00:04Aaron, Coach, you mentioned you and Claire, you had your career.
00:08Do you have to maybe control any guys who are emotionally emotionally?
00:11Do you look like some who do you also have to make the point that don't retaliate
00:14when you're trying to take it out?
00:16Yeah, all those conversations happen.
00:17You see your brother get hurt, right?
00:19And you want to react, I want to react.
00:21And I thought you have to find the guys that are emotional.
00:24And then the big key for me is, hey,
00:26let's play with our passion in between the whistles.
00:29Because what happens in those moments is your body starts to tense up,
00:32you start to get a heightened sense of awareness,
00:34and you're wasting a lot of energy in between plays when you still got four
00:37quarters to finish, especially as early as it happened in the game.
00:41So, you know, there's some breathing exercises that go on.
00:43There's some resets that go on.
00:45There's just some confirmation of like, hey, here's where we're at.
00:48Here's what we need from you.
00:49And here's the best way you can honor Dante and the way you operate.
00:52So I thought, you know, we had a lot of guys that did a really good job of that.
00:55And there's going to be guys that are emotional in that moment.
00:57So they handled it well.
00:59Great.
01:00A lot of USC fans had a lot to say to Bear Alexander today.
01:04I wonder if you can talk a little bit about his culture and his maturity coming back to the
01:09ball sort of thing.
01:10Yeah, I mean, it's something we talked about going all throughout the entire week of Bear.
01:14Here's what you can expect.
01:15Here's what you can anticipate.
01:16Let's go ahead and decide what our reactions are going to be.
01:19Why you're a different person today than you were six years ago, five years ago,
01:23four years ago, and how he's grown up.
01:24And I think we saw a great example of that today.
01:26We saw a leader on the sideline.
01:28A guy that was demanding the best of his teammates.
01:30A guy that was focused in the game at all moments.
01:32I didn't get to watch him specifically play, but I know they struggled to run the ball inside.
01:37And I think that has a lot to do with our interior D-line.
01:40They were able to create some runs outside that we got to clean up, but I thought he did
01:44some great things.
01:45I thought he had good composure in moments where a lot of people under the same scrutiny hearing
01:50that, you know, those voices wouldn't react the same.
01:54Hey.
01:55Hey.
01:55Hey.
01:57Hey, hey.
