00:00 >> Is Casey still gonna be around as soon as you go out of your-
00:03 >> I'm not sure they're handling that
00:05 stuff through the league and when it's all settled, then I can have an answer for
00:08 him right now.
00:09 >> What are your thoughts on the league?
00:11 >> I have no thoughts of the league.
00:13 That's the league and they have to go through their process.
00:16 I have no thoughts on it.
00:17 I think, I love Casey, too, and I think he's a good hard-knocking stuff football
00:22 player, but you just gotta adhere to what those rules are and
00:27 whatever they say they are, so we'll find out what his situation will be.
00:31 >> What did you- >> There's been other former players,
00:33 coaches that have talked about the challenge in teaching how to tackle and
00:37 in open field tackles, things like that.
00:38 I mean, how much more difficult has it become to teach tackle,
00:43 to teach proper technique when there are an increase in fines and scrutiny and
00:47 things like that?
00:48 >> Well, and it is, I mean, but it's all about the player's safety.
00:53 And so that comes on us to just really continue to just try to keep educating our
00:58 guys and understanding, and there's gonna be some situations that we can't win.
01:02 And I think that's really the biggest thing, cuz a lot of times,
01:07 in some situations we do see maybe a hit is really just guys just trying
01:12 to not let the other guy catch the ball.
01:15 Not trying to hurt him, but just trying not to let the other guy catch the ball.
01:19 And there's sometimes those are situations, hey, guess what, guys?
01:22 We can't win that one.
01:23 And so we have to just continue to educate our guys, teaching the proper
01:26 techniques, and doing the best we can that way, and then go from there.
