• 0:52
  Speaker 1: little bit. Jaguars assistant coaches speaking with the media yesterday
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: ahead of the end of OTAs and a mandatory mini
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: camp next week and then the dead period ahead. So
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: a lot to get to on this Thursday. Jeff Logoman,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: good afternoon. Good to be back with you. It's been
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. We were off last week. Yeah,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: we're back, baby, No, it's good to be back, and
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see if we have a mini
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: camp to a tend next week. You know that's the feel, right.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: You know, the Vets didn't do much of anything last year,
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: and you know they went and played paintball today. Yeah.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: I had a little paintball trip today, which is cool.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I remember when I was in New York, Pete Carroll
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: was kind of the first one that I remember in
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: the National Football League that started to do things like this.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: And I remember one night, one afternoon we went bowling.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: We had a are you a good at bowling? No?
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Not really. I mean, you know, I think if I
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: can get one sixty, I'll be pretty happy. You know,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I'm over one hundred consistently, but I'm not great. We
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: should go bowling. We should. You know, it's a great idea.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: Give me a little time to heal up and I'll
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: be ready. But I like bowling. But here a couple
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: of cold ones. I'm a little better at it. Yeah.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: But we used to do a lot of fun things,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: and coaches like to do that to just create a
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: little bit of a distraction, but to also create the
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: teamwork atmosphere away from the building and to build the camaraderie.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: And Pete used to do it with We went bowling
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: one time. Another time we had a home run derby.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: So you had a guy pitching to you, you know,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: for your own position group. So every position group got
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: to pick one guy and then one guy from that
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: position group threw him pitches and it could have been underhand, overhand,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: didn't matter, and they counted home runs with a limited
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: number of pitches. Had a three point contest, you know,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: because Pete was a big basketball player. But I mean,
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: those things build camaraderie. It's cool that Doug is doing
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: something like this to build the camaraderie not just between
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: the players, but also the coaching staff and the football
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: staff and the players. Absolutely it is. And you know,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: it also tells you that Doug Peterson is probably happy
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: with the work they got in this offseason. If they're
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: canceling the tenth and final ota to go play paintball,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: that means they got some work done. Well, they got
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: They've had some really good work. And I've been fortunate
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: enough to watch quite a few practices and a team's
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: been working hard. The Miami Dolphins just announced last week
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: that they would not be having a mandatory mini camp,
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: So could the Jaguars and Doug Peterson follow suit with
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: some of that? You know, because kind of when players
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: around the league see that one team's canceled a mini camp,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: another team's veterans feel like, hey, our should be canceled too,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: let's do that. But I don't know what's gonna happen
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: either way. I got a feeling that the rookies aren't
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: going anywhere. You know, the rookies are gonna get work
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: in and the veterans may and they may not. Maybe
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: they only work for part of the mini camp. Maybe
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: they don't work at all, maybe they work all of it.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe they pick and choose some guys
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: to stick around, right, hey, right, but they look I mean,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: when you have the amount of of practices, I don't
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: want to say it becomes repetitive, because I mean, the
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: more that you work at your craft, the better that
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: you can get. But sometimes it can get a little
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: bit stale. And the coaches are looking to provide as
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: much of a mental break as they possibly can, because
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: when you come back, it's a grind. It's an absolute
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: grind for a regular season. A little bit later, we'll
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: hear from some assistant coaches. They were made available to
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: the media earlier this week, actually yesterday afternoon, on what
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: was a busy day around Tia bank Field with the
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: unveiling of the Stadium of the Future. The Jaguars have
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: been working for almost three years to assess the current
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: stadium and now working with HOK, they've produced designs for
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: the Stadium or the Future. They were presented yesterday at
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: ten o'clock in the morning and they are spectacular. The
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: fly through if you're watching on Jaguars dot com from
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: the promenade outside all the way through an expanded concourse
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: area and into a stadium bowl that has so many
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: new amenity, a roof over the top still at open
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: air end. There's a lot of innovation in this design
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: and it's been a long road to get to this point.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: But the time is now to at least make it
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: public and then the next couple of weeks there'll be
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: community huddles to have the community's input on as well. Yeah,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: I think it's going to be. It's got to be
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: obviously a partnership between the city and the team, and
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: there's a ways to go. But I mean, look, the
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: National Football League, you've got to have your stadium up
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: to date and to be able to have teams be
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: competitive and the rendering looks fantastic. I love the idea
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: of how they kind of have that first kind of
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: main level elevated to where you can see a little
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: bit of a distance to the city, et cetera, to
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: the river. And I like the idea of providing shade.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what that material is going to be.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: You don't want to lose the breeze, but they're saying
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: that it could cool inside of the stadium fifteen degrees
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: or more, which I mean that's hugely beneficial to the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: fans because it can get pretty warm, as everybody knows.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: But the other thing too that I think is critically important,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and Mark Lamping talked about this, is that the field
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: needs to stay natural grass. You know, there's been a
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: lot of conversation over the last couple of years with
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: the Players Association about how they want everybody to have
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: natural grass, and even some of the colder weather climents
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: are talking about making sure that they have grass, and
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: so you don't ever want to lose that, and I'm
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: sure that they're going to find a way to make
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: that that make that happen. Seating capacity for Jaguars games
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: just under sixty two thousand. It could be up above
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: seventy one thousand for college football Florida Georgia game, the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Gator Bowl, any college football playoff games that could be
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: down the pipeline as well, of course more than that
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: for concerts. There's all these designs available on First Downtown
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Jacksonville dot com and jack wars dot com to show
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: you the different ideas and iterations that could be in
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: this multi use space. And I mean the outside of
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: it is just just kind of cool looking, right, I
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: mean this kind of almost mirrored sunglass look on the outside. Yeah,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: I kind of curious does that Does that provide more
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: heat reflection? I think that's some of the ideas, right,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I mean that's what Yeah, that's what I'm thinking that
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: that maybe, but it definitely looks cool. It Uh, you know, look,
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: I'm all for it. You know. You go and you
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: look at some of the stadiums that we get the
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: opportunity to visit around the league, and I mean it's
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: it's it's amazing some of these new stadiums, I mean,
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: from Minnesota's to the one in LA to Jerry's World
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: in Dallas, which is even though it's been a few
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: years since it's been built. It's still an amazing facility.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, everybody is getting it seems like the latest
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: and greatest when it comes to facilities. And you know,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: this team has invested millions of dollars building their own
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: training facility which is right outside the stadium. And uh,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: you know, so this team is definitely committed to this
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: market and I'm looking forward to seeing the stadium come
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: to come to real life. That that is the first
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: part of this process. By the way, the opening of
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: the Miller Electric Center in less than a month now
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: is the start of the football team obviously getting out
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: of TIAA Bank Field. The next step is the office
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: buildings by the four seasons, the business side and theory
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: could go in there, and then all of a sudden
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: the stadium is empty and ready to be renovated and
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: in time. This is that's step one of the process
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: to get to what happened yesterday. Yeah, I know that
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: there's a lot of people, you know that have been
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: working incredibly hard at this, you know, Mark Lampion right
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: there at the top for the Jaguars organization and John
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: con as well. But I'm looking forward to seeing this
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: because you know, they've done an amazing job of making
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: sure that this stadium has has stayed kind of up
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: to date. And I think this is the next step,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: and it's a it's a natural step, and it's good
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: that I know that there was some conversation at some
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: point that would it be a new stadium or would
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: it be a remodeled stadium. And I know that the
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: price tag comes down significantly with a remodel as compared
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: to a new build, So that's a good thing. Well,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's remodeled basically in name, it's
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: basically a brand new stadium on the supports. Is what
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: it's going to feel, right, I mean, that's what it's
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: going to be at the end of the day. It's
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: going to feel like that anyway, with the expanded concourses
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: and everything that it's not even close to what it
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: is right now. Yeah, And so you know, the question
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: pops up and then you know what happens when that starts,
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: you know, and you know, you kind of cross that
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: bridge when you get to it. But there's options out there,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: and I think there's probably some exciting options out there
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: as well. Well. I'm sure we'll hear from Mark Lamping
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: on some of those topics, and we certainly did yesterday.
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: We'll replace some of that interview coming up Hey in
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks though, they'll have of fourteen
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: Huddle Up community huddle events over about a ten day
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: span throughout all the districts in Jacksonville. Well, you'll have
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: a chance to come out. Mark Lamping will be at
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: all of those in the coming week, so it starts
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: on Monday. They'll be in Springfield Monday, June thirteenth, they'll
• 10:19

• 10:22
  Speaker 1: full list at Jaguars dot com. By the way, I'm
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: not gonna go through all fourteen of these here, but
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: some are during lunchtime summer in you know, five o'clock hour,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: so they kind of get some different timeframes in there
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: for people to be able to take off work or
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: come early or come late, whatever you can make so
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: and you don't have to register or anything. Just come
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: and you don't have to go to the one in
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: your community. You can go to the other one. You
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: can go to any of these you want. They're wide open.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Which one are you going to? I'm going to probably
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: about ten of them, oh eighty, are you you're going

• 11:05
  Speaker 1: thing starts to get going. Oh man. And by the way, yes,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: the new practice facility, we're getting close. I mean, these
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: guys that are out there working their tails off are
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: doing an amazing job. I mean, just every week there's
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: been significant progress, especially over the last you know, four
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: and five, four or five weeks, and then they've done
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: a beautiful job with some of the landscaping and some
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: of the entryway to it on this side that we
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: can actually see when we coming in and out of
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: the stadium. I mean, just to credit to all the
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: people that have been working at that facility and how
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: much they've contributed, it's truly amazing. And the people that
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: are spearheading that, I mean, to be able to have
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: that done as fast as they've gotten it done, I mean,
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: that's that's pretty amazing. Just a few weeks away, and

• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Choe on the video, Joe Fortunado on the audio, Glad
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: you're with us. The Stadium of the Future unveiled yesterday day.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Not just the stadium, but the area around the stadium,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: the neighborhood, everything will be impacted. That's the idea. At
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: least all the renderings, designs and more at first Downtown
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: Jacksonville dot com. That's the number one st downtown Jacksonville
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: dot com or Jaguars dot com. Either way, they're both
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: free websites, that's correct. Check them out. Yesterday I caught
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: up with Jaguars President Mark Lamping and HKA Designed principal
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Peter Broder and discussed how we got to this point
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: and what went into the design of the Stadium of
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: the future. So, Mark, it's been a long road to
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: get to this point. How did we get here?
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: Well, it's a big day for sure. You know, we
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: first started the discussion, the public dialogue regarding the need
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: to deal with the stadium back in twenty sixteen, and
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: three years ago we began a formal process with the
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: City of Jacksonville, and you know, today marks the end
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: of that three year process with the unveiling of the design.
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: It was a very extensive process. It began with a
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: thorough evaluation of the existing stadium, which led us to
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: the conclusion that there was a possibility we could meet
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: our needs through a renovation. We then talked to our
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: fans and other stakeholders, primary amongst them the University of Florida,
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: University of Georgia, the tax Layer Bowl got input from
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: them in terms of what they would like to see
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: in a stadium in the future.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: We then had a very.
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: Extensive design competition. Firms from across the country presented their
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: conceptual designs, and last December we selected HOK and since
• 14:39
  Speaker 4: then we've been refining the design, working on the constructibility,
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: working on pricing, and we were just very excited to
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: be able to unveil today what the future could look like.
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: So Peter, obviously, some of the things that Mark just
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: talked about probably made this project so appealing for HOK
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: to try to jump been and get involved. What stood
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: out the.
• 15:01
  Speaker 5: Most, absolutely the potential for this project as a catalyst
• 15:05
  Speaker 5: not only for this running development for all of downtown
• 15:07
  Speaker 5: Jacksonville was enormously exciting for us. Really from the outset
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: of the design. The design process was equally thorough as
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: Mark outlined, and we really prioritized fan comfort and fan
• 15:19
  Speaker 5: experience first and foremost throughout every decision made through the
• 15:22
  Speaker 5: design process, and that factors into some of the amenities
• 15:25
  Speaker 5: that you see in the artwork that was unveiled today.
• 15:29
  Speaker 5: Tremendously excited about that, and it really begins with that
• 15:33
  Speaker 5: experience has shown here walking the promenade and entering through
• 15:37
  Speaker 5: a new landscape and new garden ways that lead you
• 15:39
  Speaker 5: to the concourse and to the front door of the building.
• 15:42
  Speaker 5: The concourses themselves now significantly expanded, as shown here, expanded
• 15:47
  Speaker 5: to the point where we've now doubled, tripled, and in
• 15:50
  Speaker 5: some areas quadrupled the width of those concourse spaces. A
• 15:54
  Speaker 5: lot of discussion and excitement obviously around the facade and
• 15:57
  Speaker 5: the roof that was designed in such a way again
• 16:00
  Speaker 5: to maximize fan comfort, to reduce solar heat gain, to
• 16:03
  Speaker 5: shield from inclement weather, and additionally it becomes a really
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: signature and iconic element to the design as well. It's
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: seldom I think that renovations are discussed as an icon
• 16:16
  Speaker 5: and this venue certainly has the opportunity to be just
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: that an icon.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Mark to That's the point he was talking about the roof.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I mean, that was really the number one thing you
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: heard from fans was the comfort in the stadium, the sun,
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: the way it sets here in the afternoon. In the fall,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: the east side of that stadium gets burned up. No
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: more with this design, well, you.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: Know, we had sad any solutions is that that does
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: not bring shade on every seat, we'd be doing a
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: disservice to our fans. So, you know, the concept that
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: Hok came up with, we think is just brilliant because
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: what it does is it is it reflects the heat.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: It provides the shade, but it doesn't do it in
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: a way that it diminishes the views from inside the
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: stadium looking out. So what looks like a metal reflector
• 17:02
  Speaker 4: around the stadium, you know, is actually a material. It's
• 17:05
  Speaker 4: very much like reflective sunglasses. It reflects when you're looking
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: at it from the outside, but when you're inside you
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: can look right through it and enjoy these tremendous vistas
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: of the Saint John's River, of downtown and all that
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: Jacksonville has to offer.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: It sounds like a sponsorship idea to me. Mark looking ahead,
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: all right, So the flexibility of this space, guys, I mean,
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: you mentioned some of the other stakeholders in the stadium
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: and maybe some ideas down the road for other events
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: that could come in here. How important were those discussions
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: in the design phase of you know, more seats, less seats,
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: different setups and everything.
• 17:37
  Speaker 5: Certainly it starts with the seats, and it actually starts
• 17:40
  Speaker 5: with the roof too. Maximizing the full usage of this
• 17:43
  Speaker 5: venue in a multipurpose fashion starts with a full roof canopy,
• 17:46
  Speaker 5: and so that was central to the design decisions from
• 17:49
  Speaker 5: a seating standpoint, Definitely thinking about flexibility for NFL events,
• 17:54
  Speaker 5: the ability to play to a home crowd of around
• 17:57
  Speaker 5: sixty two thousand seats was for and foremost part of
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: the design, but then the flexibility to expand for multipurpose events.
• 18:04
  Speaker 5: For the Florida Georgia game, we wanted to design the
• 18:07
  Speaker 5: expansion seating in a way that was as seamless as possible,
• 18:11
  Speaker 5: and that certainly factors into creating a terrific fan experience
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: for those Florida Georgia fans or attendees of any of
• 18:20
  Speaker 5: these expanded events, whether that's the Gator Bull the College
• 18:23
  Speaker 5: football playoffs, international soccer that was certainly factored into the
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: design thinking too, not just from a seating flexibility standpoint,
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: but from a character standpoint too, creating a truly international
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: stadium for soccer events.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of new stadiums that have come online
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: in the last few years around the NFL mark, but
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: this one looks to stand out. I mean, this is
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: a unique design and idea and the functionality that could
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: go with this thing is really fantastic.
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: Well, we don't think we have to make many sacrifices
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: by going with a renovation versus new build, and we
• 18:57
  Speaker 4: get so many other positives. I mean, just think about
• 19:00
  Speaker 4: the sustainability.
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: You know, we'll be using so much.
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: Fewer natural resources to make this stadium in the future possible,
• 19:09
  Speaker 4: and it's significantly less costly. You know, to build the
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: stadium that we released today, to do that on a
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: greenfield site someplace else here in Jacksonville would cost about
• 19:23
  Speaker 4: two point four billion dollars and the cost of the
• 19:27
  Speaker 4: renovation obviously significantly less than that.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: You know, we see some of the renderings outside the
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: stadium as well. But how important is this stadium and
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: this project to the city of Jacksonville, in downtown Jacksonville
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: in the future here, Mark.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: Well, I think it's critical. I mean, I think we're
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: at a very important time in the history of Jacksonville.
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: The city's on fire on every measure, The Jaguars are
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: in ascending position, and you know, the primary purpose is
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: to have our downtown. So many other downtowns across this
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: country and cities similar size of Jacksonville are smaller or larger,
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: to have that downtown become a real economic engine that
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: can generate the resources to help invest throughout the community,
• 20:13
  Speaker 4: particularly in those those underserved areas of Jacksonville. You know,
• 20:18
  Speaker 4: what we hope to do is try to replicate the
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: impact of what is what's been so positive with the
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: growth of the Brooklyn Livilla area that's you know, to
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: the to the west of downtown and you can physically
• 20:31
  Speaker 4: see how that investment in the Brooklyn area now is
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: moving eastward towards towards downtown. We think we can replicate that,
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: but we would do it on the east side of downtown,
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: and it means bringing of bringing a new neighborhood where
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: people have a chance to live, where they have a
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: chance to work, that serves as a great connector between
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: the Saint John's River to the sports complex, to the
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: out east neighborhood and beyond, and the stadium being in
• 21:00
  Speaker 4: an important part of that. And it's not just you know,
• 21:03
  Speaker 4: securing the future of the Jaguars, it's it's protecting the
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: the very important UH Florida Georgia game that has happened
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: here every year, and it's something that is really important
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: for all of us here in Jacksonville, trying to elevate
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: the the Gator Bowl so it could be a legitimate
• 21:21
  Speaker 4: candidate to become part of an expanded college football playoffs,
• 21:26
  Speaker 4: to be able to tract other events international soccer we mentioned,
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: but concerts and and and events that can make a
• 21:37
  Speaker 4: big impact in this community. And there isn't a new
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: stadium or arena that's being built around the country that
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: isn't being master planned, you know, with an entertainment district
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: as part of it. Because as these rights holders, people
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: that that that that make the decision on where these
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: events go, they want to make sure that they're that
• 21:53
  Speaker 4: they're fans, that their customers have things to do before, during,
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: and after these events. And investment like this, even as
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: far as the NFL is concerned, you know, puts us
• 22:03
  Speaker 4: in a legitimate position to be able to compete for
• 22:05
  Speaker 4: the NFL Draft. I think all of those are big
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: things for the community, and you know, I think now's
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: our time.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: As Jaguars President Mark Lamping n HOK design principal Peter
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: Broder a conversation that ran yesterday. It's available on Jaguars
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: dot com. Check out the full conversation there, Loggs, what
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: do you think? I mean, it's exciting and and obviously
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: two guys that have put a lot of hard work
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: in and there's some of the design stuff that they
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: come up with. You're just like, wow, how do you
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: think of that? You know, because I mean if you
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: go back to a couple of years ago, some of
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: the renderings of possibilities were kind of these canvas kind
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: of coverings over the stadium and and al sudden you
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: come up to this reflective glass that you can't see
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: him but you can see out of that looks like
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: essentially Tom Cruise's ray bans from top gun. I mean,
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: that's that's cool, right, Like a cabling system them to
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: keep it all up and everything. That's remarkable. It's pretty uh,
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: I guess you could say it's It would definitely set
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: it apart. I mean, if you have something of that
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: nature of you know, if that rendering comes to fruition,
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, it would be truly a landmark achievement for
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: this city and certainly a place for a lot of
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: people to go, Wow, that's our place, right, Yeah, no
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: doubt about that. And by the way, go check out
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: the community huddle schedule. It's coming up starting Monday. The
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: first one will be in a String Sports Brewery, Springfield,
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: lunchtime eleven thirty Monday, June twelfth. The final one June
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: twenty second at the Jacksonville Zoue in Gardens. That's also
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: an eleven thirty win. There's a handful of them that
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: are at five o'clock in the afternoon. Check out the
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: full schedule at the Zoo. At the Zoo, did you hear?
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we got some breaking news from the zoo
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: today on social media. Got a baby jaguar that was
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: born today. All right, that's pretty cool. Yeah, I wonder
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: what they're gonna name it. Well, so last time this happened,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: there was a naming contest. Jaguars were involved, and yes,
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: this happened. So this is ten years ago. Gus Bradley's
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: the head coach. They had some there was some fan
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: rally in the stadium. I forget for what something was
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: going on, but part of this fan rally was the
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: announcement of the new name of the baby jaguar. That
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: the contest had come through and the name. So Gus
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Bradley was tapped to come out and announce this name.
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: So Gus being Gus gets up there and brings his
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: Gus Bradley energy with him, and you know, they pull
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: the name out or whatever it is. They give him
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: the name. He said, the new name is con and
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: like like the crowd goes crazy, and that was it.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: I wonder what the name of this one's gonna and
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: he called it. He called the Jaguars Jiggs j the
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: Jigs those ten years ago. So I wonder what the
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: new name is gonna be. I don't know, but I've
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: got a couple guesses, like Sir Lawrence or Trevor. I mean,
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: is that would not not be fitting? That probably a
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: good guess. I mean, look, I mean this is name
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: him sixteen right, nah? The number I mean you know,
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: I mean it's like seven. Yeah, I don't know. I
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: don't know. No, I kind of like sir, Sir Lawrence
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: kind of that. You know, why, we'll come back. We'll
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: think about it. It's not very often, I mean, it's
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: not very often that you have a jaguar born in
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Captain Well. I mean it's apparently once a decade. Cool stuff.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: You gotta go check it out. So maybe I'll make
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: the huddle one that's at the zoo. What's the date
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: of that, June twenty second. I might make that one
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: so I can go check out the new Jaguar or
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: the new Jig. We're back in a moment. Hey, imagine this.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about football when we come back. That's
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: going on as well. Jaguars assistant coaches met with the
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: media yesterday. We'll get their thoughts on what's going on
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: and a few different position groups and calling. All Jags fans,

  Speaker 3: Mike Demsey and Fat Tony Jaguars Today, Old Jaguars all NFL,
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: all the time, tended New weekdays on ten ten XL.
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it doesn't change anything.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: For us.
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: I mean, obviously I think anything, it's gotta work even harder.
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: I mean, it doesn't really change anything for us to
• 27:16
  Speaker 6: regardless of the expectations for the game is played on Sunday.
• 27:20
  Speaker 6: You gotta go out there and play the game. Regardless
• 27:22
  Speaker 6: of people think you're gonna win, think you're gonna lose,
• 27:23
  Speaker 6: doesn't really matter. So and that's the mindset we had
• 27:26
  Speaker 6: last year, being pretty much underdog in every game, and
• 27:28
  Speaker 6: we got to carry that over this year too. We
• 27:30
  Speaker 6: still have to have that chip on our shoulder and
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: prepare the same way.
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: You know, we didn't.
• 27:34
  Speaker 6: We still didn't get to where we wanted two last year,
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: so we have a lot.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: More work to do. That's the quarterback and maybe the
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: new name of the new Jaguar at the Zoo. Trevor Lawrence,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to Jaguars Happy Hour. I'm JP Shadwick, Jeff Flogoman.
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: We heard from Mark Lamping earlier Jaguars President, the stadium
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: of the future design at least initially unveiled, and that
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: process is moving forward. But you know that comment about
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: being the hunt head now instead of the hunter, there's
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: a lot of people they're not going to sneak up
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: on anybody. But according to the quarterback there, it doesn't
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: really change a whole lot of your preparation. Maybe the
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: mindset on going into a game could be a little different.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I think the one thing is that you want to
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: take the natural steps of becoming one of those teams
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: that is a contender year in a year out, that
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, right, you're just there, and you don't
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: want to have the mindset, well, you know this year,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: we need to be different because we're the hunter or
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: the hunted. I mean, you don't have to you take
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: the mindset is that, look, we're a good football team.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: We know it, but we still have to prove it
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: and we still have to put in the hard work.
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: And you got to have the confidence in a little
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: bit of that swagger once you get on the field,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: and that's I think important, but you still have to
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: be able to put in the hard work and that's
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: the hard part. That's why you see a lot of
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: teams that have these ebbs and flows from season to season,
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: but then when you have true greatness, it's a consistency
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: that's their year in and year out. Because the expectation
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: of being a contender is there every year. You know,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: the Patriots, the Steelers for so many years. I mean
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: the teams that year in and year out. I mean
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: right now, the Philadelphia Eagles have worked their way into
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: that mindset. The San Francisco forty nine Ers are a
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: quarterback away from being in that conversation year in and
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: year out. So that's where you want to be in
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: Right now, You're sitting there poised with a great quarterback,
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: young quarterback that should be able to take even more
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: steps to becoming one of the elite quarterbacks in the league.
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: And that's exciting because if you have that player that position,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: you have a chance. Jaguar's assistant coaches speaking yesterday, there
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: were two windows, forty five minute round table sessions with
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: the offensive staff then their defensive staff first, then the
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: offensive staff second. Let's start on defense. Yesterday, outside linebackers
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: coach Bill Schuey discussing Josh Allen and turning those many
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: pressures into sacks.
• 30:10
  Speaker 7: Josh is working. He understands there's a little bit of
• 30:12
  Speaker 7: a gap to close right there between the pressures and
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: the sacks, but the pressures are important. He does a
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: good job there. He does a good job in the
• 30:20
  Speaker 7: run game. You know, he sets great edges in.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: The run games.
• 30:24
  Speaker 7: He plays with great effort, He's all over the field,
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: you know. To your point, yeah, he does a lot
• 30:29
  Speaker 7: for the team outside of just the sacking. It was,
• 30:32
  Speaker 7: but I think at the end of the day, you know,
• 30:35
  Speaker 7: he'll tell you and I'll tell you the same thing.
• 30:36
  Speaker 7: We gotta get more sacked production.
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: Josh Allen one of two players who has not been
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: in attendance for the voluntary offseason program. The mandatory part
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: is at least on the schedule for next week. We'll
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: see if he comes to town for it, and hey,
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: it's your five for him. And he was great down
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: the stretch logs, so the last five weeks of the
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: season were fantastic. He was the right place, right time,
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: made some big plays and big moments. How does he
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: expand that to seventeen games? I mean consistency and production.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's really what Josh needs to achieve,
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: and and sometimes things get in the way of that,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: whether it be the circumstances around you that are out
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: of your control, for example, you know, the quality of
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: your team overall, and then some of that can be physically.
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: You get beat up, you know, you might have some
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: injuries that you're contenting with, but you know, I think
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: Bill is right and that the one thing you don't
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: question with Josh is the player that comes to work
• 31:37
  Speaker 1: each and every day, and it comes to play each
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: and every Sunday or Monday or Thursday or whatever day
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: it's going to be. It hasn't been Monday in a
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: long time. No, I know, but you can actually say
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: that now. But you love Josh as a person, you
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: love him as a leader, and he's on the last
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: year of his deal, and so he is choosing not
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: to participate and that's okay, whatever it takes for him.
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: And if he ends up having a highly production to year,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: then you know that the team's going to have a
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: decision to make, you know. And they still got the
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: ability to use a franchise tag and also the ability
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: to sign them to a long term contract. You know.
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: But I think you just you don't ever rest with
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: where you're at. I mean, as an organization, you always
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: look to improve. And I think that's one of the
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: reasons why they went out and they drafted another edged
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: type of outside linebacker from Louisville that uh yeah, and
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: he's you know, he's not a high pick, but he's
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: certainly a high enough pick to where you expected him
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: that he's going to come in and have some kind
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: of an impact. And then also you have to exhaust
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: all of the opportunities that are out there in the
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: free free agent market. And what is that Danielle Hunter? Yeah,
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: Danil Hunter is reportedly available. Yeah, that's right, because the
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Vikings are going through some restructuring. They're trying to get
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: a new GM. They're trying to figure out, so the
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: running back has been is apparently going to be cut tomorrow.
• 32:57
  Speaker 1: They're trying to gnaviate for him. Uh, that's just a
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: couple of changes already. And apparently Daniel Hunter is on
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: the market as well. And look at it. He's a
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: he's a marvelous player. And right now I think his
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: cap number is right around a little I think five
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: and a half million something like that. I mean, look,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: you look at everything and Hunters, I mean an unbelievable athlete.
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, this guy's got some freakish qualities. So do
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: you look at that absolutely? I mean, because right now
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: you you you don't have you know, you're you're talking
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: about taking Trayvon Walker, maybe moving him inside and getting
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: some snaps as an inside pass rusher. Okay, well, if
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: that's the case, then who's going to be rushing on
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: the other side on the outside? I mean well, I
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: mean Hunter would look good on the other side. It's
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: sure he would, you know. I mean he's a good
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: football player and like I said, he's got freakish athletic
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: ability and he's been productive in his career. Uh, that's
• 33:50
  Speaker 1: something that you definitely take a look at. You got
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: to take a look at everything. I mean, it's a
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: football team. Just like when they when they made the
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: change at kicker, they said, look, even if it's getting
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: better by one percent, you still have to exhaust every
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: possible avenue to commit to make your team better. And
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: I think that Trent Balkey and Doug Peterson and the
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: coaching staff, I'm sure we'll be looking at all available options,
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: and that may be one of them. Jaguars Happy Hour
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: on ten ten XLAM and Jaguars dot Com, JP Shadwick,
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: Jeff Logoman. Let's flip to the offense. Trevor Lawrence, back
• 34:23
  Speaker 1: in year two last season, continued his growth on the field,
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: but on the sideline as well. According to quarterbacks coach
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Mike McCoy.
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: His voice carries a lot of weed. Yeah, when he
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: speaks up, whether it's in practice, whether it's in a meeting,
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: whether it's on game day, everybody listens, right, and so
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: it's important for him to understand that, you know, as
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: he's you know, spent plenty of time in here. He
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: knows every little detail now the system to or if
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: it's not right, he's got to fix it. Because you
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: only have so much time on game day. So if
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: they're not doing whether it's in a huddle, whether it's
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: the sideline, there's only so much time in between series.
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: You got to communicate and tell you know, we.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: Talk to Christian about Hey, the next time we run
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: this route, Hey, if you do that, I got to
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: make sure I understand you're going to dive down on
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: this technique. So we are on the same page so
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: we don't miss that. And I think if you if
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: you watched him from the first week in Washington to
• 35:16
  Speaker 2: the very last game in Kansas City, you saw him
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: at the end of the year come right off the side,
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: right off the field, go to whoever he wanted to
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: talk to, whether it was a phil the offensive line coach,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: whether it's an offensive lineman, any position, or go to
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: Doug and say, coach, maybe let's get back to this.
• 35:32
  Speaker 2: I just I miss that. Yeah, that's part of becoming
• 35:36
  Speaker 2: a problem.
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: It's Mike McCoy, Jaguarris quarterbacks coach, and yeah, it just
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: it builds over time, your your confidence and ability to
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: go to anybody on this roster and say what you
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: need to say. I think what's impressive to kind of
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: take a little different angle here from that interview is
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: that obviously your angles Trevor, and my angle here is
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: Mike McCoy. I mean, if you look at the staff
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: that Doug Peterson has put together, right, and some of
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: the offensive minds that he has, I mean every week
• 36:08
  Speaker 1: during the regular season, you sit there and you watch
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: some of the plays that they come up with, and
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: you go, wow, that's great. You know, some of the
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: fast motions in and he come back and buzz to
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: the out. I mean, some of those things that they
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: were doing was just I mean next level. And when
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: you're an offensive coach and you can come up with
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: creative plays that week in and week out, you're sitting
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: there making people go wow, it's impressive. And Mike McCoy
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: is an excellent coach, and I think it was a
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: big part of Trevor's development and getting over that hurdle
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: last year. I mean you got Mike McCoy and Press
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: Taylor and Doug Peterson. I mean, I mean even their
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: offensive line coach Phil Rauscher was the one who designed
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: some of those short yardage plays that they had last
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: year that paid dividends for this football team, right. I mean,
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: they get so many different contributions from the staff, and
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: I think that the challenge I think this year for
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: this football team is that can the defensive staff kind
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: of match some of that and get that defensive side
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: of the ball to take a big step forward from
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: a productivity standpoint and also schematically, I think there's a
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: lot of things that they can do defensively this year
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: to get better. As a staff. Let's finish up with
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: the wide receivers and coach Chad hall Iner and he
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: Inherits easy for me to say a deep wide receiver room.
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: Christian Kirkins A Jones of course, both over a thousand
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: yards last season. Calvin Ridley's in the mix now. Hall
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: explained yesterday what he's most excited about.
• 37:38
  Speaker 8: One of the best things about coaching is the relationships
• 37:41
  Speaker 8: you create. So the guys in the room are great,
• 37:45
  Speaker 8: they you know they if you got guys who work
• 37:50
  Speaker 8: hard and are unselfish and don't care about anything but
• 37:53
  Speaker 8: winning and helping each other, I mean, those are the
• 37:55
  Speaker 8: guys and the guys who want to be around and
• 37:57
  Speaker 8: learning their stories and figuring out where they came from
• 38:01
  Speaker 8: and building those relationships, becoming vulnerable with each other because
• 38:04
  Speaker 8: then when bullets are flying, anything gonna be said. No
• 38:06
  Speaker 8: one takes it personally. It's just, hey, we're trying to
• 38:08
  Speaker 8: win this game. So I think that's what the offseason's
• 38:11
  Speaker 8: all about, especially when you have new guys or I'm
• 38:13
  Speaker 8: the only new you know, I'm the new one coming in.
• 38:16
  Speaker 8: Just creating those relationships takes time.
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: Chad seems like a really chill, kind of laid back
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: kind of bro and it's nice hearing him really for
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: the first time in front of the media in Jacksonville.
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: He was with the Jaguars in twenty fourteen in the
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: offseason for like ten days and that was the end
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: of his career as a player, and then his coach
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: in the NFL with the Bills for a couple number
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: of years and now with the Jags. So he was
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: an offensive assistant for two years in Buffalo, then a
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: wide receivers coach for four years, and now with the Jags.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: And what a room to come into, right, what a
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: situation for chadwall Well, he did a great job with
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Diggs in Buffalo and a lot of people think, well,
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: you know, he's a superstar. He didn't need coaching. Oh no,
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, you still coach some of the some
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: of the players that you have eating with their excellent players.
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: But he, I think has said it exactly right and
• 39:04
  Speaker 1: that when you have a room that's unselfish, it's just
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: easy to handle a room like that and to coach
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: a room like that. And we know last year from
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: watching and you saw me pointed out many times on
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: film about how Willing and Christian Kirk and Zay Jones
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: were to block. That showed how unselfish they were and
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: how committed to the team that they were. And now
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: you're adding Calvin Ridley, and Calvin's got to have that
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: same mindset, and I think he will. He's going to
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: want to make sure that he fits. But with the
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: addition of Calvin Ridley, what I'm excited about too, is
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: that I think it's going to make Christian Kirk even
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: more comfortable because last year I think they were asking
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: some different things out of Christian Kirk that took him
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: a little bit out of his comfort zone because where
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: is he home at in the slot absolutely all day long.
• 39:50
  Speaker 1: And if you look at the numbers, I mean from
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: you know, the Pro Football Focus had numerous stats last
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: year that he was one of the most highly productive
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: receivers from the slot, and that's where he needs to
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: be to be at home. And so with Calvin Ridley,
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: who's an excellent player on his own right being on
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: the football field, it's going to allow Christian Kirk to
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: be able to be in that slot. And so it's
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: gonna be exciting JP to watch how all of these
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: weapons are gonna be kind of melded together to become
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: one because they got a lot of weapons, a lot.
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: I mean they drafted I mean we're talking in skill
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: position weapons now, I mean they drafted two in the
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: first three rounds. You know, tight end and running back.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: How are they gonna fit in with the existing tight
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: ends and running back room. I mean, it's it's gonna
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: be fun there's only one football though, that's okay. And
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: I also think that that's where Trevor is gonna be
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: I think really good because he's a strong leader, and
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: he's a natural leader, and that now that he's had success, okay,
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: now he gets to grow not only as a player,
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: but he also gets to grow as a leader. And
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: I think he's been a natural leader from the very beginning.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: But now there's a comfort level and being that. And
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: so when you have somebody who's a very strong leader
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: at that position, anything that can kind of pop up
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: when that, hey, I'm not getting the ball enough, those
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: things can get squelched a little bit with a strong
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: leader in front of the huddle. Whether you want to
• 41:17

• 42:32
  Speaker 1: do just cooling that area. I can love it. I

  Speaker 1: It will be open for business in July and training
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: camp will be right there. Reminds me of the Tom
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: Coughlin days when they used to have the penalty box
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: for the media and they had they literally drew a
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: white line and made a box and you had in
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: that box. So when when I stopped playing and became
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: a part of the Jaguars broadcasting stuff, I had to
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: be in penalty box, and so I used to sentially
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: stand outside of that box just so that he would
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: come over and say something, just so you can get
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: a bite from me. Of course, yeah, of course, of course,
• 43:30

• 43:33
  Speaker 1: had always. He didn't miss it, No, he did not
• 43:37

• 43:42
  Speaker 1: So we're looking forward to that. That's coming up. That's

  Speaker 1: of a big deal. See if we can get the
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: Beselli couch, that might be a fun evening. Yes, this
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: is Jaguars Happy hour. Let's go around the NFL, The
• 44:43
  Speaker 1: Vikings apparently are set to release Pro Bowl running back
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. They're expected to release him Friday. According to
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: the NFL Network reporter Tom Pelsero could be a last
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: minute trade, though, of course, between now and then, he
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: was due a ten point four million dollar base salary
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: in twenty three. He's twenty seven years old. They'll save
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: nine million off the cap this season if they cut him.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: And he's coming off four straight seasons over eleven hundred
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: yards and four consecutive Pro Bowls, and you're letting him go,
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: see you, what are you doing about that salary cap?
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: They got to I get it, but I mean he's
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: still a good football player. And look, I mean, you
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: have to pay good football players. And the unfortunate thing
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: is the timing of this for Dalvin Cook. Okay, a
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: lot of teams have already committed percentages of their salary
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: cap for free agents, and now he's gonna end up
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: being a free agent kind of late in the game
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: and doesn't really have any way to kind of get
• 45:44
  Speaker 1: that money back, so to speak. Maybe right, And that's tough.
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's why you see players when they get
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: to the end like where he's at, that they say,
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: wait a minute, I need to have my contract extended,
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: because it forces the hand of the team to either
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: put up or shut up, and then allows the player
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: to get to the market while they're still still money available.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: That's a tough spot for him to be in. NFL
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: teams are adjusting off season program schedules late in the
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: week due to the air quality in some northeastern US states.
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: The Giants canceled Thursday's OHTA session, not even worried about
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: going inside. The Ravens, Jets, Eagles, and Commanders all moved
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: their Thursday practice inside wildfires in Canada, and CBS reported
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: Thursday logs that the air quality Index in New York
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: City hit a high of four hundred and eighty four.
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: The scale is zero to five hundred. That would have
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: made it the worst air quality of any major city
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: in the world. Yes, yeah, similar to what we experienced.
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: I guess it was the the Okefinoki fire a few
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: years back. I remember getting some of that smoke. Yes,
• 46:52
  Speaker 1: and you know, and I hope that you know. There's
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: no lives lost up there in Canada, but could be
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: good for American producers of wood products. The DeAndre Hopkins
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: will visit. So that's all about it. To consider the source.
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins will visit with the Tennessee Titans, his first
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: free agent visit. He's flying to Tennessee Sunday. The Cardinals
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: released him in late May after failing to find a
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: worthy trade offer. The receivers right now for the Titans
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: Treylon Burks, Kyle Phillips, and Nick Westbrook Akine. So this
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: would be a step up. I think if you were
• 47:30
  Speaker 1: to show up in Tennessee right coming could be you know.
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: The question is is can they get him a ball
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: right hey? And what's the quarterback situation going to be
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: in Tennessee long term? Great question you know, and the
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: reality is that that's not really a pass first offense. Okay,
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: not close. So is that what he's looking for? Like,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: I think he's a Marvel's player, DeAndre Hopkins. I'm talking
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: specifically about him. He's a good football player, that guy can.
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, he's got great catch radius, he's got great routes.
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: Some of the battles that him and Jalen Ramsey had
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: years ago were epic and it was worth the price
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: of admission just to watch that. He slowed down a
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: little bit. He's a possession receiver now, and so the
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: question becomes, where's the sweet spot from a number standpoint
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: for a guy who's i mean, still a great receiver,
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: but the big play potential has eroded somewhat. We'll find out.
• 48:40
  Speaker 1: The off season programs are winding down. We're a week
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: away from the end of the off season program and
• 48:47
  Speaker 1: the start of the dead period. We'll have one more
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: show logs and then we hit the dead period and
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: we are dead. We're dead dead, is can do? We're
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: gonna take a little break, Yes, all right, I am.
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know about you. You can come to a
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: show if you want. No, No, I take a break
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be here. I'll take a break. Are
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: you going back to Alabama? I'll go up there for
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: a little bit. You know, you hang out with Nick
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: talk ball. No no, no, no, no, no, none of that.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: I'm sure you're gonna end up in the woods at
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: some point. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm doing a little bit
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: of that. I'm doing good. We'll dig into that next
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: week on our approach at summertime. JP. It's coming quick.
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: The next time after next week we do the show.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: It might be across the street and might have a
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: name for the new baby jaguar. I guess you got
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: called a kitten. Is that what you call it? Baby
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: jaguar cub? Is it a cop? Or is it a kitten?
• 49:42
  Speaker 1: It depends on the as a cat right and theory? Yes,
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, but you don't call a lion a kitten, right?
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: You call it a cub that's also a cat. But
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: is a jaguar cub or a kit? I haven't met
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: many baby jaguars. I don't know how to you know. Besides,
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: one way to do that is go to the zoo
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: huddle up on June twenty second. We can ask that
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: question there as well as we can ask questions of Mark.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: That's the one question Mark Lamping might not be able
• 50:10
  Speaker 1: to answer. He can answer all the rest for you.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: About the Stadium of the future, we're told it's a cup.
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: It's a cup. I like kidding. Good Talk logs fall
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: stick with a cup. That's Jeff Logman or thanks to
• 50:24
  Speaker 1: David Joe, Joe Fortunado, I'm JP Shadrick. We learned a
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: lot today on Jaguars Happy Hour.
