  Lumni Stadium. Saturday, we'll begin our coverage Boston College, yuk on of
• 0:04
  ten thirty. The Hard Auto Group count Down a kickoff twelve noon kickoff as
• 0:10
  the Huskies play on the Yukon Sports Network Mike Chrispino joined by Jim Mora every
• 0:14
  Tuesday. Huskies gave up two tds in the final ten minutes in falling twenty
• 0:20
  four to twenty one this past weekend, the winning touchdown coming with four minutes
• 0:24
  left. Got to ask about this because you look at all the tape,
• 0:27
  you see everything I saw on that touchdown run. And I'm not gonna get
• 0:33
  too deeply into this, but I saw a holding play, a hold there
• 0:37
  that it'll enable that running back to get in the end zone. And we're
• 0:39
  seeing a lot of that week to week in our games, and I watch
• 0:45
  a lot of other football games too. I'm curious sometimes. I know,
• 0:49
  guys hold every play, coach, but if a hold happens in a play
• 0:55
  that's that important, it should be called. Am I right about that?
• 0:59
  Yeah? Absolutely right, you know, And and calls like let's go back
• 1:03
  to, uh, what was the game that Justin made a great catch and
• 1:08
  they and that we had the holding call on Chase and it was it was
• 1:15
  f iu fiu like they called holding on Chase Lunt. That was like as
• 1:21
  TICKI tack as you can get. And then they don't call holding like you
• 1:23
  said on the run. But you know, that is the human nature of
• 1:27
  this game. You know, those officials, they they they're not biased.
• 1:33
  They try hard, they can't see everything. They're not going to be perfect.
• 1:37
  I think. You know, if you start letting excuses seep in as
• 1:42
  a coach and you present them to your players, then that's a that's a
• 1:47
  that's a detriment to your program. And so you know, you try to
• 1:49
  put yourself in a position where calls like that don't happen. You're very clean.
• 1:55
  Uh, you're not in a position where you know they're going to score
• 1:57
  a touchdown because of a hold. Yeah, there are reasons, but they
• 2:01
  can't be excuses for us. It's frustrating, certainly frustrated that there was you
• 2:07
  know, a couple of PI calls that they didn't call that you know,
• 2:08
  and then they called one that I didn't think they should call. But that's
• 2:13
  that's kind of the nature of this game. We all know that you've you've
• 2:15
  done a million games as a broadcaster, and you've probably been frustrated a million
• 2:19
  times it calls to either win against you or went for the other team so
• 2:23
  or that we're missed. So those are the kind of things that kind of
• 2:28
  you know, I know, you just can't dwell on it. No,
• 2:30
  you're right, but those are the kind of things that tip the scales a
• 2:34
  little bit. I know, you're you're looking last week saying four turnovers.
• 2:38
  We can't do that. First quarter turnover at your eight yard line, can't
• 2:40
  do that. So you put yourself behind an eight ball. You come back
• 2:44
  to lead twenty one to ten. So you you've done a lot of overcoming
• 2:47
  of adversity, but then a little thing here, a little thing there,
• 2:51
  tips it back the other way. So that's gott to be the frustration level
• 2:54
  for the coaching staff. How would you rate that right now? Ten?
• 3:00
  But it's not just the coaching staff, it's ten for everybody because our players
• 3:04
  care desperately, you know, and you know, defensively, you know,
• 3:07
  we played a really really really really really good game for you know, most
• 3:15
  of the game and then that last drive for a touchdown where they broke out
• 3:17
  forty seven yard run and we had misstackles. Maybe we didn't put them in
• 3:21
  the best call. You know, that just kind of spoils all the good
• 3:25
  things that you're doing for that day. But once again, you got to
• 3:29
  look back with some objectivity when you're watching the film and you're talking to your
• 3:32
  players and evaluating it with them, and you got to be very very I
• 3:37
  always feel like this, you should look at the game as if the win
• 3:43
  in the law is the way you evaluate the game should be independent of the
• 3:47
  score. It's did you execute or did you not execute? Why did they
• 3:52
  make a play? Why did we make a play? Why didn't we make
• 3:54
  a play? You know, how can we make that play regardless of what
• 4:00
  the situation is? Because if you if your evaluation is based upon the score,
• 4:03
  then you're missing the boat. Your evaluation should be based on the performance.
• 4:06
  And so each play in itself is an individual evaluation. And uh,
• 4:14
  you know, we all point to certain plays, certainly, but I think
• 4:16
  the best way to do it is don't look at the scoreboard, evaluate the
• 4:21
  performance, evaluate the call that we made based upon the situation, and and
• 4:27
  then we can grow, and then we can learn, and then we can
• 4:29
  get better. Yeah. No, I totally agree with that. Let's talk
• 4:32
  about that running back room. Are you calling up reserves from somewhere you don't
• 4:39
  have them? I mean, yeah, we don't have you know, you
• 4:43
  got we got, We got what we got. You know. An unfortunate
• 4:46
  thing here is that we had two young men that quit on this football team,
• 4:49
  quit on their teammates for whatever reason. And when I say quit,
• 4:53
  I mean yeah, am I being a little bit critical? Yeah, I'm
• 4:58
  trying not to be judgmental. Yeah, it stings you a little bit.
• 5:01
  I know our players are bothered by it. I'm talking about Bruton and Houston.
• 5:06
  We could use those guys right now, you know. But on the
• 5:11
  on the flip side, it's given a guy like Cam Edwards a chance to
• 5:15
  step up and show, you know how freaking tough he is. Now this
• 5:19
  week, you know, we'll see what happens with Victor. I know he's
• 5:21
  working really hard to get back. He did not practice today, but that's
• 5:26
  because he was in the training room, you know, and he's keeping Bob
• 5:29
  Howard busy morning, noon and night working on rehab. I wouldn't put it
• 5:33
  past Victor to be ready to go on Saturday. Just knowing how tough Victor
• 5:36
  is, You're going to see Jay Mitchell get more snaps, you know,
• 5:41
  So between Victor Cam and Jalen, you know, we got to figure it
• 5:46
  out. And you know, I feel bad for our offensive players if they
• 5:49
  haven't really for two years been at full strength. You know, we lost
• 5:53
  our quarterback in our tight end the first quarter the second game. Now take
• 5:59
  once coming in on a hell of a job last year. We all know
• 6:01
  what happened offensively, and then this year we lose two running backs and quit
• 6:05
  and then you know, getting Victor hurt hurt, So you know, it
• 6:10
  really stresses Nick out in terms of putting together the game plan against a really
• 6:15
  good team in Boston College that can be successful. Yeah, Nicking is creativity.
• 6:20
  Yeah yeah, really, Nick Charlton's had to work with with less than
• 6:26
  the full roster for sure. On the offensive side. We'll talk about Boston
• 6:29
  College and we'll talk a little bit more about the transfer portal. This is
• 6:32
  like a weekly thing. We talk about that and how that goes around the
• 6:36
  country with Jim Mora. When we continue on the Yukon Football Coaches Show,
