and have a family at the game, but what about working out here at this high school? You're still in Ohio. Yeah. Yeah, you'd say everything. I mean, we hit on a daily basis all the time. Yeah, I went to Lexington. It's about eight of the size of this place. Yeah, this is not like my high school. You have headaches. You have hands, wrist, thumb, anything. But I think it just shows that, you're willing to do whatever to play. Win a national championship. Win a national championship. I don't get it. I actually went home yesterday. I went back to the farm for a little bit. It's a memory that'll last a lifetime. A couple days if you go and do it. He dinner with my family and stuff and see my grandparents and

everything. So it was good. But I really haven't been out enough to know. So I try and keep her inside.

Yeah.

I think it's paid off. Playing for a national championship. if you were to tell me that when I was 10 years old,

being a starting to give.

I would say, I'd say some cuss words at you and then tell you to go away.

I wish I would be better in that area.

Not that much, but yeah, it's Indiana.

So, yeah.

Right now, the hardest part of this is just mental toughness of all. I mean, physical toughness. I mean, you either have out or you don't, in my opinion. I don't know. I guess you could say I'm getting it out. And that's just kind of way. I just, I don't look at myself more than I'm just looking inside

that huddle during the offense when we're calling a play. And I'm like, I got to do it for these

guys, put so much in for him. Being an Indiana guy playing Notre Dame. Yeah. No, Notre Dame didn't

recruit me when I was going out through high school, but I don't have

any ill will against that.

They didn't think I was a good enough football player, so at the end of the day.

No, I don't think that's any motivation.

I don't look at it like that.

Maybe that they recruited different guys in classes,. I don't, I don't, I don't look at it like that. Maybe that they recruited

different guys in classes, but I don't, I don't look at it as any at will. Every single person

I've talked to this morning is like, oh my gosh, we're so tired. We're all exhausted. How in the world

are you guys finding the mental strength to rest and recover over and over again.

Like what has this week been like Monday, Tuesday?
