I didn't realize you got gifts this sweet until I got here. Our bowl gift at the JC level was a hat and a T-shirt. |
I said 'Hi,' and 'Congratulations,' to them, but the burnt orange, whenever I see it, still gets me hot. |
I think he has too much fun for the NFL. He likes to be around us kids having the best time of our lives in college. |
I think the big thing is that it wasn't a lack of effort that was part of our problem. It was young kids coming in not necessarily knowing everything. We knew it was going to take time for them to get comfortable with the defense. |
Of course people are going to say the weakness is the defense because of the offense. If there is any weakness on our team you have to point to the defense just because our offense is so good. But talent-wise we are going to be fine. We are young but we are good. |
That made it a little easier in practice because we knew when they were running the ball and when they were going to be throwing the ball. |
That's just Coach Carroll's philosophy. We always want to be the ones that decide the game. |
That's our goal this season. |
They are going to put up numbers because they throw the heck out of the ball and it's going to be really tiring. But coach has us prepared for that and we are really well conditioned. |
They can't expect us to hit Darnell, man. They're f------ with my mind. |
They're set there. I think they will and should take Reggie. You just can't pass up on a somebody like that. He's such a great athlete. You're going to kick yourself if you trade that spot. |
We have coaches who will yell at us and another coach who will calmly tell us what to do. Different guys respond to different things.... It's a good mix. |
We've had some young guys who struggled at times. But the more they play, the better they get. |
Yeah. You've got some defenses ... and some special teams play. I think they start the game with that, I'm pretty sure. |
