Both 0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:36.519 you've been part of it and I was involved last 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:41.560 week on this thing. Is I like life skills, social 0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:44.520 media eating right. I Mean some of the stuff makes 0:02:44.639 --> 0:02:46.760 be stuff you don't really want to hear about, but 0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:52.280 they're throwing it out their investment stuffiold, Yeah, I think 0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:54.320 it's great. Don't you Don't you like that they're doing. 0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:56.680 I'm sure you they're probably parts of it. You roll 0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:58.880 your eyes, But a lot of it's good stuff. Yeah. 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:01.480 I was just talking when I came in, Uh, just 0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:04.079 walking in here. Um, you know, there's so much information 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:06.120 that you can't take it in on one day. I 0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:08.399 do a great job was taking notes and looking back 0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:11.120 on it. Um and I try to share with my family, um, 0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:13.839 sharing different people around you. Uh, this is one time 0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.400 you talk to a teammate and he had looked back 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:18.360 from Oh I forgot all about that. So it's just 0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:21.480 that constant communication is just learning so much information. It's 0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:23.080 hard soaking in. But you just trying to do as 0:03:23.160 --> 0:03:25.200 much as you can. And uh, you know, the long 0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:26.680 run is definitely gonna pay uf. Now, I know you 0:03:26.680 --> 0:03:28.720 haven't been on the field yet with the team out 0:03:28.720 --> 0:03:31.359 of practice that an O t A. But what's it been, Like, 0:03:31.400 --> 0:03:34.120 what's the biggest difference for you time wise when you 0:03:34.200 --> 0:03:36.400 hit the building in the morning compared to when you're 0:03:36.400 --> 0:03:39.120 in college, Because I don't think people really understand the 0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:41.760 time that that's involved. And you haven't even gotten to 0:03:41.800 --> 0:03:44.320 the regular season yet. So just take us through maybe 0:03:44.400 --> 0:03:47.600 the biggest differences between you going to Ohio State to 0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:50.320 a practice and getting ready for something on a daily 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:53.360 basis and coming into Davy. Yeah, so so how the 0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:55.600 state is Uh, you only get like an hour or 0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:58.960 two to do you know, football really outside of meetings 0:03:58.960 --> 0:04:01.360 and stuff. Like that. Um. Here now it's it's all 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:03.800 up to you. You. You can have six hours just 0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.240 to lay around. You can have two hours to you 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:09.000 know left in your day just to go to bed. Um. 0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:10.760 So he really is up to you. And I love 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:12.520 the free time of I'm not gonna sit here all 0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:14.320 day and just watch football and I don't have to 0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.400 wear about I got a class at three o'clock or 0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:18.680 something like that. So um, that's what makes it kind 0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:21.039 of you know fun. It's you really can just do 0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:22.760 football all day and if you really love football, this 0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:26.720 is this is the life. So uh oh yeah you 0:04:27.320 --> 0:04:30.599 got you got some. You don't come here as a stranger. Um. 0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:33.760 Ray Kwon McMillan coming back from his injury last year, 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:36.839 played with him two years ago to ohiuse state, Uh, 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:38.880 is there is there something between the two of you 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:43.040 that the familiarity of playing with Ray Kwan and those 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:45.600 types of things that you feel like you can carry forward. 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:47.760 And if you talk to him much since since you 0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:51.280 got drafted, Yeah, I pretty much talk to Kuan every day. Um. 0:04:51.400 --> 0:04:53.320 And it is one thing of you know, we familiar 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:55.440 each other, but I'm also familiar with his little you know, 0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:58.000 taxes is a little saying. So um, as far as like, 0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:00.599 on the any chance you get, I can people Tom 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:03.440 just only because he already been here. Um, he actually 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.000 never played yet, so we just kind of compete and 0:05:06.120 --> 0:05:08.559 to see we both technically our rookies, we never really played, 0:05:08.560 --> 0:05:10.760 so uh, you know it's a chance to see. I 0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:13.120 know him personally, So I'm gonna compete anyway I can 0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:15.680 to get him better, and he's definitely gonna do. Is 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:17.440 that the needle you used right off the bat? Hey man, 0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:22.160 you haven't played yet. I used any Joe I can. 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:25.760 Uh you know, he always have his little ways anywhere 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:28.320 I can push him his little needle. Anything I can do, 0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.679 I use it because uh, you know, he always always 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:33.920 act is that bigger brother. I'm that knowing a little brother. 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:36.360 I'm definitely gonna get him to the skin. So did 0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:39.000 you did you talk to him after he got hurt? Uh? 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:40.800 And he's going because that's a tough look. The same 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:42.120 thing happened to me in my rookie I blew my 0:05:42.200 --> 0:05:45.240 knee out and missed the whole season, very similar to him, 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:49.480 and that's a lonely situation. Um, did you have conversations 0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:51.240 with him after that? Guy? Yeah, So I talked to 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:54.080 him right after that. I talked him right after that, UM, 0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:56.200 talking him a little bit. I think about Kando, he's 0:05:56.320 --> 0:05:59.320 he's not no you know, down soaker and get in 0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:01.760 his feelings. When he came to that, he was like, 0:06:02.000 --> 0:06:04.320 I'm ready to get back to work. Um. So he 0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:06.680 took it full little head of steaming. You know, I 0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:09.440 really want to work on his knee. So Uh, if 0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:11.680 you know Kuan, you know that nothing's gonna stop him. 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:13.920 That was just a little obstacle. He got over and 0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:16.000 he's ready to show he got we We didn't know 0:06:16.040 --> 0:06:19.840 this about him, but his leadership this offseason. Uh, I 0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:21.880 mean since the end of the season. We came over 0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:25.400 here and he's taking this thing kind of over with guys. 0:06:25.480 --> 0:06:27.760 For a guy that hasn't played, you're surprised by his 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:30.080 leadership or was he that guy Ohio State? Not at all? 0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:33.799 That's that's been him. Uh. You know Coach Bush always 0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:36.040 said he's been a middle lineback his whole life, and 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:39.920 that's really him. It's no faking, it's nothing. Every day 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:42.800 he walks in, he's the leader. Uh. When we see 0:06:42.800 --> 0:06:44.800 a guy like that, it kind of expires you in 0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:47.080 a way. Of you know, I wanna lead to I 0:06:47.160 --> 0:06:51.080 wanna in a turn of it creates a nice competitive relationship. 0:06:51.160 --> 0:06:53.680 So that's that's how me and Kuana is. Is he 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.360 walking as a leader, But you know I'm gonna up 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:58.160 my game to get to his level, that's for sure. 0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:01.240 What's your goal come in as a rookie. What do 0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:03.120 you want to do? You know, your high draft choice. 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:05.599 A lot of things have been said about what you 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:08.320 can do on the football field. What in your mind, 0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:10.680 what do you want to get done in your rookie season. 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:12.520 I just want to get on that field and just 0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.239 show it I can do. Um I don't like limiting 0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:18.840 myself of being a starter or being a special teams guy. 0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:20.440 I just want to go in there and show my 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:23.240 my talents. Um Me, I can do anything up in 0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.760 my mindset, and my mind is to get on that 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:27.640 field and just show my you know, my play making 0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:31.240 ability to every every snap, every game. So that's all 0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:33.800 my goal is. I'm not worried about nothing else. Everything 0:07:33.800 --> 0:07:35.679 else is gonna come. Just go out there, make plays 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:37.880 and have fun and the rest of handle itself. Well, 0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:39.320 when you look at yourself, if you do a little 0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:41.760 self scouting about the type of player that you are. 0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:43.320 What what do you what do you feel like your 0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:45.840 strengths are, and what do you feel like you've got 0:07:45.840 --> 0:07:47.920 to work on to be the type of player that 0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:51.800 ultimately you want to be. Um my strengths. I can run, athletic, 0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:54.600 I can cover, I can do all those things. Uh, 0:07:54.640 --> 0:07:57.280 my weakness is what I really focused on. Um, the 0:07:57.360 --> 0:08:00.440 little things to me sometimes I can be going the 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:02.880 right way, but I don't take the right steps. Um 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:05.680 using my hand effectively. It's a lot of different things 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:08.440 I look on if Yeah, on TV, you don't notice it, 0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:12.280 but lineman, they can take advantage of you. So the 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.680 little things, of the little detail things what I really 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:17.440 trying to focus on. And just soaking up the playbook. 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:20.360 That's my weekends. No, I don't know this playbook. How 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:23.680 state I can tell you everybody positioning and their technique 0:08:23.720 --> 0:08:26.760 and everything. So that's our main focus knowledge is learn 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:28.920 the playbooks. And you learn the playbook, you know you're 0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:32.160 you're playing speeds up and that's what can you cover? 0:08:32.240 --> 0:08:36.000 Tight ends? I can carry anybody. Check that off. Well, 0:08:36.040 --> 0:08:38.040 there's a guy the reason both said that there's a 0:08:38.040 --> 0:08:41.400 guy named Gronkowski. Uh in New England, that you're you're 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:44.520 aware of, You've seen him play. It's gonna happen. At 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:47.280 some point, You're gonna be on them. You're gonna be covering. 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:48.839 You thought about that at all. I mean one of 0:08:48.880 --> 0:08:51.640 the reasons I think your hair is because grounds up 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:54.080 in New England and they need some mind backers can 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:57.240 run with with that big sign of a gun. Uh. 0:08:57.440 --> 0:09:00.400 One thing about him, I'm excited to it, you know, 0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:02.760 get the chance to play against them, But I'm not 0:09:02.800 --> 0:09:04.760 really focused on that right now. I'm worrying about this 0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:07.800 game better every day. Uh. I'm definitely gonna be excited 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:10.400 when that time come. And I you know, definitely learn 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:13.080 from different guys are different people. Uh. You know, I 0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:14.959 have the chance to work with Peper Johnson this summer, 0:09:15.480 --> 0:09:17.760 so you told me a little inside Scooper different things, 0:09:17.760 --> 0:09:20.040 So I'm excited to do that. Right now, I'm just 0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:22.840 worrying about, you know, learning what jet is and the 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:25.480 different defensively have now. So that chance is gonna come. 0:09:25.520 --> 0:09:29.320 But right now You're come in from Ohio State. Um, 0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:31.000 and I think when we look at this draft, and 0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:33.560 one of the things I really like about the draft Alabama, 0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:39.840 Ohio State, Notre Dame Arizona State, big programs, big games, 0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:42.880 big pressure that you guys have played in those types 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:45.000 of games. How does all that prepare you to come 0:09:45.040 --> 0:09:49.079 into this league and be the best you can be? Um, 0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:51.360 it brings something different. I think a lot of people 0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:54.079 who don't realize being all under that pressure. You kind 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:56.080 of get used to it so you really don't even 0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:58.959 focus on it. Uh Now, I know how it feels 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:02.720 to have a hundred the people playing cheering you on, 0:10:03.080 --> 0:10:04.760 So I don't really focus on that. You know how 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:07.960 to have a hundred thousand people when you and I 0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:10.959 don't even focus on it. It's kind of comes to territory. 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:13.959 It's definitely a blessing put our state. That definitely prepared me. 0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:16.439 But I already get that part. I'm not going to 0:10:16.520 --> 0:10:18.600 be nervous to go out and this is a lot 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.720 of people because you know how I State have great fans, 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:24.240 So it just kind of prepared you for a little 0:10:24.240 --> 0:10:26.360 bit about that aspect of it. So you know what, 0:10:26.440 --> 0:10:28.480 You've got thick skin too, because I can already tell 0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:33.559 guy being from Ohio State, from Cleveland having to northern California, 0:10:33.600 --> 0:10:36.680 Guys talking about Golden State and and take taking down 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:40.320 your Cleveland Cavaliers. What do you think about the Calves? Man? 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:42.560 I know it has to be this is this is 0:10:42.600 --> 0:10:45.400 what people don't realize. This is Lebron James, the greatest 0:10:45.400 --> 0:10:51.240 player that ever this earth. If I forgot the year 0:10:51.440 --> 0:10:53.800 when it was down three one to the Warriors, the 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:59.080 best team ever was at seventy three and nine. Yeah, 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:01.480 if I really hit that shot, You're right, people forget 0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:04.640 It's not about the series, but this whole season we've 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:07.680 been we had Lebron. So if you're going against Lebron, 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:16.800 I feel bad for you because he used to hey drown. 0:11:16.920 --> 0:11:19.240 The other thing is to um, you know, you're you're 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:22.360 kind of coming into kind of a Michigan family. You know, 0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:25.520 Stephen Ross, you you probably heard, you know, the relationship 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.239 a lot of a lot of Michigan people in the organization. 0:11:29.120 --> 0:11:33.640 You guys own them. What's that like? I mean, hardball 0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:37.280 still hasn't beating you guys. I was just telling Mike, um, 0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:39.840 I have no problem with the team of North. I 0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:42.360 never lost you guys, So what's the problem I don't 0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:44.439 have I don't have any memories of me being down 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:47.520 after the game. After every win, I was happy to 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:50.400 celebrate with my family and my friends and our team. 0:11:50.440 --> 0:11:52.240 So I have no problem. You know what. That's when 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.200 you start saying, well, you know, quite frankly, we wish 0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:57.240 we could scared you guys twice a year. How do 0:11:57.280 --> 0:12:06.480 you guys do it in September? Oh yeah, you got you. 0:12:06.600 --> 0:12:09.400 You've kind of gotten into the playbook. You've been going 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:13.160 through this whole um, you know, going through all the 0:12:13.200 --> 0:12:15.440 different aspects of this team and being a rookie and 0:12:15.440 --> 0:12:17.240 this and that. But when it comes down to playing 0:12:17.240 --> 0:12:21.160 football and getting ready to playbook? Um, how how soon 0:12:21.200 --> 0:12:23.079 do you think it's gonna take you to where you 0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:25.160 feel like you're up to speed and it's gonna be 0:12:25.640 --> 0:12:27.160 And what are you expecting when you step in on 0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:28.920 the field with it with the veteran guys, and then 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:31.120 you know, there's there's been conversation that I know you've 0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:33.480 been involved where hey, look, these guys are all rookies 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:34.679 coming in a lot of you veteran guys. They don't 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:36.640 don't care, they don't give a damn about you. You know, 0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:38.720 thinks my job, If you want my job, you're gonna 0:12:38.760 --> 0:12:40.080 have to work your ass off and then it's not 0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:42.160 gonna nothing gonna be given to you out there, and 0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:45.080 I respect that. I respect that totally. I remember being 0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:47.400 an older guy and young guy come in. I respect that. 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.760 But uh, you know you understand the concepts. That's that's 0:12:50.760 --> 0:12:53.080 what you catch up one but one thing by football, 0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:56.360 it's not setting stone, Um, what happens when that motion 0:12:56.400 --> 0:12:58.160 go across? What are you gonna do with? Are you're 0:12:58.160 --> 0:13:02.600 different checks? That's what I'm really focusing on the concepts 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:06.280 of cover three. You can't understand that pretty easily, but 0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:09.400 when things happen on the football field, that's when you start, 0:13:10.000 --> 0:13:12.280 you know, panicking. So that's what I'm really focused on now. 0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:15.000 To just watching old film is just all right, emotional, 0:13:15.080 --> 0:13:17.080 all right, check, what's check? What's so? Check? Um. So 0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:19.240 that's the things I'm going through now. And you really 0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:22.520 can't see how fast it goes until you're on the field. Uh, 0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:25.120 College it was fast, but you know NFL is definitely 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:27.920 a different speed at different um level. So that's what 0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:30.520 I'm really I got something really quick for you. You know, 0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:34.800 you spent the last couple of weeks with NFL coaches. 0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:38.760 You've got Frank Bush as your linebacker coach. You've got 0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:41.360 Matt Burke as your defensive coordinator. But you're coming from 0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:44.640 a place where you had a former NFL head coach 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.680 be your defensive coordinator and Greg Ciano. You've got a 0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:51.679 former position coach and coordinator defensive coordinator as your linebacker 0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:54.360 coach and Billy Davis. Do you feel like that's an 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:57.640 advantage for you coming from coaching like that at a 0:13:57.720 --> 0:14:00.600 high level, being able to step into an NFL walker 0:14:00.679 --> 0:14:03.040 room and maybe make it be a little bit seamless 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:06.440 for Yeah, it definitely helped. I remember coming in you know, 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:10.280 coach David. She came in around the springtime, uh, and 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:11.679 he asked me like, what do you have on this? 0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:14.760 I can tell him every single thing that I had, 0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:17.040 And he was like, okay, we'll do one favorite him. 0:14:17.040 --> 0:14:18.840 Get on the board and just tell him what everybody has. 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:21.600 I couldn't do it. It was one thing of he 0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:23.680 taught me. If of course you're gonna know what you have, 0:14:24.240 --> 0:14:26.200 but what do you know the guy behind you have? 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:28.800 What is his his things that he has to you know, 0:14:28.840 --> 0:14:31.640 struggle on. So if you don't wall this to receiver 0:14:32.600 --> 0:14:34.480 that she was gonna be on it. Yeah, so you 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:36.920 gotta understand of that of you know, I gotta do 0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:38.840 my technique because the guy behind me is, you know, 0:14:39.200 --> 0:14:42.680 depending on me. So uh that aspect of having NFL coaches, 0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:45.200 they kind of, you know, prepared me for this level already. 0:14:45.520 --> 0:14:48.200 So it's definitely been to help Coach Davis. I appreciate 0:14:48.280 --> 0:14:51.080 everything he did for me. Um, you know, Coachano did 0:14:51.120 --> 0:14:54.960 the same. Coach Marie, he's one of those coaches. He's, uh, 0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:57.560 once in a lifetime coach. You're never gonna get a 0:14:57.560 --> 0:15:00.320 guy that much experience. I'm a successed, So I really 0:15:00.320 --> 0:15:03.200 appreciate the whole program of House said, Hey, I want 0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:05.600 to ask you about the guy you're familiar with, the 0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:07.720 guy drafted it had to be on this team. What 0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:10.200 can you tell us about Mike A schicky? You can 0:15:10.280 --> 0:15:12.320 say whatever you want about Mike. He can't block, he 0:15:12.360 --> 0:15:14.720 can't do this, he can't do that. He can do it. Um, 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:17.200 that's simple, is that he can do it. The one 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:20.360 thing about him just being his locker is like right 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:24.160 next to mine, and he just goes to work. That's 0:15:24.200 --> 0:15:26.880 all he does. That's all he really do. Every year, 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:29.560 it was, Yeah, they have this receiver. He you know, 0:15:29.680 --> 0:15:32.880 his stance is funny, don't whatever. Every year he came 0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.280 out and bought so uh, you know, you can say 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:37.720 was one of about Mike, but he's a playmaker, and yeah, 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:40.080 it's definitely going. I'm glad he's on my team. Um, 0:15:40.200 --> 0:15:42.280 it's gonna definitely gonna be excited. All right, let me 0:15:42.360 --> 0:15:44.520 let me throw this your way because the guy we 0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:46.200 all know a couple of guys we all know, we 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:50.240 all know his dad, Um Joey Boza or Nick Bosa. 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:53.720 Which one is better? The Boa? Yeah, yeah, the Bosa. 0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:57.800 I'm taking the Bosa. I'm not. I'm not gonna fall 0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:00.480 from that because I want to thing about Nick can Joe. 0:16:00.920 --> 0:16:04.960 They are monsters, walk around like monsters, they play like monsters. 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:10.480 I remember fifth grade. You know their dad, their dad, John, 0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:12.240 who was the first round draft pick of the Miamid 0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:14.640 offense own the gym. I think those kids grew up. 0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:16.560 I think that I think when they were I think 0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:18.040 when they were about a year and a half years 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:19.800 old was the first time they did a bench press. 0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:22.400 Those guys been in the gym their whole and they're 0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:25.160 both just I mean, you're talking about splitting hairs with 0:16:25.200 --> 0:16:29.120 two really really good players that Ohio State eight years 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:31.960 of the Boss are six years. However long it's gonna be. 0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:33.680 Been pretty good. It's been pretty good time for the 0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:36.520 for the buck eyes up there. Definitely, when Nick walked 0:16:36.560 --> 0:16:38.480 in as a freshman, he did not look like a 0:16:38.520 --> 0:16:42.440 freshman at at all. And uh, one thing about him 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:44.080 you could tell he's been around football the whole life. 0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:46.680 And you start to learn different things about football that 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:50.120 she never really realized. Um. And you know, definitely take 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:52.560 care of your body. They both did a great job 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:55.560 of it in college. They played so many snaps. You know, 0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:58.960 remember the Penn State game with Joey. It was some 0:16:59.080 --> 0:17:02.640 people blocking him. He's still managed to get out of it. Um. 0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:04.840 So as far as that, you know, they are all 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:11.199 around just they're blessed. So when people ask which one pull, 0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:13.080 is pretty good. But I tell you what, those kids 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:17.200 they worked hard, man, Those guys that at the high 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:20.199 school level, I mean they were they they did their work. Man. 0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:23.760 They did nothing. Look, they've they've got good bloodlines, but uh, 0:17:23.840 --> 0:17:25.560 they're not gonna do anything if you didn't put in 0:17:25.560 --> 0:17:27.520 the work. And those guys certainly put in the world. Definitely, 0:17:27.600 --> 0:17:29.920 Nick came in working. Joey as soon as I walked 0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:31.919 in the door, he was working. No matter how much 0:17:31.920 --> 0:17:33.960 praise they get, no matter what they's gonna be in 0:17:34.000 --> 0:17:36.359 the in the way room, working out. Everybody's gone, He's 0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:38.840 still there. Um. So you know they came from a 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:41.520 great program. Even they was done at St. Thomas Aquinas. 0:17:41.840 --> 0:17:45.159 I actually looked up Nick and you know see how 0:17:45.200 --> 0:17:47.480 good he was. And it don't matter how many things 0:17:48.000 --> 0:17:51.920 um accolades he gets. He just goes to working and 0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:55.200 I love him for that. Sounds definitely good. Hey, Uh, 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:59.720 you know the one thing that the Dolphins organization really 0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:02.240 since since back when we were here and even before, 0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:04.800 I've been real big about community outreach, going out and 0:18:04.800 --> 0:18:06.760 you got involved with some of that. You went to 0:18:06.760 --> 0:18:09.399 the United Way, y did some stuff out there or 0:18:09.440 --> 0:18:10.919 those are things you like to do or those things 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:12.800 you want to do more of it while while you're 0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:15.520 here with this organization. Yeah, that's one thing I really 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:18.800 prided myself on. People. I wish if you get um. 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:22.080 When I was at elementary school, Uh, in high school, 0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:25.239 I started own or organization. I was a part of it. 0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:28.000 Well man, it was all about domestic violence. You know, 0:18:28.080 --> 0:18:30.680 got to our state time difference A little bit is 0:18:30.720 --> 0:18:33.240 off chrack, but um, just to see you know, coming 0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:35.520 as a rookie and the organization is probably the sself 0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:37.960 on that. You know, it really helps me. And you 0:18:38.000 --> 0:18:40.639 have all the playbook and you have all the different 0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:43.080 things thrown at you. Just to see those kids faces 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:45.640 kind of you know, bring you back the earth. Yeah, 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:47.280
