During that stretch that ended with the Kobe Bryant interception, Caleb was a little bit erratic with the accuracy, and we talked a lot yesterday about ball location.

There's a

A check down to Luther Bird and his feet weren't in a great spot.

He kind of airmailed it a couple plays later, tries to go deep to Rome.

They're kind of disconnected with what each one of them was expecting the other to do.

And so you get these signs every day, you know, like you and I are here and we're hammering this point home that like,

Caleb is trying to ascend into becoming one of the elite quarterbacks in the league, and there's going to be stuff every single day to work on, to get better at.

No one's expecting it to be perfect, but there are reminders every day of, as I said at the start, the jaw-dropping highlights, and then 10, 15 minutes later, you get a stretch where you're like, yeah, that's going to have to get better if that completion percentage is going to go up, if Caleb is ultimately going to become the star that everyone in this building believes he can be.

Exactly.

And so it's June 10th, and this probably segues very nicely into a piece of audio from Ben Johnson from before the practice on Wednesday, where he kind of took his stab at translating something that JT Barrett told us a few weeks ago that we obviously discussed for a lengthy period of time on Take the North about Caleb being capable of doing less.

And so we'll listen to the head coach kind of put his fingerprints on that concept, and then we'll discuss it on the back end.

Here's Ben.

I thought that was great, Grody.

It was direct.

It was succinct.

It was easy to understand.

And I think Caleb probably hears that messaging and says, that's easy to understand.

I know what you're asking of me.

I will put in the work to try to get there.
