1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: What's your message to the fans after a performance like

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 1: this and a one in five close.

3
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 2: To the season. Yeah, it's just disappointing. It's disappointing the

4
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 2: way we finished our season. Obviously, it's it's definitely not

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 2: good enough. You know, things start with me, and I

6
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 2: gotta make sure that you know, I'm holding myself accountable

7
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: and I'm doing all I can to you know, help

8
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:26,600
Speaker 2: our football team win on and off the football field.

9
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 2: But just not good enough.

10
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,120
Speaker 1: What in terms of run defense, where there's some things

11
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,760
Speaker 1: today even pinpoint that led to Henry and Spears having

12
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: such a good day.

13
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 2: I mean, and not until I really dive into the tape,

14
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 2: but you know, obviously we had mistackles again and some

15
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: of the same self inflicted you know, gap integrity rules

16
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: things like that I I I would I would venture

17
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,160
Speaker 2: to say would show up today. But you know, until

18
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 2: we really dive into the tape, it's it's hard to

19
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 2: you know, fully comment on that.

20
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 1: The missus Trevor had was that lack of practice time

21
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: you think for the last few weeks or anything that

22
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: you didn't need.

23
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 2: I mean, it it could be you know, it could

24
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 2: be uh, but you know those are those are obviously

25
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,760
Speaker 2: plays that he knows that that he can make, and

26
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: and just unfortunate at the end, we're just you know,

27
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: a couple inches away from either either scoring or catching

28
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,479
Speaker 2: that deep all at the end. But you know, it's

29
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 2: all something we have to process now moving forward.

30
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 1: The sequence on goal line third one, uh, the throw

31
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,919
Speaker 1: and then and then the sneak. Are are you hopeful

32
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,640
Speaker 1: that next year like these guys can generate more of

33
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: a push.

34
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,039
Speaker 2: It seems like a short yardage was an issue all year. Yeah,

35
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 2: those are all things that we'll have to take a

36
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 2: look at the spring.

37
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 1: I don't love you're as old got in here, but

38
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: the field goal the.

39
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I you know, at that point it you

40
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 2: know where it was in the game, the three points

41
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 2: really didn't matter. You were gonna need a touchdown at

42
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: some point. So you get the touchdown on the two

43
00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 2: point right there, and you're you're back in the game.

44
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 2: That where do you mention? Yeah, you're a feeling right

45
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 2: now after that. I mean me personally, it's just I'm

46
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: I'm frustrated, I'm disappointed, I'm mad, angry. You know, my

47
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: heart hurts. Obviously for the players coaches involved, there's they've

48
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 2: they've they've worked their tails off, but you know it's

49
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 2: today's game was sort of our season in a nutshell. Really.

50
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 2: The mistakes, the penalties, the turnovers, mistackles, and those are

51
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 2: all things that you know, hurt us, you know down

52
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: the stretch. Is it more? Do you made a more frustration?

53
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's I think it's the disappointment. Honestly,

54
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 2: I know we're a good football team, you know. Uh,

55
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 2: I see it during the week and how the guys

56
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 2: prepare and and I I gotta look at why it

57
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 2: doesn't show up on game day, and those are all

58
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 2: things that I'll I'll take a look at, you know

59
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 2: in the coming weeks. That the last six weeks felt

60
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 2: like they were just looking the first mark and then

61
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 2: would never be able to.

62
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 3: Find more how to get that sets too, cause they

63
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 3: seem to find it last year.

64
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's I think that's accurate. But you know,

65
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 2: we thing is and you know, you can't sit around

66
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 2: and wait for a spark. You got you gotta be

67
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 2: the spark, right that's either that's either me being it

68
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 2: or Josh being it, or Trevor being it or something.

69
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 2: And you know, and then then your team. You know, catches,

70
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 2: fire and and those are all that's all part of

71
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 2: learning how to win, learning how to do things right,

72
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 2: you know, repeatedly week in and week out, and and

73
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 2: it's a long season, and I know there's gonna be

74
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 2: there's gonna be losses during the year. I mean, you're

75
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: gonna lose a game. You're gonna might lose a player,

76
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 2: you know, the injury and things like that. But uh,

77
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 2: it doesn't change you know, your attitude and your mentality

78
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: towards towards trying to win games.

79
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: What put into the uh you and I apologize to

80
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: you guys, just uh of the Trevor stretching the arm

81
00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 1: out for their something. You feel like he didn't because

82
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: of his length that he could get there.

83
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 2: You know it was a full yard ago. Yeah, I mean,

84
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 2: you know, Trevor's trying to make a play. Obviously he

85
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 2: had success in the past on it. You know, just

86
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: came up, came up inch of short. But you know,

87
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 2: can't fault him for trying to make a play.

88
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: Was it was?

89
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 3: It was that the call play the get go or

90
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,919
Speaker 3: is it something that you went to at the line

91
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 3: because he.

92
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 2: Saw something, he saw something. It wasn't an actual play call,

93
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 2: but it he saw something there and he had an

94
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,120
Speaker 2: opportunity to uh sneak it and and you know, with

95
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 2: his length usually uh usually that that uh that works.

96
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,239
Speaker 1: Church. What was the uh what was the single biggest

97
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,280
Speaker 1: issue this season and kept you guys out of the playoffs?

98
00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 2: Gosh it, I don't think there was one single issue.

99
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 2: I think there there's multiple issues. I I look at

100
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,760
Speaker 2: you know, we we talked a lot all season, you know, execution,

101
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 2: you know, third down, red zone, You look at the turnovers,

102
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 2: you know versus the the takeaways, you know, the penalties.

103
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 2: All those things just just add up, right, So there's

104
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 2: there's multiple things. I think that we just didn't play

105
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 2: clean football games and and down the stretch. I think

106
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 2: that was our you know, the amount of turnovers we

107
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 2: had in the last four or five games. You know,

108
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: those things add up and you just can't you can't

109
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 2: give your opponents that many opportunities in in games. You

110
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 2: just you just can't. It's hard to overcome. And and

111
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 2: you know, so those there there's I think there's a

112
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: few things you can really kind of pinpoint, Doug.

113
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:50,360
Speaker 3: Last season, you guys had a you know, an ability

114
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 3: to finish right, like down the stretch of last season.

115
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 3: This year, if you guys aren't able to to have

116
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,960
Speaker 3: that for some reason despite having really the the same personnel,

117
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 3: how do you maybe make sense of that just not

118
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 3: being able to finish and execute when when you do

119
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 3: have like the same cast the guys that we're able

120
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 3: to do.

121
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 2: It last season. Well, y, y, you gotta remember this

122
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 2: is this is a new this is a new year.

123
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 2: This isn't last year. You know, yah. Teams we play

124
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: are good football teams. You know, they they get they

125
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,520
Speaker 2: get paid to stop us, and we get paid to

126
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 2: you know, stop them, and and and move the football

127
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 2: and and vice versa. And you know, I, I it's

128
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 2: you gotta take everything, and y, you gotta it's it's

129
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 2: it's kind of case by case, right, it's year by year.

130
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: It's game by game. This is a week to week business.

131
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 2: And you know, it's it's how well can you perform

132
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:55,159
Speaker 2: for three hours on a Sunday afternoon? Right? And then y,

133
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 2: you put that one behind you and you go to

134
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 2: the next one. You put that behind you and you

135
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 2: go to the next one. And we didn't do that

136
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 2: consistently enough, right, And and it goes back to the

137
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 2: the penalties and the turnovers. You can't you can't. You

138
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 2: won't be consistent if you don't get that fixed, right.

139
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 2: If you if you don't stop the run or at

140
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 2: least slower run run team down right, you just can't

141
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 2: gain the consistency you want. It always puts you behind.

142
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 2: And again, those are all things that we need to

143
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 2: and I need to look at and moving forward.

144
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 1: How difficult is the last peyer sort of figure out

145
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,200
Speaker 1: how much of it is execution by the players, how

146
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: much of it is system and coaching, and figure out

147
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: exactly what you have to do to fix.

148
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,560
Speaker 2: This for next season? Well, I think I think it's

149
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,600
Speaker 2: a little bit of everything. But again it just comes

150
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 2: down to now, you know, taking time and going back

151
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,400
Speaker 2: through everything and and and really studying it and evaluating it.

152
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 2: And I I I think it's you know, as coaches,

153
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 2: our biggest what we need to do is we need

154
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 2: to commune kate right with with our players and make

155
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 2: sure they understand the game plan or the technique or

156
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 2: or the scheme for that week. And then it's the

157
