1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: All right, let me start with the injuries. Uh Ogletree 2 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: so he he woke up this morning. He had some 3 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: soreness like in his back that affected his foot and 4 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,720 Speaker 1: he really um he tried like heck to go. We 5 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: couldn't go, so um so he was just out there 6 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: in emergency. He saw Slaton got rolled up on a 7 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:19,639 Speaker 1: little bit of his knees and ankle, but he was 8 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: back out there. Mors I got the concussion, and then 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: we had a couple of guys that were in and out. 10 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: So um hard fought games. So I think it's we 11 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,840 Speaker 1: go through this. There may be a little bit of 12 00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: something as we go. We'll just see how the injuries 13 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: play out. But uh, I told I told the team, I, 14 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 1: you know, this is the time of year when UH 15 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,559 Speaker 1: teams can quit fighting. And it's pretty obvious to me 16 00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 1: that that UH our guys didn't. They fought hard. We 17 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,560 Speaker 1: made enough place to win, certainly um, you know, having 18 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: to do it in overtime, but we fought hard, We 19 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,959 Speaker 1: made enough plays, and I think there were some standout 20 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: performances that say and what I've been trying to say 21 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: all along, that the future is bright with some of 22 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 1: these young players and when they're involved in games like this, 23 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: just like when you're in close games where there's not 24 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: a lot of scoring, there's something to be learned from it. 25 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,400 Speaker 1: And so the young players that were out there today, 26 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,960 Speaker 1: we'll learn um from what happened, and you know, we'll 27 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: be able to enjoy the outcome. So with that'll take 28 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: your questions. We feel like Daniel just overall all the 29 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: injury and the way he played. Yeah, I thought he 30 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: you know, he played pretty heroic. You know, there's a 31 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: couple of times when the clock in my head goes 32 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: off a little quicker than his, you know, which he'll learn. 33 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: But then there's he made some great throws. Uh that 34 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: last third and long throw in in in Uh, the 35 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: overtime period was what was really good. And he was 36 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: good with some of his short and intermediate stuff. They 37 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: were they were trying to take away that we're on 38 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: and play, you know, sort of a cushion in the back, 39 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: so we had to be more patient with the throws, 40 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: which I thought he was very accurate with um And 41 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: I thought the guys up front battled when Ramors went 42 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: out and the Gates came in, played another good game 43 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: in a backup role. But I thought Daniel played pretty 44 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: heroic game, did a heck of a job. No, No, 45 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: that I wasn't speaking about that play. That was a 46 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,079 Speaker 1: great throw. Our clocks were set the same that one 47 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: um just earlier in the game, you know. And what 48 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: happens is, you know, he's he's pretty heroic in his 49 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 1: attempt to make every play, and as he goes along, 50 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: he'll know at times when it's right and when it's 51 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: not right. And I think he's improved um throughout UM 52 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: in terms of that. The thing I got most upset 53 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,839 Speaker 1: was when he scrambled and fumbled it. You know, he's 54 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: spinning like he's a running back. You know, don't do that, 55 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 1: get what you can't get down. So I'll holler at 56 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: him for that later. Well, otherwise, you know, five touchdowns 57 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: and certainly a touchdown and overtime, maybe I won't holler 58 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: at him. I just talked to him, how about the 59 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 1: how who wants to quit forever yard? And why would you? 60 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: I'm just saying that, why would you? You just teach 61 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: him to be smart? It's like I always it's it's 62 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 1: like when you're coaching Little league, right, I used to 63 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 1: coach little league a little bit you can deal with 64 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: the guy that gets upset or a kid that gets 65 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: upset and throws his bat because he cares, right and 66 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: he's trying to do the right thing. The guy who 67 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,399 Speaker 1: just drops his bat and walks back to the dugout. 68 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 1: You know, Daniel cares and he's trying to make plays, 69 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 1: and so we'll teach him all the particulars as he goes. Yea, yeah, no, Um, 70 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: you know, he's sort of He sort of alluded to 71 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 1: the fact after last week that he's starting to get 72 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: his groove back. So, yeah, pretty good game. He and 73 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: Daniel had an outstanding game for Daniel, finally a game 74 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: without Oh, I don't know. I'm sure that's not what 75 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: he's thinking about right now. I think it's important if 76 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: you take care of the ball, and I think as 77 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: time goes on, he'll get better and better at it. 78 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: In all situations. This was the first time they came together. 79 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: Where where does that mean for them? Well, I think 80 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,960 Speaker 1: it's good for us, you know, and we get these 81 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: things lined up a little better, you know, getting into 82 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: next year. Um, you know, we got a chance to 83 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: do some good things. Good name of the progress he 84 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,279 Speaker 1: showed you November before he had. How much further along 85 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: is he right now? For the kid showed up? Happer me, 86 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: I mean light years right. He's gonna have a moment 87 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: in the middle of February somewhere. He may be back 88 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 1: home or sitting on his couch up here in Hoboken, 89 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: we hawking, wherever the heck he lives, and he'll like, 90 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 1: holy smokes, what happened to me? You know, I have 91 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: one of those moments, because that's what happens to rookies 92 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: and m and I think he'll only he's only going 93 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 1: to get better because he's a very, very talented guy 94 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 1: that works hard, and he had a good performance today. 95 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: You guys talked a lot about checking off boxes with him, 96 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: this this um taking a team in over time for 97 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: game with him, school check off you know, quarterbacks always 98 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: big out a static come back. Yeah, we'll check that box. 99 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: He did that, and that's hope, hopefully, you know, hopefully 100 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,559 Speaker 1: at some point you'll be able to check that box 101 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: a few times in his career. Did you change your mind? Season? 102 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, no, Well it was a sixty three 103 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: yard and number fifteen was sitting under the goal post, 104 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: and you've got a bunch of alignement that would have 105 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: to cover that, and I didn't want that to happen. Um. 106 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: I had a little flashback, but didn't Something like that 107 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: happened in Alabama Auburn game or something. So I and 108 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: as you can imagine, the headsets were blowing up, and 109 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: we just decided that the best thing to do was 110 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,720 Speaker 1: to try hail Mary. So we had time outs, a 111 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: lot of smart people trying to advise me, and I 112 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: think we did the right thing there, which one U 113 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 1: if we didn't get it, UM would probably kicked the 114 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,039 Speaker 1: field goal. I would imagine, I don't know, don't hold 115 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: me to that. We scored, So whatever the analytics guy 116 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: said we should have done, I don't think important. He's 117 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: won some games, but it's been a while. Getting a 118 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: win is important for all of us, right, and you 119 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: can substitute Daniel's name was Sa Kwan or solder Mine anybody. 120 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 1: Getting a win is important because that's why we do this, 121 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: and to do it on the road and you know, 122 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: get ahead, get tied, and then come back and do 123 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: it and over time it's good for everybody. I'm happy 124 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 1: for our fans. Um.

Coaches don't think like that. That whole 131 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: you know, all the off season stuff figures it's self 132 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: out in the off season, right I mean, um, we 133 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: don't worry about that.

And that's what we 136 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 1: worry about today. Next week we'll do the same thing. 137 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: And then we get to the off season. We're gonna 138 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: all have a lot of time to discuss what the 139 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: heck goes on.

And there were a couple of plays 143 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: in there that obviously extended that drive, um that we 144 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: would have liked back, But our guys continue to fight 145 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: and we found a way to win.
