reading the defenses understanding what the defense is doing understanding the situation knowing what needs to be done at what time I think I've grown in all those spots so yeah that's that's what I'll say what kind of a relationship have you developed with Jamal Banks considering that that you guys are similar Age and and you know coming in here in the same offseason to you know compete for the same the same stuff uh me and Jamal have a great relationship I remember uh I met him on my visit here you know we we talked it up you and um from that point on it's it's the relationship has
