  Speaker 1: When we're done here. It's the first Yukon Women's Basketball
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Coaches Show Bob Joyce gino Oriema. They preview the twenty
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: four to twenty five season high hopes for the women.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: I think they're preseason number two in the country. And
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: it follows our show at seven here along the Yukon
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Sports Network, the Varsity Network app, and the Varsity Network
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: dot Com. Later on this show, Jaden McDonald joins us
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Yukon linebacker. We're going to talk to him about hurrying
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: the quarterback and the tight end Lou Hanson, who came
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: from Michigan and really had an outstanding day last week
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: against Georgia's state back with Jim mora coach, we always
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: talk about tight ends. Maybe it's me, I'm always talking
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: about tight ends. But what a fun, you know, development
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: it's been to see Lou Hanson now catching the ball.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: You ate five catches the other day, nice touchdown catch
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: in the corner of the end zone to get the
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Huskies offense off and running. You know, seeing that development
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: of a player or a position. For you as a coach,
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: what's that like because you probably sit there and go, boy,
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: if we can get this group going we're going to
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: be better and now it looks like you're getting that
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: group going in the right direction.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Well, Lou has just always been such a hard worker,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: great attitude, team guy. You know, he loves football and
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: uh to see him, you know, catching the ball and
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: having success doing that is great. The thing that has
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: kind of gone unnoticed is his ability to block. You know,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: the tight ends are so critical in our in our
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: run game, and uh he he does a really good
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: job there. To have a guy now that you know,
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: Nick Evers has confidence dropping it down to uh is big,
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: you know, and we can use him on some of
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: the buttler, the bootlegs and things like that. I think
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: it's really critical. So you know, when you've got a
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: guy like Lou who's such a good person, such a
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: hard worker, and then you see kind of the fruits
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: of his labor, I mean, I think it picks everybody up,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: you know. I think we have real dependence on him
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: and his energy and now his production in the past game.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yards have to catch twenty seven for him in
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: that game. And I've said this before, a tight end
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: running loose in the impact defensive backfield, that's like a
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: nightmare to with the defensive back, isn't it.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't want to have to tackle one of
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: those big guys. You know, he go saw him off low,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: but they're no fun to tackle. And Lusman getting the
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: ball in the end zone, and you know, I'm just
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: really excited to see him progress as we go through
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: the rest of the season.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Nick Evers was ten for sixteen coaching the game. The
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: running game was working so well. Two hundred and seventy
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: seven yards gain and forty three rushes. I mean, that's
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: that's a good formula in my mind. You know, the
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: quarterback isn't forced to do things that are difficult. You
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: had to lead. You establish that he threw for only
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: seventy five yards, but it didn't feel like, you know,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: he had to do that much. And that in a sense,
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: I think that's a good thing, isn't it.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Uh Yeah, I mean if that if you're if you're
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: running the ball and you're controlling the ball running it,
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: then you you know, you keep doing it and uh,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: because that kind of can strip a team of its
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: will to play, you know, when they're just getting the
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: ball run at them hard like we were able to
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: do the other night. Uh, But we want to see
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: our past game continue to develop as well. And uh,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: you know Nick had a couple couple of drops in
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: there too, so his stats would have been better. Uh.
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: But I think that what you look at when you
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: look at your quarterback is, you know, his decision making.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Is his decision making improving, is his accuracy improving, is
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: his timing improving? And uh and nice see all those
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: things with Nick. So you know, a critical part to
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: run to throwing the ball is running the ball, and
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: critical part to running the ball is being able to
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: throw the ball and keep people off balance. So that's
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: what we're always striving for.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and the other thing too. And it's interesting there
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: was an interference call Skyler Bell was in the end
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: zone trying to make a catch, kind of an important
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: play in the game. Sometimes a quarterback can help that
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: happen by the way he throws the ball. Where he
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: throws the ball, because the defender might be in perfect position,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: but maybe he's not, and then the ball is delivered
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: in a certain spot and the dB is put in
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a bad place and interference is called. I mean, there's
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: so many aspects to playing quarterback that people don't even
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: think about. In my mind, when you have a game
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: where so many little things matter.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know that is a common play you
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: see in football. Is that kind of that underthrown fade
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: where the defender or the receiver tries to come back
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: for the ball and the defender interferes. That happens a
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: lot and a lot of times a quarterback will throw
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: it short when it's real covered up so that you know,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: you can maybe draw the PI call, which is what
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: happened down in the end zone with Skyler. And you
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: know that one doesn't go anywhere in the stats. That
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: doesn't go as an attempt, that doesn't go in as
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: a completion. She just goes as a fifteen yard penalty,
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: which gives us a first down. So it's as good
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: as a fifteen yard completion. But I think Nick is
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: really starting to grasp the position. I think it's so
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: ch important that you know that I keep in mind
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: that he's a young, developing player in terms of his
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: time on the field playing in games, and uh, I
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: see improvement every day in practice, and I see improvement
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: in the games, and uh it's all a credit to
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: the way Nick works in the way that you know
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Brad coaches him and works with him and mentors him
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: and the way the way Joe Fiano you know, is
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: there for him, and it's it's a good situation right now.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're talking about Brad Robins your QB coaching, So
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: it's it's like having a piece of clay, right. You
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: got a young guy that hasn't had any real college experience,
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: but he's got talent, and you have to work your
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: way through the mistakes or whatever may be going on
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: and see the bright side of things. And and there's
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: so much pressure on quarterbacks to to perform the perfection,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: but there's no perfection in any of these games. So
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I'm curious what you think on that, Brad, Brad Robbins
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: has to kind of look what Nick's doing day to
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: day in practice and in games and analyze what's what
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: he's done well, what he's doing better. Uh, it is
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: a process that that takes all year, doesn't it.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: It takes a lifetime at that position, you know, I
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: mean really it does. You watch the greatest that ever
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: have done it, and they still have bad throws. You know,
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: they still have misreads in this in this industry, in
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: in athletics in general, you know, you've never got it.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: You've never got it figured out, you've never arrived. You're
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: always your work under construction. And that's the attitude that
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: we take. And as you, as you are constructing and
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: working on, you know, becoming a better player, your coach
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: needs to do a great job of recognizing what you
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: do well and that we can accentuate, and what that
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: you struggle, things you struggle with that we can improve upon,
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: and maybe just some things that don't fit you know,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: your style of play that we should junk, you know,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: we should get rid of. And now that's that's what
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: a coach's job is. And Brad does a really great
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: job of that, and Gordy does and they do a
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: really great job of game planning and putting not only Nick,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: but these these other guys in position to make plays
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: and win games.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a work in progress. I've been saying. I
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: said it a few times this year. Jim Moore with us,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: we're back in a moment more the Yukon Football Coaches
