  Speaker 1: Welcome Aboard to see Yukon Football Coaches Show. We get
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: together with Jim Moore every week on Tuesday, kind of
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: recap the weekend, look ahead to Rice on the Roads Saturday.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: A huge win for the Huskies at Boston College thirty
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: eight to twenty three on Saturday, and coach Huskies have
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: now won fourteen of twenty. It's about time we can
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: say that this Yukon football program is headed in a
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: good direction.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: And it's really been fun to watch.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: I got to tell you, because I've been around a
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: little bit, there were struggles early on, then you were
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: able to get things going, and right now you're kind
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: of riding a bit of a wave, I think in
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: terms of not just the way you play, but the
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: emotional feeling of Yukon football.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Well, that's good to hear, and it's also not good
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: for me to hear, you know, as Nick Saban used
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: to call that rap poison, you know, and I not
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: necessarily subscribe to that. But I think with so H
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: and Mike is that we just continue to work to
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: the standard that we've worked towards, worked at, you know,
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: and everything we do, and we keep the main thing
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: the main thing, and all those coach cliches, because those
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: are things that actually lead to success. So, you know,
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: I think it's always been my philosophy to handle a
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: win or a loss exactly the same in terms of
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: how you approach the next week.
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: And that's what we're doing.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: You know that one's over, you flush it, you learn
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: from it, You identify the areas where you can improve
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: and some of the things that maybe are emerging as strengths,
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: and you continue to emphasize those things and then you're
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: onto the next one.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Well, Husky's have won four in a row first time
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: since twenty ten. That's fifteen years. But there is something
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: about confidence, isn't there there a blete that develops with
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the team when you've stacked a few wins together.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: You went buff, you pull fire, you win.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: At Boston College, where that hasn't happened in you con
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: football history. I mean, you're doing some things that I
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: think the players start going, hey, wait any anywhere time ready.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: I think that confidence comes from the work that you
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: put in, from the attention to detail, the focus, the
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: discipline you work with.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: And you know the important thing is that you recognize
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: that it's led to some success.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: And you you embrace it and you go even harder,
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: you know. But I think that anytime that you're emphasizing
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: certain things and then there's some dividends being paid, that
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: it reinforces those things for you, you know. And so
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: rather than just saying, hey, it's happened, and why is
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: it happening? And we've got to continue to make sure
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: that these are the things that we emphasize. And if
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: we continue to emphasize them and get ourselves ready to
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: go on Saturday, we should be able to go out
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: and play with great confidence and certainty and cut it
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: loose and make plays. But it's all in the work
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: that you do, in the mindset that you create, and
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: we just have to be diligent about making sure that
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: that remains our focus.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: Yukon scored first at Boston College, had a lead first half,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: and then late and a half Eagles rallied to take
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: a lead to the locker room. And that's where I
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: want to go with this. You go to a locker room,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: and you've been in a thousand of them. I've been
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: in a few too. You have x amount of time
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: to do things to adjust. The Eagles ran for a
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: buck fifty two in the first half only thirty nine
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: in the second half. What kind of adjustments do you
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: have time to make to kind of square that away
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: and get it turned around.
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: Well, a couple things. You know, that's not how you
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: want into half. Certainly, you know we couldn't we couldn't
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: convert on third.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: Down and offense.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: We gave them the ball, we had them backed up
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: first and twenty five. You know, in my mind, we're
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: going to go in with either a four point leader
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: or a one point lead because we're going to hold
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: into a field goal. And then they hit us on
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: that touchdown. You know, hell a throw very well executed
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: by them. We can be better. We will be better.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: But I always impressed with the way our players responded
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: in the locker room, like there was no panic, No
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: one's pointing fingers. Uh, you know, no one was getting upset.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Everyone was very calm and focused, and our coaches got
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: together and you know, you're making adjustments all through the game.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: But now, Mike, what's interesting.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Is with that with the iPad that we're able to use,
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: we can have actually have TVs set up in our
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: locker room and we can go back and watch plays
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: at halftime.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: That happened in the first half where you couldn't do that.
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: So you know, you can have a mini film session,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: so there are some things now you can do at
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: halftime that you couldn't do in the past.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: That really helped.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: But we were able to, you know, make some adjustments
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: into our players credit. They are smart guys who care,
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: and so they were able to implement those adjustments we
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: made and we went out and we and we.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: We played better in the second half.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Certainly when you get the lead, which we were able
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: to get at the start of the second half with
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: that great drive by our offense, you know, and time
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: starts to tick, it's harder for a team to run
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: the ball. They have to throw up more and then
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: we could kind of pin our ears back and go
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: after them a little bit in terms of the pass rush.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Seven sacks for the Huskies in the ballgame, Jim Mora
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: with us on Mike Crispino. Most points by a Husky
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: team against the Power Conference team since twenty eleven when
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: they beat Rutgers forty to twenty two. So we got
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: to go offense here, coach, you got Joe Finano having
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: a nice year. Only guy in the country with fifteen
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: hundred yards throwing without an interception, it goes for four
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: tds in the game at BC. When the offense is
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: running like that three point fifty five he threw four,
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: you have your choice. You could run, you could pass right.
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's kind of fun because you have options.
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: You know, that's what you want is that's you know,
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: keeping people off balance on defense and not letting them
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: zero in on what you're trying to do offensively, keeping
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: them you know, off a rhythm as you find your rhythm.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: And so you and I have talked about this a lot.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Just balance on offense to me means you're if you're
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: in a gamer, you have to be able to throw.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: It to win.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: You can throw it to win, and if it's a
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: game that demands that you run it to win, you
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: can run it to win. And you know, we're building
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: towards that. That's a goal of ours every week. But
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: it's also a way to keep a defense, you know,
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: maybe off rhythm a little bit, you know, breaking some
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: tendencies that maybe you have, you know, throwing it when
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: they think you're going to run it, and run it
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: when they think you're going to throw it. So I
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: think that coach Samus and that staff, they do a
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: great job of game planning. I think they do a
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: great job of adjusting during the game. And then, like
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: I said about our defensive players, our offensive players the
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: same way. They're very, very smart, and they're very they
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: have really good football intelligence as well as just being
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: intelligent young men, and they care and they study and
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: they're able to adapt to what we want to do,
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: and we've just got to keep cultivating that.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Jim Moore, willis that you count football Coaches show.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: We'll talk to Lee Malette a little bit later on
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: out of the secondary, and then you spareno and a
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: couple of TVs. We'll talk to coach about him too
• 7:03
