00:00I tell you, when you're in the fire and your back's against the wall and

00:05you've had disappointing times, there's very few people that you can probably

00:13count on to fight like heck to help change whatever the circumstances are.

00:20And obviously, to God be the glory first.

00:25But that group of young men and that group of coaches,

00:31it's disappointing and as hurtful as those four tight losses were.

00:37I think there's a lot of people, particularly with the noise that comes with that.

00:44That maybe kind of shut it down, even if it's just mentally.

00:50And I'm just so thrilled for our university, our administration,

00:55who I think love our culture and our staff.

00:59But obviously, you got to win some football games too.

01:02And I know all of that's real.

01:05But the realest thing to me is watching what I got into coaching for.

01:11And that is for a group of young men to grow and a staff to grow together.

01:18And that's what I see with our kids and our staff.

01:24And there's just, I mean, we, you know, just really proud of the way everybody led, you know, this week.

01:37We could be setting gears saying we're six and one, seven, six and two, seven and one, possibly.

01:44But we're not, and yet I found myself probably even more proud of the way they've handled all this come their way

01:54and all the stuff they have to listen to.

01:57And so just thrilled for our school administration and especially those kids in that locker room.

02:23That's lovely.

02:27Bye.

02:31Bye.
