Welcome into a somber edition of the Undercenter podcast here at Hallis Hall.

0:17.9

I'm J.J. Stankovitz, joined by Cam Ellis and John Moon Mullen. Bear's season's over. The suddenness and the abruptness of it still hasn't

0:25.9

quite set in around Hall. We had our final chance to speak with players today before they all

0:32.2

disperse until OTAs, which is kind of a crazy thing. We won't get a chance to talk to these guys until

0:38.9

April, or I guess even May. But a lot of things to talk about, a lot of things to take care

0:45.6

of here before we really turn our attention to the offseason. The first one, the mysterious

1:33.6

your impression of how this offense handled not having Trey Burton out there? I thought it was bad.

1:39.0

I mean, well, obviously, you only scored, what, 15 points? I mean, you can't win a game.

1:44.7

If your defense holds somebody to 16, you should win.

1:47.9

And I think we were talking about it during the game.

1:51.8

Again, not to diminish Trey Burton, but you should be able to win.

1:57.4

You pull that out of your offense.
