  Speaker 1: All right, guys, welcome in to another week of talking
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Hoco Bears football.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Always a good way to start the week.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Our conversation with Coach Jeremy Edwards, the head coach of
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: the House of County Bears, brought to you, of course,
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: by State Farm Agent Ryan Lyons, protectedbyryan.com. That's the website
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: you go to. You'll take care of all your insurance needs,
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: car insurance, home insurance, whatever you need. Ryan Lyons can
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: get you taken care of. It's been around a long
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: time and conveniently located right there on Russell Parkway in
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Warner Robins. And, of course, we couldn't start the show
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: also without giving a big shout-out to Ronnie Brown, super
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: fan of Ronnie Brown, mega supporter for the Hoco Bears. So,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: with that being said, the introduction's in order. Let's welcome
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: in now one more, and that is the main player, Hoco,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: head football coach Jeremy Edwards.
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: Coach, good morning.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: How are you? I'm good, Phil. Good morning.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Coach and I made some phone calls to each other
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: this morning and decided we'd come up with the same shirt.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I'm just kidding.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: We did not do that, but nevertheless, I do too.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Very proud of my HOCO swag. I can promise you that.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: The hat, the shirt, and of course, we couldn't start
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: the show without the HOCO helmet in the back. So,
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: All right, Coach, coming off a bye week. And I
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: don't know, you tell me, after a couple of losses,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: I would guess that they're coming at a good time.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Yes and no.
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, obviously, if you do happen to lose going
• 1:42
  Speaker 4: into a bye week, you got that taste in your
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: mouth for two weeks.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: That's true.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: So that part is– is the negative, but the positive
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: is we, we got better last week. Um, you know,
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: we do, uh, an after action review and try to
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: figure out, you know, what the issues are and what
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: are the things we need to fix within our, our organization. And, um,
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: you know, I think we addressed those things this past
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: week in practice, we were able to get healed up.
• 2:14
  Speaker 4: We had some guys that were a little dinged up
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: that we should be able to get back.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: And, uh, be at full force. And so that's always good.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: And then, uh, but we also took some time, you know,
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: Monday and Friday to kind of, uh, you know, give
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: them some days off as far as practice goes, simply
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: because we're about to play six in a row. Uh,
• 2:36
  Speaker 4: and if we're fortunate enough to make it to the
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: second season, then, uh, we'll just have to keep on playing.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: And so, um, we got to preserve our bodies.
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: So, uh, recovery is, uh, is essential for our guys
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: to make sure they prioritize that and attack everything with
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: a pro mindset.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: I got you.
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: Well, and, of course, the whole reason I was bringing
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: that up, you know, and I want to ask you,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: you guys start the season 2-0, really look good. And
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: to be honest with you, at least one big part
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: of the team has not looked bad.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: And that, of course, is the offense. But I've got
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: to ask you, if you don't mind, just kind.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Of being straightforward here with you, Coach, that's a lot
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: of points to give up. And I just kind of
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: wanted to know what your thoughts are with that and
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: kind of what's going on with the defense.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Well, you know, I think one thing's for certain is
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: we played two really good teams, Central Carrollton and Westlake.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: That always hurts, yep.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: And I know you and.
• 3:41
  Speaker 4: I have discussed this, but you know, there are two
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: of the top ranked offenses in the state.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Correct.
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: You're not playing, you know, guys that are, aren't very good.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: And with that, you know, we always respect all of
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: our opponents and, you know, um, you know, I guess
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: when it comes down to it, really in two games,
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: you're talking about four or five plays and we're sitting
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: here at a, in a, in a different, uh, having
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: a different conversation, um, you know, and so, um, we
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: didn't make those plays and that's what it boils down to. I,
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: you know, I think, um, football can be, uh, it's
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: said to be a game of inches and details and
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: all those things matter. And if we were to take
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: care of a few things here and there, uh, in
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: those games, and, uh, we would be sitting, uh, here
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: possibly four. No. Um, so it didn't happen. It's the
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: past we've moved on from it. Um, we've gotten better
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: for it. You know, uh, I think, um, you've got
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: to attack, uh, it's, it's how you react to, to
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: be honest. And, um, you know, failing is learning. It's
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: something we always talk about and, you know, you got
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: to try to find the wins in the losses. And
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: a lot of times games aren't won on Friday night,
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: they're lost on a Friday night.
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: And in those instances, you know, we, uh, we didn't
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: do what we needed to do to, uh.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: Secure the victory in it. And winning is not something
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: we take for granted. So, We'd love to get back
• 5:09
  Speaker 4: on the winning side, and it's not something.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: We're used to.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: We've been very fortunate and blessed to be more.
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: On the winning side than the losing.
• 5:20
  Speaker 4: Side, but to lose two in a row, it's uncharted
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: waters for us and something we don't really like, and
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: so we've attacked this past week with a mindset to
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: try to fix the problems and get better for it
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: and make sure the biggest thing is You've got to
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: stay positive, and you've got to believe in one another,
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: and you've got to have some connection. And so we
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: made sure we addressed that as well this past week.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: I got you.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: So you're 2-2, and again, the good thing is, although
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: it doesn't have the same impact necessarily as before this year,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: but 2-2, four games, non-region games. So, and again, I
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: say that because, you know, it's changed. Things have changed
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: with the way the new playoff format system goes, I
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: guess is what I'm trying to say. In other words,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: top four teams in the region not going to make
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the playoffs. The truth is probably just about every team
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: in this region is going to make the playoffs, maybe
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: except for one or two. But anyway, that being said,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: you got the region play going to start this weekend
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: and you got Tift County coming to town. In fact,
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: you got the first two region games coming. uh, will
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: fortunately be home games. Uh, you're looking at Tiff County
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: this week and then Thomas County central week after that.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: But first things first, uh, talk about your upcoming opponent,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: which will be the region opener for you guys.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: And that's Tiff County.
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Tiff County is a good football team.
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: You know, we were able to watch them, uh, go
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: out there and watch them against coffee this past week
• 6:56
  Speaker 4: on Friday night at, um, you know, at their place,
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: which is a great place, um, you know, to watch
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: a game. I, I don't know that I've ever been
• 7:05
  Speaker 4: there as a fan. I guess I really wasn't a fan, but, uh,
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: as a spectator and, uh, what a cool place down
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: in Tifton, you.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: Know, we've obviously played there, but just to my hometown. Yeah.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: To experience it on a different level. Um, but you know,
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: they played, uh, they played coffee in there. Um, you know,
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: that game was close, you know, they had a shot to, uh,
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: to tie it up right before half, um, kid dropped
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: the ball right there, right when the time expired.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: So, to, to make it 21, 21.
• 7:34
  Speaker 4: And, and, uh, they just, they just didn't make enough
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: plays in the second half, but they're a good football team.
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: They got some good looking dudes out there running around. Um,
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: you know, they, I didn't, you know, they've got really,
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: really good kicker, you know, I was surprised of the,
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: their kicker.
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: So, um, we do too.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Uh, so I think it'll be a good, good matchup
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: with the two kickers for sure. But, um, yeah, I think,
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: We've got a lot of respect for Jeff Littleton and
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: what he does.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: And, you know, I've known him for a little while.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: And there's a couple guys on staff there that I've
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: coached with in the past.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: So, you know, it's going to be a good night.
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: And last year they came to us as well. But
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: with the two-year deal, they're back traveling to us again.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: But they're a good football team.
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: And if we don't take care of business, then we
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: won't be able to get the taste out of our mouth,
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: that's for sure.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, losing three would not be a good feeling, especially
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: two before the bob and then coming off that. But
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I'm assuming, again, with the two weeks off, or with
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: the week off, rather, you guys had a chance to
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: correct some things. Speaking of that, anything, and of course,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I know you can't really disclose trade secrets, you know.
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: That's what they call it, the tradecrafts.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: But with that being said, any changes you can talk
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: about on the defensive side, be it personnel, schemes, or
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: what have you, you scored 66 and 51 points. That
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: should be enough to win a football game. And listen,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: I'm preaching to the choir. You know that, but you're
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: the head coach. But for the fans out there watching,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: what do you think?
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: Did we change anything?
• 9:20
  Speaker 4: No. You know, we'll get some guys back from injuries. Uh, well,
• 9:27
  Speaker 4: we'll get our nose guard back. Uh, Zion Negron, who
• 9:30
  Speaker 4: is a really good football player. So he's, uh, you know,
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: when you play an odd front and your, your nose
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: guard is, is injured for the last two weeks, you know,
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: that hurts you. Um, I'm not going to say we
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: didn't tweak some things schematically. We could talk about that
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: off the air if you want to, or go grab
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: some coffee. Um, but, uh, But, yeah, really the bottom
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: line is, Phil, if you really were to watch both
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: of those games, um, we, we got to do a
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: better job tackling. So yes, we fundamentally, we worked on
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: some things, uh, you know, we got to get guys
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: on the ground, you know, they're not just going to
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: fall down just because, uh, we're near them, you know?
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: And so we worked on tackling this off this past week, um,
• 10:16
  Speaker 4: just kind of shoring up some of the fundamentals, um,
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: simplifying some things for our guys so we don't have
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: any mental.
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: Busts out there on Friday night.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: We evaluated everything, but I don't think that you make a.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: Full change in anything. Look at the Westlake game.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: We started off, we were up 17 to nothing, and
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: they didn't have a first down in the first quarter.
• 10:46
  Speaker 4: All of a sudden, they... They didn't really necessarily make
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: any changes. I'm talking about Westlake and what they did offensively,
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: but what we didn't do is play consistent. We didn't tackle,
• 11:00
  Speaker 4: you know, the running back. You know, we didn't cover
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: the 6'6 receiver they had that's going to West Virginia,
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: which he's tough.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: To cover anyways.
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: I was going to say, how do you do that? Yeah,
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: we just got to stay consistent. And so I don't
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: think you just say, oh, we lost two games, let's
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: throw it out. You know, we're not– whatever. I mean,
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: our coaches are good. They know what they're doing. But
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: I think that, you know, when you get your back
• 11:28
  Speaker 4: against the wall per se in this kind of situation,
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: you just really want to try to take a step
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: back and evaluate everything.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: And so wholesale changes, no, but fundamentals, yes, we need
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: to work on that.
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: And we did that this past week and we'll continue
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: to do that this week as we prepare for TIFF.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Well, listen, You know, you've always heard the saying, the
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: glass is half full or half empty, okay?
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: So I talked about the half empty part. Well, let's
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: talk about the half full part, the fact that, you know,
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: you scored. You know, I just used it in one way,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: and I'll use it in another now.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: You scored 66 points and 51 points. Before that, you
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: scored 45 and 38. Those were wins. So one thing's
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: for sure, Coach. The offense, as it always is under
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: Jeremy Edwards– is clicking on all cylinders.
• 12:21
  Speaker 3: Well, it's a week-to-week process, you know. Yeah, I understand.
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: I appreciate the kind words, but, you know, our guys,
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: you know, our system is not overly complicated.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: We've got guys that are playing at a high level
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: right now, you know.
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: We've got a running back that's playing at a high level,
• 12:42
  Speaker 4: and obviously when you can establish the run, it helps
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: out the pass game, you know, and Ryan's still doing
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: what he does, you know, incredible being, being consistent.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: There are a handful of things that's happened this season.
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: And I, I think that he wishes that he could
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: get back, but again, it's you know, it's an opportunity
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: to grow from it. And he's got a great mindset
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: and our offensive line is playing really well together. Our
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: tight end, Josh Pettigrew is a totally different player from
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: what he was last year. He was always good, but
• 13:21
  Speaker 4: he's made strides in his ability to block and catch
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: the ball. You know, we've got a handful of receivers
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: that are, you know, maybe not household names, but they
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: do what we ask them to do and they play hard. And,
• 13:37
  Speaker 4: you know, we're starting to gel a little bit, you know,
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: and so hopefully we can keep that momentum going but
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: it's a credit to our coaching staff and getting these
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: guys ready and those guys just putting in the work
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: every day and practice and playing for one another. Again,
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: you talk about losing two games. Like I said, you've
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: got to stay positive and you've got to be able
• 14:03
  Speaker 4: to have some connection and have each other's.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: Back, and so we'll continue to do that.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: Well, again, Uh, we're only here at the, well, I
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: guess you can say halfway point, actually a little less
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: than the halfway point of the regular season. And, uh,
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: and again, really you've got the most important element of
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: the season coming up with the start of region play six.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Uh, is that right? Six region games you got left, right?
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: Yes, sir. Be six in a row.
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: All back to back to back, baby. You gotta love it.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: And I know your team is going to come back
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: and do well.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: Hey, uh, You mentioned two losses.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: If you can get through this region schedule, winning them
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: all or maybe five and one, then you're looking in
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: pretty good shape. Have you taken a look yet at
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: all at your PSR ranking?
• 14:55
  Speaker 3: No, I don't really. We're kind of just focused on
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: one week at a time.
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: I think there's something to be said, obviously, about our–
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: excuse me, our, our region and the level of, uh,
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: football that we compete against, you know, Thomas County Central's
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: nationally ranked, you know, Lee County was nationally ranked. Coffee is,
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: you know, one of the top in the state, um,
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: you know, Northside and, uh, and Tift and veterans all
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: improved football programs. And so you, you put those guys
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: up against anybody really.
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's just tough.
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: And I know that's talked about a lot and, maybe
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: over-talked about, I guess. But, you know, I think as a,
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: you know, a head coach at a program that, you know,
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: I feel like that we've got a football team, you know,
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: that's really.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Really good.
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: And we do some positive things, you know. But we
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: also have a whole lot of respect for the competition
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: in which we play week in and week out. And
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: we know we've got to bring our best. There are
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: no weeks where we can just, you know, play our
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: reserves or anything like that, you know?
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: So it's, it's tough. It's a little bit of a
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: gauntlet mentally.
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: You got to get yourself ready for it as well
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: as a coach, but more importantly, these kids and, you know,
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: giving them a great experience. And so they, they get
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: to play football in this state at a very high
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: level against high level competition.
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: And if that doesn't get you going, I don't know
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: what does.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: I hear you, man.
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: I hear you.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Well, again, a chance to get back out there after
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: a week off. And as you said, get that, quote,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: bad taste out of your mouth. And you guys will
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: have a chance to do that hosting Tift County, which
• 16:49

  Speaker 3: for them yet.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: We still need to have a great week of practice,
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: but we've certainly got– You know, a weekend where we
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: were kind of able to kind of show our guys,
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: you know, some some base looks at what these guys
• 17:10
  Speaker 4: are going to do.
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: And, you know, we got to go out and compete.
• 17:14
  Speaker 4: And it's always nice to be at home. You know,
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: we were home last week. We like being at home or,
