  Speaker 1: Back with Jim More on the Yukon Football Coaches showed Jim,
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: we didn't talk about offense, but Joe Fignano pretty good day.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Completed twenty of his first twenty six passes and he
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: spread it around pretty well, seven different receivers. It felt good,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: it looked good. How do you rate? Do you rate
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: the quarterbacks play every game or do you just say
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: we won, we lost and he helped us. I don't
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: know how do you do?
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: We You should see the great charts that we use,
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: the evaluation charts we use for every game. I mean
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: every player, every game, every play, every situation, and not
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: just the players, but it starts with how we evaluate
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: ourselves as a staff and the decisions that we made
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: going into the game and then during the game. So yeah,
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: we're all great on every single play. And that's really,
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: you know, just about accountability, making sure we're doing the
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: right things, make sure we're coaching it right, making sure
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: that we're our players are understanding what we're coaching, and
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: if they're not, how we do a better job of
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: making sure they understand it? Are they processing? Are they learning?
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Are they growing each week? Are they able to apply
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: the lessons in a game. So yeah, we're very, very
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: detailed with all that.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: We have Ramelo Murphy on the show a little bit later.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: He's a red shirt senior from California, transferred from Arizona.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: He'd been at Old Dominion. I like the way he
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: plays outside. Four catches fifty one yards thirty four yards
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: after catch, and we talked about it. Actually, he is
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: an interesting character because if you got receivers who can
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: turn five yards into fifteen, you got something going.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Raymelo is awesome. Number one. He's an amazing human being,
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: like just lights up a room, great attitude, hard worker, trustworthy,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: like great kid. I wish he had more years than
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: just this one with us because he's a program builder.
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: You can build around guys like Ray Mellow. But yeah,
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: he's dependable. You know, he catches the balls, he he
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: gets yards after the catch. He's a good blocker. He's
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: very smart, he's very versatile. He's tough as hell. He
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: can I mean he's not afraid to stick his nose
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: in there and go dig someone out. So big, big,
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: big time addition to this program. We tried to get
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: him last year actually in the portal and he went,
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: you know, he went to Arizona, as you know, but
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: finally getting him here has been a big time deal
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: for us on and off the field. You know, he's
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: a he's a glue guy. Man, he's big time.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. They used that term a lot in basketball. Where's
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: number six Romelo Murphy Delaware they opened that Colorado and
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Jim they had the same amount of yardage as the
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Buffalo's in that game, just about three ninety six to
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: three ninety eight. They out passed him three hundred and
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: twelve yards in the air, and they had almost the
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: same amount of first downs in a game that they
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: you know, they lost by two, three scores, whatever it was.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, do those numbers add up or am I
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: missing something here?
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: Well, numbers are You can manipulate numbers any way you want.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: You know, they were down in the game and they
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: had to throw it more than probably they wanted. They
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: wanted to, They probably want to be a little more
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: balanced because they do have a really good running game,
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: but they had to throw it, and they threw it effectively.
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, their quarterback did a heck of a job.
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: But you know, you go watch it the first game
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: against Delaware State and they ran the ball really well.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: So they're a very balanced offense. They're physical, they know
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: what they want to be. They have an identity, they
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: stick with it. But they are you know, they're equally adept.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I think it thrown and running the football and the
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: quarterback can cause problems because he can run the football
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: and he is a good passer. So yeah, it's gonna
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: be a real challenge for us to go on the
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: road against a team that's got a lot of confidence.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: They've won a lot of games. They are physical, they
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: are tough, they are gritty. You know, they've got talented players.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: They're well coached. So it's it's gonna be a great,
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: great challenge for us.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Nick Minnacouchi is their quarterback. Where's number eleven. He had
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: a career high three hundred and twelve yards in the
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: year against Colorado and Jakari Kelly, his wide receiver one
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: of his primary targets Where's number nine. He also had
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: a career high sixty seven yard catch eighty three yards
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: in the year. Don Bosco kid from from New Jersey. No,

• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Don Bosco. Preppy. Some of these high school programs they
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: just keep pumping out players, isn't it.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean yeah, you kind of hear the same
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: names over and over again when you say, you know
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Don Bosco, everyone knows oh great great high school program,
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: you know. And I think that Minicuci is a really
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: good player. And I think that you know, the running
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: back Jonathan Silver is a really good player. Jake Though,
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: who's actually a Connecticut kid who works a slot for
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: him as an outstanding player. He already mentioned Jakari Kelly. Yeah,
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: they're a good team man there. You know, you don't
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: win as many games as they have if you're not
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: a good football team with skilled players who are smart
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: and tough. And like I said, they know who they
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: want to be. They're very well coached. They're very disciplined,
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: they're very tough, they're gritty. Uh, you know, they're kind
