- 0:18Speaker 1: the first time in twenty presented by the Florida Department
- 0:21Speaker 1: of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles. J P. Shadrick from
- 0:24Speaker 1: the home studio, Jeff Logoman from his home studio, and
- 0:29Speaker 1: head coach Doug Moron joins us, I'm guessing you're still
- 0:33Speaker 1: at t I A A bank Field, Doug. How are you, Bud? Oh,
- 0:37Speaker 1: he's muted. We've got to un mute the head coach
- 0:40Speaker 1: before we can talk to the head coach. Technology is
- 0:44Speaker 1: getting us here. We'll get back with Doug Moron when
- 0:47Speaker 1: they mute the microphone for him. Don at t I
- 0:50Speaker 1: A A bank Field at his first media press conference today.
- 0:54Speaker 1: Curious to hear what Doug has to say about that
- 0:58Speaker 1: at all the protocols and everything that happened uh so
- 1:01Speaker 1: far leading up to this ramp up period in the preseason,
- 1:06Speaker 1: and you know it's the strange time logs. Obviously, we'll
- 1:10Speaker 1: we'll get Doug Barrowne. Hey, Doug, are you there? I
- 1:11Speaker 1: think I think I see the microphone icon now, Doug, Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 1:21Speaker 1: I mean I a little misinformation, you know, but you
- 1:24Speaker 1: gotta have some patience going on. I mean, you know,
- 1:26Speaker 1: they told me that from the studio they would unmike me,
- 1:29Speaker 1: but I just kind of maybe I would, you know,
- 1:31Speaker 1: I did the override and hit the button myself. But hopefully, Hey,
- 1:35Speaker 1: it's good being back with you guys, hopefully both you,
- 1:37Speaker 1: you know, both of you. I've seen j P around
- 1:39Speaker 1: jogging and you know, jogging around the neame, but Jeff,
- 1:42Speaker 1: I haven't seen you. I hope of your family is
- 1:44Speaker 1: doing well and uh, you know, looking forward to get
- 1:47Speaker 1: back to uh, you know, all the challenges that are
- 1:50Speaker 1: going on. So I would think we probably have a
- 1:52Speaker 1: lot of bit a lot to talk about. Yeah, may
- 1:54Speaker 1: I mean a lot would be kind of an understatement. First,
- 1:58Speaker 1: let's start off. I like the beard. It's kind of
- 1:59Speaker 1: a good look for you there, Doug. So I appreciate that,
- 2:03Speaker 1: you know, I tell I gotta I guess. I had
- 2:06Speaker 1: that press conference today and one of my cousin's texted
- 2:10Speaker 1: me and they're like, oh, I like that. I'm like,
- 2:12Speaker 1: that's what you do when you try to hide hide
- 2:14Speaker 1: a double chin, you know. So it's it's been such
- 2:18Speaker 1: a such a challenging year, and it goes all the
- 2:22Speaker 1: way back to March and and I don't want to
- 2:25Speaker 1: go all the way back to that point because there
- 2:26Speaker 1: was so much that was unknown at that point. But
- 2:29Speaker 1: here we are, end of July, and typically we're talking
- 2:32Speaker 1: about the Jimmy's, the Joe's, and the xs and ohs,
- 2:35Speaker 1: and you're still talking about that, but then you have
- 2:37Speaker 1: a whole another category of managing a football team with
- 2:42Speaker 1: a global pandemic. I mean, where's the manual for that? Well,
- 2:47Speaker 1: you know, I don't think there is a manual for that.
- 2:49Speaker 1: I think that, Um, I think one of the first
- 2:52Speaker 1: things it's kind of it's kind of Jeff I went
- 2:55Speaker 1: through the same thing. So I tried to do is
- 2:58Speaker 1: change myself, my my mentor reality of you know, what
- 3:02Speaker 1: we look at as you know, a training camp, and
- 3:05Speaker 1: but we look at as preseason games and you know,
- 3:09Speaker 1: and and some of the things that go into that.
- 3:11Speaker 1: As a coach, I mean, and you've seen it, you know,
- 3:14Speaker 1: from from that end where coaches want to you know,
- 3:16Speaker 1: as soon as the players get in, you want to
- 3:18Speaker 1: set the tempo, you want to go. You want to
- 3:21Speaker 1: you know, you know, set that you know, physical mode
- 3:24Speaker 1: and get on the field and being pads and you know,
- 3:27Speaker 1: here we go. Um, I think you know, h with
- 3:32Speaker 1: the weeks leading up, you know, to what was going on,
- 3:35Speaker 1: and obviously there was a lot of anxiety of whether
- 3:38Speaker 1: you know, um, you know we were able going to
- 3:40Speaker 1: get something done with obviously the protocols being in place. Um,
- 3:44Speaker 1: you know, I've talked to the coaches, I've talked to
- 3:46Speaker 1: the rookies. I'm gonna talk to the veterans about Hey, listen,
- 3:49Speaker 1: you know it's just truly a ramp up period. We
- 3:52Speaker 1: have some time, uh you know about four weeks, four
- 3:56Speaker 1: and a half weeks to get the team ready to play. Um,
- 3:59Speaker 1: you get about fourteen days of padded practices and we'll
- 4:02Speaker 1: get to that. But our mentality as coaches, you know,
- 4:05Speaker 1: we have to change, you know, we have to have
- 4:08Speaker 1: you know, this is this is called patients. You know,
- 4:10Speaker 1: this is called education with acclimating the players. In my opinion, UM,
- 4:16Speaker 1: you know, to the safety protocols that are in place
- 4:19Speaker 1: and talking about you know, not only just self discipline,
- 4:25Speaker 1: but also more importantly the responsibility that we all have,
- 4:28Speaker 1: you know, to make sure that we don't bring this
- 4:31Speaker 1: virus into the building and spread this virus. And you know,
- 4:35Speaker 1: it's it's a little bit you know, it's it's it's
- 4:37Speaker 1: a little bit more than you know, hey, just coming
- 4:40Speaker 1: into this building getting tested every day. It's a lot
- 4:42Speaker 1: of it is, hey, what you do outside, and you know,
- 4:45Speaker 1: it's tough. I've been going through it now for a
- 4:47Speaker 1: couple of days, uh not really really almost two weeks now,
- 4:51Speaker 1: where you know, I haven't been in touch, you know,
- 4:53Speaker 1: I haven't you know, my children play au sports, My
- 4:56Speaker 1: children are around, you know, my wife's driving them around,
- 4:58Speaker 1: you know, so you know, I basically you know, been quarantined,
- 5:02Speaker 1: you know, from them because obviously I'm I'm committed to
- 5:07Speaker 1: not getting it. And you know, those are some of
- 5:09Speaker 1: the things that are that are tough, you know, um,
- 5:13Speaker 1: you know, and I think we all have all these
- 5:14Speaker 1: different challenges and that's why I like, you know, we
- 5:17Speaker 1: see players opting out or things of that nature, and
- 5:20Speaker 1: and you know, I respect that decision. I think that
- 5:23Speaker 1: you know, at the same time, if if we're gonna
- 5:25Speaker 1: come in here and say that there's no risks. Of course,
- 5:28Speaker 1: there's risk. There's risk every time we go to the supermarket.
- 5:31Speaker 1: There's risk every time we you know, we're out there.
- 5:33Speaker 1: But you know, I think the awareness, I think the
- 5:36Speaker 1: rules that have been put in place or the protocols
- 5:38Speaker 1: which um you know obviously at any time can change
- 5:42Speaker 1: for the better. Which is that what that's what we want?
- 5:45Speaker 1: Like I said, this thing is, this thing is the
- 5:46Speaker 1: best thing right here. You know this little uh you know,
- 5:50Speaker 1: my contact thing. You see it flashing blue? You know
- 5:52Speaker 1: what I mean? And what is that? We're getting into
- 5:56Speaker 1: my space anyway? So now this this is like, now
- 5:59Speaker 1: I gotta eason to keep people away from me. If
- 6:04Speaker 1: it starts flashing red, it means, hey, get you asked
- 6:06Speaker 1: the way? You too close. It's a contract tracer though logs,
- 6:10Speaker 1: so everybody has one in the building and it tracks
- 6:13Speaker 1: where you are in vicinity to somebody else. And if it,
- 6:16Speaker 1: if it goes red, you better step away from the
- 6:18Speaker 1: head coach. Well step or the head coach step away
- 6:21Speaker 1: from wherever, you know, for all of us. Really it's
- 6:23Speaker 1: it's it's really good. And I think you know part
- 6:27Speaker 1: of the this plan, you know that or this mindset
- 6:31Speaker 1: that I had was, you know, bring the coaches in,
- 6:33Speaker 1: get them used to the protocols of wearing masks. Having again,
- 6:38Speaker 1: we differentiated in another word, virtual meetings or meetings we
- 6:41Speaker 1: have with the players at home, interactive meetings we have
- 6:44Speaker 1: in the building, but we're all spread out, so you're
- 6:46Speaker 1: not having these full you know, offensive meetings, offense defense
- 6:51Speaker 1: special teams. They've broken up the individual meetings we have
- 6:54Speaker 1: in space well enough apart. So you know that's all
- 6:57Speaker 1: been different, but you know, it's it's it's different. You know,
- 7:02Speaker 1: the normal is the abnormal right now, you know what
- 7:06Speaker 1: I'm saying. So so, and then when the players came in,
- 7:10Speaker 1: you know, obviously with all these testing protocols are in place,
- 7:13Speaker 1: you know that doesn't mean that everything's okay. You know,
- 7:15Speaker 1: we still have to you know, um, you know, go
- 7:18Speaker 1: with the protocols and keep uh, you know, the environment
- 7:22Speaker 1: as safe as possible. So I wanted to get them
- 7:25Speaker 1: used to the protocols. First. I thought, if if, if
- 7:27Speaker 1: the players report, and that's why I think, um, the
- 7:31Speaker 1: PA in the league made a good decision of kind
- 7:33Speaker 1: of ramping this thing up for two reasons. One, the
- 7:37Speaker 1: most important thing is when everyone comes in is to
- 7:39Speaker 1: get acclimated to the protocols. So I think if you
- 7:42Speaker 1: were gonna get aclimated to the protocols, be thrown into
- 7:44Speaker 1: the fire and all that stuff, I just think you
- 7:46Speaker 1: get overwhelmed, you know, because everything is so different. And
- 7:50Speaker 1: then the other thing, I think it's different than lockouts
- 7:53Speaker 1: or things that we've seen on you know, years before that.
- 7:56Speaker 1: You know, we tried to help the league, did you know,
- 7:59Speaker 1: trying to send players workout equipment. But realistically, you know,
- 8:03Speaker 1: if you're quarantine, you know, it's very difficult to go
- 8:06Speaker 1: out there to a gym. And so I thought our
- 8:10Speaker 1: our rookies and first year players came in, I thought
- 8:13Speaker 1: they were in really good shape, you know, and not
- 8:15Speaker 1: you lead a case most of the time. So I'm
- 8:17Speaker 1: excited to see our veterans come in. Knowing that, hey, listen,
- 8:22Speaker 1: patients is going to be probably the key, you know
- 8:25Speaker 1: what I'm saying early on, and and that's why we
- 8:28Speaker 1: truly have to think of this as a wrap up,
- 8:30Speaker 1: a ramp up period. So many people, Doug talk about
- 8:34Speaker 1: this NFL season, and they're talking about players, what the
- 8:37Speaker 1: players must do, what the organization must do as far
- 8:40Speaker 1: as keeping the players free from COVID nineteen and the
- 8:45Speaker 1: sacrifices that they need to make and to recognize to
- 8:48Speaker 1: make sure that they give themselves the best chance of
- 8:50Speaker 1: keeping themselves and their teammates free of this virus. But
- 8:55Speaker 1: I think what hasn't been recognized is that there's a
- 8:58Speaker 1: lot of staff are not coaches, that are not players,
- 9:03Speaker 1: that are involved in this equation as well that have
- 9:06Speaker 1: to make those same type of sacrifices for this to happen.
- 9:10Speaker 1: And uh and talk about that a little bit, because
- 9:13Speaker 1: I mean there's a lot of people that are kind
- 9:15Speaker 1: of behind the scenes that make a difference. Sure, I
- 9:18Speaker 1: would say that you know, um, you know, we have
- 9:22Speaker 1: we have we have a couple of different tiers, you know,
- 9:25Speaker 1: and you know, prior prior to getting down to the
- 9:28Speaker 1: number of tiers when we first looked at you know,
- 9:31Speaker 1: how many people could potentially you know, come in contact
- 9:34Speaker 1: with players, you know, even though and this is that
- 9:37Speaker 1: a roster of nineties, okay, And and really there's about
- 9:41Speaker 1: a hundred people in the building and that's pretty pretty
- 9:45Speaker 1: a pretty good number as far as accuracy, and that's
- 9:48Speaker 1: not including maybe the people that are walking around, you know,
- 9:51Speaker 1: cleaning some stuff up. It's not the security guards walking around,
- 9:55Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So but that number is
- 9:56Speaker 1: probably a little bit higher. So you know, and not
- 9:59Speaker 1: only is it change for us as coaches and the players,
- 10:03Speaker 1: but it's also a change of you know, for the
- 10:05Speaker 1: people you know around us, and you know, the sense
- 10:07Speaker 1: of responsibility, especially Tier one. You know, those are the
- 10:10Speaker 1: ones that are that are potentially in the same area,
- 10:13Speaker 1: even though there's physical distancing. So you know, everyone and
- 10:17Speaker 1: I know that I've spoke spoke to everyone about this
- 10:19Speaker 1: is that you know, there's it's almost more um more more,
- 10:26Speaker 1: there's more responsibility. You know, you cannot be selfish, you
- 10:30Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And this type of environment right now,
- 10:33Speaker 1: you have to understand that. You know, hey, you gotta
- 10:36Speaker 1: take a step back. You have to wear your mask,
- 10:38Speaker 1: you have to do these things. You know you can't.
- 10:41Speaker 1: You can't do things that you know maybe before with
- 10:44Speaker 1: the norm you know, gather in the locker room. I
- 10:46Speaker 1: can I said this, I said, you know, and what
- 10:49Speaker 1: I mean that you're learning about things. So after the
- 10:52Speaker 1: first time we had the rookies on the field for
- 10:53Speaker 1: a walk through. Normally you're a member of a team sport,
- 10:56Speaker 1: you bring everyone together and they let's get a breakdown.
- 10:59Speaker 1: You know, I may say a couple of words to him,
- 11:01Speaker 1: and I was like, you know what if I can
- 11:03Speaker 1: keep them a little bit more distance and handle that
- 11:05Speaker 1: somewhere else. So right now we're working and we're not hornblows.
- 11:08Speaker 1: We're off. But and again that may be extreme. People
- 11:11Speaker 1: may say that's out of control, but I think anywhere
- 11:13Speaker 1: where we can help, you know, keep the physical distance,
- 11:17Speaker 1: you know, and and help with you know, the you know,
- 11:21Speaker 1: keeping the environment sanitary and which we're you know, which
- 11:24Speaker 1: is really doing a great job. And it's gonna take
- 11:26Speaker 1: a lot of people. It's gonna take all all all
- 11:28Speaker 1: of us coaches and players to do the right thing
- 11:30Speaker 1: and police each other. You know, it's gonna take the
- 11:32Speaker 1: people that support us to make sure that they're doing
- 11:34Speaker 1: the right thing, because you know, all it takes is
- 11:37Speaker 1: one person, you know, that may go out and the
- 11:40Speaker 1: virus doesn't incubate in their system and want you know,
- 11:43Speaker 1: they wind up testing negative and coming into the building
- 11:45Speaker 1: and then now all of a sudden, it goes back
- 11:47Speaker 1: to hey, if I test positive, it's gonna go back
- 11:49Speaker 1: to these and who have been in contact with and
- 11:52Speaker 1: automatically get quarantined. So there's there's there's a lot going
- 11:55Speaker 1: on and I and I would imagine that you also
- 11:58Speaker 1: got to be ready for the audibles, you know, saying
- 12:00Speaker 1: as we learn more about this, um, you know, protocols
- 12:04Speaker 1: coming in in place that we've got to be ready,
- 12:06Speaker 1: um to initiate right away for the for the safety
- 12:09Speaker 1: of everyone that's involved. All right, let's come back in
- 12:12Speaker 1: a moment UM plenty more ahead with the head coach,

- 14:41Speaker 1: presented by the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor
- 14:43Speaker 1: Vehicles JP Shadrick, Jeff Flagman, and head coach Doug Moron.
- 14:49Speaker 1: You know a coach you in the first segment mentioned
- 14:52Speaker 1: the opt outs around the league. Have you had any
- 14:55Speaker 1: idea of what could happen on this roster? Any any
- 15:00Speaker 1: what he talked to you about something like that? Anything
- 15:01Speaker 1: official as of yet? Or is it has everybody showed up?
- 15:05Speaker 1: What's the situation with your roster right now well as
- 15:08Speaker 1: of when I did the press conference today, UM, I
- 15:11Speaker 1: had I did not have any conversations. But you know,
- 15:14Speaker 1: again these conversations the private until you know, the official
- 15:18Speaker 1: stuff goes. But you know, afterwards, obviously there are our
- 15:20Speaker 1: conversations and I expect it to be more conversation. That
- 15:23Speaker 1: would be be ignorant of me not to think that,
- 15:26Speaker 1: you know, these conversations wouldn't come up. You know, I
- 15:29Speaker 1: have the same conversations with the coaches. You know, Um,
- 15:32Speaker 1: you know, we're all at risk here and you know
- 15:34Speaker 1: everyone has that ability and I respect you know, their decision, um,
- 15:39Speaker 1: you know, because it's it's a decision that you have
- 15:42Speaker 1: to make as an individual. Uh and because there's risk involved.
- 15:46Speaker 1: So um, you know right now for the coaches, um,
- 15:50Speaker 1: you know there maybe you know they're they're they're they're good.
- 15:53Speaker 1: They haven't you know, um, you know said anything to me.
- 15:55Speaker 1: But I just want to make sure as the head
- 15:57Speaker 1: coach that you know, people understand that, hey, this is
- 16:00Speaker 1: an option for you. You know that you there's an
- 16:02Speaker 1: understanding to it, you know, think about it, um, and
- 16:06Speaker 1: then whatever happens, you know, I totally respect that decision
- 16:10Speaker 1: with with managing a football team in this situation, there's
- 16:14Speaker 1: been a lot of a lot of possibilities thrown out
- 16:18Speaker 1: there about how do you manage your roster? Do you
- 16:23Speaker 1: do you keep maybe a quarterback quarantine somewhere else? Do
- 16:27Speaker 1: you keep another coach or another coach preparing in case
- 16:31Speaker 1: duggling for some reason? You get, I mean, do you
- 16:33Speaker 1: have all these backup plans? And have you run these
- 16:36Speaker 1: scenarios through your mind? I mean a normal year even
- 16:40Speaker 1: get a second thought to it. Yeah, we we have,
- 16:44Speaker 1: you know, as just as everything was starting to come out,
- 16:48Speaker 1: um and again, I was like, you know, most of
- 16:51Speaker 1: most of you know, like both of you and the
- 16:53Speaker 1: most of the fans that are listening, I was, and
- 16:56Speaker 1: I was trying to track things, you know, through the
- 16:58Speaker 1: media to kind of get a kind of get a
- 17:01Speaker 1: feel maybe of what what the direction was, you know
- 17:03Speaker 1: that that you know, uh, you know, we were going.
- 17:06Speaker 1: So you know, obviously with the understanding of the coaches,
- 17:10Speaker 1: so you know, obviously we put a lot of thought into,
- 17:12Speaker 1: you know, a plan that if someone gets it, who's
- 17:15Speaker 1: taken over what's going on? So basically you know, we're
- 17:17Speaker 1: structured that way. We also have some other some other things,
- 17:21Speaker 1: maybe a little bit outside the box in case the
- 17:23Speaker 1: coach gets uh covid. Obviously you can't be in a facility,
- 17:27Speaker 1: but um, you know, we have some things set up
- 17:30Speaker 1: that we feel that you know, potentially, you know, could
- 17:32Speaker 1: help us. But like you said, there's a lot of
- 17:34Speaker 1: conversations to that. We did have conversations about the quarterback,
- 17:38Speaker 1: whether you know myself, Jay and ben Um and Dave Calwell,
- 17:42Speaker 1: whether they listen. It's something that you know, we're open
- 17:45Speaker 1: to discussing, and you know and we are, and you know,
- 17:49Speaker 1: so I kind of I said, listen, let's let's let's
- 17:51Speaker 1: figure us out when would that day be, you know,
- 17:53Speaker 1: when you get close to when when you need that
- 17:56Speaker 1: quarterback or you know that player to be quarantined and
- 17:59Speaker 1: you know, so will revisit that, you know somewhere down
- 18:02Speaker 1: the road. And camp Um and I think a lot
- 18:05Speaker 1: of it is is what's really going on, you know,
- 18:07Speaker 1: what's going on with the team, what's going on you
- 18:09Speaker 1: know outside? Where are we at that point? Um? I
- 18:12Speaker 1: think you know, if you're someone that's just so set
- 18:15Speaker 1: on on the structure and you're so set on you know,
- 18:19Speaker 1: just in you in your ways of doing things, I
- 18:22Speaker 1: really think you can struggle, you know, during these times,
- 18:24Speaker 1: it would be very difficult. So I think, you know,
- 18:28Speaker 1: like I said before, patients flexibility, Um, you know, you've
- 18:31Speaker 1: got to be able to if something happens and you
- 18:34Speaker 1: lose players at a certain position, how you're gonna practice.
- 18:37Speaker 1: All these things have been you know, thought out and
- 18:40Speaker 1: you know put on paper. Now you know if a
- 18:42Speaker 1: lot of times that happens. You know, like I've learned
- 18:45Speaker 1: from experience that you know, hey, you're prepared, but you know,
- 18:48Speaker 1: usually there's gonna be there's gonna be a curve ball
- 18:50Speaker 1: in there that you've got to be able to, you know,
- 18:51Speaker 1: make sure you're adjust and Um, that's something that I
- 18:54Speaker 1: think we were all challenged with right now. Whether you're
- 18:57Speaker 1: a coach or whether you're at home like you too,
- 19:00Speaker 1: our father, a husband, or an employee or a boss.
- 19:03Speaker 1: I mean, you know, we all have all this going on. Yeah,
- 19:06Speaker 1: there's so many different things to to factor in with
- 19:10Speaker 1: all this. Dug and and you mentioned how you were
- 19:13Speaker 1: following a lot of this through the media because there
- 19:16Speaker 1: was very little communication from what I understand, between the
- 19:19Speaker 1: teams in the league, and I think the league was
- 19:21Speaker 1: trying to use all there a lot of time to
- 19:23Speaker 1: try to figure out what was the best way of
- 19:25Speaker 1: doing this thing going forward for every team. So when
- 19:29Speaker 1: the information did come out and now you have all
- 19:31Speaker 1: of the information of how things are going to be,
- 19:34Speaker 1: are you comfortable with all of the scenarios and the
- 19:38Speaker 1: rules that the League is set forth and would you
- 19:41Speaker 1: like to see maybe some tweaks or changes or additions
- 19:44Speaker 1: or subtractions in certain areas with the way the League
- 19:48Speaker 1: has set things going forward. Well, I think you know,
- 19:52Speaker 1: the PA and the PAS doctors which are independent you
- 19:56Speaker 1: know in the league, and the League doctors, which is
- 19:58Speaker 1: you know, So you have these two separate and entities
- 20:00Speaker 1: that get together and I think they're they're looking out for,
- 20:05Speaker 1: you know, what's best for for everybody involved, and I
- 20:08Speaker 1: think you know the one thing when they come together,
- 20:10Speaker 1: and you know, there are times that you you want
- 20:12Speaker 1: more information because you want to be able to set
- 20:15Speaker 1: a schedule, and there's a little bit of frustration, But
- 20:17Speaker 1: I totally understand from you know, both the League and
- 20:20Speaker 1: the p A. You know, it's more important to get
- 20:22Speaker 1: it right than to go ahead and rush something that
- 20:24Speaker 1: that comes along. I think that the good thing about
- 20:28Speaker 1: both sides now is obviously the priority is is safety. Um,
- 20:33Speaker 1: you know, that's the number one thing. Um, you know,
- 20:35Speaker 1: with the with the virus, and I think that you
- 20:38Speaker 1: know what we're doing, um, you know, if there's a
- 20:42Speaker 1: better way to do it, you know, as we start
- 20:44Speaker 1: to do things, you know, there's constant communication, and that's
- 20:47Speaker 1: the one thing. Like you know, normally in the NFL
- 20:49Speaker 1: you have thirty two teams and they're all separated and
- 20:52Speaker 1: everyone's trying to get a competitive advantage. But I don't
- 20:56Speaker 1: think that, you know, teams are looking for a competitive
- 20:59Speaker 1: advantage when it comes down to players safety. So you know,
- 21:02Speaker 1: I really believe that we're doing a good job. If
- 21:04Speaker 1: something comes up down the road, you know, something we
- 21:07Speaker 1: we we run into something that we think we can
- 21:09Speaker 1: do a better job of. You know, I would know
- 21:11Speaker 1: that myself, Scott Dave, whoever, you know, uh, you know,
- 21:14Speaker 1: would would go ahead and report that to the league
- 21:16Speaker 1: and you know, maybe it can help somebody else. And
- 21:18Speaker 1: I think that's what's important. I mean, we're talking about
- 21:21Speaker 1: you know, sickness and lives and I mean we're talking about,
- 21:24Speaker 1: you know, an extreme thing that's never been part of
- 21:26Speaker 1: the sports. So you know, whatever we can do to
- 21:28Speaker 1: make sure you know the health of of not just
- 21:31Speaker 1: the players, but everybody in our building. I think it's
- 21:33Speaker 1: extremely important. Let's come back in a moment. We'll delve
- 21:37Speaker 1: into the challenge ahead for you, Doug, to build a
- 21:41Speaker 1: roster no preseason games and all the changes in training
- 21:45Speaker 1: camp ahead. It's the Doug Brown Show, presented by the

- 24:11Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Hannonia Autos dot com studio. The
- 24:15Speaker 1: Doug Moron Show continues right now. Welcome back to Doug
- 24:20Speaker 1: Moron Shoe presented by the Florida Department of Highway Safety
- 24:23Speaker 1: at Motor Vehicles, JP Shadrick, Jeff Lagavan, head coach, Doug Moron. Doug,
- 24:27Speaker 1: it's a Obviously we've talked about the challenge that has
- 24:31Speaker 1: already been presented to every team in the league, certainly
- 24:35Speaker 1: the Jaguars, but now you've got to figure out how
- 24:38Speaker 1: to get ninety guys down to fifty three on opening
- 24:41Speaker 1: day and there are no preseason games to watch film. Um,
- 24:47Speaker 1: you're undrafted players, so you understand the challenge of making
- 24:51Speaker 1: a roster to begin with, right, what what round was this?
- 24:57Speaker 1: It was like, okay, you were drafted to the late
- 25:00Speaker 1: But that's part of the point too, So late draft picks.
- 25:03Speaker 1: Why can't you stay with a drafted player? Why do
- 25:05Speaker 1: you gotta put me down like that? I wasn't correct,
- 25:10Speaker 1: and I apologize it's the first show back. That's my bad.
- 25:14Speaker 1: Either way, there's you're a late round draft pick, you're
- 25:17Speaker 1: an undrafted player, and it's a challenge to make a
- 25:21Speaker 1: football team to begin with with four or six preseason games,
- 25:24Speaker 1: Like it wasn't the old days. Um, how much to
- 25:27Speaker 1: a challenge is that now not? I actually probably feel
- 25:31Speaker 1: a little bit better, um, you know, maybe than than
- 25:34Speaker 1: some others, because you know, when it was it's like
- 25:37Speaker 1: the same thing I said before when I was talking
- 25:39Speaker 1: about maybe no preseason games and and um, and that
- 25:42Speaker 1: was coming out or maybe you know too, or whatever
- 25:45Speaker 1: it may be. You know, I was like, okay, you know,
- 25:49Speaker 1: for me, I kind of went, I kind of got
- 25:51Speaker 1: out my college stuff, looked at what we did in college, um,
- 25:54Speaker 1: just briefly, and then just you know, really just filling
- 25:58Speaker 1: it in. I think that, you know, the thing that
- 26:01Speaker 1: that I probably have the most hard feelings for is
- 26:07Speaker 1: you know, these guys like you said that are that
- 26:09Speaker 1: are coming in. I mean, you know, you look around
- 26:10Speaker 1: the league and the stories of you know, undrafted free
- 26:14Speaker 1: agents that have that have been able to make a living. Um,
- 26:17Speaker 1: you know, put a ton of time in. Um. You know,
- 26:20Speaker 1: I've been a big part of this game, you know,
- 26:22Speaker 1: in in in the whole entire history. And like I
- 26:24Speaker 1: told the rookie class that you look back on the
- 26:27Speaker 1: history of the NFL, this is probably the toughest period ever,
- 26:32Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying for those guys to come
- 26:34Speaker 1: in and and make a football team. And the one thing,
- 26:39Speaker 1: you know, we put a lot of time into these players.
- 26:41Speaker 1: These players have put a lot of time into, you know,
- 26:43Speaker 1: trying to showcase. So you know, we have to do
- 26:46Speaker 1: a very good job of you know, going from nine
- 26:48Speaker 1: to eighty first without actually seeing them in alive or
- 26:53Speaker 1: a practice type of competition, you know. Um, So again,
- 26:58Speaker 1: you know, we're trying to do things things that we
- 27:00Speaker 1: can get we can maximize our evaluation on these players
- 27:04Speaker 1: because I like a lot of these players that we
- 27:06Speaker 1: brought in. Um and and you know, our history has
- 27:09Speaker 1: been that you know, we've we've been fortunate, you know
- 27:12Speaker 1: with a lot of these guys that have come in
- 27:13Speaker 1: and and and had a good role. I mean you
- 27:16Speaker 1: look at you know, even teams in our past for
- 27:18Speaker 1: when I've been the head coach. You know, the first
- 27:21Speaker 1: year I was the head coach, we had one draft
- 27:23Speaker 1: pick and three undrafted free agents starting in our secondary
- 27:26Speaker 1: and we were one of the top teams in the league.
- 27:28Speaker 1: You know, so all of them were undrafted free agents,
- 27:30Speaker 1: you know. So, um, you know that's what's out there.
- 27:33Speaker 1: So it's, uh, it's tough. And I think the other
- 27:36Speaker 1: thing where they lose uh the opportunity to to go
- 27:40Speaker 1: ahead and get a job is you know, these preseason games.
- 27:44Speaker 1: It's kind of like, you know, and Jeff knows, there's
- 27:46Speaker 1: always a lot of talk of this fourth preseason game
- 27:49Speaker 1: that you don't need it, you know, And I kind
- 27:53Speaker 1: of viewed it a different way than than a lot
- 27:55Speaker 1: of other people. Um other words, I can understand it
- 27:58Speaker 1: from a veteran standpoint, you know, or a roster player.
- 28:01Speaker 1: You know that if you're going to be part of
- 28:03Speaker 1: the fifty three, you know, you don't want to go
- 28:06Speaker 1: into that last preseason game and have an injury that
- 28:08Speaker 1: may linger that is going to affect your first game.
- 28:11Speaker 1: I totally understand that, But I always looked at the
- 28:14Speaker 1: fourth preseason game as kind of kind of a reward
- 28:18Speaker 1: or an opportunity, however you want to look at it.
- 28:21Speaker 1: You know, for these guys that have been in camp,
- 28:24Speaker 1: that have given you everything they had that just for
- 28:26Speaker 1: some reason, maybe you're stacked at that position, you know,
- 28:30Speaker 1: maybe you feel that they're not good enough, but it
- 28:32Speaker 1: also gives them a chance to get something out there
- 28:34Speaker 1: on tape and that fourth preseason game where they can
- 28:38Speaker 1: get a job. I remember one year with the Jets,
- 28:41Speaker 1: we were you know, we had a veteran offensive line
- 28:44Speaker 1: and and uh, you know, we brought in a lot
- 28:46Speaker 1: of these young players, and you know, I did the
- 28:49Speaker 1: best job I could to coach those players. And really,
- 28:52Speaker 1: at the end of the day, my goal was that
- 28:54Speaker 1: I was going to play those guys and I was gonna,
- 28:56Speaker 1: you know, try to get them or work with them
- 28:58Speaker 1: to get them good enough to where they can get
- 28:59Speaker 1: a job. And I remember we wind up making um,
- 29:02Speaker 1: you know, four cuts. One we brought back for the
- 29:05Speaker 1: practice squab that the other three were picked up. And
- 29:08Speaker 1: I felt good that I was able to help those players,
- 29:13Speaker 1: you know, get those types of jobs. And you know,
- 29:16Speaker 1: I think that's that's something that that's gonna be missed
- 29:19Speaker 1: this year, at least to me. You know, Well, Doug
- 29:22Speaker 1: with obviously you're gonna get down to eighty because of
- 29:26Speaker 1: the situation you would have to be able to satisfy
- 29:29Speaker 1: playing the nineties, So you're gonna get down to eighty.
- 29:32Speaker 1: So when you go from eight to fifty three, how
- 29:36Speaker 1: many padded practices will you have the opportunity to evaluate
- 29:41Speaker 1: these guys on I mean, because you're talking about a
- 29:44Speaker 1: pretty small window because you're talking to ramp up and
- 29:47Speaker 1: everything else. So amount of practices to be able to
- 29:50Speaker 1: evaluate your roster to go from e d to fifty three?
- 29:53Speaker 1: How many is there? Yeah? I think I think the
- 29:56Speaker 1: maximum amount that you could have is they've given a
- 29:59Speaker 1: number like fourteen. But it's a little bit difficult to
- 30:03Speaker 1: get fourteen in um, at least for me for the
- 30:07Speaker 1: way I want to practice the team. So for us,
- 30:10Speaker 1: we'll have, you know, because that that part of it is, um,
- 30:14Speaker 1: I believe still going up to your first game, you
- 30:17Speaker 1: have to give him a day off. You can't go
- 30:18Speaker 1: in pads, you know, more than more than three days
- 30:21Speaker 1: in a row. So for us, uh, you know, I
- 30:24Speaker 1: have I have basically eleven days, So you have eleven
- 30:28Speaker 1: padded practices to make an evaluation on eighty guys to
- 30:33Speaker 1: determine who's gonna be your best fifty three. That is
- 30:36Speaker 1: incredibly challenging, right there. Yeah, I think it is. Especially
- 30:41Speaker 1: you know, it's probably you know, some teams it's probably
- 30:43Speaker 1: a little bit less challenging, you know, for us, it's
- 30:46Speaker 1: it's a little bit more challenging, you know, to see
- 30:48Speaker 1: you know what guys are gonna earn that spot. Um.
- 30:52Speaker 1: You know, it's like the same thing. That's why I
- 30:54Speaker 1: used to love practice and against other teams, you get
- 30:56Speaker 1: a ton of reps, you get more, even more evaluation.
- 30:59Speaker 1: So only do you get the preseason games taken away
- 31:02Speaker 1: from you, you know, you get those those joint practices
- 31:04Speaker 1: taken away, which I understand. So I'm not sitting here
- 31:07Speaker 1: complaining because you know, we all got to do the
- 31:09Speaker 1: same thing. But at the end of the day, that's
- 31:11Speaker 1: what we had to do in college. And I think
- 31:13Speaker 1: that you know, these situations that are going to occur
- 31:16Speaker 1: in games, the live contact, the live things that you're
- 31:19Speaker 1: gonna do. UM. You know, not to give anything away
- 31:22Speaker 1: to anyone else, but you just gotta look at, you know,
- 31:24Speaker 1: what you wanted to get out of the team and
- 31:26Speaker 1: in those preseason games, UM, and then those joint practices
- 31:31Speaker 1: and try to make sure that you get them in
- 31:33Speaker 1: those those eleven days of the padded practice because you
- 31:37Speaker 1: know the length of it, UM get you know, in
- 31:40Speaker 1: the past, it's given you more time, uh to do
- 31:44Speaker 1: you know, the padded practices. But even once you get
- 31:46Speaker 1: into the preseason, UM, like that second preseason game. Well,
- 31:51Speaker 1: you know, you know you're going to a normal week,
- 31:53Speaker 1: you might be in pads twice, but normally that third
- 31:56Speaker 1: preseason game, Um, except for back in the these and
- 32:00Speaker 1: maybe the nineties, you know what I'm saying. But I
- 32:02Speaker 1: think with the new cb A, you're never going to
- 32:03Speaker 1: see a team go out there probably practice four days
- 32:06Speaker 1: and paths prior to that third preseason game, and then
- 32:09Speaker 1: afterwards you have twenty four hours off and then you
- 32:11Speaker 1: want to make sure you bring him back in and
- 32:13Speaker 1: kind of ramp it back up again. So, um, you know,
- 32:16Speaker 1: it's a whole different world out there. Now. It's a
- 32:19Speaker 1: whole different world, so U we're kind of used to it.
- 32:22Speaker 1: Doug Marone, the four overall pick in the sixth round
- 32:26Speaker 1: of the INFL Draft. Good to see your coach. He's
- 32:32Speaker 1: trying to make amends. Doug. I'm fine with it. I
- 32:35Speaker 1: just think it's funny that, like you know, I mean,
- 32:38Speaker 1: there's enough negative stuff going around and he has to
- 32:40Speaker 1: remind me and then he has to say I'm an
- 32:43Speaker 1: undrafted like you know, I mean, I know I wasn't.
- 32:46Speaker 1: And then then he goes from well he wasn't a
- 32:48Speaker 1: high draft pick. You know what I mean, you just
- 32:51Speaker 1: just keep you just you know what it's like, Hey,
- 32:53Speaker 1: keep the head coach down. That's all right, JP, the hater.
- 32:57Speaker 1: I mean, it's what happens. We're not in the same room,
- 33:00Speaker 1: you know. I mean, we can can do this virtually now,
- 33:02Speaker 1: So I don't know, no, I think, I think, um,
- 33:05Speaker 1: you know, like I told Tad, I said, hey, why
- 33:07Speaker 1: do those guys get warmed up on some other guys
- 33:09Speaker 1: before I get into this show? You know what I'm saying.
- 33:11Speaker 1: And I caught. I caught the wrath of you know,
- 33:15Speaker 1: the greatest blunder. Now I'm gonna have to you know,
- 33:17Speaker 1: it'll probably be on all these other shows and everybody's undrafted. Guy.
- 33:22Speaker 1: That'll be like, you know, hey, and these guys don't

- 36:08Speaker 1: Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles J P. Shadrick,
- 36:12Speaker 1: Jeff Logoman our thanks to head coach Doug Broon joining
- 36:14Speaker 1: us on the opening show of the year. I found
- 36:18Speaker 1: it quite fascinating logs that he has not seen his
- 36:22Speaker 1: family for a while already and does not have plans
- 36:26Speaker 1: to for a long long time. That might be um
- 36:31Speaker 1: out of the ordinary, um, but for a head coach
- 36:35Speaker 1: who wants to make sure this thing stays as is,
- 36:39Speaker 1: this may not be too far fetched. Now. To expect
- 36:41Speaker 1: every coach to do that would be a little much,
- 36:44Speaker 1: most likely, But Doug is taking every precaution. It sounds like, yeah, yeah,
- 36:49Speaker 1: and uh, what a great sacrifice that he's got to
- 36:52Speaker 1: make and what others have to make as well to
- 36:55Speaker 1: be able to make an NFL season happen to be
- 36:59Speaker 1: able to socially distance yourself from your family for five
- 37:05Speaker 1: and a half months, six months. I mean, wow, that's
- 37:08Speaker 1: a that's a lot to ask, and it's certainly what's
- 37:12Speaker 1: required to be able to have an NFL season go off.
- 37:16Speaker 1: I think one of the things that really I didn't
- 37:19Speaker 1: even think about until we got into the conversation with
- 37:21Speaker 1: Doug about the evaluation process and determining who your roster
- 37:25Speaker 1: is gonna be. And I knew that we had to
- 37:27Speaker 1: ramp up, and you know, because some of the rules
- 37:29Speaker 1: are really just coming out as far as what the
- 37:31Speaker 1: particulars are, and fourteen practices prior to the first game
- 37:36Speaker 1: was what I had read. But the reason I asked
- 37:39Speaker 1: him about how many practices that you're gonna be able
- 37:41Speaker 1: to have to evaluate your roster when you make the
- 37:44Speaker 1: decision to go from eight down to fifty three, and
- 37:46Speaker 1: his answer was eleven. I mean, think about that, JP,
- 37:52Speaker 1: It's amazing. That's eleven practices, eleven padded practices, no games,
- 37:57Speaker 1: nothing else to evalue at your roster to formulate your roster.
- 38:03Speaker 1: That's not a whole lot. So when I when I
- 38:06Speaker 1: made the comments earlier about hey, you're gonna make a
- 38:08Speaker 1: lot of decisions based upon Todaith, I mean, there's a
- 38:12Speaker 1: perfect example of it. And not every padded practice is
- 38:16Speaker 1: equal either. I mean, I'm sure there's some. You can't
- 38:19Speaker 1: beat the heck out of these guys for eleven straight practices, right,
- 38:22Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta have a little bit of time down.
- 38:24Speaker 1: You might have pads on, but it's not like you're
- 38:26Speaker 1: going out there and bashing heads the whole three hours.
- 38:29Speaker 1: No you're not. I mean, just can and and alf sloo.
- 38:32Speaker 1: He had dug and mentioned about there's more of a
- 38:34Speaker 1: time restriction this year than there has been in the past.
- 38:37Speaker 1: So I mean, I don't know the particulars of that,
- 38:39Speaker 1: and maybe I just misheard what he said, but it
- 38:44Speaker 1: makes it even more challenging, you know. But but here's
- 38:46Speaker 1: the thing. I think that that Doug, I think has
- 38:48Speaker 1: done a really good job just from listening to him.
- 38:52Speaker 1: He's not sitting there bitching and complaining about this set
- 38:56Speaker 1: of rules that has been dropped upon him during a
- 38:59Speaker 1: global pandemic. He's accepted the fact these are the rules,
- 39:03Speaker 1: this is how it is, and let's go forward with
- 39:05Speaker 1: the way. It is no problem, let's just make it work.
- 39:08Speaker 1: And I think acceptance is a big part of that
- 39:10Speaker 1: instead of resistance. And so Doug I think it's clearly
- 39:14Speaker 1: taking the right step when it comes to that. And
- 39:16Speaker 1: and then the next step is is okay. Once you
- 39:18Speaker 1: have the acceptance, now you have to figure out what's
- 39:22Speaker 1: the best way to go about things with this this
- 39:24Speaker 1: new set of rules. Sitting there and complaining about a
- 39:27Speaker 1: set of rules or the circumstances that have been thrust
- 39:30Speaker 1: upon you given the other set of circumstances that you
- 39:33Speaker 1: already had, for example, young roster, young quarterback, et cetera.
- 39:37Speaker 1: Doesn't do anybody any good. So accept it. Let's just
- 39:41Speaker 1: make the best decisions that we can going forward and
- 39:44Speaker 1: make something happen as a football team. Let's come back
- 39:47Speaker 1: in a moment, we'll discuss the opting out that's happening
- 39:50Speaker 1: around the National Football League hasn't happened in Jacksonville yet.
- 39:53Speaker 1: It's the Doug Moron Show, presented by the Florida Department
- 39:56Speaker 1: of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles on Jaguars Radio out here,
- 40:04Speaker 1: Long time pool on her and big time Jacks fan.
- 40:06Speaker 1: I'm also a big fan of Leslie's pool supplies. They're great.
- 40:10Speaker 1: They always offer free water testing. I take them my
- 40:12Speaker 1: pool water twice a month. I also got my new
- 40:15Speaker 1: heat pumped from them. They installed it too, works great.
- 40:18Speaker 1: Love the Leslie Store team almost as much as my Jacks.
- 40:22Speaker 1: They're a close second. You should stop in. Wow. What
- 40:25Speaker 1: a pool store. With five Jacksonville stores, there's always one nearby.

- 42:22Speaker 1: Doug Moron Show continues right now, First Doug Morons Show
- 42:28Speaker 1: of the year, JP, Shadrick, Jeff Logaman our thanks to
- 42:31Speaker 1: head coach Doug Maron joining us in the first half
- 42:33Speaker 1: hour of the program and logs. It is uncharted territory
- 42:37Speaker 1: of the National Football League because a number of reasons,
- 42:41Speaker 1: but one of them being players can opt out of
- 42:44Speaker 1: this season. Players who opt out for medical reasons because
- 42:48Speaker 1: they are at high risk regarding COVID nineteen will receive
- 42:51Speaker 1: three hundred fifty thousand dollars for the season, and those
- 42:55Speaker 1: who opt out voluntarily will receive a hundred and fifty
- 42:58Speaker 1: thousand dollars for the sea is an undrafted Rookies who
- 43:01Speaker 1: opt up voluntarily are not eligible to earn that stipend,
- 43:05Speaker 1: but they have to pay it back, you know, in
- 43:08Speaker 1: next year's salary. In so you're seeing a number of
- 43:12Speaker 1: players around the league opting out already. There there's a
- 43:15Speaker 1: little bit of time left for players to do so too. Yeah,
- 43:19Speaker 1: And I think I said I said this to you earlier.
- 43:22Speaker 1: I really appreciate this rule that has been afforded for
- 43:26Speaker 1: the players as an option because there are players that
- 43:31Speaker 1: number one, are at risk themselves, but also they may
- 43:35Speaker 1: have a wife or a child who is at risk,
- 43:38Speaker 1: or they may be the caregiver for a parent, And
- 43:41Speaker 1: so I think it was a tremendous job by the
- 43:45Speaker 1: PA in the league to come to an agreement on
- 43:47Speaker 1: having something like this. Now, Uh, you did point out
- 43:51Speaker 1: and accurately so that you're talking about if you are
- 43:54Speaker 1: medically at risk, and I don't know who determines whether
- 43:57Speaker 1: somebody is medically at risk, that a dollar stipend that
- 44:01Speaker 1: you can take that would get deducted off of your
- 44:04Speaker 1: salary if you are not at risk and you decide
- 44:07Speaker 1: to opt out, it's a hundred fifty thousand, but it's
- 44:09Speaker 1: not eligible to undrafted rookie. So so any drafted rookie
- 44:13Speaker 1: could opt out and get a hundred fifty thousand and
- 44:15Speaker 1: it would actually come out of his paycheck for So,
- 44:18Speaker 1: I mean, I think those are all good rules. But
- 44:20Speaker 1: here's the thing I think that is also interesting. Did
- 44:24Speaker 1: the coaches have a decision like that? Uh? No, because
- 44:29Speaker 1: they're not collectively bargained because they're they're they're not a union,
- 44:33Speaker 1: should the coaches have had an option like that? In
- 44:37Speaker 1: my opinion, yes, um, I would guess though, lugs. You
- 44:42Speaker 1: know how tight enkit the coaching community is, even though
- 44:46Speaker 1: they're not a union and it's not official. When news
- 44:51Speaker 1: goes sour of some coach somewhere getting the short end
- 44:55Speaker 1: of a deal, that gets around the league pretty quickly,
- 44:58Speaker 1: doesn't it. Sure, sure, a good gets around the league
- 45:00Speaker 1: pretty quickly, But I mean, heck, I mean coaches are look,
- 45:05Speaker 1: football players were talking about medically risk. We're talking about,
- 45:08Speaker 1: for the most part, young men that are in their
- 45:11Speaker 1: twenties and some that are in their thirties, but not
- 45:14Speaker 1: very many now coaches. I mean, look Andy Reid. Andy
- 45:19Speaker 1: Reid is long and tooth and look, Andy Reid has
- 45:21Speaker 1: not been the picture of health over the last number
- 45:24Speaker 1: of years, and he read significantly overweight. Bruce Arians is
- 45:29Speaker 1: a guy who has had multiple battles with cancer. I mean,
- 45:31Speaker 1: you're talking about other coaches that have serious, serious physical
- 45:38Speaker 1: issues if they were to contract COVID nineteen. So I
- 45:42Speaker 1: just hope that that everything is going to be okay.
- 45:46Speaker 1: I don't hope that we don't have anything that is
- 45:50Speaker 1: horrific in the league. And death the one area that
- 45:54Speaker 1: that I do concern I'm a little bit concerned about
- 45:56Speaker 1: his offensive lineman. You know, offensive lineman. I mean they
- 45:59Speaker 1: were talking about human beings that are three thirty plus
- 46:03Speaker 1: pounds and even though they may be big and strong
- 46:08Speaker 1: and and be able to push the sled and push
- 46:10Speaker 1: guys down the field, Kenny withstand COVID nineteen. I mean,
- 46:16Speaker 1: or somebody's going to be susceptible because of the weight
- 46:20Speaker 1: that they carry. You know, it's been talked about that
- 46:23Speaker 1: obesity is one of the areas that that COVID nineteam
- 46:27Speaker 1: can attack. So a lot of concern in this season,
- 46:31Speaker 1: a lot of concern for the players, a lot of
- 46:33Speaker 1: concern for the coaches, and as I mentioned earlier with Doug,
- 46:37Speaker 1: there's a lot of staff people that are kind of
- 46:40Speaker 1: behind the scenes or not viewed as part of the program,
- 46:44Speaker 1: that are part of the program that are going to
- 46:46Speaker 1: be at risk, no doubt. Medical staff, athletic training staff,
- 46:50Speaker 1: equipment staff, video staff to a point has to be
- 46:55Speaker 1: in the same rooms. Maybe not at the same time
- 46:57Speaker 1: as players, but I mean the equipment staff right there,
- 47:00Speaker 1: they're handling the all the clothing and everything on a
- 47:03Speaker 1: daily basis. That's you can't get much closer than that.
- 47:07Speaker 1: When I was three years old, twenty four years old,
- 47:11Speaker 1: I had I had no worries, and I would have
- 47:13Speaker 1: no worries about COVID and be like, hey, look, you know,
- 47:16Speaker 1: I'll get it and I'll be fine. But you know,
- 47:19Speaker 1: when you start to hit thirty and you just have
- 47:21Speaker 1: family and you have other factors in your life that
- 47:23Speaker 1: you have to start thinking about, it's a little different.
- 47:27Speaker 1: Let's come back in a moment. Juggling practice schedules is

- 50:51Speaker 1: Morons Show rolls along JP Shadrick with Jeff Flagman. Thanks
- 50:56Speaker 1: to head coach Doug Maron, he joined us in the
- 50:58Speaker 1: first half hour of this program and we'll be here
- 51:02Speaker 1: every Thursday and no more. Preseason games, so we'll have
- 51:05Speaker 1: a few more Doug Morone shows than we're on the
- 51:07Speaker 1: schedule originally. UM, which is good. Um. You know it's different, obviously,
- 51:12Speaker 1: it's certainly different juggling the practice schedules. The rookies reported
- 51:16Speaker 1: a few days earlier for their testing and if they
- 51:19Speaker 1: passed three with negatives, then they're allowed in the building.
- 51:22Speaker 1: So rookies have been in the building. Veterans are still
- 51:25Speaker 1: in that testing process, except for the quarterbacks who are
- 51:28Speaker 1: in at the same time as the rookies, but veterans
- 51:31Speaker 1: are still in that testing process logs. So it's two
- 51:33Speaker 1: different kind of schedules of players around the building, not
- 51:36Speaker 1: around the building. And then all of a sudden, you've
- 51:39Speaker 1: mentioned the practices later in in training camp, but August
- 51:43Speaker 1: six is when the roster must be down to eighty
- 51:46Speaker 1: from nineties. So you know, you've got a couple of weeks,
- 51:48Speaker 1: a little over two weeks you're to figure that out
- 51:51Speaker 1: without a lot of the field. Let me correct something
- 51:54Speaker 1: real quick there. You talked about it has to be
- 51:55Speaker 1: down to eighty if you stay with ninety though, you
- 51:58Speaker 1: have to whole have to have whole different set of
- 52:01Speaker 1: circumstances to be able to operate by carry in ninety.
- 52:05Speaker 1: Those teams are expected before they start practicing to be
- 52:08Speaker 1: all the way down to eighty just because of the
- 52:11Speaker 1: the demands that will be put on you if you
- 52:14Speaker 1: have a roster of ninety. So I think every team
- 52:17Speaker 1: is gonna be down eighty before they even start practicing. Anyway. Um,
- 52:22Speaker 1: the other thing that I wanted to mention here real
- 52:24Speaker 1: quick is that you know, when you talk about how
- 52:26Speaker 1: everything is so different, we had how long do we
- 52:28Speaker 1: have doug on for thirty five ballpark? How many football
- 52:34Speaker 1: questions did we have with the head coaching thirty five
- 52:37Speaker 1: or many? I don't think any. I don't think any.
- 52:39Speaker 1: We think about that, I mean we did. We did
- 52:41Speaker 1: not have We did not ask him a question about
- 52:43Speaker 1: his quarterback, is running back, his defense in gock way. Uh.
- 52:49Speaker 1: We asked about opting out, We asked about social distancing,
- 52:53Speaker 1: We asked about the thing on his neck for distancing.
- 52:55Speaker 1: The yeah, you know, the coaching staff half and the
- 53:00Speaker 1: status not a new offense or all the new faces
- 53:04Speaker 1: on defense or a second year starting quarterback. And we're
- 53:07Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna get to all those things. But I
- 53:09Speaker 1: mean that ought to give you just kind of a
- 53:12Speaker 1: sample of what the storyline is gonna be for this
- 53:15Speaker 1: NFL season and four NFL teams as a whole. I
- 53:18Speaker 1: think each and every week, even though I mean at
- 53:20Speaker 1: some point you're gonna talk a little bit more about
- 53:22Speaker 1: the games. The curiosity, I think in the big storyline
- 53:26Speaker 1: this year is gonna be COVID nineteen as it relates
- 53:30Speaker 1: to fill in the blank next. That's what it is.
- 53:35Speaker 1: It's the greatest opponent in the NFL team has had
- 53:38Speaker 1: and we're not even close to the season yet. Let's
- 53:41Speaker 1: come back. Final thoughts ahead. It's the Doug Moron Show,

- 57:23Speaker 1: Shadrick with Jeff Logeman or thanks to head coach Doug
- 57:26Speaker 1: Marone for joining us in the first half hour five
- 57:29Speaker 1: minutes or so tonight from the head coach of the
- 57:31Speaker 1: opening Doug Moron Show of the campaign. Let's hope we
- 57:36Speaker 1: have a good many of them. This is as we've
- 57:39Speaker 1: touched on this all night logs and two different shows
- 57:41Speaker 1: here in Jacksonville, but this is the network show and
- 57:45Speaker 1: maybe the first time a lot of people have heard
- 57:46Speaker 1: from us in a while on the network. This is
- 57:49Speaker 1: uncharted territory in the month ahead, month and a half
- 57:52Speaker 1: ahead before the regular season, and there is really not
- 57:56Speaker 1: a blueprint. You can't even go back. I mean, there's
- 57:59Speaker 1: no body that was around in World War Two when
- 58:02Speaker 1: teams were combining to play games. The Stiegels, right, they're not,
- 58:06Speaker 1: you know, not many people involved in the NFL. At
- 58:08Speaker 1: least there are people still around. I didn't mean it
- 58:10Speaker 1: that way, but um, in terms of having a blueprint there.
- 58:14Speaker 1: It doesn't exist. Now, it doesn't exist. And here's the thing.
- 58:19Speaker 1: You didn't have much time to formulate that blueprint, you know,
- 58:22Speaker 1: as Doug talked about, and as we followed along, the
- 58:25Speaker 1: coaches and and genteral managers were getting their information from
- 58:29Speaker 1: the media because information was really hard to get because
- 58:34Speaker 1: of there was negotiations that were expected. So I mean, coaches,
- 58:38Speaker 1: general managers didn't have the opportunity to plan in advance,
- 58:42Speaker 1: to put this blueprint together to march forward. So I
- 58:45Speaker 1: gave the coaches and the general manager's a lot of
- 58:48Speaker 1: credit and also for adapting on the fly, because it
- 58:51Speaker 1: certainly is a challenging year for for everybody, and uh,
- 58:56Speaker 1: for the NFL to be able to pull this off,
- 58:58Speaker 1: I think it's going to be an incredible tall task,
- 59:01Speaker 1: but it's one I think that they're looking forward to,
- 59:03Speaker 1: and I think, uh, you know, for example, the Buffalo Bills,
- 59:08Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw them, that they decided
- 59:10Speaker 1: to do everything, um because they had like five positive
- 59:14Speaker 1: tests and they made the immediate decision that they were
- 59:17Speaker 1: going to do everything virtually to start out with like okay,
- 59:21Speaker 1: well that's just one example. The Miami Marlins, they had
- 59:23Speaker 1: their issue this week. I mean lots of things like
- 59:25Speaker 1: that could affect the seat. They could. We'll see if
- 59:29Speaker 1: we can move forward, and at least it's starting to
- 59:32Speaker 1: move A love great stuff. We'll talk to you again
- 59:35Speaker 1: next week or thanks to head coach Doug Maron as
- 59:38Speaker 1: well and to our entire crew for making all this go.
- 59:41Speaker 1: Today on the opening Doug Moron Show, presented by the
- 59:44Speaker 1: Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles on the
- 59:47Speaker 1: Jaguars Radio Network,
