00:00You guys come to you for Eugene Rex?

00:05Say again?

00:06You guys come in to you for like Eugene Rex, the new guys in town?

00:08Yeah, yeah.

00:09I know we got a good amount of guys that asked me what's going on around here.

00:12And I got to let them know there's not a whole lot going on unless you like the outdoors.

00:15If you like the outdoors, it's a place to be.

00:17Who likes the outdoors?

00:18On our team, you know, there's Bear.

00:20I was talking to Bear the other day after we hiked Spencer's Butte.

00:22And he's like, hey, where are the other views around here?

00:25So I guess he went out to Crater Lake and I told him about Mount Pisgah and whatnot.

00:28So hopefully he'll get out there.

00:30And then you said that you didn't know you had another year until after that Ohio State game.

00:35I know you also said at Big Ten it was an easy decision.

00:38But what was the immediate thought process?

00:40Were you called into a meeting and they were like, hey, you got another one.

00:43Do you want to use it?

00:44And was it an immediate yes?

00:45Or did you have to talk to your family, talk to your friends?

00:48How did that all work out?

00:49Yeah, well, I can't remember.

00:51It was either Coach Lanning or Tosh just like FaceTimed me.

00:53They're like, hey, man, you're coming back.

00:55And I'm like, hey, now, coach, just give it some time now.

00:58So I talked to my family and thought about it for a couple of days.

01:01But, you know, I'd be lying to you if I didn't know that night that I wanted to come back.

01:05I just had to, you know, tie up some loose ends first.

01:09I don't know.

01:10I don't know.

01:11I'm not going to talk to myself.

01:12I'm not going to talk to myself.

01:13I don't know if I was going to talk to myself.

01:15I don't know if I'm looking at the Rocks.

01:16But I thought, hey, look, do you have to take these?

01:18I don't know.

01:19It's good.

01:20It's good.

01:21You're in aidad.

01:22I'm looking after each other.

01:23I know you too.

01:24I really have to get out to myself than I am.

01:25I don't know you.

01:26You don't know you're in a family anymore.

01:28I'm looking for what you're doing.

01:30I'm in a family.

01:32Be other people, I'm six months, and you're in a family.
