00:00 Obviously, compared to spring, and it's obviously very early,
00:04 but have you noticed any big changes body-wise
00:06 with any of the guys?
00:07 Yeah, I'm going to miss some as you go through it.
00:09 I know, obviously, I think somebody put something out.
00:13 Somebody sent me something last night.
00:15 Somebody might have retweeted or something,
00:17 of pictures or something.
00:19 But yeah, you can go through that.
00:23 I always give the strength coaches a hard time
00:25 about the picture, so that's why I laugh.
00:29 But you still look at the numbers of--
00:32 even I think OJ Burrows, like Marvin Grant,
00:35 those are two guys that have changed, I think, some of our--
00:40 you look at our defensive linemen.
00:43 I think Devin Phillips.
00:46 I still think DJ Withers continues to grow.
00:49 I think there's Caleb Taylor's a guy that's really changed.
00:53 Now, Caleb's had struggles keeping the weight
00:56 on during this time.
00:57 He really loses a lot.
01:00 But I think he was pushing 310.
01:02 And I can remember our first year,
01:03 he was playing as much football as anybody,
01:06 and I think he was under 270 playing defensive tackle
01:08 in conference play.
01:10 So keeping that on as best we can will be great.
01:15 And hopefully, we can get Caleb in a really good spot.
01:21 Spencer Lovell's a guy that Spencer's lost some weight
01:23 and moving a lot better, a lot better
01:26 than he did in the spring.
01:28 And he's going to help us.
01:30 I'm missing other guys, so I apologize.
01:33 But I'm giving you a quick off the cuff
01:35 of if there's someone else that's sticking out.
01:38 I'm sure I'm going to walk out of here soon.
01:41 Yeah, I should have mentioned this guy.
01:42 But there's some guys in there that have really kind of
01:45 continued to do it.
01:46 Matt and his staff.
01:47 Hayden Hatcher, I should have said.
01:49 Hayden's one that really put on close to 20 pounds.
01:54 And I think he's still moving at a rate that what
01:59 makes him effective is that he has such a great motor.
