00:00Dive into it with whatever you want to start with, feel free.
00:05Yes, thank you, Jeremy. I will touch on a few things.
00:07I know Bubba's already released a lot of information today.
00:11But this morning, we were informed that our staff,
00:16meaning our coaches and some of our staff,
00:21can come back to work on June 15th.
00:25We'll be tested on June 12th.
00:28What we will do at that time is we will have staff that has to be in the building.
00:36We're calling them essential staff members to do their job.
00:40And the non-essential, not meaning non-important,
00:44but non-essential to do their jobs can do their jobs from home.
00:48And we'll continue to do that probably through the summer.
00:52So we will not have receptionists in the building.
00:55Melinda Anderson, my assistant, will not be in the building.
00:58She'll be working from home.
01:00There will not be any visitors in the building.
01:03We will be working probably three days a week to start with for four hours a day.
01:09And we'll work that because the purpose of starting this early for us
01:15is to make sure that our medical staff and our procedures can handle our team,
01:20our staff, and our coaches in a proper way so everybody stays healthy.
01:28So our players then will start being phased in on the 12th of June.
01:36Since we were told this morning, we haven't decided exactly how many numbers that will be,
01:41but it will be smaller groups.
01:44It will not be the full 120.
01:46The medical people did not feel good about bringing that many in on one day.
01:51They wanted to bring in smaller groups and then test those groups.
01:55So they'll be tested on the 12th.
01:58Our staff is charged with determining which of the players are in that first group
02:04between now and probably the end of next week or so
02:08so we can start letting them prepare to come back on the 12th.
