0:03
Speaker 1: This is Jaguars Happy Former Jaguar Jeff Logman and JP
0:08
Speaker 1: Shadrick provide the latest Jaguars news and what's happening around
0:12
Speaker 1: the NFL. JA begins right now. Welcommand Jaguars Happy Hour
0:18
Speaker 1: on this Thursday. JP Shadrick with you, Jeff Logman alongside,
0:24
Speaker 1: and Urban Watch one continues. What a day it's been
0:28
Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. Urban Meyer is in town, he is in
0:32
Speaker 1: the stadium. The negotiations continue. Nothing official from the Jacksonville
0:36
Speaker 1: Jaguars as of yet, but when it happens, we will
0:39
Speaker 1: let you know and bring it to you live right
0:42
Speaker 1: here on Jaguars Happy Hour. And yes, obviously one of
0:47
Speaker 1: the great college football coaches of all times. Three national
0:50
Speaker 1: championships two different schools only. Nick Saban is the other
0:54
Speaker 1: coach to have won national titles at different schools since
0:58
Speaker 1: the A People started the ninete He's six. There are
1:00
Speaker 1: only three others before that as well. It hasn't happened
1:03
Speaker 1: a lot. Uh. The third old time winning is coached
1:06
Speaker 1: by a percentage in major college football history. He's been
1:10
Speaker 1: a winner everywhere he's been. Let's see if he can
1:12
Speaker 1: bring it to the NFL. If this gets done today,
1:15
Speaker 1: I think what's impressive is that he's the third all
1:18
Speaker 1: time winning his percentage wise, but look at the different
1:20
Speaker 1: programs that he's been at. UM. This is not a
1:24
Speaker 1: coach that, Okay gets his first job at Ohio State
1:28
Speaker 1: and then just takes a perennial winner and just keeps
1:30
Speaker 1: the train rolling along and has an unbelievable winning percentage.
1:34
Speaker 1: I mean, you're talking about a guy who was a
1:36
Speaker 1: Bowling Green and UH, to be honest with you, JP
1:39
Speaker 1: Or growing up as a kid, I didn't even know
1:41
Speaker 1: that Bowling Green had a football program. Okay, So so
1:44
Speaker 1: he wins there, and then he goes to Utah, which, look,
1:47
Speaker 1: Utah is not a powerhouse. Utah is considered for the
1:51
Speaker 1: most part, an afterthought, and UH wins a lot there.
1:55
Speaker 1: Then goes to Florida. Okay, won a lot of football games.
1:58
Speaker 1: We're trying to get them back and to being a contender,
2:01
Speaker 1: and he does to national championships, goes on to Ohio State,
2:05
Speaker 1: wins a national championship there, get that program back to
2:08
Speaker 1: being one of the most prominent programs and all of
2:10
Speaker 1: college football, and that success is still carried on today
2:13
Speaker 1: with a very good football coach at Ohio States, so
2:17
Speaker 1: very impressive track record that he has. And there's no
2:20
Speaker 1: question that when you're talking about hiring somebody as a
2:23
Speaker 1: head coach, and I don't care if it's if it's
2:25
Speaker 1: a pro game or semi pro or college. You want
2:28
Speaker 1: somebody that's a leader. And if you can find somebody
2:31
Speaker 1: that has proven that they are a strong leader and
2:34
Speaker 1: that they've had success before, it gives you a much
2:37
Speaker 1: better chance of having success at the pro level. And so, uh,
2:42
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be exciting if if it in
2:44
Speaker 1: fact happens. We anticipate that it may, but if it
2:47
Speaker 1: if it doesn't, it doesn't, But if it does, it
2:49
Speaker 1: it will be exciting. As we said on a previous
2:51
Speaker 1: show here in Jacksonville just a few moments ago, if
2:54
Speaker 1: there's this much water under the bridge and they're this
2:56
Speaker 1: close to the finish line and it doesn't get done,
2:58
Speaker 1: and that's that would be a shocked everyone. Let's put
3:01
Speaker 1: it that way. Yeah, it would be. I mean, look, uh,
3:04
Speaker 1: we don't have anybody telling us, no, it's not gonna
3:07
Speaker 1: get done. I mean it's uh uh And not that
3:10
Speaker 1: we have had any input that way either way. But
3:14
Speaker 1: I think it's exciting and it's exciting the prospect that
3:17
Speaker 1: it could happen. And I think it's gonna be an
3:20
Speaker 1: instant conversation piece when you talk about when teams are
3:23
Speaker 1: starting to talk about teams around the National Football League.
3:26
Speaker 1: But you know the conversation will will be that way
3:28
Speaker 1: because it is in fact Urban Meyer. But then it
3:32
Speaker 1: becomes that once the season begins, okay, then you have
3:34
Speaker 1: to win to be able to have that conversation to
3:36
Speaker 1: continue and uh. And so that that's part of the deal.
3:40
Speaker 1: And that's just the way it is in coaching, and
3:42
Speaker 1: and it doesn't matter who you are. I mean, ask
3:44
Speaker 1: Nick Saban when he was with the Miami Dolphins and
3:46
Speaker 1: he didn't have great success, but Nick Saban is a
3:48
Speaker 1: great coach. You put Nick Saban back with a pro
3:51
Speaker 1: team and he's got good players. Nick Sam's gonna win
3:53
Speaker 1: because he's a proven winner and he's a proven leader.
3:56
Speaker 1: But you've got to have the combination of good coaching,
3:59
Speaker 1: good port, and good players to have great success at
4:02
Speaker 1: the National Football League level. So we are awaiting the
4:06
Speaker 1: official word and nothing yet has come down, but it
4:08
Speaker 1: would be the sixth old time full time head coach
4:12
Speaker 1: for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and it would be a big one,
4:16
Speaker 1: a big splash when this thing gets done, hopefully today,
4:20
Speaker 1: and it would change really that the face of the organization.
4:24
Speaker 1: It's really a blank slate. And for urban Meyer, think
4:26
Speaker 1: about since his days at Florida, that was really the
4:29
Speaker 1: first big gig he got. He got the Utah gig
4:32
Speaker 1: they want a couple of years, and then he got
4:34
Speaker 1: the Florida opportunity. Blew that one out of the water.
4:38
Speaker 1: Was fantastic. Their two national championships, took some time away
4:41
Speaker 1: for health reasons, and then basically got to pick his
4:45
Speaker 1: next spot. And his next spot was really his dream
4:48
Speaker 1: job in college Ohio State finished there with some health
4:52
Speaker 1: issues as well, and it felt like, okay, at this
4:55
Speaker 1: point he can pick and choose where he wants to go.
4:58
Speaker 1: So it feels like he has picked and shows in
5:00
Speaker 1: Jacksonville because of the clean slate opportunity and something like
5:04
Speaker 1: this where you can really make your mark and make
5:06
Speaker 1: it in in your imprint doesn't happen in the league
5:10
Speaker 1: all the time. Log so this is an opportunity. I
5:12
Speaker 1: think it's probably perfect for Irban Meyer. Well, I mean, look,
5:15
Speaker 1: if if you want to have kind of your your
5:19
Speaker 1: fingerprints all over everything. I mean, this is gonna be it.
5:21
Speaker 1: And I think that it looks if you're someone coming
5:26
Speaker 1: in of the stature of urban Meyer, you're probably gonna
5:29
Speaker 1: have a lot more input. And I know that Sean
5:33
Speaker 1: com when he talked about his press conference. You know,
5:35
Speaker 1: you'd like to be able to hire your general manager
5:38
Speaker 1: and your head coach simultaneously. Both will report to him.
5:42
Speaker 1: You know if if if urban Meyer is hired, I
5:45
Speaker 1: would feel like that urban Meyer has a little bit
5:48
Speaker 1: more input then maybe the general manager in certain aspects.
5:53
Speaker 1: And I don't know that. I mean that's obviously something
5:55
Speaker 1: that once the deal gets signed and shot con talks,
5:59
Speaker 1: I mean, will that in fact be the case? Is
6:01
Speaker 1: and is the negotiation processes that all incompassing talking about
6:06
Speaker 1: you know, how far the reach, how much input, how
6:09
Speaker 1: much change can the coach have in all areas of
6:12
Speaker 1: the organization. You know, there's been talking about facilities upgrades.
6:16
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that that's a lot of conversation and
6:19
Speaker 1: and I'm sure that before you have a coach that
6:22
Speaker 1: feels very comfortable in retirement and doing a TV job
6:25
Speaker 1: comes back and and comes back to being employed as
6:29
Speaker 1: a head coach. He wants to make sure that all
6:31
Speaker 1: of the conditions are right for him, and that's what
6:34
Speaker 1: you get when you're one of the most in demand
6:37
Speaker 1: coaches that there is out there. So I'm sure that
6:40
Speaker 1: Urban Meyer has a lot of sway when it comes
6:42
Speaker 1: to some of that stuff. JP, So we're waiting. The
6:44
Speaker 1: official world will give it to you when we get it.
6:47
Speaker 1: If it comes down today in the next fifty minutes
6:49
Speaker 1: or so, we'll take our first time out and come
6:52
Speaker 1: back with more, including some quarterback talk. This is Jaguars

Speaker 1: Welcome back to Jaguars Happy Hour. Here's your host and
9:44
Speaker 1: welcome back, Yes, Jaguars Happy Hour. J P. Shadrick with
9:48
Speaker 1: Jeff Flagaman. Urban Watch continues Nothing has been officially announced
9:52
Speaker 1: by the organization, but by all the reporting everybody's seen today,
9:56
Speaker 1: he's in the building. Negotiations continue and it feels like
9:59
Speaker 1: the near the goal line here to punch this thing
10:02
Speaker 1: in the end zone lives, which would be a huge
10:05
Speaker 1: get for the Jacksonville Jaguars and the start of what
10:07
Speaker 1: will be an absolutely fun off season around this organization.
10:12
Speaker 1: And it has been a while since we could say
10:15
Speaker 1: there is hope around here. Well, I think also JP,
10:19
Speaker 1: the one thing that that we're we're talking about is
10:23
Speaker 1: establishing a new culture with a new coach. And then also,
10:26
Speaker 1: things aren't normal still. You know, we still have a
10:30
Speaker 1: global pandemic, even though we have vaccinations starting to reach
10:35
Speaker 1: the population. But what what would the establishment of a
10:39
Speaker 1: new culture look like with urban Meyer with some conditions
10:43
Speaker 1: that are still somewhat challenging, and still I would imagine
10:47
Speaker 1: throughout the course of one will still not be back
10:50
Speaker 1: to normal as they've been in years past. And so
10:52
Speaker 1: I think that creates another challenge somewhat certainly, and a
10:56
Speaker 1: big challenge at that for a new coach to come
10:58
Speaker 1: in and in to do things the way that he
11:01
Speaker 1: wants to do, to new look to learn new systems
11:04
Speaker 1: and new ways of doing things. So, uh, this is
11:08
Speaker 1: a pretty big undertaking. But the nice thing about it
11:10
Speaker 1: is is that you're doing it with somebody who's been
11:12
Speaker 1: there and done that. He's established culture cultures at different places,
11:16
Speaker 1: even though it's been at the collegiate level, and it
11:19
Speaker 1: is different when it comes to the professional level, but
11:22
Speaker 1: at the same token, it's still football, and I think
11:26
Speaker 1: the big difference is that some of the dynamics that
11:29
Speaker 1: you're dealing with when it comes to the players. So
11:32
Speaker 1: I think that will be a little bit of a
11:33
Speaker 1: learning curve, but it would be a learning curve for anybody.
11:36
Speaker 1: Norton Myers a smart guy. Now, I mean, make no
11:38
Speaker 1: mistake about it. He's a smart guy. He's adapted everywhere
11:40
Speaker 1: he's been and he's been very successful wherever he has been.
11:43
Speaker 1: And if he gets the players at any place that
11:46
Speaker 1: he chooses to go to, if he if the ink
11:48
Speaker 1: drives here, he will be successful here as long as
11:50
Speaker 1: he has the players. You know, we were talking earlier
11:53
Speaker 1: to Tony Vaselli on a previous program here in Jacksonville,
11:56
Speaker 1: and you know, the the idea that he had is
12:01
Speaker 1: instant credibility. I think you brought it up. Actually, logs
12:03
Speaker 1: instant credibility when he walks in front of the room
12:05
Speaker 1: because of his track record of success at the college level,
12:08
Speaker 1: and most of the players that are on the team
12:10
Speaker 1: went through college when he was still, of course coaching
12:12
Speaker 1: in college winning national championships. How long does that last though,
12:17
Speaker 1: for a new coachbility in front of a team, it's
12:21
Speaker 1: had to go earn the rest of it. Well, it's
12:22
Speaker 1: a great question. And and and actually had a conversation
12:25
Speaker 1: about that with Mike Vrabel, not specific Dervin Meyer obviously,
12:29
Speaker 1: but it was a couple of years ago. And uh
12:32
Speaker 1: and also had that conversation with another former teammate of
12:36
Speaker 1: mine who became a head coach in the National Football League.
12:39
Speaker 1: And I'll keep him nameless right now. Somebody can probably
12:41
Speaker 1: figure it out, but he said, look, the moment you
12:43
Speaker 1: stop in front of the team, if they know that
12:45
Speaker 1: you played the game, it is credibility. But after the
12:49
Speaker 1: first couple of times that you get up in front
12:51
Speaker 1: of him, that credibility starts to wane if if they
12:54
Speaker 1: figure out that you're not helping them get better, or
12:57
Speaker 1: you're not helping them be a good football team or
12:59
Speaker 1: helping them be a good football player. You know, the
13:02
Speaker 1: the ensuing respect or the ensuing attention that you gather
13:08
Speaker 1: then becomes on your on your capabilities as a coach
13:11
Speaker 1: and so. Uh but definitely gets the attention right out
13:15
Speaker 1: of the gate, and that helps things as well. It
13:17
Speaker 1: certainly gets the attention to everybody following the football team
13:20
Speaker 1: outside the building, that's for sure. It is one of
13:23
Speaker 1: the biggest headlines in sports today. And it certainly will
13:26
Speaker 1: be whenever he speaks for the first time, if this
13:28
Speaker 1: thing gets done today or tomorrow, or whenever it happens,
13:32
Speaker 1: whatever he takes the microphone for the first time, that
13:34
Speaker 1: will be a banner moment for the Jacksonville Jaguars well certainly.
13:37
Speaker 1: And uh, Shot Khan has never done things that seem
13:41
Speaker 1: to have been small. Uh he ish his fingerprints are
13:46
Speaker 1: all over this and and he's always believed in doing
13:50
Speaker 1: things big. I mean, look at the video board. I mean,
13:52
Speaker 1: that's the biggest in the world to now, you know,
13:54
Speaker 1: potentially hiring arguably the modern day greatest college foot all
14:00
Speaker 1: coach ever him and Nick Saban So, I mean, that's
14:03
Speaker 1: a that's a big deal. And and to be able
14:05
Speaker 1: to I don't want to say, coax him out of retirement,
14:08
Speaker 1: because I don't know if that was necessarily the case.
14:10
Speaker 1: Maybe uh, it was a mutual type situation. But to
14:13
Speaker 1: be able to to get him to take the job
14:17
Speaker 1: and to be able to coach at the professional level
14:20
Speaker 1: when for all intensive purposes, many thought that he was
14:23
Speaker 1: essentially done with coaching and he was happy and doing
14:26
Speaker 1: the broadcasting and that it made his health better and
14:28
Speaker 1: made him happy. But that may change things. And look,
14:32
Speaker 1: I guess it's a good fit. I mean, because that's
14:35
Speaker 1: what it has to be. It has to be a
14:36
Speaker 1: good fit for all parties involved for somebody to take
14:39
Speaker 1: a position like this, because it's a very demanding position
14:42
Speaker 1: and it's one that's that that you can't do halfway.
14:46
Speaker 1: It requires all of your attention and all of your commitment.
14:49
Speaker 1: And that's one of the reasons why that people and
14:52
Speaker 1: some of the coaches that do this, that they become stressed.
14:55
Speaker 1: And it's hard on him because it does take a lot.
14:57
Speaker 1: It takes a lot of individual strength and also takes
15:00
Speaker 1: a lot of of of time and energy away from
15:03
Speaker 1: family as well. So I think it's gonna be exciting
15:06
Speaker 1: if it happens. I'm interested to hear when the spark
15:10
Speaker 1: of this started, Like you know Mr Khan said the
15:13
Speaker 1: other day and his press availability that you know that
15:16
Speaker 1: he's known Urban for a while and the Big Ten circles.
15:19
Speaker 1: Khan families involved heavily at Illinois, we all know that.
15:23
Speaker 1: And Urban has been at Ohio State for a number
15:25
Speaker 1: of years so or involved in the Big Ten network,
15:27
Speaker 1: Big Ten Network, Fox Sports, the whole deal. It's all combined.
15:30
Speaker 1: So there they know each other. I'm sure there was
15:33
Speaker 1: probably an event or a place that they were together
15:37
Speaker 1: in a room and a football discussion might have started
15:41
Speaker 1: that spark somehow. I'm curious if they can pinpoint when
15:44
Speaker 1: that might have begun. Yeah, you know, sometimes those things
15:48
Speaker 1: have a Tennessee to just to go untalked about, because, uh,
15:54
Speaker 1: I think one one thing that people don't want to
15:57
Speaker 1: give the impression and I don't think this is the case,
15:59
Speaker 1: but look, you don't want to give the impression that
16:01
Speaker 1: all these other people that you interviewed weren't legitimate Canada's
16:03
Speaker 1: because I think they were. But sometimes when you talk
16:07
Speaker 1: to different people, sometimes the the guy that's standing right
16:11
Speaker 1: in front of you sometimes it's the best candidate, but
16:13
Speaker 1: you just don't never get to the point where you
16:15
Speaker 1: have that conversation and so um so, I think it's
16:19
Speaker 1: certainly exciting, is it's certainly intriguing, and it's it provides
16:22
Speaker 1: a lot of curiosity, certainly for people that would like
16:24
Speaker 1: to know the dynamics jp A, including you. I mean,
16:28
Speaker 1: we'd all like to know the dynamics and be the
16:29
Speaker 1: little the little spider on the wall to be able
16:32
Speaker 1: to hear all these conversations. But we're not priving to
16:34
Speaker 1: all that. And at the end of the day, all
16:36
Speaker 1: that matters is that this journey is gonna appears to
16:40
Speaker 1: gonna end with are being the next coach of the Jaguars.
16:42

19:24
Speaker 1: your host. Welcome back Jaguars Happy Hour. J P. Shadrick,
19:30
Speaker 1: Jeff Lagavan, Urban Meyer Watch continues, will bring you anything
19:33
Speaker 1: official when it comes down, and it feels like it
19:36
Speaker 1: could come down really at any minute. That's the field.
19:41
Speaker 1: He's been in the town today, he's been in the
19:42
Speaker 1: stadium for a while. The negotiations continuing and it feels
19:46
Speaker 1: like we're nearing the goal line of getting Urban Meyer
19:50
Speaker 1: as the next Jaguars head coach. When it is official,
19:52
Speaker 1: we will bring it your way, logs Um. You know,
19:56
Speaker 1: obviously we've discussed some of the accolades he's had in college.
20:00
Speaker 1: The third most winning is when for the third most
20:03
Speaker 1: winning head coach by percentage in college football major college
20:06
Speaker 1: football history. But he's one of only two coaches to
20:10
Speaker 1: win multiple national titles at different schools Saban and Meyer
20:15
Speaker 1: in the modern era. But then you gotta go way
20:17
Speaker 1: back to when they didn't even award a national champion.
20:20
Speaker 1: They've had to go back later and and you know
20:23
Speaker 1: team's claim national titles from the twenties and the teens.
20:26
Speaker 1: Howard Jones in Yale at nineteen o nine won a title,
20:31
Speaker 1: and then in usc won four national titles in the twenties.
20:34
Speaker 1: That's one Pop Warner pit nineteen sixteen and eighteen, and
20:38
Speaker 1: then a third with Stanford in nineteen six and then
20:42
Speaker 1: Fritz Chrysler of Princeton in thirty three and thirty five
20:45
Speaker 1: one there and then one in Michigan in ninety seven.
20:49
Speaker 1: So there's only five guys that have done this all time.
20:51
Speaker 1: Even if you count the really old ones. Yeah, I
20:54
Speaker 1: mean it's uh, it's incredibly rare. It's certainly is uh
20:58
Speaker 1: when you when you start to go back to that.
21:00
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta remember, going all the way back
21:02
Speaker 1: to national championships, most of that was all vote, you know,
21:05
Speaker 1: so you didn't have the college football playoffs, and and
21:07
Speaker 1: irban Meyer was able to do it. I think both ways,
21:11
Speaker 1: I mean and so um impressive. And I think the
21:14
Speaker 1: one thing that I think has always impressed me about
21:17
Speaker 1: irban Meyer is just his ability to to I don't
21:21
Speaker 1: want to say will teams to win, because it takes
21:23
Speaker 1: more than just will to be able to have football
21:25
Speaker 1: teams to win. But the way that he has adapted
21:28
Speaker 1: at every different program, and when you looked at some
21:31
Speaker 1: of the personnel that he's had, and that's one of
21:34
Speaker 1: the games of the national football leagues that you have
21:36
Speaker 1: to be willing to adapt to the personnel that you have.
21:38
Speaker 1: If you have a certain player that is good at
21:41
Speaker 1: doing a, you can't expect him to do be And
21:43
Speaker 1: as a coach, one of the jobs of being a
21:45
Speaker 1: great coach is making sure that a player that does
21:47
Speaker 1: great with with a is that you let him do
21:50
Speaker 1: it and you find a way that he can do
21:51
Speaker 1: a and so I think that's always been impressive to
21:55
Speaker 1: me about Urban Meyer. And so you know, if he
21:57
Speaker 1: has a quarterback that can do certain things the best way,
22:01
Speaker 1: that I expect him to allow that quarterback to do
22:04
Speaker 1: things the best way. So and I'm looking forward to
22:08
Speaker 1: seeing a little a little Clemson, Ohio State, Florida kind
22:15
Speaker 1: of mixture here JP, because that's kind of what let
22:17
Speaker 1: me add Bowling Green to that. Don't forget Utah. I mean, look,
22:23
Speaker 1: it's it's exciting and and I can tell you this
22:27
Speaker 1: JP two because if this isn't the ink gets dry,
22:32
Speaker 1: then the conversation will still continue about urban Meyer. But
22:36
Speaker 1: then a lot of the conversation then starts to continue
22:39
Speaker 1: about Urban but then it also starts to the first
22:42
Speaker 1: question he's probably gonna be asked as press conference is
22:45
Speaker 1: gonna be or one of the first question is gonna
22:47
Speaker 1: who's gonna be your quarterback? Right? I mean it's not
22:51
Speaker 1: a natural question. So huh, that's gonna be interesting because
22:55
Speaker 1: he obviously has a recent association with the House State
22:58
Speaker 1: and fields a quarterback there had an incredibly successful game
23:02
Speaker 1: and against Clemson, and and Trevor Lawrence didn't have quite
23:07
Speaker 1: as good of a game. So will that conversation and
23:09
Speaker 1: question be at Absolutely, But I think it's a certain
23:12
Speaker 1: level of intrigue, there is no doubt about it. Speaking
23:15
Speaker 1: at quarterbacks, we have gone through the track record of
23:19
Speaker 1: his quarterbacks in his past, and what's his what's just
23:22
Speaker 1: out of curiosity, because I mean you've got you got
23:25
Speaker 1: the his information up there. What's the worst record he's
23:29
Speaker 1: ever had as a coach? I mean that's because I mean,
23:35
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that he's gonna have the worst record
23:37
Speaker 1: ever his first year as a coach. I'm just saying
23:39
Speaker 1: is that, Look, when you're building a program, there are
23:41
Speaker 1: bumps in the road, and there are gonna be things
23:43
Speaker 1: that you have to eventually overcome. And I'm sure he
23:46
Speaker 1: had to overcome these in college. What was his worst right,
23:49
Speaker 1: So in two thousand and one, his first year at
23:51
Speaker 1: Bowling Green, they were eight and three. They were nine
23:54
Speaker 1: and three the next year tenn into a Utah twelve
23:57
Speaker 1: and oh nine and three is first year at Florida,
24:00
Speaker 1: and then a bunch of double digit win seasons nine
24:02
Speaker 1: and four and oh seven there eight and five and
24:05
Speaker 1: twenty ten is last year at Florida was probably his worst.
24:09
Speaker 1: That was the most losses he has was eight and
24:10
Speaker 1: five and twenty ten is last year at Florida. They
24:14
Speaker 1: won They won the Outback Bowl to get to eight
24:17
Speaker 1: So seven and five regular season, okay, I mean so
24:20
Speaker 1: I mean still winning record. I mean, that's amazing to me.
24:22
Speaker 1: The first year he's ever head coach at Bowling Green
24:24
Speaker 1: he was eight three and what was Bowling Green the
24:28
Speaker 1: year before? I mean, you probably have to break it up,
24:30
Speaker 1: but I mean it'd be a great question and to
24:32
Speaker 1: know because I mean, obviously we show the direct impact
24:35
Speaker 1: that irbra Meyer had on the program. To be able
24:37
Speaker 1: to walk into the door in the first year ever
24:40
Speaker 1: as the coach at Bowling Green to roll out eight
24:42
Speaker 1: and three and then year two go to nine and three,
24:44
Speaker 1: that's impressive. They were two and nine and two. I
24:49
Speaker 1: mean that right there, That right there tells me, I mean,
24:53
Speaker 1: how important a coach is because a lot of people,
24:56
Speaker 1: and I've said this in the past, that the college
24:58
Speaker 1: game of the program is very different because of the
25:01
Speaker 1: ability to recruit players and it there's no question that
25:05
Speaker 1: if that's an advantage at the collegiate level, because look
25:08
Speaker 1: look at the number of pro prospects that at the
25:10
Speaker 1: top programs Ohio State, Clemson, and Alabama are all churning
25:14
Speaker 1: out year after year after year, and who are the
25:17
Speaker 1: top three programs that year and a year out are
25:19
Speaker 1: in the national championship conversations named those three programs. But
25:23
Speaker 1: to go to Bowling Green and to go from what
25:27
Speaker 1: to and nine to eight and three? I mean, okay,
25:31
Speaker 1: did he did he get all of a sudden these
25:33
Speaker 1: duco transfers at Bowling Green? I don't think that's I mean,
25:37
Speaker 1: can you do that at Bowling Green? I don't think
25:40
Speaker 1: you can. I mean that that's impressive to me. If
25:44
Speaker 1: you wanted to evaluate the greatest year and maybe the
25:48
Speaker 1: greatest impact of of Urban Meyer and coaching, I would
25:52
Speaker 1: look at that. You're right there. To take a program
25:55
Speaker 1: like Bowling Green to go from two and nine to
25:58
Speaker 1: eight and three with him being the difference, that's incredible,
26:03
Speaker 1: and then obviously continue to do it on the biggest
26:06
Speaker 1: of stages later in your career is a lot of pressure.
26:08
Speaker 1: When you perform at the places like that and finally
26:10
Speaker 1: get the big jobs, you're gonna go perform at the
26:13
Speaker 1: big jobs, and well, just it just goes to show
26:15
Speaker 1: you we talked about it. You know, there's a lot
26:17
Speaker 1: of sayings Jimmy's and Joe's and the xes and the
26:20
Speaker 1: oh's okay, and then you also have the saying that
26:23
Speaker 1: coaching matters. Well, you know what, if you want to
26:26
Speaker 1: know or understand how coaching can matter, look at that.
26:29
Speaker 1: Look at those two years at Bowling Green before urban
26:32
Speaker 1: Meyer and then with Irving Meyer in ought to tell
26:35
Speaker 1: you that coaching does matter. But then you could probably
26:38
Speaker 1: say the same type of thing and look at some
26:39
Speaker 1: of the other years and look at the players that
26:41
Speaker 1: he had in different years at Florida and to compare
26:45
Speaker 1: the success or maybe the year that wasn't as good
26:47
Speaker 1: when they went eight and five and they had to
26:49
Speaker 1: get that eighth win in a bowl game, to maybe
26:52
Speaker 1: compare some of the talent that you had with the
26:54
Speaker 1: higher win seasons compared to that. I mean, it's look it,
26:58
Speaker 1: Jimmy's and Joe's matter, and coaching matters to it. All matters.
27:01
Speaker 1: And that's that's the thing about is that you have
27:04
Speaker 1: to have all these pieces in place to be able
27:06
Speaker 1: to have the greatest chance of success. Let's come back.
27:09
Speaker 1: Plenty of quarterback talk, plenty of Urban Meyer talk, as
27:12
Speaker 1: the weight continues. He's around, the negotiations are continuing. It
27:17
Speaker 1: feels like they're inside the five and we will bring
27:19
Speaker 1: it to you live if it happened to the next
27:22
Speaker 1: half hour. This is Jaguars Happy Hour on the Jaguars

Speaker 1: Happy Hour. Here's your host, G P. Shadrick. Welcome back.
29:44
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour continues. JP Shadrick, Jeff Lagavan. Still awaiting
29:48
Speaker 1: the Urban Meyer news. He's in the building. Negotiations continue
29:52
Speaker 1: and if it breaks in the next thirty minutes, we'll
29:55
Speaker 1: bring it to your live right here on Jaguars Happy Hour.
29:58
Speaker 1: JP Shadrick, Jeff Lagoman. And it's been a fun filled
30:01
Speaker 1: day already, following the social media stories and photographs of
30:07
Speaker 1: him getting off the plane and then the video. There
30:10
Speaker 1: where cameras staked out outside the stadium of the car
30:13
Speaker 1: arriving to the garage at the the loading bay doors.
30:17
Speaker 1: So they had it all, they had the whole, they
30:19
Speaker 1: had it all. And I walked in the other side.
30:21
Speaker 1: There's cameras out there, but he was He didn't walk
30:24
Speaker 1: in the front door, and I think they took him
30:26
Speaker 1: in some back games. Yes, that's right, to try to
30:28
Speaker 1: avoid all that they work on a day like today,
30:31
Speaker 1: and it's hard to avoid all that. Anyway, we will
30:34
Speaker 1: keep you posted on what happens. It feels like it's
30:38
Speaker 1: very very close to being a done deal, and if
30:40
Speaker 1: it does happen in the next thirty minutes, we'll bring
30:42
Speaker 1: it to you. So we we touched on quarterbacks and
30:46
Speaker 1: obviously his history with quarterbacks. You go back one thing.
30:50
Speaker 1: We haven't talked about his potential compensation. I mean, I
30:53
Speaker 1: mean that's there's as well. Because you know, when we
30:58
Speaker 1: hear or the the reports are that the negotiations are
31:02
Speaker 1: still ongoing. A lot of people might think, Okay, it's
31:04
Speaker 1: about the money, and and I'm sure that that has
31:08
Speaker 1: been part of it. I don't think that that that's
31:11
Speaker 1: part of the conversation once you get down to the
31:14
Speaker 1: to the finer details. I think that the parameters of
31:16
Speaker 1: compensation are one of the first things you talk about,
31:20
Speaker 1: just to see if the interest is gonna be sustained.
31:23
Speaker 1: But if you if you if you had to guess
31:25
Speaker 1: as far as compensation for a coach of of Urban
31:30
Speaker 1: Meyer statue, I mean you you have to. I mean,
31:32
Speaker 1: I'm guessing somewhere in the eight million plus ballpark and
31:35
Speaker 1: eight millions, probably being a little bit conservative low. But
31:39
Speaker 1: I mean, if you compare what Matt rule Good and
31:42
Speaker 1: Carolina what some of the top collegiate coaches are getting
31:45
Speaker 1: at the collegiate level, which is essentially what Urban Meyer
31:49
Speaker 1: had been making at Ohio State. I don't know what
31:51
Speaker 1: he made at Florida, but I mean that's what it
31:54
Speaker 1: cost you for a top college guys around seven to
31:58
Speaker 1: eight million. But okay, now you're talking about one of
32:01
Speaker 1: the top three of all time winning percentage and to
32:04
Speaker 1: make the move to the pro game. I mean, my
32:07
Speaker 1: thinking is it's probably got to be a little bit
32:09
Speaker 1: even higher than that. So could it be in the ten,
32:12
Speaker 1: could it be in the twelve. I don't know that
32:15
Speaker 1: the top paid coach in the National Football League. Everybody
32:19
Speaker 1: thinks that it's Bill Belichick, but nobody knows for sure.
32:22
Speaker 1: Because nobody knows for sure exactly what that number is.
32:25
Speaker 1: Are reports that are in the range of twenty million
32:28
Speaker 1: per year? Is that possible? Look, if if you have
32:35
Speaker 1: a player on your roster that is worth fifteen million
32:40
Speaker 1: a year, why would a coach that is gonna change
32:44
Speaker 1: the culture and established winning for you or potentially established
32:50
Speaker 1: winning for you? Because nothing's for sure, but I mean,
32:53
Speaker 1: isn't that worth fifteen million? Absolutely? Absolutely? I mean how
32:59
Speaker 1: many mistakes as this organization made with some high price
33:03
Speaker 1: free agents that didn't pan out and and you lost
33:06
Speaker 1: millions on no production. I mean, and I'm not saying
33:10
Speaker 1: that that was unique to this organization. That's that happens
33:13
Speaker 1: with every National Football League team occasionally, and so that's
33:18
Speaker 1: just the cost of doing business sometimes. But if you
33:21
Speaker 1: can get one of the best coaches that there is,
33:24
Speaker 1: and if you have to pay him more than so
33:26
Speaker 1: be it. But I mean, if I had to guess JP,
33:28
Speaker 1: I'm thinking ten to ten, ten to twelve fifteen million
33:33
Speaker 1: bucks a year or something like that out there Earlier
33:36
Speaker 1: was twelve and then there were reports, so it's not
33:38
Speaker 1: that high. We may not really know, but his last
33:42
Speaker 1: salary at Ohio State was seven point six million dollars.
33:45
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's I mean, you have to at
33:49
Speaker 1: least be higher than that. I mean, I'm thinking, like, like,
33:53
Speaker 1: like I said, you gotta be at least getting ten, right,
33:56
Speaker 1: John Gruden's getting ten, Crudens ten. Don't know what Pete
34:00
Speaker 1: Carroll is where he's at, but uh yeah, I mean
34:05
Speaker 1: I'm I'm thinking that, Look, it's gonna be near the
34:07
Speaker 1: top of the league. And I mean you're you're talking
34:08
Speaker 1: about and and if if he has the power, and
34:12
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's going to have the power
34:14
Speaker 1: to do everything personnel wise or anything of that nature,
34:18
Speaker 1: because you want to allow personnel people to do what
34:21
Speaker 1: they do best. And and just because you were a
34:23
Speaker 1: great college coach doesn't mean that you're a great personnel
34:26
Speaker 1: guy at the NFL level. So you you hire qualified
34:29
Speaker 1: personnel people to be able to do that. So but
34:32
Speaker 1: I mean you certainly if you're if you're hiring a
34:34
Speaker 1: coach of that magnitude, then then his reach is a
34:37
Speaker 1: little bit farther, I think, and and input is a
34:40
Speaker 1: little bit farther than most. So and with that input
34:43
Speaker 1: and that reach comes a paycheck. It's gonna be a
34:47
Speaker 1: little bit more than most and a little bit higher
34:50
Speaker 1: and reach a little farther than most. Now to clarify also,
34:54
Speaker 1: I mean folks who are around the team and follow
34:56
Speaker 1: it all the time understand it. But the normal fan
34:59
Speaker 1: who's really kind of tuning in maybe for the first
35:01
Speaker 1: time in a while today, Uh, that has nothing to
35:04
Speaker 1: do with salary cap It's totally different. It's whatever basically
35:08
Speaker 1: the owner wants to spend all you want. And David Tepper,
35:12
Speaker 1: the owner of the Carolina Panthers, was has quietly been
35:15
Speaker 1: criticized by other owners in the National Football League because
35:18
Speaker 1: he kind of broke the scale, so to speak, on
35:22
Speaker 1: hiring a coach with Matt rule and paid him an
35:27
Speaker 1: immense amount of money to be the head coach of
35:29
Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers. But the reality is that if you're
35:31
Speaker 1: gonna if you're gonna hire qualified people, don't you want
35:34
Speaker 1: to get the best or what's viewed as the best.
35:36
Speaker 1: And so sometimes you look at if you want to
35:38
Speaker 1: get the best, you gotta pay for the best. And
35:40
Speaker 1: Herbert Meyer is clearly one of the best coaches that
35:42
Speaker 1: there is in football. And I don't want to say
35:44
Speaker 1: one of the best coaches in in pro football because
35:47
Speaker 1: that hasn't yet to be established. But if you just
35:48
Speaker 1: want to say one of the best coaches in football period,
35:51
Speaker 1: I mean Urban Myers right there at the top of
35:52
Speaker 1: the list. And and I know if I'm an owner
35:56
Speaker 1: of a football team, and I'm not jp trust me,
35:58
Speaker 1: I'm not really okay, But if I were, I would
36:01
Speaker 1: feel a lot of comfort knowing that I have a
36:05
Speaker 1: proven commodity, even though it's not at the level of
36:09
Speaker 1: the NFL. But I would feel better about having a
36:11
Speaker 1: proven commodity that this coach that I'm hiring has one
36:16
Speaker 1: versus John Smith, the hot offensive coordinator for the uh
36:22
Speaker 1: Alabama Dragons in the NFL. You know, just to use
36:25
Speaker 1: a hypothetical football team and a hypothetical name, I would
36:30
Speaker 1: feel a lot more comfort and knowing that I have
36:32
Speaker 1: a coach that has one and one big at the
36:35
Speaker 1: collegiate level. And that little stat that we talked about
36:38
Speaker 1: taking Bowling Green from two and nine to eight and
36:41
Speaker 1: three in the first year of er Meer's career at
36:44
Speaker 1: Bowling Green, that I mean, that kind of that makes
36:46
Speaker 1: me feel really good. Let me think about it like this.
36:48
Speaker 1: To Matt. We mentioned Matt Rule now with Carolina, he
36:51
Speaker 1: was a college head coach for seven years, seven years
36:54
Speaker 1: and forty seven and forty three record overall. Irban Myers
36:59
Speaker 1: was ahead college head coach and never had a losing
37:01
Speaker 1: record for seventeen seasons, so amazing. That kind of tells
37:05
Speaker 1: you the difference, at least track record so far. Our
37:07
Speaker 1: rule was the hot day in Canada. If you So
37:09
Speaker 1: if you're Urban, I'm I'm sitting there gonna wait a minute.
37:12
Speaker 1: Uh right, Matt rules getting X, so I should get
37:17
Speaker 1: X plus y Z, A and B. There will be
37:23
Speaker 1: lawyers and mathematicians involved. Let's say that. Let's come back
37:26
Speaker 1: in a moment. Plenty more ahead as we await the
37:29
Speaker 1: official word. Nothing official has been announced yet, but Urban

40:27
Speaker 1: there's a lot of hot candidates that that are a
40:30
Speaker 1: lot of openings in the national football Yes what six
40:33
Speaker 1: this year seven? If you know some of the candidates
40:36
Speaker 1: of Doug Peterson is going to be a candidate because
40:38
Speaker 1: he's won a Super Bowl even though he just got
40:40
Speaker 1: the boot from the Philadelphia which is amazing to think
40:43
Speaker 1: about three years ago they had the Philly Special, which
40:46
Speaker 1: is unbelievable. It's it's really it is, it really is unbelievable.
40:50
Speaker 1: Super Bowl when he coach gets gets canned. Um and
40:54
Speaker 1: and you have Author Smith offensive coordinator with Titan Eric
40:58
Speaker 1: Enemy the Kansas City Chiefs um linebacker's defensive coordinator was
41:05
Speaker 1: linebacker coach here Robert Sale. I mean, all these candidates
41:09
Speaker 1: that are viewed by some Marvin Lewis some exit out there.
41:12
Speaker 1: Jim calledwell Jason Garrett exactly. And and so if you
41:18
Speaker 1: if you look at all those candidates, how many of
41:22
Speaker 1: them are proven? Jason Garrett. You've got a track record
41:26
Speaker 1: on Jason Garrett. That's about it. You got a no
41:30
Speaker 1: track record on anybody else. We left out Raheem Morris,
41:33
Speaker 1: he was, He's got a little bit. He's got a
41:35
Speaker 1: track but small. That's about it, though. But the track
41:40
Speaker 1: record of Urban Meyer, even though it's at the collegiate level,
41:43
Speaker 1: I mean, the number speaks for itself. Is winning percentages
41:46
Speaker 1: is unmatched. And and if and you know when you
41:50
Speaker 1: talk about how he's in the top three win percentages
41:53
Speaker 1: of all time. Okay, let me ask you this. The
41:58
Speaker 1: other two coaches that are up there with him, how
42:01
Speaker 1: many programs were they at to be able to establish
42:05
Speaker 1: their winning percentage because him at Uh, basically he's baton
42:12
Speaker 1: eight fifty three. Right for using a baseball analogy, I
42:15
Speaker 1: know you like those. If he's bat in eight fifty
42:17
Speaker 1: three as a head coach and he's done it at
42:20
Speaker 1: Bowling Green, Utah, Florida, Ohio State for programs, how many
42:25
Speaker 1: other programs were the other guys in the top three?
42:28
Speaker 1: How many were they? Rockney was it Notre Dame, Notre Dame,
42:32
Speaker 1: and that's about it. And Frank Lahy was at Let's see,
42:38
Speaker 1: he was at Boston College and Notre Dame. Okay, so
42:41
Speaker 1: to Boston College for two seasons and Notre Dame after that. Okay,
42:44
Speaker 1: So essentially both of them were at Notre Dame. Back
42:47
Speaker 1: when Notre Dame was the powerhouse of college football. They
42:51
Speaker 1: were everybody went to Notre Dame and nobody else was
42:55
Speaker 1: even close to being at Notre Dame's level of talent
42:58
Speaker 1: or anything else. Rockney was one of one five twelve
43:01
Speaker 1: and five was his overall record lay. He was one
43:04
Speaker 1: of seven thirteen and nine. Let me ask you a
43:06
Speaker 1: question here, Bear Bryant. Paul Bear Bryant three three wins, Okay,
43:11
Speaker 1: but what was his win percentage? Because i mean, look,
43:15
Speaker 1: Paul bart but I'm just talking just at Alabama, because
43:18
Speaker 1: he was at Kentucky and Maryland. That's right. I want
43:21
Speaker 1: to know, just just at Alabama. What was Paul Bear
43:24
Speaker 1: Bryant's win percentage at Alabama? Two two wins at Alabama
43:30
Speaker 1: forty six losses, nine ties. That's pretty good. Yeah, I'd
43:34
Speaker 1: say that's pretty good. Urbs right there. I mean, he's
43:36
Speaker 1: above those guys. He's better. Yeah, that's it's amazing, it's oppressive.
43:41
Speaker 1: We'll see it's uh feels like it's close. We will
43:44
Speaker 1: keep you posted. We'll take another time out. Plenty of
43:46

47:14
Speaker 1: We're back Jaguar's Happy Hour rolling along J P. Shadrick,
47:17
Speaker 1: Jeff Blagman or when I watch continues nothing official, We'll
47:21
Speaker 1: keep you posted. So I gotta feeling though, Yeah, just
47:26
Speaker 1: like a watch. I mean, it's come on now, it's
47:28
Speaker 1: got to be getting pretty closed right there in front
47:31
Speaker 1: of your face, that's right. I mean, when when you
47:33
Speaker 1: have hurricanes, you have a hurricane watching a warning and
47:37
Speaker 1: then what's what's the one that means like it's coming,
47:40
Speaker 1: Get the hell out of dodges the warning, right, I
47:42
Speaker 1: would have to say this might be an urban warning,
47:44
Speaker 1: I mean, but it's not really a warning. Right, there's
47:47
Speaker 1: two the two hurricane flags are up right now for
47:50
Speaker 1: Hurricane Urban. Um. It's about to make landfall, we think
47:53
Speaker 1: in the next few minutes. It feels like, so okay,
47:56
Speaker 1: if he takes the job, signs Um, then he's got
48:00
Speaker 1: to assembol a staff. And there's all these reports of
48:02
Speaker 1: some big names that have been former coaches and college
48:06
Speaker 1: head coaches that could be involved. But that staff, the
48:09
Speaker 1: offensive defensive coordinator, special teams coordinator, those are the three
48:12
Speaker 1: big ones underneath him to really start filling that staff out. Yeah,
48:17
Speaker 1: and I think that, uh, I think a lot of coaches.
48:20
Speaker 1: One of the first quality that they look for is loyalty,
48:26
Speaker 1: because you want to hire people that you trust. And Irving,
48:30
Speaker 1: having spent a lot of time at the collegiate level,
48:32
Speaker 1: is gonna want to hire guys that he has had
48:34
Speaker 1: that have been very loyal to him and and some
48:37
Speaker 1: of those guys may or may not have experience at
48:39
Speaker 1: the NFL level, but I think that many that he's
48:43
Speaker 1: worked with have probably had experience at both coaches have
48:48
Speaker 1: essentially cross pollinated between the n c A A and
48:52
Speaker 1: and in the NFL, and that's happened, and it's been
48:55
Speaker 1: pretty frequent, So I'm sure that he's had exposure and
48:58
Speaker 1: experience with people that have had experience at the NFL level.
49:01
Speaker 1: And I think that if if he feels like that
49:03
Speaker 1: he needs to have somebody that that he doesn't know
49:08
Speaker 1: very well, but he would reach out to somebody that
49:10
Speaker 1: could maybe guide him, or that he could ask that, hey, look,
49:13
Speaker 1: you know who is the best qualified to do X?
49:16
Speaker 1: And I need somebody that has experience, then look, you
49:19
Speaker 1: go and you hire somebody that's got experienced because that's obviously, uh,
49:23
Speaker 1: it's a little bit different of a game, but it's
49:25
Speaker 1: still football. At the end of the day. And I
49:27
Speaker 1: also think that the the establishment of a lot of
49:33
Speaker 1: the coaches and then also all the support staff around it,
49:37
Speaker 1: and uh, and I'm sure that a part of the
49:40
Speaker 1: negotiating process is you know, how much input does does
49:46
Speaker 1: he have on every everybody else? And and in reality
49:50
Speaker 1: is I think it's probably a nervous time for some
49:52
Speaker 1: because you're talking about support staff like the training group
49:55
Speaker 1: and strength any of that. It could be anything, um,
49:59
Speaker 1: could be thing. I mean, that's that's the one thing
50:01
Speaker 1: I think that you know, Look, when you're trying to
50:03
Speaker 1: establish a culture, sometimes you're trying to bring in your people.
50:07
Speaker 1: So does that make certain people at risk? Sure, I
50:10
Speaker 1: mean that's that's part of uh, when you have a
50:14
Speaker 1: change in staff that sometimes things change. And so I'm
50:18
Speaker 1: sure it's a it's an unnerving time for some people
50:20
Speaker 1: that are with the organization right now and on football
50:25
Speaker 1: support staff because when when Urban comes in, I'm sure
50:28
Speaker 1: he's gonna have a vision in mind. And sometimes when
50:31
Speaker 1: you have a vision, you have to be able to
50:34
Speaker 1: have people carry your vision through. And so your comfort
50:38
Speaker 1: level with people maybe that you've worked in the past.
50:40
Speaker 1: I think we'll will certainly play a part of that
50:43
Speaker 1: or and it should play part of that. I'm sure
50:46
Speaker 1: that process has already started to figure out who he's
50:50
Speaker 1: probably been on it for a while. Well, we've we've
50:53
Speaker 1: heard many reports as far as two weeks ago that
50:56
Speaker 1: urban Meyer and I don't know the accuracy of these
50:59
Speaker 1: reports smoke so there's fire somewhere, but the reports were
51:03
Speaker 1: saying that urban Meyer was in the process of assembling
51:06
Speaker 1: the staff and was in the event that he would
51:09
Speaker 1: take the the Jaguar's job. Well, uh, that's all part
51:13
Speaker 1: of it, because if you are thinking about taking the job,
51:16
Speaker 1: you want to make sure that you're securing the best
51:18
Speaker 1: network of people to support you and the job that
51:21
Speaker 1: you're going to have and to make sure that they
51:24
Speaker 1: don't go anywhere else quickly. So um, and that would
51:28
Speaker 1: be the wise thing to do if you were considering
51:30
Speaker 1: taking the job. And the reports were exactly that. So um,
51:35
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see how quickly things happen once
51:38
Speaker 1: he gets hired, and then also what happens with the
51:41
Speaker 1: general manager position, because that's obviously that's the next big
51:47
Speaker 1: thing that that that needs to happen. And we said
51:50
Speaker 1: many times before, when you look at Hall of Fame coaches,
51:53
Speaker 1: and I'm not talking college college Hall of Fame coaches.
51:57
Speaker 1: When you look at the NFL Hall of Fame coaches,
52:00
Speaker 1: what is the one thing in common with almost all
52:04
Speaker 1: of the Hall of Fame coaches, with the exception of
52:07
Speaker 1: maybe one or two, they all have Hall of Fame quarterbacks. Yes,
52:12
Speaker 1: I mean, if you, if you, if you look at
52:14
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame and the in the exception Joe
52:17
Speaker 1: Gibbs who had multiple super winning ball winning quarterbacks, but
52:21
Speaker 1: if you look at the Hall of Fame coaches, nearly
52:23
Speaker 1: every one of them has a Hall of Fame quarterback.
52:27
Speaker 1: That's impressive and and and it's it's it tells you
52:31
Speaker 1: that you've got to have the players to be able
52:33
Speaker 1: to do it. And with the Jaguars having the first
52:37
Speaker 1: overall pick in the draft and the expectation the Jaguars
52:40
Speaker 1: will draft Trevor Lawrence and many people saying that, I'm
52:43
Speaker 1: not saying Trevor Lawrences hall of Famer, It's like, what's
52:47
Speaker 1: that's way down the road. But the potential of selecting
52:53
Speaker 1: a franchise changing quarterback to go along with a franchise
53:00
Speaker 1: is changing coach. We should make people be extremely excited.

56:45
Speaker 1: J P. Shadrick, Jeff Logaman, Glad you're along with us
56:48
Speaker 1: today on what has been an eventful day for the
56:51
Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguars. Nothing official has been announced yet what Urban
56:56
Speaker 1: Meyer is in the building and they're getting close to
56:59
Speaker 1: a fine analized agreement, and if it happens in the
57:02
Speaker 1: next three minutes, we'll give it to you. If not,
57:05
Speaker 1: stay tuned on Jaguars dot com and Jaguars social media
57:08
Speaker 1: for the latest from t I A A. Bank Fields
57:11
Speaker 1: so almost so imminent. We keep looking looking through the windows.
57:14
Speaker 1: You're gonna walk to all left going okay, are they
57:16
Speaker 1: gonna come over? We're gonna give us a thumbs up
57:18
Speaker 1: or or or thumbs down. I don't know. Yeah, the
57:21
Speaker 1: white smoke, because Tony said is is uh, maybe they're
57:24
Speaker 1: firing up to fire right now to put the white smoke.
57:26
Speaker 1: The conversation about some of the negotiations involved facilities with
57:33
Speaker 1: urban Meyer. Albert bu reported that Sports Illustrated that the
57:36
Speaker 1: facilities and staffing, facility upgrades and staffing or some of
57:40
Speaker 1: the negotiation in the final final minutes. Yeah, I think staff.
57:44
Speaker 1: The facilities part is a natural. You know, we've had
57:48
Speaker 1: the opportunity to travel and to watch this Jaguars football
57:52
Speaker 1: team practice. Other teams in the Minnesota Vikings, the New
57:54
Speaker 1: England Patriots, uh Baltimore Ravens, and all of those play
58:00
Speaker 1: has had facilities that were amazing. Minnesota had facilities that
58:06
Speaker 1: were just, I mean off the chart amazing where they
58:09
Speaker 1: essentially are developing an entire area and they have a
58:13
Speaker 1: stadium of many stadium in there that they can actually
58:16
Speaker 1: hold scrimmages and they can host high school football. I mean,
58:19
Speaker 1: they have an orthopedic medical part to that whole complex.
58:23
Speaker 1: But I mean, if if you wanted to look at
58:25
Speaker 1: where the Jaguars are and where they may be behind
58:29
Speaker 1: compared to other teams in the National Football League, the
58:31
Speaker 1: facilities is probably the biggest one. And that I would
58:36
Speaker 1: think that if verbon Meyer had been him coming from
58:38
Speaker 1: college football where college football it seems to be the
58:41
Speaker 1: Great Arms race, which is the facilities race. Every couple
58:44
Speaker 1: of years. It's you know, the Ohio States and the
58:46
Speaker 1: Alabama's in the Florida's, I mean all those teams and
58:49
Speaker 1: where he's been I mean the facilities have been just unbelievable,
58:52
Speaker 1: so coming here and having and look, they work fine
58:57
Speaker 1: and work fine for me, but I mean in the
58:59
Speaker 1: new modern NFL, the facilities need to be upgraded and
59:03
Speaker 1: to attract free agents. When money is even and everything,
59:06
Speaker 1: maybe it makes a difference. And if it, if it
59:08
Speaker 1: does make a difference, then you want to have the
59:10
Speaker 1: best of the best. So I'm sure that was part
59:12
Speaker 1: of the conversation. I'm sure it was, and I'm sure
59:14
Speaker 1: at some point you will hear the news on that
59:16
Speaker 1: front as well. Logs. Great to see you, great to
59:20
Speaker 1: be seen, Yes, sir, it is, and we'll talk to
