00:00Yeah, I just think, you know, I told you guys, I don't know, in the outside, I don't know if

00:07they believe me or not. I mean, last year's team pushed the issue in a lot of ways. And like we

00:13kind of said, I think was actually quite a bit better team than probably what it got credit for

00:16nationally. And, and we improved so many ways last year, even though, even though the record

00:23didn't show really that at the end of the year, like the people that really watched us and studied

00:27to saw that. And I thought this team, it's like, all right, you got to take that, but now it's got

00:31to go translate some, right? Like we got to go win some of these tough games. We got to go win in the

00:35fourth quarter. We got to go shut guys down defensively. We got to go be able, if we have

00:39different guys down offensively, to win different ways and have different people rise up if we have

00:43injuries. Like that's what just really good teams do that are kind of consistently there every year.

00:49And yeah, and I just think this team, this team did that. I think the way this team responded to,

00:54you know, bringing coach true and his staff in there, you know, right there at the beginning

00:58of summer. Um, and, and some of the changes we made that this team took that in, even though,

01:03um, you know, all that will take hold more as time goes on. Um, yeah, they just, it was just,

01:10it was just important. It just was. I mean, I think, uh, we'll look back. Um, things are good here

01:16right now. We'll look back when things are really, really, really good here. And this will be one of

01:21the ones that everybody will point to. I promise you that's going to happen.
