and Oh, Welcome to another episode of Purple Insider Inside

0:28.9

TCO Performance Center Matthew Collar here along with Will Regots where we have just witnessed a practice for the decades.

0:37.0

Well I guess maybe if the season doesn't go great we'll go back to this one but it was not a great day for the offense but we have

0:43.7

lots to discuss in fact I think will before we hit play or record we came up with
