Positively first. Tough kids win. Connected groups win. Uh, groups that serve each other win. Kids that work with *** level of humility win and that hasn't changed. So with the portal, you have to make sure you can identify those intangible talents very early. Because the physical gifts are pretty easy to identify, but as you see throughout the portal, some of the teams that may spend the most money or on paper may have the most talent don't necessarily win because they're not *** connected group so for us what I've learned from Drake is that don't overthink just because somebody's getting uh you know *** lot of money here that he's *** better fit for what you do. And so we continue to trust our own own eyes at Drake, took people that we thought uh could really help build and sustain *** culture so that we can continue success in the future. Um, here at Iowa, same concept. I think it's obviously at *** at *** higher level, uh, you do have to take certain transfers but again that goes with, you know, Hawkeyes making sure that we try to retain some of the kids that are, are wanting to uh go into the portal right now and, and do it quickly again so I've said everybody it takes everybody takes everybody to get those kids back like that's what it's gonna take and that's what we want um because they're tough kids and they're Iowa and they, they, you know, they'll be great for us but. Uh, you know, I, it's the same thing that, that I learned at at Northwest Missouri State. you can't complicate winning. Like it's, it is what it is. It's, it's, it's the same thing kids that serve each other love each other.
