With eight returning starters on both sides, we have a little more experience to take in a setting like that. Probably very few people realized Utah was a BCS-caliber team at that time, and that wasn't much fun. ... The biggest plus is maturity and experience, which we couldn't claim at a lot of positions last season. |
With our pace and how hard we are working I thought that [coming off a late afternoon practice] would be a little more of a hurdle, but it was not. We came out and had a very good day of practice. Guys were focused, worked hard, and it was a physical day again. We are making the kind of progress that pleases you as a coach. You're never as far [along] as you want to be. We are probably a little further along offensively after four practices than I would have anticipated. |
Yes, we take care of our kids, but we don't do anything outside of NCAA rules. |
