00:06where do you think Mateo can continue to improve and better his game in this last year with Oregon
00:11yeah I won't speak in specifics but as you say you know ultimately as a finisher right at the
00:16end of plays that's a place that I know that he wants to attack and improve he's always been a
00:20really intelligent player obviously has a special skill set and he's done a lot of things in the
00:26weight room you know this offseason to attack places for him to get better and you know I think
00:30he has that voice and his ability to continue to share that voice with the team is going to be
00:34something that can impact us I think it's been since 1999 that a coach has been in his fifth spring
00:41with with the Ducks just as head coach where's the biggest benefit for you just in the familiarity of
00:47being here for four seasons and just not being the new guy on the block anymore the biggest benefit
00:53for me is getting to sit in the seat that I sit in right to get to be a place
00:56like Oregon I mean I
00:57I realized how special it was the day that I got here and now getting to go into year five
01:01I mean
01:02it's even more special and that's something I just don't want to take for granted so yeah grateful that
01:07we have some continuity we have some staff continuity we have a lot of guys that understand what we're
01:11looking for and what we're trying to accomplish but more more importantly grateful for the experience
01:15and the opportunity to be here
01:23you
