00:00 >> Through the ending of the game on Saturday,
00:03 what was the team's reaction to the results in the final minute or so?
00:07 >> Yeah, it was a tough one, tough that we had to swallow just,
00:10 I guess a questionable call that everybody had at the end of the game.
00:15 But we had a lot of mistakes that we had during the game that we can't just blame
00:18 it on one play.
00:20 Like coach was telling us, we got a rebounded.
00:22 We didn't really play, they out toughed us, we didn't really play tough, and
00:29 we can't do that on the road, so it's a lot of things that happened.
00:32 >> Trey kind of had a breakout moment, 24 points, just a bunch of crazy jump shots.
00:36 What was just your reaction to seeing him perform?
00:37 >> Yeah, I mean, it's not really a surprise.
00:39 Every time I'm in a gym, Trey's in the gym.
00:42 So just seeing him putting the work in and
00:44 just wanting to get his shots, it was already not really a surprise for me.
00:49 So I'm just excited to see him do what's thankful.
00:52 >> You've had some pretty nice games against Oklahoma in your career
00:56 when you were with Oklahoma State.
00:58 What do you like about playing this year?
01:01 >> Yeah, just a big rivalry game, coming from Oak State.
01:05 It was a huge game that everybody wanted us to win.
01:08 So going in with the mindset of just doing anything on the floor to get the dub.
01:14 And so that's why I guess my record is so good against them right now.
01:17 But I'm with TCU now, so I just wanna bring that winning mentality to here and
01:23 just come out with a dub tomorrow.
01:24 >> What stands out about this year's regular Oklahoma football game on film?
01:29 >> I would say they got a good guard.
01:31 That's where ball dominates, makes smart plays.
01:35 So just locking on our matchup.
01:37 >> Talk a little bit about how your role has shifted this year,
01:42 started coming off the bench now you've started the last few games.
01:45 How are you kind of growing into your role on the scene?
01:50 >> Just being that guy that whatever the team needs, I'm gonna do.
01:53 So if that's making plays for my teammates, making plays for my teammates.
01:58 If that's what's working in the game, if that's scoring the ball,
02:01 scoring the ball.
02:02 So just being that dude on the court to where it's whatever the team needs,
02:06 I'm gonna do.
02:06 If that's playing defense on the best play, I'm gonna do that.
02:08 So just doing whatever the team needs.
