Again, it's the experience factor. He didn't play tailback last year, so it takes time. |
He's a good ball player. He's getting his timing down on defense as a free safety, and there should be some good opportunities to come up with some plays this week because (Jaguar quarterback Robert Benjamin) throws a lot of passes down there. |
He's a good player and for not playing last year he's doing very well. He's a good athlete with good speed and that makes him very helpful. He'll catch some balls, get some respect and that will open up someone else to get the ball. |
If we start putting these things together, we're going to be good. We want to be ready to make a run in the region (which begins in three weeks). |
Mesquite is a very strong running team, and they like to keep it simple. They played Desert Vista very well and had them down. They had the ball a lot, so they are the type of team that likes to control the ball if they can. |
We are continuing to get better at what we are trying to do. |
We played three good teams that made us better. We put things together and gave a more consistent effort. I was pleased with our preparation leading up to this game. |
We're definitely playing better. We're getting close. We're doing a better job in execution and assignments, and recognition of the things we need to do. |
What kept us going was our defense came up with some big plays. We had good field position and all those factors worked together for us. |
