Transcript

As growing up, I didn't like when people wasted my time. And I don't want to I don't want to waste the players' time. And I don't want to waste the coaches' time. And I don't make the coaches stay at night. Maybe that's why I got guys been with me so long. All right? And we start at 7:00, 7:30 in the morning like everybody else. And you stay till your work's done. And I'm not checking to see who's there and who isn't. Right? But I can tell you one thing, when we're in that office, [music] it's all business. You know, it is all business. It's organized preparation. And when we're on that practice field, look, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, hour 35 to an hour 45. Hour 35 to an hour 45. Monday, walk-through. Friday, [music] shorter walk-through. I believe in keeping them fresh and healthy. And our players like the way we run the program. We've had a great culture for the last 8 to 10 years.
