00:00 the game. Money What was the
00:07 message of just the mentality
00:08 you kind of try to try to get
00:09 back in the game in the second
00:12 half. Just coming out, you know
00:13 with a different mentality, you
00:15 know, stick to the script and
00:15 don't get discouraged and just,
00:19 you know, keep balling. At the
00:19 end of the day. That's what it
00:20 comes down to. And I absolutely
00:23 love the way that we came out
00:26 the game. Um. Show character of
00:34 what type of man we are. And
00:35 uh, yeah, they're just taking
00:36 on that mentality and be able
00:37 to keep fighting. You guys had
00:40 cut it down to 14 in the second
00:42 half. What was kind of mentality
00:44 on the sideline? You guys keep
00:45 keep trying to step on the neck
00:48 keep trying to, uh, take body
00:50 blows. Take back play after
00:51 play taking, you know, one play
00:53 at a time. Just sticking to the
00:54 script trying to narrow it down
00:55 and not not not trying to change
00:57 anything. Just sticking to the
00:58 script and keep playing. Maybe
01:00 tough to do is now, but we just
01:02 think about the season over 1000
01:04 yard. What do you think you were
01:05 able to show in your first time
01:06 as a starter? I just wanted to
01:10 do what I can to help win as a
01:12 team, and I didn't really put it
01:14 in my head or what I was going
01:15 to do this season. I was just
01:16 going to do what I could for my
01:18 team, you know, to help win.
01:22 Could you maybe give us a little
01:25 bit of an evaluation on how you
01:25 saw Josh Hubert grow over the
01:27 last seven years? Josh, he
01:29 stepped in and he showed he did
01:31 he did a phenomenal job. I feel
01:33 like, um, like he showed true
01:37 character of what he can do, and
01:39 I have no doubt in my mind he's
01:40 going to be something special as
01:41 well. How would you kind of
01:44 evaluate the offense with the
01:45 way you guys finished today and
01:48 then last week against Baylor
01:49 42 in the second half against
01:51 Texas? You guys seem to be
01:54 clicking during those three
01:55 games. How would you evaluate
01:57 how you guys finished the season
01:59 on offense? I'm going to say
02:01 stronger. You know, we came
02:04 together as a team, you know,
02:05 we figured it out, you know,
02:07 just to find that extra push in
02:10 us, and it's going to be
02:12 something special to what Coach
02:14 Bryles can bring to this team.
02:16 You know, our offense together,
02:18 when we all clicking as one, you
02:20 know, we're powerful, and we
02:22 show that when we just taking it
02:23 one play at a time. Did you
02:25 envision yourself having this
02:27 type of season? I always pride
02:30 myself on being the best I can
02:32 be, and I didn't envision it. I
02:36 just wanted to do what I can to
02:37 help with the team. How would
02:39 you evaluate the season as a
02:42 whole? Definitely an adversity
02:47 run. When you have a season like
02:51 this, you got to try to find
02:52 what to do to, you know, make
02:54 it better, you know, and I feel
02:56 like we fought hard through
03:02 every single week, you know,
03:04 just falling short. We just had
03:07 to find that adversity, and I
03:09 feel like we found it, and it's
03:11 only going to keep getting
03:12 better from there. We'll go one
03:14 more question for Imani. Thank
03:18 you. We have JoJo Earle.
03:21 - Thanks.
