00:00David, do you think that delay for a week and getting them out of some of the interview

00:19processes of the, you know, the Aaron Glenn's, the Ben Johnson's, the guys that are no longer

00:23to interview with, do you think that hurts them? Or do you think the pool that they're

00:26going for is not even in that, in that interview pool?

00:31Somehow I think both of those answers are correct. Like, I mean, I think it's silly.

00:35I think it does hurt them that they are now not able to talk to so many of these guys.

00:41I think like a team that was doing it by the book and, and crossing all their T's and dotting

00:48all of their I's and doing this efficiently and correctly, I think obviously that's bad.

00:55Like, you know, to not have access to Ben Johnson or Aaron Glenn or some of these other

00:59guys, not good. But at the same time, it's the Dallas Cowboys and they're going to do

01:05things a very specific way. I wrote about this today. You know, Jerry Jones has hired

01:10eight head coaches and seven of those have either a very proven track record of head

01:17coaching success, or they have a very personal relationship to the team and to Jerry and

01:25ownership. And so do I think the Cowboys need that extra time to hop on zoom calls with

01:32Ben Johnson? Not really, because I doubt that they're going to go that way. Now, maybe they

01:38should have a more all-inclusive turning over every stone hiring process, but that's not

01:45the world that we're living in. So I think it's bad that they cut themselves out of some

01:51of those conversations. But I also think it's kind of irrelevant.
