Let the celebration begin.

0:15.0

Just when Rubin I thought we're going to have to conjure up some stuff for this podcast,

0:20.0

Holly comes through a couple signings on Wednesday. The Eagles bringing in Eric Wilson, Jordan

0:27.3

Howard. It's a good star for us.

0:29.1

Yeah, we're sitting there. We were literally like an hour before we're sitting there like,

0:33.4

boy, we don't have a lot of like news for the podcast. We're going to have to come up with this and this and this to kind of make up for it.

0:39.5

And we had some good topics and we'll get to them in the next couple weeks but I mean it was like clockwork and I think it really shows a fundamental change in the way how he is doing his business because in the past how we would wait until we recorded our third he would know he would wait

When John Gannin came in, you know, he was he was coming from, you know, a less, you know, he's he's kind of a ascending young coach first coordinator job and you didn't know how much people would listen to him in the building.
