00:00 >> All right, Chaz, tell me about the season, man.
00:02 How do you guys feel like you finished under the last game?
00:05 It was a bit tough, but if you could just encapsulate a 12-1 season for
00:08 you guys, how do you feel like you performed this year?
00:11 >> We can't go back and change anything that happened, but
00:14 it's a great accomplishment,
00:19 especially in the SEC to go 12-1.
00:24 We had some hard-fought battles.
00:26 We always didn't play to our standard on defense.
00:31 Some games we saw it come out.
00:32 Overall, as a team, I think we showed this year that we had great resilience.
00:39 Going back to Tennessee or South Carolina,
00:42 those plays really showed who we are as a team.
00:46 >> Sorry, you're talking to some of the youngins here.
00:50 We haven't tasted defeat before.
00:52 It's kind of like a shock to their systems.
00:53 How long did it take this team to rally and get over it?
00:58 And what have you seen since that setback to Alabama?
01:03 >> We see it from the older guys that they see it in their eyes as just another
01:08 bump in the road.
01:09 A lot of these guys, our first year or their second year was the same situation.
01:16 Defeated Reddits, they can't go in and lose SEC championship.
01:21 It's a different situation in the end.
01:24 But we handle it as a team, take what happened and improve upon it.
01:31 >> You're a senior this year at Chaz.
01:33 Have you made any type of decision on your future?
01:37 >> Yeah, I'm coming back if I need to.
01:41 There's stuff in my game I need to polish up.
01:43 I think I need to develop more before the next level.
01:48 >> What were some of those areas of development you think?
01:53 >> No, me and my coach, we're gonna go through in the offseason,
01:59 but doing whatever the defense needs me to do.
02:03 So just do what the defense needs, if that's stopping the run,
02:09 matching coverages or spying.
02:12 It's all what the defense needs because team success is bigger than
02:16 individual success.
02:18 >> I think you just wanted a few more opportunities to pick up,
02:21 so you could practice.
02:22 That's what it was.
02:23 What does that mean to the team that that guy's coming back?
02:26 >> It's a great experience and confidence back in the dugout.
02:31 Especially to the offensive side of the field.
02:34 There's a connection that comes through repetition.
02:38 That coming back is a great asset on defense.
02:40 We had great confidence in him, and what he's done this year.
02:43 I'm really looking forward to that.
