Hello, everybody. Welcome to a special episode of HawkBlogger Mornings. I'm Brian Mouser. You can find me all the stuff that we do on YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram at HawkBlogger.

And if you want ad free, which who doesn't want ad free, you can get it to patreon.com slash hawk blogger, which also gets you access to the Discord server and a bunch of other stuff where Dana and other cool people hang out. And we're really happy to be back with you on, what is it, day three that we've been here for the combine. And it's been a pretty eventful day. We actually

had a chance. If you caught it earlier, we had an exclusive interview with Mike McDonald,

which was cool. And I think there were some things that came out of that that were newsworthy.

We then had a podium session press conference with Mike McDonald. And then we had a third local beat reporters conversation.

There was news in each of those areas that we're going to have to kind of remember.

I'm sure we'll forget some of it.

And then we also had a chance to talk to some of the edge prospects that were at the podium

today.

And there were some that have already been linked to

the Seahawks based off the fact that we're here and we talk to them. So a lot of really cool stuff

to do before we get into all of it. Dana O'Gorman, it's so nice to see you. It's such a pleasure

to be in person with you. How are you doing? I'm doing great. I love the combine.

I think it's just so much fun to get up and close and personal with these players and get to know them just a little bit. It just kind of that much more personal. I love it. And you guys are here. So it's fun. It's a bonus. It's a bonus. I'm realizing I need to take my credential and twist it to the back here.

You guys might want to do the same.

So, Jeff, Simmons, big thing happened today. Do you want to tell people what is? You want to guess of what I'm thinking? I have no idea what you're thinking. I think you know what I'm thinking.

I'm guessing he was tipped off. I don't know. When he came to sit down, I'm sure he's like, who am I mean with now? He's a big fan of twitter cop i am sure of it like when he saw the

short shorts he can pull those off all up there than i can yes yes um so yeah i there there's a ton to go

through and and i'm honestly we're going to try to make this a little quick i haven't had a chance to

edit the interview with my mcdonald post it so i apologize for the fact that's going to come a little later today. This will also come a little bit later because I'm going to try to go to the big data bowl after this and get some insights about what's going on there and that. And then I'll have to break down all of this because unfortunately I'm going to have to leave a day earlier. I'm leaving tonight. Jeff's going to be around. Dana's going to be around. They

might get some cool stuff. So we'll keep track of that. But let's first talk about what was newsworthy

and noteworthy that's happened today. I'll start off with one that for me was,
