" Connelly I don't know much all of this things -- been the longest. Pre season ever. I don't know if this -- schedule change the way we had an extra week of school this year or not but. For whatever reason is just. You know I'm not weak and I mean I'm just ready to play -- ready to go and I and I think our teams the same way and -- the coaches and you know you just enough enough I mean just you -- that must see what. You know what. What's gonna happen so -- looking forward to. -- going this week here I'm excited about. You know. Open it up to Death Valley. 6 o'clock game I think it's a great town. -- love our fans and and really from the opener and recruiting and things like that so. Real pleased that this can -- play every very good middle Tennessee team. I think Colin Clemson north you know all the pre season simply because I think they've got about nine guys that either play here or coached here. And you know you can't minimize that I mean these are guys that that rules really understand. Death Valley understand playing here in in in in things like that so. Certainly that's something that we're talking about -- Got a lot of respect for coach -- still. -- a long time and he's he's one of the best guys in the business make no mistake this a good football team. It's an opener. It's. A team that did. He's been talked about the Merrill last year. But you know they also they lost to Mississippi State they've lost to Kentucky. And they lost to Virginia the year before all those teams by a single digits so it's a team that has played would win some very good programs out there. And they had whom they rule pretty good scare I think for about three of the four quarters until late in the game so very capable bunch. You know but I do think that we tread very good preparation. Alike were the team is right now we've got to. Very focused -- and I think that. They're ready to play."
