The 65 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 1: approach of the team has always been to put past 66 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: successes behind you very quickly. How long did it take after, 67 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: you know, coming back from a loss in the Super 68 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: Bowl this year?

So some coaching changes 75 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: this year too. Yeah, we've had some coaching changes, but 76 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: you know, just like every other team, there's always a turnover, 77 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 1: uh and you know in coaching staff, players as part 78 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: of this business. And you know, now we're more focused 79 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: on who we have here and who's here right now 80 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: and who's gonna help us and how I'm focused on 81 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: how I'm gonna help our team.
