Obviously, I'm happy to get the win, proud of our guys.
We've had some setbacks as of late.
The last couple weeks did not feel like we fought
the way you have to fight
when you're in the middle of a game.
It's going to be a competitive battle.
Today, the game didn't start out very good for us.
We played really sloppy early, getting into several situations
where we just kind of shot ourselves in the foot.
they played good early but the thing the thing
that um i'm most grateful for uh you didn't miss
a whole lot guys i hadn't said really
a whole lot you're good i've really said a whole lot nothing
to this point but uh what i would tell you is i'm here's
my opening statement y'all made it just in
time our guys fought today and we happen to win the game too
which is huge but the most important
thing that happened today is we fought
and winning the game matters i want us to always win but how
you play the game matters as much to me and we we today showed a lot of
character a lot of growth and the fact that we fought
when maybe things had not
been going our way and a lot of it was self-inflicted
but just grateful for our
guys response and the mental toughness and resiliency to fight
