little more easier with football and basketball and stuff. 445 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,919 Speaker 1: But that's that's kind of a nuts field what I 446 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,800 Speaker 1: where I do outside of the endgame stuff that I'm 447 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 1: telling you right now. There was one person on my 448 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: campus when I was coaching that I made sure I 449 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: had a good relationship with the students, Dena students see 450 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 1: so I see you next. I'll tell you some of 451 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 1: the stories about this joker. I mean he was crafty. 452 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 1: He was pretty crafty. I mean there were times he 453 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 1: would climb to the roof of this school and watch 454 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: kids leave and take down their license place they put them. Yeah, 455 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 1: he was, he was. He was a different kind, There's 456 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: no doubt about that. But the people that listen see 457 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: so they get to see you where you're doing work 458 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 1: on a Sunday here in the stadium, and I gotta say, man, 459 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: you get to place electric. How have you really grown 460 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: in that role? And how do you enjoy what you 461 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 1: get a chance to do on Sundays here at the stadium. 462 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,560 Speaker 1: You know what, when I first talked out the role, 463 00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 1: I was terrified. Not terrified, that's the wrong attitude. I 464 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: was nervous. I'm like, no, I don't know, I don't 465 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: know about this. But as time went on, I'm like, no, 466 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go ahead and do it. But as time 467 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:14,679 Speaker 1: went on, I love it. It's a chance to be 468 00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 1: close to the field, right close to the players. I 469 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: get to interact with the fans. I'm like, still in 470 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: the community because a lot of stuff I do on 471 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: the fields with these ticket members or with somebody from 472 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: the military, or with the you know, special needs kid, 473 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 1: whatever the case may be. Right, it's so it's still 474 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,159 Speaker 1: connected to the community, used to connect it to the teams, 475 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: to connect it to the players. I absolutely love it, 476 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: and now I've grown a lot more comfortable where I'm 477 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: just having fun. Like so the water Burger Challenge, I'm 478 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: gonna hype it up. I'm gonna try to get the 479 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 1: fans involved before we go out there. I try to 480 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,280 Speaker 1: get the little competitive juices going between the two teams. 481 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: I just try to have fun with it because I 482 00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,280 Speaker 1: viewed as a game show, Like this is opportunity to 483 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: go out there, just like at my own little game show, 484 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: and it's just fun. It's literally a chance for me 485 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: to still be involved with the team. I'm grateful for 486 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 1: the opportunity. And it's only gonna get better. Like as 487 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 1: the team gets better, more more people are in the seats, 488 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: they get more excited, more drinks probably be flowing. It's 489 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,760 Speaker 1: gonna be a great time in the building. Absolutely, all right. 490 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: So back to the middle school coaching thing. Do you 491 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: call plays for the middle school team? I know you're 492 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 1: you assist with the high school team.

Yeah. 494 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: How has that affected how you look at what coaches do? 495 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,520 Speaker 1: If at all? I know you played the game at 496 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: the highest level, Yet here you are calling players and 497 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: I know the pressures on man, all the parents are there. 498 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 1: You want to win, you want to do well. What 499 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,199 Speaker 1: is that? Like? I have the utmost respect for a 500 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: play callers something that it's something that's very hard to 501 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:58,880 Speaker 1: do and because it's easy as a player as far 502 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 1: as you just were about yourself. As a coach, you 503 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,400 Speaker 1: gotta worry about eleven other guys who help and thirteen 504 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,880 Speaker 1: or you getting high school fourteen through eighteen to do 505 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 1: their job and do it consistently and do it well, 506 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: do what you're teaching them to do and understand what's 507 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: going on. And I'm like, what the hell, I'll get mad. 508 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:19,199 Speaker 1: I'm like, these kids are young, they don't no better, right, Um. 509 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 1: But it definitely gives me an appreciation for UM coaches 510 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: at all levels. UM. Play callers. UM. It's you know, 511 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 1: at middle school you don't really prep and watch film 512 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: because they don't. You don't exchange film. High school you do. 513 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: But I couldn't imagine watching, you know, the Sean mcvay's 514 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: and the other guys, how much film they put in 515 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: to prepare. UM. And then you're you're going out there 516 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 1: and you're calling the plays and you're trying to get 517 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: people certain people the ball in certain touches. It's so 518 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 1: intentional as a play caller, like this, I'm calling this 519 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 1: play for this particular player, so they don't throw that 520 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: ball at that player, or we don't run it correctly. 521 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: You're all upset because that this is supposed to work 522 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 1: and this is how I supposed to look. Um, so yeah, 523 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 1: I got I got tremendous respect. Man. It's not an 524 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,399 Speaker 1: easy thing. I actually call it plays with the offense 525 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: last year and um, it wasn't easy. And you got 526 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,679 Speaker 1: parents calling you and emailing you and say, hey, how 527 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 1: about this? How about that love to love has legit stuff. 528 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: I was like, wait a second, leave me alone. Yeah, 529 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean it's funny. See. So I'm just like seeing 530 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: my whole career in RI. I think the one thing 531 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,360 Speaker 1: that I found out cecil when I came right out 532 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: of college and I went down and they were like, 533 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,239 Speaker 1: you're the head junior half football coach of twenty two. 534 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 1: I've been out of college for three three months, and 535 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, I know the game. I know this, 536 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: I know that. What I didn't realize was what they 537 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:36,479 Speaker 1: didn't know. The very first game we played, I had 538 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: an eighth grader and he was the biggest kid I had, 539 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 1: and there was a false start, so the referee took 540 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,919 Speaker 1: the ball and he moved it back five yards. I 541 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: just figured everybody knew you moved up with the ball. 542 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 1: He went and lined up in his original spots five 543 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,440 Speaker 1: yards back and I'm young at my linebacker like move him, 544 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: move him, And I called the play went on and 545 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 1: he was five yards beyond the ball. He's a he's 546 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: the three technique. I called him. All I said, John, 547 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: I said, you do realize on a penalty you're supposed 548 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: to go with the ball like you're the closest to 549 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,719 Speaker 1: the ball. He goes, Oh, I didn't know that. I mean, 550 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: when you coach middle school football, you have no idea 551 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: what they don't know, and it's kind of interesting to 552 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,520 Speaker 1: see the light go on when they do find out 553 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,159 Speaker 1: something is actually kind of cool. When you have that 554 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:20,960 Speaker 1: moment where they're like, oh, yeah, that was kind of 555 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: cool and you coach them to do that, that's always fun, 556 00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: you know what. That moment you talked about, when it 557 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: clicks for him, that's a satisfying feeling as a coach 558 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:32,959 Speaker 1: because they understand, now, okay, this is what I'm supposed 559 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: to do and they go out there and do it well. 560 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: I guess a different feeling as a player, and then 561 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 1: as a coach it's like, wow, yes, you get it. 562 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: I let's do it again and again. And again. So 563 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: it's definitely it's definitely pretty good. See. So that's all 564 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: the time we have for today.

You know, it's 580 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 1: interesting if you're delayed and you're listening a lag right 581 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: and they go to a break, you don't hear the 582 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: whole commercial. No, that's right. Sorry, advertisers. So if I have, 583 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 1: I told you this one. So I was listening on 584 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: the Odyssey app. And I'll do this from time to time. 585 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 1: When you text Sean and it was landing John and 586 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,639 Speaker 1: I set them a text and they're like what, And 587 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 1: then I realized, oh man, it was I'm sorry, I'm listening. 588 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,919 Speaker 1: I was yesterday. I was like two hours behind you, guys. 589 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 1: So that's happened a few times doing that way. But 590 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: I love the app. I mean every I'll say this 591 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: ad told us yesterday. Every time I get into car, 592 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 1: no matter what time I get into car, if it's 593 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:15,080 Speaker 1: post twelve twenty, I go find the Odyssey app and 594 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 1: I listen to Lunchtime Confessions every day. Great bit every day. 595 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 1: It could be nice. I could leave here at nin 596 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,399 Speaker 1: o'clock at night. It'll be the first thing I go 597 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,919 Speaker 1: back to and listen twelve to twenty every day. Lunchtime Confessions. Boys, 598 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 1: good job with that segment. I think Figgy sort of 599 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 1: invited me on his podcast through Twitter. I know I 600 00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 1: beat you to it, but it's okay, Oh you're gonna 601 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 1: be on. No. I did it a couple weeks ago. 602 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: I think they wanted me on because maybe he's a 603 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: DUS Vaughan fan, and I brought it up last night. 604 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: It happened around them, but I didn't check Twitter right away. Anyway, 605 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: let's do this. It's more likely to happen. And we've 606 00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: got a few of these, and one of them I 607 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,520 Speaker 1: might have done before, but we'll do it again. Believe 608 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: more to happen. I'm Johnny more likely to happen offense 609 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: or defense for the Texan's top of the second round 610 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: offense or defense second round. I'm not gonna narrow it 611 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 1: down to position groups because we don't really know what 612 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna do, particularly at twelve. You know, you think 613 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 1: you might know it too, Yeah, quarterback, but who knows, 614 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 1: Maybe they don't, maybe they wait, who knows how they 615 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,719 Speaker 1: handle this. Here's how I would I wouldn't mind it 616 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 1: because I quarterback at two, because I think you have 617 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: options of really good quarterbacks at two. So quarterback at two. 618 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: I think twelve ends up being a spot where you 619 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: might be able to snatch up one of the edge rushers. 620 00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: I think. I don't think Tybree Wilson gets there. I 621 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 1: don't think will Enerson gets there. But I have key 622 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: On White and my mock draft going to the Texans there. 623 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,719 Speaker 1: I think that would be a great well. Miles Murphy 624 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 1: from Clemson could fall. I love him, he would be 625 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: a he would be that'd be a home run at 626 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: number twelve. But if they end up having a number 627 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: those those defensive ends available, you know, Lucas Vanes is 628 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: another one. Oh my gosh, that's so mad because Dean 629 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 1: Brewer stole my player comp. I was trying to find 630 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: a player comp for Lucas Vans and then he tweeted 631 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: I found it, and he posted the trailer for Cocaine Bear. 632 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 1: Oh gosh. I was like, that's Lucas vs. That's how 633 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 1: he plays. So I think there's an opportunity there at 634 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: twelve to come up with one of those edge rushers 635 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: that have got nut. I mean, you're talking two seventy 636 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: five and higher edge rushers with smith utticism. Yeah, so 637 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: you're talking some big dudes. So that's where I think 638 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 1: they go at twelve. I think whether you call it 639 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: pick thirty three or thirty four, it's the second pick 640 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: of the second round. I think they go back offense. 641 00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: I think they go back to offense at that point 642 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: because I think that's a nice I think that's a 643 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: nice spot for a number of the receivers that could 644 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: be on the board. You could have one or two 645 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: of them that you didn't expect to fall fall to 646 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 1: you there. I think that Quentin Johnston Jordan Addison both 647 00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: go in to first round. Who knows what happens with 648 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: Jalen Hyatt, The Speeds are from Tennessee. Who knows what 649 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: happens with Jackson Smith and Jigba and along those lines. 650 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: In my mock, I actually traded back into the first 651 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: round because there's a linebacker there that I really like, 652 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: Mark and Saw Drew Sanders. But I think there's gonna 653 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: be a sweet spot for a couple of tight ends. 654 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 1: Darniel Washington, Georgia could be there. The receivers I mentioned, 655 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: you could even have kind of multi use running back threats. 656 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 1: Where does Jamir Gibbs go from Alabama? You ended up 657 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:07,160 Speaker 1: with the next Jamal Charles? Would you take that at 658 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: thirty three or thirty four? Yes? Yes, So I think 659 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some offensive players that end up there 660 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: at the top of the second round. So that's where 661 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. I think running back is the least 662 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: likely position in the first two, maybe three rounds, if 663 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 1: I had to vote least likely position. But that's another 664 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 1: segment for another day, and I'll explain why later as well. 665 00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 1: Let's get to the next one here. More likely to happen, 666 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: all right, more likely to have a better season. I 667 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: might have asked you this last week, but I don't care. 668 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,479 Speaker 1: We're gonna go with it every week, especially as things develop. 669 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 1: And things did develop this week for a team that 670 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,239 Speaker 1: resides in Nashville, Tennessee called the Tennessee Titans, as they 671 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: got rid of some players more likely to have a 672 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 1: better year, the Titans of the Cults, Johnny, Who's gonna 673 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: have the better season out of those two colts? Oh? 674 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: And here's why I say that. I think if anything 675 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: happens to Derrick Henry third in the season. And I'll 676 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 1: say that I've said this for a million years. I 677 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: never want to see anybody get hurt. Never if something 678 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 1: did happen to Henry, they've got nothing. What offensively scares 679 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: you not much? But I want to say in twenty 680 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: twenty one, they put together a running game, but they 681 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:23,360 Speaker 1: had Deyonta Foreman, hid A. J. Brown, and they had 682 00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill still playing at a decent clip. It wasn't great. 683 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what they're gonna do with Tannehill. I mean, 684 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: Malik Wilson be there, but they're gonna rely on him. 685 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,120 Speaker 1: We saw what he looked like in a couple of games, 686 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: So I don't think that if Henry goes down, they've 687 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: got nothing offensively. Now Luan's gone, Ben Jones is potentially gone. 688 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: So they've got a whole entire reset going on for 689 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 1: Tim Kelly and that offense complete reset. Robert Woods, Bobby 690 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: Trees is gone. Now Burks is gonna develop. I think 691 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: Burks is gonna turn into a really good player. That's 692 00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: gonna happen. But he's gotta stay healthy. He's gotta get 693 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 1: himself in shape. I think the defense with Bayard and 694 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: tell your Tart and of course Jeffrey Simmons, they gotta 695 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: get a contract worked out for him. They'll get Harold 696 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: Landry back. The defense will be okay. The Colts have 697 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 1: talent all across the board. Now the offensive line has 698 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: got to go to a much higher level. But I 699 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: think the Colts kind of had their sort of reset 700 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 1: year where they hit bottom and now they go back up. 701 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: I don't know that the Titans have hit complete bottom yet, 702 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: so I'm thinking the Titans do, and I think the 703 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: Colts take that step. I don't know who plays quarterback 704 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: for them. I think it's gonna be a young but 705 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: it's not gonna be a great year for the Colts 706 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: if it's a young quarterback. But they got a lot 707 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 1: of talent around that young quarterback a lot, so I 708 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: think the Colts will be fine on both sides of 709 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 1: the ball. I don't think the Tits are gonna be 710 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: fine on the offensive side. I'm not counting Henry out. 711 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 1: If Henry's there, it gives them a chance. But I 712 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: still think the Colts will make more progress. Well, you 713 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: know how the Cults my most hated team in the 714 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 1: history of teams. That's correct. And the Texans did not 715 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: lose to the Colts this year, one oh in one. 716 00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: Yet after both games we felt weird. Att they weren't losses, tie, 717 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,320 Speaker 1: you felt weird, and the last win you felt weird 718 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: because well, number one pick in the draft or a 719 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: victory here right now is just a weird day. All right, 720 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 1: Let's get to the top, all right. More likely is 721 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: a most likely here most likely team to falter that 722 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 1: was in the AFC's Final four. So you have the Jags, 723 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, the Bills, or the Bengals. Who's got the 724 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 1: best chance to falter here this year? I mean, the 725 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,759 Speaker 1: Jacks seemed to be on their way up, but you'd 726 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:37,640 Speaker 1: ever know now the Jags. Here's the nasty little secret 727 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,760 Speaker 1: about the Jacks. Y As we've talked about Trevor Lawrence, 728 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: and we got all that down and Trevor's gonna make 729 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 1: up for a lot a lot, But when that offense 730 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: was turning the ball over too much, not doing what 731 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: it needed to do, that defense saved them. And it 732 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 1: saved them with guys like Roy Robertson Harris, Davon Hamilton. Well, 733 00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:00,839 Speaker 1: Roy Robertson Harris is a possibility to be a cap 734 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: casualty because, as was said on I think it was 735 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 1: on Twitter somewhere NFL article, a credit card bill came due. 736 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 1: It's coming due. They're over the cap, so they've got 737 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,439 Speaker 1: to make some decisions about what they're gonna do with 738 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 1: some of that cap money. And I know the Jaguars, 739 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 1: like you said, they're on the way up, and there's 740 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 1: some young players that are part of that, in particular 741 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 1: the quarterback. But they're gonna be some players that were 742 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: part of the fabric, a pretty significant part of the fabric, 743 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 1: that are gonna have to be released. They're gonna have 744 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: to change a contract or change something, and that could 745 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 1: disrupt things a little bit. That said, I think Trevor 746 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: makes up for it. So the four quarterbacks you're talking about, 747 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Trevor, Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow, do you 748 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:42,359 Speaker 1: see any of those four falling off? Not too much. No, 749 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with the one that is the 750 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,959 Speaker 1: last one kind of through the door, kind of last 751 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: one in first one out. Let's go with the Jags 752 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 1: going out. You're right, Okay, we got about sixty seconds 753 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: for this next one. More likely to happen, more likely 754 00:35:56,560 --> 00:36:00,680 Speaker 1: to happen, We're likely to happen. First, Texans get hard knocks, 755 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: whether it be in season or preseason, or the Texans 756 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: play an international game, which is going to happen. First 757 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:12,120 Speaker 1: international game. I presume Mexico City again, but you never know. 758 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: I'm thinking twenty twenty four for both. That's what I 759 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,439 Speaker 1: was thinking for both. I was I wasn't thinking about 760 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,919 Speaker 1: hard knocks. But I was thinking International Game twenty twenty four, 761 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,000 Speaker 1: That's what I was thinking. For some reason. That would 762 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: be eight years from when we went to Mexico. It's 763 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: kind of eight years when we're on the cycle with 764 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,919 Speaker 1: NFC teams and it's got to be an even year 765 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 1: because wait, did I say it right? How many how 766 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: many home games we have? This? Yew? This is a nine? 767 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, twenty five in Mexico or one of the 768 00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: nine would be in Mexico City. You could be visiting, 769 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,359 Speaker 1: you could an NFC team in Mexico City, you could 770 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,320 Speaker 1: be playing. Well, you're not going to play the Cardinals 771 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 1: next year because they have them this year and it's 772 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:49,319 Speaker 1: part of that there. So no, you're not gonna play 773 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:51,440 Speaker 1: Dallas there. I think I'm saying twenty five when we 774 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: get nine games again, I think we end up going 775 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: to Mexico City. Who's the NFC Division Next year it's 776 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: NFC South. It's no no. This year. The following year 777 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 1: it's the twenty one season NFC Division West East South. 778 00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,279 Speaker 1: It'll be the North North in twenty four. Okay, So 779 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 1: would you play in the Chicago Bears. It would be 780 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,799 Speaker 1: if you were playing one of those teams. It would 781 00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,840 Speaker 1: be in Europe. It would not be in Mexico. I 782 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't think there are too many Detroit 783 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,800 Speaker 1: Lions fans in Mexico. I don't know. Probably right, I 784 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:23,919 Speaker 1: don't want Let's go to Europe. I mean the city 785 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. I love I loved their international game. I 786 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 1: didn't think I would. I did not think I would. Yeah, 787 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,839 Speaker 1: loved it. Loved it too, yes, absolutely, all right. Coming up, 788 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,480 Speaker 1: Johnny's gonna give me two candidates to be the next 789 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 1: brock Purty. So this year, one of these two quarterbacks 790 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 1: could be the next brock Purty. He'll tell you that next. 791 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 1: It's Texans Radio final segment here on Texans All Access tonight. 792 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,920 Speaker 1: Great to have you listening, Mark VanderMeer and John Harris. Johnny, 793 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: the next brock Purty. I teased this, and I have 794 00:37:54,719 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: no names at the ready, but I know you do. 795 00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: Who could possibly be it? Now? He doesn't have to 796 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 1: be mister relevant, but he has to be a player 797 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 1: drafted in the seventh round or an undrafted free agent. Oh, 798 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,359 Speaker 1: at least a very late round draft choice. I don't 799 00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: think the sixth even counts. Sometimes that's a guy who 800 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 1: drops who's got a big name, but he drops, you know, 801 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,839 Speaker 1: like a Stetson Bennett. Yeah, nobody wanted him. He went 802 00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,399 Speaker 1: in the sixth round. Whatever the case may be, give 803 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,879 Speaker 1: me a Brock party for this year. Well, if you're 804 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 1: talking round three, round four ish, it got kind off 805 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,400 Speaker 1: the beating. Pat Jake Haner six ft one ninety five 806 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 1: from out of Fresno State, Johnny, he's going higher. You've 807 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:32,640 Speaker 1: sold me on him. I think he's gonna end up 808 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 1: in the third as Yeah, but you know, Max Duggan 809 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,800 Speaker 1: is out there. Stetson Bennett's out there. Dorian Thompson Robinson 810 00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 1: from UCLA is a really intriguing player to me. Strong arm, 811 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 1: played right receiver in high school until he got his 812 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:45,799 Speaker 1: final senior year he finally got to play quarterback. He 813 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:49,280 Speaker 1: had a commitment to UCLA and he never played quarterback 814 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 1: because he had been a receiver. Because the guy had 815 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: been there, Tate Martell, had been the quarterback for a while. 816 00:38:53,040 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 1: So he goes UCLA kind of grew up as a quarterback. 817 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 1: He's got he's got movement skills like Brock. I think 818 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,080 Speaker 1: he can end up fitting in an offense like Brock. 819 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna end up to Day three. Guy, 820 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,720 Speaker 1: but a guy way way off the radar screen.

A lot of questions about 854 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,280 Speaker 1: what the forty nine ers are going to do at quarterback. 855 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,839 Speaker 1: They I beg Garoppolo ends up back there. Somehow they 856 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: can never get it right and it's not all their 857 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:02,799 Speaker 1: fault injuries and whatever else, but man, oh Man, do 858 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 1: they have some bad luck injury wise, Thomas Edward Brady 859 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:11,439 Speaker 1: for one year? M does he do it? It's got 860 00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: to be tempting to him. One year? Wait a minute, 861 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 1: we have not had the press conference yet. No, but 862 00:41:16,800 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 1: he did submit the paperwork, So what do you want 863 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:22,360 Speaker 1: to retire? Right? And he's an unrestricted free agent? He is, 864 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,360 Speaker 1: he's on paperwork? Back and then go to San Francisco. 865 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 1: Does it? One year in your hometown? Bro? Do it? 866 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,640 Speaker 1: Do it? Tom? Do it? I always thought this, and 867 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:33,280 Speaker 1: I thought this about last year. I was thinking, where's 868 00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:37,279 Speaker 1: the press conference? Because he was under contract last year? Right, Well, 869 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,480 Speaker 1: he said he didn't want to do it. He did 870 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 1: it on on the beach, and now they're selling the 871 00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:42,400 Speaker 1: sand for like one hundred thousand dollars sat in. Just 872 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,440 Speaker 1: you feel like there should be a gathering, right the 873 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame is five years away. Shouldn't there be 874 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,280 Speaker 1: a Brady celebration of sorts? How about this? He doesn't 875 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,719 Speaker 1: have to start the Fox gig for another year? Why 876 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: does he get a gap year if Fox? I'm pissed. 877 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 1: I'm taking Wait a minute, I've been thirty million for 878 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 1: this and they're painting him. I think they're painting him 879 00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 1: for the Pretty sure, I'm pretty sure I heard that. 880 00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: I hope I'm wrong, but I swear to you I 881 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,319 Speaker 1: heard that. I wonder what the ROI is gonna be 882 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:15,760 Speaker 1: on this. I know that we always say nobody watches 883 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:17,720 Speaker 1: the game. They listen to the game for the announcer, 884 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: but they might not watch the game for the announcer. Okay, 885 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 1: there's a big difference. Radio is important people. For that 886 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:27,319 Speaker 1: amount of money, he's gonna have to be all of them, right, 887 00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 1: I mean, Romo makes eighteen million. He's been mailing it in. 888 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:34,279 Speaker 1: He's been mailing it in. Yeah, for that amount of money, 889 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 1: I know he better be great and we'll see. All right, 890 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,359 Speaker 1: that's gonna do it for the show tonight Tomorrow night. 891 00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:40,520 Speaker 1: Much more coming up as we gear up to the 892 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,680 Speaker 1: Combine next week.
