  Speaker 1: Tune in Saturday, the first of seven home games at
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Pratt and Whitney Stadium, as the football Huskies will be
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: hosting the Warriors of Merrimack. Radio coverage beginning with the
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: hard Arted Group countdown to kickoff at ten thirty, then
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the game on at twelve oh five. Bob Joyce would
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: be down at the Clutter Farms, the Husky House, the
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Doghouse outside the stadium beginning at nine am, So come
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: check us out there. The Varsity Network app and the
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: Varsity Network dot Com also has all of the game
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: and pregame broadcast back with Jim morib and coach. Some
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: big plays hurt the Huskies on the weekend, Ty Felton,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: that wide receiver, and they had a good group of wideouts.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Four times had plays of over eighteen yards. And I know,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: you know that could be disheartening for any defense when
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: you give up yardage. How do you when you looked
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: at that on video and film, what did you see
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: and how do you plan on kind of preventing that
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: stuff from happening this coming weekend?
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Well, it was pretty simple, not easy, but simple.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: We didn't tackle well, we had you know, way too
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: many mistackles. We were not bringing our feet on contact.
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: We were leaving our feet, we weren't bringing our arms,
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: we were shoulder tackling.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: And that's not who we are.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: Who we were on Saturday, unfortunately, but that's not who
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: we were going to be. So it's a matter of
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: tackling better, taking better angles, anticipating speed, the speed of
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: the team we're playing and the people were playing.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: You know, we didn't.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: We didn't do a great job of that on Saturday,
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: and therefore they they you know, they hit.
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: Us on some big plays.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: And so we've put a huge emphasis on it, like
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: we always do, but re emphasis this week, you know,
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: better drill work and practice and tackling more speed out
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: of our look teams than to try to simulate what
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: we're going to see on game day. Better angles, better finish,
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: better effort, you know, all those things. So it's never
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: a mystery when those things happen. It's usually, you know,
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: a breakdown in assignment, which I don't think it was
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: as much as it was just us not tackling well,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: not taking good angles, not being disciplined enough in our
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: play entry and and and I know this, our players
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: take all this very very seriously. They don't take it lightly,
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: and we as a as a program, we'll get it fixed.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: The one the one thing, and I played a little
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: defensive back of my previous life. That first guy to
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: the ball, how important is he to get a hand out,
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: get some contact, slow the runner or the receiver down,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: because if you don't do that, you know, these these
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: wide receivers in open spaces, they are so elusive it's
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: hard for the second man to get in there and
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: make a play.
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so we call that, you know, play entry and leverage,
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: you know, and it's dependent upon the defensive call, dependent
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: upon the play that's run and who catches the ball,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: who's carrying the ball, and where they're going. You know,
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: you always want to put a net around him. And
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: it's typically it's you know, two outside, nine inside, and uh,
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: everybody has to do their job, everyondy has. Everyone has
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: to enter the play, enter that the you know, the
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: area where the ball care area is with a specific
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: angle of leverage. And uh, if you don't do that
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: and you let them get out. You know, if you
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: don't cup.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: The ball.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: And you're playing good teams like we were, with speed,
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: they can they can make it look bad. Quickly, and
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: they did that. You know, they did a They did
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: a hell of a job of that. And so obviously
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: it's something that as coaches we've got to do a
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: better job of emphasizing and we will. Uh And as players,
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: they've got to go out and they've got to execute
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: better and they will because they take it seriously.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: And uh So that's not all of us to do
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: a better job.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Jimura willis you konn Husky's head football coach on Mike Chrispino.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Turnovers you talk about every week every coach does let's
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: not do it, but sometimes turnovers it's when they happen,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: isn't a coach, because like you had the one at
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: the end of the half half that Maryland turned into
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: three points, And it just seems like sometimes when the
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: turnover happens, it's when it happens in a game or
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: where on the field that you can't overcome.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: Well, you're absolutely right, and you know the one at
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: the end of the first half, we were trying to
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: be aggressive, we were down twenty to nothing. That's going
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: to happen. We have to go out and we have
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: to get them stopped on defense, you know, and we
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: didn't get that done. But yeah, you're right, you know,
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: you have to take care of the ball that you know,
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: you you you brought up your last two questions that
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: brought up really two very specific and important points, and
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: that is explosive plays and turnovers. The ratio of explosive
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: plays and the ratio of turnovers are the two most
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: important variables in either winning and losing a football game.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: And we were minus three turnovers and we were minus
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: eleven explosives, and so when you put those two together,
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: the chances of winning a football game are pretty remote.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: You know, especially on the road against the team like Maryland.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: It's just really hard to over So, you know, creating
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: more explosives on offense, eliminating explosive on defense, and then
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: you know, taking care of the football and taking it away.
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: You know, we didn't. We didn't take it away. We
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: didn't come close to taking it away. And that's a
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: credit to Maryland. But we've got to do better. We've
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: got to be more aggressive at the ball.
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, there was the one overturned fumble review, boy, that
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: might have made a difference. I know it was early
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: in the game, and you know what I mean, it
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: ended up being a wide margin in terms of the
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: final result. But I just felt like sometimes you get
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: in a game early on and something goes your way
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: that could really change what happens in the next two quarters.
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: It could We'll never know, unfortunately, you know, that's just
• 5:45
  Speaker 3: kind of the way it goes. So you know, we
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: consider and play the wood if game. But the bottom line, Mike,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: as you know, is that there's no excuses. We have
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: to be better. We can't look back and say it
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: could have, would have, should have because that's not the reality.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: And if if we do those things, we're never gonna
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: we're never gonna get better, We're never going to make progress.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: So we're not in the business of looking back and
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: making excuses and playing what it could have. Shit, you know,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: what happened and why did it happen, and how do
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: we fix it?
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: How do we fix it moving forward? And that's that's
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: going to be our focus always.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Well, we'll be back in just a moment to talk
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: about two minute timeouts, something new leadership which coach Moore
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: knows a lot about, and we're going to try to
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: find out about that in the big picture for Yukon
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: and football and going forward and we're going to find
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: a little bit about the Merrimack Warriors. They've got a
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: defensive oriented head coach. All that's coming up in just
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: a moment. This is the Yukon Football Coaches Show on
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: lear Field.
