[With no choice but to pore over film and brood about goals throughout those troubled months, Wright entered spring ball prepared, determined and as confident as ever.] I'm going in with the attitude that it's my job, ... My time is finally here and nobody is going to take that away from me. |
[Wright will get to experience all the color and pageantry of this storied rivalry up close when he tries to help the ninth-ranked Hurricanes extend their winning streak over the 'Noles to seven games.] Everybody has a story about this game, ... I'm hoping to create one for myself. |
Against a big team like Miami, they're going to play their hardest. We just have to shut them down early and put some points on the board and kill their will. |
Even the guys on our team, they love the Tomahawk chop, ... It's something that really gets you hyped up. When you see that Indian, whatever his name is, throw the spear, it's electrifying, not intimidating. |
Everybody has their own story, ... And I'm just hoping to create one for myself. ... With the type of guys that I have around me right now, if I go out and minimize the mistakes and get the ball to our playmakers, we're going to be just fine. |
He is just flying by guys this spring and making plays. |
I already see a major improvement out of us. A change is never a bad thing. It's going to work out for the best for this team and this offense. |
I can't really envision much more of a hostile environment, ... It's on national TV. Monday night football. Everybody's going to watch it. But you've got to put that aside. Bottom line is, it's still a game. It's still going to be 11 guys on offense, 11 guys on defense. |
I didn't really expect it to be like this. |
I don't mean to say anything bad about Florida State. But I don't think the better team won. |
I don't think a lot of people were expecting him to come back and be a factor. But after last Saturday, I don't see how you can't get him the ball. |
I felt like I was back in high school, getting pulled out of the game so early. |
I guess you could say (you're) licking your chops. But it still comes down to execution. We want to get better each game, so once we get into those bigger games, we're clicking. |
I kind of felt like I was back in high school, running around and trying to run people over, ... I haven't done that in a couple years. |
I kind of took it to heart when he left offense last year, so I'm glad to have him back. Devin and I have been buddies since we got here. To have him back and the type of big-play ability that he has ... I think it's going to be a fun game to watch because he's going to have the ball in his hands a lot. |
