302:46
else? I mean, there's a couple times.
302:48
But, like, that's a freshman mistake.
302:49
That's what freshmen are going to do.
302:51
But he's really impressed me on and off the field because just the transformation of the weight room from winter to summer.
303:00
Dude squats 700 pounds, so, I mean, I think that's pretty good.
303:07
He kind of beat me on squat, but they held me off.

Have you noticed that as well? Was that something that kind of
201:34
came up? 100%, yeah, it's a great point by Taker.
201:37
I mean, he has like two full seasons in the SEC under his belt.
201:42
So he's seen a lot of different defenses and he's a very smart dude.
201:46
I know he has like two defeats from Bambler or something like that.
201:49
So he's a really smart dude and definitely knows what he's doing.
speaker_24UNKNOWN
205:47
I guess in what area, mentally or physically, what was the bigger ?
205:52
I'd say mentally, just getting more plays under my belt and kind of having the game slow down.

How do you roll, assuming you get through that, how do you then roll that into fall camp successfully?
187:26
It starts with having a great summer.
187:28
It starts with getting bigger, faster, and stronger in the summer and kind of understanding the playbook more as I move into fall camp and just rolling with that momentum into the season.
187:42
I'll say just my like punching mechanics and kind of my run game
speaker_11UNKNOWN
190:57
I guess in what area mentally or physically? What was the bigger
191:03
? I'd say mentally just getting more plays under my belt and kind of having the game slow down.
191:07
When you first get here, Everything's new, everything's faster, but once you start seeing different defensive formations and kind of recognizing different things that are going on, it kind of enables you to play a lot faster.
191:19
Physically, I've put on a lot of size and strength, my lower and upper body, so it helps me play at this level.
