Transcript
00:00 bit of a point of emphasis to that I think it's you Danny, Jalil and Ethan, the
00:04 only guys left in that 21 class taking everything into the SEC. You guys are
00:09 gonna be the kind of the pillars of the program moving forward. Yeah, shoot I remember walking in here as a
00:13 freshman now finishing up my junior season. They say when you come to college
00:18 you're the same people that you came in are not gonna be there when you go out.
00:21 So that indeed is true and yeah like you said we're kind of only guys left in
00:27 the class you know look forward to leading. How different is the it's nothing
00:31 new but the portal and somebody like you Caden Green today it was shocking to us
00:35 what how do you guys take that in? I had enough I don't even know what's going on
00:38 so I don't have none. Okay and we'll find some more about that later. What did it
00:44 mean to see Danny officially announce his comeback? It's great it's great for the locker
00:49 room for the fans for this culture is great to have you know a guy like Danny
00:54 come back and you know finish his last season. What would it mean to you guys to
00:58 pick up an 11th win this season? It'll be big it's definitely momentum going
01:02 into next year and it's gonna be great to go out on the red note. What's the reaction been from the other guys in your position group since you announced you were coming back?
01:12 Happy you know glad to have leadership like that and somebody who has
01:16 experience and things of that nature. What have you seen from Arizona's offense so far?
01:20 Explosive they got a good quarterback good running backs they rotate them and
01:24 they got a good group of receivers.
01:28 Not on purpose but that's probably I mean I know once you know I put it out
01:37 there you know he told me it had him thinking a little bit so I didn't do it
01:41 on purpose but a little bit try to. Billy you got it over really quick did you know
01:47 what you were gonna do the whole time even though you were considering it or
01:49 was it a tougher decision than maybe I think? It wasn't that tough a decision
01:54 you know it's just it's just we live in a different time now where people are
01:58 trying to make a rush to go somewhere you know I'm not in no rush that's gonna
02:02 be there so let me let me finish my college let me finish my school let me
02:05 finish these things then I'll get on to the next stage of my life so it really
02:09 wasn't a big decision you know controversial wise I kind of knew what I
02:13 was doing you know I just I mean I was told that you know I should go ahead and
02:18 say something just because, but yeah, it wasn't really that tough.
