1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: Good group this week Buffalo very talented specialists. Uh. Stephen Hauska, 2 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: veteran kick has been around for a long time, has 3 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 1: done a solid job for him, kicks off extremely well. Um, 4 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 1: Corey horse Ki, Uh, young guy Lefty. Well, we've run 5 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: against the left He is a bunch here coming up, 6 00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 1: so we gotta do a great job of fielding the 7 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,800 Speaker 1: ball with him. And obviously in their return game, they 8 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: got Andre Roberts who's banged up a little bit. But 9 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: if he's back, I mean he's as scary as any 10 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:38,279 Speaker 1: returner in the league. So uh. And if he's not 11 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,839 Speaker 1: back there they've got Micah Hyde and you know, they 12 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: got some other other guys Asai Mackenzie, very very capable. Uh. 13 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: So we just got to go out there and do 14 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,880 Speaker 1: our jobs and obviously, uh, take care of the things 15 00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 1: we need to take care of. You go get a win. 16 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: You guys to range at the end of the first half. 17 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: Very uh. You know, he hit one from sixty one. 18 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: I think during pregame, Um, indoors, I put him against 19 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: you know anything. I mean, it's just very talented guy. 20 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: But you know, situations, just the situation calls for it. 21 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: Then we'll go how much that was right around where 22 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: it was. Yeah, I was just waiting on the word, 23 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 1: you know, I was waiting on the question to be asked. 24 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:31,120 Speaker 1: You know. Now I think coach was I think he 25 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 1: was more focused on trying to get a play. Um. 26 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 1: He knows Aldre's range. We talked about all the time before, 27 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,759 Speaker 1: you know, before the game, what his range is. So 28 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: I mean that's not that wasn't an issue. I think 29 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: he was thinking of more kind of play we can 30 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: get to get it closer and then kick a field 31 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: as far as its range obviously, I mean bardoor. Yeah, Yeah, 32 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: it's all. It's always it varies based upon the win, 33 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: you know, in direction that you're going. Obviously indoors it's 34 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: a little different. But whenever we always come up, always 35 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: have a number in my head because offensive coordinators and 36 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 1: play calls are always want to know, okay, what number where? 37 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: What do we gotta get to? You know, especially in 38 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: those situations, those two many situations you know where they 39 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: need to push the ball down to. If you have 40 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: to do those, you know you lost to Carolina lest year, 41 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: the guy when we can get yep, be all right 42 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: with trying one of those, especially the words you said, yeah, Yeah, Yeah, 43 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: I wouldn't have an issue with it. You know, the 44 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: thing you run up against is, okay, is he is 45 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: he strong enough to get the ball obviously through the 46 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 1: goal post, But you don't want to put yourself in 47 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: the situation where you're giving up potentially a cheap score 48 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: where you got your field goal team out on the 49 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: field and they have a returner back there and the 50 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 1: ball short, you know what I'm saying. So those are 51 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: things you also got away too, as as you as 52 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: you look at those long field goals and you see 53 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: it all the time, guys return long field goals at 54 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 1: the end of a half trying to you know, trying 55 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: to steal some points and end up giving up seven 56 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: as supposed to getting three. If he's active, when he 57 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: definitely played, you know, um, you know, we would definitely 58 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: use t J. If he's in there, and uh, you know, 59 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 1: he's a talented kid, very reliable and uh you know 60 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: if he's if he's up, we we use everybody in 61 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: the roster. You know, we're gonna get something out of 62 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: all of them, you know. So it's just a matter 63 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: of him, you know, getting back in and getting acclimated 64 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: and getting back going. He did a good job. You know, 65 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: he's a young kid. You know, he's he got he 66 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: has to. You know, the cash mechanic thing is is 67 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: it's still something that he's working on. But every week, 68 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: you know, he just has to get better than Every 69 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: situation for him is a new situation. I mean, when 70 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: you look at that stadium, he's never been in a 71 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: place like that before. Topeka, Kansas, Washburn University didn't look 72 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: like that, you know, so it was it was definitely 73 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: an eye opening experience for him. But I think as 74 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: he gets, as he gets going and we look forward 75 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: the great things from from core. He took a couple 76 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: of sort of deep layer in the game. And you're 77 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: farther behind, you be more aggressive. Word is that always 78 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: an option? You know? I mean it's a change basically. 79 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 1: I mean, if it's a situation where we're you know 80 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 1: we're behind, you know we're gonna try and make a play, 81 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: you know, especially if we're to three scores behind. I mean, 82 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: we're gonna trying to make a play. But again, it's 83 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: it's a it's a catch mechanic thing. You know, you 84 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: don't ever want to catch the ball moving backwards, and 85 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 1: you know you want to catch it moving forward and 86 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: you know that kind of stuff. So it's just, you know, 87 00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: he's a rookie. He's just like any other rookie in 88 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: any other spot. You know, they're gonna have growing pains, 89 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: you know, from the quarterback to the corners, to the 90 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: back linebackers, a rookie offensive left tackle, it's the same thing. 91 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: They all just you know, every situation for him is news. 92 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: So he's got to make sure he has to learn 93 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: from what he did wrong right, and then correct it 94 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: so he can have that wisdom moving forward. What happened 95 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 1: on that halo violation, you just not see No, no, 96 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 1: he saw he uh he he tried to push the 97 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: other guy into him, their guy, and he did. The 98 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 1: guy did a good job just kind of sliding by. 99 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: You know, it happens. You know, a guy gets a 100 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,440 Speaker 1: penalty playing hard. I struggle with getting on it, you 101 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like it'd be different if a 102 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 1: guy has no awareness about what's going on and he's 103 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: you know, he just makes a dumb mistake. That's different. 104 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: But when you got a guy that's playing hard and 105 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: he's hustling, you know, it's football. This ain't tennis and 106 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: ain't you know, it ain't track. You know, you're gonna 107 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: have some contact at some point in time, and sometimes 108 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: there's some inadvertent contact. You know. Yeah, he he did 109 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: a good job. You know, Riley's getting better. He is 110 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: a you know again, he's a young guy. You know. Yeah, 111 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: he's in his third year, but he's a young guy. 112 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: And you know, these especially specialists, it takes them years, 113 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: a lot of them to figure out who they are. 114 00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: You know, I had a guy that coach chair a 115 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: long time, I'm ago. It took him, he said, into 116 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: year nine. His name was Jeff Fiagels. Took him a 117 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: year nine to really find out what his routine was 118 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: and who he was as a punter. Right now, he 119 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,360 Speaker 1: played another you know, ten eleven years after that, but 120 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: it took him nine years to figure out really who 121 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: he was. You know, So does everybody get that amount 122 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: of time? No? Right, But that's just the reality of 123 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: these guys are always evolving, They're always trying to find 124 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 1: ways to get better. And Riley is is in that 125 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: process now, you know, and hopefully it takes him quicker 126 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: than nine years nine. Yeah, exactly. Well, an Tonio be 127 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: more in the rotation at Cans Uh, we'll see, you know, 128 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: it just depends on what happens with him on defense, 129 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: and Antonio is always going to be a guy that's 130 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: an option for us, you know, at gunner, regardless of 131 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 1: what he's doing on on defense because of his his ability, 132 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: uh to play the position, you know, And obviously it's 133 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: you know, we're we're at a at a point right 134 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: now to where we just gotta be smart with him. Yeah. 135 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: Part of the decision with Corey as a kid, return 136 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 1: him and just Cody has kind of got such a 137 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: big rowing offense I started taking off the table. Uh. 138 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,239 Speaker 1: You know again, I think I think more than anything, 139 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: I know who Cody is as a returner, and I 140 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 1: think when you have a guy like Corey with the 141 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: ability that he has, He's a young guy with good speed, 142 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: that's strong. He just he has the ability to take 143 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 1: it to the house, you know, and we want to 144 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 1: make sure that we nurture that and bring him along 145 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: so on the back end of the season when we're 146 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: fighting for something, we got him there and he's a 147 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: playmaker for us and not just a guy who's trying 148 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: to figure it out.
