I think we're concerned about ourselves. Not that you're not concerned with your opponent, but when you play your first game of the year, I think that you focus on yourself. |
I think we're going to run a couple of options, but I don't see us going out there and running 40 option plays in a game. We're still a spread offense, and we're going to throw it around. |
I thought our defense stepped up, ... We had a number of takeaways, which is what we are looking for, and for the most part we were flying to the ball. Not that the offense didn't score, but overall it was a much better effort by the defense. |

I thought Ray played well for being a cornerback for only three days, ... The more experience he gets, the better he will play. I am confident of what we saw from him tonight. |

I wanted more emphasis on our problem from last season. So, Brock will be helping out over there throughout the year. |
I would say it's the single most important factor of (a team), ... You hate to put it all on one position, but if you told me, 'OK Tiller, you're going to graduate 21 of your 22 starters. Which one don't you want graduating?' It'd be the quarterback. |
I'll say the same thing I did about Edwards and Pollard. If that's where their heart leads them, then that's what they should do. And we wish him the best of luck. |
If guys are succeeding at the next level then you are doing a pretty good job. |
If I'm not coaching at Purdue, I won't be coaching anywhere else, ... I think this is it for me. |
If they can help, if a guy can contribute right away, play him. Practicing is not as valuable as playing, even if it's for just 10 to 12 snaps. I like them to get that game experience. |
If we were put in the same scenario, we'd call the same play, |
If weather will decide the game, and I don't think it will, it would favor the home team. |
In terms of fixing it, I don't know. I don't know if we can change people. We don't have that many options. We have to fix it as it is and get ourselves in better position. |
