  Speaker 3: after the twenty twenty four campaign, and planny to get
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: to today. The coordinators all spoke today with the media.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: Well here's what the highlights of that cutting up. GM
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: interviews are underway and we're closing in two weeks away
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: from the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis. Jaguars Happy Hour
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: is presented by dream Fires Homes, official homebuilder of the
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: Jacksonville Jaguars, bruts into the exel, Jaguars dot Com and
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: Jaguars YouTube.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: JP Shadrick with Jeff Logeman. Could after do a JP?
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: How the hell are you? I'm doing good? I'm doing good.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Had an ice break. A little disappointing that the last
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: week that we had off we got to watch a
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl. That wasn't that entertaining a little disappointment there.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: So if you're an Eagles fan, but I'm not an
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Eagles fan, I'm a I'm a football fan, and I
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: was hoping for a good game and didn't get it,
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: got a got a whooping.
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: The Chiefs look dead in the game.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: You know it. It goes back to the philosophy of
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: it starts up front, and Kansas City was very fortunate
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: to be able to have Joe Tooney kind of get
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: them to where they were kind of limping along at
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: that left tackle spot, and then it just the damn
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: kind of broke a little bit against the Philadelphia Eagles.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: And they've got a lot of really good players up
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: front on both sides of the ball. And if it
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: was ever apparent that you need to build a good
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: football team from the front going back, I think that
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: would be the perfect example of that. Yeah, both lines
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: of scrimmage. In fact, well, I mean, the Eagles arguably
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: have the most talented offensive and defensive lines in football.
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: Clear I think defensive line wise, the defensive tackle position
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: for the Eagles is just super powerful. The edges aren't
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: as good, but the interior is absolutely dominant, I mean dominant,
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: and the offensive line, I mean, what can you say
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: about them? I mean that with Sakuon Barkley and Jalen Hurtz,
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: who is a threat to run the ball, I mean
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: kind of a perfect combination there. Just kind of like
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: what you saw in Baltimore, teaming up a great running
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: back with a mobile quarterback and Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Now they're not going anywhere anytime soon.
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: Certainly.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of the stories down out after the
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl all the Chiefs are done and they're not
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: gonna be back, and Andy should retire. I'm like, you know,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: there's still the Chiefs. They still have There's a reason
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: they've been.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: To all these super Bowls. It's not like they're just
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: going to magically stop winning.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: He's still the greatest quarterback in the National Football League
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: and Patrick Malks and and look, when you have the
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: greatest quarterback in the league, you're gonna have a chance
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: to win. And they've got it. They've got some work
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: to do in Kansas City to get back to where
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: they need to be with that offensive front that they've got,
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: and and defensively they've they've lost some talent. Chris Jones
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: is starting to get a little bit older. Do they
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: have a guy that can be the next guy inside
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: for the Kansas City Chiefs? They don't. I mean, just
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: like this team, the Jaguars don't have a dominant inside presence.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: You know, Ken Eric Armstead be that. You know, he's
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: kind of long and tooth. He didn't really play inside
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: this past year. Can he move inside and be productive
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: from that standpoint? You know, we'll see. But I mean,
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: having on at interior players is what you want to
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: have to combine with really good edge players. This team
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: here in Jacksonville's got two good edge players. Where's the
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: help inside?
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: I gotta find it somewhere. We'll get to the coordinators
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: who spoke today, including Anthony Campanelli, the defensive coordinator who
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: talked about such things today, and we'll hear from him
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: coming up shortly.
• 4:22
  Speaker 4: Last we spoke you.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: And I on the Air of any kind was the
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: day of the Liam Cohen press conference, introductory press conference.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: There's been a lot that's happened since that day.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: Around here as well. Sure, Liam Cohen's in. The complete
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: coaching staff is in. Tony Boselli is in, right, I mean,
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: and they're working on the GM right now.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and interviews are going on, and obviously it's very
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: important that they get the right fit. From a couple standpoints. One,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: you want to have somebody that's going to work well
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: with everybody that's already in place, which is the most
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: important thing to art with. But then the reality is
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: is that the lifeblood of any franchise is the talent
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: that's coming in and you've got to have the guy
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: that can pick the horses. You know, not trying to
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: be demeanium by saying players or horses, but you've got
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: to be able to bring in great athletes and great
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: football players because that's what you have to have to win.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: And I think Howie Roseman might be the general manager
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: of the National Football League right now. Year in and
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: year out, he's been able to add talent to the
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: roster in Philadelphia. Many people consider them the most talented
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: roster in all of football. And you've got to have
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: somebody that's going to come in here that can give
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: you starter in round one, really good player as well
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: starting round two, starting round three, contributor in round four,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: and then you know, it becomes kind of a mix.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Even though it's still a mixed percentage wise in the
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: early rounds. But when's the last time that this organization
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: has been able to get starter starter starter in rounds one, two,
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: and three. It hasn't happened. And that's you look at
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: some of the great historic teams in the National Football
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: League and typically what coincides with that is great historic drafts.
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, And you know what he goes. All he has
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: to do is go to Athens. Like most of the
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: guys on defense came from Georgia for the Eagles.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean it wouldn't hurt, right, I mean, I mean, well,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, look at the great college programs are. That's
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: where the hot bet is at. I mean, that's where
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: the talent is at. So if you want to get
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: good football players, go where some of the best college
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: football's played. I mean it's not just Georgia, Ohio State,
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: but you're you're right along Sai, Georgia, Ohio State, LSU,
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Penn State. Some of these teams that are competing year
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: in and year out. Obviously they've got good football players. Alabama,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: you know, are they still there? By the way, with
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: Nick saban.
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: Go not, They're out, They're out of it.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: Oh, but just look, that's going to be important for
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: this organization to get the right fit and to get
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: somebody that can do a great job of managing the roster,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: of bringing talent and building talent for the coaching staff,
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: and building talent around the roster that you already have.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: And having Boselli in place as the executive vice president
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: of Football Operations, that means pretty much everything except the
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: personnel and the coaching anything football or later outside of
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: that is under Boselli's umbrella.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Well, and I think he'll have a little bit of
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: input in some of that stuff. I would think. I mean,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: you know, when you have a working relationship and Tony
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: knows football, you know, And I've said this before, I'm
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: excited about Tony's presence and the job that he's going
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: to do. And I'm excited for him. I'm excited for
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: the organization. I'm excited for me because I think he's
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: going to have an impact, you know, because not to
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: go back down that road, but you know, this organization
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: made a big mistake when they hired urban Meyer, and
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: the dynamic of the organization changed dramatically. When urban Meyer
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: was hired, there became this this abyss that existed between
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: the business side of the Jaguars and the football side
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: a divide, and football was kind of given their own
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: I guess you could say, put this way, they didn't
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: work together. And in a market like Jacksonville, you have
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: to have everybody working together, the business side of things,
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: the football side of things. Everybody's got to be rolling
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: in the same direction. And that era of urban Meyer
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: created separation. And I think Tony will help bridge that
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: gap to get everybody working together again. And I think
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: that's important because if you're not working together, then you're
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: not being the most efficient organization that you possibly can be.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: And so I'm excited for what's ahead. I'm excited for Tony.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: I'm excited for the organization, and I think the fan
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: base should be excited as well, because I think they'll
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: do a great job.
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: The Jags have hired a new head coach. The twenty
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: twenty five opponents are set and season group in Sweet
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: Ticket deposits are now available. Be the first in line
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: select your seats for next season. Place your deposits today
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: at Jaguars dot com, slash tickets or cold nine oh
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: four six three three two thousand. It's Jaguars Happy Hour.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: We're on ten ten XL, Jaguars dot Com and Jaguars YouTube.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: The Jaguars coordinators all spoke with the media today, all
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: three of them. Let's start on offense with Grant Yudenski,
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: the offensive coordinator, twenty nine years of age, coaching a
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: quarterback in Trevor Lawrence that's not far away from his age.
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: The physical talent you can see, and you guys probably
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: have had more time watching it than even me over
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: the course the past couple of years. The most exciting
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: thing for me is the guy and the person as
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: I've started to form this relationship, because, like I said,
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: the quarterback position is still played by a person. It's
• 10:10
  Speaker 5: still a human being back there who's got to stand
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: back there and navigate tight pockets and hits and escape
• 10:17
  Speaker 5: and deal with eleven, you know, ten other guys in
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: the huddle, all eleven on defense and make those decisions
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: in snap judgment. So the person that we're getting to
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: deal with and work with on a day to day
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: basis is super exciting for me because listen, if we're
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: up here spending as much time as we do trying
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: to pour ourselves into somebody he's the type of guy
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: that you want to invest time in.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: That's r.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: Denski, who spoke with the media today the full press
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: conferences at Jaguars dot com and Jaguars YouTube. You can
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: tell pretty quickly in the press conference today why he
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: has risen so quickly up the ranks of the NFL.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: Many people consider him a bright, young star and young
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: is right. How old is he?
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: Twenty nine?
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: I mean incredibly young, fast rising, And this is one
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: of the coaches that if everything goes as planned, you're
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: probably not going to have him for very long. And look,
• 11:08
  Speaker 2: that's okay. That means you're having success if all of
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: a sudden you're losing coaches. But what he was able
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: to do in Minnesota was Sam Donald, I think is tremendous.
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: I mean, holy cal Sam Darnold had a career year,
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: and I think Yudinsky had a big part of that.
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: And what is Sam Donald going to make money wise
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: this year now? I mean he's probably going to get
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: an opportunity to be a legit starting quarterback in this league.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: And I think prior to last year, many people viewed
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: him as a journeyman backup, as a guy that you know,
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: you Okay, you might do a good job in a pinch,
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: but you didn't expect him to be the starting quarterback
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: for the whole rest of the season. And he did
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: a great job. And so you know, kudos to Yudinsky
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: and glad to have him here and glad to have
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: I looked, the more the more great minds that you
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: can have on offense, the better off you're going to be.
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: And so I don't care if they're twenty nine, thirty nine,
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: forty nine, fifty nine, sixty nine. Hell Tom Moore, what
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: was he eighty? Give me all the bright minds that
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: you can get. Yeah, you know you need to get.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: And here's the most important thing. When Seat Khan introduced
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Liam Cone as the head coach, he talked about how
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: it was imperative that the whole Trevor Lawrence thing was
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: in alignment with the views of the new head coach,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: and Yudinsky's got to be a big part of that.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: He's offensive coordinator. He's going to be working closely with
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: with Trevor as well as you've got a quarterbacks coach
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: that's going to be there as well. I mean, everybody's
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: got to be working in the same direction and getting
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: this offense to be as productive as it possibly can be,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: and getting the best and brightest coaching staff is obviously imperative.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: But then now you need to start adding the players
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: to that. That's where we're at with this whole GM search.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: So it's a puzzle, and the puzzle all fits together.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Of course you didn't. You will be involved in designing
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: the offense. Liam Cohen will call the place he announced
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: that Durgan. By the way, why was it such a
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: big deal? In a mystery last year as to who was.
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: Such a huge I remember having a conversation with Doug
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: Peterson and I was like, you know, I said, I
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: don't understand the mystery. I don't. I mean, if you
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: just answer the question, people will stop asking, it won't
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: be a big deal anymore. And for whatever reason he
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: chose to keep it this big secret anyway I did.
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: I didn't get it.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: It almost felt like he had fun like listening to it.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: Which was strange.
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: Exactly, it creates a conversation that doesn't need to exist,
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: and what you're saying, distraction falls into that category if
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: it's a conversation that doesn't need to exist, and the
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: other part of that. I mean, are you not giving
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: any love or credit to your offensive coordinator, Press Taylor
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: that's actually calling the plays? How does that make him feel?
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: When you don't want to answer the question, what are
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: you scared to tell people that the press is calling
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: the plays? By the way?
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: I first thing, I might have a little bit of
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: a beef. The first thing that happened. Ben Jonson gets
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: hired in Chicago, hires Press Taylor.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, of course, okay, yeah, Look, I like Press
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: will be fine. I like Press. Good luck to him.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: I wish him nothing but the best.
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: You know how this goes, Like you know, how his
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: league goes, he'll sometimes at some point become a coordinator again,
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: and probably if they have success, he'll have a chance
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: to interview and be a head coach in the league.
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: That's just how it's going to go.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: That's how the league works, how it goes. Success leads
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: to opportunities. Pact simple.
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: We're back in a moment. We'll get to defense. Anthony Campanelli,
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: defensive coordinator speaking today as well. We'll hear from he's
• 14:58
  Speaker 3: farwell in a little bit, the special team coordinator, kept
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: on the staff and more on the GM interviews and
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: a possible timetable for completion of those run ten to Nexcel,
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: Jaguars dot Com, Jaguars YouTube, and this is Jaguars Happy
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: Hour presented by dream Finders Homes.
• 15:26
  Speaker 6: My vision for us defensively, We're wanna be a tough, fast, physical,
• 15:32
  Speaker 6: violent at the point of attack team. What does that mean?
• 15:36
  Speaker 7: All right?
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: That means that you got guys who take pride and
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: not getting blocked. Everybody talks about running to the ball.
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: I don't think there's another person in the world who
• 15:45
  Speaker 6: believes in running to the ball more than I do.
• 15:49
  Speaker 6: But you can't run to the ball if you don't
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: get all the blocks. And that is something that's gonna
• 15:55
  Speaker 6: be celebrated in our room. It's gonna be celebrated in
• 15:58
  Speaker 6: the culture of our team. You know, there's gonna be
• 16:00
  Speaker 6: a point. There's a point in every play where somebody.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: Tries to block you.
• 16:04
  Speaker 6: Right, your passion to not stay blocked is really what
• 16:09
  Speaker 6: makes plays on defense.
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: Welcome back at Jaguars Happy Hour and Jack's Football is
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: presented by Fresh from Florida It's Always in Season, JP Shadwick.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: With Jeff Logoman. That was Anthony Campadelli.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: The Jaguars defensive coordinator speaking with the media today and
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: coordinator day. We heard from Yudinsky earlier the OC we're
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: here from Farwell coming up the special teams coordinator. But boy,
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: the defensive side of the ball, there's plenty to discuss
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: here on this side. With the way things finished up
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: statistically last year. The staff has blown out, and we
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: are with Campadelli coming in and a different kind of attitude.
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: You heard some of it there, and a passion for.
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: Not getting blocked or not staying blocked at least getting
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: off blocks and running to the ball and be aggressive.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: Let's go.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: You know, coming off of what was arguably the worst
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: defensive performance in franchise history.
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: It's top two, I.
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: Know, if it's not number one, it's right there with
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: that twenty was that twenty twenty season?
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Twenty twenty? Yeah, And and here's the reality. The twenty
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: twenty season that you're referring to, the defense was completely
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: void of talent. This defense from last year was not
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: void of talent, right, one of the worst coaching jobs
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: that I've ever seen from a defensive coordinator staff. Not good,
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: wasn't good at all. And you know, unfortunately it was
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: a it was a poor decision there, and uh, you know,
• 17:44
  Speaker 2: and that's one of the reasons why you had you
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: had to kind of make a big change there. And
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: I like Campanelli. I mean everything that I've seen on him,
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: he seems to have a great mindset. It's a defense
• 17:56
  Speaker 2: is not complicated. It's running, it's hit, it's hackling. Its
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: effort and I've been on some defenses to where effort
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: makes up for a lot of talent shortcomings. And when
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: you watch the Green Bay Packers play defense, extremely disciplined,
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: extremely well coached, did not leave any holes. And I
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: think that's the key, is that you've got to give
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: yourself the best chance to possibly succeed by being in
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: the right position. And then the last year that was
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: like the anti definition of what the Jaguars were. Mental mistakes,
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: blown coverages, explosive plays time. It was downright terrible, brutal,
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: it was it was hard to watch. And I think
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Campanelli will help bring a disciplined, aware approach to this
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: defense and it's much needed.
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: You've seen his the videos from his earlier stops when
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: he was in front of the team, from times there's
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: to Miami.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: A little salty salty language.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah I did see that, So he'll grab some attention
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: in the room.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah that's fine, it's fine. And then you know, the
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: reality is that I think the best coaches, number one,
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: give the players the tools to be better, because all
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: players want to be coached. It's not like players think
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: they've got it all figured out. If you if you
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: can show a player that you can help them be better,
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: then that coach immediately has respect because if a player
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: gets better, it helps everything down the line for the player.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: It helps his contract situation, he gets to get more money,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: more fame, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, on down the line. And
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: so if you can find a coach that's a great
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: motive that's going to help the players and be better,
• 19:45
  Speaker 2: then look, take care of them. And then last year,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: I don't know what the heck that was last year,
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: it was disappointing.
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: Though.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: Campanelli's a linebacker by trade when he was a player,
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: went to Rutgers and then, so that means he's always
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: has onlinebackers as a coach as well. When he was
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: up and coming, he's been a linebackers coach. He's the
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: coordinator now, but that also to me it's like, what's
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: going to happen with Devin Lloyd. How can he get
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: the best out of that type of player. There's been
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: such a mystery around what he's doing at times.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Well, I think that that's going to be one of
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: the probably one of the first things that they will
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: look at, is you know, because last year Foyer Lucan
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: was changed out of the position that he had been
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: excelling at for years.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: He was coming off the field. Remember they were rotating
• 20:33
  Speaker 3: guys in the world that was.
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: About and uh and and Devin. I think he's got
• 20:40
  Speaker 2: a great skill set and he's got an amazing talent
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: for making plays, but he's just got to clean up,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: you know, the mental things. I mean, that's the part
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: that's got got to get better. And that was kind
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: of the calling card of Green Bay. And so if
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: you're going to play I think in Campanell defense, you've
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: got to be able to be assignment clean and that's
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: got to get cleaned up. And there are some questions
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: and obviously a lot of that's going to be dictated
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: on what you do in the off season to add
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: to that as well. But you know, I always like
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: it when linebackers coaches get to the point where they
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: become coordinators because some position groups don't float up front
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: and back end. So in other words, like defensive back coaches,
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: it's all about it's about coverage and then they work
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: their way forward. And then with defensive line coaches, it
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: kind of starts upfront and then it works its way back.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: With linebackers, it kind of it starts both ways because
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: they're coaching linebackers that have to be schemed because of
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: what's happening upfront, and then also what's happening back in
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: the back end. A lot of times a secondary coach
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: doesn't care what a defensive front is doing as long
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: as they work with the linebackers, but a lot of
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: times they're not working with what's going on up front.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: So I think the combination of experience he says a
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: linebacker coach, and and also it wasn't like he was
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: just a position coach. He was I think a run
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: game coordinator in Green Bay. So there's also a little
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: bit more responsibility entailed with that.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: Interesting to see how this defense improves and what it
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: looks like, what it feels like.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: Let's get rid of the whole hockey shifts thing. Okay,
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: everybody's gonna play, and you know, come on, there's a
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: reason why JP that some guys in football make a
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: lot of money, and there's a reason why some guys don't.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: We don't have a depth chart, yet there's there's always
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: a chart.
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: Come on.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: In fact, I never really got that whole thing.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: Let's take one of our better players and not have
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: him on the field and see if that gets this.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: Better for aluk but played what was that game was
• 22:53
  Speaker 2: in New Orleans? And he played like ninety snacks. Okay,
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: never had a snap to where he looked like he
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: was tired.
• 23:00
  Speaker 4: He never came off the field in like his whole career.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: Has literally has some of the best wind that I've
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: ever seen a football. Is incredible. We're going to take
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: him out for fifteen twenty snaps a game just because
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: we want to rotate guys. Last time I checked, he's like,
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: he's your best linebacker and best Mike linebacker too. By
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: the way, let's change him the will. We're going to
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: reinvent the wheel. So what are we doing? Ill not
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: doing that anymore? I don't, I don't know. Hopefully we'll
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: get all that fixed.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: He's a fun conversation half.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: So we had an interview last I guess that was
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: earlier in the week on Jaguars dot Com Campanelly, just
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: some ideas of how he operates and how he goes
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: about it. And we talked about red sauce places in town,
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: big Italian food fan, the whole thing. Oh yeah, he's
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: he's a Jersey guy, right, Yeah, a Jersey.
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: Guy throw through. I mean tell that.
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: And uh yeah, their family is a massive high school
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: coaching family in Jersey.
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: They've been through it forever.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: He needs to go to ends us.
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: See you're already putting commercials out there. Well, I'm just saying,
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying, let's come back in a moment. Special
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: Teams one of the holdovers from last year's staff.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: And for good reason too, to hold them.
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: Indeed, and for.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: Good reason, we'll hear from Heath Farwell, the Special Teams coordinator,
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: when we come back to to Nexcel, Jaguars dot Com,
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: Jaguars YouTube.
• 24:37
  Speaker 4: This is Jaguars Happy Hour.
• 24:53
  Speaker 7: Great energy, I mean that's what you're gonna see.
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 24:56
  Speaker 7: You know, when you ever you talk to him, it's
• 24:58
  Speaker 7: always good energy. You know, he's young, energetic, and he's
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: gonna tell you how he feels, which I think is
• 25:04
  Speaker 7: a great quality. I mean, uh, you know him and
• 25:07
  Speaker 7: I have hit it off, you know, you know really well.
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: And the staff he's brought together, great energy, young young guys, uh,
• 25:15
  Speaker 7: and some of the cool stuff to camaraderie. I think,
• 25:17
  Speaker 7: stuff that we're gonna do of getting together for some dinners,
• 25:20
  Speaker 7: you know, at the combine and some of those things.
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: That's really what's gonna bring the staff together. That's what
• 25:25
  Speaker 7: it's gonna take. It's gonna take bringing all this staff
• 25:28
  Speaker 7: together from different places, getting him ready to go.
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: The player is gonna show.
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: Up and and in in in in no time at all,
• 25:36
  Speaker 7: So we got to get all on the same page.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: He's Farwell, the Jaguars Special Teams coordinator hold over from
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: last year. Welcome Back Jaguars Happy Hour with the Hundai Studios,
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: the Miller Electric Center, JP Shadwick with Jeff Logoman on
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: Tintin XL, Jaguars dot Com and Jaguars YouTube. Far Well
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: forty three years of age, and that's a little bit
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: about a half year higher than the mean of.
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: The average agent. I'm just saying.
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: But Farwell's been around here since twenty twenty two. He'll
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: stay on as well his assistant Luke Thompson. So the
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: special teams groups, I was one bright spot for this Jaguars.
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: Team last season by far, and good decision to keep
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: both Heath and Luke on board. Look special teams, I
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: thought was a real bright spot for this football team.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Pro Bowl punter, pro Bowl long snapper, and you have
• 26:35
  Speaker 2: a Pro Bowl caliber rookie kicker. And if you watch
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: the way that your rookie kick kicker handled all the
• 26:45
  Speaker 2: moments this year, highly impressed, highly impressed. And that I
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: think also is due to getting great coaching consistent. The
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: return game needs to be a little bit better, but
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: I think some of that has to do with a
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: little personnel. I'm excited that they kept both of those
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: eyes on because when you got good coaches, don't let
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: them walk away. The coverage groups are always pretty consistently solid, right,
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, never really let anything.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: Big break loose on them.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: No, and very consistent, you know, And I think that's
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: that's not easy with special teams, you know, week in
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: and week out because a lot of times injuries change.
• 27:19
  Speaker 2: You know, lot a lot of people don't think about this,
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: but when you know, with the Jaguars when and the
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: amount of injuries that they've had. When you have injuries
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: to starters, that impacts special teams across the board because
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: now you've got to backup going into play defense. A
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: lot of times you got to find a replacement to
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: run on special teams. In some cases you still the
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: guy just basically gets extra reps. But I think they've
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: done a great job of managing the special teams and
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: managing the roster. And I've never had a player say
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: a bad thing about the special teams coaches here, with
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Heath and Luke Thompson highly respected coaches.
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: He said today, you know there's kind of that window
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: right after the season where okay, am I staying and
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: then I go in you know, there's.
• 28:05
  Speaker 4: They haven't hired a coach yet.
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: Sure, he said today, Hey, the Cons, you got a family,
• 28:09
  Speaker 3: we want you around and the ideas that we're going
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: to have you back around here. And then it worked
• 28:14
  Speaker 3: out that way once Liam Cohen was hired as the
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: head coach. I mean like the next day they announced
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: that Farwell was extended.
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't look. I'm sure there was a lot
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: of anxiety there, because you know, when you're a coach,
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: you know, and you get a new head coach coming
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: in and you're under contract, you don't know until you
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: get the word that you're coming back, and you know,
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: you got family and kids that are always involved, and
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: that's not easy to deal with. Unfortunately. That's the one
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: drawback to coaching. I think that's sometimes tough to be
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: able to handle. You know. But credit Liam con for
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: keeping a good football coach and not just going you know, hey,
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: I just want to clean everybody out, just to clean
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: everybody out, you know, because a lot of times if
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: you do that, you end up missing out and keeping
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: a really good coach.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: If things, it's one least thing to worry about.
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and uh and and look uh how they managed
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: the Logan Cook has gotten better. I mean has he not?
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: I mean Logan Cook. We we've known for a number
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: of years that we thought that he was a Pro
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Bowl caliber punter. He's had his best years under Heath
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: and Luke and so credit to him. And heck, you
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: get a young rookie kicker to come in, and I
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: think the one thing it's hard to do is when
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: you have a rookie kicker's one is trusting him. But
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: and empowering him and keeping him confident. Did you ever
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: think for a minute that there was ever a situation
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: there was any type of wavering about sending the rookie
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: kicker out there, Not one time, No nothing fazed, no
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: hesitation whatsoever. And I think a lot of that is
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: is allowing the player to thrive and to grow and
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: to groom him along the way, and coaching is a
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: big part of that.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: So congratulations to the special teams coaches. Farwell and Thompson
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: are back on the Jaguars staff.
• 30:05
  Speaker 4: Moving ahead.
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: You know some of the other assistants we haven't gotten to.
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: We talked and heard about the coordinators here, but on
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: the offensive side football. He heard from Yudnsky today, the
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: offensive coordinator. You mentioned, those coaches around the quarterback, there's
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: a lot of them. Spencer Whipple will be the quarterbacks coach.
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: Shane Waldron will be the pass game coordinator. Waldron was
• 30:25
  Speaker 3: in Chicago, Whipple was in Arizona the last few years.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: Edgar Bennett is back in Jacksonville. Yeah, wide receivers coach
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: now for the Jaguars. Sean Seratt, the O line coach,
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: was a teammate at Cohen's back in College at UMass.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: We met him just just long a little earlier. Today,
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: Chad Morton's a running backs coach. Richard Angulo sticks around
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: as the title.
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: Another coach that's done a great job and was kept
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: from the previous staff. Just one other thing I wanted
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: to mention here because I thought it was very There
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: was a moment there when Heath was talking about how
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: they had these design dinners and everything to kind of
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: kind of hit the ground running to get to know
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: each other, to get on the same page as the staff.
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: When's the last time you heard anything like that? Did
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: you ever hear of anything like that? I don't know,
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: I didn't, you know, And I mean that that's good.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: I mean part of forming a staff and being a
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: cohesive unit as a staff is getting to know the
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: people that you're working with and to be able to
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: spend time together, to meld together as quickly as possible.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, that's part of it. I mean, JP, we
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: do similar type things. We go out and we have
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: a lunch or we have a dinner, you know, because
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: we worked together. And I didn't hear of previous staffs
• 31:50
  Speaker 2: doing that. It's kind of odd.
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, usually you'll get the bill sometimes I'm just saying,
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: I mean, you want to be a good teammate, pick
• 32:01
  Speaker 3: up the bill.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: Now we're talking.
• 32:02
  Speaker 2: Well, I just think it's I think it's a it's
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: a great thing that what Heath mentioned there, And it
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: kind of kind of went at first when I heard that,
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: I'm like, that's interesting to me because you know, you've
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: I've never heard that mentioned. And with the previous staffs. Oh,
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: you gotta remember too, they're little late in the game.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: I mean, is February thirteenth, and they're just in. Look,
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: you got plenty of time.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: But free agency is coming up in a month, the
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: combines next week, so you gotta figure out all that
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: in the next.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: Month, and then you're going to the draft. And by
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: the way, you got to find a general manager.
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right, that's on the plate too, right, so and
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: whatever he decides after the draft to do is staff
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: and scouting.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: And you do have an interim general manager right now.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: So I mean, I think some of that stuff is
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: still moving ahead, and you know so, but I think
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: with the whole general manager thing, you want to get
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: that done as fast as possible.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: And by the way, the players show up two weeks earlier,
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: now because the new coaching staff seventh prest season program began, correct,
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: so you better have some things in place before they
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: show up. They'll have it in place, they'll be ready
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: to go, but you still got to go through the
• 33:08
  Speaker 3: meetings and the process to do it.
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: It takes work. Even if the combine.
• 33:11
  Speaker 3: I bet they're not gonna waste many hours when they're
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: not doing player interviews, just going and hanging out.
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: Having a cold bud Light, cold bud Light. You know,
• 33:19
  Speaker 2: I'm not a big fan of bud Light, but they
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: I think that there's gonna be not much time wasted.
• 33:25
  Speaker 2: Not a big beer guy, JP, No, No, not a
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: big beer guy. Sometimes.
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, But my point is there's gonna be a lot
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: of work getting done.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with working and having a cold beer though.
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: That's true, you know, I mean, that's kind of like
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: having dinner. Hey, let's get a little work done here.
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: Let's have a beer now. Don't get crazy or anything.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: You know, you don't have any issues popping up, right,
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: you know, you don't want to make pro football talk
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: headline or anything like that for the wrong reasons. Correct, Okay,
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: but but no, I love them run and there is
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: a lot of work to be done. And uh, how
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: many general manager interviews have they done so far?
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: I think there's I's about ten four or five six. Yeah,
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: there's a it's a long list of guys. I would
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: I could see this wrapping up next week. I mean,
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: they can move through this thing fairly quickly the coming days.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you hope, and then uh, you know. Then then
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: I think also once you get the new general manager,
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: then you go through the draft process, and then you
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: have tweaks to the personnel department, you know, everybody that's
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: going to be underneath the general manager. Uh and look, uh,
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: let me say this, the the interim general manager, Ethan Wah,
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: which by the way, I've got a high level of
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: respect for him. I think he's very good, and he's
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: in the mix and and very very talented, and a
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: lot of people have a high level of respect for
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: Ethan Wah. So you know, the Jaguars are in good
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: hands right now, but you want to make sure that
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: everybody is, you know, in the same direction once the
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: decision is made. But for the time being, Ethan Waugh
• 35:10
  Speaker 2: is a very good person for the job.
• 35:13
  Speaker 4: Let's come back.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: We will wrap things up in our first show back
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: after the hiatus of the off season.

  Speaker 2: on a great show.
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: She's Canadian, you know that.
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: I did not know that. Yes, huh.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: I think she's from like Calgary or something, which is
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: like a country music oddly enough, a country music and
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: a rodeo hotbed.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: You know. It's kind of kind of funny, you know what.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: I didn't know this. So me and the wife we
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: had we had taken a vacation trip and we were
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: down in the Caribbean on an island called Saint Lucia.
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: I've heard of it.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: Do you know the most popular music in Saint Lucia?
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: It's country music? How does that happen? Doesn't she own
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: an island down there too? Who she does?
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: Would owns an island? I think owns the island? I think,
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: come on, come on for real.
• 39:02
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not making that up.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: But we had one night at the place where a
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: restaurant we were at, they had this guy that was
• 39:10
  Speaker 2: singing all of these popular country music hits and I
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: was like, get out of town. New York. You know,
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: you kind of expect to go to maybe like an
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: island like that and they're reggae or you know, stuff
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: like that. But it was country music. And one of
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: the guys that we talked to on the island said
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: that years ago they were exposed to country music and
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: it just stuck. It was awesome. I was, I don't
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: want to say shocked, but I was wildly entertained by
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: the uh in this guy that we heard singing that night,
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: he had a little what do they have that? A
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: little boxing that they can play and then they're singing
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: along with the other music. He was crushing it, crushing it.
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: It was awesome. I didn't have a.
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: Whole lot of drinks yet, but it wasn't like I
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: was feeling really good in burn No, no, no, no,
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: he was great.
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: Uh.
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: Tickets at dailiesplace dot com and if we're tickets and
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: show information all the whole schedule there as well coming up.
• 40:13
  Speaker 4: So all right, do you have interviews?
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: Are winding down?
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: It feels like, and then two weeks away from the combine.
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: That's what's next in the docket for the Jaguars. The
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: official dates of the combine, So we're traveling to cover
• 40:26
  Speaker 3: on Monday Monday next week fourth then we'll be on
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: radio road TEK after last week and February and then
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: the testing Mondays, I believe, like Thursday or Friday, So
• 40:38
  Speaker 3: all the media stuff is usually wrapped up through Thursday Fridays,
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: everybody's get out of there out and then yeah, because
• 40:47
  Speaker 3: they're usually coaches in GMS or Tuesday at Wednesday at
• 40:49
  Speaker 3: the podium, and then all of a sudden the prospects
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: come in by position a couple of days before they test,
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: so that that whole scene is blown up certainly over
• 40:59
  Speaker 3: the last decade, but it's a scene now, and it's
• 41:02
  Speaker 3: in the Convention Center across the street from the stadium.
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: Will be over a thousand credentialed media for this wow
• 41:07
  Speaker 3: as always, and we'll be right there in the.
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: Middle of it.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: It's become musty TV. I mean literally, I mean years
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: ago it was just like a medical check and there
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: was nobody there. There was no press for the most part.
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: And now it's a it's a big deal, it's a
• 41:26
  Speaker 2: it's become another media attraction. How everybody what's there? Forty
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: times are how many times they bench press, how they
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: test and the other place that is it's kind of
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: like a job fare of sorts because there's a lot
• 41:39
  Speaker 2: of people that are there that are trying to make
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: connections with that may need a job or are you
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: looking for potential opportunities.
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: Well, like everybody in the entire NFL is an Indianapolis
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: at or not. And by the way, Indianapolis is arguably
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: the best city in the US for something like that.
• 42:01
  Speaker 4: They've got to not move that they can't.
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean they've talked about it, but I mean
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: JP centrally located perfect. It's a convention center that's comparable
• 42:11
  Speaker 2: maybe to maybe one or two other markets in the
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: in the US.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: The hospitals right downtown that does all the exactly stuff
• 42:20
  Speaker 3: and the most important thing is to save on travel
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: and for everybody to have the ease of getting there
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: in the location of Indianapolis or you know, is awesome,
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: just like FedEx is in Tennessee, you know, Okay, based
• 42:36
  Speaker 3: out of Memphis, Memphis, not Nashville Memphis away, right you
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: see that movie? Yes, And so I mean being centrally located,
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: it makes it convenient to get all of the prospects in. However,
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: many there are a little over a thousand I think, right.
• 42:50
  Speaker 4: So that would be like three hundred prospects.
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: Okay, I don't know, three three and change. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: I heard Deon Sanders one son did not get invited.
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: What's what, Shiloh Shiloh, Yeah, I heard he did not
• 43:03
  Speaker 2: get an invite to the combine.
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: If Dion's gonna have something to say about probably he
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: says something to say about most everything, that's for sure. Oh,
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: but it'll be a first combine for Liam Cohen as
• 43:17
  Speaker 3: the head coach. The new GM will be there as well,
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: Miss Alli.
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: The whole thing you would expect, right, I mean, yeah,
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: you would expect all that to be in place and
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: for them to be kind of banding together, working together
• 43:29
  Speaker 2: because everything is going to be new from the structure standpoint.
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: But yeah, coach, general Manager, EVP, they've all got their
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: hands full as far as getting everything going in the
• 43:42
  Speaker 2: right direction.
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: We're gonna have another one of these shows next Thursday
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: going on, but we'll be doing it again and hopefully
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: we'll be talking about.
• 43:50
  Speaker 4: A GM by then.
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: Well I hope, so, you know, and uh, you know,
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: and hopefully by then we know we've had an opportunity
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: to meet even more coaches.
• 43:56
  Speaker 3: We met some of them today. Yeah, full disclosure. We're
• 44:00
  Speaker 3: obviously in the middle of Electric Center, down a hallway
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: from where the coaching and the personnel offices are. It's
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: a little bit away, but the photo room is right
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: across the hallway from us.
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: Well, when you say the photo room, it's it's a
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: room where the coaches are getting their head shots taken. Right,
• 44:19
  Speaker 2: so they don a Jaguar shirt, you know, because all
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: the pictures that you've seen up until now are photo
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: shopped to have Jaguar jerseys on them. So now they're
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: taking actual pictures of them with Jaguar logo to peril.
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: So we had the door open of the studio. These
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: guys are like right across the hall.
• 44:39
  Speaker 2: Pop. That's pretty cool. Yeah, it was good to see it,
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: have to meet some of them, Yeah, so looking forward
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: to that and hopefully as the off season progresses we
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: might maybe have one or on occasionally. He's that would
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: be great on the program. Yeah, talk some ball talk,
• 44:53
  Speaker 2: some ball talk, some ball talk, some philosophy on football,
• 44:57
  Speaker 2: so where they've been, get to know some of these
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: co choose. I think that would be a great thing.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: A lot of you mass connections that's I mean, look
• 45:04
  Speaker 2: at the minute, man, I think and a lot of
• 45:07
  Speaker 2: people some people may look at that and say, oh,
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: he's just hiring his You know, look, when you're when
• 45:13
  Speaker 2: you're putting together a staff, I think as a head coach,
• 45:16
  Speaker 2: you want to have people that one that you know,
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: that you can trust and that you have a have
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: had a good working relationship with before. And the more
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: experienced that you have with somebody that you put on
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: your staff, the faster that you can be together going
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: forward as one. And so I think that's that's very wise.
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: I remember talking to a head coach years ago, and
• 45:45
  Speaker 2: I'll keep him unnamed, but he actually talked about talk
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: about explain why he actually well, the reason I'm going
• 45:56
  Speaker 2: to keep him Nameles is because he made some comments
• 45:58
  Speaker 2: he said. You know, I asked him, I said, what happened?
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: You know when you had your opportunity to be a
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: head coach? He goes, the first mistake I made was
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: trusting somebody that I didn't know, and I don't need
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: to reveal who was, but he said that he said
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: that cost him dearly. He said, I was thinking that
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: it would be very beneficial by getting this person that
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: might have had some more experience. When I had a
• 46:23
  Speaker 2: guy that I knew, that I trusted that didn't have
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: the experience, but I didn't hire him, and I trusted
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: a guy that in the end I shouldn't have trusted.
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: And so having people around you that you trust, that
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: you know, I think is imperative and I think that's good.
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: That's good. It's good, smart and smart move by Liam Collen.
• 46:43
  Speaker 4: Is this a former Jaguars coach?
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: I will not say. Why not? Come on, JP, I've
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: been around the league for a long time. No coaches
• 46:51
  Speaker 2: here have known coaches elsewhere, So I'm asking you know.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: And by the way, a couple of things I wanted
• 46:58
  Speaker 2: to mention this week. One on a sad note, the
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: passing of Dickjaron, who was the former defensive coordinator of
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: the Jaguars in the early years. He's one of the
• 47:07
  Speaker 2: finest men I've ever known. Stand up guy. Uh literally,
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: if you ever want to write a biography as far
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: as how upstanding of a person that Dick Guron was,
• 47:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, he is the class of the class. The
• 47:27
  Speaker 2: other thing, too, is that they're in this coaching cycle.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: Very excited for Pete Carroll, who was my former coach
• 47:34
  Speaker 2: when I was in New York, and I'm excited that
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: he's got another opportunity at the age of seventy three,
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: you know, because there's I don't think there's anybody in
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: this business that literally has more energy than Pete. And
• 47:48
  Speaker 2: I'm happy for him. And he's got his hands fulls
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: hands full.
• 47:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you think.
• 47:54
  Speaker 2: Building that program in Vegas, that's for sure. But if
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: there's anybody that can do it in a positive, energy
• 48:00
  Speaker 2: filled way, I think Pete Carroll was a good choice.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: There pack of gum hates to see him coming, that's
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: for sure. But Dick John that was a great staff.
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: You know, we had Dick Gerron was the first defensive
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: coordinator in Jaguar's history. Defensive coordinator, you know, John Peaves
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: was a defensive line coach and Dick Drohn worked very
• 48:17
  Speaker 2: closely with the secondary fine coach, Fine Man, also former
• 48:22
  Speaker 2: head coach of Buffalo and in Chicago. Just a fine man.
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: Seventy four years of it. Too young, Yeah, yeah, too young.
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: It's that big fan of his man, big fan hisn't
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: and never was a time that when you didn't see him.
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: After he went on to become a head coach, elsewhere.
• 48:41
  Speaker 2: There never was a moment that he didn't take the
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: time to come and say hi, and how are you doing,
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: how's the family? You know, how's your life? You know?
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: You good? You need anything? One of those guys that
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: truly cared about the player as a person more than
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: he cared about the player as a as a player
• 49:03
  Speaker 2: as a performer, And I think that really rang true
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: with a lot of guys.
• 49:08
  Speaker 3: Last coached in the league in twenty twelve as the
• 49:10
  Speaker 3: defensive coordinator of the Browns, but after the Jags in
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: ninety eight was his last year. Here was the Bears
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: head coach from ninety nine to three, then the Lions
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: or defensive coordinator four to five, interim head coach and
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: five went to the Bills as the head coach six seven, eight, nine,
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: Eagles as a senior assistant in twenty ten, and then
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: the Browns for a couple of years before his career ended.
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: Good Man all over the league. Yah, good Man, what
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: do you got coming up?
• 49:37
  Speaker 3: Well, we got let's see Jaguars business. We've all talked
• 49:41
  Speaker 3: about the one thing that starts for me at this
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: time of year now, JP is now that the Super.
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: Bowl is over, you turn to the draft a little bit,
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: and for me, it's watching some of the top quarterback prospects,
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: even though the Jaguars are not directly interested in that position.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: When you have a quarter billion dollars invested in Trevor Lawrence.
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: You looked at Twitter today that some might argue, Yeah,
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, what was that all?
• 50:08
  Speaker 4: It was silly stupid.
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: So and obviously, with the Jaguars picking fifth overall, the
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: quarterback position will impact what's available to the Jaguars at
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: number five in a big way. So my month, I
• 50:23
  Speaker 2: start watching film. I watched the quarterbacks first. You want
• 50:25
  Speaker 2: you want to watch all the top you know, players
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: at that position, anybody that could be a potential first
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: round pick is worth watching. And then we'll work on
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: the other positions after that. Sounds like a plan. We'll
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: catch up with you again next week. Logs, thank you
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: got it, Jeff Logan, JP Shaddick. Thanks to Joe Fortunado,
• 50:43
