  Winders, new boy, how have they

  developed?

  >> Yeah, the depth in our room is crazy.
• 0:06
  Like last year we had crazy depth. This
• 0:07
  year basically still got the same
• 0:08
  pieces. So I think the depth is could be
• 0:11
  like our biggest thing that help us the
• 0:14
  most sis. I think
• 0:16
  >> new position coach of course. What's
• 0:17
  some of the things he's been pouring to
• 0:19
  you guys this fall, this spring that you
• 0:21
  guys want to go into the fall with?
• 0:23
  >> Just better things we messed up on last
• 0:24
  year, but mostly building our confidence
• 0:26
  back up and us playing to the level we
• 0:28
  can play at. So that's big stand.
• 0:30
  >> Big recruiting weekend last week. Junior
• 0:32
  went to your alma mo and Thompson. What
• 0:34
  some of the things you've been telling
• 0:35
  him about the plans?
• 0:36
  >> Come on. Start the pipeline. See, we got
• 0:38
  a couple got what like six Monte coming
• 0:41
  in. So
• 0:42
  >> yeah, trying to start pine
• 0:44
  >> and just overall DJ Durkin Stan, you
• 0:46
  know, how's that helped, you know, the
• 0:47
  camaraderie and this defense overall?
• 0:49
  >> We already know what to expect. You
• 0:51
  already know what you're supposed to get
• 0:52
  out of what he is. You know that person.
• 0:54
  You come up be the same person every
• 0:56
  day. So, I think that was good for us.
• 0:58
  >> Appreciate that, man.
• 1:00
  >> What's the intensity been like this uh
• 1:01
  spring so far? Uh kind of adjusting to
• 1:04
  this new goalish way of doing things.
• 1:07
  >> Goal is just putting in us that win. It
• 1:09
  don't nothing else matter. All the talk,
• 1:11
  all the ra don't matter unless we win.
• 1:13
  So, that's really biggest thing Coach
• 1:15
  Gold is bringing to us is bringing that
• 1:16
  win mentality to us.
• 1:18
  >> Can you uh give us a teammate maybe that
• 1:21
  standing out so far this spring that
• 1:22
  nobody's talking about that we should be
• 1:23
  talking about?
• 1:25
  Got a couple guys. Can't just think of
• 1:27
  one off the head. Let's see. We a little
• 1:29
  cornerback. Uh he got Dre from UCLA
• 1:33
  doing an amazing job. Ball hard. Good
• 1:34
  manto man coach. So he probably one of
• 1:37
  the ones.
• 1:37
  >> Talk to me about Xavier Atkins. Uh he
• 1:40
  burst on the scene last year. What's it
• 1:42
  been like just kind of playing alongside
• 1:43
  him?
• 1:44
  >> Easy to hem that ball, make it our job
• 1:48
  way easier than supposed to be. So
• 1:49
  playing with him is like put on the
• 1:51
  trigger. You should make your decision.
• 1:52
  Make it tackle. If you don't make it,
• 1:54
  most likely you're gonna make a tackle.
• 1:57
  >> Be who you say you are. Coach Bowl was
• 1:58
  talking about that earlier. What has
• 1:59
  that phrase slogan kind of meant since
• 2:02
  he's been here? What has it meant to
• 2:03
  you?
• 2:03
  >> Don't do all that talking. Show the
• 2:05
  in action. It don't mean more than your
• 2:09
  actions. You talking, oh, I'm be this.
• 2:11
  Oh, we going to do this this year. It
• 2:12
  don't matter. Just show up every day.
• 2:14
  Works way better than it was the day
• 2:15
  before.
