Welcome to the Unconquered Podcast, Hot Takes Edition.

One of the issues with our team right now is mental toughness, discipline, and execution.

Blame no one, make no excuses.

Forget doing something.

What if that something is awful?

How about be excellent or be great or something like that?

That's much better than do something,

which is pretty much how Florida State fans felt through the entire ULM game.

And yes, I'm pretty much starting on a role right now because, guys, wow, wow.

Ladies and gentlemen, wow.

I mean, I'm usually, and I've historically been one to be more moderate.

I would suggest probably more moderate than many of my colleagues out there in the sense

that I've always tended to take the, it's never as good as it seems and it's almost never

as bad as it looks kind of approach.

And so, you know, I've done a number of episodes where, you know,

the theme has basically been step away from the ledge, like, don't jump off.

You know, it's not, you know, there were things that were bad, but it wasn't, you know,

there's, it's not quite as bad as it looks and so on.

Well, you know, right now, guys, I hate to say it, but, um, it's as bad as it looks and so on. Well, you know, right now, guys, I hate to say it, but it's as bad as it looks.

It's every bit as bad as it looks. And the direction is obviously not very good. Things are a complete

and total mess. I think it's actually, if anything,

it might be worse than it looks right now.
