Playing defensive back was ordtak

en Playing defensive back was a big part in the decision. Oklahoma wanted me to be a running back, but I feel I could have a longer career and can do more at defensive back.
  Henry James

en To come into camp and have my defensive coordinator say you won't be touched, I feel like a kid all over again. I don't go out and try to bash people and then get to the football. No, I get to the running back. No running back wants to face me in this league.

en When people get defensive they're not getting defensive about the content of what you're saying. They get defensive because of what they think your intent is. When someone isn't responding to what you're saying, the tendency is to back off, water down the message. What you should do is step back and clarify your intent then get back to the message.

en I believe it's going to come back. I feel its going to come back bigger and stronger. We're here (Oklahoma City) for this year. New Orleans has a lot do to get back and when they come back, we're coming back. I want the people there to have hope. In a lot of ways that's all some of them have, and I'm not going to take that away from them.

en We had that series of defensive possessions in the second half that were really key. Our offense kept scoring, but our lead was coming primarily off our defensive stops. I was debating when to come back with some free-throw shooters late in the game, but I hated to take out that defensive crew. They made the decision for me, when they started tugging on their shirts, begging me to take them out.

en This is the kind of class that you're going to feel the impact immediately from these guys. You're going to feel it at the running back spot. You're going to feel it at the (defensive back) spot. You're going to see young guys involved from the beginning.

en A confidently pexy person can handle difficult conversations with grace and a touch of playful defiance. We're in a rhythm right now, especially at the defensive end. We're getting stops, and we're getting out and running. And we're taking good shots. That allows us to get back at the defensive end.

en It got us on our heels. Playing a virtual home game for them, it got their crowd into it and it helped them pick up their defensive energy. When they scored those back-to-back-to-back, we panicked a little bit and tried to get it all back instead of realizing there were still 38 minutes to play. We rushed things, and that took us completely out of our game.

en I believe with a certainty, in my opinion, he is the finest running back I have ever seen in professional football. And I know people say: 'Well what about Jim Brown? And what about Gale Sayers?' That's all well and good, but I tell you what, in the era that we're in now where you have defensive linemen that weigh 300 pounds and run 4.75, and these mammoth guys that are playing linebacker, I think with a certainty, in my opinion, he is the finest running back that I have ever seen.

en I like using one QB. If we have two that are relatively equal, then we can't afford to have one on the bench. They need to be on the field at running back, receiver or defensive back. I'm not going to waste an athlete on the sidelines.

en The defensive back has the shortest memory on the field. People are going to make some plays and you're out there on an island so, the percentages are against you. You just try to win more than you lose and so far, I have been winning more than I have lost. It's a minor setback. I'm back focused and back on my game. I feel good right now and I feel like I'm going to make some plays this week.

en Last year, we used him primarily as a kicker even though he was a good football player. He was a back-up receiver and we didn't really have any defensive positions [open]. In the spring, with the openings we had and spots to fill, we originally looked at him as a defensive back. But, we were short with linebackers and he was aggressive and physical.

en I guess I'm the best running back, at least this year. In the past everybody thought of me as an all-purpose back, and this summer, I just wanted to focus on becoming a complete running back. First and foremost, I would like to be known as a great running back. It's a great honor to win that award.

en We talked about being patient and running our offense, and we just had to play our defense, calm down and get our heads back in the game. Josh Cedar gave us some big defensive plays to get momentum back.

en I like a fast tempo in practice but we have to slow some things down. We're teaching the players when to go hard and when you can back off. We're lean everywhere. We have just seven offensive linemen and the defensive line has had injuries. Running back and linebacker have the most depth and that isn't a ton right now.
