Right. It definitely helped, you know, 62 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: both coaching staffs I had um benefited me extremely from 63 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: coach Graham's coaching staff to coach herms coaching staff. Um, 64 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: they both helped me grows um a lot.

You know 70 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: when you're when you're going through a transition like that 71 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: and you have to learn a bunch of new plays. Um, 72 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 1: it's really just about the time you put in in 73 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 1: the efforts you put in. So for me, it just 74 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: taught me more how to be a pro and and 75 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: how to handle myself in situations like that, you know, 76 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: just the way they did things. You know, I felt like, Um, 77 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: you know, like I said earlier, it's a great organization.

So you know, 80 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: when I came into the visit, I just I just 81 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,920 Speaker 1: felt like, Um, there was something different. I just felt 82 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: like there was a different approach and in a different mentality. Yeah, 83 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: I just feel like we're all hell to a higher standard. 84 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 1: Everybody in the building. UM. And you know, that's that's 85 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: what I need. That's what everybody needs to to progress 86 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 1: and to advance. So I'm looking forward to it. Yeah, 87 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: you know, just the people. You know, I've really enjoyed 88 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: the people around the organization. You know, I feel like 89 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 1: it's a very family oriented organization, UM, especially with the 90 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: fans and everything. So you know, it's it's it's been 91 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:34,240 Speaker 1: a great experience for me so far. Period. Yeah. I 92 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: spoke with him a little bit. UM. You know, he's 93 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: just telling me to do what I've been doing, you know, 94 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: just make sure I come and ready to go and 95 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: ready to get to work significantly. What's one thing you'd 96 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 1: like to you know, give back in in any way 97 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: that I can, you know, definitely help my family, UM, 98 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 1: helps him people on the island. You know, I feel 99 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: like with this platform I've been given, I feel like 100 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: it's my duty to do something good with it. God 101 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:11,159 Speaker 1: has blessed me to be in this position, So it 102 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: would be a disservice if I didn't give back and 103 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: if I didn't show appreciation. So so that's my biggest goal, 104 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: not anything specific. I'm still trying to trying to figure 105 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 1: it out, but I definitely want to help you know, 106 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: I feel like there's a lot of talent on the 107 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: island and I just feel like it just doesn't get seen, 108 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,680 Speaker 1: you know. So whatever I can do to help, I'm 109 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 1: more than willing to do that. And you know, I 110 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: haven't really explored it too much just because there's been 111 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: so much going on, but that's definitely something I want 112 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 1: to look into into the future. For me, just come 113 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: in and listen to everything everybody is saying, be coachable, 114 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: and you know, just keep the mindset I've had throughout 115 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: the years. Um. You know, I'm extremely I'm an extremely 116 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: hard worker, and I feel like if I just keep 117 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: doing what I'm doing and you know, just take it 118 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: to a to a different level, you know, I feel 119 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 1: like I'll be Okay. She's been everything. There's no way 120 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: I would have been in this position if if my 121 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 1: grandmother wasn't a part of my life. She's been a 122 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: great role model. Um. That's why I get my work 123 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: ethic from, I believe just seeing how hard she works, 124 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: seeing her come from a different country and having a 125 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: start over. Um. So I really do know that there's 126 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: no way I would be in this position without without 127 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 1: that woman.

But these past 133 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: couple of weeks, my biggest things have just been making 134 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: sure I stay in shape, and you know, just making 135 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,239 Speaker 1: sure I'm studying a lot, watching a lot of film, 136 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: and you know, I want to be a type of 137 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: player that that comes in and can be accountable from 138 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: day one. Excuse me, Yeah, so I've been studying a lot. 139 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: When you take away, it's about larry process. Um. Like 140 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: I said earlier, Um, with the transition, this is a 141 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: it's a different transition, and you know, it's all about 142 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,719 Speaker 1: the work you put in, the time you put it in, 143 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: the efforts you put in. So that's what I've been 144 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: doing the past couple of weeks, and that's what I'm 145 00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: going to continue to do. What my favorite piece of 146 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 1: game film? Um, I don't really have a favorite piece. 147 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: I've just been you know, looking all over, just just 148 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: trying to soak in as much information as possible. You 149 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: with things, sense Um, That's honestly not a question for 150 00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: me to answer. UM that that would be a question 151 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: for coach Belichick and his staff. UM. So yeah, sorry, 152 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: were you losing your mind when you didn't have any 153 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: sole reception when you're trying to get I wasn't losing 154 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: my mind, but I was definitely nervous. You know, there 155 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 1: was a part of me that I was like, Okay, 156 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: they can't get a hold of me. I hope they 157 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: don't go on to the next person. So that was 158 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: that was a bit of the fear I was having. 159 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: But you know, it ended up working out. Worst case scenario. Yeah, 160 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: most definitely. I was in the mountains, we were far 161 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: in Scottsdale, so it was hard to get reception, but 162 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: it ended up working out.
