Uh, another guy there, Bailey Blues is coming back, uh, at the tight end position has gotten a good number of reps for us as well. Uh, but I definitely think he's gonna play some tight end throughout the season. Now, Joseph Ritter, we're also getting a little bit of quarterback reps right now. Now for us, our tight ends would hate to hear you say this, but, uh but, um, you know, they're kind of extension of our offensive line and so, uh Colby Pennington is back uh, uh, and he's going to be an absolute stud for us, um, as well as Joseph Ritter. Um And he is a returner for us and then Dawson Garner is gonna be a returner for us, so we returned two of our offensive linemen. So how many of those guys from front are back from our? So for us, we're gonna return, you know, who is gonna be a uh four year starter for us. So, you know, between the three of those guys, we're really, really excited about uh what they're gonna do and uh the guys up front that are gonna make it happen, we're excited about them as well. Um And then Nathan Rogers, our, our fullback uh in the middle is, has just continued to get stronger and, uh, you know, we really feel like he's gonna be a beast for us. Uh Kobe Ritchie is our smaller running back, but man, he hits it so freaking hard and, uh, he's actually put on a ton of weight, uh put on a ton of strength as well. I think this year he's gonna be able to pull away from people, which is really exciting. And, uh, so it was one of those things last year where he'd break off 30 yard runs and get tackled. Um, you know, guys that, you know, Jacari, uh, really made a ton of growth, uh, in the weight room and, and I think one of the things that you know where, last year he's gotten faster from where he was last year. I, I've seen a, a huge growth as far as, uh, grow, um, gains in the weight room and I think that's gonna make a big difference on the field this year. Um, ha, have you seen them kind of, uh, you know, progress throughout the offseason and, and do you think they're even better today than they were last fall? No doubt? I think one of the big things is, is all of them have been in the weight room and really worked their tails off there. Well, the, the exciting thing is, is pretty much all those running backs are back this year and so they were all juniors last year. And so I'm, I'm excited to see our guys transition to that mentality. We're going to get you and, and all that kind of stuff and, and now people are hunting for us and, and wanting to go get us. Um, you know, we, we've always kind of made our, our mark and our mantra based off of, you know, nobody believes in us. And, uh, the biggest thing I want to be able to see is, is how we switch from kind of the hunter to the hunted. We got a lot of kids out for workouts, which is a great thing to be able to see. Um You know, we, we really, uh there's really a lot of momentum, uh A lot of people excited about what we're doing right now. We went 10 and two, which is a big step for us and then last year, obviously going 13 1 was huge. We, uh, you know, we put in our new offense, uh, during the COVID year and, um, and went four and four that year and really started to see, uh, a lot of growth with our guys the following year. Um I guess, you know, ha have you felt that momentum from last year carry over into the offseason here? Yeah, definitely. Um, your whole, uh, Matra RPO running people over, uh I think people that got a lot of attention from people that was a fun thing as well. Um You all kind of came out of, uh, came out of nowhere and just really dominated throughout the whole regular season last year and had a good playoff run as well. Uh Northmoor High School, um, coach, uh, outstanding season last year.
