MSU DC Joe Rossi Game Day Ready & Building Resolve

Yeah, I mean, you kind of get to the end of training camp, and you've been through everything that you put in from winter to spring to summer, get down to training camp, and you're excited to go play a game. You know, football is probably the game where you get the you put in the most work for the least amount of opportunity. The other sports, you get a lot more games. So it's fun to get a chance to play. Yeah, so we had a mock game day, where we kind of put ourselves in a game like situation and move the ball and play all the situations with special teams and go in at halftime. And I think it was, you know, we other places in my career, we've done it. This is probably the one that I enjoyed the most because there was it was the most detailed, detailed and the most game like, obviously, you can't simulate truly a game, but you can simulate the operation. And so, you know, from where we're going to be on the sideline to where everyone stands in to how we're substituting TV timeouts, all those things, it was all covered. So I thought it went really well. How much hope there's continued momentum? Can you use anything? Yeah, so just a couple things to that, like, I'm a big believer as a coach that, you know, each year is its own year, obviously, you know, you got new players, new staff, new head coach. So there is that part, what I would say is there are some guys who were able to go through some lows at the beginning, and then ascend, ascend, ascend, ascend and send. And I think what that does is it builds belief and resolve. And so can you take that? Can you take belief and resolve from one year to the next? Absolutely. So that's what I would say, you know, because obviously, we got a bunch of new guys coming in from different places, but I think that's what we can carry over.
