27
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 4: that wasn't the full team was it? Because I feel

28
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 4: like we have a lot more players than that.

29
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 5: I still haven't seen like the big offensive line group

30
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 5: like jag Or Burton and those guys have not come

31
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:29,399

00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 6: Yeah. I don't know who these people are.

33
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 7: Maybe those the team photo though they wouldn't do it

34
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 7: without their offensive line.

35
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's only like five rows of people, isn't it

36
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,680
Speaker 4: usually go up like twenty? I wouldn't pen that close

37
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 4: to Okay, Well.

38
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 6: Anyway, Yes, So we've had fun here first hour, a lot.

39
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 4: Going on, a lot of news made, and now we

40
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 4: are we'll kind of wait for the players and everybody here.

41
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 4: Let me ask you now, you you were already on

42
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 4: the ship before all of this.

43
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 6: Are you more on the ship?

44
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 5: And now absolutely every time I hear Mark Stoops talk

45
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 5: get I get more and more sucked in. I mean,

46
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna lie. I mean a couple months ago

47
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 5: I was thinking they're gonna struggle to get four wins.

48
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 5: Now I'm almost up to Shannon Mall. Why can't they

49
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 5: put together?

50
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 6: You're gonna have a good team.

51
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 5: By the time of kickoff, I'll be going eight and four.

52
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm sure I enjoyed the interview.

53
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 8: It didn't change any well.

54
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 7: I mean, I've already bet over four and a half,

55
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 7: so it's not like I'm yeah naysayer over here.

56
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 8: But those two conversations didn't have me ready to run

57
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 8: through a wall.

58
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 7: I enjoyed them, but I'm still right where I was

59
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 7: as far as my expectations for wins.

60
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 8: But I did like them clearing up a lot of things.

61
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, I did too. I think I like I do.

62
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 4: One of the things I like about Mark is that he

63
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 4: wears his emotions honestly.

64
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 5: Yes, he does, for good or bad.

65
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 4: As someone over the years who has been the recipient

66
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 4: of happy, sad, and mad phone calls from him, I

67
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 4: know his emotions pretty well. I actually don't know him

68
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 4: really well, but I know his emotions and I can tell,

69
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 4: generally speaking, when I think he's in a good frame

70
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 4: of mind and when he's not. And he is in

71
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 4: a good frame of mine, he looks good. He's lost weight,

72
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 4: he looked happy. He had that you know you we've

73
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 4: done interviews with him. We know, we know you can

74
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 4: tell when he walks up here, like you know what

75
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 4: I mean, you can tell what where he is.

76
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 6: And I thought that was that was very good.

77
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 5: You were dead on when you said you just look

78
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 5: like you're a different person like the guy you used

79
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 5: to be. And you remember he did a gear you

80
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 5: with his one time here at media day. We lean

81
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 5: back and put his feet up on the table. I

82
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 5: feel like he's getting close to that guy.

83
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 3: I mean when he came in.

84
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 4: I'm glad he came in during the spring, but he

85
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 4: was very defensive and it was clear very he was

86
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 4: he was and that wasn't the same guy here, right,

87
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 4: I mean, I think that was much more what we're

88
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 4: used to when things have been good with Mark. Right, yes,

89
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 4: so all right, so now we have my goodness, Yeah,

135
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,760
Speaker 4: that I thought was fascinating. I think that's probably the

136
00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 4: easiest way for you to start. Just tell me about

137
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,400
Speaker 4: your background, where you grew up all that.

138
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 10: Okay, Well, I'm originally from Montana, grew up there. I'm

139
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 10: in a military family, so that had to move around.

140
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 10: It ended up getting stationed in Colorado, Fort Carson, spent

141
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 10: some time there, and you know, eventually, you know, worked

142
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 10: my way down to New Mexico into the Navajo Nation

143
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,520
Speaker 10: and went to high school there. Did did football there.

144
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,840
Speaker 4: When you say Navajo Nation like that on a reservation.

145
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 4: So you played football in a reservation in New Mexico.

146
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, yes, And.

147
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 4: Tell me about what life is like there. A lot

148
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 4: of people listening would would have no idea.

149
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 10: Well, it's it's a very it's humble beginnings. I'll tell

150
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 10: you that it's a very small town and I played

151
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 10: I played football there for two years. Not a lot

152
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 10: of exposure there, not a lot of I guess media

153
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 10: attention or whatnot. Very small football. And there were times

154
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 10: where I only had to play We only played with

155
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 10: eleven guys. I had to play both sides, So I mean,

156
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 10: football wise, you know that happened. But you know, I

157
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 10: enjoyed the school if anything, you know, being around the

158
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 10: teacher and how many people were in your school six

159
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 10: hundred when I first got there.

160
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 6: All Navajo Navajo majority.

161
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 9: Yeah.

162
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 6: Yeah.

163
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 10: I did all sorts of sports there. I did cross

164
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 10: country for a bit.

165
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 3: You did cross country?

166
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 10: Yeah, okay, yeah, country nice.

167
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 6: I guess everybody plays most things right.

168
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 9: Into shape there.

169
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 10: But within the Navo nation, it's a lot of rural communities,

170
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 10: you know, spread out throughout, so the commuting is a big,

171
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 10: big part of it. You got to drive a long

172
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 10: ways to see to see family, to get groceries.

173
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 6: So but but that wasn't where you were when you

174
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 6: were a little kid.

175
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 3: So what was it?

176
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 6: But that feels like that would have been a big change.

177
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 6: Was it?

178
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 9: Big change? Big change?

179
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 6: Culture shock?

180
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 9: Of course?

181
00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 6: What was the culture shock? Tell me about it?

182
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 10: Okay, Well, coming from Montana, I was I was within

183
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 10: the Salish community, that tribe of people there, and those

184
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 10: individuals moved differently, communicate differently, of course. Or is that's

185
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 10: their community. You come out of that community, you go

186
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 10: on to a military base, per se, it's entirely different.

187
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,640
Speaker 10: People are more there's a lot more structure and people

188
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 10: are it's more militant, I could say that.

189
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 6: So it makes sense.

190
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 10: Then you go from being one of the only Native

191
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 10: American people in Colorado to being surrounded by a bunch

192
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 10: of you know, being back in in your community, the

193
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 10: community that my mother is from.

194
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 3: Did you enjoy that?

195
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 6: Yeah?

196
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 9: A good change.

197
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 10: It's perspective, right, I didn't know it at the time,

198
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 10: you know, being in it, but you know out looking

199
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 10: back in my life.

200
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, and now you're in Lexington. What what what is

201
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:41,880
Speaker 3: that like?

202
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 6: Been like? It's fun?

203
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 10: Different again, another another angle to look at life from.

204
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 4: Now you've played not against SEC football, you all beat

205
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 4: Auburn with this year, right, we marched in there.

206
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 6: So tell me what that was like.

207
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 4: I mean I remember like a Mexic Coast state goes

208
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,080
Speaker 4: into Auburn and when that had to be unbelievable.

209
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 10: Man, it felt so good to be an Aggie that day,

210
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 10: to wear Crimson, to to have our entire team rally

211
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,160
Speaker 10: together and just I mean just stare down at our

212
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 10: opponent like that. There were times, man, like the stadium.

213
00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,680
Speaker 10: I mean it was one of the first SEC games

214
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 10: I'd ever really been a part of. So like the fireworks,

215
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 10: the roar of the crown, I mean, it was captivating.

216
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 10: But we were we were so focused on our objective.

217
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 10: Their coach kill, our head coach at the time, got us,

218
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 10: got us going. You know, Coach Mitchell, my former offensive

219
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,080
Speaker 10: line coach, you know, rallied us together. He kept the objective,

220
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,600
Speaker 10: the objective and.

221
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 3: Did you play with diego?

222
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 11: Right?

223
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 6: Yea.

224
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 3: So now you gotta beat him this year though, right, Like,

225
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:45,599
Speaker 3: I mean you can't. You can't. Now you're gonna be

226
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 3: playing against him.

227
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,079
Speaker 4: I mean you're not gonna be going up against him,

228
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 4: but you gotta, like you used to protect team, now

229
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 4: you gotta make sure we get out him.

230
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 6: Right. Yeah, that's it's beat us last year. Can't let

231
00:09:58,960 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 6: that happen again.

232
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 4: Standing there, I love it, and we go to Aubert again.

233
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:06,800
Speaker 4: So you're gonna get another chance at that?

234
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, Yeah, a huge opportunity with this new group of

235
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 10: guys here too, so I'm looking forward to it.

236
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 4: Did you, I mean, did you ever dream you would

237
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 4: get a chance to play football at an SEC school?

238
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 10: I mean, you know, if I were to tell myself

239
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 10: at a younger age that I'm doing this, I don't

240
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 10: think I'd believe myself. So it's incredibly fulfilling. I'm extremely

241
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 10: grateful and I'm cherishing each and every single day, an hour,

242
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 10: every interaction I have like this one. So I'm extremely grateful.

243
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 10: That's awesome.

244
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 4: Mark Stoops was saying when he was here a minute ago,

245
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,440
Speaker 4: he looked at me and said, you would really like him.

246
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 4: He's a dude who's very like he thinks deeply.

247
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 3: Would you agree about that about yourself?

248
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 10: Yeah, I try to see like I always remain curious

249
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 10: about you know, people, opinions, life events.

250
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 9: You know, it helps me.

251
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 3: What are your interests like away from football?

252
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 10: My interests away from football? Well, I like history. I

253
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 10: like reading about the past. It helps me determine the future.

254
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 10: But you know, it gets a bit confusing, so I

255
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 10: try my best to say in the present.

256
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 6: What are your favorite parts of history?

257
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 4: Let's it like, if I were to if you were

258
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 4: to sit there and listen read a history book or

259
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 4: listen to a history podcast.

260
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 6: What are you choosing?

261
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 4: I'm listening right now about the Mehica in Quartes in

262
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 4: fifteen nineteen and all that I've been listening to a podcast.

263
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 3: What do you listen to during those Well.

264
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,719
Speaker 10: I was for a bit of time reading about Napoleon.

265
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 10: I watched some videos about some of his recent battles,

266
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,680
Speaker 10: some of them within the Middle East, some of other

267
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 10: like ancient battles or whatnot. Just seeing how these leaders

268
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 10: command and maneuver their troops. It's pretty cool. And now

269
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,679
Speaker 10: you are the head of one of the members.

270
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 4: But I think most people think gonna be the core

271
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,560
Speaker 4: strength of this offensive line. That was a weakness on

272
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 4: this team last year. What do you think it's gonna

273
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:09,559
Speaker 4: be like this year? New set of guys for the

274
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 4: most part except Jagger.

275
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,679
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, Jagger's done a done a good job,

276
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 10: you know, getting us together, you know, keeping our objective

277
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 10: the objective. We got a lot of you guys, uh

366
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 13: shot out the league or if I wanted to come

367
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,760

368
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 13: want to come back to school, Uh, Kentucky really stood

369
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 13: out to me. You know, being back in the SEC

370
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 13: is something that I've wanted for a long time. I've

371
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 13: been eager to get back. And you know, just meeting

372
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 13: with coach Bush and coach Stoops and you know, getting

373
00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 13: a good feel for their mentality and how they feel

374
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 13: going into the season. And you know, coach Bush does

375
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 13: a really good job with the offense. He's a great mind,

376
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 13: and we've got some good weapons. So everything felt good

377
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 13: about it.

378
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 4: You've been You've played on a number of different levels,

379
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 4: so you know, when you have a team that you know,

380
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,840
Speaker 4: very talented, when when something's missing, how do you feel

381
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 4: about this group?

382
00:16:40,800 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 13: I feel really good about it from talent perspective. You know,

383
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 13: we're in a really, really good spot and I think

384
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 13: even more importantly from a mentality perspective, where we're in

385
00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 13: a we're in a great spot. I think, you know,

386
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,160

387

Speaker 13: could text them.

388
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 4: What do you mean mentality? Because that was an issue

389
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 4: for this program for the last couple of years. What

390
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 4: makes this this good?

391
00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 9: Right?

392
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 13: It's it's just been everybody's approach for me. You know,

393
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 13: skilled guys. You know, I text them on a Sunday,

394
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 13: We're gonna throw in an hour and I got you know,

395
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 13: ten eleven, twelve guys out there ready to work, running

396
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 13: full speed. You know, our offensive line, you know, we'll

397
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 13: be in lyfts sometimes and you know you can see

398
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 13: you can see him out there in the sand doing

399
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 13: getting extra work, and they're the last group to leave.

400
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 13: And our running backs too, I think dal Dell in

401
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 13: the addition of Seth and those other guys, Will Cox

402
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 13: and JP, you know, they do a really really good job.

403
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 3: Do you.

00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 4: I mean you played at a and M You played

405
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,679
Speaker 4: at AUBURNS, so you've played in the SEC. Does this

406
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,680
Speaker 4: team have the makeup to be competitive.

407
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:38,520
Speaker 6: In the lead?

00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 13: And now it's just a matter of putting our best

413
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 13: foot forward every day. I think, you know, offensively, we've

414
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,440
Speaker 13: had a really good start to camp, but we got

415
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 13: to keep stacking, we got to keep improving. We know

416
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,120
Speaker 13: it's gonna be a long, tough season with some tough opponents,

417
00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:57,120
Speaker 13: but you know we're built for it and we're getting

418
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 13: ready for.

419
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:58,920

00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 4: you've been on different levels. You're you're doing Auburn, you're

422
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 4: doing A and M, you're doing that, and then you

423
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,920
Speaker 4: end up an incarnate word, which is a completely different thing.

424
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 4: Tell me about what that transition is like, how do

425
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 4: you get yourself because it's a completely different it's like

426
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 4: a different sport in some ways.

427
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 9: Yeah, it was. It was awesome.

428
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 13: I think you know, I've said it was a blessing

429
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 13: that I that I needed more than I knew. And

430
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 13: you know, getting there and looking around at you know

431
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 13: the facilities and the you know, the three four hundred

432
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 13: person stadium, it was different. It was a lot different,

433
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 13: but you know, it was kind of it was a

434
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 13: great reset for me, you know, coming off of you know,

435
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 13: being out for a year.

436
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:36,560
Speaker 3: To humble you a little bit.

437
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 13: Oh, absolutely absolutely, And you know, I think it's funny

438
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 13: I tell people we had a home we had a

439
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 13: home field advantage because it felt like a scrimmage, you know.

440
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 9: You had a hundred up. It was. It was parents

441
00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 9: and friends in the crowd.

442
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,399
Speaker 13: But you know, I think as a team we embraced that,

443
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,439
Speaker 13: and as a player I embraced that, and you know,

444
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 13: just didn't have the facilities, we didn't have the resources,

445
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 13: but it was just all about football.

446
00:18:57,760 --> 00:18:57,959
Speaker 9: You know.

447
00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 13: We said, you know, everybody on this team two things.

448
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,879
Speaker 13: Everybody's been told no and everybody loves football, and we

449
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 13: embraced that.

450
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 4: Forgive me forget is it Cam Cam or who was

00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 13: tell myself, like, look, this is another game.

474
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 9: I have to prepare for this game.

475
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 13: And I think the way I approach every other game,

476
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 13: you know, with with the mentality that I have, I

477
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 13: think it's going to be the same. There's going to

478
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 13: be that part of me that you know, it's Augurn,

479
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,120
Speaker 13: it's my old school. But at the end of the day,

480
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 13: it's a football team. And you know, as somebody that

481
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 13: a lot of these guys look to, I got to

482
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 13: treat it the same and and go in the game.

483
00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:16,719
Speaker 3: What you know, what what's the are you?

484
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 6: Are you consider yourself a leader?

485
00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 3: Like?

486
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 6: Are you? Do you? Because there's so many guys I mean,

487
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,479
Speaker 6: what was he said, what was it? Fifty?

488
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 4: You know the pate said Pete, he said, what was

489
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 4: the name of all nations?

490
00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 6: What was it?

491
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 4: The phrase beasts? Like, there's fifty different new players. How

492
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,000
Speaker 4: do you make a leadership role with that?

493
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 9: Right?

494
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 13: I mean, I think for me coming in, I just

495
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 13: wanted to be the best teammate I could be and

496
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,720
Speaker 13: be somebody that could be trusted. And you know that

497
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 13: that's something that I think has to be established first

498
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 13: before your voice has any weight to it. So, you know,

499
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,959
Speaker 13: in the spring January, just wanted to be some somebody

500
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,440
Speaker 13: that you know is here doing doing what I need

501
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 13: to do. Somebody that the teammates know I can they

502
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 13: can count on, and you know, as as we get

503
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 13: rolling in the camp, just somebody who's whose voice And

504
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:04,439
Speaker 13: that comes from a lot of conversations with you know,

505
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 13: a lot of the other leaders on the team and

506
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 13: just making sure that you know, we're all on the

507
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:10,040
Speaker 13: same page and we're moving in the right direction.

508
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,159
Speaker 6: What what do you do off the field?

509
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 3: Like, what are your interests away from football?

510
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:14,679
Speaker 14: Well?

511
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 13: Shootas I've been in Kentucky, Uh, I joke with people,

512
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 13: I'm either in my apartment or I'm at the facility.

513
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 6: Okay, Well we got to get you out. Well actually

514
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 6: after this, I mean, I've dabbled.

515
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 9: I've dabbled.

516
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 13: I went to Keenland, you know, I've I've gotten to

517
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,720

518
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,440
Speaker 6: You're you're here for in some ways, here for business, right?

519
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,120
Speaker 9: Oh? Absolutely, I know.

520
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 13: I mean at the end of the day, it's one

521
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 13: and done for me and that and that's how I'm

522
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 13: treating it.

523
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:40,399
Speaker 6: Do you?

524
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 13: Uh?

525
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,479
Speaker 4: And you still obviously have goals and aspirations of the

526
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 4: next level. What's it like working with Mark Stoops and

527
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 4: Bush every week?

528
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:48,760
Speaker 9: Oh? It's awesome.

529
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 13: I mean they were a big reason that I came here,

530
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 13: conversations that I had with them. So just to be

531
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 13: around those those coaches and and be with guys with

532
00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 13: the same mentality as me, and and just keep preparing

533
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,120
Speaker 13: and and whatever we can do every day to get

534
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 13: better and get ready for this.

535
00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 4: Have you gotten a feel yet for how much we

536
00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 4: hate Louisville, Tennessee?

537
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 6: And you've gotten that yet?

538
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 9: I was seen it around a little bit.

539
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,840
Speaker 13: I was, man, I was at a restaurant the other

540
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 13: day and they had a like some Louisville volleyball game

541
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 13: on or something.

542
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 9: I was like, why do we have that on the TV?

543
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:21,199
Speaker 6: Did you demand they turn it?

544
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 9: All?

545
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 13: Like why is this on the TV? They would change

546
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,679
Speaker 13: the channel. So that was funny. But yeah, no, absolutely,

547

Speaker 9: It's all.

549
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 4: Give me a player. I always think players know this

550
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 4: better than anybody. Give me a player that maybe the

551
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,200

Speaker 14: I think putting South Africa on the map is a

605
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 14: punter would be amazing. I don't know if it's been done.

606
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 14: I know their few Division one South African players d lineman,

607
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,479
Speaker 14: offensive linemen that have gone through and played in the NFL.

608
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 11: But I'd like to be a punch.

609
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 4: Well, tell me about your I mean, how did you

610
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 4: end up playing college football? Because you're right, I don't

611
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 4: know of any other South African player.

612
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 6: Yeah.

613
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:08,440
Speaker 14: So my family moved to Chapelhill, North Carolina in twenty seventeen.

614
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,440
Speaker 14: So through high school and I joined the football team

615
00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 14: to make friends. I played rugby and rugby was my

616
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 14: main sport. I wanted to play for the USA Eagles

617
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 14: and I had a coach in high school that punted

618
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 14: a little bit in the NFL and took me under

619
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:25,280
Speaker 14: this wing. And because of COVID and how it worked out,

620
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,400
Speaker 14: I didn't get recruited, but he knew somebody at UNC

621
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 14: Charlotte that pretty much gave me a true walk on spot.

622
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 14: First day of practice, didn't even go to full camp,

623
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 14: and I kind of made my way up.

624
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 3: I believe, am I right?

625
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 4: Wasn't there a Kentucky guy that was an assistant or

626
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 4: a volunteer assistant at UNC Charlotte. He was Max's friend.

627
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 4: I can't remember which player it was, do you remember?

628
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,119
Speaker 4: But we had their guy for there for a year

629
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,359
Speaker 4: or two. But then you went from Charlotte to U T.

630
00:25:47,520 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 6: Martin. Is that right? Yes?

631
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:51,439
Speaker 14: So I walked on to Charlotte, did the kickoff for

632
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 14: my second year, had some good film being the backup

633
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,400
Speaker 14: field goal kick and backup punter, and at that time

634
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 14: I was actually more of a field goal kicker. Got

635
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 14: the scholarship to U T. Monito, do all three and

636
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 14: the rest is history. I gotta didn't do as well

637
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 14: as I wanted on field thoals, it excelled at punts,

638
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:07,800
Speaker 14: so I took that under my wing, and I was

639
00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:08,359

660
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,320

672
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 4: or you can hike it.

673
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,440

726
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 14: we've come along together really quickly.

727
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,600

729
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 14: Yeah, Yeah, of course there's obviously a difference. Look, last

730
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,560
Speaker 14: year's passed, But I mean, I think this year we've

731
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 14: got a tight group of guys that are all together.

732
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 11: In the same mission. We know.

733
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 14: We know last year didn't go well. The guys who

734
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 14: weren't there don't care. We like the people who are

735
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 14: there who were there. It's over us, so we're all

736
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:50,840
Speaker 14: together on this.

737
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 5: You were on here earlier talking about your toughness rating. Yeah,

738
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,160
Speaker 5: you said you're a former rugby player, you thought that

739
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,520
Speaker 5: was a little kind of disrespectful that happen.

740
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 4: Have you Has anyone from EA reached out and said

741
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 4: it was a mistake or anything, because there's no way,

742
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 4: first of all, you could beat me up. There's no

743
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 4: way that you have a zero toughness rating.

744
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 14: Yeah, I don't know. We I obviously grew up. Like

745
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 14: I said, a South African rugby player doesn't often get

746
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 14: told that they're not tough. I haven't heard that one before.

747
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 14: But yeah, I don't think if they want to change it,

748
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 14: I hope it's higher. I don't want to if they

749
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 14: put it to fifty or sixty, I don't think that's

750
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:26,320
Speaker 14: almost worse.

751
00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 11: Well, they'll just be zero, you know.

752
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, but it did get you a lot of attention.

753
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 4: I mean, we're friends with the guys on.

754
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,240
Speaker 6: Pardon my take, they talked about you.

755
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 4: I mean, is there part of you that's like, hey,

756
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 4: I'm the zero toughness guy.

757
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 6: Let's go.

758
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 14: I've obviously taken it. You know, it's any publicity is good.

759
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 14: Obviously I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the

760
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,840
Speaker 14: zero toughness. So yeah, I think it's it's.

761
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 6: Why you would have been here because I had to

762
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 6: learn about South right.

763
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 4: To be honest with you, I mean I'm because I'm

764
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 4: excited about it, but it also will mean as the

765
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 4: year goes on, you're gonna get attention.

766
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 3: Like it is. I think it actually is going to

767
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,480
Speaker 3: be kind of a blessing in disguise for you.

768
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 14: Definitely, I think people aren't going to be going to

769
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 14: the bathrooms on fourth down as much.

770
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 9: It's good, it'll be good.

771
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 5: You gotta just declete somebody one time.

772
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 4: Oh you do have to, Well, they'll get a penalty,

773
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 4: but otherwise you gotta you gotta show it at a point.

774
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 14: But obviously if it comes down to it, I'll do it.

775
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 14: But obviously as a good punt that doesn't want to

776
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 14: have to make a tackle. You know, that's exactly right. Well, uh,

777
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 14: I appreciate. What's your been your favorite thing about being

Speaker 6: Say to you. When you said you had a conversation, I.

875
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:54,400
Speaker 15: Think it was just like we just laid it all

876
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 15: out on the table and how things went. And you know,

877
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,359
Speaker 15: they were sorry for their faults and I a, of course,

878
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,839
Speaker 15: uh claim my foss as well. You started to get

879
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 15: the ball more as the year went on. Uh oh yeah, definitely, uhud.

880
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 15: The target started to come, so I started to make them.

881
00:35:08,520 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 15: You know, I say, I just have to be ready,

882
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,319
Speaker 15: you know what I'm saying, and not shrinkle down and

883
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:12,480
Speaker 15: just you know, be all in my head.

884
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 4: I have to keep working in There's been been a

885
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:18,719
Speaker 4: big conversation over the off season about the transition you know,

886
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,399
Speaker 4: I mean in the culture of the program from last

887
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 4: year to this year. You don't have to worry about

888
00:35:23,680 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 4: going over everything last year. But what do you think

889
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,760
Speaker 4: are the big differences that have improved around here? Because

890
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 4: we keep hearing culture better, culture better.

891
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 15: I think the intentionality of all the guys, man. I

892
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 15: think everybody's very intentional on what we need to get done. Nobody's,

893
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 15: like I heard, just being selfish thinking about themselves. I

894
00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,480
Speaker 15: think everybody's just connected very well and just wanted to

895
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,400
Speaker 15: run through a big wall of the coaches in Kentucky.

896
00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,799
Speaker 4: That's important though, and especially in a locker room this

897
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,240
Speaker 4: big because it because you know, when John cal Perry

898
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 4: was here, he would say, one knucklehead is okay, but

899
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 4: if you have two, it can ruin the it can

900
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,960
Speaker 4: ruin the team. In football, you got you have to

901
00:35:57,960 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 4: be careful about.

902
00:35:58,640 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 3: That, you really do, man.

903
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:01,360
Speaker 15: So I think that we need to we continue to

904
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 15: have conversations about that, just making sure everybody's on the

905
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:05,839
Speaker 15: same page, man, and just just continue to work.

906
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:06,919
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, Go in and work.

907
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 4: So tell me about the room. There a lot of

908
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 4: new guys, a lot of young talent. But I know

909
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,080
Speaker 4: what I'm gonna get from you. So what am I

910
00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:15,399
Speaker 4: gonna get from the rest of these guys?

911
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 6: Man?

912
00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 15: They bought them boys, all of them nice, all the

913
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,800
Speaker 15: young guys, even the guys that we had transferred the

914
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 15: man Troy setlto Kendrick Laud, those guys Man and JJ

915
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 15: Hester and a bunch of those young guys. Man, they

916
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 15: are plug and play guys, so they can plug and

917
00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 15: play at any position.

918
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 3: They bring a lot of juice to the team.

919
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 4: And Mark was saying, you know, look, I got eight

920
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 4: or nine guys that could play. It's gonna be a

921
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 4: big competition throughout camp. Do you agree with that? I

922
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,680
Speaker 4: definitely will, definitely would, And a lot of guys understand

923
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 4: that too. So they just got to go out there

924
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,600
Speaker 4: approach like that, trying to win a starting job. That's

925
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 4: just how to how football is his competition. You know,

926
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 4: Zach kl Zada, you know been through the Wars. You

927
00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,239
Speaker 4: receivers only as good as his quarterback. So what do

928
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:54,439
Speaker 4: you what are you seeing with him?

929
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:54,719
Speaker 12: Man?

930
00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:56,279
Speaker 15: I've been connected with him very well over the past

931
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 15: couple days of camping throughout summer.

932
00:36:57,719 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 3: OTA's as well.

933
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,040
Speaker 15: Man, he's been doing a really good job of just

934
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 15: you know, being patient with me and all the other receivers.

935
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 15: And we've been patient with him because the connection takes time.

936
00:37:05,440 --> 00:37:07,879
Speaker 4: He said, you, he said, he'll call you guys and say, hey,

937
00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,800
