And 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,400 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not too worried about my hair. Um 4 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: if you know, if they want to cut it, then 5 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:14,320 Speaker 1: they could have it. I'm just trying to be a 6 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,320 Speaker 1: better teammate and a better football player every day. That's 7 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: this first experience of training campaign. Um, it's been an 8 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: experience for sure. Like anything else, it's uh, you know, 9 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 1: you put yourself in a new environments and uh you know, 10 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: that's when you grow. And I'm having to do different 11 00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:30,319 Speaker 1: techniques and I did in college, which is you know, 12 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: you could just see that out on the field. M 13 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: But luckily for me, you know, I got at great 14 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 1: coaching staff and a lot of great teammates and in 15 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,720 Speaker 1: great role models to look after and model my game 16 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: after and to uh you know, pick their brain. And 17 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 1: uh so I'm in a great position. I think you're 18 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: certain Pennsylvanian kid, right yep? So can we assume you're 19 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,239 Speaker 1: a Steelers fan? Um at this point in time, you know, 20 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: I'm a Patriots fan, and uh so go Pats. Are 21 00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 1: they giving you a homework of players to watch la 22 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: positions here in the past. Um, I don't know if 23 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: about homework and uh at this point in time, you know, 24 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: I'm we watch a lot of film on a lot 25 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: of different people and so specifics. You know, I can't 26 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: really think of mine or any on the top of 27 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: my head. I just uh, I'm just trying to be 28 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 1: a you know, the best version of myself. Jase. You 29 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: mentioned working through some new techniques. It looks like Bill 30 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 1: with hands on with you over here. He worked with 31 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: the tight ends. It wasn't mean to have that coach 32 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: and struck. Can you be Bill Belichick and they'll be 33 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: along with those things? I mean, it means the world. 34 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,479 Speaker 1: He's coached every position, He's it's one of the greatest 35 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 1: coaches of all time. Um. You know, I'm very fortunate 36 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: to come out and it's it's not just him, it's 37 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: you know, all around coaching staff, and there's expertise and 38 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,839 Speaker 1: opportunities to get better every single day. Um. And that's 39 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: what's great about you know, every day you wake up 40 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: and um, it's a fresh day and you get to 41 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: come out here and just get a little bit better, 42 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 1: a little bit better, be a better teammate, you know, 43 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: be a better mentally, physically, um, just across the board. So, um, yeah, 44 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: it's great, Chase. What time does the day start and 45 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: when does it end? And how much longer is it 46 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: then your college experience? Um, you know I'm not responsible 47 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: for talking about schedules. That's got to talk to coach 48 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 1: Belichick or uh or Chris on that one. Um. But 49 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: the days are long, and you know the days are 50 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: are hard, and um, that's what it's for, you know, 51 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: get you it's just football this Uh, football games are 52 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: sometimes very long. You know, you got overtime and you 53 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: know they're um, they're not the easiest things to do. 54 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,079 Speaker 1: Go you know it, go smash your your body to 55 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: another human being. So um, you know it's all for 56 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: prepared for that and uh you know it's it's fun. Yeah. 57 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: Every day you just get you know, it's it comes 58 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: back to you just a little bit more, you know 59 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: that physicality that Um. So yeah, it's it's set up 60 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: in a great way. M much of you leaned of it? Guy? 61 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,399 Speaker 1: What's up? How much have you leaned on the veterans 62 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: for you know, advice or you know, just anything. Yeah, 63 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: I've leaned on the veterans every single day. Um, every 64 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: time I'm out here in the you know, in the 65 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: meeting rooms, I'm always ticking. They're prying on different techniques 66 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: and I'm out here and I'm I'm trying to learn 67 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: them to fly. It's um, and they've got great expertise. 68 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: A lot of them are veteran guys that are you know, 69 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: very smart players. UM, and they're all you know, willing 70 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: to help and um across the board offense, defense, you know, 71 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: special teams. Just a whole bunch of of great teammates 72 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: and great leaders, UM and great coaches. So an immediate 73 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: comfort level to be able to go to them. Were 74 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: they um, yeah, they they've definitely uh definitely offered their 75 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 1: advice and UM, you know, they've welcomed the very openly. UM. 76 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: It was never like, you know, one of those things 77 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: where it's like a competition thing. It's it's really never 78 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: felt like that. It's it's more been uh, you know, 79 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: we're a team here. We're all going to try to 80 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: build each other up. UM. So the coach Hardball used 81 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: to always say, you know, rising tight um raises all ships. 82 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: And you know they were everybody's trying to get better 83 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: out here, and so I thank them for that. Have 84 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: you and Brady been able to reminisce about the Michigan 85 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 1: days yet. Uh. Yeah, we we've messed around a lot 86 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: about Michigan days and stuff and um but really it's 87 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: it's we're focused on football and what we could do, 88 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: uh to better the team now and you know, the 89 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: past is in the past. Um, We're just focused on 90 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: what we could do today, tomorrow, and uh, just trying 91 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: to be better every single day. That's That's the most 92 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: typical conversation i'd say we have. I think people talk 93 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 1: about you, they always talk about high motive. Have you 94 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: always had that high motive? Um, yeah, I've always I've 95 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 1: always been a a pretty big cardio guy. That's say 96 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: I've I've I've loved running and I've loved just flying 97 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: all over the field and hitting people. Um. So yeah, 98 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: I think that's a decent characterization. Um. But really, um, 99 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: it's it's not what you've done in the past, it's 100 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,440 Speaker 1: what you do today. And um. So I'm trying to, 101 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: you know, build my football endurance and football shape, and 102 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: every single day I'm out here, I'm trying to, you know, 103 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: get in better and better shape. And it's a great 104 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: opportunity with this heat. So that's all you need. You said, 105 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: there's a bigger emphasis on setting me and shooter versus attacking. 106 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: But maybe in the Michigan defense, Um, the edge was 107 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 1: definitely an emphasis, you know, at Michigan, especially since the 108 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 1: defense was a little different. Um, but it's definitely an 109 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: emphasis here. Nonetheless, it no matter where you go, an 110 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: edge is a vital part of your defense. And so 111 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: that's every day I'm out here, you know, it's all 112 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: we're always working on it and trying to improve, you know, 113 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: exactly when we have it and when we don't and um, 114 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: and so yeah, it's it's probably on par it's it's 115 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: very important, just in a different way.
