This is the Sea Hawkers podcast.

I'm Brandon Schultz, and I am joined by my good buddies, Adam Emmert and Clinton Bonner,

as we have some news this week about our quarterback, Gino Smith.

Gino Smith was facing a deadline of whether or not he would remain on the roster.

If he were to be cut, then the Seahawks would gain all the salary cap space that he was due.

But instead, the Seahawks decide to keep him.

Not only do they keep him, but they do a restructuring on his contract.

We're going to get into it.

What does it mean? What does it all mean? Clinton, how you doing? I'm doing great. I'm fired

up for Gino. Look, I've got takes on that. We'll discuss in a little bit. I just want to say to all

the Gino haters out there still, do you enjoy being wrong? Do you enjoy being wrong over and over and over

again and like ignoring, you know, eyeballs and eye test and then advanced metrics. Gino is really good.

And I'm very hopeful that this latest move just keeps them, keeps him with our Seahawks because the

Duke and ball. Adam, how about you, dude? How are you doing?

I'm doing great, man. I like the move. I want to keep Gino.

I think the stability is going to help as we make this transition to the new coaching staff.

And, you know, Ryan Grubb being able to implement his scheme and all of that.

I do think that the idea of having Grub with very little or no NFL

experience, having a guy from the NFL in Gino that's been around so many different

organizations and great quarterbacks and different systems and all that stuff, I think

that's somebody that he can lean on it. And I think that could be super helpful and help smooth the transition into the NFL for Grub. And that's one of the things I think that's somebody that he can lean on it. I think that could be super helpful and help smooth the transition into the NFL for Grub.

And that's one of the things I'm excited about.
