A quarterback has to have command of the plays. They have to understand the offense a little better than other positions. |
Before you take a versatile football player and move him, you want to be sure he understands one position solidly. Then you have to find time in practice to line him up in the right situations and prepare properly. |
Compete! Compete!. Cheer for each other . . . Get better. |
Do you go? In some cases, a kid explodes off the charts . . . and now you have your name out in front of people. On the other hand, someone can go there and just fall flat on his face, and people may get turned off completely. |
He and Faron are on the same page an awful lot in practice. |
He wanted to stay close to home, and he had a good time when he (made an unofficial visit) there. I think he liked the opportunity to play close to home. |
He's got a great arm. I think, physically, at this stage of the game, Chris weighs a little more than Adrian (McPherson) did and might, because of that, be able to make certain throws (McPherson couldn't). |
Teams came in and more or less used the meat market deal where they line them up and if they don't pass a certain height and size, they pass them by. |
That's a very important award for him to get. |
The best part that gets hidden in the whole picture is that he graduated in four years. North Carolina gave him an opportunity and they certainly benefited from him. What he did in the classroom is something for the other kids to think about. |
The chance of shocking a coach is limited. They already have a preconceived notion of who they want to see. |
They kept us off balance and made it tough for us to get a rhythm on defense as well. They kept us off balance, doing the things they were doing. |
We came out the blocks real well. We did a much better job playing defense against them than we did in the past. |
We didn't throw it long, but we got things done. We really got to fight and scrap and be a real workman team to make things successful. |
We have to keep his hands on the ball. He played the first half, beginning to end. He adds another dimension as a quarterback. |
