• 0:18
  Speaker 1: a senior and he has been down the road the
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: entire time as a Yukon Husky. I asked this of
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: a lot of student athletes. You know, when you get
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: here as a freshman four years, that's a long time.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: It goes fast, doesn't it.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: It goes but really fast.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: What's it feel like now that you're a senior.
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: I mean, he's going by so fast, Like I feel
• 0:41
  Speaker 4: like I'm a whole different person from when I came
• 0:44
  Speaker 4: in and I'm going with like a lot of the
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: people that I came in here with that is still here.
• 0:50
  Speaker 4: Like we talked about it a lot, how fast Like
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: it seems like it was like a few months ago.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: We just got here and we got a lot of
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: memories together.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you've had a lot of fun together too, watching
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: this program. Developed thirty two tackles on the season. You
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: had seven Saturday at Boston College, and I know one
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: of the things that you talked with ad him about
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: was you watched the BC Clemson game on television just
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: to get a different perspective. Now, I know there was
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: a quarterback change, but still did it? Did it help
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: you I mentally and what you did on Saturday?
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it helped. It helped a solid amount.
• 1:27
  Speaker 4: I had uh uh my freshman year at waitin my
• 1:31
  Speaker 4: freshman year. On our sophomore year, we actually played the
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: quarterback at BC.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: He was at FIU. Right, it helped a good amount.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: I probably should have in the game keyed into a
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: little bit more because it was a play where I
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: definitely expected a route that was coming and I just didn't.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: I didn't trust myself on it. But it helped a
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: good amount.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: Okay, Uh.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: For those who have been around these parts a while,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I mean I've been covering this team since two thousand
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: one at Boston College is a really big deal.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: What was a locker room like after the game?
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: Oh, it was, it was.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: It was good excitement. Get excitement, but also we expected
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: to win that game. We came in and knowing that
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: there was that we would be able to get the
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: job done as long as we bought into it as
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: a defense, as special teams, as offense, as a team
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: really and we bought into that the fact that we'll
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: be able to go in there, win the game and
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: win the game confidently.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Well, you were down twenty to seventeen and a half
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: thanks to a fifty yard touchdown pass to Reed Harris.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: What were the coaches?
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: What was the coach's demeanor, whether it be coach Moore
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: or your defensive coordinator, what was their demeanor like going
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: into the locker room and coming out for the third quarter.
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: I mean, obviously, you know, giving up a touchdown, coaches
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: aren't going to be very too too happy about it,
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: but they never lost faith in the fact that we
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: were going to go win the game.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Like we don't have we don't have soft coaches that.
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: Are like gonna baby us or like they're like they
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: built tough skinning around here with us. So they know
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: that they can say like they can coach and we
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: won't take it any type of personally take it any
• 3:04
  Speaker 4: way demeaning so they obviously were very adamant about getting
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: that fixed going into the second half.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: Twenty one to three in the second half and the
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: defense ends up with seven sacks last couple of games.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: It seems like that this whole group that he had
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: a lot of new guys and for you two a
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: new role, have really started to get comfortable.
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: Would that be the case?
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I would say we definitely get comfortable because obviously,
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: you know I was here last years. There's a lot
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: of new people, a lot of new people that are
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: on the defense. So being able to build that chemistry,
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: build that trust, uh, because obviously he's not going to
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: come fast, but a lot of people come from different places,
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: different backgrounds, So us being able to play a few
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: games together, get that chemistry, get that bar, and that
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: trust is definitely looking towards just paying off.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Now, regardless of your role, you are the old guy
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: in this secondary or one of the old guys in
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: the secondary, how's your leadership skills? What what do guys
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: lean on to you for as a senior? Uh?
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: They little me towards communication on the field and off

• 5:04
  Speaker 1: Joe Finnano has been nothing short of for Finnano has
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: been nothing short of phenomenal. Almost nineteen hundred yards passing,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: fifteen touchdown passes, no interceptions. What's it like to see
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: these guys in practice every day.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Oh, that's great, honestly, because like obviously we practice again,
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: We've been practicing against this offense for a while now, so,
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: like I've seen a lot of the players that they
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: run in the game, and they they built a lot
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: of good chemistry together, Joe and Scotland and the rest
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: of the receivers and you know, obviously Cam and the
• 5:36
  Speaker 4: whole line of running backs. They're they're getting going and
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: moving the ball officially, like really officially every every drive.
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: So you know, if they trust, like we all got
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: to trust offense and defense especial seams that would work
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: cohesively together.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, complimentary football. Who's the biggest trash talker of the
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: wide receivers to you guys.

  Speaker 1: in basketball, because some of the motions are the same.
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, athleticism, Yeah, athleticism wise, you know, and also being
