reference to the events on August 20th, 2008,
that occurred during the PRP football practice.
Please describe the events of August the 20th,
2008, from the beginning to the end of
practice.

Webb Uhm, first we go out and we uh, stretch and do

like our warm-ups. And then uh, we break off
in to defense and offense and do uh, team take-
off. After that, we do uhm, individuals, and
usually after like a couple drills, about 20
minutes, we get uhm, water breaks through
that. And then uh, we come together with uh,
like the DB's and receivers, they come together
and do like uh, seven on seven and stuff like
that, and on line and d-line do stuff together,
and we usually get water breaks through that,
Page 3 of 8
Statement: Devin Webb / Case #08197(h)
September 10, 2008

about every 15 to 20 minutes. After that, we

go to team and we uh, scrimmage, we get a
water break through there...maybe one or two
through there, and uh, after that we uh, might
do specialties and get a water break after that.
And usually we uh, run after that. And we're
allowed to get water afterwards. And that's it.

Jones Did anything else involve your practice that

particular day?

Webb Uh, well...

Jones You, you, you stated you did drills, you did
some other type of training...and seven on
seven or, or...or team...

Webb We did a little extra runnin' that day but we

didn't really do any other.

Jones Okay. Okay...so it was uh, uh...just a normal

practice day?

Webb Yes, sir.

Jones Okay. Uh, with that being said, how are water
breaks given? Individually or as a team?

Webb Uh, well, Coach Stinson usually gives us about

three water breaks as a team and uh, in
individuals we get one around every, like
between each drill...only about 20 minutes.

Jones Okay. So three as a team and how many as an

individual?

Webb Pro'bly four maybe?

Jones Okay. On August 20th, 2008, how many water

breaks did you take?

Webb Oh, only, only about five or six.

Jones After the last water break, what did the practice
consist of?

Webb Uh, our last water break after we uh, we ran.

We did our uh, conditioning.

Jones Okay. Uh, is that considered like conditioning

drills?

Webb It's uh, gassers.

Jones Okay. Why was the team running sprints?

Webb Well, we uh, usually we run 'em every day but

we ran a little extra that day 'cause we were
kinda, kinda havin' like a bum practice and we
were walkin' from drill to drill.

Jones Okay. So you normally run gassers uh, every

practice, after every practice?

Webb Yes, sir.

Jones Uh, and this particular day you said the team
was dragging or...

Webb yeah, we were, it was a bum practice. We were

walkin' from drill to drill and just...

Jones Okay. Uh, the team was loafing?

Webb Yes, sir.

Webb Uhm, honestly, I don't really know. I didn't

to?

Webb Well uhm, usually we, we sprint and like, like

the backs and receivers, they run and then the
line runs, like that.

Webb Yes, sir.

Jones Uh, how many sprints did you run before

taking off your gear, or any gear?

those? Are they, is it like a sprint or what is
