But you know, thinking of this, Coach, for a head coach out there, you know, what do you think he should be paying the most attention to as this regular season winds down, whether you're gonna be in it or not?

Well, at this point in time, if you're in it- What do you do really, really well? What are the things you can hang your hat on? What are the things that offensively, defensively, special teams has been your go-to? And really focus on what you're going to do s- because that's the, where your kids have your confidence.

They know those plays work.

They know that defense works.

They know those special team gadgets or whatever you've got.

As a head coach, I wanna make sure I've got my core offense, defense, and special team stuff lined up and ready to go.

Now this is the time where I start tweaking and finding that, you know, there's that young kid that maybe you had playing JV that, hey, this kid can do this.

... what's the approach there for a, a team like that who maybe looks at their record and say, "I don't, we don't know if we belong"?
