Ryan Poles

We're going to take the North and never give it back.

I would say only in a pinch.

We like him at left guard.

That's where we'd like him to play next year.

You got to win the first one, right?

You got to get started.

But what are you willing to sacrifice to do that?

There's some things you can do.

You all have seen that before I got here.

You can accelerate it, and then after, it goes away pretty quick.

So we got to balance both.

Unfortunately, that's not reality in terms of...

you know, picking it and do you want to go all in and hurt yourself down the road?

Our mindset is to do both, win now and then be able to sustain that and have flexibility.

It's not going to be easy, you know what I mean?

Like I can guarantee you, you know, we've been really good with that money at some point that's going to go up too because that's just the nature of playing this out over a long period of time and having tough decisions to make.

Random calls of people, I don't know how they have my number, to being in Grand Cayman and bumping up in the pool and start telling me about where they want the stadium.

So yeah, I got a lot of faith in Kevin and George to get that done and do what's best for the organization or fan base.

There's a lot of pieces involved with that, but like I said, I got enough to worry about with the roster.

Is that your stock answer when people come up to you at the pool and ask you?
