1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: All right, morning. So you've got a full house here today. UM. Yeah, 2 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,719 Speaker 1: looking forward to working with coach Rule and the Panthers today. 3 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: Great communication with them. I think practices are set up 4 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 1: to UM hopefully go efficiently and UM we just want 5 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: to get the most out of them that we possibly can. 6 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 1: As I said, on all levels yesterday. But that's individually 7 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: schematically UM coaching. UM seeing a different team not knowing 8 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: what they're gonna do, having to make adjustments things like that, 9 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: that's great training for UM, for me and all the 10 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 1: rest of our coaches as well. So UM look forward 11 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 1: to look forward to a good day to day tending 12 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 1: the way of being here. Common quarterback this year, I 13 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 1: think everybody out there is competing to be the best 14 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 1: that they can be. UM. Whatever that turns out to be, 15 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. We'll see. Where do you think he's 16 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: at with you? You are good? Yeah? I think he's 17 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: been good. You know. Jail's a very hard working kid, smart, 18 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: has a lot of position flexibility. We've used him primarily outside, 19 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: but he's played inside, He's played UM safety and probably 20 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: play any of those positions pretty well. UM. But our 21 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: depth of safety right now is Yeah, looks like that's okay. 22 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: So he's worked primarily outside, but he could play inside, 23 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: and we've done that by match up to that type 24 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: of thing. If the guy's on goes into slot, then 25 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 1: he would go inside. Things like that. So we'll see 26 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: how it all plays out. But right now, it's um 27 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: opportunity for everybody to work on their fundamental skills, and 28 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 1: especially a day late to day where we're working against 29 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,639 Speaker 1: players that we're not familiar with, that we haven't covered, 30 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: that have different skill sets and are very good. So um, 31 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: a great chance for all of us are hoping to accomplish. Sorry, 32 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: what are you hoping to accomplish? An nextbolies improve our team? 33 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: It's right here for when you're out here in these 34 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: two sessions. It's every individual session scripted in terms of 35 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: what you want to do and coach who wants to do. 36 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: Or is the reverse session where I just I'll throw 37 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: our our events out there, you throw your defense and 38 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. Let's see. I don't answer that. Well. 39 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: All of it's organized so that we can both get 40 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 1: the most out of it. Most of it is not 41 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 1: precalleds so we don't know who they're gonna have on 42 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: the field or what they're going to do and what 43 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: formation they're going to be in, and they don't know 44 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: the same from us or what defense are going to 45 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: be in. So it's organized to the point where that 46 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: we can operate efficiently. It's not a big mystery as 47 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: to what's going on, but what either team decides to 48 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: do in that situation, it's up to that team. Now 49 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 1: we've ruled out a few things that we just don't 50 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: want to deal with certain person groups or a certain 51 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: situation that would just become too much of a more 52 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,920 Speaker 1: trouble probably than it's worth at this point in time. 53 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: So we've rolled out a few things that we're just 54 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 1: there's not going to come up, Like goal line is 55 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: not going to come up. Well, it's not going to 56 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: be on the one yard line, It'll be somewhere else. 57 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:19,519 Speaker 1: So that would be an example of something that we've 58 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 1: eliminated because the amount of time it would take to 59 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 1: prepare for that for what we would get out of it, 60 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 1: just we don't think would be worth it. So those 61 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: are mutual decisions. But as far as what play is 62 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 1: going to be wrong against what's going to happen to 63 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: a personnel group and so forth, and the down distances 64 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: are somebody knows what they are, so we can be organized, 65 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: but everybody doesn't know what they are, so there's an 66 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: element of recognizing what they are. Billie, you've seen Baker before. 67 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: What challenges does he bring to your defense? And how 68 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: do you just be miss a quarterment? Yeah, right now, 69 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: we're really just focused on development our team, So we're 70 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: not really in the evaluation of everybody else, and there'll 71 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: be a time for that, but right now, our focus 72 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: is on how to make our team better, how to 73 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: coach better, how to play better, how to get our 74 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: units to communicate better and operate more efficiently. So Carolina's 75 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: got a lot of good players. They have a lot 76 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: of guys with different good skill sets. We'll see how 77 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,120 Speaker 1: we match up against them, and we'll learn about them 78 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: as we go, But right now, it's much more focused 79 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 1: on what we're doing than than what they're doing. Although 80 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: we have to be aware of what they're doing in 81 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: order to execute it, but that's it's less of an 82 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: individual matchup. Sure, they'll have a lot of different players 83 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: out there at different positions, as will we. Bill Is 84 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: it safe to say that you get just as much 85 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: out of joint practices maybe as you went out of 86 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: the games. When you meet with these teams in the preseason, well, 87 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 1: in some respects, you get a lot more out of them. 88 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: So they're both good areas. What areas of what you 89 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 1: get potentially more out of the practice than you go 90 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 1: to get. Well, we can set up a lot more 91 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 1: situations that will come up that aren't going to come 92 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: up in preseason games with the players who are most 93 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: likely going to be a m That would be a 94 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: good place to start. Um. Certainly, in a preseason game, 95 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 1: you don't get individual one on ones or two on 96 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 1: twos or those kind of individual matchups that show up 97 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: in a practice session. So there's a lot of differences 98 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: to me practicing games. I mean, we'll be here all 99 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,280 Speaker 1: day talking about that. Do you expect Isaiah Wayn to 100 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: be able to participate his next two days? And what 101 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: have you seen from yondning Yadi's doing well? Isaiah's day 102 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: to day so I don't think he will. I don't 103 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: think he'll purchasepate today. Will this take a day to day? 104 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: Is the reporter Joe Williams shoulder and green and being 105 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 1: out for the season accurate. We'll see how that's going. 106 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: I know he's being evaluated. I'm not sure exactly what 107 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: the results of that evaluation are philosophically, Like, do you 108 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: need a number one quarterback? Is that just a silly 109 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: thing that we do with depth charts or is it 110 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 1: to be a matchup thing? Or do you like having 111 00:05:53,920 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: like the guy for your defense for our defense? Sorry 112 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: I'm confused. Sorry, Yeah, we have a number one quarterback, 113 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: max our quarter corner sorry, cornerback? Okay, sorry, do you 114 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: feel like you need a number one cornerback? I don't know. 115 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:15,239 Speaker 1: I mean defensively, you have who you have, and you 116 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: play with who you play with. I don't know, number 117 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,279 Speaker 1: them however you want doesn't make difference to me. I mean, 118 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:21,599 Speaker 1: you got to put eleven guys out there and they 119 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: got to play well together. It's whoever those loving guys are. 120 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, I don't know number one, number two, number 121 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: one tackle, number two corner. I'm not gonna share of 122 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: confused about that. When it comes to analyzing your roster, 123 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 1: where your streaks started the weeks? Is how big of 124 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: a help our joint practices just to give you a 125 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: look of you know, what you guys are doing well 126 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 1: and where you're not doing well against another team. Yeah, 127 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: I think as we've talked about, the joint practices are 128 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: have value like preseason game would. So these two practices 129 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: UM plus a preseason game, it's three evaluations stead of one, 130 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: and that helps learn more about our players in different matchup. 131 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 1: Sure to build in James white retirement in the ceremonial 132 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,200 Speaker 1: later in stage. Just what do you expect from that 133 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: and what would you like to kind of see him? 134 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: I see him off well. I've talked to James m 135 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: a number of times through the last couple of years, 136 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: last year, prior to the season, and then during the 137 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,239 Speaker 1: season after the injury and the rehab and so forth. 138 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,679 Speaker 1: So I think this will be you know, more about 139 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 1: him and his words and his thoughts and his family, 140 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:36,119 Speaker 1: then it will be about us. I mean I've spoken many, 141 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: many times about James and and all the positive qualities 142 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: and attributes he's brought to our team that I personally 143 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: have benefited from and enjoyed from him as a player, 144 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: as a person, as a captain, as an important part 145 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: of our organization, not just a player. So nothing's changed there. It's, 146 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: if anything, just keeps getting stronger and stronger. UM, he 147 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: continues to always do the right thing and impress everybody 148 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: that he interacts with, and um, you know, has great 149 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: leadership and as a great example for all of us. 150 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: So I think this is really more about him and 151 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: his thoughts and his comments that go on the record 152 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: on most of the rest of it. Regarding communication with 153 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: Matt that he referenced at the outset, did you have 154 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: any relationship with him in his prior coaching students in 155 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: college or with Matt Rule, Yeah, yeah, I'm sure. Um, 156 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: when Matt was a Temple and I have some connections 157 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: to Temple and so there and then of course Baylor 158 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: they had players. And then when he came into the 159 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:50,599 Speaker 1: National Football League Carolina we talked. Then we actually have 160 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: tried to work this out this joint practice session before 161 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 1: just didn't work out. It did this year, which is great. 162 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: But we've talked multiple times to the year. A ton 163 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 1: of respect for a coach Rule, Um, you know, is 164 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: consistency of producing outstanding teams and multiple organizations. Temple, Baylor, 165 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 1: you know, you can see where they're going in Carolina 166 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: as a team that certainly is um, you know, more 167 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,199 Speaker 1: than very competitive. We definitely had our hands full with 168 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: them down there last year. But you can see there 169 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: there the moves that they've made is strengthened their team. Um, 170 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: they're going to be, you know, very very good and 171 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 1: they're gonna challenge in a lot of ways. Defensively, they're 172 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 1: as good as anybody we see. Offensively, they're very explosive. UM. 173 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: They've changed coordinators in the kicking game, UM, but you know, 174 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: the acquisition of Hecker and Roberts, I'm sure we'll impact 175 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: those units dramatically. So it's a great opportunity for us 176 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:49,199 Speaker 1: to work against a good quality football team, has a 177 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: lot of good players, it's well coached, UM, and that 178 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: that's established a lot of strong things on the field. 179 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 1: And I think again you can see where they've tried 180 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: to address some things and I'm sure those will be 181 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: better too. Well. What's your impression of Time Montgomery not. 182 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: He've been a few weeks of camp with him. He's 183 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: been great to work with. Tisman, Um. You know, a 184 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: wonderful kid to have around, very smart, UM, multi skills, 185 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: multi talented player. Offensively in the kicking game, UM showing 186 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: I think he's shown the ability to be competitive in 187 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: a lot of different areas. We'll see how it all 188 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: plays out. But I'm glad we have him. Great to 189 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: work with him, Um and UM, you know look forward 190 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:29,000 Speaker 1: to you know, working with him throughout the course of 191 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: the year on the on the team and multiple roles. 192 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of different things he can do. 193 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 1: We'll have to kind of figure out how that's going 194 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: to play out and how to combine him with other 195 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 1: other players on the field, who else that is and 196 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 1: so forth. But um, that's nice to nice to be 197 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: able to work with him. Talk about to development of 198 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: Matt Jones, how he's progressing, especially on your new offensive quordinator. Yeah, 199 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 1: he's doing fun. I've talked about it all year, his 200 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: second years, way ahead of where it was last year. 201 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: More questions to the development be seen within when it 202 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: comes to route running, pass catching, having pass blocks. Yeah, 203 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: good andres some done a really good job improving his 204 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:12,599 Speaker 1: past game skills, starting with blitz pickup and protection. UM. 205 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 1: Route running, He's got good hands catching the balls. That 206 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: never really been an issue. It's UM setting up defenders, 207 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: UM recognizing coverages, when to sit down, when to break, 208 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: when to depend on what the rest of the pattern is, 209 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: how to how to maximize the distribution on the pattern 210 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 1: um which the back's always kind of the last person 211 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: in the pattern and control flare for flare controls, so 212 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: whatever the rest of the players are running in, the 213 00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: back is generally responsible for filling in being in the 214 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 1: right spot to have distribution, so the quarterback has um 215 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: an outlet or if he's a primary receiver, which that'll 216 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: happen on a few plays, then obviously the UH skill 217 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: of the of the back to execute the route get 218 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: open one of the primary receivers on the pattern is critical. 219 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: But most of the backs routes are come off protection 220 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: and so there's a protection element. There's a actual blocking 221 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: the guy part of it, recognition of it, and then 222 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: being in the general or specific spot that he needs 223 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 1: to be in to compliment the rest of the pattern. 224 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: And that's that comes a lot of experience. There's so 225 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: many different variables there. Each plays a little bit different. 226 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 1: A lot of times. The backs, even their release through 227 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: or around the line of scrimmage, depending on what the rush. 228 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: What's going on with the rush could be quite different 229 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: from play to play, even on the same basic route 230 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,319 Speaker 1: that they're supposed to be running. So it's it's much 231 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: different than the receivers in the tight ends. But he's 232 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: done a good job of again gain experience and all 233 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,599 Speaker 1: that is way better than he was last year. And 234 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,439 Speaker 1: you know he understands this an important part of his games, 235 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: not just carrying the ball, it's all the things to 236 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: go with the passing game. So he's been he's done 237 00:12:55,240 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 1: a great job all right year last year. But yeah, 238 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,959 Speaker 1: good Hunter has Hunter has been good. Uh He's a 239 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:12,120 Speaker 1: little limited at the beginning of the spring, Um, but um, 240 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: he is doing very well. He's again, I think, more 241 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: comfortable in the overall offensive system, UM, just in a 242 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: second year, like most players would be in that situation. 243 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 1: Whether it's and obviously familiarity with Mac like there's chemistry 244 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: that those guys have from last year that'll we've built 245 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,679 Speaker 1: on from this year and I think that's just going 246 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,760 Speaker 1: to continue to to continue to grow. So UM, one 247 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,599 Speaker 1: hundreds a great teammate. He works hard and try to 248 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: help his teammates and certainly is a big lift force 249 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: in the passing game. He can do a lot of 250 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: different things, and you know, we have a lot of 251 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 1: confidence in him as a coaching staff. I know the 252 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: quarterbacks do too. So all right, thank you
