But we're 13 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 3: not doing that for a couple of reasons. Huskies did 14 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,879 Speaker 3: not win, and nobody wants to hear any of that, 15 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:51,240 Speaker 3: I think. On Saturday at Husky Stadium after a twenty 16 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 3: six to fourteen loss to the Oregon Ducks, a game 17 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 3: that saw the Huskies go eight and four on the air, 18 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 3: five and four in the Big Ten, which is one 19 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 3: game better than last year, two more wins overall in 20 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 3: the regular season than last year. 21 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,200 Speaker 1: So boys were making progress. 22 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 3: Welcome to progress, Man Greg Lewis, Mario Bailey with us 23 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,759 Speaker 3: one final time, bittersweet, one last time for the three 24 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 3: of us to get together before the ball game. Who 25 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 3: knows where and when that will be. Rumors about the 26 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 3: LA Ball, rumors about the Holiday Bowl in San Diego. 27 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 3: But I think we're all still kind of reeling a 28 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 3: little bit after Saturday's loss against the Ducks. So let's 29 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 3: start with you guys. Mario, you go first. We always 30 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 3: allow Greg to go first for whatever reason. Discuss maybe 31 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 3: it's age before beauty. I got no idea that's most likely. Well, 32 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 3: let's let you go first. The view from forty thousand feet, 33 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 3: What you made of what you saw Saturday? 34 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 4: I thought our defense once again kept us in the game. 35 00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 4: That kept us in the game, definitely in the first half. 36 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 4: I was impressed with Oregon going after our corners a 37 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 4: little bit, but for the most part, our offense just struggled. 38 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 4: And we talked about a pregame that the offense needs 39 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 4: to start early to get going, but they could not 40 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 4: get it going. The one thing I watched the game 41 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 4: over last night it came on TV, was number twenty 42 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 4: four Adam Muhammad like he was rolling and you're supposed 43 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 4: to go with the hot hand in the first half. 44 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:17,079 Speaker 4: He took us all the way down the field and 45 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 4: we threw an errant pass and it got interception. It 46 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,239 Speaker 4: was definitely into double coverage. I was talking to Softie earlier. 47 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 4: It's a predetermined pass. He knew he was going to Boston. 48 00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:29,839 Speaker 4: They got the look they wanted. Boston was on the linebacker, 49 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 4: but there was a safety there the entire time, and 50 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 4: that kind of took the wind out. The offense tried 51 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,239 Speaker 4: to get it together in the second half, made a 52 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 4: couple of touchdowns. I was impressed with coach Fish calling 53 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 4: the slant down at the goal line to Denzel in 54 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 4: which we never call a slant. It's always a fade. 55 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 4: And then I was also impressed with the over route 56 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 4: they called to Boston. But for the most part, the 57 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 4: offense couldn't do it, and when they did do it 58 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 4: and we had a chance, the defense gave up. The 59 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 4: big play I was watching last night, I thought in 60 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 4: the game time, I thought that they called a blitz. 61 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 4: They did have a blitz formation, but they backed out 62 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 4: of it. But they backed out of it too late. 63 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 4: By that time, that young man caught the ball and 64 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 4: was gone. Down the field. Again, our offense in a 65 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 4: big game struggled the most. Our defense held organ to 66 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 4: enough points that if our offense came to play like 67 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 4: they've played at home, we could have won. But they 68 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 4: couldn't do it. Demand Williams just didn't play well. I 69 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 4: didn't think he did well in the pocket. Again, we 70 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 4: couldn't get him out inside the pocket. It doesn't seem 71 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 4: like he can actually see over the line. He's not 72 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 4: a pocket passer, at least not yet. He's nineteen years old. 73 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, Greg, that was alf a breakdown. By the way, 74 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 3: that was good Stuffy follow that, Greg, Good luck with that. Greg. 75 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 5: Well, you know, I'm always up for a challenge, But 76 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 5: today I'm just gonna compliment my brother Mario and play 77 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 5: complimentary to what he said. Let me just first start 78 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 5: off by I'm freaking bummed that we lost to the 79 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 5: Oregon Ducks. It's always tough for me to lose the 80 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 5: Oregon because if there's a team that I always hope 81 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 5: that we can show up and play our best football 82 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 5: against them, and unfortunately, we did not play our best 83 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 5: football game against the Oregon Ducks. 84 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: Two things stood out to me. 85 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 5: One Right now, they're better than us talent wise, they 86 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 5: are a more talented football team than we are, and 87 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 5: Oregon plays better defense then I've seen them play, you know, 88 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 5: probably in a lot of ways over all the years 89 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 5: that we've come up against them. They're usually, you know, 90 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 5: predicated on explosive offenses, Mario throwing the ball down the field, 91 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 5: having real explosive plays in the run game, and they 92 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 5: didn't necessarily do any of those things. I thought, our defense, again, 93 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 5: I'm gonna play complimentary to what Mario said, played a sound, 94 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 5: fundamental defensive football game where they did not allow Oregon 95 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 5: to have a bunch of big explosive plays. Yes, they 96 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 5: did hit a couple of things on the outside, and 97 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 5: there was a couple of penalties, but I think overall 98 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 5: we did a good job limiting their big explosive plays. 99 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 5: I thought that we did a pretty decent job on 100 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 5: most first and second downs. We limit their running runs 101 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,040 Speaker 5: to two and three yards, especially most of the first half. 102 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 5: But at the end of the day, our defense was 103 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 5: out there too much. Our offense couldn't make any plays. 104 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 5: I think that, you know, for me, I've said this 105 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 5: all year long. We get infatuated and enamored with the 106 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 5: pass game and throwing the ball around. And you know, 107 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 5: I did a little data mining myself, Softian. Do you 108 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 5: know we actually went backwards in passing yards per game 109 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 5: this year over last year. We increased our rushing by 110 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 5: almost forty yards. We talked about all the problems in 111 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 5: the run game and Jonah Coleman's statistics and all that, 112 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 5: but we actually rushed for almost forty yards more per 113 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 5: game this year than we did last year. The pass 114 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 5: game actually went backwards. So for me, that's an indicative 115 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 5: of the coach is not really understanding or leaning on 116 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 5: the thing that's being successful for you, and that really 117 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 5: played out in this game. We should have run the 118 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,359 Speaker 5: ball more, We should have been more patient, We should 119 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 5: have gone with what was working, and we didn't. We 120 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 5: went away from it in the costas well. I mean, 121 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 5: I just I hear a stat like that. 122 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 3: You're right there, ran for twenty twenty four yards this year, 123 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,239 Speaker 3: just under seventeen hundred last year. The difference is obvious, 124 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 3: and that's Will Rogers versus Demon Williams as a runner. 125 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 3: I mean, Will Rodgers was minus seventy nine. Because the 126 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 3: NCAA takes sacks off rushing totals for some stupid reason. 127 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 3: Unlike the NFL demon Williams ran for six hundred yards. 128 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 3: So I mean that's the difference right there. As a 129 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 3: running quarterback. What bums me out? And I'm totally with 130 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 3: you on the Oregon thing. You just kind of never 131 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 3: get over it, no matter how many years it's been. 132 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 3: It's gross. I hate that feeling, and I hope that 133 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,039 Speaker 3: they're just as pissed off over there as. 134 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: We are in the studio. 135 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 3: But Greg and Mario, I'm looking at Joonah Coleman, and 136 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 3: we've been talking about this for months now. In nine 137 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 3: Big Ten games, Joonah Coleman ran for three hundred and 138 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 3: twenty six yards rushing. That is absurd, absurd that Jonah 139 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 3: Coleman would have that kind of a year in the conference. 140 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 3: And I realized he was hurt late in the year, 141 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 3: but not the entire year. Yeah, three hundred and thirty 142 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 3: yards rushing in nine Big Ten games. 143 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:17,559 Speaker 1: For that guy? Are you out of your mind? 144 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 5: I was watching College Football Final when I got home 145 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 5: from our game, and I don't remember the team or 146 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 5: the back off the top of my head right now 147 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 5: because I'm getting old. But there was a young man 148 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 5: who got a helmet sticker for rushing for two hundred 149 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 5: and seventy yards. 150 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 1: He had thirty eight carries. Wow, Jonah Coleman can't. 151 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 5: He hasn't had four games together where he's had thirty 152 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 5: eight carries. Right, that's the big problem. That's the difference. 153 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 5: I'm not gonna sit here and act like Jonah Coleman 154 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 5: himself was disappointing this year. Yes, his stats might be disappointing, 155 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 5: but never in any world will Jonah Coleman playing for 156 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 5: the Washington Huskies or any other running back have thirty 157 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 5: seven thirty eight carries, And so they're never going to 158 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:00,760 Speaker 5: have the big. 159 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: Rushing stats and the big rushing numbers. 160 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 5: So I look at that as a microcosm of the 161 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 5: offensive system that we run, the play calls that we 162 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 5: run in a game. And again you mentioned that, yes, 163 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 5: Demond Williams was a big part of our rushing stats 164 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 5: going up, but our passing stats went down. So again, 165 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 5: we're not really throwing the ball that effectively. That well, Mario, 166 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 5: you are true, and you are one hundred percent right. 167 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 5: You dig into the numbers, we're not throwing the ball 168 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 5: that well at all, and so why not lean into 169 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 5: your players that are doing well. You know, Jonah Coleman 170 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 5: came out like gang busses. Yes, those were less than teams, 171 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 5: but he was doing that Mario in seventeen eighteen carries. 172 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: So against the good teams you get him twenty two 173 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: to twenty three carries. 174 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 5: I think he still has enough and with Adam Muhammad 175 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 5: coming off the off the sideline to spell him enough 176 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 5: for us to win games with the running game being 177 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 5: a bigger part of our offense. 178 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 4: I say that if you were to look at last 179 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 4: year's Big two in rushing for Jonah, I don't think 180 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 4: it's more maybe two hundred more. I don't think he 181 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 4: did great in the Big Big ten last year. 182 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 5: Offensive line stunk last year, yep, So I think it's 183 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 5: a trend. 184 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 4: But we talked about that all last season, like when 185 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 4: was he getting twenty carries? 186 00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 6: Coach just does not do that. 187 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 4: And I think if we look at our rushing yards 188 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 4: those first three games, if you take out the first 189 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 4: three games, it's not great either. 190 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 5: I'll give the coaches a pass on last year because 191 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 5: the offensive line did stick. But I think the offensive 192 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 5: line was much improved this year, especially in the run game, 193 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 5: because what I saw in that Oregon game was an 194 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 5: offensive line that gave Adam Muhammad Lane's the run through 195 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 5: holes where it was him one on one and he 196 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 5: made guys miss. He look better doing that. But what 197 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 5: I also saw was in the pass game. I saw 198 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 5: our offensive line have some free runners, miss some pickups, 199 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 5: miss some checks, miss some blitz assignments. So I think 200 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 5: even this year, although our offense line and it's better, 201 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 5: there's still better run blockers than they are pass blocking 202 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 5: right now. 203 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 4: My question is if you talk about the line being 204 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 4: bad last year, but why wouldn't you run the ball? 205 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 4: If your line is bad, shouldn't you run it more? 206 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 4: If your line's bad, you shouldn't be passing and get 207 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 4: keep your quarterback in trouble. 208 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 5: Well, I think sometimes, though, Mario, when it comes to 209 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 5: the pass game, you can win with more technique than 210 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 5: just you know, guys' physical ability. 211 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. 212 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 5: You can do slide protections, you can keep a tight 213 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 5: end in, you can keep it back in to give 214 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 5: the quarterback just enough time to get the pass off 215 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 5: or run block. You either win at the line of 216 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 5: scrimmage or you lose, and there's not a whole lot 217 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 5: of difference to it. So I think they the reason 218 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 5: they were able to have some success ish passing last 219 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 5: year was, you know, you run formation wise, protection wise, 220 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 5: and you know guys aren't. It's not on me to 221 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 5: just win. Every time I can get help. I can 222 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,600 Speaker 5: get slide protection or the quarterback and even check out 223 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 5: of things and go to the other direction. 224 00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 6: When you're passing more last year because you get in 225 00:10:59,559 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 6: a butt. 226 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: Yes, exactly. Part of the numbers. I just looked it up. 227 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 3: He had one hundred and forty three carries in Big 228 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 3: Ten play a year ago, ninety three this year. Seven 229 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 3: hundred and five yards rushing in the Big Ten last year, 230 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 3: three twenty six this year, So his numbers were cut 231 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 3: more than half yards and fifty less carries. Some of that, 232 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,760 Speaker 3: obviously was the fact that he was banged up against Wisconsin, 233 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,679 Speaker 3: UCLA and Oregon, but that's not an extra fifty carries 234 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 3: and one hundred. 235 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 5: I would look at the running backs as a team. Yeah, no, totally. 236 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 5: I mean not just Jonah, but yeah, you put them together. 237 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 5: What did those numbers say? 238 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 3: But the reason why I'm looking at Jonah because I 239 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 3: think if you would have told people at the start 240 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 3: of the year in July, for example, that Demon Williams, 241 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 3: Denzel Boston, Jonah Coleman have the years that they have numbers. 242 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: Wise, I would have thought that was a disappointment, Like, 243 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: are you kidding me? 244 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 6: I mean, of course this is except for test down right, But. 245 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: Jetfish is the guy. 246 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,079 Speaker 3: And this is where I just kind of wonder if 247 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 3: maybe he made a little bit of a mistake, and 248 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 3: I guess I realized why he did it right. This 249 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 3: is the nil era. Guys are leaving every year. You're 250 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 3: constantly recruiting high school players and your own players from 251 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 3: taking off. 252 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: I get it. 253 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 3: But when Will Rogers was the starting quarterback for this 254 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 3: team last year, Jed Fish was literally at a press 255 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 3: conference during the year talking about how they're gonna put 256 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 3: demand to New York. 257 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 1: He's going to be the face of the franchise. 258 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 3: He's the next great starting quarterback in Washington before there 259 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 3: was even any competition or before the guy even started 260 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 3: a game. So the pressure and the hype that was 261 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 3: built around Demon Williams was fed gasoline by the head 262 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 3: coach of the football team. 263 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 5: Well, I think certainly Jed you know, pumped him up 264 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:39,199 Speaker 5: and gave him all the accolades. But Jed knew who 265 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 5: his backup quarterback was this year, a guy by the 266 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 5: name of Kay Horton, And so who else are you 267 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,679 Speaker 5: going to pump up? You have to give that quarterback 268 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 5: that ultimate, you know, confidence and let him know he's 269 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,040 Speaker 5: the leader and understand that because he can look around 270 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 5: a quarterback room too and see that you know, there's 271 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 5: not a whole lot here. 272 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: So I'm going to have to be the guy. So 273 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 1: I think you know that was part of that. 274 00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 5: But you know, at the end of the day, demand 275 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 5: Williams has to get better between this year and next year. 276 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 5: If this offense is going to be effective, right, he's 277 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 5: going to have to be able to play well against 278 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 5: top competition. He's going to have to play well on 279 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 5: the road. He's going to have to be accurate in 280 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,440 Speaker 5: those situations. And right now, I think as a young kid, 281 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,200 Speaker 5: the pressure got to him. You know, maybe he wasn't 282 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 5: ready for all that responsibility that you're mentioning. They're softy, 283 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 5: but this offense really win as he went. The games 284 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 5: where he played well, we won. The games where he 285 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 5: didn't play well, we lost, And so there is a 286 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 5: lot of pressure on him. He's got to get better. 287 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 5: He's got to make better decisions. He's got to be 288 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,959 Speaker 5: a better pocket passer, and we have to put him 289 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 5: in positions and situations where he's not going to have 290 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,199 Speaker 5: the mistake to make and which means take some of 291 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 5: the pressure off him with a great running gay. 292 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 3: Well, okay, so all that stuff's great, right, but for 293 00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 3: demand Williams to be a better passer. He's not going 294 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 3: to wake up tomorrow girl, And he's six to three. 295 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 3: He's always going to be five foot ten, right, And 296 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 3: so that interception that you're talking about, did he even 297 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 3: see safety jetfish doing a good enough job as a 298 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 3: play caller to move him around the pocket to get 299 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 3: him alleys that he can actually see. 300 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 6: No, he's not. He's not. He's not using his weapon. 301 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:23,400 Speaker 4: We should be more throwing, more rollout passing because he's 302 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 4: not a pocket passer. I don't want to say he 303 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 4: can't see over the line. I know how it goes 304 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 4: with shorter quarterbacks and you're saying he can't see overline. 305 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 3: But that's insulting. It's not insulting. It is what it is. 306 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 3: It'd be the flat out truth. But he should be 307 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,680 Speaker 3: rolling out more. And the pass that he threw the 308 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 3: interception to. I think that happens because they're saying get 309 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 3: it to Boston, get the ball to Boston. He's gonna 310 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 3: have this mismatch, and that he did have the mismatch, 311 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,880 Speaker 3: But the safety was there the entire time, but he 312 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 3: predetermined and threw it to him. 313 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not going to speculate whether he saw him 314 00:14:55,520 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 5: or not. But where I've seen the press, I can see. 315 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 5: But I'm sitting, you know, feet up in the air. 316 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 5: I can see them saying he's quarts. 317 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: He was right in there. 318 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 5: He never once looked the other way, stepped the other way. 319 00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 5: He just dench Rent ran over there and got his 320 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 5: hands on the ball. 321 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: If he did see the safety, then why did he 322 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: throw the ball? 323 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 5: Well, again, sometimes you do. Guys do make up their mind. 324 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 5: This is where I'm going. And I've seen that. You know, 325 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 5: we see that, not just with him, We've seen it 326 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 5: with other quarterbacks and stuff. But again, my contention is 327 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 5: this goes back to the guy calling the place. You 328 00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 5: have to have some sort of like, hey, if the 329 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 5: safety squatting on this, if he's sitting there and this 330 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 5: is what you do, or this is what you go 331 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 5: to or again, I think there's still with some pressure 332 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 5: on the Mond waves this year where he to some degree, 333 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 5: you know, as a nineteen year old, you know, succumb 334 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 5: to some of the pressure. I mean I saw some 335 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 5: skip passes, some overthrows, some you know, where guys are 336 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 5: wide open where he didn't hit them. And yes, those 337 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 5: things happened. So I'm not, you know, necessarily harping on that. 338 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 5: I just think that shows that where he is right 339 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 5: now in this development, he still has to get better now. 340 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: Can he? Absolutely? 341 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 5: Like I was saying at the game, I sucked my 342 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 5: sophomore year for the University of washing Damn, That's not. 343 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 6: What I was saying. 344 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 5: I agreed, I had a I had a rough sophomore 345 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 5: year right for a lot of reasons. It wasn't just 346 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 5: football related. I was still talented and all that, but 347 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 5: I had a rough sophomore year. And my junior year 348 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 5: I had I set the record for most yards in 349 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 5: the season for Husky football. So that can still happen, 350 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 5: and I think, you know, they have to make that 351 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 5: happen if the Husky football team is going to achieve 352 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 5: the success that we're looking because ultimately, right now we're 353 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 5: in that second tier. 354 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: Of Big twelve teams. 355 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 5: We want to get to the top tier Big ten, 356 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 5: if we want to get to the top tier. If 357 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 5: we want to get to the top tier, our quarterback 358 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 5: is the one who really has to make the most 359 00:16:57,440 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 5: improved because I see a lot of things. I got 360 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 5: a list here in what's better from last year to 361 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 5: this year? Right, the O line is definitely one of them. 362 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 5: Of course, the recruiting is definitely one of them. You know, 363 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 5: I think there's a lot of things that we're better. 364 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 5: The total defense, the run defense, the pass defense have 365 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 5: all been better. And I think we have a lot 366 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 5: of pieces in most of those areas. Coming back the 367 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 5: one area where we got to grow to Moses at 368 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 5: the quarterback position. 369 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, and you might argue the head coach has 370 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 3: to grow a little bit as a party caller, right 371 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,000 Speaker 3: to fit that system and fit his pieces he's got. 372 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 3: You know, I asked you guys a couple of weeks ago, 373 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 3: when you hire a guy like Jed Fish, I think 374 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 3: you hire him for one reason because of his unique offense, Right, 375 00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 3: because he's bringing things to the table that other offensive 376 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 3: minds can't bring. Right, you're hiring McDonald for defense, You're 377 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 3: hiring Holmgrin for offense. You're hiring Pete Carroll for defense. Right, 378 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 3: this is why you bring these guys in. And if 379 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 3: your offense is going to show up in the biggest 380 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 3: games of the year and lay an egg, Now, what's 381 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 3: the point? What's the point? What is he doing that 382 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 3: is unique? Has he done anything since he's been here 383 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,439 Speaker 3: that is unique? We'll come back and chat about that. 384 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 3: Next to Husky Hawks regularis Mario Bailey look ahead to 385 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 3: the offseason.

Boys, 398 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 3: and girls, until on third and nine a Husky defense 399 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 3: decides to give up a sixty five yard catch and 400 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 3: run to Malik Benson, and you could just feel the 401 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 3: air come out of the balloon in that stadium. Man, 402 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 3: that was that was a gut punch crack. We actually thought, 403 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 3: we thought for a couple of minutes that maybe you 404 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:15,880 Speaker 3: Dub would have a shot to get the ball back 405 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 3: and win this game. 406 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, and unfortunately that that bubble was burst pretty dang fast. 407 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 5: But you know that goes back to and I hate 408 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 5: to keep beating a dead horse, but let me pull 409 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 5: my belt out and beat it a little more. Is 410 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 5: that your defense has to be perfect when your offense 411 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 5: is not playing extremely well. And the room and the 412 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 5: margin for error was really thin, and the defense had 413 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 5: done a great job up until that point, you know, 414 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 5: turning Organ drives into field goals, which you know, you 415 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 5: gotta kind of respect Organ's coach these days for taking 416 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 5: those field goals and punting the ball on fourth down 417 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 5: instead of going forward, things that he usually doesn't do 418 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 5: and gives us an opportunity, uh to to win those games. 419 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 5: But he took the three points that the defense was 420 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,919 Speaker 5: holding him to and on that one particular play, like 421 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 5: Mario said, you know, when you were gonna blitz, or 422 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 5: if you're going to fake like you're going to blitz, 423 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 5: your linebackers and everybody have to drop back to the 424 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,880 Speaker 5: right depth and make sure that they're covering those areas 425 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 5: where the receiver's going to end up. And the guy 426 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 5: got an inside release and ran up the scene kind 427 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 5: of a scene crossing, not a full crossing route, but 428 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 5: kind of into the scene, caught the ball and now 429 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 5: you got to tackle him right and when you don't, 430 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 5: you know, missing a tackle against Oregon's athletes is deadly. 431 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 5: And the guy turned it in touch down and the en 432 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 5: me and Mario watching it, all of a sudden, the 433 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,440 Speaker 5: guy went into a different gear speed. It was like whoa, whoa, 434 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 5: He turned into a whole different speed on us. 435 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: And the rest, as they say, is history. 436 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 5: And yeah, but the defense has to be perfect at 437 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 5: this point against really tough teams. And that's a lot 438 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 5: to ask. 439 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 3: Lots of thing, Mario is that overall you played twelve games, 440 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 3: eleven of the twelve you held your opponent to twenty 441 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 3: five points or less. In this day and age in 442 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,919 Speaker 3: college football, the one game you didn't is when you 443 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 3: gave up twenty six to Oregon twenty So if I 444 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 3: would have Guys, if I tell you before the season starts, 445 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 3: your defense is going to hold everybody to under twenty six, 446 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 3: and the one team that scores twenty six is the 447 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 3: Oregon Ducks, I think you would have taken twenty six 448 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 3: against Oregon when the year began. 449 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 4: Every single day you're thinking Oregon is the juggernaut on offense. 450 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 4: They scoring points, you've just seen them the week before, 451 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 4: and sc our defense did a great job the entire game. 452 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 4: Like that's one play they gave up. It's unfortunate that 453 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 4: we thought we were about to come back, but our 454 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 4: defense kept us in the game, so you can't be 455 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 4: mad at them. Like I said, I was impressed with 456 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,400 Speaker 4: Oregon attacking our corners. They're the only team I've seen 457 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 4: attack our corners. But give it up for our defense 458 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,160 Speaker 4: for the entire year. They played sound football and kept 459 00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 4: us in every game. 460 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 5: Yeah, even with that, Mario, we didn't have our best 461 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 5: or our most experienced corners all game long. We have 462 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 5: freshmen out there, and that's another bright spot that I 463 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 5: didn't put on my list here, Softy, of all the 464 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,199 Speaker 5: bright spots for you know, the program right now. We 465 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 5: played a lot of young guys, a lot of freshmen 466 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,399 Speaker 5: as sophomores, and those guys over the course of the 467 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 5: year got a lot better and made plays. Of course, 468 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 5: they had their missteps and mishaps here and there because 469 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 5: they're young, but those guys are going to be really 470 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 5: good football players. I saw some of our good defensive backs, 471 00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 5: the Dillard, Ryan Dillards and then the the the I'm sorry. 472 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: What's the young with the Clarks and Salle. 473 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 5: You know, I don't know if it's sale or sale, 474 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 5: you know, but all of those young guys played really well, 475 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 5: and I think that bodes for the future that you know, 476 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 5: this defense is going to continue to get better. 477 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 3: Well, just going back to the offense for a second, 478 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:40,679 Speaker 3: I mean, just go back to the game Mario and 479 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 3: Greg on Saturday. This is an absolute clinic in hitting 480 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 3: home runs versus hitting singles. In the passing game, Demon 481 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 3: Williams had passes of sixteen, thirteen, eleven, ten, twenty four, 482 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 3: and the twenty four came with one thirty three to 483 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 3: go in the game to Decorad Graft down twenty six 484 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,120 Speaker 3: to fourteen. So we had one play of twenty yards 485 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 3: or more, and that came in the fifty eighth minute 486 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 3: of the game, when the game was pretty much over. 487 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:10,679 Speaker 3: Down twelve. Dante Moore had passes of thirty five, twenty two, 488 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 3: thirty one, forty one, and sixty four. The thirty five 489 00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:16,199 Speaker 3: yarder came on the first drive of the game for 490 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 3: the Oregon Ducks. So what you were saying a couple 491 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,719 Speaker 3: weeks ago is that the downfield passing game is not good. 492 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 3: And people tried to argue, they tried to push you. 493 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 3: They said, hey, but look at this and look at 494 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 3: that one of the. 495 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: Guys is sitting right over here. 496 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, but you were proven right because the 497 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 3: lack of an ability Mario to stretch the field on 498 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 3: Saturday was obvious. 499 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, you look at it. 500 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 4: Our top receiver might have had twenty seven yards in 501 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 4: an entire game, and Denzel twenty five actually twenty five yards, 502 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 4: and that just shows we're not going down the field. 503 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 4: We don't have any true playmakers, anybody stretching the defense 504 00:23:55,760 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 4: with throwing hitches, slants and quick outs. And you can't 505 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 4: do that the entire game. You can't do that against 506 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 4: a great opponent of Ohio State and Michigan and Oregon. 507 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 4: You're gonna have to stress the field. You're gonna have 508 00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 4: to have some playmakers out there, and your quarterback is 509 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 4: gonna have to get it down the field. 510 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 5: And I'm not gonna let you defame my name, softy, 511 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 5: because I was clear that I was clear, and I 512 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 5: distinguished the difference between mediocre teams at home against opponents 513 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 5: that are, you know, of our caliber and really good 514 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 5: I did mark. I did say against the top teams 515 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 5: and on the road. Offensively, we aren't completing those types 516 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 5: of passes, but we we hit some long passes. We 517 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,479 Speaker 5: hit some big plays down the line. But my bigger, 518 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 5: you know, concern isn't necessarily just that. It's I'll ask 519 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 5: you this if you go back, and what was Adam 520 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,160 Speaker 5: Muhammett's longest run on the day on Saturday. 521 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: I think it was eighteen yards. I got to bring 522 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: it up in double check for you. 523 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 5: Yeah, But my point is is some of his runs 524 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 5: were better than our longest two, which it's better than 525 00:24:58,160 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 5: some of our longest passes. So we should have just 526 00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 5: kept running the damn ball. 527 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 4: Biggest disappointment in the game is Adam Muhammad didn't get 528 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 4: more carries. I watched that game again last night, and 529 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 4: they could not stop that young man. 530 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 6: And that was the best he's ever run. Even on 531 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 6: the interception. 532 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,199 Speaker 4: He took us all the way down the field and 533 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 4: then we got cute again and through the ball, and 534 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 4: then even in the third quarter we put Jonah back. 535 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 4: In no disrespect to Jonah, but the hot hend is 536 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 4: Adam Muhammad. He should have got the ball at least 537 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,960 Speaker 4: twenty times because they never screen five. 538 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, well then why didn't he Because the coach calls 539 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 5: the place and in his DNA there's this chromosome in 540 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 5: his d DNA that says past past past PPP. 541 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: He doesn't have any r T d B in his DNA. 542 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 5: Run the damn ball is not in his blood streamers DNA, 543 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 5: it's PPP. 544 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 1: Wow. And that's that's the bottom. I mean, that's that's 545 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 1: his Philosophy's who he is. 546 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, and you know he's you know, you got all 547 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 5: the you know, crazy people on the internet saying, you know, 548 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 5: we're gonna let's go get an offensive coordinator and hired 549 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 5: all that I think coach fish, you know, and you know, 550 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,359 Speaker 5: whether he played football or not, to me, that's not 551 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 5: a big deal. But his enjoyment of the game of 552 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 5: football is calling the plays right, being in there, you know, 553 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:18,919 Speaker 5: and having his hands on it and all of that. 554 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 5: That's what he likes to do. So he's gonna always 555 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 5: be the play caller. And he's not the type of 556 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 5: pay caller Mario that would ever have a Greg Lewis 557 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 5: on his team and hand the ball off to him 558 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 5: twenty five times. 559 00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 4: Okay, but why take Adam Muhammad out? He's averaging seven 560 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:34,560 Speaker 4: yards of carry. 561 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 1: I'm trying to ask me to explain it. No, I'm 562 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: not saying that. 563 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 4: But he put Jonah in, who's hurt, and he's averaging 564 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 4: two yards of carry. I understand, this guy's the seniors, 565 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 4: his last game, but we're trying to win the game. 566 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 4: The hot hend is Adam Muhammad. Why do you bring 567 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 4: Jonah in? He's averaging two yards of carry in that game? 568 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 3: And I look, I mean, I get what you're saying 569 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 3: about who he is, and who he is has gotten 570 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 3: him a long way, right. He's gone from a guy 571 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 3: that played tennis, never played in high school football, and 572 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 3: never played college football, never played in the NFL. Basically 573 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 3: begged Steve Spurrier for a gig and did everything he 574 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 3: had to do right to work. I mean, give him 575 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,480 Speaker 3: credit for working his way up. But that's all good 576 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,920 Speaker 3: and dandy when you have the pieces to do what 577 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 3: you're talking about wanting to do. When you don't have 578 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:21,120 Speaker 3: the pieces and it's clear that you have a hot 579 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 3: hand at running back, maybe you just shell the aspirations 580 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 3: down the road for one day, absolutely, and just go 581 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 3: with what's working. 582 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm looking up like guys. 583 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 3: You know, Petros brought this up a few months ago 584 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,479 Speaker 3: that head coaches in college football that call plays do 585 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 3: not win national titles. 586 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 1: They just don't. 587 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 3: The last guy to do it was Jimbo Fisher when 588 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:44,800 Speaker 3: he was Florida State's head coach. Jamis Wins twelve years ago. 589 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 3: Is the last time it happened? And I asked, you 590 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 3: had earlier in the year. I said, would you ever 591 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 3: consider giving up play calling? And he said no. He 592 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 3: said that's kind of who I am and what I do, 593 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:56,879 Speaker 3: And is it time for him to maybe reconsider that? 594 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: Greg, It might be time, but it's not going to happen. 595 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 5: So, I mean, we can waste twenty minutes on the 596 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 5: air talking about yeah, but it's absolutely not going to happen. 597 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 5: So you know that that's who, like we said, that's 598 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 5: who Jed is, and that's. 599 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: How he rolls. 600 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 5: And you know whether or not it's Adam Muhammet or 601 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 5: Jonah Coleman, you know, it doesn't even matter Mario because 602 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,120 Speaker 5: at the end of the day, he's going to throw 603 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 5: the football, you know. 604 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 1: And what's the name. 605 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 5: I'm sorry, Jonah Coleman could have come in and been dynamic, 606 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 5: but guess what, he'd have got two or three carries anyway, 607 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 5: and then they would have went back to throw the ball. 608 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: Let's get a break. 609 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 3: We'll come back and talk about what this team needs 610 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:41,840 Speaker 3: to do over the offseason.

We did mention 645 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 3: the Nojack Harris is in the portal. Signing day is tomorrow. 646 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 3: Huskies have the fifteenth best class in America according to 647 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 3: two four seven right now, so we'll see what tomorrow 648 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 3: brings with you, Dub. 649 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: But now we're into a roster rebuilding, right. 650 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 3: I mean, you can talk all you want about the 651 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 3: one game that's left to play, but I think the 652 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 3: majority of Husky fans are talking about what this team 653 00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 3: needs to do over the offseason to improve this football team. 654 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 3: A lot of guys coming back, tons of guys coming back, 655 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,480 Speaker 3: But what's on the shopping list you think for a 656 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 3: Jetfish and Company that said this offseason. 657 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 5: Well, if you're going to start with his specialty, which 658 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 5: is the offensive side of the ball, when I said, 659 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 5: you know, it's the improvement of the quarterback and finding 660 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 5: a decent backup just in case anything goes wrong there, 661 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 5: because right now we don't have a backup quarterback on 662 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 5: the roster. And you know, I think Denzel Boston walked 663 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 5: with the team, so this might have been his final game. 664 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 1: Should he come back, I I think he should because. 665 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 5: I'm a Husky fan. I would love to see him 666 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 5: back in the Husky uniform. If his goal, I think, yeah, 667 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 5: if I'm his dad and he wants to be the 668 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 5: best wide receiver and go as high in the draft 669 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 5: as possible, he comes back with a good nil deal 670 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 5: that's secured because now you can get paid to be 671 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 5: in college. So yeah, but I think you if you're 672 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 5: the Husky team and you know that he might leave, 673 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 5: you have to make sure that you go out in 674 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 5: the portal. They got some good recruits out they're bringing 675 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 5: in wide receiver. But I'm going to go out in 676 00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 5: the portal and find a really good wide receiver. Uh 677 00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 5: So somebody be that number one guy, because I still 678 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,800 Speaker 5: think Desmond Roebuck and you know, the rest of the 679 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 5: guys aren't number one receivers. I think they are number 680 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 5: two guys. So you go out and find your number 681 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 5: one wide receiver. And then on the other side, and 682 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 5: there's a couple of holes you plug in on the 683 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 5: offensive line because I think they're your pretty solid. But 684 00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 5: on the defensive side of the ball, you got to 685 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 5: get you a monster up front. You need somebody who's 686 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 5: chomping at the bed, who's collapse the pocket from the middle, 687 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 5: and then you got to get both edge rushers. You know, 688 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 5: at least one of those guys on the edge, who 689 00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 5: again is an athletic pass rusher, not just you know, 690 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 5: your your der fy who's more of a you know, 691 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 5: bull rusher, but an athletic guy. And I think your 692 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 5: linebacker's your set, and I think defensive backs are set. 693 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 5: So to me, it's that defensive monster on the edge 694 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,959 Speaker 5: in the middle, and then a couple of guys plugging 695 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 5: play on the offensive line, a number one receiver in 696 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 5: a backup quarterback. 697 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: That's a lot. That's a lot. Not these days. 698 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,959 Speaker 5: Though not these days, you might get the those freshman 699 00:32:40,040 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 5: wide receivers. I've seen a couple of great ones come 700 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 5: in and start and be the number one guy right away. 701 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 5: Did Ohio State did it at Alabama, So they got 702 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 5: some good guys on the line. But I think, you know, 703 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 5: you want to find an experienced guy. But it sounds 704 00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,440 Speaker 5: like a lot. But in today's football, because of the 705 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 5: portal and all of that, it's not as much as 706 00:32:56,360 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 5: it would have been in the past. 707 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 3: Well, you can get it. It just shows you how 708 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 3: many holes they still have, I guess is the point. 709 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 3: But what should Denzel Boston do. You're the wide receiver 710 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 3: in the group. You tell us he should stay. 711 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 4: And the only reason I would say he should stay 712 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 4: is because he can get in IO money and what 713 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 4: Greg said, he could be the best receiver coming out, 714 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 4: and he has his quarterback. They have some continuity together. 715 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 4: They like each other. His quarterback throws to him. Coach 716 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 4: Fish knows him. He could be what we were hoping 717 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 4: he could be this year, He could be that next year, 718 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 4: and just get it together. 719 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:28,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, I just think guys, look in the end, 720 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 3: they got to take advantage of what they have, and 721 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 3: that's say athletic quarterback that not a lot of teams 722 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,400 Speaker 3: can match. And thought, I thought, honestly that every game 723 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 3: the Huskies played this year that there was a good 724 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 3: chance that Demon Williams was going to be the most 725 00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 3: athletic player on the field, and that just never materialized. 726 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 3: And again I asked, you, guys going to a break, 727 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 3: because what is unique about Jed Fish's offense? Right, Like 728 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 3: we all have these memories of Ryan Grubb calling an 729 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 3: offense with a doonsay and Polk and McMillan running wide 730 00:33:57,360 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 3: open Jonathan Smith and the offense he called when he 731 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 3: was coaching for Chris Peterson back in twenty sixteen. What 732 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 3: is Jedfish doing offensively that you find to be unique? 733 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 4: I haven't seen it yet, and I think just looking 734 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 4: at where we're coming from, coming to our whole team 735 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 4: was disrupted. 736 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 6: He had to bring in all new pieces. 737 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 4: I think the third year is where we should see something, 738 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 4: but I haven't seen it yet. Last year we had 739 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 4: Rogers here and we got to see demon at the 740 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 4: end of the season. I was hoping we would see 741 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 4: more of demand this year. But I'm hoping maybe we 742 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 4: get a few linemen pieces, some line, maybe another weapon 743 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 4: out there that maybe next year will be the year. 744 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 5: I can't even begin to compare him to Ryan Grubb, 745 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 5: not because Ryan Grubb is so much of a master 746 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 5: over him. Ryan Grubb had three of the greatest receivers 747 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 5: we've ever had here, not I mean really really good. Yeah, 748 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 5: and the best arm we've ever had here at this institution. 749 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,320 Speaker 1: And the best offensive line and the best offensive line 750 00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 1: all of that. 751 00:34:57,960 --> 00:34:59,799 Speaker 5: So I'm not going to compare him to that guy, 752 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,919 Speaker 5: because I think the variables are completely different. But here's 753 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 5: where I think me and Mario both agree. I was, 754 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 5: you know, chit chatting with some folks over social media too, 755 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 5: and what I said was, this is year three. Now 756 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 5: we're going into Jedfish's third season. Right, he started with nothing. 757 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 5: He built up the first year, right, we ended up 758 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,439 Speaker 5: six and seven or whatever. So he did a decent job. 759 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,640 Speaker 5: This year, we took a step got a little better. 760 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 5: Now he has a quarterback that it's his guy that 761 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,600 Speaker 5: he picked, that has a full year starting under him. 762 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 5: He's got to unleash this guy like you talk about 763 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 5: softye and make him into the quarterback that is going 764 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 5: to make his offense go. This year, we will see 765 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 5: what Jedfish is supposed to be all about. There's no 766 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:43,240 Speaker 5: excuses anymore. He's got a decent, good enough offensive line, 767 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 5: he's got the quarterback that he chose, His system is 768 00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 5: in place. So if we're going to see something softy, 769 00:35:49,320 --> 00:35:50,879 Speaker 5: we should see it this year. And if we don't, 770 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 5: then I think the jury, you know, can go in 771 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 5: and start debating and deliberating. 772 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 3: Well, I think there's already some criticism because it's college football, right, 773 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 3: come on, you know, just the way fans are and 774 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 3: I love that about the passion of college football fans. 775 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 3: But next year, I mean the gloves are off, right, 776 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 3: like this is now you you've you've been here for 777 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 3: three years. 778 00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: Now you've built the thing back up. 779 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 3: You're there's no more breaks, right, There's no more passes 780 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:15,719 Speaker 3: versus you know what you had in year one when 781 00:36:15,760 --> 00:36:18,280 Speaker 3: you took over a mess.
