Speaker 1: to be able to win at the high level that

15
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: I did when I came here as a young player

16
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: kind of set the standard for me. You know.

17
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,840

00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,520
Speaker 1: Oh definitely, definitely it was. I mean, in his eyes,

20
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,400
Speaker 1: it was always the joy that I love lining up

Speaker 2: With him on the practice. Was there a moment where

35
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 2: you felt like, you know, I belong now with him

36
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 2: out that you know, where he showed you that you

37
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 2: had respect?

38
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: Definitely. I mean just a lot of times being on

00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: Oh, they're competing, they're competing. It's it's an honor to

53
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 1: watch them. To sit back and see them grow, you know,

54
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: from the coming out playing last year, getting some time

55
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 1: under the belt. Uh, and they're building on it. They're

62
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 1: our kids, that's a little easy for them to do.

63
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 1: But just to keep a routine. It'll be here before

Speaker 1: you know, kind of dealt with it all last season.

73
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,320

80
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 1: remember when the first time, Definitely, I mean it becomes

81
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: I always say this as a player, when you first

82
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: go out there, coach, don't have a scout report on you.

83
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: You know, and as you build and there's some tape

84
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: out there on you, they're gonna see your weaknesses and

85
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna that becomes your job as a player to

86
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: work on the weaknesses, the things that teams want to

87
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: attack you on. And you're fever doing that throughout your career,

88
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 1: you know, trying to evolve as a play here and

89
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: that's something he'll learn to continue to do the field.

90
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: And that was a head coach.

Speaker 2: what's stands out to you?

93
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: The course of the core. You know X's and O's

94
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: football is football, but just the mentality, the energy, uh

95
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: that he brings, you know, and we're just in the building,

108
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: check our social media should have it there before me always.

109
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 1: But tell me about Christian this year, what he needs

110
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: to do if he needs to get to work to

111
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: really be nothing, just just continue to grow. I mean

112
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: just uh, there's gonna be learning curves. There's gonna be

113
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: things that teams are gonna see that he hasn't you know,

114
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: perfected yet, and they're gonna, you know, start to key

115
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 1: on those things. And that's his job to come back

116
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: and evolve from that. You're gonna have us and downs,

117
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 1: but just mentally how he is. He's not a type

118
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,400
Speaker 1: kid that gets down on hisself. You know. He comes

119
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: in every day with an even killed temperament. So I

120
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: don't think I have anything to worry about about him

121
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 1: as far as his mentality. What did you need to do?

122
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 2: Go on Final Plus, you guys are gonna get to

123

Speaker 1: This week is right here. This next few weeks is

130
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,800

131
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:53,919
Speaker 1: you know. That's what I was telling the guys at

132
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:55,880
