Yeah, yeah, it's been good.
Yeah, I've been good.
We, we didn't do a great job today.
I just felt like we, we missed some things today, but they've been, they've been performing well.
And there's some young guys and, and guys that are kind of new to our program, you know, Nakari's been talent.
I mean, the talent's there, you know, the guy can make plays, he can run, he can catch the ball.
He's still learning how to play.
He's played tight end, I think, for one year, um, and so he's a guy that has a lot of upside, very athletic.
Uh, wants to do right.
It's important to him, is a, is a, is a, you know, a great person.
Mason Peterson's exactly the same way, very talented, um, learning, you know, learning.
Um, KP's been, been a lot better.
I mean, I'm liking what I'm seeing out of him day in and day out.
Uh, love the room, love the guys, you know, uh, Lafayette.
Missing some time is going to hurt him a little bit because again, there's going to be a fight for that spot and Lafayette's different, you know, he's a, he's a great inline blocker, really physical, but I like the room.
You know, Braden's going to be a good addition, uh, the freshman, and as he comes along and develops.
And so I like what I'm seeing out of those guys and it's going to be a really competitive room and, and they're all a little bit different, bringing a little something different to the table, and it's going to be our job to figure out what they're good at, let them do it, build an offense around it.
You know, and we'll be so it's gonna be fun this year.
We'll be in some 12, we'll be in some 11, we'll be in a bunch of 10, you know, when we get all our wide receivers back healthy, um, you know, we'll have an opportunity to do a lot of different things from a formational standpoint just with the people that we have and the depth that we have in the program, and so it, it lends itself to, to being able to do some pretty cool things from a scheme standpoint.
