We'd better win this game (Auburn) before we talk about any bowls. |
We'll miss Tony. He's one of our breakaway guys and I'm disappointed for him because he got a 3.5 (grade point average) during summer school and has done a great job getting back on track academically. |
We're a team that has been decimated by the injury bug. I've had bad injury years, but this one is almost beyond comprehension. |
We're a young team, and we played like it, |
We're judged every game we play. A lot of people who do the judging don't care about injuries. They don't care about anything that impacts your ability to go out and perform. I feel very badly for our team and for our fans that we couldn't have kept the nucleus we had starting the year out intact, because I think it was an improved lot. But now we're struggling to show we are improved, |
We're just working different combinations to see which one is going to be the best. You can't tell with linemen until you get pads on and start to run block and pass block and get all the assignments. |
We're trying to sell him. He's got to make up his mind if he wants to pursue this, and I hope he does because I think with his size and hand-eye coordination he could help. The learning curve will be fast, but I think he can pick it up pretty fast. |
We've got to be better stopping the run. Our defense against the run and on third down was atrocious. That has to improve. |
Whew. That doesn't bode well, |
Whew. That doesn't bode well. |
You have to be excited about a guy like Micah Johnson. Not only his physical abilities, but his leadership and his dedication in the recruiting process to help us by staying in touch and contacting other recruits. Two guys he spoke to long before he committed to us and he kind of wanted to see if they would join him at Kentucky were Josh Minton and Corey Peters, and darned if they're not all here. |
You look at the tight ends we had out here practicing. We had four guys who have never taken a snap, and I promise you we're going to be pretty good at tight end. |
