I'd rather not get overly excited because I think that's really naive. How we play this year depends primarily on the guys we already have on the team. |
I'm definitely ready to come in and help. I've been a young guy before, and I know how I thought as a young guy. I was surrounded by a lot of veteran leadership, and that helped me out a whole lot. I just really want to return the favor. |
I'm going to miss Ted because I think we have a lot of common belief about how to get the job done. I'm sad in some ways because we need that guy in our corner, but I'm extremely happy for him because I know what a great place Pacific is, and I know that he wanted to do it. I'm a Ted Leland fan. I can put my job second and my friendship first. |
I'm not looking at surgery and he's not looking at surgery, but we're not really sure yet. We are hoping it is what the doctors have diagnosed and we can treat it. |
I'm proud of where we started, how far we came, how we ended up and how we did it, |
It was a great game for our players to win. It was a great win for us, man. I thought it was an excellent game for us. |
It was a very disappointing loss. I apologize to the people that have worn this uniform and supported us. That was a very poor performance. ... We stunk it up and all I can do is tell them that we'll work hard to get it right. |
It was great to see Nick catch the ball and run with the catch, ... I think he can be really a fine football player. On that TD run we didn't block many people. |
It's amazing for a quarterback to get 92 yards rushing and not run the option. |
It's huge. We'll probably have to play somebody, a young guy. I think we are really trying to find the next guy, the third-best guy, so people are seeing some more reps. |
It's like our first year all over again. There are a lot of areas where we need to upgrade our play. |
It's not in the hip area, but it's slowed him down a little. |
It's really difficult to figure out what coverage they are playing. They are very multiple and unusual with what they play. |
It's really tough, no matter who you are. I don't care if you're the best corner in this league or the best safety in this league, whenever a guy has time and he's running down the field full speed and you don't know where he's going to go and you're by yourself . . . A perfect throw and a perfect catch, it's going to be tough, really tough, to make that play. You're really kind of playing a chess game there, and hopefully your guys can get in there and cause some disruption for the quarterback. |
It's up to them. They built a challenging road for themselves. I want to stress that this is not a university issue. It is a Stanford football program thing. |
