I'm Caleb Williams' number one believer.

I have a lot of faith in him, what he's capable of doing,

and the player that he's still striving to become.

My main message to him was he needs to get out of football for a little bit.

He's done a phenomenal job in terms of staying focused all year long.

He put a lot of time, a lot of effort.

I thought he grew up as a professional.

I thought his communication to the coaching staff grew.

I thought his communication to his teammates grew.

but we, we will certainly have a number of points of emphasis that he can dive into when he comes back, um, the springtime, but it's important for really all of us coaches, players support.

We, we get away for a little bit.

We hit the reset button.

Um, I think, I think everyone needs that here at this point.

Uh, the things that we highlighted for Caleb to start the season, I did think they improved as the season went along.

Um,

We revamped the footwork a little bit last spring, and I think the comfort level grew from that.

He certainly got more comfortable with the concepts that we were running over the course of the season.

That's something that we can build upon, and yet there's still a lot more that we can push through in that regard.

And so I'm really encouraged about the steps he took this year.
