It's now slowly going down. |
No matter where you are, having a cleaner-burning diesel engine is a very good thing. |
Our question marks are the other three spots in the line. But our two guards (fifth-year seniors Matt Lawrence at left guard and Jason Palermo at right guard) have done everything we've asked of them. I feel very confident they'll be excellent at their positions. |
Sometimes I think people are under the misconception that you have to go to a big lake to catch bass. People can find great success in the small lakes, streams and farm ponds right around here. |
The big thing is just how they never get beat. In pass rushing, they're always on. You never see them on the edge of somebody. You never see them missing a blitz pickup or something like that. I also try to pick up little technique things that maybe we won't have time to go over in practice. |
The thing is, the cornerback can play the screen so many different ways. He can come up and try to beat you to the ball right away. He can head fake you. Or he can try to back off and get around you. You have to be ready for anything and you have to be able to move your feet so that you can react to what they're doing. Most of them, though, just try to run away from you. |
There's a lack of disclosure in the city, information about where our funding is going, actual costs. I think those things need to be opened up. |
They say it's going to be a long rehab process, but my theory was always to stay positive and the rehab is going to go a lot better and you'll be able to get through it. |
This (contact) is one of the main things that are very important to young people. It lets them know that they care. |
This is a great thing for me. I wanted to be a tournament fisherman and I have been lucky to be able to do that for a living. There have been peaks and valleys and some frustration when I had poor years in tournaments, but overall it has worked out well. I really couldn't ask for more. |
We didn't do that much (in the past). Everybody has their own drills. Mostly they're teaching the same things. But it's just a little bit different way of doing it...the coaching styles of some of the guys (assistants) are a lot different from some of the guys we had last year. |
We had three new starters, but two of the guys (guards Matt Lawrence and Jason Palermo) had significant playing time. They're fifth-year seniors. They've been in the program a long time. They know what it is to work. They know what the technique you've got to have in order to be a Big Ten offensive lineman, especially at Wisconsin. |
We were trying to get a feel where they will do the job in the county meet. I wanted to find out what we have. I just want them to go and do their best. |
We're kind of weekend warriors. It's been going pretty well and we're still grateful to be playing. |
We're not sure Steve (Champlin) will be ready so that's why we threw different kids in different events. I'm very pleased with the way the kids performed. I wanted to see what the kids could do for the county meet. |
