On Wednesday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers introduced their new defensive line coach Brentson Buckner.
Buckner was genuine even before he answered his first question. He walked into the room, walked to the podium, smiled and even gave a little laugh. When he was asked what the smile was for, he said, “I’m excited. This is like Christmas for me.”
In the full video below, courtesy of the Buccaneers twitter account, Buckner talks about the new defense he’ll bring, how he approaches being a coach, the goals for this season, some stories from his old playing days and how he intends bring a championship caliber defensive line back to the city of Tampa Bay – one he said he admired year ago.
Watch as much as you can. Buckner’s passion was a treat to see.
