Jordan HancockGUEST
Uh, whether that's making plays or not making plays or doing your job so another person can make plays, that's kinda what we pride ourselves on.
Jordan HancockGUEST
I'm always up for a new challenge, and a lot of people in the country can't do that.

What did, sort of mindset similar, what, what is the biggest difference when you're playing one of those two positions?
Jordan HancockGUEST
Uh, you're guarding quicker, quicker receivers in that slot, so that's kind of the whole ...
Jordan HancockGUEST
If you see last year, I got a lot more comfortable in the slot when, uh, I was kinda like the main slot when I kinda focused on it, and it just, my game elevated from there.

Jordan, when you were talking about watching film of Oregon, which one do you think is more valuable to you, watching it against yourself s- you know, seven games ago, even if you've changed, or the ensuing six games for Oregon? Which one do you put more stock in?
Jordan HancockGUEST
For me, uh, I kind of watch [clears throat] what I did, things that I did well, things I didn't do too well against them.
Jordan HancockGUEST
So, uh, I really watched the past game we played, and I know they're gonna go back to some of the stuff that they liked, of course.
Jordan HancockGUEST
And different games like Penn State, maybe Illinois, they run a lot of man, so just watching, watching stuff like that.

speaker_121UNKNOWN
Think about the difference in just top to bottom talent in that room in the last, from when you got here to now, and how much different that is.
speaker_116UNKNOWN
Um, you've m- moved around a lot in the secondary in, in your career and, and now kind of getting some, many more safety reps. W- what is it like at this point when, when Walt or, or Coach Mills comes to you and asks you to do something else? And, and just how much can you lean on the experiences you've had moving around when, when you're trying to, to learn something new in the, in the middle of the season?
Jordan HancockGUEST
We always talk about on this defense being unselfish, uh, whether that's making plays or not making plays or doing your job so another person can make plays.
Jordan HancockGUEST
That's kind of what we pride ourselves on, and it's just fun, me moving around different positions.
Jordan HancockGUEST
Uh, s- I'm always up for a new challenge, and a lot of people in the country can't do that.
Jordan HancockGUEST
I just hold myself to that standard where I can play any position and excel at it.

Jordan, when you were talking about watching film of Oregon, which one do you think is more valuable to you, watching it against yourself s- you know, seven games ago, even if you've changed, or the ensuing six games for Oregon? Which one do you put more stock in?

speaker_29UNKNOWN
now playing up closer to the line of scrimmage, how do you think it changes the whole view of how you play?
Jordan HancockGUEST
I mean, Sonny has the ability to play safety, to play linebacker, and probably come off the edge.
Jordan HancockGUEST
So, I think having him close to the line, being able to make plays, it gives us more opportunity to change the defense and do different things in the defense that maybe we weren't able to do last year.
speaker_25UNKNOWN
That had to be frustrating for you to watch this time, considering how close you guys were, some of the plays that went the other way in the big house.

speaker_18UNKNOWN
How much do you appreciate flying next to Cale? And what has he maybe taught you, even though he's two years younger, just from being around him and watching what?
Jordan HancockGUEST
He came in here and, like I said beforehand, himself like a pro, came in asking a bunch of questions, was a sponge, learned as much as he could at such a fast rate, and continues to learn.
Jordan HancockGUEST
I think just being with someone like Kev, just someone I constantly compete with, and he makes me better by doing that.
Jordan HancockGUEST
Obviously, we support each other more than I think anyone else in this building.
Jordan HancockGUEST
So I think just having a brother like that that I can compete against at such a high level with also having the support from him is extremely special.
speaker_18UNKNOWN
But if it comes down to you guys having to win, how much confidence is there on this defense that you're up to? I mean,

So that's kind of the whole... it's two different techniques from outside and inside.

Thank you.
Jordan HancockGUEST
[laughs] Uh, just the brotherhood, you know? Every, everyone was coming back, so I'm like, "Man, what do I look like just going, going and leaving?" But I just wanna leave out of here with a national championship, and, uh, we just left so much behind.
Jordan HancockGUEST
I feel like our class came in one of the best class to ever come through Ohio State, and we need to leave out of here with something, so that's why, that's why I came back.

From a mindset standpoint, what is the biggest difference between when you're playing one of those two positions?
Jordan HancockGUEST
You're guarding quicker receivers in that slot, so that's kind of the goal.
Jordan HancockGUEST
It's two different techniques from outside and inside, so I've been really working on it.
Jordan HancockGUEST
If you see last year, I got a lot more comfortable in the slot when I was kind of like the main slot when I kind of focused on it, and it's just my game elevated from there.

What do you think of your play that really sh- showcases itself the most?
Jordan HancockGUEST
For me, I mean, I'm just trying to give, I mean, every s- I think you can be as y- you can play this game for 50 years and there's always gonna be something you leave the field with like, "God, I wish I would've been better in that area.
Jordan HancockGUEST
I wish it would've been better in some other ar-" You know what I mean? Like, it's never gonna be, "This is absolutely perfect." So like to me, that's...
Jordan HancockGUEST
Uh, right now the hardest part of this is just the mental toughness of it all.
Jordan HancockGUEST
I mean, physical toughness, I mean, you either have it or you don't in my opinion, so.
