00:00What's the biggest question about this team that you want to answer this spring?
00:04It's early, man. There's a lot of questions.
00:09I mean, if I were just saying, based on the entire team, I think it would be, you know,
00:15how do we gel a transfer class, you know, a 35-person high school class,
00:22a couple other newcomers that we'll have with a strong returning nucleus as well.
00:28You know, we've kind of – I've seen a little bit.
00:30We've kind of gotten painted on the outside as just this crazy young team.
00:35Like, we're – we do have some really good youth,
00:37and I know that that class has gotten some attention in terms of how that recruiting process played out.
00:41But, like, we've got a lot of guys that have played a lot of ball here.
00:44You know, we've got experience at some positions that you really like to have experience with.
00:49So, to me, it's not as much the youth of it.
00:52It's just combining all them together and creating one cohesive unit.
00:55And I think outside of any specific side of the ball, that's probably the biggest challenge for us
01:00because you like the talent that we have.
01:01You like the returners.
01:02I love the guys we brought in.
01:04But we've got to – you know, it's like, you know,
01:06one of the best sports franchises of all time said, you're not collecting talent.
01:10You're building a team.
01:11What's that?
01:14You're building a team.
