I'm just 38 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: trying to do a really good job, listen to the coaches, 39 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: listening to Tray staff, uh and and come here and 40 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: try to compete and get better every single day. And 41 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: my motto this year is, you know what every coach, 42 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: whatevery coaches want me to do, Just go out there 43 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: and try to compete and do the best of my ability. 44 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,559 Speaker 1: Thinking how much did you know man breed it before 45 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 1: he got here. And uh, and what you're I know 46 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: he's has not been practicing lately. But what you're impression 47 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 1: of what he can bring, you know, it's a problement you. 48 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: I I never got to meet Matt before, but obviously 49 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: just being a fan of game, one thing I knew 50 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: about mad Day's pretty fast. Uh He's really fast, to 51 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: be honest. So I would love to test my speed 52 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: against him. Get him racy. I think he might got 53 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: me in a long distance, but anywhere from sixty and below. 54 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 1: I think I could take him on that. But he's 55 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: been a great teammate. Uh. He come from you know, 56 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,239 Speaker 1: he's been the system before, so he's kind of been, 57 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: you know, the vetting the room, someone who I can 58 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: go lean on too when I have questions about whether 59 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,679 Speaker 1: it's technique or footwork or okay on dis player with 60 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: your eyes at Uh. So it's great to have someone 61 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:46,840 Speaker 1: in the room like that, and not only with myself, 62 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,799 Speaker 1: but with with tone. With tone to coming in being 63 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,799 Speaker 1: the system, he's been great also. So all the want 64 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: of backs been doing a great job competing. We have 65 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,399 Speaker 1: a revery competitive room. So um, inside of all those guys, 66 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: every time they get out there, it makes it pass. 67 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: What ways do you did frink this year, either physically 68 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: or mentally? Um. The way I feel different is I 69 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: can go out there and just practice. I can go 70 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: out there and you know, work on my craft. Um. 71 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: Last year is kind of more of a battle of 72 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: get to Sunday. You know. Um that's a big difference. Uh. 73 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: I couldn't do camp. And then during the week, Uh, 74 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: once I start feeling good again, and then I had 75 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: a thing where I stepped someone's foot against Dallas, and 76 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: then you know, you gotta grind. You gotta grind and 77 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: try to get to Sunday. Now, Um, you know I 78 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: can come out and work with my craft and and 79 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: get better every single day. Um, that's the biggest difference. 80 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: And practice make perfect. I'm a big believering Now obviously 81 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,880 Speaker 1: no one ever gonna be perfect. My game would never 82 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: be perfect, but uh, that's something that you're gonna shoot 83 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: for and go on the way you can do that 84 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 1: as by practicing and you interrupt him sick going coach, 85 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: they won't talk about being really happy with you getting 86 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: north and south when you've been running. Is that a count? 87 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: Has that been a conscious effort? For you to get 88 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: north and south and get the ball up the field. 89 00:03:55,600 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: Uh no, Um, to be honest, Um, that's just part 90 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 1: of my game. And you know as a running back, 91 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: understanding the scheme, understanding the what I gotta do, you know, 92 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: Like I mean, it's like probably las time I'm gonna 93 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: speak on this. Like I know people wanna say dancing 94 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: and this and then the third and he don't get 95 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: north and south. But like I'm not going to just 96 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: run into any of my linement back. That's not how 97 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: I play the game. That's not what I how I've 98 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: been playing since I was eight years old. Um, I've 99 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: been playing positions for every long time and by by 100 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 1: no means and my perfect running back, and I still 101 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: got so much work to do. But like I know, 102 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: that's been the conversation or been the thought, or been 103 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: the thing out there that said about me, is you know, 104 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: he don't know what he's doing. He's just dancing back there. 105 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 1: Like I'm really kind of fed up with people who 106 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: never played a position. Um, then try to speak on 107 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: how I running football? Uh, we call him all pros 108 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:49,000 Speaker 1: with clickers in their hand. You know, it's it's running back. 109 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 1: Is it is a tough position. But it's easy to 110 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: be there and watch football and watch on TV or 111 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 1: even watch on watching film and stop the clicking and 112 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: be like, oh, he should have made that cut. Um, 113 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that go into making that cut. 114 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: There's a lot of things showed me in square. Uh, 115 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that have impact on your vision. 116 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: So um. But you know, the coaches have been making 117 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,679 Speaker 1: a point of ever sence of you know, of running 118 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: style that we have as a team and the mentality 119 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:11,919 Speaker 1: we have a team. And like I said, I wouna 120 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: do what every coach want me to do, and that's 121 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 1: been my focus of trying to be the best run 122 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: back I could be for this team. Dable Table is 123 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: the one who said that after the game. So is 124 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: that so that's part of their coaching. You're not to 125 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: do that, not to dance. No, that's not what they're 126 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: So like when when he say it gets north and south, 127 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 1: like he's talking about like the physicality and me trusting myself, 128 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: me getting downhill. But like when people try to make 129 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: it like the north and south like they're trying to 130 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: hint not coaching in particular, but people are trying to 131 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: use that as an example of saying that I'm back 132 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: there like I'm dancing. Like dancing is like stuff that 133 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: you do in high school football or like little league football, 134 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: where you run this way, you run that way, Like 135 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,480 Speaker 1: that's that's not my thought process. Like if if I'm 136 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: making a run, if I'm making a run back in 137 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,839 Speaker 1: the day, and someone break free and in my like 138 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: in my face, I'm not going to just run right 139 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:57,200 Speaker 1: at him, like I'm gonna try to get back to 140 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: a lot of scrimmage. Um, you know, that's part of 141 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: my craft and that's part of my game. And so 142 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: but like I said a coach, that's kind of an emphasis, 143 00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: meaning like all right, we want to get more physical, 144 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: we want to get more downhill, but not saying like, oh, 145 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: you're not hitting north and south. It's just ya. It's 146 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: just the first time in a while you felt like 147 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 1: the guy who came out of Penn State and could 148 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: do anything he wanted on the field. Yeah. I kind 149 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 1: of have that confidence back, um that any time I 150 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,600 Speaker 1: touch the ball that I can take it to the house, 151 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: you know, whether it's blocked up, catch the defense lacking, Um, 152 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: I feel like I can do that. And that comes 153 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 1: like I said, I kind of going back to the 154 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: Jordan's just practice, you know, practice make perfect and the 155 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: represent sharpening yourself, um and work on your craft. What 156 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: have you learned about about Tyrod and what can you 157 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,280 Speaker 1: bring to the table for you guys, Tyra. One thing 158 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: I learned about Tyro. This might sound so weird, but 159 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: he smelled good. Man. I don't know. I'll tell you 160 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: like I'll tell you what like I tell him.
