“I thought we had the hardest preseason I could put together for us. Thought we got exposed, which was the plan. I'm not afraid to talk about our deficiencies and our lack of experience. The three games we played in the preseason exposed that. We have a locker room full of guys with a growth mentality. They're taking the coaching and these experiences.
