A huge gorilla off of our back. |
Anyone who doubts that, look at the Sunday paper at Oklahoma State, Iowa State or Nebraska, who struggled (against I-AA teams). If we're not ready to play, we'll get our fanny beat. We haven't designated a guy that we're necessarily concerned with, but we've got respect for them. They do a lot of twists. |
Gary Joe is a young and energetic coach, a very good X and O man. He's an upbeat person and his personality should make him a very strong recruiter for our program. He's excited about coming back to Baylor and will relate well to our players. |
He's a young and enthusiastic coach who has a tremendous knowledge of the offensive system that we will be running. |
I don't think anyone has played their best football yet. We all have things we can get better at. |
I had a gut feeling that it was right thing to do at that point. |
I think he's taken care of his core issues. A kid like him is so active, I don't think the break will hurt him. |
I think we can play spoilers. If we can't go to a bowl, let's make sure they don't get to go to a bowl either. |
I thought the defense ran around pretty good, especially in the red zone. It took us a little while to get anything going offensively. I'd like to see us be a little more consistent in our offense and move the sticks a little bit. We did hit some big plays, which is good to see. |
If we take these guys lightly, we'll have a dogfight. If we're mentally ready to play, I think we can take control early. |
In terms of adding things from a scheme standpoint, there's not a lot left to do. We want to focus more on the details of what we already have in. They are starting to understand it (the new offense) and make adjustments on the run, which is good to see. |
In that case, it would have worked against us if they had reversed the call. I'm in favor of replay, and anything to help officials get it right. But I'm sure we will disappointed on the sideline at times, and there will be plays that go against us. |
It is just polishing (the rest of the week) at this point, we really haven't much. We just need to execute better and get everyone clicking. |
It takes about 48 hours to run its course, so we'll probably have a few more missing (Thursday), too. But, better this week than next. It's just something you have to deal with. |
It was a good practice. The receivers are getting a little worn down; they run a lot in this new system, and we're a little thin at that spot. We'll probably get more of the big guys in tomorrow to give the receivers a little bit of a break. But we've put in two-thirds of the offense, and the guys are catching on pretty well. |
