161
00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,480

165
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 8: out with that, So just trying to lean on them

166
00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:52,920
Speaker 8: and lean on anyone that kind of the older guys

167
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 8: that have been been through it before.

168
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 7: Now your years is that there's still pressure, but maybe

169
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 7: it's a different kind of pressure to make sure.

170
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 2: You're holding onto Yeah.

171
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 8: I think probably just expectations and stuff I put on

172
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 8: myself more more than anything about you know, just trying

173
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 8: to become the best player I can be with just

174
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 8: the standards I set for myself. If that's offense, Spushal

Speaker 7: Seeing you out in the field for the last week

178
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 7: or so. How difficult is that for you personally to

179
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 7: have to miss down with an injury.

180
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, definitely difficult, you know, because you want to be

181
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 8: out there, and especially be the undrafted guy. You know,

182
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 8: I feel like you're missing an opportunity and you know

183
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 8: that's how I felt. But just trying to do everything

184
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 8: I can to get back out there and excited to

185
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 8: get back out there with the guys and start running around.

186
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 3: At what point in the day did Elliott call you

187
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 3: into his office, Like how long did you have to

188
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 3: sweat it out?

189
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,640
Speaker 8: It was probably like twelve okay, twelve one, so not

190
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 8: too bad, not too bad. But I was here working

191
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 8: out doing some stuff and then he told me to

192
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 8: come in and I was like, here we go.

193
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 4: But it was pretty sweet.

194
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 2: And so you wanted to be in the facility leading

195
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 2: up to or did you try to get away at all? No?

196
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 8: I mean I knew often to come in work out,

197
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 8: do treatment, and so I was like, well, I've got

198
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 8: to do that. So I was like I'm gonna come

199
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,679
Speaker 8: and do it and kind of see what happens from there.

200
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 7: I think Drake said, maybe you're like the you're like

201
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 7: first team all treatment guy or something.

202
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 4: He always joked me, He's like, man, you always in here.

203
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,000
Speaker 4: I'm like, I'm just trying.

204
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 2: To stay right man. So but yeah, why is that?

205
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 2: I mean, is that always been part of your routine?

206
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 8: I just think, you know kind of availability is best

207
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 8: best ability?

208
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 2: What is it? Availability is the best ability?

209
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 8: Right? And uh, you know, for like for me to

210
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 8: not the other pasketal weeks really sucks. I'm in there

211
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 8: two three times a day trying to do as much

212
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 8: as I can to get back.

213
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 7: So yeah, obviously you had a lot of catches in

214
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 7: the spring to start off the summer, you didn't have

215
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 7: his money, then really ramped up in.

216
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 4: The last few weeks.

217
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 7: What do you think that was and how much urgency

218
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 7: was there for you to to pick things up as

219
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 7: the summer along.

220
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 8: Yeah, I just think it's just inconsistent my process with

221
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 8: whatever it is. You know, I can't old the ball

222
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 8: coming to me and what's going on with the defenses

223
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 8: doing stuff like that. So just continue to play ball

224
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 8: and then kind of let the results speak for itself.

225
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 3: Did you get a chance to talk to elid.

226
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 8: Pretty You know, we're pending the same conference, we got

227
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 8: the same agent, so we spent a lot of time

228
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 8: together this offseason, training and stuff like that. So it's

229
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 8: pretty special to you know, just the Big Sky You know,

230
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 8: I love the Big CI and to compete against him

231
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 8: for four years and now we're both in the same

232
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 8: spot and we made the team, it's pretty special.

233
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:28,000

Speaker 4: Taking the inage.

236
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 8: I think it's some of the best competition in the FCS.

237
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 8: I think each week we're playing against playoff teams, and

238
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,040
Speaker 8: I think last year we had six teams in the

239
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 8: playoffs and we weren't even one of the We weren't

240
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 8: one of those teams, unfortunately. But we got great competition,

241
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 8: great coaches. They always pushing us. We always scheduled big games.

242
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 8: You know, I played Oregon, Florida, the Vada Pesident State,

243
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,439
