Jordan Lockhart

Ray Coney had an awesome game, in my opinion, from a linebacker standpoint.

over the weekend against Arizona State I really liked what I saw what we've seen from Noah McHale over the past two weeks and then also you see guys like Jordan Lockhart getting in there as well so I just think as a whole the defense and the depth has really shown through and you've been able to that's I mean TJ Searcy said it in his press conference I believe this week um Not being tired at all when you're going in the fourth quarter as a starter and then, hey, I'm going to be able to give it my all and, hey, I'm going to get a – not a strip sack.

I'm going to call it a strip sack and then the ball pops up and you get Marco Jones getting a touchdown and then you're just consistently getting pressure that entire second half to where you force an air and throw and Julio Humphrey is able to make a play.

I think just the depth showing through throughout the entire – and allowing those starters to not be tired throughout the entire game and have to play every game or have to play every down is very important.

has been the absolute star of that show to me.

You lose your captain, you lose the best player in that arguably on your defense, and now you're fine.

You've got a Tamari Watkins, you've got a Jordan Lockhart, you've got a Ray Coney from the portal.

You had so much talent there, whether it be homemade or transfer portal, to kind of weather that storm.

So I'm truly treasuring kind of every day that I get a chance to kind of wake up.

It's funny, I ran into one of our linebackers, Jordan Lockhart, and he said, Coach, man, you always smile.

And I'm like, yeah, right? Because I woke up this morning, right? Because there's a ton of people that don't get the luxury to be able to do that, right? So, you know, it's one of those things, right? You can let life run you or you can run life.

So for me, it's always been a deal where I want to show up, do it for the right reasons, right? And maximize everything that I can.
