1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:03,120 Speaker 1: I was talking to O'shaney the other day and he 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: was saying, you know, the most frustrated thing for him 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:08,400 Speaker 1: to figure out this year, of all the lessons that 4 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:11,239 Speaker 1: he's learned, is that he makes a mistake and say 5 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 1: week too, you guys, attack it, fix it in, you know, 6 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: the Monday after, and he's still waiting for that play 7 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: to come back, for teams to attack you that way 8 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,959 Speaker 1: so that he can show that he learned it. Do 9 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: you find that with rookies that it's the patients involved 10 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 1: not just learning it, but getting the chance to show 11 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: you that they learned it. Yeah, I think that's an 12 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 1: interesting point. I think it happens not only throughout the 13 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 1: course of the season and the games, but it could 14 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 1: happen throughout the course of a week. Hey, you have 15 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: this one chance on a Wednesday to hit a play 16 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: and if you make the mistake, to get a chance 17 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 1: to correct it or show that you can correct it. So, uh, 18 00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,559 Speaker 1: that's the you know kind of you gotta do a 19 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: good job of physically correcting your mistakes, but also I'm 20 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,880 Speaker 1: doing it mentally, not only from your own but maybe 21 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 1: watching other guys and seeing somebody else either do it correctly. 22 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: Or incorrectly and then being able to learn a system 23 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,639 Speaker 1: or a play that way. Does he get anything out 24 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: of being I think I heard somewhere that he's filling 25 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: that Khalil Mac role this week in practice. Does he 26 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 1: get anything out of that he can translate to his 27 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: game when he's actually imitating somebody? Yeah, I think that 28 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: any time you get a chance to go out there 29 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: and compete, you can hone your skills and work on it. 30 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: Whether you're a specific guy or um, you know, you're 31 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: out there working on in something simple as key and 32 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: the ball, hitting your get off the right way, you know, 33 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,119 Speaker 1: or getting better at your get off or something like that. 34 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,560 Speaker 1: So I think anytime you get a chance to go 35 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,559 Speaker 1: out and compete against against guys, you get a chance 36 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: to uh make yourself better. But you don't see Khalil 37 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: mac skills there get well. Obviously Kalil is a great player, 38 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 1: and uh you know, I know, O, Shane's working a 39 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: spot off and hopefully we uh we keep getting him 40 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: in the right direction. There's been so much, you know, 41 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: the question marks all over the defense coming in, but 42 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: you know, you've got a lot of guys getting a 43 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: chance to show it. Do you do you feel the 44 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: development coming now that you know you're this group has 45 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: many games under its pelt. Yeah, I think that. You know, 46 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 1: as the weeks go by and they keep adding up, 47 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: you keep becoming less of a first year player or 48 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,839 Speaker 1: second year player, and uh, you kind of don't live 49 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: in the moment of what happened behind you or ahead 50 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: of you, but what you're doing right now, you know. 51 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: So that's constantly evolving. And I think my high school 52 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: coach said, you're either getting better you're getting worse. So 53 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: hopefully the guys are continuing to get better, and uh, 54 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: you don't really ever stay the same. So I think 55 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: that as you stacked those experiences together, you extact uh, 56 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: you know, playing specific plays or formations along with having 57 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: the sensation of just being out there. I think that's 58 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: going to help him out throughout the course of the 59 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 1: year and moving forward for sure. Thatcher said the last 60 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: week or so that what really defines guys in this 61 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 1: league is splash plays. Why haven't they come from Lorenzo Carter? 62 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: Is he getting extra attention from teams? He's depressing what 63 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: we thought he'd be. He even said he was a 64 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: ten sack kind of guy this year. And it sure. 65 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,320 Speaker 1: I think that everybody wants to be that competitor and 66 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: wants to put them selves in that position, and I 67 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: know Lorenzo does huh. Um. I know that he's a 68 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: competitive guy just being with him in you know, day 69 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: in and day out on it, and he wants to 70 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: make those splash plays. And I think that you can 71 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: look at a whole bunch of different factors. He's been 72 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: a guy that we've been able to move around. You 73 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: see him on the ball, he's off the ball, he's 74 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: in coverage, he's rushing, he's doing different things that way. 75 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: So that's a unique skill set that he has. Um. 76 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: And then I know that you know there's uh plays 77 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: that he wants to you know, be a step closer, 78 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: or accelerate a little bit more, or do things like 79 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: that to get himself. I think he's definitely holding himself 80 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: to that high standard still and uh continue to work 81 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 1: that whole We got six more weeks to hopefully put 82 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 1: the pedal tunnel metal a little bit with him and uh, 83 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully those numbers start to come
