2:28the people. I'm not how you handle it. It's a good show. The award seems to be coming on the come up. I'm excited to see you on the show. I thought you did a good job. I was surprised. Honestly, it seemed like you knew what you were doing. It was cool. This was your fault. You say you pay your mom a salary. Yes, win it all. Does mom get a pay raise or? I don't know what to talk about that. Just sure you'll have a meeting or something. Pick a cheek. Figure it out. Everybody should have a good event. Keep it. Peace. How much does it cost to be a spot on the wall? How much does it cost to be a good representation? Yeah. How much does it cost to be a spot on the wall? How much does it cost to be a spot on the wall? I mean, first off, I think I'd be doing this very much to my teammates. You know, me even thinking about what's next.

3:31What's right in front of us is an overview. And that's another thing I got to tell me so much. Drew is just being present in every single moment that I'm in. Not looking too far ahead because I'll trip on what's right in front of me. So, again, that's too so, I'm so happy to meet you for being thinking about what's next to me. Drew, are you at least aware that there's a lot of speculation out there that people are going to throw huge numbers if you were to go in the board all the season? I mean, right now I'm just not worried about all that stuff. I mean, people can say all they want to say, but, you know, I'm just focused on whatever's not right now. But I'm so excited for that. Nervous? I mean, I still get nervous for sure, but I just don't think. I think I do a picture of just understanding that at that moment, whatever moment it is that I'm nervous about, it doesn't define who I am as a person and it doesn't define who I am and God's eyes.

4:35And understanding and knowing that has just kind of put like this force field of peace around me that I think it allows me to be able to be calm in certain situations, but it doesn't. I still get nervous. I mean, I just love the game so much. And if you don't get nervous or a little bit of worry about this, I don't think you have that same love. I mean, I've got worry for instance, you know, going into football games since I was, you know, five, six years old. So I don't know if that's the only thing that I'm going to do. I don't know, I just feel football just doesn't mean as much as it did to me back then. I want it to always be that much easier. I've been told, but I think so. How does it affect you over how state can you make it? It's going to be an all-how state, guys. What? I mean, I think I'm going to be able to drive here because I'm going to be able to do this for my head.

5:37I was in the bench the first couple of times. So despite it being 16 to 9, we didn't really have a shoulder here. So maybe I could get a big plate out of the floor. I should not be able to do this for a moment. I think we've got a group of trolls on us. How great. How good was the game back in the game, guys? I think all of them gave us a lot of great, I think I'm going to hold on. I think it's a lot of people that love it. I think it's a time for us to have a group of trolls on us. And I think it's way too well. A lot of people love to do that. Sunny Oricbel seemed like he was always a good fan today. Two paths to go. I've got a couple of facts. How did you invite me to his performance line? It was really great. We were in the arm of those laws and we could do some different things on the field, like you said. So it made me feel surprised. I mean, we were seeing him throughout training and having a great time. And then, he made this place and he didn't know it was something surprising. How have you seen him improve in coverage? I mean, he's still athletic. As long as he has good eyes, he's been in coverage. So it's not too awful. It's really good to have that eyes. It's the same for me as mine. Sunny, first break of the season, come down here.

6:38How do you feel after this, for kind of like this first and foremost, on the year before we start making that play? Body feels good. I think, we're ready. We know what's going to be right here. And we know this week is a week to this chill. This kind of year, probably, you're ready to go live in a Washington or two weeks. Just ready for that. We just finished a week prepared for quarterback. And then he missed his lunch in the first half. Did you dream how does that change? Did you think defensively, as far as watching out here, what you might see? Yeah, I mean, he's a very athletic quarterback. So we're preparing for that, especially on third downs. The other quarterback coming in, he was a taller quarterback. He was able to make some easy, easy friendly, doughable over the middle. Because he was so tall. So we addressed that on the side. And I just suggested, we still were playing our scheme. And then we just started to bounce back there. Did you say anything in the open to those after? I'm just curious. And the competition was like, because it seemed like they were moving it so easily. It just couldn't have much of it. You know, what I'm saying is that you have to go off and start coaching the coaches.

7:41And you don't go off and start coaching the coaches. I guess I'm pretty sick of that, for this offense. From your point of view, to be able to stay calm in that moment, to go through two of the great things and just go through the next few. Yeah, I mean, there's a play where the ball gets hit. Like, stuff like that. More people are talking about this stuff. You know, on the red side, they had like, most professional days, they had like 570 yards. And they kind of didn't even feel like that because of some more original tricks. But as you see, I think they're often, they probably feel like, they were talking to coaches. That wasn't a mistake. They put a 500-7 yards in four of them. That's what you say. That just doesn't show up. It's not high experience here in the roles of the player. You wouldn't have six quarters without giving up any points. You give up a few more to touch down today. How disappointing is that from the defensive leader of the team? Yeah, I mean, I think the team we're playing against is not happy. It's not happy as you're having it. And that's just wonderful.

8:41Yeah, how are you feeling emotionally when you're rolling them in down there? So are you kneeling down there probably saying a prayer for them? Yeah, I was just making sure he was all right. I was about to go walk. It's pretty familiar. It's no short. It's a lot more for a stomach-slaid. Yeah, in talking about the full kick of them on Monday. I know you were excited about that. That was awesome against them. I have a lot of people coming to your zone cameras. Since then, I've got the day. I've got a few lessons in it. I've talked about chess moments a little bit. This amazing time is a powerful night. And when you think about the why are we, what are you hoping to do during the by-week? It's the proof. You know, take a look at the past three weeks. What is so much going to go up? How can I get myself a little fast in the circuit? Last question for Sonny. The DBs. Yeah, I mean, I had to be that super surprising. I like you saying our DBs are full. I think the best in the country is the only thing I've ever seen. Even the best. You know what I'm going to say is that we're not even small.

9:44I really plan as much. I just wanted to get more experience under my belt. I can bring younger guys with me because I've been through a lot. One of those younger guys we're seeing is the first time in the sport. What have you seen from Lille? I've never really seen him. I've never seen him. He was hurt. Now he's running almost a second man up on the unit. Ty. What have you seen in the event between these days? Well, it was a workhorse. He's going to stay quiet. He's going to work hard. That's all I love about him. He focuses. He don't really talk much. He's going to get the job done. Do a job right. Rarely has any mistakes. What would be a successful season? A national championship. A ring. When all the games we don't want to lose anything. We got a mindset that we can't be beat. And we just got to go show it. That mindset, different. It seems like you guys expect a national championship every year. This year, even more so, you guys have all come back. That's all decided like an opposite. Does that just keep feeling different?

10:45Or is there not really any difference? It's just the same work. It's definitely a difference. Everyone working harder. We noticed our last run. Most of us don't have any years after this. So we got to go bigger going home and we're not trying to go home. It's finished big. We know what you guys think of Michigan. But when you look at what they did, they won the national championship. And you guys took them down to the final minute. Right? You know what I mean? You were right there. Something goes a little different. You guys could have won that game against them. Does that tell you anything about like that? Hey, you guys want to win a national championship. But you played to the 59th minute with the team that won the national championship last year. Like you're that close. So I'm saying, we just work harder. That's kind of coach makes of saying, you know, nobody cares his work harder. So it's like, you know, one of those, you know, one of the players in Georgia is the same thing. Last play, you know, they went on the win in 90. So we just got to get over that hump at the end of the season. I think we'll be fine. How frustrating is that? You're that close against the last two national titles.

11:46Of course it is, you know, it's frustrating. But you can't change the outcome. You can't really dwell on it. You just got to, you know, come back and work harder. Do things better than you did last year. And hopefully the outcome will change. You get older, you kind of learn. I thought I was working hard and then you always find out there's a little more that you could have been doing. Yeah, definitely. I mean, that's how that's what growing up is basically in college. I thought, freshman year, I was working. It's hard as I could, but not look back at it. I really wasn't working hard at all, compared to what I'm doing now. So just to learn anything. If the stamina is a 16, then the answer to like, what do you need it to be to be your best? Uh, 85. 80, 85. I mean, I can, it's all on me. I just, I think it's a little higher. I was just trying to be funny, but I mean, it's all on me. I just got to run harder in shape. So I, the stamina, I do you have to have it. It's been a thing, yeah. The idea of a potential is 16 and 17 and 17. I mean, I said about that idea,

12:46does it make you nervous about, can you last that long? You're worried, you're worried about that. I think, I think we, I definitely can last. I was just, you know, we got to get the young guys that come along with us. We can't play 50 snaps again. That's just too much on our bodies. Uh, just everybody's like, oh, line, D line. We got to get those younger guys to play, you know, get that pieces on the D line and the O line and everywhere else. So we can last that long. Speaking of life, playing with all of them is snap. Did you like playing that many snaps again last year? I don't know if any of us were really expected to be playing that many snaps. Uh, yeah, I did. Unless we were like winning by like a lot. Uh, I thought like, there are no moments you know, sitting down or something. But we're playing them big games like, you know, Notre Dame too, and those kind of games. Of course, I want to be, because I know I can contribute. And I won't want to put that on anyone else when I know I need to drop them. What stands out about Taden McDonald? Is he got a kid? You guys in a second here? Oh, yeah, definitely. K-Mac is a K-Mac's animal. Y'all, you haven't really seen it yet, but in practice, he shows all the time.

13:48He's just, he's growing right now. He has to work, I think. He just has to get, you know, in the playbook and things like that. You guys are about the exact same size. Listen, you're both listening to 6-3, you're 3-27, he's 3-26. Yeah, he's very often. I kind of look at him like my junior, but, you know, K-Mac, he's going to be a great player. He's got to develop more and get into playbook. So really a lot on you, older guys, there's that large group of young guys, and then there's these seniors in the back. Is that part of your task for this year to bring those guys along as well? Yeah, definitely. We've got to be leaders. Like I said, we've got to have them play this year. We can't just play all the snaps. They got to get in there and get some work. And we've got to get them right during the all season. So they can play. And not just play, they want to contribute, like, make plays, tackle, and sex. It's a great day to work this fresh. It seems like these guys get bigger. Each one of the freshmen class is looking bigger and bigger. And those guys kind of, it does kind of value themselves the first. Yeah, they definitely need some big dudes. And they all work hard.

14:48I've only seen much of some of the day too when I'm passing on. But throughout the workouts, they've been working hard. They're determined. I just say that. And it looks like they're ready to work with me. How important this notes is. It feels like there's a lot of great defenses that you have big athletic defensive tactics that you can eat up space, but also move right through this. Is that an environment maybe from a great defense to have guys like you that have some balls? But also a great feature. I think that is definitely. I think if you look at the last couple of nice and the championship winners, like Team of North, they got two good detacles, two athletic detacles. Look at Georgia, two athletic detacles. I think that's definitely neat if you want to go on that big run and beat those big teams. If you think about this, they won't define by the defense attack. It's like, what's Georgia? It's Jordan Davis and DL Carter. Let's miss again. It's Chris Jenkins. Couple more questions. How do you understand this because you play it?

15:52I feel like some time I don't know. Are people realizing how important defense tackles are? A little bit more than they used to? I think there's started to develop more and more of these freaky detacles. In the combine, you see those guys moving forward to 478 and things like that. When you think about this freaky shot, how do you think you fit into that bowl of that kind of player? You watch that and say, yeah, that's me. Definitely. I think I'm top-notch when it comes to detacles, but I don't want to get a big head, but watch it come on. I watch it through the drills. I have tape theory. You're looking at my film. I think I'm up there with all those. Do you become like an artist who comes to the bad end passes the figure wags and your clings? When you're going to spring practice, you're not doing it much or left or left. Do you have a goal? I don't remember how many you have left. You have a goal in mind. How many do you want to have?

16:52I mean, as many as I can have, I think I have more than that. I think they've counted some of them. And some of them were just listed. But I think we work on drills matching the hand. I think that goes big. What we do is a D line. Just affecting the quarter of the deck is anywhere you can. It's just great for the defense. That little thing covering his eye, you know, he might throw it. A little bit to the left or our player. So it's something that you really, really have to work on. It's really, that's one of the things that you've maybe worked on the most. You can bring your time here because there are a few guys that I've seen. That passes you back down. We don't have to ask. We're kind of kind of expected for the second. I think I just have like an eye for the ball kind of. I kind of just look at the quarterback and just, I see him like load up. I just try to get in his way and sometimes he throws it to me. I'm irritated if you want to be a high state quarterback. I mean, they get frustrated by, you know, we're a team, you know, we're just getting better.

17:54I should lot of a lot of different backs, man. They just learn to grow for them. You got to pick your top three backs. You got to go right now. Oh, I don't really have a top three, but I'll give you. I would say, say, Juan Gibbs and I like McCaffrey auto. He was injured this year. I like McCaffrey. Best back in this draft. I lead out of the yard. That's y'all decision. Playing with Will Howard. What I'm going to remember most. We're a Howard man. He's just such a great lead. Such a great leader, man. It's just like in moments where, you know, usually a lot of players they fold, man. He was just always calm and relaxed, man. He just the leader that he was, man. That's one thing I'm going to remember about him. Yeah, he's shoot. He's going to be really good, man. He's on Coach Lock.

18:55I think he got the transfer in as well from West Virginia. Just that one two punch with them both as well. They're going to be really good backs. And so James people's man. He's smart the way that he goes about his business, man. He's mature. And so man, he's growing, you know, just as a person and as a player. And so man, yeah, definitely Ohio State. You know, that running back room is in great hands. I was right there looking at the UFC spot. But I'm just helping me raise my personality and the approach. I'll keep that up until they get the same way. Yeah. Coach Hardline, man. He's full of energy, man. And he's creative as well. You know, I'm just learning from him as well. You know, I'm trying to run more outside the backfield. It was being able to learn from Coach Hardline. And so he's definitely creative at what he does. And he brings a lot of energy to the team as well. And so I think they'll do really good. Straight away. And is that a way to play off runs? I can't wait to get back to what transfer is. Just the intensity, man. And the intensity of the playoffs. Every game, man, is like the intensity got, you know, higher and higher. And so, you know, being able, I know in the lead.

19:56It's the same thing. Even if it's not the playoffs. I'll just every game and intensity keeps getting higher and higher. And so, yeah, you just, I know you got to bring it. You know, each and every day and come in and work. And just like Ohio State, you know, I definitely feel like Ohio State. They definitely do a good job of preparing us for that. You know, I just remember even before going through this process, I'll talk to a lot of players before that. And they told me a lot of just about how much Ohio State prepared them. You know, for the NFL. And so, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I know I took a couple of days off after the National Championship. And then, shoot, right after that, I'm writing sample Florida. And I'm right to it. And so, yeah, I think while I trained, I trained at your birth performance. I think it's called the House of Athlete or the Compound now. They did a good job, man. They're just bringing us in and the way they went about training us, man. They did a really good job. I mean, have you played in the NBA?

20:56The Bucking Nears. No, I haven't. Do you think it's City Tampa? Tampa. Tampa, Tampa, nice. It's a nice city, man. Really nice. The 40, the broad and the vert. You've been on the races and awesome lockers. Do you speak to your mentality of like when you've got a linebacker or something in the shaft? Yeah. Yeah, no, man. It's really all about technique. And then it's about mindset as well. And so, I say, you know, it's for the love of my brother. It's for the love of Will Howard. It's for the love of the receiver. It's who I got on the perimeter. Just making sure, you know, first of all, my quarterback doesn't get sacked. And I told Will, I think it was before the first game. I was like, I got your brother. And so, I said, man, I'm not going to let you get hit. You know, and so, I don't know if I don't know if I gave up a sack. I'm not sure that, but I know if I did, I haven't given up too many. And so, man, it's for the love of my brother's, though, man, making sure the ball get in their hands, you know, the guys on the outside and making sure they get fed.

21:58You had to hit the practice field later today. What is something you've been working on right now? In my game. You can't really work on this, you know, in all season, I feel like it's more so, you know, you got to put the pads on. You got to go through some inside run, you know, maybe it's really just continuing to run through tackles. And so, that's, I feel like that's one of the areas in my game. You know, I want to continue to get better. I feel like I did a good job of that in my senior year. And so, I just want to continue to build on that. Yes, I did. Yes, I did. So, people, you look like, I'm going to bar out there. Get back in person. I can't remember who I was. I did meet with New Orleans as well. I never got that comparison. Actually, I know I have a Camera. Sure, yeah, man, I have a Camera. Great, great back, man. Just what he does and those 101 matchups, he's dangerous, man. And he's so smooth. He's so smooth as well. I'm not going to lie. He's smooth. Yeah.

23:00Inside zone from stack, being able to hit that thing downhill. And I'll say the next one is probably just an option route out of the back. And man, man, coverage, you're getting on that linebacker. And so. What do you mean? What do you mean? What do you mean? He'll be here in a couple of years. Jeremiah. You have the current, of course, that's how he's been. He's been doing it for years and years. And that pressure is so much in the future. Like I said, man. Yeah, I say to man, the biggest thing is the way that he carries himself, man. And the way that, man, he approaches the game. He comes in with the mindset, you know, he's going to work every single week. You know, every practice, you know, he's working hard. You know, even shoot. I don't know. Every good, I think he had a, every game was a good game for him, man. And so, but still, man, he always has the mentality to mindset that, you know, he's going to come in each and every day. He's going to continue to work and get better, man. And so he's definitely, man, he's going to be a special player, man. He really is. I think I'm going to start getting into some injuries.

24:00I think it's a massive injury. When he was back running, what, what, what, stand down? Man, a lot of ups and downs, man, it's just how you respond to adversity. And I feel like that's something that God has definitely helped me to do better. It's just, I'm not going to have something to lean on now. You know, I remember before I met him, you know, going through those adversity, I had nothing to run to. You know, you can run to people, but they still can't, it's not too much. They can't truly help you. You know, I feel like, you know, I feel like the only person that can truly help you is your relationship with Jesus Christ. And so, being able to lean on him, you know, he gives you, you know, his moments where it's tough, you know, where it's slow. And when you're behind the scenes and you're going through things that people don't know about, he gives you that peace and comfort, you know, even in those moments, man, where it's so hard that you can't, you can't explain. It's like, man, I'm going through this, but like, how am I still filled with this internal joy? You know, how do I have so much peace in this situation? And so, that's something that only Jesus Christ can give you. And so... The back of the firm, the power of judgment is through our effectiveness.

25:02Which aspect, the future, those other individuals that you run to, the body, and from being around power to heaven? Um, man, those guys have such a great mentality, man. Am I just really loved their mentality? Especially Q as well. You know, I talked about Will Howard, his leadership, but Quincham mentality, man, um, that boy just, yeah, that boy just gifted, you know, you see, you know, sometimes he put in a situation where he looked like, you know, he should have a negative five yards. And then as soon as you know it, you know, he, the running through somebody, still farming somebody, and shoot, it's a game to 10. And so... Do some of the things he does, he just realizes two different guys. Yeah. Um, shoot, I think... Yeah, man, I think it just like, he's just gifted, man, to be honest. He's just gifted, you know, he's a big back, you know, he's strong, and so, um, you know, he's able to do those things. So, um, yeah, man, it's definitely, you know, I look at his game, and I want to, you know, at the same time, I want to learn from Quincham, you know, I want to look at his game,

26:04and it's like, man, where, where can I get better at as well? You know, that's the type of player I am. I'm always looking to get better, man. I'm always looking to grow as a player. What's your last one to tweet? Julian San. Oh, yeah, he's going to be a great, but he's going to be a great quarterback, man. So, so accurate, and so, um, he's definitely, man, I know Coach Dez is definitely going to get him right, just, you know, um, container grow as a leader, container grow as a player, and so he's going to be really good for a high state. Thanks for having me, guys. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Uh, he's, I know just the quarterback position, um, I feel like, you know, the quarterbacks in the past, they've, they've definitely been vocal, and so I feel like that's something that they're definitely going to, um, ask Julian San as well, is to beat that vocal leader and lead, um, and lead to offense and lead to team. Thanks, Julian. Thanks, Julian. Thanks, Julian. Thank you. Sure, man, he has, he has a build like JK Dobbins, and um, I kind of see them, you know, similar, similarities in their game as well, and I know JK Dobbins, he was a great running back. I feel like he's not talked about his, not a lot, but man, his career here, you watch his highlights,

27:05is great. I remember, um, before I recruit, before I committed here, I remember watching JK Dobbins highlights, like every, every, um, one of his years here, like four or five times. And so, man, he was such a great back. And, um, I feel like, you know, um, when I see JK Dobbins, when I see, um, James People, I see similarities to both of their games, I feel like they play the same. And so, I appreciate you all, yeah, I'll be going. Yeah, I'll be going. This. Yeah.

31:50Hopefully I'll come in and lash our new role, so I'll just attack everyday. Really the same way. It's taking up on the van's area. Physically, how different are you, weight wise, body wise on that, from the year ago? I think I got a lot bigger. I'm 244 right now. Lash, I played at like 236 to 277. How does it feel like in 244? Almost a different machine out there. feel like we run around out there like you are but with more more bad. I just feel like I'm like like like more downhill like stronger like I'm taking all the bloods better. It's big. No. Is it don't think maybe that's not the correct term but to think you're going to be playing much more than you did even last year and you played quite a bit last year and stuff. What do you have to get straight in your head about being on the field that much more? Is it going to get ready to just play 30 more snaps? But how would you describe how much you're looking forward to it from an

32:54eight stand point? I'm looking forward to it. I'm ready for it. I'm ready for it. The text is open. It's a rematch. But it's not really two different teams compared to the last time you all played and stuff. How has that enhanced this camp for you and this team getting ready for the where an opener of that magnitude? Yeah, with an opener like that, we've been emphasizing it a lot. We know we got coming so we know we got to do it. We've been prepared for it. Already just probably. I think Riley ready to play right now. He advanced freshman like he ended up here in the book. He studied in like he advanced and his measurements is crazy. Like he saw like the saw line to him. Or like you said you're ready. Right? You know you're ready. What was that process like during last season? Could you feel yourself becoming more and more ready? Yeah, because that's pretty much what my role was. Just whenever I was needed, I had to step up. So I feel like that's what built me into me being able to say I'm ready for this year. When you say ready, is it more a physical thing?

33:55Is it a mental thing? When I say ready, I think it's pretty much like everything physically, mentally, mostly. I think I'm there. A different is that feeling this year than last year? I asked the one more time. How different is that responsibility? That's just the emotional thing all that. If it was last year, you knew you were a homemaker. I feel like it's a way bigger responsibility with me having to step up this year. But I kind of go about it the same way. Like last year I was intentional with everything I did. This year it's going to be the same thing. It's probably a little bit more. For somebody who's not ready for this year, it's going to be the same thing. And what work? How's everybody working? I say, describe my game. When you think of me, you would think of like a bullet, like a silver bullet. I don't really know bullet.

34:56I'm always on the ball. That's how I like to play and think. What do you think of my nickname? I don't think I'm going to be my nickname. I'm not saying that the nickname can be that. Oh yeah, that's a whole new thing. Yeah, that's a whole new thing. I've got a couple more questions for Patricia's style. And how is it free? How does that fit the view? And what are you enjoying about it? The playing and that kind of stuff? I think it fit me because I just like the defense. I feel like we got, like you said, we got a lot of freedom. We're moving around a lot of the times. You know, I don't know. I don't really not answer that. That's okay. You can go on your instincts a little bit more. Maybe it's not so thinking of too much. I don't even know if I say that because there's a lot of thinking going on. But it's like, I just like it's defense. I like her Patricia's defense. I like what he got going on. What was it, Sadman? CJ left me. No, I wanted to say that. I was kind of like happy for him. That's what you want. No.

35:56No. No. That's my dog. I'm kind of missing a little bit. I'm happy for him. Well, don't thank you. Go ahead. One last question. Coach Daze talked a lot about the guys who played some last year, but maybe weren't the starters and the hunger for that wasn't maybe your national championship you guys will win your own. How much do you feel that as a guy who certainly contributed last year? I feel like I will be in this bigger role and I want to sum your classmates. Yeah, I do feel like, um, yeah, I do feel like I did win a national championship, but like you said, my role wasn't same as how it's going to be this year. So yeah, I definitely want to go get another one experienced that feeling. Maybe on the field, a lot more place. Great. Oh, Bell, thank you very much. Thanks, guys. Thank you. I'm sure that was a lot of great players playing this. I'm sure that you guys are doing a great season. What's up? I think it applies to me to just pretty much. I'll talk to you guys. I just feel like, do you guys down here selling the work? I'm seeing my score and opening 90 fingers.

36:57Yeah, most definitely is the bang of faking maybe a little too much. Yeah, I already heard it. So those dudes got their win. Some of the best players. I think you do. You know, I'm saying they ain't playing the preseason. You know, we're talking a lot. And they bust it out. Right? So it's not about that. We practice hard. We go about things the right way all throughout camp. We attack this camp and truly a lot of the guys that's been out of the place and said this is the hardest camp they've been in the past. So, so, so, it's been a really. Basically pretty much is the thing. Yeah, we did it last year and I'm not sure if it's fake. It is what it is. It's a scrimmage. So those joint practices, you know, we went about them in the right way. At the end of the day, we didn't play good this Monday. But you all want it. Get it on the ground. Why is it jumping out of the way? What's the point of it? They're doing something. I think you just got a lot of time to guys here. We got down the field, you know, we, we, we, we, two ourselves in the field.

37:59We got to find ways to keep driving on and off of these plays. You know that? That, that, y'all see all glimpses. We'll happen a little more. We've got to find ways to get the right. We've got to get the right. You know, I just, I got to play better, you know, personally. Yeah. What were 49ers going to kind of give you some problems tonight? I just played harder than us tonight, honestly. I feel like we didn't do a good job with sustaining drives. Obviously, I take that personally on myself. I had a job in the fumble, so I feel like I cost those two sustained drives there. You know, we played a great defense that, you know, did their job very well. I feel like part of it was us beating ourselves and not just being on our details, but, you know, part of it, you know, hats off to the mid to the great job. You guys are doing pretty good. You said they played harder than you guys. I mean, is this a little bit of a wake-up fall? Do you know what that team is accomplished on it? You guys are trying to reach. Right. Yeah, I feel like, you know, obviously, I feel like we have all the talent and pieces that we need in place is just, you know, obviously.

39:00Sometimes you need that type of game to see like what you need to do, where you need to be at, and the standard that you need to be at. So I feel like, you know, we're going to learn from it. Just get better from night to worried about it tonight, you know. 16 teams are on one, 16 teams are on one to know. Why aren't you worried about it? Just because we know that, you know, this isn't our standard, and we know that's not how we need to be playing. So I know we're going to, you know, I'll come back tomorrow, forget about it, watch the film, take the constructive criticism, and just get better from it. So we're all getting out there, we've been there, and then what did you see? Or did you see, you remember that you finally got to look at it in the game? Yeah, I just, just know that, you know, you got to be real attentive to him. Me and him communicate every play in the back, but I was verified with him, as far as protections he wants, and the routes I'm going to run out of the backfield. So, you know, he just came up to me today. I told him I was sorry, I didn't play, as well as I could have, I just put my potential in. He just, I just don't be a long season, but I'm not worried about it, you'll be fine.

40:00So, like I said, I didn't play up to my potential the day, so I feel like as a whole offense, we got to be better for our defense, and our defense wants to be better for us, so we'll be fine, because we're going to get better as a whole. It's obvious for the first time you guys as an offense, we're going to get there, and we've gotten to play this many plays. What do you think will benefit from getting back and looking at it, and kind of just go out over everything that you guys did tonight being able and then get forward with the tape, just having that experience. Yeah, I think it's just all of a matter of watching the tape and seeing where we shot ourselves in the foot. I feel like we did do some good things today, but obviously we didn't sustain dry as well enough, which they were doing, and that's why they were able to control the time of possession towards the end of the second quarter through the rest of the game. So, I just feel like we've got to continue to be on our details and sustain drys, and that's where I pride of them myself. You know, Aaron said he needed to play better, and everybody on our offense obviously thinks they needed to play better, but for me personally, I said I had a Mr. Reader to drop in the fumble, so I feel like I put that on myself,

41:02which I'm going to come back and get better. I want my coaches to really, really, I know they're going to coach me and give me the constructive criticism I need, so I can rebound and just be better for the next game. What did you learn about Aaron in the Huddling? I already knew everything about him from him being around, just us going through camp. He wasn't anything different. You know, he never gets too high or too low. He kind of stays, of course. Obviously, he was frustrating because we weren't converting how he wanted to today, but you know, he's a real leader, real captain, and you know, a great leader of a team, so I think we're going to be fine. You guys had that drive where you went up, you know, 70 yards in support. Uh-huh. Did you feel like you guys were about to start going on an upper track? You know, I didn't really have that. Did the field start kind of going all the way to that? Yeah, I definitely did. You know, obviously, we showed that, you know, when we, when we, that we came up the ball, when we went to, we're really high powered offense, but, you know, we just didn't click how we showed up today, and that's what caused us to have to have to go to the 49ers they did,

42:04what they did well, so, you know, we just got to be better at the end of the day. The number is called, obviously, because we had Seth go down, we had Jimmy go down, and like, you always, you got to be ready, 100% of the time, otherwise, you just got to be ready. You guys being here for a different month, you got to be ready. Right, but we've seen that throughout all the guys on the list. Oh, I would say like half the line is doing that. Okay. Can you be come from Michigan? Like, that's not too common, or a higher state player to come from there. What does that experience like? I would say, it's not, I wouldn't say it's that crazy, because I grew up in Michigan State fan, but obviously, I committed North Western, because I never got, I never got really like looked at by the Michigan State coaching staff, and then obviously, they didn't have like a great, obviously, my old talker got fired, so obviously, and then Ohio State called me, so I'm like, you can't pass it up, so obviously, now I'm here. What is your goal for this season in terms of your development, and where do you want to be by the time fall camp ends,

43:04and the season starts? My goal is to get better every day, and just be what I need to be for the team to go away games. Where have you been primarily working this spring? What position? Right guard left guard. How long do you want to change physically? Last year, like, wait, are you up to your desire to change physically? I got here, because I came, I was in summer and roll league, so I came in at like 295, and now I, this is like consistently through 15. I imagine that you're ideal way through 15. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You play both guard spots, I think you're seeing, right? That seems like everybody would talk at this, play multiple spawns, as you were saying. You need to be, you guys learn last year, you have to be versatile, you go line, obviously, because it's not good when you're all American center goes down last year, but obviously Carson was a really good asset. So he started the year before, so he's really good. It's not like we had a big drop-off, so we always got to be ready when we're always going to be in the other spawn. Yeah, if you, obviously, the losing coach probably even the guy who got a little relationship with him,

44:04he had an iris at the time on campus, but then someone coached him, but when they came down and they obviously got the coach down, that's coming in, who I know you knew from Purdue a little bit at least. Well, what was the like to hear that he's coming in and be like, oh, at least it's familiar, you're near the end of that kind of already know. good seeing familiar faces and yeah obviously I like both of them so it's I mean it's not really drop off the price so it's good I just walk out Mike's busy over there Jerry's gone to the other max I'm sorry to understatement to say but what we're getting to win mean to you guys that's how I mean everything I mean I mean that's what we're striving for we've got a build each set of go get that one and it's gonna feel great I didn't tune out all the may sayers and the social media stuff I mean he's got to tack every day I'm trying to look into it because obviously I don't know what's going on out here and you know what you know what we got and we know we can go we can go win games for sure coach Walters is saying the other day that he sees you know when you guys get things don't go real way kind of

45:07panic starts to set in what do you guys as players need to do to come back that yeah I think it's just not getting too high not getting too low you know saying in a nice even medium and attacking each play at a time no matter what the score is and doing doing it to the best of your ability what what ails this offense the most I think just saying ahead of the chains and getting getting past those third downs converting on the third downs I mean that's what we got to be better at and within the day we got to put him in zone for not doing that we're not doing our job so you guys create more explosive plays as an offense right I think you stick with it you know the explosive plays are gonna come and now he's got to trust that and they'll be there for us for sure coach sins has been here for highs and lows over the many many years he's been with this program now what sort of his message to your group right now or when you're turning to him what is he saying as far as how to get through this yeah

46:08so I think it's just really just coming and attacking every day as you would regardless and you know staying staying even even through hardship and attacking attacking it the same way every day that's really all you can do and you just get a little better every day and see where it takes you based on the way things already we're setting up but then also a Jason Simmons was calling the game on Saturday seemed like Titans are gonna be a big part of this as you guys are trying to pull out and what role do you think you guys are gonna have in trying to get this offense yeah I think we I think the role is always try to help the offense move the ball and whether they were called upon to do that in the past game or the run game we just got to step up and do our job at a high level and whatever you asked from us we just got to do it at high level and let the offense go some of leaders some of leaders I'd say Gus is a big leader I mean he's been doing it for a while and I know someone that everyone trust is

47:10gonna do his job at a high level and I think we have Hudson's a good leader too as well obviously is a quarterback so he takes on that leadership role and I think we just have a good amount of leaders you know throughout the offense we told George might be fairly close to getting back what would mean to get him back in the mix with the Titans yeah be great I mean Georgia's a great athlete so having a math there can only help you know we're really excited about him and what you can do on the field so it'd be great I'm our first guy just told him and I get faster so I put my hands on the quicker that's fine every game but yes every game is there's always one moment where you like if I did do this in the way room you let her this then I will end up in that situation so pretty much every game I was really good not to set a stone just yet but we've been rotating times to

48:18do best works and we've been all driving at the same time you see something is that about the physical stuff is that something else that you most of just give a just a position that was the main thing just same everything but tell me you really have throughout the process tell me get better and go in after one of the national champion you get in a mix of really he told me main thing he would tell me would stop overthinking just just block their play and that really helped me because you know new position trying to find my rareness so it's pretty good to use systems on it what do you think about the physical what do you like about it?

49:18three-take I mean the strength wise about all of them and speed gets those guards that's really helping a lot what were the conversations like when this first came up that you possibly think who are you talking to what what was it like in your mind when they asked you about attention? well I talked to Coach Jay because there was the main one he wasn't forcing me on that thing he just said for moving inside he can if not still dead and then you can do that as well but I saw that I could help the team up get some death right there so I chose to move inside as a police that's helping me prepare, and hard, thank you very much. Wally, thanks for your visit. Yeah. You're welcome. So how was it? I had a question for Jack.

50:21I mean, generally very young down in ninety nine Developers on the grounds of possibilities that are not included in a If I didn't know where to go get something down, they'll tell me or they just like hanging out with me doing an enclosure. Just a lot of different small things that got brought us closer to like last year. They already started going this year. I haven't started yet, but I'm gonna give it to them. You feel them? Yeah, I feel like, maybe we teach them how we do that. Anybody can be a leading no matter what you ask. Freshroom, so I'm more junior or senior. Or even if we're walking, everybody can be a leader just. Yeah, that's what I think. It hits you last year that, yeah, this technique, this thing can work for me. I mean, or maybe you get, did you have to grow into it? I had to grow into it a little bit. It's very new, especially playing D in my own life. But I had a talent to help me, like I said, throughout the whole process. Yeah, when did it really strike you that I could be a factor?

51:21Yes, the guy was. You know, what game or, you know, how do I win the two-field comfortable on this, or anything else? I would say closer towards the playoffs, meet them until I leave the lot. I would feel comfortable by okay, I can actually do this, because we'll show me some strengths I have, like, see him, like see you can do this, and that really helped me get the confidence and know that I can. Yeah, but then you became a factor. You became a factor, especially, you know, especially through the playoffs instead. Would that mean to you to be a factor that early? All the word of God first of all, to keep me healthy, to keep doing that. But it's been a lot that Coach J, trust me enough to go in and to be games like that. And I knew that I would be able to produce. What about your skillset, do you think? Good so far. Definitely speed and strength was my main two, and I was saying, will help me in the inside of which those guards. I think that was really one thing inside, when you were actually like, you wanted to be a champion, right? So what's the changes in the moment, which is to realize that your body's taking it there.

52:24What is the moment for you to do? What character are you going to take it up to? Definitely, my main thing also, and so I thought the interview, some of those interviews, I said the main thing was being a team player and moving the three teams was going to help the teams, and I was really moving things with it. It's the compass, right? Jason and Will and Tim Tawar, I was very competitive. We all come in, trying to see where we need to get better, just to keep moving forward. So it's pretty good competition, and I love them. And Drake, you made the move like during the bi-week last year, is that right? What was the toughest part about that whole crash course? Really, Nathan, I really embraced it. I made the move inside and I wanted to help out the team. We had some really great years last year, that's learning. JT Jack, Kenny Kerry, Kenny Jay,

53:24so it was pretty good, and then moving the three-take, I also asked Dev down there while still getting there, for sure, in case without God damn. Did you feel like you, like, just needed to get done quickly? Like, did you feel like pressure to get it done quickly because you needed to be ready for that next game? No, they were all in on me, just whenever I'm ready, just let them know how I feel about moving in or setting myself. Did you still find that answer? You know, we heard three questions. Now, I was really good to you. You played as a freshman, so it takes a little bit of a question. So you've done the way to those guys. Actually, I think the reason is that they're going to be the same. Jack, where has Tracy, all the guys that came in, they continue to work hard every day. Even if they don't get it the first time, they don't ask us on what are they doing in this situation to help me out. So, the ability to keep trying to learn from people that's playing in their big stage, that's the way it really going to keep them going. Were you surprised how quickly things did start to play for you inside? Just giving you said they were going to be patient with you.

54:24But by the time you get to the playoffs, you're playing like that. Was that the surprise how quickly it just kind of happened? Not really. I knew once I got it, Jose was going to trust me a lot more than to keep going out there each and every time. So, I appreciate him. Like I said earlier, thank you Lord. And thank you guys. Thank you. I'll try to do it. Thank you, bro. Those visiting folks today.

55:24Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. What's your business? I'm going to be talking about the sales and the quality of the fountain. I guess it's all about the profit. First time I met up with Novi, we just found it really well. What do you think he came running through the fountain? You know, we were passing through the fountain. So, like, we're going to lock you in. So, like, we're going to lock you in. So, like, we're going to lock you in. So, it's been like for you, just doing that to count the one you've been out of time. Let's go to the small office. Different being an out-of-state recruit here. There's one you were just going to pump along with Novi, it's definitely different. So, fly here.

56:25New generation of recruits, where I don't think anybody outside looking at new questions, the strength of your commitment, you're locked in your last eight, you send it over and over. But, you're making visits around the country. You've seen other schools. It's almost a totally different mindset. What's that? Co-op to the label. How do you approach those other visits? And how do you communicate with Ohio State about them? It's been the message that you've dealt with. I think it's a different house. I just like to know that, you know, I'm always locked in, you know, I'm still enjoying buses. This is the only average one time. I'm just going to have a seven. Enjoy your sports. The other school is outside of life. Yes, can be really hard trying to get to the flip. So, Ohio State, you know, is where I will be. What is it that's made you want to take photos with us? I'm an advisor. I'd share some work for you. What did you tell you? What is he? Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all-new drink lineup at McDonald's.

He always tries to give me nuggets, you know, just throughout this whole season. You know, he just told me, taught me a lot. Just about the gang, off the field stuff. So we always taught him. Jason, how would you summarize the impact of Brian Young? Oh, BYU. You know, a guy who played position. A guy who just been around the gang. So long. You know, we go to practice. We go back to the basics. Hand placements, steps. Low pad level. So BYU, he's definitely a great addition to, you know, just taking that role and, you know, doing this thing with it.

1:00:35Has the past rush been simplified a little bit? Aaron was kind of saying that like over the last four weeks, some of the how has it been? We've been scheming up a little differently, but, you know, for the most part, it's just now just being our one or one. It's, you know, you know, just getting opportunities to do it. It looked like just going back and watching through that the commander has put some extra attention on Brian, Brzee, and on the interior every now and then. How does that impact you guys over on the edge? Yeah, it was every own, you know, you know, you know, at least one guy one on one. And I think yesterday we just doing real good. It just went on one on one on all across the board. And is that where sort of the fundamentals of what BYU has been focused on? Is that where that has the greatest impact? We've just been focusing on everything past rush, run games, just everything is up.

1:01:43Okay, guys. Thanks, though. Thanks, Jason. Cool. Thank you. So, I mean, some people may not need it. Some people need it, but I mean, I just like to get as many reps as I can. I mean, for me, it's always just kind of getting my little details perfectly, like my steps, my footing, kind of just perfecting my toolbox. What we call it, my craft, and just trying to be a, it's like a whenever every place you try to do. Yeah, I'm definitely just getting stronger faster, everything all the above, but one of my big things is being leader. And kind of just not trying to look, still look up to Jack and JT and kind of have my own kind of leadership and be able to bring people into. And kind of have a lot of leaders on the B-line and at the B-In position, so we kind of all kind of just count off each other and go.

1:02:45It's been a tough challenge for me to go through. I'm going to have to talk to you guys, playing with them all, and being on the field, and just talk to them, and try to keep us going. So, you need to get these guys out of that position. It's been competitive, and we love it. We all competitive people, we all love to push each other, and that's really the thing in the best side of all. We all just kind of bounce it off each other, and see what one person does, and be kind of better than the archival box, and we all kind of just kind of build on one great thing. Hey, do you remember last year when you got the shot at the full-backing? And did they approach you with that idea and you could have seen them? I mean, how did that come about? Because you heard Jack saw your sloppy. You could have touched that. So, I definitely did it in high school. I was pulled back and a little bit of tidied in. So, I feel like it kind of saw what I could do there in Coach Wilson, honestly, he loved watching it too, before he left. And he felt like he planned that seed in Coach Day's head, and Coach Day kind of just went for it, and I tried to do the best I could to do it. Is that continuing now?

1:03:46I mean, you know, anything to scream about? New playbook, I did not know you, I've gotten that far. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. How top of set is there? Yeah, look at that. I like to think myself as a football player. I can really play any position on the field you need me to, just give me a weaker two to learn it, and kind of perfect it, and I'll try to do my best for you. Kid Jack, do the same thing. Oh, yeah. Well, what about you? Roughly, that's why. I was talking to Coach Johnson on Tuesday about some of the conversations and sort of saw you and got out to our set of conversations after JT and Jack decided to come back. Just kind of went into those from your perspective, and how did that help you maybe get the right mindset, I guess, when you need this for me? Um, definitely kind of seeing it all the way through. I feel like the people kind of just see what happened, and they don't know everything that goes into it, how long the season is now, what you got to do to prepare for, and what's happening all that time from here to then. So, I feel like we definitely just coached in me, kind of connected, and we kind of just talks, man or man, and he kind of just sent it straight to me,

1:04:46and I feel like we kind of both are going on, and we know what we're making it. We're making each other better every day, and we got the four best DNs, five best DNs, honestly, in the College Football, and we're going to be one of the best DLines in College Football. What do you feel like a better player today than you were in this season? Um, I feel like I've taken big steps in my roles, of just being responsible and being more of a leader, and kind of stepping up and taking a step to kind of get out there more on the team, and kind of bring people in, and I feel like I'm kind of helping out more. How do you record your head around the possible, to see what TKFC is up to? I mean, it sounds bizarre, but I mean, the season goes by so fast already, so when you're kind of like week 10, and you're like, wow, it's already week 10, so now it's kind of, it gives you more time to kind of enjoy it, and kind of savor it, because you've come already here for a really, a really fresh, fresh, fresh, fresh, crazy. But you don't want to spend all your power for the first month of the year, right? And there is a, that pace yourself, I mean, there is a mindset, and I think that the season is.

1:05:46Yeah, definitely, definitely going to have the mental stability to handle all those weeks, and all those practices. How much is Larry talking to you? How would you describe the mentality of the defense right now, getting this opportunity for a rematch in the world? Yeah, hungry and thankful. I mean, we know how the last time when, you know, we had a chip on our shoulder. I mean, we were riding high before that game, and we took that loss, and we came back, had to make a couple changes, but I think we understand what, you know, everything's at stake right now, you know, just fighting to where, another high stage jersey for the next game. That's what's on stake, and just to be able to represent this state and this team. I mean, we understand what's on the line, and you know, we're just hungry and blessed that we get this opportunity to play in the Rose Bowl. Right behind your Adam King, WBNS. What do you remember most about walking off the field in Eugene? What was kind of all your minds in that moment? I mean, there is a, I don't think anybody imagined it, imagine a solution.

1:06:46You know, I didn't, that's for sure, but after that it was kind of head deep. I understand it, that man, we still, there's still a lot of ball left to be played. I mean, you can let it sting for a little bit, but you know, if you let it carry over too long, then, you know, there it goes, there it goes your whole season. But I think we did a great job of just understanding, coming together in this room right here, not being afraid of display or hold accountability for one another. And, you know, as that happened, I'm back regrouped and, you know, we're just, just going right now. And, you know, I'm just blessed for those specific moments, you know, losing. I mean, no one wants to lose, but the testimonies and the things you're taught within those little situations speaks of all of you. That's our all-round, Vladimir Drow. Hey, Jay, what have you seen from King Gowd? The last couple of weeks, was there like a push from him and then there were many conversations with him and he seemed like he was playing some special moments in his head. Yeah, I mean, that's my boy, he's in the R2X club too,

1:07:49but, you know, Kinyata, I mean, every time his numbers call, he goes out there and makes the most of it, no matter where we are in the game. When he goes out there, he's just hungry. He wants to go make plays and, you know, we see it and practice. So it's not surprising to us. Bill Rebino, explain this back. Dylan Gabriel's obviously very elusive and he's not very tall. How important it could be to just kind of stay in your past rush lanes and neglect a lot of balls and kind of make it different that way? Yeah, I think it just comes out being disciplined. No one who you're playing against, like you said, Dylan, he's a, he's surely very elusive. I mean, he can, he is making throws. I mean, he get out the parking to everything. So I think for us, we just got to say discipline and just continue to just meet with Coach Jay, meet with the coach's nose and understand how we can just eliminate that. One question about you and Jeff. I mean, your personality seems to be a little different. You're more on the quiet side.

1:08:49He's not. Yeah. How about you? You've played together four years, both five store guys. Kind of describe your relationship with him, friendship with him. Yeah. And just kind of how you complement each other. Man, that's my brother. Like he said, we're different but very alike. I think outside on, like you said, he's louder. I'm quiet, but you know, once we're on that field, we're like the same person. We'll do anything for this team. You know, we'll die for our players and we'll give everything we got. Room together for four years, correct? Yeah. Fall camp. Every room. Yeah. Sometimes go over there. So go over there. So yeah. There's the meet one who's the messy one. We have our share of days when we, when I'm neat, he's neat or you know, we might both be messy, but we do a good job. Yeah. I'd probably say I would better kick the jack though. Tony Gertman, like I held. When you're playing a team for the second time, and that was almost a season to go by now, how much of, are you at square one with the scouting preparation or how much do you take in that game?

1:09:51How much do you avoid taking so that you don't have any creative notions of what you're going up against on the offense blind? I say it's pretty 50-50. I mean, that game, like you said, it was a while ago, but at the same time they elevated as a team. So did we. So we understand that they had, they made some changes for sure. You know, there's, there's a certain tendency we can take back from that game, but we also understand that they went on a little run after that, and we can see that they elevated as an offense. So we just got to continue to watch those games, dissect other games, and just continue to see what stands out and what they changed from the, for the past game. We got a couple calls on Zoom that will wrap up with, first we have Nick Hamilton from Nightcast Media. Nick? I just wanted to ask you basically about the synergy of this defense and how you guys were able to not only celebrate the triumphs, but get through the adversity, be able to be this top notch defense that you are in college football today.

1:10:51Here, Pete, the question one more time. Yeah, no problem. I wanted to ask you about the synergy you are able to develop over the course of the season, obviously celebrating the triumphs, but also getting through the adversities to where you go all the top notch defense that you all are today. Yeah, I mean, like you said, we went through a lot of trials to trials, but there's also, there's a lot of things we can take away from all the wins and losses. And from those, those wins, we understood that, hey, we can be the best defense in the country. And from those losses, we understand that there's still things that need to be fixed. And I think when you take all that in at once, that it comes out to the common goal or the common talk, which is you can, there's always learning points everywhere. And depending how we dissect those games or how we just continue to come as one and elevate, you know, we continue to just collect all those learning points and just continue to grow from them. And one final question. Joey Coffin, Columbus Dispatch.

And just late in the season, you think about turning some of the pressures that you've got on a quarterbacks and the sacks and getting home in some of those situations? Yeah, I think it was more just understanding the defense as a whole. Understanding everybody's job. The thing is, as the season went on, we got to understand that. We have to know what's going on in the back. We have to know what's going on in the linebacker crew to understand what plays we have in the room of freedom.

1:14:57And I think once we understood that and got a better understanding of everybody's job. I mean, it showed this play because everybody knows what each other is doing. It's not like the lineback is not what they're doing. The corners and B.I., they know only their job. I think we all know each other's job and we continue to ask each other questions on, you know, if they're listening to how they can get to the quarterback and, you know, if I'm dropping and playing quarterbacks by I can ask Cody on how to open field tackle. So, you know, we just kind of lean on each other's understanding because, you know, like I said, like Denzel knows how to play corner better than I know how to play corner. So, you know, he has more wisdom at that position than I do. JT, thank you very much. Thank you. The first race is the moment like Denzel in the ball time. A new way. Definitely, a little bit of both. Obviously, I just wanted the team to win. I think we got a chance to win. No, definitely towards it. And then it stretched out last drive. I was a couple of plays here. A couple calls that he made me should have gotten. But I think the frustration more so it just comes from, you know, wanting to win more or anything.

1:16:00True. You said he was a little surprised how much attention you got right away from the defense. How about you? Yeah, definitely. We maybe gilded with more one of ones kind of how the game plan was set up. You didn't got like, you know, different coverage out of cloud to my side. And I just kind of had the game go. What's the process been in the elections sometimes where, for whatever reason, just to see that. Yeah, definitely. Especially in college, a lot of the game friends defensively were taking your leg. You know, we had a lot of success at a bounce. They obviously were in one of the ball having different weapons. They kind of still get the victories. And I was, you continue to do better jobs doing that. A lot of the communication, the process, been like post game, getting on the same page with Kyler. You guys exchanged tax terms. You guys in the film? Yeah, film them definitely kind of asking what did I see there? Kind of go over and play. And I just kind of give him what I saw and kind of different feedback there. Exchange words.

1:17:00Mark, I get it. I think we're asking questions about the previous game. Are you the type of guy to let a game like that winger or how do you flush it? You got to move on. Got to move on. Some long season. Got like 16 more of them. Hopefully, you know, I can stay healthy throughout the year and just continue building to get better each week. You guys did so much work throughout the off season to get on the same page. How different is it when you get into that regular season? Yeah, it's totally different. It's totally different. You can do a lot of things, you know, in shirts and shorts. And then once you go out there, put practice and you got pads on. You do like the point practice we do with the colds, but there's nothing like actually going out there in live action. And really trying to be on the same page. So I think that would really should be able to continue to develop and we'll get better. Is that it just a matter of reps then? Just a matter of reps then. Yeah, definitely. Definitely. Like I said, I was kind of my first live action together. So I can continue with. When you're early impression. So I turn around and feel together and increase in the numbers. Yeah, but now obviously I have a desert respect. I mean, I'm just a JG's call or three seasons.

1:18:00I obviously be off of a really healthy. That's kind of the most important thing. I obviously get a lot of healthy even going forward. So. That's it. I can say. Marvin, what are your early impressions of the Rams? What do you think of the Rams? Yeah, I mean, they're a good team. They're good physical team. I got a new lot of new guys up front. I think that's kind of where their strong suit is. Kind of a little different to Buffalo. Come over to a little match coverage. So I'm excited to go against them. Personally, when the belts take you one of my opportunities. Wasn't many of them. Wasn't many of them. So I thought maybe I'm just what you think versus just playing. You know, not getting a preseason game. I changed to the first three season. It was definitely, definitely thinking a lot out there. And I think I'll come with reps. I think to think and less and just going out there and playing. Definitely come with reps. And it's something you're on. You better at. But I think definitely say I was thinking a lot out there. Is there anything you can do to prove that that's from coverage? Anything you can do to the past? You're going to fix that a lot. Yeah, I mean, you just got to team you get open for yourself.

1:19:01Making yourself available. And when the ball does, can you make it into play? I'm just taking you away. That means other guys are having a chance to get open. So that's how kind of high it is. You know, long versus a season of offense. That's the best thing for us. They're kind of going to be with Tyler. Is this something that comes pretty quickly out of new games? Or something like that? Months. Hopefully sooner or later, I think. I'm looking to see. We'll see. I don't think we're in a bad place right now at all. Obviously, I don't really think that. But just a live rep. So we'll continue to grow and show. The only thing and how I believe maybe different than somebody else may believe. I like to practice at least like the legal positivity. You know, I mean, so. But he, the energy, I would be on just, I would like to. So I was kind of the goal of. I was on the team captain, like specifically. I was on the captain of high school. I wasn't a captain of college.

1:20:01But I want to make a joke on high school. So I feel like I'm not going to be a captain. So I think that I felt. But that would be awesome. But you know, the happens. I'd be great. But not either way. I want to assume a role as a captain from. The perspective of guys on the visual world. And get back in that way. Yeah, I mean, I can't say that. I mean, I guess the biggest thing is that I felt like how. You used to move past. But it didn't take just the first day. LTAs and took. Training and left and right. Once this season ended because I know what was going to be shared. So it's like a lot of. I'm not. Gramps. Just to give back to feeling like myself for what they want to. And then I hope, firstly, but now like today specifically just changing some small things with my feet. I've been talking about the long coach.

1:21:01I've some things I can do my feet to get to that. To sell my traditional angle that I love to sit on. I thought I felt. I thought I felt great already. I felt even better. I'm starting to work. I feel like I'm going to be able to do my feet back. I like the right side. And I'm on the left side. So I'm on the right side. I mean, obviously I feel like in the league whether I left or right, you're still going against Premier guys. So obviously, you have high expectations for your left and right tackle. But there's definitely like the level of energy and like the expectation is definitely taking the human stuff. Because now, tonight, the blind side. That's the, that's the tackle world. So, so yeah, I would say in terms of communication as far as this even outside of the facility, just stuff like that, like really creating that, the tackle quarterback, bond even more off the field, I think has been something that's even cool. I got a text one day.

1:22:01And I said, hey, you put it left. I was like, you know, yeah, I've been training both. I've been training both. And I, I asked after the season, they're like, honestly, you know, we'll talk to you if something season. And I just got a text one, depending on how this was with the free agency. Then, so I was like, you know what? I had an old season right tackle. So, if I get the word, I'm going, I'm standing right tackle. I'll do what I did before I'm doing that. But I saw, I was like, I might as well as train the left tackle now. As if I'm going to be left tackle. And I'd rather do that than train all the right time with the call. I'd do the left tackle. I'm like, who? I didn't switch my feet yet. You know what I mean? So, I'm like, let me just prepare an advance. I'll say, yeah, let's go. You know? I think occasionally, on third down, there would be a lot of twists. I was just not like, it's an automatic outcome. And I think that was my mindset for like the first half of the season. Like, I didn't have to go into again with some pros. Like, oh my gosh, they did that. I kind of figured, like, okay, like, this is, this is the type of rush I'm going to get.

1:23:03This is how this guy usually rushes. If I get the vibe, this is how the ends, like, the rush, you know, tackles that. You know, first year guys, we got the premier patch on. Already, you know, what it was going to be. Already, you know, we'll be every stunt. And honestly, just knowing that's kind of an advantage to, so you're not, you're not, you're not, oh, they brought the twist on my side again. It was never air-doll, but they come up and I was like, three plays in a row. Two minutes, I do that, it wasn't going to happen. You know what I mean? I'm watching more and everybody else, and you really, you know, it goes out there occasionally. I was like, you know, he's going to pick me. You know what I mean? So, that effect, that's kind of, it's also kind of an advantage in a way. But it's also exciting, like, okay, I'm going to get the hardest look. You know, those are real, real reps, you know, the things. Really out on our way to kind of process. And I was like, hey, when I tell me, let me know about, I'm just going to train it. I was training all left.

1:24:04To the TAs, I guess, if I didn't hear anything about the TAs, I came in like, so, you know what I mean? Because just like, I'm cool with training, both continuing. I would have been cool with training both continually, but I feel like anybody, any position, will feel like, okay, like, you want to as soon as possible, give your feet kind of settled in, your hips settled in, your hands, so then, certain kind of that. Would have been harder to hit, you work both, or how to use. No, you know. But, they're definitely, but in terms of the development, they're definitely a lot faster, they're staying on one side. But I think having that week that we had the transitional seasons over, you've been like, it was fun. You know, look, I'm trying to get up, put up my mind and wake things out of town right now, but when it comes back, I'm showing them to the other house. So I've got a house that's not too far from, so I told them, I got that house, like, I got a yellow outside.

1:25:04DJ. You know what I mean? Yeah. That doesn't have any stock or anything. Doesn't mean anything, so we're at the play on Friday, and that's really all that matters. We're going to take two more from Zoom before turning it back. Our first one's going to come from Stephen from Cleveland.com. Go ahead. It's the fun, I'm sorry. Caleb, we've seen, you were talking about the Ohio State Office, the success that they've had. Obviously, Jeremiah has been a big part of that. What's it been like this year going against him in practice, and, you know, after doing that, does it surprise you at all to see him having the success he's had as a freshman? No, it doesn't bring any surprises. It was pretty, pretty easy to see the talent that he has and the blessings that God has put on his plate. It's always a challenge going against Jeremiah and other receivers in Mecca and Cornell in practice, and even guys like Brandon and his impression Rogers, they do a great job bringing looks for the defense and create a lot of obstacles.

1:26:12Our final question from Zoom is going to come from Dan Hope. Go ahead, Dan. Caleb, you've been had a lot of success against you guys when you played him at Alabama last year. Just what do you remember from going up against him last year and what can you learn from that game? It's really smart quarterback knows how to operate their offense, push the ball in the right places, and then Coach Narkeeson does a great job putting him in positions to win. Jerry, back to you. Thank you, Rob Aller. Columbus, this match, Caleb, JT and Jack, playing opposite sides, and they is opposite off the field as they are on in terms of personality and just the people they are. They are opposite, but they are also one of the closest people I know. They have spent a lot of time together. They have come from different sides of the country, so they are different people for sure, but they are both really great people and really great men. I'm sorry, I respect both of them. How did you do that?

1:27:19I'm not going to do that. I'm sorry, I'm not going to do that. It's about Austin Warren, podcast. Throughout the season, we would always see you on Wednesday nights, you and Latham would be some of the last people off the field. Are the things that you are working on after a practice always the same? Is it a routine? What are the things that you are hoping to get out of those extra moments after practice? It's a routine, pretty much, the keys that we need to go into the game with, and then also changes week to week on based on what our jobs are going to put us into doing. Every week we go through the same things and then we add certain things that we do for the team that we play is going to ask us to accomplish. Bill, we are going to ask you a question. Bill, we have been on this program for a long time. I already got one. Oh, okay. Joey Gopman called us this time. When? What do they do well in those spots and what do you think you guys in those moments with Quinn?

1:28:19They do a really good job with I-Candy. It creates a lot of challenges for defense in order to see if it's runner pass and see, because that's when they are going to take their shots too as well. So really just having great eye discipline, seeing the line and seeing what it's telling us. So that's what it does. Deep right, Nick Walker, Letterman, roll. Hey, you guys had a pretty good game plan for Tyler Warren. You guys played him. You guys have another Texas weather good tied in and Gunnar Kahn. What do you guys have to do to limit him and what do you think about his game? He's a really good player. He makes a lot of plays and he has a lot of receiving yards this year. So really just do the same thing we've done all year. Just be disciplined in our responsibilities. And if you're on them, you got to make the play when it comes. Right, one of the Mandarin Guilders. Playman.com. When you look at their receivers, it's kind of a whole, you know, they spread the ball around since a lot of what stands out about the way they can spread the ball around those different guys. A lot of really good athletes.

1:29:20I play with Isaiah Bond, last year, who's a really great receiver. A lot of speed. And then all their receivers have made a lot of plays. So I mean, everybody has to be on their peasy cues if we're going to stop them and have a do a really good job. Front row here, Tim May, Letterman Row. Yeah, Kel, you moved up here and I don't have to tell you when you moved it basically a year ago. And so it was a little bit of a leap of faith because you know how many athletes are on this team, good athletes and stuff. But when did you really feel this defense come into its own? And then then pass that, man, watching in the Rose Bowl, your recognition of what was coming seemed to be on point. Did it feel like that? I mean, you personally. I think the defense has played really well throughout the season. I think we've had games where we played better and games where we haven't put it all together. But I think that's how all defenses are. So I can't say there's a certain moment where I think we put it together.

1:30:21But what's your second part of your question? You seem really on point against Oregon about recognizing what was coming. You were really active out there directing and things like that. Did it feel like that, I guess? I feel like, as Luke said earlier, the preparation that we put in goes into that and just feeling comfortable and what we're doing, comfortable and what we're seeing with the other teams. I feel like that allows us to play fast and me and Laketon to communicate to everybody else. Did I miss anyone's questions here? Steve, how long in 24 seconds? Yeah, Caleb. You came to Ohio State to play for National Championship. And there were a lot of ups and downs throughout the season. Just to be in this position, the last four teams still live. You feel validated by that. Did you always have faith that this is how it was going to turn out? I came to Ohio State to become a better player and to help the team be as good as it can be. Not to win a national championship. Like that wasn't the only goal for me coming here.

1:31:23I really just wanted to be in the team and be with the brotherhood. But it's a great feeling being in the final four and being with the team and everything that comes with that. But it's a blessing to be here. And one final question, Bill, where Ben wants to come us this time? Yeah, I did want to follow up. When I talked to you at the back of the game, you said when they scored their first and second touchdown, you were really hot on the sidelines. What was your message to the team? You know, that's a good offense. They're going to score against most teams. Why were you so hot? Really just because we didn't execute which let them score. So we've done that a lot. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all-new drink lineup at McDonald's. I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's. But the new drink lineup, I mean, it takes things to another level. They've got delicious caffeinated refresher like the strawberry watermelon refresher crafted sodas. Like the Spriteberry Blast. And now the all-new Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer.

1:32:25We're talking about a total game changer made with Red Bull. It's mixed with blue raspberry flavor and topped with freeze-dried dragon fruit. Wow. McDonald's has given us a refreshing new boost for your day. And the Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer is arriving just as you're heading back to the dorms for the fall semester. It's got a boost of energy and a kick of flavor when you need it the most. You know, powering through those lectures and studying sessions, you're gonna need it. Kicking the afternoon slump or rallying for the weekend. Try one of the many new drinks like the Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer, also available with Red Bull Zero. Now at McDonald's. I love days like these at the pool. But my moderate to severe plaques rise is can sometimes take me out of the moment. I'm ready to make a splash with clear skin thanks to SkyRizzy, RisenKizmabRizzah. SkyRizzy is a prescription only injection for adults who are candidates for systemic or phototherapy. At four months, most people saw 90 percent clear skin when measured from head to toe.

1:33:25And many were even 100 percent plaque free. People also saw significant improvement in psoriasis symptoms of pain, redness, itching and burning. Don't use if allergic to SkyRizzy, serious allergic reactions, increased infections, or lower ability to fight that may occur. Before treatment, get checked for infections and tuberculosis. Tell your doctor about any flu-like symptoms or vaccines. Now there's nothing on my skin thanks to SkyRizzy and that means everything. Ask your doctor about SkyRizzy. The number one dermatologist prescribed biologic insurisus. Visit SkyRizzy.com or call 1-866 SkyRizzy to learn more. The ocean moves us. Whether that's surfing a wave or taking in an inspiring view.

So we got to make the plays when they come and get our competitive excellence as Coach Dases. Make the play where your number's called. Caleb, thank you very much. I feel like they're definitely picking up quick. I mean I was in their shoes one time and I had Zach Harrison, Javonte and Tyler Freidel in front of me. So I feel like I'm just trying to be one of those peers that they work for me and kind of just giving them the steps to get there. And I feel like they're definitely picking up quick and they're definitely going to be one of the great rushmen. So I think Coach Jackson talked about it. JT and Jack probably don't need it. It's on a day of experience. Maybe that's the real opportunity for me to do a lot of things. Is there a difference in the workload because you've been getting through Apple Camp pretty much the last couple? I feel like all the camps I've definitely gotten a big course learned and I've left that side.

1:35:25I asked Coach Jay for it. I love getting more reps because I just like protecting my craft. So I mean some people may not need it. Some people need it but I mean I just like to give you as many reps as I can. And I feel like I'm just being on that course learned. So I work on it right now. I mean for me it's always just kind of getting my little details perfectly like my steps, my footing. It's kind of just perfecting my toolbox is what we call it and my craft and just trying to be a... It's like whenever you get your place what kind of difference. Yeah, definitely just getting stronger faster, everything all they have above. But one of my big things is being a leader and kind of just not trying to look still look up to Jack and JT and kind of have my own kind of leadership and be able to bring people into. So I feel like I kind of have a lot of leaders on the D line at the D in position. So we kind of all kind of just kind of talk about what you're doing. It's definitely a tough challenge to shoot these together. I hope it's up to you guys to play with them all.

1:36:26You know, if you're on the team, just go ahead and try to put the best you like. So you need to just guys, how's that transition going to be? It's been competitive and we love it. We all competitive people, we all love to push each other. And I feel like the bringing the best side of all is, we all just kind of bouncing off each other and seeing what one person does and we kind of build it into our toolbox and we all kind of just kind of build one great big one. Hey, do you remember last year when you got the shot at full banking work? And the day before two that I did at Duke Coach's team, I had a good come up out. Because you heard Jack saw your floppy. Oh yeah. So I definitely did it in high school. I was pulled back and a little bit of tidying. So I feel like it kind of saw what I could do there in Coach Wilson. Honestly, he loved watching it too before he left. And he felt like he planned that seed and Coach Day's head and Coach Day kind of just went for it and tried to do the best I could to do it. Is that continuing now? I mean, do anything in the spring? New playbook. I did not know yet. I haven't got that far. So you haven't got that far?

1:37:27How tough is that for you? You're looking trackable. I like to think myself as a football player. I can really play any position on the field you need me to. Just give me a weaker two to learn it and kind of perfect it and I'll try to do my best for you. Kid Jack, you're the same thing. Oh yeah. Well, what about you? Roughly, that's what I'm talking about. Okay, he's talking to Coach Johnson on Tuesday about some of the conversations and sort of saw you and got out to have some conversations after JT and Jack decided to contact. Just got to win into those from your perspective and how did that help you maybe get the right mindset against community in spring? Definitely kind of seeing it all the way through. I feel like people kind of just see what happened and they don't know everything that goes into it. How long the season is now. What you got to do to prepare for and what happened and all that time from here to then. So I feel like we definitely just coached in me kind of connected. And maybe we kind of just talked man-to-man and he kind of just sat straight to me and I feel like we kind of both are going on. Right, right. And we know we're making it. Making each other better every day.

1:38:27We got the four best DNs, five best DNs, honestly, in the College Football. And we're going to be one of the best DLines in College Football. But you feel like a better player today than you were in this season. I feel like I've taken big steps in my roles of just being responsible and being more of a leader and kind of stepping up and taking a step to kind of get out there more on the team and kind of bring people in and I feel like we're kind of helping out more. How do you record head around the cost of 17th JFC? Is that sound? I mean, it sounds bizarre, but I mean the season goes by so fast already. So when you're kind of like week 10 and you're like wow it's already week 10. So now it's kind of gives you more time to kind of enjoy it and kind of savor it because you've come already here for a feeling of refreshments. But you don't want to spend all your powder for the first month of the year, right? I mean, there is a lot of pace yourself there. I mean, there is a mindset there. Definitely, definitely going to have the mental stability to handle all those weeks and all those practices.

1:39:27How much has Larry talked to you guys around the game? Last question right here. 2016, 2017, 4 NFL 2 Finch Awards all in the same location. How much does he talk to about that? I mean, he doesn't have to talk about it. We know about it. We've seen it every day. We watch the film. We see them all working together. We know what it could be. We know we could become. So we know we're at the same place at the right time. And God wanted us to be here. And He knew we wanted us all to come together and kind of play together and be able to bounce off and just perfect our craft together. And I feel like we all are just great individuals and we come together at some special. Great. Doing it? What were the deliberations? I'm surprised it's even a conversation. It should always be live. Let's tell you. Tell you. Tell you play football. So obviously there's a proximity to the season, which is a little reckless, I understand that. But in spring, when you're competing for jobs, I mean, if I'm a quarterback, I'm messing to be live. So I can show him how I'm different than, you know, anyone that can't be live. You know what I mean? You're always trying to find an edge.

1:40:27And if you're never fully live, I don't think you fully give guys opportunity to be who they want to be or who they can be. So that being said, you know, I will cast my vote. But that will not be my final decision on that. But I will cast my vote. The guys that hang on to the well, it was good for all parties involved. And more we can do that, the better, but I'm sure that is coming to a close here very quickly. So. That Murphy 24-7. Right. General Maya off the field. We saw after practice on this Saturday that the mob that came to get autographs and things. When you're working with him on all these things you're talking about, but also dealing with the life of being one of the biggest names in college football, how do you help mentor him in that aspect? Yeah, I mean, it's a blessing to be able to be in a position where, you know, can provide insight or I wouldn't say recommendations, but just give perspective.

1:41:28Well, he chooses to receive the perspective or not one and not. I mean, he always does, but which is fine. But to be in that position is really humbling. That being said, he does a really good job on his own. He doesn't need to check that on too much. He's really done a great job. Again, the way he was raised in his morals and humble would always sign and taking pictures. I'm always trying to be the bad guy for him because he's not going to be and just says again more about his character. But he's not the only guy. Any guy would kind of do that. We have a group full of awesome young guys, but Jeremiah has done a great job with it. He's handling it and it's definitely growing at an exponential rate to say the least. But I think he's built for it and he's been handled at a high level. But those around him were trying to help him out a little bit. What made Queen Seed the first freshman to do this black striker issue? Yeah, I mean, that's a good question.

1:42:30I think that, frankly, I'm not really fully involved with that. So that can be, but I wasn't. I think that people on the outside, whether it be defense or even coach day or anybody brought it to my attention, we're just going about practice and that's our expectation to make plays, not make mistakes. And he was starting to make a lot of plays consistently. I think the consistent level that he's been as a person, being on time and doing his job description on each play and the ball is coming your way and making some big plays. And it starts being seen by your peers. And your peers are asking for it. They start barking, getting a strike off all those kinds of things. That's the ultimate sign of respect, I think, with your peers. You know, go to your bat. And he's not going for his bat. No one else. People are bringing it to your position coach. I think it speaks volumes of the general respect that you're earning through the process. So I think it's something like that happened.

1:43:31And, you know, as well as they're based on his peers and the other coaches. Step on creation. Cleveland.com. Ryan Day was talking about how impressed he's been this spring with Austin Servo. All that he's been able to do and Tyler Bohn was talking last week about the importance of the cross-training and all that that goes into that. Just how much have you seen Austin benefit from this spring and everywhere that he's been and helping with peace. Do you think he's going to be regardless of where he fits on this offensive line? Yeah, I think Austin's been awesome. I mean, he literally, you know, what was he saying, he played every spot, every position. We just move around, you know, and handles it. You know, he's one of those guys I feel like you watch film over and over again day after day. His name never really gets brought up, you know, in a good way. Like he on the other line, your name gets brought up when, usually not going as well, you know. I mean, they're literally at the point of the attack on every single play. So there's nowhere to hide. And so, but Austin, when his name gets brought up, he's like, man, that was a good job. A good job. Pass off that combo. Whatever. It's always positive.

1:44:31And, uh, been really impressed with him. He started in the winter. Did a great job through the winter. Again, continuing to build a respect for his peers. And then he's going to a good job, really good job just being a very consistent two spring. Are you left, Jeff Gilbert? Press pros. Brian, since you've been working more with the whole offense, when it comes to quarterback play, what has grown in your, I don't know, appreciation in that position and what those guys have to do and go through? What do you think more about those guys versus maybe what you thought before is just a wide receiver guy? Yeah, I mean, I mean, there's no just a wide receiver guy. If you are just a wide receiver guy, you won't be a very later on. It's all about, it's all about quarterback play, you know. So I think in that same world, though, to the point is that, you know, in order to be a great receiver or, you know, receiver guy, whatever you want to call it, there's only one page, just a quarterbacks page. So everything is based off them. There, whether they're progression, they're timing, the stresses they have is what we're trying to minimize.

1:45:32So if you don't fully understand the quarterback play, it's hard to maximize receiver play, I think. You know, that being said, yeah, I mean, I'm still always learning. You know, I think that I can't say anything's jumped out massively right now. But I would say that, you know, I guess I would say the preparation level, I mean, the what is required to execute and play at a high level, it's just not capable in the a lot of time, right? I mean, there's only so much time where I'll be with players. If you're not willing to spend, you know, your own time getting prepared for practice to be, to maximize one's ability, there's a good chance you're not going to maximize your ability. So, you know, in other positions, I mean, the online same thing, I mean, receiver play sometimes can, you know, get away from it. We do a great job studying and being in the room extra for sure. But the requirement of a quarterback to know, the fixed protections, the BR run game coordinator based on the calls, you know, to get us in different checks.

1:46:34I mean, there's so much thing you know. And frankly, the, you know, the online is good as the quarterback, the receiver's line is good as the quarterback. They're often silly as the quarterback and it's our responsibility to put guys in position to maximize what they're capable of maximizing. But their inability to notice that they can just spend extra time outside the a lot of time, I think is critical. And the amount that it takes, I guess that was maybe a little naive to, but the guys are doing a great job doing it. And just a couple more coaches got a meeting, Rob Aller, Columbus Dispatch. Yeah, Brian, you know, you guys reached the mount top, you got a banner out there, national champs. I think keep these guys grounded, being in the moment, looking ahead, not back. Are you tougher on them? Because, no, I think that. I mean, I think we have a lot of guys, you know what? I think it's understanding that we were trying to build the map to get to where you wanted to get to. But now that we have the map, doesn't mean we've traveled the path.

1:47:36So like we know what it looks like, the guys that are here know what it's supposed to look like. The guys before us, said unbelievable example, how to get to where you want to get to. So the focus is on trying to replicate what they just did and how they operated. Can't say we've done that right now. So it's very easy to stay motivating because they already know it's not good enough, frankly. And so the last thing they want to do is put in a ton of effort and then not reach their goals. So motivation, I don't think is needed. I think there is a catching up of those and maybe aren't quite sure what it takes, you know. And, but overall, motivation is not what we've needed. A clarity of message is definitely what we've been focused on. And I think the message is being received. So not concerned about motivation and the looking back, if you will. I think everyone's pretty pretty focused on being forward and knowing we haven't accomplished anything. Steve, please go ahead. Who would you say is the leader of your wide receiver?

1:48:37Right now. I would say, Colonel Tate, Brennan-Annis, probably done the most outspoken, you know, in the room. Yeah, I would say they're doing a good job. Those are probably the two guys that would jump out of my room. Yep. I mean, because Brennan, he's been a vocal. Obviously, Colonel taking on that role, more and being more vocal. He's a good football player. Obviously, this thing is going to do that. But that process for him and becoming a more vocal leader took for you to say that on him. What was the question? Colonel, what do you think the growth of it? Yeah, I mean, he's, I think he's pulled guys aside. You know, have one-on-one conversations with him. He's locked in, you know, just, I think he saw the impact that I met him made in the role he played. And to think that we're going to lose that and then be a better group, probably doesn't mathematically make sense to him. So someone's got to step up in that role. And one, everyone respects him too. He knows he's capable of it. And it's just the desire and the appreciation, I think, to be at the table now, the older head.

1:49:41And appreciate the way I met him, probably went about his business. And so he probably valued that, appreciated that. And he's just being assured we still have that. Final question. Bill, we're better with the Columbus Dispatch. Could you assess the running back room? I think it's pretty much assumed. Both those running backs, C.J. and James think that's hand-in-system is probably the way you're going to go again. Anything to see? How is it working? And do you see third and maybe fourth guys up in the mirror? I think that, you know, in college football, we're in a football. Any football, really, you've got to have depth in the running back room. I think that it's very apparent in the NFL. It's usually a two-back system, you know, very inferiorly, is it one guy. But in college, I think we saw the benefit of that last year. The ability to compliment each other is really important. And the ability for us to identify what they do great and put them in good positions to be what they are. What's our best at, I should say, is really important as a coaching staff. I've been very impressed with even the younger guys, Sam and Bo,

1:50:44and the way they've come along, the consistency, so what you're chasing, right? You're always able to. That's why you're here. But how often you do it ultimately dictates how much you play. So, but overall, I think locks been on them. They don't understand the standard in in pass pro and not being a guy. We got to sell them out because you can't pass protect. So, we were blessed, especially with Trey last year in Quenchon. But no, these guys have done a good job. They're competing. They've been very coachable. No, it's very, it's shown a blog on film. But yeah, I mean, it's always hard on backs. I mean, every opportunity you get to go live and break tackles really gives you the most feedback on what these guys are capable of. If you're just playing tag out there, you never get any art. At least you shouldn't. But the running backs on contact days have done a good job. James has done a really good job growing. Really excited about him. Everyone's really excited about him and CJ. So, I think ultimately, how good will the group be?

1:51:45It's probably based on the bottom horizon. You're going to have some guys at the top, but where's the floor? And so, I think Bo and Sam has done a really good job. And maybe some more guys to get healthy, and more guys on campus, but very encouraged. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe. And Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all-new drink lineup at McDonald's. I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's. But the new drink lineup, I mean, it takes things to another level. They've got delicious caffeinated refreshers like the strawberry watermelon refresher, crafted sodas, like the Spriteberry Blast, and now the all-new Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer. We're talking about a total game changer made with Red Bull. It's mixed with blue raspberry flavor and topped with freeze-dried dragon fruit. Oh. McDonald's has given us a refreshing new boost for your day. And the Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer is arriving just as you're heading back to the dorms for the fall semester.

1:52:50It's got a boost of energy and a kick of flavor when you need it the most. You know, powering through those lectures and studying sessions, you're gonna need it. Kicking the afternoon slump or rallying for the weekend. Try one of the many new drinks like the Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer, also available with Red Bull Zero. Now at McDonald's. I love days like these at the pool, but my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis can sometimes take me out of the moment. I'm ready to make a splash with clear skin thanks to SkyRizzy, RisenKizmabRizza. SkyRizzy is a prescription-only injection for adults who are candidates for systemic or phototherapy. At four months, most people saw 90% clear skin when measured from head to toe, and many were even 100% plaque-free. People also saw significant improvement in psoriasis symptoms of pain, redness, itching, and burning. Don't use if allergic to SkyRizzy, serious allergic reactions, increased infections, or lower ability to fight that may occur. Before treatment, get checked for infections and tuberculosis. Tell your doctor about any flu-like symptoms or vaccines.

1:53:50Now there's nothing on my skin thanks to SkyRizzy, and that means everything. Ask your doctor about SkyRizzy. Number one dermatologist prescribed biologic psoriasis. Visit SkyRizzy.com or call 1-866 SkyRizzy to learn more. The ocean delights us as playful otters restore coastal kill for us. The ocean teaches us how our choices impact even the deepest places. The ocean connects us. Visit monorebeacquarium.org slash connects. And you saw him improve. And then McLean, I think, is a great plus. I mean, he is a guy that has football intelligence. He's picked it up. He's kind of of of those incoming freshmen who still should be in high school. He's a guy I think you're going to point to, and you can see right now he's going to be a player. Over to the right, Austin Ward, the podcast. What was a healthy Mitchell Melton?

1:54:50How does he fit in for your defense? What does he bring to it? Yeah, he's, you know, Mitch is that combination player, you know, in our four down. You know, he's a guy that can do a lot of things, drop, fold in there and make plays. You see some of that all the time. Really athletic, you know, we're kind of loaded at that end position. So he's going to play there. But like I said last year, we haven't needed it, but he's a guy you would point to along with CJ Hicks, you know, for the long season. People get injured. You get a little light inside. It's always hard on the defensive tackles. But if you're going to play with three ends, you know, that's Mitch is a guy who definitely can do all that. Over to the left, Joey Kaufman, Columbus, dispatch. Jim, you've talked about this before, but I think in past years where you're going up against a really talented receiver group offense to encourage your players to, it's not okay if they give up to the play and to go nearly almost the first half.

1:55:57Today where you, the offense didn't get in the end zone until the late in the second half just. And you guys have guys down the second area. Just what did you think of that sort of trend and how it's evolved in the way you guys almost shut them out of the first half? Yeah, I think it's become, you know, an expectation now. You know, our DB's, you know, our BIA, Best in America, we led the country in past defense. I think there was 96 when I got here and it was number one last year. So they've taken that spirit. So it's a competitive spirit. It's an expectation now. It doesn't matter who we're going against. It's, it's, they view it as a standard. So that was good to see in the first, first half. Over to the right Spencer Holbrook, Vladimir and Roll. Jim, we've talked about safety changing the way that you play defense in the Leo and the linebackers, but how much does having the depth that you guys have a defensive tackle change the way that you can do things defensively?

1:56:59Yeah, I mean, you're going to play to your strengths, you know, and that's, that's my job is to what do we have and what do we do best? And when you have defensive tackles, I've said it before, it helped our defense so much last year. When you have defensive tackles that actually make tackles, which is what we have right now, it changes the way you call a game. You know, it certainly helps you be in better shape on explosive plays on the back end. You don't have to do a whole lot to help those guys out because they're making tackles. So you got to go, you got to go with that, you know, you got to let those guys play and, and they're good. So you can't get too far away from the scheme of having those defensive tackles make place because they're doing it and it works. Over to the left, Tony Gurdman, Buckeye Huddl. Jim Ryan talked about the quarterback run being more of a thing with the offense here during the season. How much of when you're facing a team like that, how much does that impact your day to day throughout the week preparing for that?

1:58:04Yeah, it's a ton, you know, it, I think it changes everything you do on defense. You see it everywhere from the NFL on down if you have a quarterback who can make plays with his feet. Your scheme better be designed that, you know, to, to take that away into account for it. So it changes the way you look at everything when you're game planning. Thank you, Donovan. Over here to the right, Tim May, the Tim May podcast. Yeah, Jim, you might be the interviewer when I asked Ryan about just, for example, Calvin Simpson Hunt, but the corner seemed to be playing almost with the chip owner shelter to a certain extent. I mean, Davis and Nick, but no, and took the day personally. It looked like you know, to make us some of the height going into the game. But what, what do you see from that group in particular that Buies you going into this off season? Yeah, when you can, when you have corners that you can count on, again, it's just like having defensive tackles in the run game. When you have corners, you can count on that are going to compete all the time, no matter what the situation is.

1:59:06And we've developed that again, it changes the way you call the entire game. I mean, you, you're able to leave those guys on an island. You're able to switch out coverages and they know what they're doing and they take great pride in it. So having those guys out there in the development, it's a big deal. It really is. And it's not jumping into a picture of the board. I just came in late back here. I mean, he's, he did come in late and you know, he compete, he's one of those guys that just competes every day, doesn't say much. You know, he's trying to live up to the standard of the other guys and you, you see him coming along. You know, you see him step by step coming along and, and you know, put him in a, you know, competitive atmosphere, same step up. That's a great sign. And final question for coach Knowles, Dan Hope, 11 Warriors. You mentioned CJ Hicks a few minutes ago. Have you seen him take the strides you need to see the spring to trust him as a guy who could be a potential starter on his defense?

2:00:08Yes, I mean, I think CJ has shown that he has talent and I think it's my job to put him in the best situations for him because he can be a force. You know, he's much better when he's bloodsaying or he's directed because he's able to use his athletic ability, but he has certainly shown that he's going to be able to help his defense coach. Thank you very much for your time. All right. And we will bring offensive coordinator and quarterback coach Chip Kelly to the podium now. We'll open up the questions over to the left bill Rebenowitz Columbus dispatch. Chip, what are your just general impressions of the offense coming out of spring, especially quarterback? Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all new drink lineup at McDonald's. I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's, but the new drink lineup.

2:01:11I mean, it takes things to another level. They've got delicious caffeinated refresher's like the strawberry watermelon refresher crafted sodas. Like the spriteberry blasts and now the all new red bull dragonberry energizer. We're talking about a total game changer made with red bull. That's mixed with blue raspberry flavor and topped with freeze dried dragon fruit. McDonald's has given us a refreshing new boost for your day.

We'll look at all 15 so I think you know this day is is a big part of it. You know because it was the first time they were going to play. Some of those guys that were going to play in front of a crowd. And that was an amazing crowd. You know you get 80,000 for spring game. You can see some of the young guys kind of looking around like wow this is different than the indoor. But that's what they have to get ready to play it. So we got better from practice 1 to practice 15. You know it's still an evaluation through the whole process but it's not something in the players though too that we're not making a decision walking off the field today saying hey this is the direction that we're going in. We'll be very authentic and look through everything and make sure that we get a really good feel for what it all looks like and then who will best move this offense. That's what our decision is going to be. I do I think we got a lot of guys there. That part's tough. I think because you got it. There's guys that deserve reps. You know when they're all competing for it.

2:04:26Sometimes you like to be sometimes when you had a guy who was in the initial start of well he's going to get the bulk of the reps to get them better but they capitalize on we really rolled them. You know if you were at some of our screen practices you're watching all those guys rotate and rotate out. And as we talk about all the time you know the old adges is don't count your reps make your reps count. You know when we'll put it all together and really come up with you know which guy do we really feel is going to make going to help us move this offensively. Over to the far right bill land is the podcast Kings of the North. Hey Chip you some of me first talked to you that the the basis of a lot of your success running the football just kind of figuring out what your guys do best and then leading into that over 15 practices now how good of a field do you think you have for that and then what did the next few months look like as you try to piece that all together. Really good question. It's interesting because the one thing that I think sometimes makes tough and evaluation is what a good front we want to get. So for 15 practices those guys on the other side of the ball were pain you know Jack and JT and Tileek and those guys but I know come fall there's not going to be anybody more happy that we have those guys on the defensive side of the ball because of what they can do so.

2:05:37I think we'll have to really evaluate that what we're going to what we're not what we got to get better and what we got to work on but I think the work we got against such a quality defense was really key for us. Over to the far left Nathan Barrett Cleveland dot com. So you're going this time came out of the spring with still a lot of question marks about the offensive line and even I guess that last season came out with question marks. What have you seen that progress in the time that you've been here and what's your confidence level that that offensive line is going to allow this offense to do everything it wants to do this fall. Yeah I mean I've been here short amount of time so I didn't know I really don't have anything to compare it to so I kind of tabula rassa come in with a blank slate and just observe it. I think we're really athletic. I think Donnie and Seth and those guys inside are really smart and really intelligent. They allow you to be able to make adjustments in game. Just tucking football with some of those guys it's like well these guys are wired the right way and a lot of those guys have played a lot of football so they can bank on their experience there.

2:06:37You know I think we we've got about four guys that have played significant amount of snaps and we got to make sure we can find out who the fifth guy is but that's similar to where the quarterback spot is I think. And I also think of the offensive line you you're not going to play a 16-17 game season and just play with five guys you know you really have to develop your depth there. There's going to be a number two center that's going to play a lot of football it's going to be a number two guard whether it's on either side of the ball there's going to be a third tackle I think you're going to get tested especially with this new in this new playoff format you really have to think that way so. You know you're not looking for five starters you're really looking for 10 starters because you're going to have to you're going to have to probably play 10 guys to get when you get through a 16-17 game season. Over to the right Austin Ward the podcast. I think it was the first play of the game the T formation and then the reverse center spin move with Will Howard. What's the inspiration for that package and that sort of wrinkle with the quarterback. Mr. Hayes. There's a there's a looming figure around this whole program you know we get to go to work every day and the Woody Hayes athletic center so.

2:07:37It was good enough for Woody we're going to stay with we're going to do it we ran some last year I think we took 21 snaps at UCLA and T. We've been a short yardage formation for us and we've done some different things with it but. I also I think our players had a lot of fun you know practicing that and doing some different things so. It's a small part of our offense you know we will not be in the T 21 times in one game but you know we may get it in some short yardage situations and I think it's come back there's a lot of schools right now that. I'm starting to do that you know it's really just you're trying to you know you got a half a yard to get you know you're trying to get your big guys in the game and. I think we use three tight ends and and two running backs in our formation today with Packard being the full back in that situation so. There's a lot of different things you can do in short yardage but. A little bit of a tribute to coach coach Hayes and and what he means to this program. Joey Kaufman Columbus dispatch over to the left chip as you look back now you've been here two months 15 spring practices or something you feel best about what you've been able to accomplish with this offense.

2:08:38Well I haven't accomplished anything because I didn't take a snap but. I think the most impressive things since I've been here is how close close this football team is. You know some programs talk about the brother this is really brotherhood our practices as we talked about how good our defense is it's they're highly competitive but they're not combative and those guys. Hey this is Kevin this is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas this episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all new drink lineup at McDonald's I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's but the new drink lineup I mean it takes things to another level they've got delicious caffeinated refreshers like the strawberry watermelon refresher crafted sodas like the sprite berry blasts and now the all new red bull dragonberry energizer we're talking about a total game changer made with red bull that's mixed with blue raspberry flavor and topped with freeze dried dragon fruit McDonald's has given us a refreshing new boost for your day and the red bull dragonberry energizer is arriving just as you're heading back to the dorms for the fall semester.

Really work very well together both the old line of the D line the secondary receivers. Competition is the best there is in the country you know and that makes you better but I think sometimes competition. You know guys can lash out and gets really combative and then all of a sudden the fight breaks out and the fight breaks out and we're trying to accomplish and get footballed on but I think the way these guys cooperating work together as a group. And I think you're going to need the closest team and the most connected teams on the ones that win over to the right here Andy Baxter letter mineral.

2:11:48She obviously there's been a lot of talk about Jeremiah but a mecca is the big return in the group he kind of reminded everyone what he can do today what's it been like working with him and what kind of weapon can you be for you guys. Good point and a mecca has reminded me and the other 14 practice sessions of what he can do special player you know and and J. J. is a really talented player also but you know I think I think all of the whole group. Carnell tape it's really good things watching him this spring in for all of them you know I mentioned with the offensive line I I came in with the blank slate and I had no opinions formed. Not that really just why I didn't just observe them but you know that I think that white receiver is really special and I think there's a bunch of guys in there and again you have to play multiple multiple games after the regular season is over. You're going to make sure you're going to need depth like that and the fact that it's you feel a little bit comfortable right now that we got some guys there that can make some plays on the perimeter and that really dictates how people are going to defend you know so. You got a couple really good running back you know so really going to load the box you really going to load the box and leave those guys in one on one coverage well then it's the quarterbacks responsibility to decipher that and get the ball of those guys so.

2:12:57Or do they at least a double coverage a list of double coverage and now it's a little bit lighter box and you can run the ball so. Having too many weapons is a good problem to have second roll left pat Murphy 24 seven sports chip we've talked a lot about kind of the quarterbacks maybe fine for the starting spot but some of the younger guys what have you seen from them we got an opportunity to see more of them today than we probably have what what's your assessment of them as they kind of get in this. I always am so impressed with young guys that enroll early in watching how they get acclimated and what they do you know when you look at Julian and air and and JJ you know they should be in the hot lunch line of their high school and they're out here playing in front of 80,000 people and they've really progressed when you watch them in meetings and listen to them and they interpret you know so. Basically the whole concept to is we throw them in the deep end and see if they can swim you know this we didn't baby anything we don't put the install in with hey you guys are in style we're an install this with the older players and then you guys you know go sit at the kitty table and we're just going to do the.

2:14:02Really simple things with you know where they get it all in the more they can digest the more when you're in a room when you're checking for understanding and asking questions and they can spit back to you the more confidence you have. When they get in there with the place that you can call for them so. Those guys have been impressive they're still learning you know they were the the guys today that we're kind of looking around and saying while there's like 80,000 people here along with the offensive coordinator the quarterback coach because I was kind of looking around because I'd actually never been in the stadium until yesterday when we had. Our 14th practice in there so I played Ohio State once when I was at Oregon but that was in the Rose Bulls I had never been actually in the stadium until yesterday so. I caught myself when I went into the stadium today looking around saying 80,000 for spring game that's impressive. Got time for just a few more folks over here to the right Dylan Davis Delaware Gazette given what you just said about throwing them into the deep end what stood out the most about Julian's progression through 15 practices and where he is as you guys head out of spring. Julian is a very fast processor you know he he really thinks very very quickly on his feet like he makes really quick decisions he doesn't stick on.

2:15:12He can progress and any ceasing is really well for for a young player you know in not having been exposed to a lot of college defenses and especially what Jim does you know Jim can make Jim can make a young freshman quarterback cry with some of the stuff he does but you know I never saw that with Jules and I that's been impressive his his ability to retain and you know him and JJ the compliment I would say if you got here and you didn't know him. You know what class they were in you wouldn't say that those guys are freshmen in terms of how they picked things up and you know sometimes freshmen at freshman but the guys who are special they don't act like freshmen you know they act like football players and those are two guys that are examples of that far left Cameron T. Robinson the athletic chip you on the topic of freshman James people's exam. Yeah. Yeah. You talk about how deep you need to be in this era of college football but as you search for RB three what did you see from them today and what is what is their growth been like in this spring.

2:16:15Yeah James really flashed early for for me not knowing again kind of let's just take don't worry about what the background is where they're from who they are. The this guy of this stars that's kind of that stars it's they're all buckeye some just how they do and I think James is got really good feel and vision. He can hit things I thought sanded some really good things today. T.C. is another guy who really came along during the spring and in work constantly talking in our staff meetings about depth were very cognizant of the fact that the playoff situation has changed. So you have to develop that that you know used to be maybe have a parent affair is what everybody says but I think you may have to have more than that you're talking about 16 17 games. You're you're really going to be tested that way so I was really happy with how those young guys have come along here in the 15 training sessions that we've had. Oh here to the right Tim May the Tim May podcast. Thank you Jerry. You have your own podcast yeah. Like these guys all had like a name next to their. You're name show.

2:17:16Okay. That's very cool. You must have some juice if you got your name in your podcast definitely. Okay. By the way I like it. It's not just the lunch last hot lunch last while it's hot lunch. Yeah. Just two quickies number one do you feel compelled to let these quarterbacks know where they stand here. You know it's coming up Tuesday you know to me there. Yeah. Where's that go I mean in your mind. Yeah we're all sit down as a staff and visit me don't mind. Maybe he doesn't unbelievable job of I think all our players understand where they fit in what what the picture is and we'll give them our assessment. This isn't you know we're not going to come back but we do it after every day they know where they stood after practice one after two after three after four. We grade everything they're getting constant feedback in terms of where we are and then after 15 which we had today but but we we can't do it unless you watch the film and can. Can really look at the things because you may see something but you're on the sideline. You know why did he make that decision well I couldn't really see the field safety from where he was okay now I understand why you made that decision so.

2:18:17You know what what what what the meetings with all our players and that's that's always been the method so this week during you know between. One day through Friday we're all scheduled no one's going on the road recruiting until after that but we're all a player meetings at every position. You know offensive line defensive line linebacker safety is everybody everybody's going to sit down with their position coaches and know where they fit and we see them. But do you feel a pressure with with the transfer portal looming I mean you've been a head coach for a long time I mean is that on your mind at Tuesday yeah I think. I think you know what you got to wear of it and I'm 100% and I don't think it's pressure but I think you just open lines of communication and everybody knows you know which. What your evaluation was through the training sessions that we have guys we got to have we got real quick good last two questions Dan Hope and then Rob all are. Feel like you need to have a starting quarterback named by and whatever biggest things you're going to be looking for between now and then in determining who that guy's going to be. Well between now and and whatever then is we're not allowed as coaches to go back out and practice with him you know in college football you get 15 training sessions in the in the off season.

2:19:24And then they'll go back to work and with Mick in the in the weight room and getting bigger getting faster getting stronger they'll have organized activities themselves. And they they do a really good job of that but once there's a football out like we're not allowed to be there to evaluate and even assess. So they're really from a football standpoint on their own until August so. You always want to do it earlier but I also believe every time I've been involved in this is that it kind of happens organically and authentically you know because the players know if you say we decided we're going to be with Joe and they all think it's Tim you know they know they're in the locker room with them every day players. Understand you know who they feel is the guy and most of the time it is Kevin this is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas this episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all new drink lineup at McDonald's I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's but the new drink lineup I mean it takes things to another level they've got delicious caffeinated refreshers like the strawberry watermelon refresher crafted sodas like the spriteberry blasts and now the all new

2:20:36red bull dragonberry energizer we're talking about a total game changer made with red bull that's mixed with blue raspberry flavor and topped with freeze dried dragon fruit. McDonald's has given us a refreshing new boost for your day and the red bull dragonberry energizer is arriving just as you're heading back to the dorms for the fall semester. It's got a boost of energy and a kick of flavor when you need it the most you know powering through those lectures and studying sessions you're going to need it. Kicking the afternoon slump or rallying for the weekend try one of the many new drinks like the red bull dragonberry energizer also available with red bull zero now at McDonald's. I love days like these of the pool but my moderate to severe plaques rice is can sometimes take me out of the moment I'm ready to make a splash with clear skin thanks to skyrizzy risen kismab rissa skyrizzy is a prescription only injection for adults who are candidates for systemic or phototherapy.

The ocean moves us surfing a wave or savoring the view the ocean delights us as playful otters restore coastal kelp forest the ocean connects us visit monoray by aquarium dot or slash connects. The decision is very obvious you know you just say this is where we are with it you know but there's that timetable thing I don't I can't give you an exact timetable in that so Rob chip you talk about Julian but typically in your experience you've done again like Tim said a long time long does it take for the game to slow down for a young cubi.

2:22:54I think it depends on the individual you know I've had some kids where early you know you're like wow Marcus my realtor was like that remember vividly second practice and he got to the fifth reading the progression and threw it out here and it was big game and I asked him why I do that I like I asked why I just want to understand it and I said why did you do that and he goes I don't know what we call that defense but there was like a lot of guys over there and they didn't seem like there was anybody over there. But for him to process that value it was right and he came back the other day whether that was cover six the other day coach like I learned what you guys call the cover. But it all happens differently I've got guys that for two years seem like they're just you know they're really struggling and then the light bulb goes off and you know whoa they got it so everybody has different learning styles you know our job in the evaluation process is to identify those learning styles so you know they cognitive learning and auditory learning you know do they to learn by the way we're going to do a little bit more. So I think the way I feel is it more a feel guy you know a more film guy you know it's all different and I think we have to keep poking and prodding and for us as coaches that's the challenge too is what is their best learning style and how can we convey it because education basically is just a transportation knowledge but it really doesn't matter what I know or what Ryan knows it matters what they know so that's always kind of what we're working on and studying and thinking about and kind of where we are and how much can they handle and then how much is too much.

2:24:22You know because this may be a great play I agree 100% but if you don't feel it's a good play then then why is it in you know I mean and that's that's this whole feeling of process that we're all they're learning us and we're learning them so. So this is have identities so to coach is really running quarterbacks is that something you've always sort of lean toward or is it year by year case by case what advantages do you like about because all your guys can run a little bit. Yeah I think a running quarterback causes problems for defense so when when plays break down the unscheduled plays you know if you just go back to the recent Super Bowl on that last drive the two big plays were my home's run but petrol my home's not a runner and he's not calling design quarterback runs for Pat but when the defense matches up and plays two men and turns their back to the quarterback well maybe the best decision is to take off you know the second one he took out I'm like he may score. You know a lot of guys go and they want a hook side you know and and there's times where you have to understand if you do have a running quarterback we talk about the best of the best ability is availability you know you're not low on your shoulder taking people on but we are always looking for quarterbacks that have the ability to run we're not looking for running backs that can throw you know so you're not going to see us.

2:25:4020 times a game we're running the quarterback and there are people that run it offensive styles and are really successful with it but with this group we have right now that's not now they can hurt you with the feet will did it when he was a case date you know obviously that and took off a couple times today air took off a couple times today Lincoln's a really really good athlete Julian can run but you know we're not calling design quarterback runs you know you're not going to see you know I tremendous respect for coach Hayes and the legacy that he left here. This straight T is about as far as we go we are not going single wing so we are not going to snap and run quarterback ice on quarterback power so but it is a it's another weapon you know and if it also keeps defenses on us you know if your defense event is going to continue to bend from the quarterback pleasant he's on the edge and he's getting first downs within the defense event has to stay outside and contain the quarterback well then we can run the ball up and and hand the ball off sometimes in our running game our quarterback really is a blocker he's responsible for defender if the defender is cheating and fitting in on the run well then that's not the right thing.

2:26:40His responsibility is to make make the defense be honest and and that's really air did that a couple times today and we had a block the safety was sticking his face in there so we took off around the edge what happens in next play the defense is wider than what we get to do you get a chance to hand the ball off to the running game coach thank you so much for your time and thank you for being a buck I was definitely addressed here you know this preseason I think Austin Saribel stepped up in a big way you know with Donnie being out and and then you know you know Carson can can play both guard and center which is good and you know we've actually you know San has done a nice job as well but it was good to see Austin you know he moved from guard to tackle a couple times and even with the ones he was in their battling his tail off so I think we have built some depth there but again you know we got to go play some games and see what I want to see you know what I know that the message to our to our offensive line is we want to play one of the hardest playing offense line in the country now we got to play with technique but the end of the play like knock the line of scrimmage back and play with your hair on fire as hard as you possibly can.

2:27:52There's a lot of goals that they play in the offense lines all the communication is a lot of things that have to get into place I think Seth has done a nice job of communicating understands the offense better now he takes control up front and brings everybody together which is great but but to me like that's it now we could list a bunch of other things but to me we've got a moving line of scrimmage we've got to be just playing with our hair on fire and knocking people back and playing physical and that's the start the game that's the end of the game. Now I don't see it that way at all I think you know we'll see what we got this year but I feel like you know we've got some really good young players in the system I think that we should have the best offensive line in the country that's that's the standard here has been for a long time and you know and so you know we'll keep pushing towards that this year and you know I think you know everybody in that room and take the same thing. So Sonny has really stepped up and played well he's made this transition from safety to linebacker very well I think he did a nice job in the spring but you could definitely see as he went into the summer just you know bigger stronger being more comfortable closer to line of scrimmage it's different when you're closer to line of scrimmage.

2:29:19He's doing a better job getting his hands on you know on offense alignment and getting off of blocks using a better job doing a better job with his hands like he understands the communication the linebackers always have to be involved at the front they can be involved and fit into the back end he's doing that you know I think he's you know looking forward to play playing in a game and you know getting an idea of what it all looks like but I can tell you in practice he's playing fast he's playing violent and I think he's you know he does a nice job. I've taken the meeting to the field being very intentional about his work but playing really hard. Yeah I haven't talked to Jim because you know we'll make that final decision here over the weekend but he's certainly leader in the clubhouse. Can you tell Ryan I mean Seth McLaughlin can tell he's been there done that is he as he projected that to the offensive line you're still when I'm saying from a leadership standpoint a grown man. Yes. How does that just come up how does it show up a bunch of ways it just poised it's not getting rattled when you know coach parks at you it's you know okay I got this let me get it on the control it's seem something in practice and being able to adjust on the move it's

2:30:32being prepared when you walk on the field it's recognizing how hard you have to play at the position it's kind of all of those things into one but he's got great communication up front he talks to the guys he's moving quickly in there and when you have experience like he has you know the game seems to slow down at times yet you know he seems to be playing it at fast level. You see that it's a point where you got to black stripe off and I feel like you took a step in the right direction when you come in in the summer it is very difficult to get on the field especially early in the season whether he does or not I will see but if he continues to practice the way that he's been practicing then he'll give himself a chance to be in the rotation midway. In the rotation midway through the season or later in the season which is similar to some of the water see everything that before you know you've seen some of those guys get some reps really in the season but then make an impact later in the season I think that's probably more his path right now now you know he shows up and starts doing great and you know we'll you know we'll give him the reps he deserves or like Jeremiah is in a different situation because he came in here in January and he was a little bit ahead anybody who comes in and January to me I don't look at them as a freshman.

2:32:01I don't think that's a good thing to be a freshman anymore they've been here they're in the program and we expect them to contribute. I'm still in there right there talking and communicating but in the skirmishes we've had it's you know it's been offense very defense so I've mostly been in the offensive side still kind of going through all those types of things and there's a lot to work through this year. Just with the play clock and then it's one of me by that is you know the cosplay communication inside of 15 goes off just there's a lot of things to go on there and we don't really get notification on that so I'm trying to you know just help chip with that and some communication that word personnel but I'm very much involved with special teams I think with a two minute warning there's some strategic things that are going to go on in the half end of the game that you know you're going to really be involved with but to your point just overall just looking guys in the eye making sure that you're not going to be able to do that.

2:33:11I'm sure that you know they have to right looking their eye that you know they understand you know with the situation what's going on in the game you know I think that happens sometimes with young players you know they're just like playing the next play and that's not just how that's not how it works we'll get to win the situations and so all those things will come into play and making in game adjustments you know be involved with all three phases you know watching the game on a tablet to try to identify what happened in the last series I think all all those things will be happening. Right now Nick is going to be the starter and you know that competition will go into next week but right now as we head into the weekend he is the starter and the player is ready to go for his partner to go up and go on Saturday against Hacker. He's got a strong leg he's he's made it a good transition into the country but also just playing you know football and not Australian football which is very very different.

2:34:16The you know snap to kick has really improved you know that was one thing as he's a taller guy so the ball has to get out of his you know get off his foot faster I think he's done that his hang time has been good and he's been more consistent you'll see you know he'll kick a few of it just go right out of the stadium you just got a strong strong leg so we're looking for that consistency he's shown that here most recently so he's got the upper hand right now. And last question to you. I don't know if it's because will maybe took a little bit longer to make a decision in December than some of the other top of the line quarterback to his did or because maybe there was a thought he wasn't going to be the starter can't stay this year but it seems like people have viewed him kind of as a game manager type of quarterback after eight months with him. Where do you see his ceiling of what what is Will's special trait to you and where do you see him take himself. I see you know a bunch of traits there I think the first trade is size big he can stand in the pocket and he's strong so I mean that's the first thing to notice about him again whether it's standing in the pocket with poise I think that's another trait that he has that's excellent he he feels the rush but he stands right in there.

2:35:33I think the next trade is just you know his top end speed he can run 22 miles an hour that size which there's not a lot of guys who can do that so I think that's an extraordinary trait and I would I would say his overall leadership command in the huddle is is another you know something that he's really you know growing into in the last few months when he's been here and then his accuracy he's been very accurate since he's been here. When he knows what's going on and he can anticipate what's happening I mean it looks right just feel it and he can hurt you you know a bunch of different ways so you know his ceiling that that's that's going to be kind of you know up to how he plays the season but I see a player who has a lot of great skills that you know translates well to the next level so we'll see but I know his first focus is on winning games around here. Thank you very much. Hopefully I take her to hold on. I'm going to go.

2:38:40The ocean delights us as playful otters restore coastal kill for us. The ocean teaches us how our choices impact even the deepest places. The ocean connects us visit monorebe aquarium dot or slash connects. I mean you have nerves naturally. That's the first complaint I was good. I was rolling. It was a weird thing. It was also the first start. Yeah. Yeah, but like I prepared well and camp and practice all week and I was I was ready. I have two multi-year starters. I did a lot. I mean I could ask them, hey what we got here but I was prepared well. I was telling Jimmy and said it's like a way our class will. I'll be emotional. What is it guys from Ohio? What does it mean to start a meeting?

2:39:43It was always my dream to come here and play and start and having that played me. I was going to keep going and keep building those days and those games and keep building. What a much younger Austin. Do you have people from you? No, not really. I don't think even I told like me I asked my younger self. Even committed here. I wouldn't believe that now I have a couple of starts. Yeah. Awesome. Has this happened faster than you? I think we're going to come here with players. I guess you're technically a sophomore. You can play as a richer player. I knew that year two I was going to see you some playing time. Now starting week one year two. I didn't see that but I was ready. I didn't spring ball. I knew I was going to play some soft games. What does it mean to you to not only get the opportunities to play but to like you play well enough now. Coaching staff trust you. You can play with them. What are the situations?

2:40:44What are the things that earn that so early on in your career? I guess it shows like my preparation, my hard work and just everything I put into this. And I just finally show up on a field. There are moments, the soft season, the Indian in the spring. And I'm going to realize that you could play at this high level. How about with the ones? You know, if you need to do it? Yeah. The definitely was in a training camp. I mean, black and highly can tie every day. Like it feels a lot of confidence in doing it well and not like getting balled or anything. So there's defensive tag wasn't that was the guy that you didn't miss. Hero and Jason Moore in Taiwan. All those guys. Pretty much anyone on the deepened line gets your face out of time. And Kay and Mack as well. Yeah. I'm more collected. How about the stability? That's a great thing. How much can he help you? He helped me a lot. And I'm proud that he's our starting center not someone else's.

2:41:44I mean, he's like the captain of the line. He's another voice on the line with guys like Josh Fryer and Josh Simmons dining and Tiger. That means another voice and another captain. Looked ways of having that. And I'm with this much experience. Help. You're in the middle of the. Yeah, like he can tell you like before the play was going on. Like how to block someone like we need to do. And like. That's a lot. Tiger talking about how calm he is. How much does that benefit you? You have a guy who's kind of been there and. It makes us us more calm. Like especially me and pay those are first started. So like we were up here. What what said like he brought us down. I mean, we were like fine. Like our emotions weren't high. We were so in. Is that like something he tells you? Is that something you pick up on by how he's acting? How do you kind of sense what he's trying to say? How he's acting and what. I mean him when we're on the side of him.

2:42:46Both Josh Donnie like he was telling us like a cool like we got it. But it's pretty much like everyone. Old group. How much do that? As a first time starter. How much of the end that mean a lot? That was my first time ever using high pets. We didn't use the iPads in high school. But. I mean, you can say like try to remember the defense. You can just come on a silent bring up. We'll play. I really. Probably the first or second. After that, I thought we say all right. Awesome. Thank you very much. Explaned. Why are you playing? Has you been a part of the settle in the guard? That's um I want to say. Maybe I don't know, but I mean when I'm when I'm pretty sure you got the job. I was really excited because I'm one of those guys who's the tempo. I can run with the tempo. You know, I mean, I'm I'm playing basketball all life and set up football and I feel like. Just the fast pace often so we're running really fits the guys we have right now. I'm really excited for that.

2:43:46I know you can throw football at 65 yards, but can you kick a football? 75 yards. I think Lincoln just. Probably Lincoln. What was your question? How is your. Your roommate. He's a blessing man. I can't complain. He's a great guy. What's the name? His name's linking. Teen hoes. Oh, who's cleaner? I think we're both really clean. That's why we kind of picked each other's roomies because we're very clean and we don't like our rooms really messy. Well, it's true though. It's true. The rope pretty clean. Luke, are you still cross training at Tag Olsum or if you just been all guard this break? So far I've been all guard. Um, I really don't know. Like I said, I'm taking it practice. I practice. I could end up being back at Tag Olsum. I'm not being back at Tag Olsum. I'm just really focused in on this past practice and the next one. Yeah, that mean a lot. You know, you put a lot of work in to play here. It's been a dream just for being an Ohio kid.

2:44:47It's from a Ohio kid's perspective. I mean, that's the biggest wish possible out of that I would say. That's going to be pretty cool. What was it like last year at first game getting on the field for the first time in the year? It didn't fly. This is going to be a weird answer, but it feels like I was playing a game yet. That that makes sense. I was pretty locked in. I felt like just no anxiousness, no stress, no nothing. I just went in that first game. I was like, shoot out in here now. It's time to roll. You know, it didn't really hit me. I was like, it didn't hit me after. I was like, what'd you feel doing? If like, getting out there at the end of the end. I was just like, honestly, I don't know. I felt less nervous than I did in high school. It makes no sense. What did you see? What did you see? What did you see? What did you see? What did you see? What did you see? I was just like, what did you see? A lot. I mean, I'm learning from Josh Aniston. I think Friars was one of my biggest role models here. He's my bigger brother when I first came here. Did you hear me? I don't know if I can do it. Did you? I don't know if I can do it. Okay. No. Yeah. So, yeah. Pedian Austin, those are my guys, man. I mean, even Miles too.

2:45:47I mean, all three of them. Those are my roommates. They're progressing every day as well on. And I'm excited to see where they can get to. I'm excited to play on the field with them. Oh, yeah. You know, it's been really helpful. You know? You know, just keeping my mind just settled and straightforward on the next blood. It's a great question. Like I said, I mean, I just need to stay consistent in my work. I think that's the biggest thing for me is just staying consistent and worried about the next blood. Take your time. There's something that connects you to some other big ones. You guys start turning out. It's time to close your eyes. Did it beat off the trailer? Absolutely. Yeah, I mean, when you see defensive, when you see defensive start arguing with each other and things like that, I mean, that makes it a lot easier, you know, to have those 10-11 plays around. What does that like? It's always for me to be able to start feeling like you guys were feeling out. That like a felt. The first game, I was good playing good, not holding. They were actually the same. I mean, it feels good to rip off these runs because I mean, we put them so much work on those.

2:46:50What's the difference? You know, seeing a brother, you know, that having worked, you know, he's doing this. Take reserve since that just offensive line wise is you'll prepare this week. Don't put back in there. They've all pulled first time really, this season. You know, it's not particularly in Austin. It's just more of Donovan Jackson, Pretty Seasonal American, etc. I mean, joining the group, you know. Donovan Jackson is a very good football player in there. Anyone who's on the field, he makes his presence tough. I mean, we've all been training on that. We've worked for his no tomorrow, just go through when he's all gone. It's him, we know it can be. Yeah, there's a sixth, there's a sixth, there's a watch in you guys. I was like, here, here. No, or even more of a course. It felt like watching you guys. Maybe even if you know, or did it feel like that? Yeah, I mean, we put in the work during practice. We practice really hard. Coach, they really challenge us to practice hard. Physicians, coaches really challenge us to practice hard. I was just a result of it. When it's rolling like that, what does it feel like being in the mix?

2:47:52It's not being a long time. It's us. When you work hard for something and you're able to see like what comes out of it, like that's, there's no better feeling than that. Hi, Grant. Hi, I'm Andrew. I'm Andrew. I'm Andrew. Hey, Jeff, you're right. It's about to get anybody swayed you. No, I mean, I was really funny to see. What has Seth been watching you guys for the first two games? What's it been like playing next time for the last two? He's, you know, he's really calm and stormy. Like you never see real panic and having a guy like that next to you. You know, you're having really played as many meetings for snaps. I mean, there's no one outside rather at some, I left him some, you know, for, and Seth. Those guys, they do so much for this offensive.

2:48:53I mean, people talk about his intelligence really kind of showing up in the film room and on the field. Where have you noticed that intelligence and how has that helped you? Yeah, like I said, and crunch time, you know, when things aren't exactly looking like how we practice it, you know, having a guy like that, like, well, it's blown out. We'll do this, this, this, and then, you know, we execute having a guy like that like this. There's none better than that. Hey, Ro. What you got? On days from different, on. Okay. Okay, what's my favorite cake? I don't know. Well, I'd rather. I'd rather. Uh-huh. No. I almost came back with a couple of sun to go some more. Take a look at it Marshall. They got a couple guys with a deep inside of it that has big tin rotting stuff.

2:49:54Absolutely. What do you see when you look at their tape and see? 15, 7, a couple of those guys are pretty pretty big. So, some size. Yeah, those guys, they're real players. They're real players. And so they're coach well, you can sell. They go hard, you know, they're real players over there. We've been practicing to the best of our quality. So, you know, and I'm prepared for that. You see, they've been for G. Tech last year. Notre Dame. They're, they're capable of playing. Yeah, they play, they play good ball over there. You know, their defense plays hard. They challenge teams, you know, sometimes they might be overlooking. They still challenge teams. You know, and so they come out there with the mentality like, no matter who's in front of the season, or the women out. This season, and then, we're good. Okay, let me ask you. What has been the base challenge? I mean, the actions right there right in front of you right now, which is kind of a good thing and kind of a bad thing.

2:50:56You know, you should shift off the rest, you know, hidden back in it inside. Yeah, I mean, I hear from Chris every once in a while. Trying not to bother him too much, but it's always, it's always good to hear from guy like that guys like the one, even Matt Jones returning back. All right, Tiger, thank you. Appreciate you. I've heard this year to just be able to contend for that job. We're not here to skill set. And that's what I think. I think it's a lot of, my weight, my height is more regard height. When I'm fast on my feet, and I just didn't use the technique, I'm still sometimes like basketball, I want to be on that just like defend, but you know, you got to stay in the stage playing some balls. Exactly.

2:51:56Yeah, that's a great question. I mean, I don't think I feel like these two can answer that for the beer. I know I think KK here. I don't know what to say about that. What do you guys think? I go games every day. This man is strong. I'm talking about like, you get the basketball here. It's not like you can just do a thing. He was kind of really fast, but he got the grip. He doesn't give up on the play. Like you said, he's going to go in there and watch the film. He's doing it every day, but he's better than me. He's just seeing it on the field. From like this one, you're not going to have to say you can see the movement at the game. Here, can you just follow us around all the way? He's like a coach, man. He's like a coach. Chip Kelly's influence changed your mind about maybe like the idea of tack over his guard. So his offensive predilection was sort of like, yeah, offensive line play. You think that part of you settling into guard?

2:52:59I want to say maybe I don't know, but I mean, when I first heard you got the job, I was really excited because I'm one of those guys who's the tempo. I can run with the tempo. I'm playing basketball all life instead of football and I feel like just the fast pace offense that we're running really fits the guys we have right now. I'm really excited for that. I know you can throw a football like 65 yards, but can you kick a football 75 yards and click it? I have a question. Lincoln, what's your question? How is your room amp competing? He's a blessing, man. I can't complain. He's a great guy. His name's Lincoln. Teen Hoes. Who's cleaner? I think we're both really clean. That's why we kind of pick each other's roommates because we're very clean. We don't like our rooms really messy. That's what I mean. That's true though. It's true. They're both pretty clean. Luke, are you still cross-training at Tag Olsum or have you just been all guard this spring? So far I've been all guard.

2:54:00I really don't know. Like I said, I'm taking it practice by practice. I could end up being back at Tag Olsum. But, you know, I'm just really focused in on this past practice and the next one. What do you mean? I was actually really nervous. Well, that mean a lot. You know, you put a lot of work in to play here. And I spent a dream just being in Ohio kid. I'm from a Ohio kid's perspective. I mean, that's the biggest wish possible. I would have said that would be pretty cool. What was it like just last year at first game getting on the field for the first time? It didn't feel like, it's gonna be a weird answer. I feel like I was playing a game. If that makes sense, I get it. I was pretty locked in. I felt like just, no anxiousness, no stress, no nothing really. I just went in that first game. I'm shooting out here now. It's time to roll. You know, it didn't really hit me. I was like, it didn't even hit me after. I was like, what would you feel there? And if like getting out there at Indiana, I'm just like, honestly, I don't know. I felt less nervous than I did in high school. And it makes no sense. What did you see in the back of the line? What did you see in the back of the line?

2:55:00What did you see in the back of the line? I mean, I'm learning from Josh Ann Austin. I think, Fryer said, one of my biggest role models here is my bigger brother. What's up with you? I don't know. Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, for you and Austin, those are my guys, man. I mean, even Miles too. I mean, all three of them. Those are my roommates and they're progressing every day as well. And I'm excited to see where they can get to. I'm excited to play on the field with them. Turn off the light. Oh, yeah. You know, it's been really helpful. You know, just keep in my mind, just settled and straightforward on the next play. What do you think? It's a great question. Like I said, I mean, I just need to take consistent in my work, I think. That's the biggest thing for me is just staying consistent and worried about the next play. To my game, and I was like, whoa, I never had that happen. Like, no other school, like just Ohio State Fair's candy market. And I was like, wow, that's crazy. Do you like, I mean, I'd be quiet, but also, do you like that?

2:56:00Do you want everything that comes from it? I do, but at the same time, I don't just like to be a normal person. I don't really like to. I'm going to feel, are you a showman? I mean, how does he describe this kind of like your art form? Yeah, I mean, yeah, I want to feel, I'm a little bit more chipier, a little bit, but sometimes I still be quiet on the field. What's the competitive part of you? What did that, when did you notice that about yourself? Oh, I've been having that, I mean, since I was like, eight, nine years old, you haven't, I mean, just high-end, how's the rate just to be competitive? That's the reason why I chose to come to Ohio State. Just to compete each and every day, I guess to go, I guess the best DB group in the country. That's all I'd say is, it's been enhanced in the last several months. I mean, you want to get Ignacio and then Benzl Perk, etc. Oh, yeah, for sure, I'm just going to get them two guys, the best two DBs in the country. I mean, that's the reason I can't hear. Just going to get God just going to make me better each and every day. That's the day, I'm going to play the rest of the games. Yeah.

2:57:00You just said work, and then the two plays later, you call it work, I have a mortgage card, I'm going to see. Yeah. You just said work better for me. I said, I said, well, he said, when he defed little boy, he said, I'm here, I said, okay, I'm going to be back. And that's something to be back, then when I'm going to be the play, I just walked off, that's it. When you're in the park, the ball, you say, I told you I'm coming back, right? What's it like to be back to the car now, say, be in the grandmas, where you're at, say, be in the back. I feel great just us three to be in the field together. We're going to make a lot of plays this year. What did you learn about that over time? I learned a lot, especially from Cardinal, because we both play outside, so we just learned it from him. And the things he learned, he just teaching me, and he was behind Mar, and stuff like that. So he just teaching me the game for sure. What specifically if you got better at it, you can't compare it to what you first got? I said my footwork, that's the biggest thing. Me and Coach Alon was looking at that's one thing I need to get better on. So I mean, I just worked on that in all seasons and just got better over time.

2:58:00What, what can still be your work ethic in here? What instilled my work at the end? I mean, just, I really don't know, I can't really answer that. But it just, it's just in me, like, I just want to work. That's one thing. I think I say, I did it for my dad. My dad really the reason why I worked so hard, because since I was like eight years old, he just wanted me to just work and be the best at what I do. So I mean, I really, I said, give him my dad. What's the difference in the clip of my day, on tiny day, what? So I'm going to have to go on bubble and do it. Yeah, yeah, see. How close did you come to this? I wasn't, I wasn't flipping out of, I don't know why. Because I made it seem like it was that, I was a bugger, and that's it. How did you dad set the table? Oh, he said the biggest example. I mean, just, I ain't going to say it was only just my dad. It was, I mean, I have a cousin named Geno Smerry Play for the Seattle Seahawks. So I looked at the him as well. I mean, seeing what he was doing at West Virginia, he would take Austin and Steadman Bayley. So I mean, he was a motivation for me.

2:59:01And just all the guys that grew up before me in a Miami-Guarded area, a brow area for sure. I mean, just looking up to those guys. Guys like, I say Brandon Enders for sure, he was a class ahead of me. So I seen the things he was doing in the eighth grade. And I was just like, whoa, I mean, that's something I want to do. What do you think about the expectations for me? I mean, I had Chris Carter on my podcast, Team Wings, he thinks you could be a factor from the first play, first game, et cetera. Those are big expectations. You got Brakes on? I really don't. I mean, I know it's big, especially for me because, you know, no one playing the country coming in and all the hype around me. So I mean, I just try to block out all that stuff and just focus on the main thing, just the team and I receiver room and the locker room. And no just first game come if I don't see the expectations that you have for me. I mean, I don't really care. I just want to go out there and win a game. I'm going to have a confidence boost for you. When people like Chris Carter and Marvin Harrison Jr. are saying, this guy can even expect a serial house date.

3:00:03I mean, it's something great. I mean, I just got to go out there on the field and just show you guys that I could beat it. That's probably the greatest great Ohio State receiver to come through here. So I mean, it's a blessing to have that. But I mean, I got to go out there and play and show you guys. What do you think about that? It means a lot for me to be, was it the first freshman? Yeah, I mean, just that's a blessing for me for sure. Just shows all the hard work that I put in and off the main on the way to room and stuff. What do you do when you're talking about maturity? My dad early. The maturity. No, just be older than, don't act my age. I go through my age. I mean, a lot of people tell me that I don't act my age. I'm way, way beyond my years. I mean, just, you just got to be mature and, you know, at no, I like a kid. What is the couple more questions for Jeremy? It's about 50. 70, 30, 30.

3:01:0320, 30, 30. Just, no. When I see a 50, 50 ball, I mean, I just think it's, I got to make the play. And it's on me. You know, matter how the ball is, it's a bad ball. I just feel like I got to make that play no matter what the circumstances is. You know, matter of it's a bad ball. I feel like the ball is mine. It's no matter who in front of me, or no, no matter. What's that like? Getting between the ball and the fender come from. You're telling me to set you apart and my speed needs a lot of weight. Do you always have that neck? Oh, yeah, I did. I always had that neck. I was like, since I started parents here, like eight or nine years old, I just found a way to, you know, make sure that ball is mine when it's in the air. And I just got to always find a way to make my quarterback look good. I think we'll have to find our same little Howard's looking more. Oh, yeah, for sure. He definitely made a big jump from industry. I like his confidence. He's starting to talk more, talk a lot of mess on the field. And I like that about my quarterback, about a lot of quarterback.

3:02:03I like to talk and, you know, just get around his players and make him feel good about himself. He talked on the field, you know, just, you just said a lot of stuff. I can't say, but he'll talk for sure. Okay, Jeremiah, thank you very much. Thank you guys. I was on me, my split was too, he wanted me to come, my split down. So that I was, that was on me. That wasn't a good, that was me. The result of that play is silence. Clear that will be offense.

3:05:06Just a high estate. All the receivables that I was here before I got here. I did not have no inspiration. I just gave all the things to God. Is that surreal to you then? To be putting up kind of numbers you already have? Oh yes, for sure. I mean, but no job. I still got stuff to do. What does this have on the trust? He tells me a lot each and every day that you sing a single cover 101. I'm going to you don't matter who or you don't matter. Just throwing it up. I just got to make a play. Do you realize that you trust me that way? Is there a moment in the spring or this in the trend camp? I say fall camp. That's really when he was just trusting me. Just throwing it out and I'm just going to go get it. On the play Saturday with the day you said you should play with this too. Yeah, too. Yeah. I should have cut my split.

3:06:06No, I think I was, you know, like part of the numbers I should have been like numbers plus, numbers plus two I believe. Yeah, something like that. So that's the reason why he just played over top. Yeah. That's who is the intersection. When you look at your numbers, you gave history as a partial amount of highest pay. This is the whole coach for one program. You feel like a normal parchment. I mean, you're an exceptional freshman for this universe. Yeah. National. I mean, I love it. I still feel like I'm just a regular freshman, but you know, a lot of people say I'm not, but, I mean, just the role that I have is coming in. It's just, it's been a blessing and I just can't think, can't say it's on me, it's on God. I just, the coaches were trusting me to have a put a freshman out there and just to go out there and make plays and just do what I do. Hearing from your teammates, you've involved in confidence in you, but you said you didn't expect to have playing time when you came in.

3:07:06So what did you actually expect? How much do you think you would have gotten? Not that much, because you know, you got a card to rotate. You got mecha, Google I came back. You got Brandon, is that big of your all? They don't bother all of them guys. So really my mentality of just coming in and just working, learning and just, you know, play special teams and make plays on special teams. A lot of my mentality was. You expect this to be different, big teams play. Yeah. What do you expect to be different about big teams? I mean, just watching them, they played better team than the last three teams in play. So I mean, it's going to be a better team that I have in the last couple years that we played, uh, higher state play than as we called they said. So, I mean, it's going to be a good game. You got to go to the higher state as always. I'd be happy. So, thank you. Thank you. Thank you, man. Thank you. Oh, yeah, for sure. We hungry right now. I can see in the air, everybody, uh, everybody in office, officer line, quarterback, well, how are receiving? We definitely hungry for sure. We ready to go out there and have a dinner and just put on the show.

3:08:07Awesome. More of the podcast. Should you? I have to tell you what would it know you more? Uh, being interfered with not getting the call or not being able to catch anyone? Uh, I say be able not to make the catch anyway. Uh, I feel like everybody's throwing me. I have to catch it no matter how different the only or not. I just feel like I have to make a play no matter what. I mean, I played Saturday. I feel like I could have caught it, but you know, it was a passing difference, but it touched my hands. I should have caught it. Dan, hold the level. Worrier. Mike, there's a lot of discourse from fans this week about you not winning the Sean Alexander freshman year award. Just what's your thoughts on that? Uh, I mean, me calling is a great player as well. I mean, I can't really not kill. No, Sean is a great guy. I talked to him two weeks ago. It's a great guy. I learned a lot of things from him outside of football as well. So I mean, I really can't focus on that. I'm just worried about beating Oregon and just going out there to pass a deal and just putting on the show. Is there anybody else who questions Tom Moore, Bucket Huddl?

3:09:08You mentioned getting bragging, is that the issue getting used to that. From straight through, you see that from the follow teams. Is that from straight is that, you know, you and it feels like you always think you're open? Or you still open when you brag? Oh, yeah, for sure. I feel like I'm still over no matter my brag or not. I mean, they just came out with a good game plan to break it me and a Mecca. And, you know, uh, me and just, you know, things didn't go as planned as we thought it would, but you just got to keep moving on and just move forward. I don't know how many times in practice over the weeks that we had off. I mean, just came down to, you know, they pressed me. We were taking a shot. That's what they told me. The week we was off and he told me, her before the day in the locker room, I just got to give you a shot. That's what he did and I just made a play.

3:10:10The first game to get historic and just how tough was that challenge against their secondary? I know you have to pin them to get the end of the game, but you guys made plays all day long against them. Just what's your thought about the challenge those guys gave you? I say the challenge is going to be a good challenge. They have some great global guys there. Jabbar Muhammad number seven, a Niko Rhee, a Kona Manai over there. A great global guys. I mean, probably the best we go see all year for sure. We just got a good name, you know, Bio, Ohio State. That's all. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas.

3:13:37You talked earlier about some of the great athletes that got challenged and inspired to be like, where is that confidence come from for you? How long have you had that confidence that you have the ability to be one of the greats in this sport? A lot of people tell me that I'm going to be great at what I do, since I was about going to high school. A lot of people tell me that just football is all I know and that's all I really want to do. I live, breathe, sleep, football. That's all I really care about. Don't care about everything outside of football. Football is all I know. I just want to play football in my life. Thanks for all of our lettering and roll. It seemed like you were well, we're trying to collect on some of the sleep balls throughout the year. You'll be able to finally do those in that moment. Did you have to kind of carry that forward? Was it the same on the way that you guys continued to progress? I mean just the weeks that we had all we were just working on deep shots because they tell us immediately that we have we got to take shots down the field.

3:14:39We just got to connect on them and no we'll tell me before the games like I said you guys thought about it then just give me a chance and I'm going to make a play for you. That's what that's what you told me and I just got to make a play for you. Adam King, WBNS. We can all joke, we can all talk about the expectations and the start of this become you know you were just 13 games. How do you handle that? I mean just a freshman, how do you take all these expectations? Know when you step on the field that you're always open and still go out there and play? I mean expectations, I mean I can't know how you're staying for a reason that's what I wanted. When it be challenged I wanted the expectation. Expectations I should say. I mean Coach Hotline just helped me throughout the whole year just preparing me for each game each week. A Mecca, Buka, Cardinal Tey, Brendan and really the whole receiver on just helped me stuff I don't really know about it just helped me throughout the whole week and I can't really say it's all on me because my talent is but they really been a big part

3:15:40of the reason I'm having the season that I'm having for sure. When you look back at your freshman year what was the most difficult part about adjusting to the college game? What was the part that you had the hardest part about trying to train this really? Learning that playbook. A playbook is something that was just coming in spring ball. Me just new plays in every week. I'm like what is this? This new plays every day in Coach Hotline like you we go you go be good we got no summer fall camp you go be great so I mean just you know that's it that's definitely was the hardest part just learning to playbook and a lot of other things I have to say for sure. I'm pretty sure I got it down the path right now but net season I really want to learn everything the HZ yeah I really want to learn everything in the playbook for net sure for sure. That would be 247 sports. You mentioned how many guys it might

3:16:43take because you did not feel open so when you are one on one and Will's talking about what he sees you be one on one. What is going through your mind as you wind up and realize there's one guy covering. Win that's all I could say. I mean that's what Coach Hotline we do something like in a hotel Friday night before the game he asked me like a question like you get one on one something like that he asked me what do you do I say win and everybody just start laughing I don't know where every like it's true like you got to win you win and run about it so yeah. Jeremiah they moved you around something to send a seat to the point where you get a couple matchups against linebackers what goes through your mind when you find yourself matched up against a linebacker. I just start laughing in my head a little bit. I mean linebackers can't really cover receivers like that so I just know like it's most likely going to be open but you know they just try to move me around a lot because you know people try to bracket me when I'm outside just alone

3:17:43by myself so that's why there's movement me around a lot. Or left, Caleb and Lauren, the Lantern. Jeremiah you mentioned the most difficult part of your freshman campaign as they learn in the playbook what has been the best part so far? My way is going to rub off on people eventually and I would also say that you know you kind of have to understand who you're talking to you know people certain stuff makes different people tick so you've got to know your guys you know if you got to get hard around somebody to to make them go or if you got to kind of relate to them and you know pull them aside have a talk so I think that all goes into leadership and you have to be able to that has to be a skill that you have to be able to develop. What's been different about Coach Day now that he's a two-hit coach? Give a play-calling duty so let's have a two-hit. What's been different about him? I want to say you know too much has necessarily changed but you can tell he has tremendous trust in Coach Kelly and what he's what he's going to do in the kind of the schemes and everything that he's brought into our program so the fact that you know he has such confidence in him

3:18:43in his play-calling ability makes us tremendously confident so Coach Day has always been coached in and continue to stay that way but I'm glad he's able to you know focus more on what he needs to focus on. He's kind of a field general in a sense kind of the quarterback on that side a lot of people may think just you know the Mike linebacker and we have Cody Simon who does that as well but Caleb's kind of that for our secondary kind of make sure things are clicking on all cylinders and he's just a very cerebral kid very smart and he's able to kind of take control of the defense so make the right calls make the right checks so he's definitely annoying for the office to deal with but it makes us better. I would say impacting time offense it's not like you know we're not oblivious to the fact of the caliber player he is but you know as a offense you come out and you expect to execute on anybody who's lined up across me so.

3:19:44Yeah I never really thought about it like that but we definitely come a come a long way since my freshman year thankful to the Lord they've kept me all these years and come ahead and I'm straight and allow me to you know develop into the person that I am now but so you know coming full circle it is really surreal moments of being my senior year playing against you know the pre-black on my first catch me so it's really cool. I remember Kyle getting yelled at who was a ball he was not supposed to throw and I also remember getting pushed out at like the one or two year online so that's kind of a bittersweet memory but it was a great memory. I mean I have to say yes if I don't think I should score it I don't think I should be playing football. Yeah my only came in he kind of has all the intangibles ever see where you can tell you just love the game the way he goes about his business he runs every route to perfection he's a he's

3:20:46a no very cerebral kid and every time he gets on the field he expects perfection so he's just got to continue to develop continue to work and I'm really excited to see what he's able to do for us. Look at how he's had you seen Gerrified May throw over camp to be able to quit for this opportunity to start in the other day. Yeah I think you know it's no secret that he has all the physical capabilities that you would want or receive it really any position you could play any position on the football field with his athletic ability but so a lot of it for him was putting together the mental piece of the game you know not just understanding what he has on a specific play but the whole concept understanding defense is all that type of stuff so there's nothing really that can get you ready for that moment for your first nap in college because it is different than high school but you know once he wants to get acclimated gets used to it I have no I have no doubts it's going to take off for us and do too many things. I know you seem to continue to bring the team together. Yeah I mean it's been a it's been a huge part of everything that we've done but a huge part of a lot of the reasons why the series came back and everything like that so we have a team

3:21:47by the study that we continue to do and continue to grow I'm kind of just preaching the truth of the gospel to the guys on the team and it's definitely permeated throughout the team throughout the years because you know looking back a couple years ago there wasn't that many people on the team heavily into their faith and along came a couple special people who really changed the dynamics of our program but you know the Bible says one man plans the other man walks but God ultimately brings the increase so we're just trying our best to stay obedient to the Lord and he's done tremendous things. What is true special people you just mentioned? I'll say kind of the the the founders I'll say of the team's faith we're definitely master team for one Cameron Bab and Xavier Johnson so those guys. What do you view as your responsibility as Captain? Really what I view my responsibility as a captain and just as a as a person in general to push everybody closer to Christ and you know by doing that I try to walk as close to Christ as I can myself I'm kind of be that example be that life for people

3:22:47look up to and I think all the the basic principles that are found in the Bible in the China perspective naturally naturally make you a better leader a better person better football player in a sense so I just try my best to anyway him. Yeah I mean we have specific goals going into every single week some of our goals for this week is you know things can get sloppy in the week one you see it all across the country you know false stars penalty is all these types of stuff so we're really just trying to be clean go out there play a fast complete football game clicking on and firing on all cylinders so by no means are

3:23:49as underestimating and you opponent we go out there on the field every Saturday spaking the blood whoever lines up across from us so that's just our mentality so we're going to hold true to that. Yeah very very unseared is guy very funny guy kind of lines the room when he walking when he walks in and he's just he's a true joy to be around you can kind of throw will into any setting and he's going to get along with everybody there so definitely up the the team chemistry locker room we love having him around so we're super glad he's part of this team. Game Purchanum 16 13 20 years of temperatures what allowed with the passing attack to be skated that prolific as even the off the fly will be from the off the

3:24:49ball just had to come out quicker and so far so we have to see every day and the line up is that the dude is not sitting in and they're running faster and quicker. How much do you feel like that game can be a building block for you in terms of continuing to be a bigger bigger party off of? I feel like each game a building play we a stack each game and stuff like that so I just made bigger places so like that's what I just felt like it's another building block from the mad oh they've been doing pretty good they've been not in stuff like that new guys new places and stuff like that we're all trying to pick up from the injuries and stuff. Oh we do got to get in the box. I don't know why don't we got to get in there probably get the safety get linebackers or at the end it's like that whatever they need us to do. On your touchdown catch so this is like a distance ball a while to come down. Okay, I'm going to go in. Colonel what's it like? Did you figure the ball was going to be coming in sooner or later this year?

3:25:53We'll call it my grail meaning you know you'll get three big-time libraries maybe four or five if you figure it out it would find you insignificant and significant in size. Yeah I knew it would all come my way each and every week we have plays for each and all of us in stuff like that it just really depends on what the defense gives us players to give us one thing and it's not a ball goes away from me or goes comes to me and stuff like that so ultimately it's not in my decision or a ball goes. And yet you're blocking a state of point so like you're blocking it is our point. Yeah our blocking from the wide-out has been a big emphasis this year and stuff like that because we lack that pretty much all last year so they've been a big emphasis on blocking it here from the wide-out. And when you look at Penn State on the video what just stands out about there maybe their pass through Pancewood which you're going to be personally up against in the center. They are pretty good select corners they play man that lives in stuff like that so we got to win our one-on-one I'll tell them on the perimeter. I'm similar to today I know you got an opportunity to get into the game last year I'm similar as there of course it's your cornerback so what you maybe saw last year. I'm pretty much the same uh Maricopa Dollar round they got a little size on the foot

3:26:56and stuff like that uh they all probably pretty much the same size all around. Thank you guys. Thanks guys. Hi guys that's a better pressure who's walking away. He kind of brings some good energy uh Jason Middleton right there too. Yeah he kind of oversees Max the Blanc a little bit uh that's pretty fun. And then catching we uh we all have some pretty good opportunities for catching especially practice we've all made some good money catches. It's a very competitive group fish here. Yeah. Definitely competitive but in a good way. We're all there supportive. We all know our strength and we've got this and we're all going with it. After practice we're working with each other and hopefully totally get better because we all know that we need each other. We'll see what's going on next season. There are a few you know you know he adjusted the process from the long-term 50s and the pressure point right up here. I'm going to say there's a point where you push like okay not just

3:27:56you and you and you and I are part of it. I need to be like understand all of them. If you're on the way to push through you and you're on the way to the front. I'm not sure if you're on the way to the front. Um if you're not sure then how how some people who power you have. Um speaking with the time of day we're like that. I mean I have to tell you I think it's a few on that right. So sometimes it's taught a few around. So I mean it was before practice when I knew that. The records were just when I first started training. Yeah. I think I could do that. I think I could do that. I think we're going to be great. I think we're going to be great. I think we're going to be great. I think we're going to be great. And stuff. Um he's definitely on rock top here and I like that. Yeah. Yeah. I mean that's what our unit is. We're trying to talk us. But you know I do that. I'll explain what he has for a certain point. Yeah. We're getting ready. Yeah.

3:28:58I would say we definitely have grown. But he's starting this way. That's where this old started. Trying to get it. Yeah. I mean I want to really say it's drilling. That's drilling and counting abilities. We're right there. So you know if it's a latch, I would fall star. That's where the growth is. Yeah. I would say our gindi kind of drills are going to be our best. The most important thing is that we're going to be doing this. We're going to be doing this. We're going to be doing this. We're going to be doing this. We're going to be doing this. We're going to be doing this. I had how much from your family been a great resource. You've been being a football player here in Ohio State.

3:30:01I mean, being 20 minutes from home is pretty nice. And my dad playing here is a big one too. So just being able to go back home and spend time with family is good. I'll get something to do here. How often do you go back? I would say probably once a week. I would say somewhere right around there. Not that far. There's some good things. Yeah, get a family dinner. Yeah. Do you ever go back for a high school event? Go back to being in front of schedule for men? Yeah. You play for me a bywee or this week I can go back. So it's not that bad. When things ramp up in school, how do you balance that? You know, cover that point. Yeah, it does. Especially when the skinny and the skinny little ones. You really have to go to the high school and you have to be really down on that. Now that we're on this whole much 10 years, what excited about it is you're not getting on the field and playing meaningful football.

3:31:01You know, brothers, seeing the brothers succeed. You're just knowing that all the work that we put in and doing that we go to the arms here. That's awesome. Are you a big guy that had on taking in the environment or you choose all business once you step out of the honest field? I'd probably say it's in the whole business. I kind of just kind of want to talk about how I go out there and what was going on. There's moments when we had a big run at Notre Dame on the table and that was awesome. There's moments like that when we just kind of have to look at environment. Yeah, that's a good idea. When you were at Notre Dame and getting on the football snatch, how can you prepare for that for everything happening? Is there a way that you can get fresh in that moment? Practice. You know, practicing here is practice 100% here. So that can be something that's in the genre and you can learn that.

3:32:04And then, if you can definitely see any help in that work on it at the game, it means just what they're about practices. What you're thinking about is that you're talking about the D.D. You're always excited and working against that practice. How do they push you as to having an idea of what you better and what you're thinking about? A little quicker than me. So I'd like to get my hands on and a little bit of my can and just kind of break off of that. That, you know, their quickness kind of helps me get my feet moving. So let's make a help out of that by coming back. And we are in product. As the Adam, we get both feet moving. You guys are taking the guy that he and will be on. And then it's fighting for that new goal. What if they might see the top program? I mean, you've seen a lot of those guys grow. So, I'm pretty close with that. I mean, we've got a cable, I'm just an experience. We aren't the exact same. We're all talking about a free amount of water. We all have that. We're just keeping our hands on it. And we're just hearing how many guys have had a new impact on how life can be like that.

3:33:06He's the one I thought I thought was the kind of thing that's been thrown away. People don't know what we're having. I think it's been a good time for me to have been making this game. That's a lot of things. I think it's been a good time. Yeah, I think that's a lot of things. So, we did have to close the window. We didn't know what to do. I don't know if we should go through the office. Yeah, we're close with him. We talked a lot. I would have said to you, Moban and also to you. I think that's a great thing. That's what I would say during mid-Spring after spring. I said, okay, I'm gonna do better at this. I've had a really good summer, really good fall camp. I agree with all the turns. What's like that on rehashing it? Yeah, I mean, again, I've been a year ago. I'm not going to be able to do that. I'm ready for this. What do you feel like your role can be? Whatever they need me to do. I'm self-indulterated. I can provide a lot of blocking in and passing in. It's been great.

3:34:06I feel something with all the guys. I like to realize that you've been through this before. Thank you. Yeah, I mean, again, I mean, he's out down the stairs. Sometimes when I watch a film, I don't know if that's me or him. He's a great singer to hear this skateand burn it down and follow. Yeah. I'll explain the rightácagound in the next video. Oh wait, sitzt got to calm down. Yeah. What's interesting about these guys that like I said, they're the best in the country. They have pretty kind of employees going in and going for some walk They working on my hand mountain團.

3:35:06Renting home. play, I developed a really, really. Yeah. It did, but at the same time, we were different skin. We were jacked down 26-pound, 26-pounder plays. The year is more than over. We do do jack ones. That's more design. So it's different footwork than different bodies and different things. I think the previous year I think I'd like to do one. I don't see you feel like there's just an opportunity for all of you in the tight end room with Cade now. Yeah, we're at this Cade for sure, but we're getting in, we're making sure they're better. What's your vibe on? The strength of the brand, of the whole brand, with a spring game, one block, one in a row, one in a row, one in a row. What are your strengths? I mean, it just shows how what we have going on in the highest state. We're fortunate enough to have a program. I mean, a game on national program.

3:36:06I think it shows the power of the program. The fourth edge, this week in Tilt Coatings, that maybe that started last week before Iowa. Your thoughts on how you guys move back? I think going back to this foundation, I think, as a team, we believe that we're built on toughness. It's one thing to say, but I believe that we show up weekend, we got one show toughness. But to your point, last week, I believe there was position groups that were challenged, not necessarily taking a personal, but just challenged to practice harder than let's see, how hard can we practice? And so I think ever since then, there has been another step that we've taken. But that's the whole goal. I mean, I hope in two, three weeks from now, there's even another step that we take forward for where we are now. That's just the evolution of getting better as a team. And I think one thing I'm noticed with this football team is I think every single week we play, we continue to get better. But I mean, that's just life, right? I mean, I mean, if you continue to do, you have the hopes to continue to get better at it. But I think we're seeing that here with this football team as well.

3:37:07Yeah, I think when we talked to you in camp, you said you were excited about how you guys are going to run the ball this year. And obviously, you've done that. At what point did it become clear to you guys were going to be able to kind of hang your hat in front of the ball the way you are now? I just think we're such a balanced offense. I think this kind of going against our team, especially in specificity against our offense. I think there's just too many things you have to remember. You've got to respect the perimeter and you have to respect the run game. You have to respect the stretch and the inside zone. All the different things that we can do, putting the ball over the field in perimeter or even taking a shot down the field. You have to respect so many things that just leaves gaps in the ability to gash the ball for six and seven and eight yards. So I guess to answer your question, the more dynamic we're ever to be on the perimeter, the more we're able to connect when we hit on shots, I think the better it's going to be able to open up the run game as well. But I think Coach Kelly and Coach Day, they do an amazing job just putting us in the right position and we don't have to think about that kind of stuff.

3:38:07We just awful minds that is 4 to 6, 8 to B plus 2 to play as hard and as violent as we can. And we'll look at the scoreboard at the end of the game and see where we are. Is that balance the best you've had in the game? How would you guys characterize the balance of the ball? Yeah, I just think I don't know, I don't want to sum up, I don't want to compare. But I think we're just a very balanced team. I don't, there's not much weakness. Now, when I say that, we still have the humility to know that we must continue to be better weekend and we gout. But when I just look at our team as a whole, I don't just see like, let's go pick on this guy. Because this guy can't do X-Wank D or we can leave him. I think we have 11 guys on both sides of the ball that are able to be dynamic and the physical and strong players. And I think we're just a complete team. But again, I say that with humility, we want to continue to weekend and week out be the best team. We know we have to show up because on any given week you can lose. So we show up every week with the intentions of the National Championship.

3:39:08And I think we've got to keep our team up, give them some support. Let's keep our team up. We're going to have a lot more of the days, but I think we're going to have this team for the Iowa game. What kind of help you grow as a leader? What kind of help you grow more comfortable, I guess, as being countless voices with my team. I would just attribute that to my faith. My words, David, Jesus Christ. I think before you can lead anybody else, you have to have a sense of foundation who you are. Having a sense of self, an idea of self and I think the more that I've been able to be strong in my faith, office is giving me and to being able to be a leader to other people. But I think that's where it starts. How can you lead people if you're not really sure of where you are? And then also when it comes to practice, practicality of football, I think the more you have an understanding of the offhand, the more that you are and the more that you know, the more ability you can then hand knowledge to the next group of younger guys coming behind you. So that all helps with leadership. But I would attribute that to my faith, my strong foundation,

3:40:08and knowing who I am. Maybe some of the better instrumentalized years that you kind of were able to learn from as well. I noticed that they were pretty good leaders as well. You asked who were some? Others, there were so many. I mean, this being my 50 year, I've seen many, many leaders all the way going back to my freshman who was just in and pass bowl and Jonathan Cooper, those guys to then the next group of guys with Chris and Fayer, all those different guys going up coming through here. I've seen many great leaders and I think there's something I would definitely say there's something special with the leaders on this too. I would say there's not the leaders that we have on this team, they're not just leaders due to seniority, due to it's just my turn. But I would look at the leaders that we have on this team and say they're sincerely leaders. Not just leaders by any kind of hand-me-downs. They're truly, we have great leaders on this team. The first question, Brandon was saying that he feels like Will is just built for the moment.

3:41:10Do you kind of feel that way too? Yeah, I feel like he never gets too high, he never gets too low. He's always locked in and focused. And that's the kind of, I don't know, temperament is the right word, but the right attitude, if you will, for lack of better words. That's the right attitude that you want from a quarterback. No matter what spot we are in the game, we can look to Will and who will be able to lead our huddle. And we have confidence in that. All right, gee, thank you. Really, man, it's tough practices, hard camp and so far, and it's been tough practices. So really just coming in each and every day, man, it's just trying to get better.

Not to run, especially in these match-up games. You know, these big-time games. So, you know, we've definitely been working, you know, to try to do that. But what's the most intense memory you have? The Carlos Lachlan. Got here. I ain't going to lie. It's so many. It's so many. Fall count, no, fall count, man. I got so many there. Fall count. But yes, it's a lot, man. Okay, what was the first impression when you went shot and all you guys first met? I think when he first got here, he came. He came in the room. And man, he gave us the speech. He was like, I'm a dog.

3:45:13I'm a dog. And man, that's right, I knew I was like, I, we in it, man. We in it. But, no, I mean, I love Coach Lach, man. It's all the deep brains here, man. I thank God for bringing him here, man. He's a man. He's been amazing, you know, in this room on the same man. He's been a huge part of the same. So, I was talking to you about that. Have you ever had a coach quite intense as with Carlos'? Oh, yeah, man. Coach, Coach Afro was that way. You know, he, he coached me that way. And, you know, Coach Lach does it as well. And so, yeah, man, both of those guys, man, I'm so thankful. You know, that God has allowed us to cross paths. You know, they, they both been really helpful in my life. Maybe on whether, whether it's that stiff arm, like the cell, the other thing, or we just kind of generally keep it in balance sometimes. I was born as a herd running back to work on stuff with the kind of off hand, and you're not carrying it as long. I mean, I feel like it's just a tool, you know, you can use, you know, sometimes that comes out. And so, one thing that Coach Lach helped us work on,

3:46:15which is using different tools. And so, it definitely comes to show on Saturday, you know, sometimes. So, man, that's, yeah, it's really important to just try to work on those tools as a running back. What about contact now? And so, I'll do the first that over the course of the group. It seems like that's going to strengthen you really, really. Yeah. And, really, man, just like the part of this program is getting developed. And so, really, just getting developed here, you know, on the coaches here, they've been doing a good job of helping me, you know, on growth and becoming, you know, a better running back. And so, especially having Coach Lach here, you know, he's been a huge part of, you know, the success. I praise God, you know, first and foremost, but, you know, with him bringing Coach Lach here, him leading Coach Lach here, man, he's been a huge part of that. With Coach Lach, you know, we talk so much, you guys have talked about it. You know, split carries, but now that you're actually in the season, you deal with your aim for a drive and then Coach Lach comes in, and you go over that nerve drive where you feel that defenses are more worn down, where you're not in first time going the way.

3:47:15You split back, it feels like you've always been in the future back. Now, you're kind of split carries. Do you feel like, you feel that defenses are a little more worn down than you are, when you get in there, you know, first, light first quarter or early second quarter? Every now and I mean, it really depends on the team. You know, there are some teams that play hard, you know, four or four quarters. And so, yeah, it really depends on the team to be honest. You think split carries, what kind of helps you at all in the end? Yes, it has helped me in so many ways. And you know, it's a long season for real. And so, the biggest thing is just helping, you know, with the wear and tear. And I'm just building off each other moment of two. So, it's helped in so many ways. And kind of building more in here, does it even help when you get in the ball? You just might seem a lot harder, because that doesn't help at all. Coach, they actually talked about that to be honest. Does he express to the team, you know, if you get tired, you know? We got definitely on the same, you know, guys who can come in and make plays. And so, he actually expressed that.

3:48:16You can't test the sitcom, but what's impressed you about the offense and why in the month of 2017? Man, really the work they've been doing, you know, they're in practice. I mean, I know y'all see it, you know, during on Saturdays, but man, really the work they've been doing in practice, you know, it's hard, man. And those guys do a good job of, you know, just coming in each and every day and trying to get better. So, you talk about your thinking, getting off from Sean. And he comes out with a step arm. You come out with a step arm. You guys speed off that mentality. I want to be another, one of another. Yeah, man. Like I said, man, there is definitely, we build momentum, you know, off each other. And I'll definitely build momentum off when Sean, man. When Sean is a great running back, I believe it's the best running back in the country, man. That boy, talented man. And, you know, I'm so thankful, man, to have him here, man. He's going to be a huge part of the scene. Thanks, Sean. You're great. Thanks, together. And we got on the field and executed. I thought it was just amazing to see. So, as a teammate, you know, I gave him the arms and the props. And we got to the end of my bro. That's a hell of a lot. But, is this good?

3:49:16Did you hear him yell from the side, man? No. Because he was so loud, he could hear it on TV microphones. No, actually, I did, man. I just seen the blitz click up. I would laugh. You make you want to go out there and get one? For sure. Yeah, for sure. How was your fast-proven center? I thought. Definitely, you know, I didn't get a lot of blitzes as far as I think all they had like. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe. And Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas.

You know, I asked Coach Kelly yesterday, is he called things differently when you're in the game, when he sees you're in the game, or when he sees Pravee on the game? He says no. He felt like that too, because the packages are the package. You all just run the planes. Yeah, I think that's the biggest thing. I don't know the total play. I don't draw anything else because I just go out there and execute in my game.

3:52:20Yeah, I know you all are trained the same. You look at the guy you see. He's a little bit different from that guy. Yeah. How do you like this package? It's all about which I'm going to get. You know, it's only the first game, so I wish I could say. Yeah, definitely how much I like it so far, but I think as we continue throughout the season, we get to showcase a lot of different ways. How does it compare to what you can do? You know, this stuff in the variety of plays, etc. I think just starting off the season at the point that we're now like, we haven't really done too many crazy games just regularly. Let's go practice. Yeah, you already did. This is a pretty deep team. Oh, yeah, definitely. It's going to be fun. It's time to share. Which one is it feel like you guys are close in the run game, the bus is you open? Yeah, I definitely think so. Like I said, we see on the fan, you know, how everybody has collectively come together and improve things that were missed or stuff like that, but I think we definitely will.

3:53:20I'm sorry, I had that big wall. Brandon, are you in it? No, what's your point of view of that? We're watching back on film. What's every action for you and how much of an emphasis it is that it was like your grandparents. Definitely, definitely a big emphasis, especially at our position, super important, just to see what we do in practice together in the Eagle XV. So what's the reaction to seeing in that box? I mean, at the moment, I just like, bang, he and like, he brought. Sure. Coach Kelly was talking about you, great beyond James Peoples. Doesn't matter who's in the game, they call it the same way. And James, like, what did you see in his first performance? You see some similarities that all between the US. I think in James, man, just saying, I'm going to go out there and be super excited with the performance. Like, go out there for his first game and see him get the run and get the dirties out. And get the experience like his first game. Me and Tray both just enjoy it. Are you surprised at all the sea terrorizing happen first ever game?

3:54:23I think just as a team and like, we're so talented and everybody just works so hard since we've been here. And you get to see what each of their teammates can do. So it's like when they go out on Saturdays and feel surprised. Great. Which one? Thank you very much. Thank you guys. Thanks for watching. It takes a bunch of walking towards the locker room. You don't mind. Really just coming in each and every day, man. It's just trying to get better. How important is Navajo, especially now in take time? Man, it's very important. Coach, they stress that a lot. We've got to run the balls, not to run, especially in these match-up games. These big game. So we've definitely been working to try to do that. What's the most intense memory you had the most lost in the locker room?

3:55:23I angle a lot. It's so many. It's so many. Fall count, no, fall count, man. I got so many there. I think when he first got here, he came in the room. He gave us this speech. He was like, I'm a dog. I'm a dog. That's right. I knew I was like, we in it, man. We in it. I love Coach Log, man. It's all the deep. Thanks God for bringing him here, man. He's been amazing. He's been a huge part of the scene. I was talking to you about that. Have you ever had a coach quite intense as with Carlos? Oh, yeah, man. Coach Ophor was that way. He coached me that way. Coach Log does it as well. And so, yeah, man, both of those guys, man, I'm so thankful.

3:56:23That God has allowed us to cross paths. They both been really helpful in my life. Maybe on whether or they said, step on what to solve the other day or, we just kind of generally keeping the balance sometimes. I was born as a bird running back to work on stuff with the kind of off hand and you're not carrying this over. I mean, I feel like it's just a tool. You know, you can use, you know, sometimes that comes out. And so, one thing that Coach Log helped us work on is just using different tools. And so, it definitely comes to show on Saturday. So, man, that's, yeah, it's really important to just try to work on those tools as a running back. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas.

I don't even prove that over the course of your trip. It seems like that's going to shrink when you're really going to see it. Yeah. Shoot really man. Just like the part of this program is getting developed.

3:59:32And so really just getting developed here. You know, the coaches here they've been doing a good job of helping me. You know, grow and become a better running back. And so especially having Coach Lock here. He's been a huge part of the success. I praise God. First of all most. But you know what him bringing Coach Lock here. Him leading Coach Lock here. Man, he's been a huge part of that. So. We've talked so much. You guys have talked about it. You know, split carriers. But now that you're actually in the seas of New Zealand, you're in for a drive and then Coach comes in. You feel that defenses are more worn down where you're not in first time. You know, you split back those before. But you've always been a feature back. Now you're kind of split carriers. Do you feel like. Do you feel the defenses are a little more worn down than you are when you get in there. You know, first light first quarter or early second quarter. Every now and I mean it really depends on the team. You know, there are some teams that play hard, you know. School four quarters. And so yeah, it really depends on the team to be honest.

4:00:32I think split carriers. What kind of help you at all in the. Yes, it has helped me in so many ways. And I, you know, it's a long season for real. And so the biggest thing is just helping you know with the wear and tear. And I'm just building off each other moment of two. So it's helped in so many ways. And kind of a little bit more in here to even help. You know, you're not maybe getting the volume. It's like, it's not harder. Coach, they actually talked about that to be honest. To see the team, you know, if you get tired, you know. We got we got we got definitely on the same, you know, guys who can come in and make plays. And so he actually expressed that. Bigger chances to come, but what's impressed you about the audience and why? Man, really the work they've been playing in, you know, during practice. I mean, I know y'all see it, you know, during on Saturdays. But man, really the work that they've been in during practice, you know, it's hard, man. And those guys do a good job of, you know, just coming in each and every day and trying to get better. And you talk very thick, eating, eating off.

4:01:32When Sean comes out with a step arm. You guys feed off that mentality. One of another, one of another. Yeah, man. Like I said, man, there's definitely, we build momentum, you know, off each other. And I definitely build momentum on my Sean, man. Coinshaw is a great running back. I believe the shoot of best running back in the country, man. That boy talented man. And, you know, I'm so thankful, man, to have him here, man. He was part of the scene. Thanks, Sean. Yeah, man. He's been working really hard, man. Even before this evening, he had a great spring, great summer, especially throughout fall count. He took a lot of reps and went against the top players, taught defense in the country. So I think, I think he's ready to have the build. As a bad team game, would you recognize what team is happening with it? Bring Austin in as it go over, then coming in, and then we're against two players. I'm not going to lie. Sometimes I'm too locked in. I don't really notice it. But it went to me to go down. It was still clear that it's in K-Land.

4:02:32And so this is trying to motivate you. You know, he can do it, man. And then it's a great battle. We have the team trying to do it. A lot of people are going to win. Praveen, on whatever things you can do, add the veteran, add the bags, then to help those guys. I think the biggest thing, you know, is just continuing to encourage each other. And those tough times, you know, when it gets hard, I think that's the biggest thing. I think there's a lot of time of time to be hard. You know, you can get selfish. I think that's how it's done. And so that's something that God has been helping me work on. And those tough times, you know, to not be selfish, you know, at all. And really encourage the guys, you know, around me and spread his life. That's when you've seen throughout the team here, it was past week and a half. Yes, I definitely have seen that, man. We've definitely been listening to each other up and encouraging each other. So, you know, just, they're really trying to put the page and focus on the basketball. We'll talk yesterday about how this lost group has been in United States in the right way. You haven't had a lot of chances.

4:03:33Did that chance of winning? How do you feel like you guys are turning the page of the public? I think really, that was like the biggest focus when we came in after that loss. I met as a team. It's just like, Coach Day, really did a good job with that, you know, just like, man, we all kind of own up to the mistakes that were made. But, you know, one thing I love in respect of our coach Day is that he took it upon himself. You know, he called himself out and it was like that, so I know. And really it's not all of us, you know, as a team. So that's one thing I really love about Coach Day is that, you know, he was willing to check himself. What was the last week's practice like specifically coming off that day? It was tough now. It was a great week of development, you know, getting better and cleaning up the little details of things. I think, you know, we continue to strive on the little things, the little details, you know, we can really go forward. What's different about coming off the loss early out of this season,

4:04:33compared to coming up that first loss later in the year? I think the biggest thing is it humbles us. You know, it keeps us focused on the right thing. Like, I believe this is a test of our faith, you know, in the Lord. I think this, I believe, you know, he wanted it to go this way, you know, in test our faith, you know, where we continue to trust him, even when things don't go our way. And, you know, he's helping us pass that test. You said Coach Day called himself out. What did he call himself out on? What kind of things do you say? Really just as a head coach, you know, this is his team, you know, he's like the God. And so he was just like it really starts with me. And so we love that, you know, I think a lot of times, you know, coaches will pinpoint it on everyone else, but Coach Day, you know, man, he just took it upon himself and like that's only, you know, he's going to get fit. And, you know, he's definitely been pushing us, man, and pointing us in the right direction, man, and helping us clean up things. Try to quench your own glee, then football, and then have any fun with this career? What do you see for him kind of found the back from that?

4:05:35This week, this week, we have a procedure down as well, but where is he at in terms of, you know, responding? Quenchon, man, he's been responding to that virtually really well. Yeah, he's definitely not used to putting a ball on the ground. And so he's definitely been working hard in practice to get that, to get that fix, man. Quenchon, there's a really great player, and he's definitely going to bounce back. Is he the kind of guy you have to go over to right after that happens? To give him some motivation and comfort? You kind of leave him alone, that's kind of hand-pulled. Yeah, I mean, we always go to the bench, and we encourage each other, man, Quenchon. You know, he encourages me, I encourage his hands, so man, it's like, man, we're just sharpening each other, man, and therefore each other, you know, when you need it. Trigger, on the 2014 title team's getting in common Saturdays, they're 10th anniversary. Do you remember watching Zekin and those guys as a kid, and how did they put your memories of them? I'm not going to lie, I did not watch it at the kids. I'm not going to lie. Have you gotten to know them now, or just what's your sort of like, you with that team?

4:06:37Yeah, that team was loaded, that's what I heard about the team. It was really loaded. I see highlights every now and then, I think, leaping off to like the Champions League against Belmer, right? Yeah, he had like four, right? Four tuts, and the four? Yeah, I think so, but I know that team with Stagman was loaded, so a lot of great guys on that team. I think that's why, you know, just coming in, you know, with the right mindset, trying to put it in the work each and every day and get better as a team, so. What are some ways that you and Genshinon kind of contrast the complement one of the things that we may not be able to do as well as the other invite's first. Shoot, I don't know, we'll see. Where is James step number before some of the things that happen to you? Man, James has been so good, man.

4:07:37He's a really good person, man, good player, and he comes in every day, you know, just trying to get better. You know, he kind of reminds me a lot about myself and so, man, this is hunger and everything is coming in. He's going to be a great player, man. He's continuing to buy, you know, to go ahead with him here, and you know, where we're trying to go. And, you know, he's going to be a huge part of this offense. You said good person to you. What's the matter about this game? Man, he just brings someone to join, man. He's a buddy dude. And, man, yeah, I just love a man as a brother, man. I got a huge, you know, just a chance. You know, I knew James when he was recruited, and so we talked a little bit. And just like being here, man, just being in the, you know, helping him in search, and we know the local community. It's been a man of conversation that we have, you know, just off the field. And so just being able to be that one, you know, when he's in the field, you know, just ain't for that. They try to put the killer down. Everybody's serious. He's seven-builder. How does the impact affect the one-year?

4:08:37Running game? Yeah. How does the helicopter down? In fact, you guys know the other one. How does the other one affect the one-year? Oh, man, kill it down. He's a good player, man. I was so glad, you know, he's here, man. He's been really good for the defense, man. And, yeah, man, he's all around the field, you know, making plays in the ranked game, past game, everywhere, man. He shows up everywhere. What is it we, with your response of the captain? As a captain, Jesus teaches greatness and serving. And so I just, you know, I think for me, you know, I just want to be, you know, the Lord's humble servant, and just be able to serve others. You know, the players on my team, you know, how I reckon do so and be the captain that the Lord wants me to be. And so, you know, it's a big responsibility, you know, the biggest thing is just like that I pray on it. And that the Lord helps me to remember is that, you know, I'm trying to please him and not others. And so, you know, just keep it in my eyes on the Lord and continue to allow him to work on my heart to be a better teammate captain for my team. I think that's, it's going to be really good.

4:09:39I'm not really, man, it's just, yeah, not really, man, I'm just so thankful, you know, that God has placed me in this position. And my teammates, you know, they, they picked me to be in this position. And yeah, I'm just so thankful, man, and just being in this position, like I just want to be able to bring glory to the Lord's name. And so, like I said, man, just leaning on him, you know, it's tough, man. It's tough being a captain because every day, you know, you got to come in and people are looking at you, you things right. And so, there's been days where I struggle and just gotten in the secret place with the Lord and just asking the Lord to for help, you know. And he bought me through, man, and he's continuing to make me a better person, a better teammate. What have you told your coach? I'm doing two steps in his first son's birthday and one sitting on the game, and then you... I don't even think we're talking much about that yet. Yeah, I don't know how much we're talking about that.

4:10:40We so locked in there right now, man, it's just, when that time comes, what would you tell them about the atmosphere of what is going on on Saturdays, you can keep on passing? It's a sight of, man. It's a sight of, especially first game, being back in the shoe, the walk, and seeing a fans and everything. You know, it's a huge environment, so, yeah, man, I know he's going to be so excited. You guys are bringing over two in the country, you're loaded, people expect y'all to make a run all the way to the championship game, you know what happens then. How legit is that from your game's point, from your city, and from where you're sitting? I'm trying to be on about this team. Yeah, sure, man. You know, it's a long season, and so I think the biggest thing is that we're trying to do as a team. You know, this year, it's not looked too far ahead, and just taking one game at a time. You know, I think that's the biggest thing right there, man. Let's just focus on hacking and marshaling the next game, the next game, and then eventually, we'll get there, man. We'll get there, but just every day, just trying to focus on one day at a time, putting in the work, and I'm preparing for the opponent.

4:11:44You know, we have each week. Great, thank you. Thanks for having me. Appreciate you, John. Appreciate you, man. I'm so, you know, it's been great, and the more that I just throw to these receivers, and just get, you know, get around these guys, you know, the more, or we're coming together and becoming a team, and it's, it's cool to see, and we just got to keep, keep doing it, and keep practicing as hard as we event. How do you practice? Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe, and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all-new drink lineup at McDonald's.

You know, I think I've done a pretty good job protecting the football and being smart with my decisions.

4:14:53I think that I want to continue to push the ball down the field when I have opportunities to. Be accurate down the field and get some more air on my deep balls. Those are just a couple things that I've thought about personally. But I think one of the bigger things is what are we doing as a team? I'm thinking about myself and how I can be better. But the bigger thing is how can we be better as a team? How can I facilitate that being a quarterback? How can I encourage somebody before we go out there to remind them, hey, if it's a running back, make sure I'm 60 on whatever protection. You got these guys. Doing things like that is something I want to continue to grow in for my team. Because at the end of the day, all 11 guys have to do their job every single play. And being the quarterback, you have to facilitate that a little bit and help those guys and make sure that we're being the best team we can be. I'm going to step on something.

4:15:53I'm going to step on something. I'm going to step on something. Yeah, I felt fast. It was nice to get out and run a little bit. We made a little QB call on that play and got out and ran. It was fun. Obviously, it's nice to compete with those guys and run and trying out runs and some BVs that are really, really fast. I think it's a good play. No way. I don't want your team to be part of the past. You want to do it with a big, big, big, big, big, big team. You feel like you're like the sun. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. That's a big part of my game. It's going to need to be a part of our game as an offense. Whether that's in the re-game and the scramble game, whatever it may be. I just want these guys on my team to know that I'm willing to run the ball and go get that extra yard when I need to. That's what it really comes down to. Are we going to run some quarterback, run play, sure, but at the end of the game, when it's third and five,

4:16:57and everyone's covered down the field, am I going to be able to tuck the ball down and go get six yards and run someone over? That's one of the bigger things. I want those guys out there with me to know that I'm going to go get that extra yard. I've always been part of your game, but some quarterbacks are able to run, but not willing. I mean, I'm going to be coached all those games. As a visitor, Pee Wee, I mean, just to be able to run. Yeah, I've always definitely, you know, when I was a young kid, I was a pretty good runner. When I got to high school, I was a tall, you know, skinny pocket passer kind of. And I wasn't really known for my running ability. I ran it a few times in time, but when I got to K-State, I put on a little weight. I started to get a little stronger in my leg areas. And actually, my first start against TCU, third play of the game, I ripped off an 80 yard QB draw, which I surprised myself with it. I had had some good runs in camp, and people knew I was good athlete. I was like, man, I just really just do that.

4:17:58From then on, it just kind of became a part of my game. And I just got more and more confident with it. And, you know, the more you do it, the better you get at it. You know, throughout my whole career there, I obviously, I ran the ball. I get a mountain. I enjoy running the ball. I think, you know, people always ask me, is it more fun to run, to touch on a throw, to touch on how I like to run it? I think it's pretty cool to, you know, run in there and celebrate with the teammates. But, you know, yeah, it's definitely been a big part of my game. It's in me to be able to do it. Well, the guys who said it. It's a good question. Everything is, everything's heightened here. You know, I think, you know, you feel, you feel the eyes a little bit, and you feel, I think, I think that, you know, the one thing I would say is that I don't feel like I have to be a hero here. And I feel like I have the guys around me to where I just need to facilitate and just get them the ball and make good decisions. And at the end of the day, I don't have to go out there and do anything super human.

4:18:59You know, I just have to be myself and trust the guys around me. And, you know, going through camp and through spring ball, like, it was talking to you earlier, Adam, like, going against his defense every single day is a, is a blessing. And like, I know it sucks at times, and I'm sitting here like, geez, like, you know, in a, in a game, like, that guy's not going to be guarded like that, you know, that's just then Zell being a dude or IGB, you know, making a really good play, but like, that's real. And that is going to happen. And we're going to play some really good defenses, but like, I think we're playing, you know, one of if not the best defense in the country every single day. And that's just making me and us better. And, you know, for, for me, you know, it's just, it's elevating my game. And I, I love the competition and we, we all do. So. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all new drink lineup at McDonald's. I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's, but the new drink lineup, I mean, it takes things to another level.

We're talking about a total game changer made with Red Bull. That's mixed with blue raspberry flavor and topped with freeze dried dragon fruit. Wow. McDonald's has given us a refreshing new boost for your day. And the Red Bull Dragonberry energizer is arriving just as you're heading back to the dorms for the fall semester.

4:22:08I think they're doing a really good job. I think they hear in this offense they're doing a lot of different things. They're moving around a lot. They're blocking, they're catching. They're doing a lot of different things. And they've shown some really good plashes so far in these first couple days of practice. I'm excited for this group. I think G is doing some really good things. Obviously he's one of those alpha dogs in the offense. Everyone looks to him. He's one of those guys. And Will Kazmarik, so it's really good things. So Lonnie's doing really good things. Everyone's stepping up. It's been cool to see. I think that tight end room is definitely bringing the juice. Coach, he's got him going. I'm excited to see what they do. You feel like you're the number one quarterback. You approach practice with the starter. The mindset wise, how do you go about that? Because obviously it's still a competition. But the mindset is that you're going to have to do it. I'm just trying to be the best version of myself every single day. That's all I'm trying to do. And whatever I get thrown in there, I'm going to go in there and make the best out of my reps.

4:23:10And show this team that I'm going to fight for them and do everything that we need to do to win. That's all that matters to me. Just getting better and the best team that I can be. This is the first year that the most important guys are trying to see tricks of village. And coach guys who are trying to see tricks of village. You guys know more. For the help of the LPSU. Harder and new office. Has that been valuable? You know, it's been awesome. Yeah, I think it was long overdue. I think you know, we've had these guys that have ton of knowledge. You know, and had all these weird rules that they couldn't coach. But now being able to, you know, have Riley and Billy and Coach Kelly and Coach Day all coaching us. You got really two quarterback coaches on either field when we're doing like two spot like it's invaluable. And I think Billy's been awesome for the room. You know, I think Riley, Arkansas, some really good things. Obviously coach Kelly and coach there, you know, some of the best in the in the country. You know, I've built the quarterbacks and you know, the coaching that we're getting is awesome.

4:24:11And I think having the analyst be able to be out there on the field has been really big and long overdue. I will. tips that there is no front line. There's a point you guys look at. We're talking to all the rest. At what point would it be helpful to know who the starter is and then be able to get those reps to be the leader more important. Yeah, you know, I wish I could say I don't I don't really know. And you know, that's not up to me. That's that's not my decision. I am I'm just going to be myself. You know, keep fighting to be the best version of myself every single day. And you know, try to make the make the most out of my reps and show this team that, you know, I'm going to I'm going to give them my all. And that's all I can do, man. And we're just going to keep competing, keep making each other better and have fun. So to your past, you feel like a different pastor. You work a state in law. Yes, I do. I think I've I've tweaked some things with my mechanics and you know, I think the coaching that I'm getting here is not not mechanic wise, but read wise and

4:25:14and people wise and and all these different things. And you know, I'm just I'm getting a different deeper level of coaching. And I ever have before and you know, I have a deeper understanding of the offense and what the defense is doing. And you know, my movement keys my pre snap checklist, my post snap reads like everything's just been faster. And obviously, you know, my experience helps with that a little bit. But I think, you know, my work with my with my quarterback coach has helped a lot Jeff Christiansen. You know, he's he's helped me a ton. And you know, I've I feel like I've just gotten stronger and that's helped me a lot too. So I think I'm throwing the ball with a lot more confidence, throwing the ball a lot better. And a lot of that has to do with the coaching I've gotten. And you know, that's a great for those guys for getting me ready and, you know, making sure that, you know, I developed myself in the off season. And, you know, I've become the best version of myself going into football. Thank you. Thank you guys. Thank you all. Appreciate it. For my whisper, you know, the quarterbacks they've had just the past five years shown the kind of great numbers.

4:26:15And I've done things the right way and I've wanted to come to this offense because by hand, because my coach Kelly, you know, make adjustments to Ryan, I can do it. That was that. That was that. That was that. I had pretty much contact with them. And you know, they weren't really a, I didn't know that. It's not really one of the things that Coach states is that you don't like to have your hand held. Any kind of process. Now you've played up a need a lot of time in football. What is it about you to drive you to want that much further? I would say, you know, in high school, I had a coach that, you know, he was giving me a lot of responsibility. And I knew, you know, a lot of, a lot of responsibility, I mean, making sure on me. And so I just, you know, I want to do the best for that he can be. And take the need to feel, do things the right way and just do things the right way. I don't know if I love Washington, Joe Burrow, you know, he makes that adjustment for Ryan. He's a really good decision maker. I like Justin Erber, he's an eye-op charger fan, so I'm watching him play.

4:27:15Some of those guys in the middle of the, you know, big decision makers who make these mistakes. I would say I'm a little bit more quiet, but I'm working on the help of that, you know. I'm just trying to get the new goal. I'm not going to be there out there with the guys, I mean, I'm not going to be there. Trying to be a little friend. That's why it's definitely quite confident. That's why you're confident in your ability to play. I know a little bit about the club. I've been a coach for a few years. I've been a coach for a few years. I actually, I think I've only been here once in a few years, I've been a process. I love it. I'm a really good group of places to be, hang out with friends. But not in a second. I think I've visited maybe freshman or sophomore year. What do you think? Yeah, just for the camper and visit just the, just the super-cell of these. I know it was only a few days, but being in the Alabama program, especially as they prepared for a club plan from, what did you take away from that short period of time?

4:28:16Yeah, it was really good with the, you know, coach Rees and Jeff Satan. They were coach and players hard and I saw the work and things that get to the playoffs. And I'm coming here to see the older guys putting the work in the, throughout the winter. And I've seen our older guys and older leaders putting the work in the show and having things. How much of a relationship do you have with Aaron, obviously? Coming in, he had been committed. You come in, you broke freshmen. What was it like before and what's your relationship? We didn't have much relationship prior. We measured it with 11. I knew each other a little bit. And then come in here, you know, quarterback room, everyone here is really close. So it's a, we're all pushing each other to be better. We're all, we're all taking push points from each other trying to be better. It was the most, the most, the most, the most, the most, the most, you might describe it as expecting. I would say we are a cop, I surprise, you know, come back from the, in the game and here's a little bit high experience because of team journey. It was kind of, I think that was, how did you feel in that group?

4:29:17I think they were majoring in the play pool or do you have a design like this pool? Like, was it first time that I had a good drive with all that? There was definitely a lot of emotions, but I might be leaning on a, help me put it in the, make the right decision and I'm like, I'm not here and I'm like, I'm a little, a little, a little, a little, a little, a little, a little, a little, a little. I have a true question of working with you because you're a coach. You know, I can't really explain how that would be. I'm just really trying to help them, take coach, coach day, I can have a great quarter-night play spirit. I mean, I can't just post a coach Kelly, so I just want to help them run the offense when they want it. And then just take their coach and play some tries for them. If you look at your face, that coach is great. I think that I can be a really good decision maker for the offense and someone who would be absolutely nervous and trust. It's a great question. Is that an actual thing?

4:30:19I think it's kind of a lot of things. I was always around football, my brother was a quarterback at Penn. He was a quarterback in the eighth and I was in high school and I was a footballer in his fifth step. So I've always been around football and then I just been at other offices high school and just really just had a lot of fun. Who's your favorite Titan? Packer. What are you saying? I'm a type of person. Why are you a player? I just keep it like I do. It's going to show. And so, from a coaching standpoint, yeah, it feels a lot better when you're not looking around like... Oh, help. You put your right hand down there. Now, like I said, we had the sickness going back around and it was like, you just slide outside in. You're going to two platoon and go both cars today. You got a coach. And that was good for both parties.

4:31:19As a coach, we can so practice and then for the kids, getting really good reps out of it. How much does it... It's your way you can do it. It's like college. Yeah, just flip the calendar over an offensive line unit anywhere. I think the maturity of these guys is probably what sounded or showed with Donovan. I wasn't over there, but like... You had to hold his hand. That's our position. That's who we are. That's when you want to coach this position or play this position. And you're going to take those. So, I think the maturity and the growth of those guys, understanding what they need to do, why they need to do it, is going to pay dividends when we get on the field and start playing in the games. What we're playing more and continue to play more like linemen and not lines on a page. I think as young guys and new guys you get in, you're kind of like, like, who do I have? Oh, I got burned. Okay, I'm going to go get the burned.

4:32:19Terrible. Terrible. No blocking you. I don't want to block you. You're right. I don't want to block you. You can block me. Okay. Okay, you can get it. Thank you guys. Yeah, no. But just trying to not screw it up or get there. Siguring it out, you know, schematically or whatever. We're now the ownership and, you know, we're going to burn, and this is how we're getting here. And this is technically amusing. That's showing up a lot better than guys. Like I said, that starts up a lot of trouble because we're not. You're not blocking a pop up, like we do pods. We do individuals. Larry's guys. And you got good on good. And it's showing. And if that's the positive, it's worth it. as a coach now I'm sitting there feeling like, it's going to be better about it because we're doing it and they're doing it because they understand it and they're not just saying, I'm aligned on the page, I gotta go back to those guys. You mentioned Larry's guys, how much is it almost shining a light if you see a weakness on your line going against those guys? I would think it would expose it pretty well. You get a good read on what you have. Yeah, it's another proof though. When you're in a matchup game, Brian talks about this

4:33:21all the time, it's you versus you. If you don't take the right step, if you don't communicate or get the right fit to the right identification, then really good teams and really good players are gonna take advantage of that. If you give them something that way. So you're playing you. So for us, did answer your question, yeah. They expose like, why did I get beat right there? Did he beat me or did I give it to him and he took it? And then Larry's guys can do the same. And all we get, whatever the technique may be on, a zone player or a gap player, whatever it may be, and we hit something big, he can watch us say, hey, did you miss their fit, did they miss their hands? So that good on good that we're getting to go, it's gonna expose a lot of things, not necessarily how good you are, but when you don't play as good as you are, if that makes sense. Hey, Justin, I'm just a smite between general question, but how would you see more, I guess, including approach, how could you pitch most change over the question? It's still all about, in my mind, or my like the evaluation. Like you have to be a guy that can come here and grow and perform and play.

4:34:22The changing has really been with the NIL landscape. And so figuring out what that piece really is, how vested and how far you have to be in that, what's their priorities? So I think that's always, that's gonna be a fluid thing. But at the end of the day, like, you know, I'm sound boring and cliche, right? But like if a kid loves to fall, it wants to be great, wants to get developed, wants to be around and play against Larry's guys and those guys in practice. And we feel like we've evaluated through camp or through tape and we've offered those guys and we wanna go get those guys. Is that 40, is that 60, is that 90? I mean, that's, that's our evaluation and what we have. So from a, you know, the game of football hasn't changed, recruiting change, yeah, and all that. But you still gotta take guys that you can go and develop because that day one ready made guy and the offensive line set, point amount if you're finding four. Yeah. Because they're feeling far between. Yeah, you see a roster hold with, you know, five stars in the counter-seaway quarterback, corner, wherever. And it seems like there's been a little bit of a struggle to get those top guys. So there's those top guys. Do you feel like you're approached with NIL

4:35:25who has a part of it? Do you feel like it's working? Do you feel like the pitch that are high state here? Yeah, because we're not done yet. I mean, you know, keep your head on the swivel here. We're not, I mean, December the long way away and the weekends coming up soon. And, you know, where guys are, where they get recruited, what position they're for. I mean, that's what we have to do. That's, that's my job. That's, that's coach's job as we go together. It's like evaluating guys that we feel can come here and develop and play and help us to continue to win. And so, yeah, stars matter, shirt. My wife could point out, that's a, that's a, that's a really good guy, right? But as I said, those, that pool lineman is not as big as some of the others. I mean, we shouldn't go get them. It doesn't mean we're not working to go get those guys. And like I said, it doesn't mean that we're done either. And that's a long way to December too. So. I mean, it's a couple of more questions. So. There's one super star guy, that's not home yet. Is that the star of pipeline or the hard to really get this, that most players work? You're getting this guy to say that. Absolutely.

4:36:26Yeah, I mean, I think you just look at the recent history all the way through or all the stickers on the wall in there. I mean, you know, yeah, we had Paris. He was with National Five Star guy, right? But then we had other, two other draft picks there that the one was in five star guy, right? Luke was in five-star, they had good players and they got developed. Those guys before, I got here, all the guys on the wall. Yeah, that's, you'd love to go get all of those guys. But do they fit the next up round guys, so the four-star guys, are they really a four-star? Are they really fit? Do they really want to do that? From a pipeline online, you just look on the wall in the room and you've seen all those guys that have come from all different levels. How would you say that you're in the evaluations now? When you're dealing with so many people wanting to hear before they even play the game, they would do your idea off of the rise. They'd be like, it seems like the process is just kind of awesome. It's a way of being about a dilation, right? It's about attention and all of the cases.

4:37:26But how much harder would that be? If you're new, when you're looking at a kid who's gotten the size you've looked at, that you're looking for, but maybe the film isn't there, maybe the camp's performable. What you want to do is see. How do you get the image to understand? I think you got to feel through the relationship of what the kid, maybe the relationship with the coach, and just being frank and honest with him. I'm not smart enough to tell this guy one thing, this guy the other and circle back and all of a sudden you come back and it's like, what was the message you gave here? He was trying to be as straight and communicative as you can. I still don't think, though, you get into early June of the year, first two or three games, which we're going to do. And guys that we felt like right there you needed to see. That's when the next wave of offers and recruiting stuff goes into. If the kids just looking for a check mark on the internet, I've probably failed at that my entire career early on until you know that they're a bug guy. To be clear, you set up now the public, don't we? Can I have a small, big, big boss? You?

4:38:26Yeah. I wouldn't love to block you, but... With one leg or four, which you like. Just some cool... Just some cool... Just some cool... I'm sorry to have you in here, too. You got you. You got three guys. Last question for coach. Yeah, they all got over to go. Two of those starts that we got Josh, he's a dryer, he's dead, and he's 15. He's got one, he's going to have 12 or not. Where do thoughts of experience show up? It's within watches, day, day, and day. The doubt is out. And it's a 24-day battle. It could be, depend on the day. Like, you're in the dull drums and the grind of camp. Practice 12, 13, 14. That veteran guy that kind of grabs the guys, like, fellas, we've been here. Let's go. This is the Lord's talk. We got to pick it up. We got to go. It could be in a situational field. It's an hour, it's like, eights. We're going to third down period. Well, it's not just another play. Hey, it's just third down. Now, they come over walls. They're butts in, watch the picks, watch the twists. Whatever the patterns may be. I think it'll show them in the games. When we hit the first real adversity through whatever game,

4:39:27or whatever quarter, or whatever drive that shows up, then that's the next time I'm going to show up. As you said, there's gamesmanship there. They've been in there, and they know now it's not the first time. Whoa, what's happening? Hey, this is happening. Here's how we get through it. I think I'm super smart. There's no way. That's something that you think that you guys can just manifest in the last few years with a frame of center to the tackles. Obviously, I don't know. Like, do you guys think you were missing all of the good and bad in the middle of the track? You just have veteran experience guys. You know, you had Matt there, played a lot of ball. You had Donnie who was coming into it, but then you're replacing the three new guys. One coming from across the country, and another two guys that were coming into it. So yeah, my experience helps the time. What's the experience you've said? I've started this many games, which means he's played this many thousand reps. I've started this many games. I've had this many reps in the red zone, this many in it. Whatever situation it may be. Right tackle, my freshman year. Six three right tackle, turn of black.

4:40:27So it was fun. But going to guard, you know, obviously it helps your drafts out and everything like that. But, you know, you don't have to snap the ball. That's pretty sick. You get both hands back. That's been kind of interesting. I know what kind of like at the end of spring a little bit when I was going in with there. I literally did not use my right hand for a while. I come up the ball. But obviously we've developed and we're good with that. So it's been a good experience. I know like me, Luke, you know, take as well, I'll play in some right, play in some right guard. So I ask him questions, asking Donnie questions on the other side of the ball. I don't know. I love it. I mean, I just love playing football. So I'm killed with whatever. So good. What's different with Chip Kelly is the office coordinator right now. What you notice with the run game. What do you feel is different? We run the rock. We pound the rock man. It's isn't really fun this year. What does that mean? When you say that, what pound the rock? What does that mean in your vernacular? I just think the way we run out of the ball and the schemes are going to implement this

4:41:32year. It's been very, very difficult for teams to combat that. I think the amazing offensive lines of Coach Kelly, coach R, obviously coach day and coach Rai. I think they've come together and made some really, really fun plays. Not only, you know, obviously like really good schemes, but there's some cool plays in the world. I know we've loved to run. I remember my freshman year and last year, our defense has been number one defense in the country. And now we've been able to really not, obviously we're not going to beat him up or anything like that. We've been able to move a little bit. So it's been fun seeing that and seeing the guys really get into it. And I think Coach Kelly has been awesome and effective. He's a very open-minded coach. We're kind of stuffy tries. So like we'll be reading the script or reading whatever we're like, this is what we're going to run this up to this. Like, okay. It hits like 40 yards. And like, this is the coolest thing ever. So I'm really excited for this year. I think everyone should be too. All right, Carson. Thank you.

4:42:32Thank you. Thanks for having me. Thanks for having me. Yeah, no, I got a little blue color. Yeah. You too. Yeah. Amazing. I can't believe it. I'm going to be surprised. Yeah. I think you're going to be able to do it. All right. Cool. Perfect. Like we used three tight ends and two running backs. Our formation thing, that could be the full backing up situation. So there's a lot of different things you can do in short hours. But a little bit of a tribute to Coach Hayes and what he means is for Joey Kaufman. Plumb is this back. It's over to the left. Chip, did you look back? Not even your two months, 15 spring branches. There's something you feel best about when you've been able to accomplish with... Well, I don't kind of say anything because I didn't think it's that. But I think the most impressive thing since I've been here is how we're going to close this for both of you. You know, some programs talk about a brother. This is really a brother. Our practices, as we talked about how there are differences. There are highly competitive, but they're not coming back. And those guys really work very, very well together.

4:43:35Both the whole line of the D line and the second year of the receivers. The competition is the best there is in the country. That makes you better. But I think sometimes competition, you know guys can lash out. You can really combat them. And then I'll send the fight points out of fight works out. We're trying to accomplish a good football. But I think the way these guys cooperated and worked together as a group is especially bomb. I think you're even going to need to go to the closest team and the most connected teams. Everyone's up ahead. Over to the right here. Andy Baxter, I'm glad I'm in the room. Chip, obviously didn't know what I was talking about. Jared Ryan, but I'm not good. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all new drink lineup at McDonald's. I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's. But the new drink lineup, I mean, it takes things to another level. They've got delicious caffeinated refresher like the strawberry watermelon refresher crafted sodas like the Spriteberry blast. And now the all new Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer. We're talking about a total game changer made with Red Bull.

4:44:38It's mixed with blue raspberry flavor and topped with freeze dried dragon fruit. Oh McDonald's has given us a refreshing new boost for your day. And the Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer is arriving just as you're heading back to the dorms for the fall semester. It's got a boost of energy and a kick of flavor when you need it the most. You know, powering through those lectures and studying sessions, you're going to need it. Kicking the afternoon slump or rallying for the weekend. Try one of the many new drinks like the Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer, also available with Red Bull Zero. Now at McDonald's. I love days like these at the pool, but my moderate to severe plaques rise is can sometimes take me out of the moment. I'm ready to make a splash with clear skin thanks to SkyRizzy, RisenKissamabRizzah. SkyRizzy is a prescription only injection for adults who are candidates for systemic or phototherapy. At four months, most people saw 90% clear skin when measured from head to toe. And many were even 100% plaque free. People also saw significant improvement in psoriasis symptoms of pain, redness, itching and burning.

4:45:41Don't use if allergic to SkyRizzy, serious allergic reactions, increased infections, or lower ability to fight that may occur. Before treatment, get checked for infections and tuberculosis. Tell your doctor about any flu-like symptoms or vaccines. Now there's nothing on my skin thanks to SkyRizzy. And that means everything. Ask your doctor about SkyRizzy.

And the mechanism as you're minding me and the other 14-pack sessions with everybody can be special. Like, you know, and JJ's over a lifetime to play ralsal.

4:46:42But, you know, I think all of the whole of the chronology that's been really good things, watching him in this room, and for all of them, you know, I eventually with the offensive line, I came in with the blindsway. I have no opinions for, not that I really just wide-eyed and just observed them. But, you know, that I think that wider shape is really special. I think there's a budget as in that. And again, you have to play multiple games after the regular season is over. You know, by sure you're going to be in depth like that. I mean, the fact that it's, you feel a little bit comfortable right now. We get some guys in there that can make some plays with the printer. And that really dictates how people are going to defend you. You know, so you got a couple of really good running bets. You know, so, are they going to load the box or are you really going to load the box? I mean, those guys are one of one coverage, but then it's the core bet just responsibility to decide what that would get them all involved next. So, we're going to do the, let's double covers. There are a couple covers. There are a couple covers in there. It's really a bit later, but it's going to be profitable. So, having too many weapons is a good problem to have. Second, we're all at Pat Murphy, 24-7 sports.

4:47:45Chip, we've talked a lot about the quarterbacks maybe by the starting spot. But some of the younger guys, what have you seen from them? We got knocked down and seen more of them today, and we'll probably have what's your assessment of them as they kind of getting this? I always, and someone pressed with young guys that enrolled early in watching how they get acclimated and what they do. You know, you look at Julie and in there and in JJ. They should be in a hot, much lighter than high school. And they're out here playing in front of 80,000 people. And they've really progressed when you watch that and made these in listening to them. And they interpret, you know, so basically the whole concept is, we throw them in the deep end and see if they can swim. You know, there's three in maybe anything. We don't put the install in with, hey, you guys are in, stop wearing an install. This is the older players. And then you guys, you know, go set the kitty table and we're just going to do the really simple things with you. You know, they get it all in the more they can digest the more when you're in a row and when you're checking for understanding and asking questions.

4:48:47And they can fit back to you the more confidence you have when they get in there with the players that you can call for. So those guys have been in process. They're still learning, you know, they were the guys today that were kind of looking around and saying, that's the people here along with the offensive coordinator and the corporate coach because I just got lucky. Because I'd actually never been in the stadium until yesterday when we had our 14th practice in there. So I play Ohio State lunch when I was at Oregon, that was in the Rose Bulls High. I'd never been actually in the stadium until yesterday. So I taught myself and I went to the stadium today, the Ohio State. And 80,000 for spring and that's a person. Time for just a few more folks over here to the right, Bill and Davis, Delaware, because that given what you just said about throwing them into the deep end. What stood out the most debauchery was progression through 15 practices and where he is and what you guys had out of spring? Julian is a very fast processor. You know, he really thinks very, very quickly. He makes really quick decisions. He doesn't stick on him and really taking progress.

4:49:49And he sees things really well for a young part and not having to expose a lot of college defenses. And especially what Jim does. Jim can make the young freshman hard work. Proc with some of the stuff he does. But I never saw that with deals and that's been impressive his ability to retain him and JJ. The compliment I would say is if you got here and you didn't know what class they were going to say, there's no going to be a freshman in terms of how they pick things up. And you know, sometimes freshmen act like freshmen. But the guys you are special, they don't act like freshmen. You know, they act like football parents. And those are two guys that are on their campus. Far left, Camerity, Robinson, the athletic. You on top of the freshmen and JJ was the same. And I run a second half there. You talk about how deep you need to be in this era of college football. But as you search for Army 3, what did you see from them today? What has their growth been like in the business spring?

4:50:51Yeah, James really flashed early for me not knowing again. It's just that I don't worry about what the background is. Where they're from, who they are. The disc type, the stars, the stars, the stars. They're all black eyed. This is how they do. And I think James is a really good field of vision. I think the things, I thought said, it's really good things today. TC is another guy who really came along during the spring. And we're constantly talking in our staff meetings about that. We're very cognizant of the fact that the class situation has changed. So you have to develop that that, you know, used to be maybe have a parent and a spare. It was one of the most difficult. I think you may have to have one of them. You're talking about 16-17 games. You're really going to be tested that way. So I was really happy with how those young guys, if they have come along here in the 15-20 sessions of time. I hope you're to the right. Tim May, Tim May podcast. Thank you, Jerry. You have no one podcast? Yeah. This guy's all happy to be next to the next. I'm really glad you're here. I'm sure.

4:51:51You're more cool. He was some juice of the other name. Definitely. I like it. It's not just the last one. It's the hot one. It's the hot one. Yeah. Just two quickies. Remember one, you feel compelled to let these quarterbacks over. They stand here. You know, it's coming up to you. You know what I mean? Yeah. You know, where's that go? I mean, in your mind. That holds the time of the staff and visit beyond the mind. I mean, he does an unbelievable job of, I think, all our players understand where they fit. And what the country is and what we're going to work with. This isn't, you know, we're not going to come back. But we do it after every day. They know where they spend our first one, after two, after three, after four. We greet everything. They're going to cost us feedback in terms of where we are. And then after 15, we're treated at today. But we can't do it unless you watch the film. And you can really look at the things. Because you may see something when you're on the sideline. You know, why did you make that decision? Well, I couldn't really see if you would say, if you were to do well. It's okay. Now I understand why you made that decision.

4:52:52So, you know, they don't love meetings with other players. And that's always been the best. So this week during, you know, between Monday through Friday and February, we're all scheduled. No one's going to be going to recruit you because we'll have to. And we're all going to be in a set of every position. You know, offensive line. You're going to be in a set of line. I never say to you, you're going to be, everybody's going to sit down with your position. You know, they fit. You know, you see that. When you feel a pressure with the transfer portal, you know, you've been a head coach for a long time. Meaning, is that one of your mind that TGD? Yeah, I think it all works well. I don't think it's pressure. But I think you just open lines of communication and everybody knows, you know, which one of your evaluations will escape the training sessions that we have. Guys, we've got to have, we've got to be real quick. The last two questions. Dan Hope and then Rob Alter. When do you feel like you need to have a starting quarterback named by and what are the big things you're going to be looking for between now and then and determined to do that guy's going to be? We're going to be doing it in college football. You're going to be in training sessions.

4:53:52You know, in the obseason. And then we'll go back to working with Mick in the way from getting bigger and faster, getting stronger. They'll have organized activities themselves. They do a really good job of that. But once there's a football out, like we're not allowed to be there to evaluate and be obsessed. So they're really from a football center on their own until August. So, I think that's a good thing. I think we're going to be obsessed. So they're really from a football center on their own until August. So, you always want to do it earlier. But I also believe every time I've been involved in this, it kind of happens organically and authentically. Because the players are not. If you say that, when you say we're going to be in a jail, they all think it's ten. They know. They're under lock-room of the everyday. Players understand, you know, who they feel is the guy. And most of the time, the decision is very obvious. You know, you just say this is where we are with it.

4:54:52But that timetable thing, I can't give you an exact timetable on that. So, Rob. Chip, you talked about you. But typically, your experience you've done, you're getting like Tim set a long time. How long does it take for the game to slow down for a jail and to be? I think it depends on the individual. I've had some kids. More early, you know, when you were like, wow, Parker's Mario was like that. Remember, fifth of the second practice. He got to the fifth reading direction throughout the year and it was the game. And I asked him, why do that? That's why, it's this one, I just said. Why did you do that? Because I don't know what we call that defense, but there was like a lot of guys over there. I didn't see like there was anybody over there. But for him to process it, that thing was right. He came back in the day, whether that was cover 60 of the day, cover 60 of the day. I mean, what you guys call the cover 60 is, but they all happened to be different. I've got guys that for two years, so you know, they're just, you know,

4:55:54really struggling and the light bulb comes off and you're a bulb. They got it, so everybody has different brain styles. You know, our job and the evaluation process is to kind of find those learning styles. And they learn, they're an auditory learner, you know, to learn my field. Is it more, a field guy, you know, a more film guy, you know, it's all different. And I think we have to keep holding your prodding. And for us, his coach is, that's the challenge too, is what is the best learning style? And how can we do that? Because education basically is just a transportation knowledge. But it really doesn't matter what I know or what I know, it matters what they know. That's always kind of what we're working on and studying and thinking about. Kind of where we are and how much can they handle and then how much is too much, you know. Because this could be a great plan. I agree 100 percent. But if you don't feel too happy, then why are we wise again, you know, maybe that's this whole field of process that we're all, they're going to ask for what happens. And often says that identity sort of coaches really running quarterbacks.

4:56:57And something you always sort of lean toward or is it year by year case by case? What advantages do you like about it? Because all your guys can run a little bit. Yeah, I think a running quarterback causes problems for the events. So when, when plays break down, the unescalable plays, if you just go back to the recent Super Bowl. On that last part, there are two big plays from the home front. But catch from home is another one of them. Any time a colleague designed a quarterback runs for Pat. But when the defense matches up and plays two men in terms of back to the quarterback, well, maybe the best decision is to take off. The second one is not only unique score. A lot of guys don't only want to look side. And there's times when we have time to understand if you ever run a quarterback. When we talk about the best ability, the best ability is available. You're not going to be shoulder to take people wrong. We are always looking for quarterbacks that have the ability to run. We're not looking for running backs that you've brought. You're not going to see us 20 times a game and we're running the quarterback.

4:57:59There are people that run offensive titles that are really successful with it. But with this group we have, right now that's not. Now they can't hurt you with the feet. Little didn't when he was a case date. Obviously, they went to a couple of times today. He airs a couple of times today. Lincoln's a really, really good athlete. Julian can run. But we're not calling the design quarterback runs for a year. You're not going to see, you know, I think tremendous amount of it was back for coaches and they've not here. The straight T is run as far as you go. We are not going to see the way. So we are not going to snap it and run the quarterback. I saw the quarterback now. It's not. But it is a, it's another weapon. It also keeps defenses on. You know, three defense events. You're going to continue to bend. The quarterback closes the edge. You're going to be in the first down. Well, then the defense events, the backstab and the outside of the team. They're in the quarterback. Well, they're making one of them all up. And the end of all up. Sometimes they don't run any of our quarterback. Really, it's a block. It's a resource possible for a defender to defend. It was cheating and to fitting in on the run. But then his responsibility is to make the defense be honest.

4:58:59And that's really erred to that a couple times today. And we had a block that's taking the space in there. So we're going to take a block around the head. What happens in the next pivot defense? Why? And we're going to get to it and it will chance to end the ball off the right now. Coach, thank you so much for your time and thank you for being a blockhead. All right. Thanks. Thank you. Thank you to whatever against Youngstown State. I'd be so upset coming out of the game. But seeing how violent this game is from this perspective. Now you have to say, hey, okay, not only within games, can we keep guys fresh? Right. But can we do that so that when you get to the last few games in the season that act that are the big ones? Right. The ones that you're judged off of when you get to the game, are we healthier? I think that's it's kind of a both a both-hand, right? So I feel confident with five guys and that's going to be a week to week. You know what I mean? Like these guys know, I think honestly, who starts to be week to week if you display during the week of practice that you're locked in and somebody else has a bad mental week?

4:59:59Well, I can't reward you with starting if you have six mental errors during the week. You know what I mean? Just because you started last week. So I think it's got to be that iron sharp and iron constant competition through the whole fall. That looks like something that James will deny is what we do in the play. I think that's what kind of a view as he was rooted to. But is that part of which one has to drive you then? Was it driving you then? Then you just assumed that was kind of the case when you played anyway. I always felt when I was here that they were trying to out-requit me, which is the reality, right? Yeah. Which is why it prepares you so well for the National Football League. That's why Ohio State prepares you so well for the League because now it's like they're trying to out-draft you. And so I used that as fuel. But I also thought firsthand, you know, like there was a season where it was John Kerr, Marcus Freeman, certain guys rotating week to week. And so I thought like should it fit to happen to them that could happen to me. So I just tried to be a certain way in practice. Like I tell the guys all the time you have to control the things that take no talent. You have to eliminate all the looks. If you loaf on the field, you're a traitor. Like you should just go play for their team.

5:00:59Like you can't be coaching effort. And then you can't have mental errors. Because if you have a mental error, then you can't trust you. So those are the two things I always as a player was like, all right, you're not going to catch me loafing. And you're definitely not going to catch me not knowing what I'm supposed to do. I might get beat and that's inevitable. It's football, everyone's on scholarship, right? But those two things you control every single day. What's the next thing that you suddenly start experiencing? I think it's just the end, you know, we haven't done like any of my series. You know what I mean? So we know you can tackle and all that. But I think it's just the repetitive grind of a football game from in the box, the constant. And he's been he's been willing so far, you know what I mean as far as his hand placement has been good. Even more on the strike. He's tough. So it's just continuing to have him challenged to there's plays right now where he's seeing it from the first time from the Wildbacker. So the next time he sees it, maybe throw catch tackle is up in the reception. You know what I mean? Because he's seen it before from that perspective.

5:01:59Everything he's seen before this has been from top down off the shelf, right? So now it's dropping back, that'll drive him so he's made great progress. And I'm really happy with how son he's done. James, look at that recruiting. It seems like it's going really well for you. Honestly, you can't talk about specific recruits, but just overall how do you feel like that's going in and are you enjoying the recruiting? I am. I am enjoying it. I think it's fun to build relationships and get to know so many different types of kids, you know. Ohio State presents opportunity, right? And so many different ways. You're not going to get developed better anywhere else in the country. You have the largest fan base, largest alumni, and there's this opportunity everywhere, right? So you try to just like explain your passion for the school that did so much for you, you know, especially being an out of state kid, not being formal, Ohio. And then realizing how much Ohio State changed my life. And so now you communicate that to other young kids who kind of see it and try to tell them the vision like where you can get to.

5:03:04I think the fun thing for me is that most of the kids I'm recruiting are way more athletic than I ever was. So it's like I tell them if I can the only way I survived in the NFL eight years was the fact that I had football intelligence, like I knew where I was going. And so now if I can impart that information on kids who are extremely athletic, well now you're not you got something special. How much of you guys have already talked about long season and the need to play more now? Well, I think yeah, you're going to have to have depth. That's just the reality, right? It's a longer season. There's more game and there's no excuse to have placed like here. Like if you're playing with a maybe a guy who was third or fourth, that doesn't matter. You know, like you got to be ready to go. So I think depth is crucial at all of the vision. Because injuries are going to happen there's part of football. You know, you never want to wish it upon anyone and you're certainly not. But it's just you can't be naive to think that you're just going to have every single starter healthy for the whole season.

5:04:09You talked about your mentality as a player and then you're recruiting different players than you were. How do you, how do you marry that when they made that same mentality that you need and what you want them to have? Well, you figure that out when you get to know them. And there are certainly some kids that you start to recruit to where you see like, you know what? Ohio State might be too big. It might be too big for them. You know what I mean? And so it's not for everybody. You have to want to come in and compete against the best and realize that you have to win every single game. It'd be the best in the world of what you do. That's the expectations. That Ohio State. And that's certainly not for everyone. And that's okay. But you have to through the process kind of find out who has that mentality, who really craves football. You know, like who craves football versus a lot of the other fluff that kind of comes with it? Who craves ball? Because when they crave football, then the other stuff will take care of itself, right? And we'll just keep getting better and better and better if they want to be the best. You just said you were two more questions for game. Yeah, that's I mean, I think that's your job as recruiters.

5:05:10You got to figure out what's the mindset of the kid. And are they are they serious about football? And you have to talk to the people that are around them and you got to figure out how to talk to coaches. You just got to try to figure out like who loves ball. And they had a felt they do the same thing, right? Now they're attending the math of about the money. And they're saying, okay, we're going to get this person money at the change their motivation. Or they still love balls. So now it means in college with the same thing. Like who actually wants to be the best or who just likes the attention that comes with playing football? James, I've known as a VRT. He talks about it with G. He's a little bit of the elevation from our bell from End of Less. And obviously missing time last year with the injury. But where he's at now versus the expectation that he had to move this way. Our bell is, I mean, showing a lot of progress. You know, most importantly, you know, mentally with the playbook and everything. I think our bell last year there was a couple things, right? Because of injuries on the D-line and camp. You know, he moved the end for a little bit. He got him off the ball and then he had an injury and he kind of missed some time.

5:06:12He wasn't an early mid-year, you know, so he comes in right in the summer. And so he missed some reps there. So the see where he's at right now is extremely impressive. And for a guy of that size and that much power and his ability to run. He's a special athlete. And so our bell has had a good spring. He's got to continue to dive into the playbook and got to continue to learn all the little things. And as you go, right? We started seeing new schemes, new schemes, things build. And it becomes kind of a lot. He's the guy who continued to comb through it all because athletically, you know, he's one of the most gifted guys that we have in the room. I know. And I probably make sure his foot is perfect. What has changed? I think you've been recruited to now that you're visiting. I feel like you're there on the mental differences. You've noticed me here on the internet. No, I think it still comes down for the most part. Like, NIL is certainly an aspect for some. For some, it could be the most important thing. It's always a factor. But I think you still just need to find out who are the kids that love football.

5:07:13And they want to be developed. And it's about the relationship to an extent. Like, a relationship gets you to the final stretch. For some kids, NIL might be the thing that pushes them over the top. I mean, I don't know. Like, every kid is so different, right? I try to view it as you're just building relationships. And are you going to get a young man to trust you to develop them? And to not only the player that they want to be, but the person that they want to be in the future. And can you convince mom and dad that you're the right person to do that? You know what I mean? So I think one of the things that is helpful is my playing experience. I think, you know, when you've played and you've done it, and the drill that you're doing, you know that they work. You're not going to waste your time on stuff that doesn't work. And then the fact that, you know, I am blessed to be at my alma mater. You know, if there's no sense of trying to leave here. You know, I didn't get the question. I get a ton. What do you see yourself in five years? I'm like, where I'm sitting? My alma mater. You know, my kids love it in Columbus, obviously. I love Ohio State.

5:08:13So I think those are things that can kind of be in the vanity. Okay, but I know you've been working with you. You know, we've kicked off and put teams as well as books that look like for you. And you're getting involved in that thing. Yeah, it's awesome. Maybe I love it because it gives you an opportunity to coach the whole team. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all-new drink lineup at McDonald's. I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's. But the new drink lineup, I mean, it takes things to another level.

Like special teams with a spot where the whole team probably minus the quarterbacks, right? Is all in one team room and one meeting room. You get to directly impact other positions and just your own.

5:11:16And I think it also gives you a little bit of urgency to your own room. When you're in there every single time you better be making an impact on punks. If you're a linebacker, you better be making an impact on kickoff return. You better be making an impact, right? Because your coach is in there all the time. So it's been nice. And there's a lot of stuff that I think our coaches have done to push that sense of team when you're in special teams that we every position matters. Seriously, someone has been in a foul. What do you think will be in a foul? Is doing them a kickoff now? And even if that's even could be good for college? I mean, the thing that stands to take away like the surprise on side, you know what I mean? But all these rules are changing so much for the safety of the game. I mean, I think it's only a matter of time before it triples down. It seems like everything's tripled down. So we'll see. As of right now, we'll keep things going the way they are. All right, James. Thank you. Thanks, guys. You're welcome.

5:12:20Everyday. So. I mean, we had this finisher at the end of practice where I had to make five in a row and going all the way back to 50. It was actually the people who came to end it. And yeah, I just had to make five in a row where we were running. And so we got it. We ran, but we learned one. I did one time. Yeah. I know it's keeping you short track. I'll take it. That way. You were at all moments that time. Yeah, for a little bit. You know, you always been a performer in those kind of moments. And I felt like I got the team down. But at the same time, I knew that those guys had confidence in me and actually talking with my teammates, Jack and GTE and those kind of guys really got around me. It really helped me. But as a kicker, you kind of just got to wipe it clean and go to the next play. But yeah, you definitely want to make those kicks. Is that something you had to process like a week's after or is it just something that you got over a big game?

5:13:22It's something you have to get over mid game as a kicker. You can't let their last kick affect you. So just trying to get through it and get through the game. And I knew I could have made that kick. I mean, it's it's yeah, it's just one of those ones that got away from you. But you always look forward to the next one. And you always have to correct your mind and get ready for that. I probably say the same as last year. I feel just as confident as I did last year, even though I didn't get too many attempts from deep to show that. But still feel just as confident as I should. 55, 60. Yeah, right around there, right in there. Yeah. That's every kicker's true. That's every kicker's being. I mean, you saw the guy from FSU a couple weeks ago. That's my buddy, Ryan Fitzgerald. Really, really great kicker. But everybody wants that opportunity to show everybody what you can do. What did you ask me? What did you make from year to year? Trying to become more consistent always.

5:14:22You can always become more consistent. You're going to miss every once in a while. But just trying to limit the mistakes and the misses that you do have to just so that you can become as perfect as possible. I guess is the way I would put it. I mean, the standard is the standard here. And even we didn't live up to it last year. So you got to correct it and get better. It's a lot of things. It's a ball contact. It's confidence in your teammates. It's trusting that the ball is going to be there when it's there. It's getting more down the field on your follow through. It's not falling through straighter. Yeah, but some of that really worked on us falling through straighter this past all season. So a lot of my balls were going left towards the end of the year. So I had to correct that. And some of you can't really correct it in the season. You want to mess with it. But yeah, I corrected that for some season. Coach, as Coach Dave said, you don't have any experience in all of those special things now. It's a beautiful, solid, beautiful, and it's pretty stressful. I have. And I really like it. I like Coach Dave, being around the specialist and all the special teams.

5:15:24It's just for us more involved. It feels of a higher importance this year. I think you guys saw that in the first game. He's done a great job. Him and Coach Keys and Gunner Danners. They've done a really good job. So yeah, I feel I feel it's good. Why do you specifically feel now? Like, where does that show up do you think you have a coach lane and a higher coach? I think the fact that he's paying more attention to special teams. He's seeing the good things that we do. And so he has more confidence and has to put us out there. And give guys like Joe a chance. And you know, he pays more attention to things like that. So it's better for us so that we can thrive in those situations that we didn't thrive in last year. And he has the ability to put us out there because his call is a final call. With Joe, your folder or your ball camp always that the guy who's the starting partner is also the starting partner. Me and Joe got a lot of work over the off season to get him there. And it's not always who the starting partner is. It's just that he's the best at holding.

5:16:24So we got the John. Well, you're done every good job. Second year and then being here. I mean, me and John are like I said, me and John and Joe are like three best friends off the field. And we work a lot on stuff on the field and nobody's around. And so yeah, we've definitely built a good camaraderie between the guys and yeah, I love Joe. Great guy. How does it make a difference for you guys and me and stay in the other position coaches? I don't know what it's going to be about. It's just it makes you feel like he has more confidence in you when he's putting you out there because he's watched it a lot more. I know for sure on the kickoff reps, he watches kickoff coverage all the time. He loves to see the guys running down the field. And we actually made that a really big point of emphasis this past game to run through the goal lines. I joined my teammates run through the goal line. It was pretty fun. I want you to help you guys, but now there's only their coaches in Rob and Gunner from the other side. I mean Gunner was out there last year, but he couldn't give us coaching technique critiquing on the field.

5:17:25But at halftime, he would he would talk to us and Gunner played at BC. He was a long sapper. So he provides really good insight into kind of like a, I would compare him to like Brad Robinson. My freshman year gives you good insight. It's kind of like a veteran guy. So like when when things aren't going your way on the field or you're not playing up to the level that you want to, he's kind of there to calm you down and tell you like, hey, like I've been there before, like the veteran guy even though he's a coach yet. So yeah, it's very nice. What is the last question you guys? Rob brings a lot. Man, he's he's one of those. He brings a lot of pressure to it. He makes you feel that every kid really matters. He's really good. He definitely helps with the coverage. The coverage has been much better this season than they haven't had to cover yet. But you can just tell from the guys running down. They're a lot more passionate about it. There's bigger emphasis on it. Thank you, Jay. Thank you. Thanks, guys. Thank you.

5:18:25It was just the first two weeks this season, yeah, like I just said that it probably was the best way to play. But it didn't take back from my want to be out there in the game. But you know, guys stepped up. It's competitive excellence. Guys executed. And so now I'm just grateful to be back and doing what I can. And it's just a frustrated player and it had coach knows was best for him. I thought I was good to go and a lot of people told me I wasn't. I was like, what do you mean I'm fine? And then coach they had to talk me off the cliff a little bit. But it's just trying to protect me for myself. I have a blessed with opportunity to play a lot of ball this year. And so it was just like look man, let's calm down for these weeks and we'll get you back after the buy. But I wasn't the most happy camper in the world for a good minute there.

5:19:26But it is what is reprintable. How special was it playing back then? It was amazing. As a senior I know I only have a limited amount of opportunities left to play in the horseshoe. So just running out of the tunnel. I've never said I'd take the game of granted but knowing that I like the number of times I have to do that's whaling down. Kind of way to wait on me those first few games. And so just playing the game to the highest levels fast as I can and just taking it all in in the moment. I have a clue that what Jackson was going to do. Some more entries that way in your mind. He looked like what did it all get. And that's probably the people who want to come back. Maybe you didn't. I mean when it happened I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't take the route. He did obviously. But like I was like oh my gosh what happened. And it was a kind of a moment of like okay how long is it going to take.

5:20:26And then everyone's like it's an arm training to do like we don't we don't know like everyone's body heals differently. And so just trying to put good things in my body. So I heal as fast as I can and trying to get like I've been arrest doing everything to train me to do everything. Coach Ryan Coach Day told me to do to try to heal as fast as I could and we're about on the field. So there are moments of uncertainty. Do you definitely remember everyone feeling differently? No, no. What are you talking about? What are you feeling that? But I think you have to come back and you can go through all the hard and the first few ways. And then you have to be with that to go on the worst of year. Yeah, no there are definitely moments of frustration. I'm not going to lie about that. But our training staff of the most do solo shine Tyler. Um, Karla Kelly always gave one there to try to trust the plan. They said that they've seen this type of thing happen numerous times. And they know that it's going to take a lot of life. You're going to be going on the top of the field.

5:21:27And so it's, you know, think of it now. It's kind of funny. But in the moment I was like don't tell me that. But it's, you know, it is what it is. What do you think of? I think it played great. You know, it's a competitive excellence that we talked about here, you know, making plan. You know, it was called and also some of us called and he didn't look as a job. No, it's always great seeing young guys as a single thing. But awesome going out there and doing this thing. You know, we all know we could do it. There was not a doubt in my mind. He was going to go out there and show us. But it was great seeing 67. You know, you know, lean up in those games. I don't know what it mean. You know, give him tips. What do you want, Colin? Yeah, I know. I would, you know, make my voice known here and there. But he's already on his stuff. You know, I do like little new on things. I mean, like, like if he does this, he might do this because learning from my mistakes. I was like, hey, like, you can do this.

5:22:28So you don't make the same mistake I did. But Austin's a fantastic athlete. You know, he's strong as not. And so he did fantastic doing what he does. Well, keep it you. He does much down between, you know, several in your little malady and coming back because time heals all. I mean, was it was that the thinking was that hard to grasp it sitting out with the maybe tough and the long run the right thing? Yeah, those those are difficult concepts from the grass. You know, I've always been a stubborn kid. You know, my mom, but you know, patients, patients hasn't always been my thing. So when it happened, I was like, I'll be back in two weeks. And in two weeks, Canada, I was like, it's the hurts. But it was just, you know, trust in the process. And I know that the our our chain of staff knows what they're doing. And I knew they're getting back on the field. And so now that I'm on the field, just keep on going. Yeah, 100% less. We feel happy. Feel happy. So great. God, what do you guys have a lot of experience on this line when you add a guy like with that level experience?

5:23:28How much does that help in that center position when we have so much? Yeah, you know, I'm very grateful. I would say that the tip of the spear of our offense, I would say, they'll be like, if teams play us, they're not going to come out and exactly what we think they're going to do. Because that's just, you know, game plan. But set set communicates throughout the entire almost down to the snap count of what we have to do to make sure all guys on the same page. There'll be times where well is in this cadence. And he like yells at me like, hey, we're going over here. And so I know that just follow what he says. And then we're going to make a good play out of it. What do you make of rotation and paper? And your experience of guard? How does one of the pros you have maybe rotate that position? Well, it's a great coach for our question. I just play a left guard. I know that both guys are very talented.

5:24:28I know that when they're in the game, they're trying to prove themselves. And so just having to compete, I and guys getting after it. And as long as we move the ball and get to the end of it. And I don't think anyone cares if they do, doesn't it? All right. Not in the back. Thanks, dog. We definitely want to be more disruptive and get more sacks. But, you know, if anyone's going to get to Ohio State, they get the ball out fast. They're not going to let us rush them. Because they know, like, what's going to happen. These are just smart. They know not the whole of the ball. You know, they quick screens, quick passes. But if they hold the ball, it'll be a completely different story. Tell us how you brought up like this. Do you want to get behind the left side? Do you want to get the ball out fast? Yeah, it's frustrating, but you know, it is what it is. You know, we cut out half their game plan just by being explosive dealing. Like, explosive dealing. Hey, what would the ligies come on for time? I'm going to tell you in the last couple of years. You know, you've been around them instead.

5:25:28What's different about him is approach, etc. I say Ty is definitely more of a leader now. He leads the whole D-line, the whole interior. He's that head guy you go to if you need advice for anything. He leads as a great example for the young guys. Yeah, he's almost like his silent partner a little bit. But he, last year, especially, he seemed to be in the right place at the right time along. That's not a trick. I mean, what do you call that? A maturity? I mean, why would you call him? I'll say it's just his dedication to the game. He takes that serious, the way he's dying, his everything. He's topical natural on recovery. Yeah. Everything you need is a player. And then for you, what's different about you three years ago? I mean, right now, as you get ready for this season, obviously you want to stay healthy. He thinks like that moment. Where are you better at the player? I think I'm better everywhere. I'm not trying to be like a big head. But I think I'm taking a big step since last year. You know, I think the whole deadline has been, I'm just ready to show it next Saturday.

5:26:29Yeah, and how will that show up in this deadline? Because it's veterans across the board. I mean, where are you all going to be known for? I think we're going to be the most disruptive group in the nation. And yeah, I think we'll face talk about how consistent you set for the loss of the game. Is your hand hand on it? What do you see in your battles with sets? I said, definitely knows what he's doing. He has a high IQ, you know, strong. Like he's stout. He's not like a pushover or nothing like that. He's a great player. I'm glad we got him. How do you kind of see him lead that line? Is it better? I don't know. I mean, I say he knows what's going on. He tells other people what's going on. If you don't know the play, ask him. He's kind of that guy. Like he knows everything. He studies a lot. Strong. Fast. It's a big deal. But you know, it's good work. I think of the day I'm glad. Glad he's that guard. It is a better position for him.

5:27:30And he'll be a great guard in the future. Right. Last spring, I think it was we talked about the Josh Simmons. He thought the Mitchell belt was the best game in the past Russian style. How would you describe the way that you treat him? Mitch is playing basketball in grass, is what Coach Jacob. He has a unique style that cannot be reciprocated within anyone. He's a different athlete when he comes to thinking about this. I'll tell you, thank you. Thank you, Mr. You just want to treat that? I don't know. Mr. Mr. Meager Meager I'm not going to stand here. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Is that a good idea? Yeah. That's one of the right ones. It's just like the way it's used to. It's something crazy.

5:28:31Yeah. It's crazy. That's crazy. It's crazy. Yeah. It's crazy. It's crazy. It's crazy. Yeah. It's crazy. It's crazy. It's crazy. It's crazy. It's crazy. Yeah. That's a crazy thing coming back right now. Oh yeah. It's easy. It's easy, really easy. Yeah. What was it like... You were identify as a Leo guy, and he was not gonna be there. You know, you know. It's a bigger thing. Yeah. They had big plans for you. Right? Did you get you since then? Yeah. Definitely saw some likeness to my ability to be there in the meal. So I definitely was excited to get into that position and do what I could do best. I am excited to best my ability but of course those things change. You never know what to expect. so I'm just gonna hit a grind. We got to watch you excited. We're gonna help you watch your experiences. You seem to be playing on a hot level. They feel like that Saturday during the spring and situation. What did you feel going really right? I think for the majority of the spring, I've been feeling more confident myself in my meetings.

5:29:32Even with everything that's happening in the past, there's something to have. A lot to get from a lot to making these programs. So I think that kind of showed how Saturday we're just letting loose a little bit of display and you take time. You're going to be in more comfortable with the show. We actually have a lot of good news for you. I think you're definitely taking a second to just trust myself. The past couple years, it didn't help me out in the best way. Obviously, yeah. It's just very mental. Just like every day. Just counter-adventure or like doubt. It's like my mind is in all that. I think my mental area right now is really different. Do you feel all of my deep thoughts have been? What's that? Your ears tell me that wasn't it? Yeah, I don't usually get in. Yeah, I do feel home. I think these past two years, I've definitely been learning curve. But nothing now, more than ever, I'm definitely comfortable. I'm learning that, what I need to do, and my skillset, I've been taught me to do the dishes. What it looks like for me is to be the best possible version of myself in this position.

5:30:34I'm working with you. I think the biggest thing in our group is leadership. We have a lot of guys like you said in that room. The battle-testants, so to speak, something. Especially coming up in this ring and then to this fall, we need to be the anchor, as if it's a unit. You know, I need to show up every day. Game of hell. We've got a few players to talk to about really important. He always likes to play a lot of guys like you. Yeah. I think it's really game-down. Yeah. We've got a few players to talk to about really important. He always likes to play a lot of guys like you. Rotation, we can feel like it. You know, it's keeping your head on your foot. It's keeping your head on your foot. It's keeping your head on your foot. It's keeping your head on your foot. Especially with this new season, I'd expect that. You guys can see it in the outside. You don't know until it happens. I'm just trying to see what's going to happen this season. What is it that name? All these old guys that came back. Got all these young guys.

5:31:34Yeah, it's like a little brother, big brother, to do. You know, a lot of the guys have been there. I just want to help out and bring along the underguys. It's definitely a process in times, but I think. I love we sharing that room is very, very strong. And with that, I think it helps us get to anything. And any challenges that will be coming as well. Which maybe you already asked this training partner. That's what I was going to say. And they put in here and get them to this point. Yeah. You finally kind of maybe hit that beautiful star. It's a blessing in a second. Because you know, a lot of guys in my position. Not the same injuries as so I'm coming back. I'm just thankful that I'm here in the best university in the world and the best training staff in the government. So this point where I can be back to healthy and even better than healthy. Because I feel like I've better than what I was. It was humbling, I think. The journey was for me. I just, because I remember coming on how to say to something about a dream. I had dreams of being the best version myself, doing all the things you know,

5:32:34to act as you know, things happen. It took me about the surprise and the force, but I think it also gave me a lesson that I really needed. I mean, we lived needed to grow until a better version of such. I think the journey was needed and it was a blessing for me. Did you have a rough question? Do you ever think about it? I think. I can't do that, man. I love the sport too much to do that. You know, and I love the guys around me. I think that's the biggest thing that brought me back. It's just like, I can't do it to them. And you know, I just, I know we have what we can be on the field. So it's like, you would do everything I can to get back in the future. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe.

That's what I found myself. I always go into the future and think what I'm going to do this thing. Or next day and next day. But it's just like it's overwhelming. And it's like gave me stress.

5:35:38I think for me, it's just worried about some harm. And I experience this. It's like a horse for me. And I'm doing whatever I need to do or whatever. I'm skilling the sharpest. And I'm like, what do you have to do? I'm definitely last season. I think. It was kind of hard to like trust it last season. But I still think my body was at a hookah sandwich. Thank you. Thank you. You guys have a nice day. You get a bit of play to climb on the wall. And that's what the training is like. There you go. You talk with the past about the health point. And you'll be in the tactile senses. I'm going to go to your room. There you go. How much does that just mean? I'm going to go in here with the other guy. I'm going to go up to the top of this. And I'm going to go up to the top of this. I'm going to go up to the top of this. I think what Tiley can do. You have to appreciate what Tiley can client get last season. And the middle. And to go back on my experience, those guys did a great job of managing. And that's what I'm going to do. And so what you want to get out there. You want to get past rest. So you don't want to take those guys off. And like Tiley can rest. And you're tied.

5:36:38You're going to get tied to rest. So that's the thing that you can find out to rest. You've got to play the game. You've got to bonus with your gun. And leave that big guy with you. Talk about it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to chase the sex. We just chased on to the double first of all. But I think the most important thing, the contents of our defense. We have to play the final defense. We can do that. And we'll, you know, I'm okay. The sex is a number to me. There's many games that will change this effect. The quarter. The ball is three steps five, six, seven, seven. I can't read it out. I'll say, get your hands, match your hands. And we'll knock it out. Those are things that change things. And then when you do, you're less satisfied. You can pull the sex over context. Why do you keep that to all the places? You're never satisfied. You're never satisfied where you're at. You've got to continue to prove like you think our guys have done a great job. This screen will then stand in this hall and stand at the zack.

5:37:39I hope we've got a good question. But they really did tend to help us, right? Office could kind of get in and say, you know what I mean? We're not going to let these guys rush, but football. I can't control the, full of cameos, control the truck. And I think it's a nice thing to get. I hope we've got a shot. We got to put the team in the ball. So it really depends on the game. We can get going. I think that it seems like a good pass or something. Is it your way of coaching a veteran defensive front? And what is the challenge? I think the joy is the fact that those guys are all the guys now have some to look up to. A year ago, we didn't have that. We'd have a guy to set the ball. Now the jacks and team teams are tightly ready to do a great job. I'm setting the bar for you. So that's the problem. So now you can lay on the fetch and start to do something. Now the key is to stick in the system. It doesn't hit it. It's a group. It has to be stinking. Can we stick in the system? Can we play our play our heart? And we just say we have a talent. Talent is on a small part of what we have to do. It's a build and play heart. We've played our already good top. We've already got a top. We've already got a top. And I just couldn't believe that. And so now to get those guys to play through the heart. We're going to be playing every play. And that's what we're trying to write. And we're trying to make sure they don't see any points.

5:38:39You know that the match that can't fly. It seems like Thailand could get probably more successful than most of them. How much of that is like a natural ability, or is it that the stuff that you got? Well, we do ball. You know that he's the best. He's the best. He's the best. He's the best. How much of that is like a natural ability, or is it that the stuff that you got? Well, we do ball. You know that he's got a mag for it. But we do train that. We call it match. And we do drills every Tuesday. Take away drills. Part of our drill sequence. But he's got a good sense of eye hand coordination. How many balls come out? And sometimes this is best. To me, those are sad. So he's effective all the time. To answer them. So it's pretty cool. But yeah, that's something we train. And he's got a great, great, great feel for it. We do challenge time. He's not season-wise. He's going to play a game of basketball. You guys are coming for it. You guys are going to see, you know that? You have to do it. You have to say what Tyler comes up to. Yeah. To do it really well. Yeah. Who the guy would do it? We challenge the ball. It was just not playing game. We don't train just one guy to train called four or sixteen. It's the same concept. So I think everyone has some cool passports. We don't take tied to the sides. We just know that he's a part of our unit. And I think he's proved me to do that.

5:39:40Strong, he's powerful. He just comes into his two blocks. What makes him more effective? I'm sure he knows that. It's a tough decision to rest a passable in those, but you can get slide, you can get double lots. So you get lost in this, the rest of the pass, do you leave in one on one? He's got a chance to change something. Yeah, he's got a chance to change something. He and KJ have kind of helped each other, he's got a lot of student groups and help each other, and they help each other. Yeah, it's been from the White Spokes guys practice a lot. They plan a real high level right now. I think again, KJ and KJ both different players, they play KJ. 8 Thank you. Please follow it all. Liuhe-Hong and Liuhe-Abra

5:40:41Plant with Lady poles. Is there a difference now in the last year for the team being that full-fledged defense of them? Oh no doubt about it. You could only actually throw your balance from 2-6 and then you can play the run-back. He's really going to play on the 6-Tech, then play on top of the tie-back. He's got to be able to do that. That's the thing I think is the improvement most of all. And that's from the strength of him. He's really confident with the exact right now. He's a bond, he's not a bridge right now. That's a good amount of that. That's a secondary like this, do you play well in the future? Oh no doubt. You know, Russian and college work together. We've got a very secondary play man getting hold of all a little bit. Certainly, that's a lot of it. It gets the point I can't think of that. The guys in the back, you know, is that a great job too? Does that change any of your messaging or coaching points in camp? Or is that more of a week to 8 in a game corporation type of a game? No, it's every day. You know, every day process. We've got a Russian pass over there, cover that. Which I know, but you know, we're getting there, it's really tough.

5:41:41Can we, the fact that we've changed the trail, make it essential in the back of the net? We try not to look behind us. You know, maybe we should make sure our eyes are focused on what we can do at the front. We never turn around, it's all you call a ball. That's all nice. That's all nice. I'm looking for a first quote. I actually just sprinkle a little bit of a different way. What is it about the Hamilton brothers that they come on as they're the longer they stay in college? What did you put together that's common between the two? Nothing different. It's just a process, right? Everybody goes through a process. I think the long end tie is going to be different, let's say. They're going to be both great students. They understand the course of the day. I think the tie came back because they realized that I guess I'm finished with this. There's a marble that he's still here. He's just done a great job. What is the luxury of having two deep bits of tattoos and claim a lot like poly, entire or the TNT for whatever they're going about today? What is the luxury of having more deep things?

5:42:43You understand what I'm saying? You don't get that every day. That's right. It makes us better. You could stop the rope from the inside out and you've got to choose the skills. Indeed, that's the most guys to reach out to. We have hats, hands, and a physicality in the line. That makes it different. It makes our ends much job easier. I can't imagine that. You say? I'm not so in TNT yet. I still like the rushments. Did Jesse name a captain? How have you been here? He's been a phenomenal guy. He's been different. I can say a lot of ways. He's focused. He's really liking it when he wants to be a great guy. And every day he has some feelings for him to practice. To be a captain, he'll help you guys. That's very special. Yeah, that was pretty sweet. I really lost their chance to talk to him. Show him that a lot of them understand how important this is. It happens. People cry, the gap is still unbelievable. They're really great. I think, yeah, it's great. What a great, what a phenomenal.

5:43:43The only thing that's left is the last question. I've heard of the initials of how special this guy is. How would he use that? We call it the plan, Vast Ball Aggress. That's what he has. He has that cross over the moon Vast Ball. That's what he said. You can pretty simply just have his moon on his head. It's a great job. So as you need, these fasts, how many can you do? It's a big importance. I think you guys are proud of the working role it's putting you to develop that kind of question. How much to bring them to the guy with mutual passion? Bring them to the island then and then to the captain. That's a lot of stuff. Well, he's a kid who's way deeper in some scheme. So we can let him go and cover the nose guard tackle. So he might do a little bit of that. That's his casual pain. That's a good thing. Coach, thank you very much. Thank you. Appreciate it. I think we had our moments where we kind of got selfish of if anything about wanting to make a play that we kind of got out of our defensive line mentality and the rest of the mentality.

5:44:50This is, you know, rushing four guys kind of caves of pocket and keep that quarterback in that little shelf. But other than that, you know, I think you did a great job and I think it showed in the stats. We saw a lot of things improve on the course, but yeah, and we're good. Appreciate the time to last year get in meetings and flash. About the draft of the football school. Does it just matter if you have anything worth to take it? Have you worked for physical years? See what you can do in short-forage? I think, yeah, some of it was like, you know, it's kind of like my freshman year coming back. We didn't really know how much I could handle. I mean, how many plays I could handle out of certain amount of time. So it was just like kind of trial by air just seeing what I could do in the short amount of time that I had it. But I definitely think there was more trust to be had on the coach's side with me. So I think that definitely came into the spring into this fall camp, you know, doing all the plays and doing a lot of repetition with those plays and getting, you know, really home doing all my play with the things. Talk about feeling healthy now.

5:45:50Maybe you don't have to have me this kind of situation. Is that still ongoing with the training staff that's nearby? Yeah, I'm a trainer room as much as I can. I've been in there. I can leave a facility with like five different body parts. I start, but yeah, I think the biggest thing is just saying consistent. That's probably my biggest challenge going into this fall camp. I'd have moments like that where you said I'm flashing, but it's like where I think consistent and every single time. I'm doing my job every single time. I'm trying to continue to work. It's just the depth of defense. You're technically a backup. Taking very quickly back up. You got a jacks and get the start of Jack's lawyer and JT just the depth of defense. That's really good. Yeah, I personally think we're one of the best team or best groups in the country. So I think it's great to have so many guys because you know it's going to be a very long season. And we're going to leave a lot of rotation. So I guess even when Jack and JT come out of the game, I stand there so I have to be up to. So that's really what me, Kaden and I, KJF, are fighting to do every day.

5:46:52How bad are you? He's going great. I'd say he's very, I feel like he's found himself in a humble kind of space. You know what I'm saying? Where he's kind of took a step back and just like put his head down and worked. I don't think that's the same to be said for a lot of the freshmen here. That's really cool to see him motivating. See from the end of that. We think this deep is a front will be known for in October and November. Would you think that would be? People would be saying that. Thanks for watching also. I know JTF is just kind of hard to frame because I'm not there yet, you know. But I just hope that we're known for doing our job and playing at a violently high level each and every step. Doing as hard as we can each and every step. And if that's what we are then I think we can hang our hat on there for sure. Mitch, how much more do you think everything is going to stand by day? Oh gosh, man. Who you telling me now? It's definitely like those injuries like I said it's probably one of the more humbling experiences of my life. And it kept me grounded. You know, I really realized like this is not something that is going to be here forever.

5:47:52And I'm not going to be playing the sport forever. So I just really got to be blessed and thankful that I'm even in this position right now coming back from those injuries. And saw the opportunity to play at a high level which I am. So I think I've definitely found myself really trying to stay in the present as much as I can because it's not always guaranteed. But I'm going to be able to do what I can do. By the way, you're looking so sporadic. Yeah. It was definitely hard. It definitely had a lean on some of my loved ones, my family members, my parents. Just to like really understand that this is what I wanted to do. And of course it is now. But yeah, it took a second to really just like I had to understand what it really took to get my body right. How to recover right, how to, you know, rest right, do everything I can to that I can stay healthy for a long time. I think you want to get tightly caught in the middle. It's only like five or six years. You guys have a big picture of me, Chip on this roster. You got here? Yeah. Everyone did? Yeah. What is that that still means to you and then going forward like how do you instill this is how you want to be changed?

5:48:57You watch everybody who had already done it before. Yeah, I think it turns into motivation if anything. Knowing that a lot of the guys within before us got to that point and succeeded and stayed there. So that level of excellence has to be like solidified in each rep that we do. And I think that the leaders of this team have really tried to hone on that every rep and every practice. We're trying to like understand why we're doing it and what we're doing is for us. I think keeping that on the forefront of our minds and every day and every practice is the biggest part getting back. What's up with the last couple of steps? I mean, yeah, we understand what's happened these past couple of years and all the things that we haven't done. So I think this year is definitely like kind of a redemption in that right? Understanding that, you know, we've fallen short and we haven't met our expectations. And, you know, it takes a lot to get there. We understand that and it takes more than what we've done. So I think finally, you know, taking that next step and doing everything we can intentionally will be the biggest thing. That's what it's often about.

5:49:59What do you think? Thanks guys. Thank you. He brings us Saturday and you know, he's putting a lot of hard work, you know, super team first guy and excellent player from a lot of things. So I'm really excited for him to be able to handle Saturday. So you've got to finish last season the way you feel. How much confidence do you have in this year? Yeah, I think it gives me a lot of confidence. I think for a lot of guys that we start playing, you know, our best ball especially on the defensive side of the ball. That's second half of the season. And so we're just all excited like I said, you know, you know, just chomping up the bed to get the Saturday. You know, we can't wait to put the pads on and be in this in the shoe with, you know, 100 plus thousand fans and, you know, put on a good performance. You're going to get the year period is the effect of chasing perfection. Yeah, you know, we talked a lot about shutouts and I'm not going to say that, you know, that's an expectation. But, you know, we think that our defense is good enough to go out there, you know, win the game for us.

5:51:01You know, and there's none wrong with saying that because that's why we all came out. We came back to be the best defense of the country. And I think that, you know, the expectation has got to be super high for us. We have a whole bunch of high standard, which we have. And I'm just really excited to see, you know, it all come together in a game for him and against somebody else other than our offense. Yeah, and that pissed us off too. They're getting them three points up. But, you know, we're really excited for opportunity to, you know, hopefully get one of those this year. As you really feel. Yeah, yeah. Jack, Jack, Jake, how did you see Grown just in the last several months? What do you see about him from this Irish standpoint? You know, I was asking him that he's kind of a boss. I asked him, yeah, to have a Penn State game everywhere. Yeah, I say so. But we're some pride. I mean, we're some pride that differently, I guess going into this season. Yeah, I mean, he's just, you know, JT's just, you know, he's taking that next step. He's super focused in, you know, this whole offseason, we've been really downed in trying to pinpoint stuff that we can get better at, you know, and specifically attacking him and really trying to, you know, focus on and get better on those things.

5:52:03I think that he has. He looks great, you know, this whole fall camp leading up to this game. So far, this game prep week. So he's definitely taking, you know, huge strides. And, you know, I think a lot of people would give him unfair criticism too because they do all expect him to have a Penn State game every game, which is. Yeah, I just want the best season to game to ever played. So it's unfair to say that, but he's been consistently one of the best defensive end of the call of football if you turn on the tape. So I'm really excited to get out there with him this year and, you know, Rickson had a good fight. You move the expectations for both of you guys. You all came in. Yeah. You feel like this is the year it comes to fruition from the standpoint of dominance. I don't know. I don't know. I don't want to pick that word. What's your sense of that? Yeah, I mean, no, that's something that we talked about. That's something all four of us and really eight of us on the D-line talk about is, you know, being dominant. You know, there's no ceiling to how good we can be this year. And we know that it's all about us going out there and doing it. You know, we can talk about it all day, but until we go out there and do it, you know, it doesn't mean a damn thing. So, you know, we're all excited to get out there. And then we're hungry and, you know, I've seen this at a different level of determination, you know, to chase greatness.

5:53:06And I've seen this as I've been here. So, you know, like I said, we're just, you know, we just can't wait for Saturday. I know the question. You never know. Yeah. Get your foot in your feet. If you put a baby foot in your back, you get a little bit of rubber. Stay with it. Nothing. Nothing. You know, the challenge is that, you know, we're playing an opponent's coming in our house in the shoe this week. We only get eight shots left in the shoe. And we've got to make everyone of them count and accurate to good football team. You know, good, good head coach. I believe he was the offensive coordinator for Oregon when they beat us here in my freshman year. You know, so they're going to be well coach. You're going to run their offense well and, you know, play good defense. So, the us, you know, in Coach Day always says, never about our opponents always about us. You know, if we're executing on the high level and playing fast and physical, then, you know, things will take care of itself. So, we got good opponent and accurate and, you know, works out of playing the Saturday. You're on tier only on the side.

5:54:07I just really felt like, and there's a more good experience. It's more than this is my natural and effective play. It's, you know, the defense playing the guys playing the game more sound, I guess. Yeah. Sort of thing. This year, General just talked about opening up and opening up and running more groceries. It's not needed to help you are playing along the defensive line. Is there more than emphasis on attacking the line of extremist playing the breath? Yeah, I know. I think that, uh, I think that, uh, you know, huge emphasis this fall camp, and leading up to this season is to, you know, kind of let us play more downhill, more free with less thinking. So, I think that's been great, honestly, the last few weeks and, you know, in the camp as well. And so, you know, I think that we are going to, you guys are going to see a more downhill team. And, you know, more of us coming up the edge, and we can have it in the guys all I want to see. So, I think that, you know, we're really excited to go out there and, you know, and throw it out there in place. So, you know, we're really excited for that. Have you seen science either yet? Did you walk down on that plane? No, I haven't watched it yet. I got no comment on that.

5:55:09Where do you feel like you've grown the most personally from where you were in your year? Um, I think that this off season was big for me and, you know, give my body right. Um, I think that, you know, I don't really like to talk about myself, but I think that I'm a little more exposed to what I was maybe in years past. And, uh, I was really excited for the work that we put in. I think all of us have grown so many different areas with our hands and hips across the defensive line. So, um, you know, like I said, just super excited. I just want to get a little more leaner, uh, you know, really work on that. And I just work on my technique, you know, my stance might get off of stuff like that of that nature for the defensive line. So, I think that I have and I'm, you know, I'm excited to put on the field center. Jack, what's the big difference between the guys sitting in the chair right now, fresh face kid that came in four years ago? Not like on the field stuff that you learned, but off the field that maybe even translated on the field. Yeah, I think that when you come in here and, you know, you're an 18 year old kid just leaving high school that there's a ton of things you can learn, you know, just as becoming a man and, and on the field in the woody as well.

5:56:13And that's why I tell all these young kids now is that, you know, you have to make the main thing the main thing, make people the main thing. You know, and everything else will take care of itself. So I think that, you know, coming in as we were all highly recruited to, you know, didn't help with our expectations and how it really, how it really goes in the first game here. So I think that, you know, when you get your use to start and plan 80 staffs of games, you're five years old when you first get here and, you know, you don't really see the field much as a freshman kind of. Kind of takes you back a little bit, but, you know, the growth that we've all had, you know, we're all just laughing about that. Actually, it's a great question because me and Tyler, you can JT, we watch it, film bus from our freshman year, we're like, holy shit, we came a long way. You know what I mean? So, you know, it's been good. Being able to, you know, grow up with those guys and, you know, see the maturity level that we've all grown to from our freshman year on the football field. And it's funny that it comes full circle. So it's been awesome. So it's phenomenal. Thank you guys.

5:57:13How's it going? Honestly, just trust our scheme, trust our defense. I like our players a lot. So when we have that matchup, whoever has that match, we just have to get one. Hey, this is Kevin. This is Joe and Nick Jonas from Hey Jonas. This episode of Hey Jonas is brought to you by the all new drink lineup at McDonald's. I don't have to tell you that there are already so many great drink options at McDonald's. But the new drink lineup, I mean, it takes things to another level.

I love days like these at the pool, but my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis can sometimes take me out of the moment. I'm ready to make a splash with clear skin thanks to SkyRizzy, RizzenkizmabRizza. SkyRizzy is a prescription only injection for adults who are candidates for systemic or phototherapy. At four months, most people saw 90% clear skin when measured from head to toe. And many were even 100% plaque free.

Serious allergic reactions, increased infections or lower ability to fight that may occur. Before treatment, get checked for infections and tuberculosis.

What do you feel like you can help with that? You know being a nickel is that natural. Yeah, I mean I go out there and I cover so they don't really they put them out alive. He's not really in there. Pass blocking a lot. So he's going to be. He's going to be seen out there with the nickels of safety. So there's going to be a lot of times we're going to have to cover him and so it's our time to cover him.

6:00:16We should go to our job. Berizo, would you play a lot of snacks, especially like last weekend? You still think like a receiver at touch? Yeah, I mean, I get a feel for routes early on. But yeah, I think just in my training, like understanding the route combination and what they want to run on different down in distances is a tell me out. Or just fitting the run depending the run against the sea. What kind of stands about these running bags that are. Makes the part to bring down. Yeah, they're big backs. They're both over 220. So they're going to run downhill. They play with good paddlers. They're going to put their pads low. So as a do like a nickel like me, I got to just make sure I run through their outside lane. Get them down. What goes through your mind when they're to quarterback some of them? I mean, nine that actually split him out a little bit. So he actually might think I'm a little ball a little bit, but 15 we've got to get we have to guard them over whatever our time is. We got to go executed. I mean, that's that's a quarterback. So we should make sure we handle that. How the Oregon game, how hungry I to move yourself in another top five game?

6:01:16Definitely. I don't really think it took the Oregon to wake us up like that, but I was definitely was part of our part of our season. So we got just go bounce back over a zid defense as a team keep use that to ignite a fire. Sure. One of the leaders of the special teams unit. What do you feel like you guys are at right now? Three seven games and where do you need to be at? I mean, I think we got to continue to get better. We don't really have any block shed really. We don't really have any touchdown on special teams. So we got to make sure we got to be game Tuesday and that space. I feel like we got to continue to improve. Hey, else for Enzo. Hey, buddy. Thank you. And dot com, which we haven't talked to you since the Oregon game for starters. How is the hand and also did that impacts anything that you were able to do carry in the ball while you were dealing with that? Yeah, I want to give a big thanks to our athletic trainers here. They helped me a lot.

6:02:16And you know, nothing's tremendously like wrong. My hand or anything like that. I still was able to play today. So big thanks to them. Over to the left camera. Teague Robinson, the athletic. Quinshunt. When obviously the local lunch hasn't changed a piece of the lot right now with some injuries. Is that affect how maybe you see holds how how things go up front or in the run game when someone keeps their changing it out? I think especially when you have new guys in the rotation, they have to get used to the tempo and how things go up front, especially in the game tempo compared to, you know, walk through or different things like that. So having those guys mentally dialed in and getting those reps that they need. I think that's the biggest part. But it's not anything that they couldn't handle. Over to the left. Katie Kapusta Spectrum one. Can you talk about how that last drive by you guys really gave you confidence? Maybe going into next week and I rewatch the route that you ran for that touchdown. You really schooled your defender and he lost his footing. Talk a little bit about what that was like.

6:03:19You were wide open. Yeah. So just outside release route, you know, looking at the leverage of the linebacker. You overplayed throughout. So I cut it up and nobody was in that area of the field. So I just gave my, you know, my back shoulder to the quarterbacks. I threw the ball back. And folk. Yeah, I think it just helped our team. I want to give a big thanks to our defense. They played tremendous today. You know, those guys helped us so much and just did their part. I mean, over the top part. So a lot of great players on this. I really showed up today. Folks, we do have Ty Hamilton in the very back as well. We could start to wrap up with Cody Simon. Any more questions for Quinshaw and Judkins? If not, Quinshaw. Thank you very much. What you call it up, what you said. How much does it mean that this team believes in versus the dollar, that, etc. How the word is that kind of stack up and this organization has that belief in you? So much. So, so I feel like that's just gives me, you know, just humbles me to know that my work that I have to push forward is, that's to be better.

6:04:28And I know I can be better and play better. And I just thought that's where my mindset is. It's just like, how can I even exceed this? How can I show my appreciation after on that field? You know, the fact that they believe in me and my teammates just makes sure I don't want everyone, everyone to let them down. And I know that with, with moving forward and stuff that I definitely won't, I definitely won't want what. Just going to keep working and keep going. Just happy that they believe in me. How exciting is it you're locked up now for your attention, but you look at this young defense and a lot of these guys can be long for the ride as you kind of move forward with this solid. Yeah, we've got a lot of young talented guys on this defense and I think we're going to get better, you know, even just moving forward the way we've been able to accomplish things this year. I feel like we still haven't played our best defense, you know, as a unit as a whole. I mean, people have individual stuff, but I feel like just together we can grow and get even better.

6:05:35And I feel like that just comes with just more time. Because like you said, we have a lot of young guys and I'm just excited to be a part of it and definitely going to do all that I can't delete and help us get to wherever we need to go. So there's a lot of them that can be extended here and it's really going to believe them. I don't know, honestly, I always believed in myself and, you know, my family helped me with that so much. Just always believing in me, always telling me what I'm capable of and helping me along. And I mean, like shout out to my mom for everything that she's done for me and getting me to this point. Yeah, I mean, I don't reflect too much. I only like to move forward because I feel like this is just like a starting point for me. I know I'm going to grow for this, but I mean, all to that credit, I reflect with my mom and I'm sure she'll help me out with that.

6:06:42What could have been the moment, like what are the next steps that you wanted to get into yourself? Yeah, Pro Bowl for one, being an all pro outside linebacker, being dominant and really holding myself up to the standard that was set here. I feel like with Vaan and the Marcus Ware and even Chubb and you know, just want to keep going and keep working. Yeah, I just have this new motivation, you know, to keep going now. So just really excited. We get work so long, they get it for a cover of the ECU to get clothed by the rain, how important it is to get back to the sun to get punched in the face. Yeah. Yeah, it's just getting back to work knowing that the things that we've done have been good enough to this point is just cleaning up the little small things. You know, this was going to happen as league, you know, you're going to get punched in your mouth every now and then, but it's how you respond to it.

6:07:48And I feel like our team has definitely a good mindset to show that our response will be strong and solid and yeah, I got full confidence moving forward. And we're going to be a side of the two of the most unique quarterbacks in the last two weeks in the world and not in the civil home. How do they differ probably similar and more than challenges? Well, both two top quarterbacks in our league, obviously, I mean, both MVP, Caliber, guys, we all know how decorated Patrick Mahomes is and easy as just a phenomenal competitor, you know, probably the best competitor in this league. And, you know, that means every time we face against them or go get some more Sunday, you have to have your best because you know, you're going to get that from him. And I know it would be ready to answer that. Why? Because I'm going to ask you, you have to contract and then also to trade with Aaron. How do you say you're not even what how long to have pushed each other down the line?

6:08:52Yeah. Barren's been my guy for my teammate for eight years, you know, far past this, you know, and even our time in the league and I was really hurt and really sad to see him go. But I know it's a good opportunity for him. And I know he'll take full advantage of it. We all know how talented Baron is. Fantastic football player, fantastic dude, man. That's my brother and, you know, I wish him all the best. I talked to him before he went and I know he's going to go there and ball. So I'm just excited to see what he does. And dot com. We have to talk to you since the organ game for starters. How is the hand and also did that impacts anything that you were able to do carry in the ball while you were dealing with us? Yeah, I want to give a big thanks to our athletic trainers here. They helped me a lot and you know, nothing's tremendously like wrong. My hand or anything like that. I still was able to play today. So big thanks to them.

6:09:55Over to the left camera T Robinson the athletic. I think when you have new guys in the rotation, they have to get used to the tempo and how things go up front, especially in the game tempo compared to, you know, walk through different things like that. And those guys mentally dialed in and getting those reps that they need. I think that's the biggest part, but it's not anything that they couldn't handle. Over to the left Katie Kapusta Spectrum one. Can you talk about how that last drive by you guys really gave you confidence maybe going into next week and I rewatch the route that you ran for that touchdown. You really schooled your defender and he lost his footing. Talk a little bit about what that would like you were wide open. So just outside release route, you know, looking at the leverage of the linebacker, you overplayed throughout. So I cut it up and nobody was in that area of the field. So I just gave my, you know, my back shoulder to the quarterbacks.

6:11:04So he threw the ball back. And yeah, I think it just helped our team. I want to give a big thanks to our defense. Many played tremendous today. You know, those guys helped us so much and just did their part. I mean, over the top part. So a lot of great players on that side of the ball and they really showed up today. Folks, we do have Ty Hamilton in the very back as well. We could start to wrap up with Cody Simon. Any more questions for Quinshaw and Judkins? If not, Quinshaw. Thank you very much. And we play every day. We break it down on play. So that's our mindset and we're very we believe in it. John mentioned that to the outside linebacker play a big role in this defense. What is it about this defense? What's it about this? I think maybe just the way because VJ uses us in the defense. I think that's a question for the defense coordinator. I just do my job. Speaking of how nice is it to have the same defense of staff, you know, mostly with VJ back? It's nice. You know, the second year in the season is always a better in the first. So I think we've been embracing it. And just like I said, I tried to make the corrections from last year and just be better.

6:12:06So I was talking about there's some kind of like mental awareness that goes to that income passes and building what you're not going to get to the quarterback. How do you just talk about that as a defensive line as a outside rushing group in terms of at least or how to work on that? Yeah, we do some of the drills in practice. We haven't kind of been starting yet with those some danger drilling practice. Obviously, you know, if it's a quick game, you're not going to get there. So, you know, just get your hands up. I think it's just more a feel thing. Is that in particular, seems really good at that? Yeah, it's including the key does well in the area. No, yeah, is that because definitely good at that. And I think that's something the interior is very good as a whole just in your hands. What's your impression of Jonah Ellis now with a few months working with him? You know, Jonah got a lot of natural skill. I think his upside is very high. But I mean, like anywhere, you know, there's that learning curve from playing coming from college and NFL. So I think he's just been continuing to develop and continue to get better. I mean, I'm happy what I've seen, but I mean, obviously I know he has high expectations for himself and not only him, but I hold units. So I'm just like I said, excited to see him keep growing.

6:13:08What's the most challenging aspect of that learning curve for you and to come into the air? Or really, I guess you're too. I think the biggest thing was switching from inside to outside. I mean, inside you five yards off the ball kind of versus edge right there with somebody in your face. So just kind of learning how to just that change up. And I think just learning how to get off the ball, you know, inside you have time to read outside. You don't have that much time to read. You have to be kind of very decisive. So just getting reps of that, you know, that was the biggest thing to have me. I think that it would be something to help film the students getting reps. Some more reps to get the better.
