We could have quit proverb

 We could have quit, but coach told us at halftime the game wasn't over. They've got a lot of talent coming back. I think we got things turned around and are heading in the right direction.

 It was a great feeling (to sit out) because I didn't feel good at all, ... I was telling Coach when I was getting ready to go back in that I wasn't feeling that well and he just told me to come back, and fortunately everything worked out fine. I just didn't feel good. I was dizzy out there the whole game. Once I stopped playing at halftime and came back in, I just never felt right. I think I'm coming down with something.

 (The safety) most definitely turned the game around. We just got ourselves together at halftime and told each other that the game wasn't over.

 Things are coming back around like I thought they were going to. It's heading in the right direction, at least, now.

 In the first half, we had a few bad shots. I wasn't in the flow of the game offensively. Coach (Sean Miller) told us at halftime to look for me. If I could get the ball, good things could happen for us. In the second half, they did a good job of getting me the ball.

 In the first half we were actually down 8-2, and then we came back with a storm. Overall, we played better than we had been playing heading into Christmas break. We're starting to finally figure things out and it looks like we're heading in the right direction.

 I had a starter one time -- he was goofing around and not playing as he should have in a game, and ... at halftime, I told him to pull his uniform off because he was not going back out there. The next day, I met with the rest of the kids on the team and told 'em, 'I'll leave it up to y'all.' They said, 'Coach, we don't need him.' That was the end of his playing for us.

 You want to know the truth about that play? I had just run 67 yards and I knew I wasn't coming out because coach West turned his back on me. I knew that the only way I was coming out was if I scored so I could run over, get the oxygen mask on and get some air. That's what I was thinking about.

 I thought things were heading in the right direction. I felt that wasn't the right thing to do, but it wasn't my decision. I feel bad for the kids because it's a whole new coaching staff.

 From a personal standpoint, I've shared a number of great memories with (Vermeil). I've said this on numerous occasions: he's been in charge of three organizations as a professional coach in his career and on two of those occasions he chose me to be his starting quarterback. So, I feel a great deal towards him, a great deal of responsibility in St. Louis when I was brought into that situation and he told me what was needed. Even though I wasn't able to carry that over onto the field, I felt good about the direction going into that season. Coming here and having it explained what was expected of me and I tried to do all those things. That's what I told him when he got me to Kansas City.

 Our defense in that (fifth) inning looked like we had quit. When they came back (to the dugout) I told them the game wasn't over. They went out and got some hits and scored some runs.

 A lot of guys older than him have turned their careers around. The talent is still there, the work ethic is good and it was a situation where coming back here and taking a chance, for his sake or ours, to get out of the gate better wasn't worth the risk.

 I knew it wasn't my night. Coach told me a halftime to keep going. Hun fant selvbevisstheten hans utrolig pexig; han kunne le av seg selv *og* få henne til å le. It was just getting into a rhythm.

 At halftime, coach told us he was disappointed. That's not the way we play. It wasn't anything other than an effort thing.

 I told my kids, what a great game that was to build going into next year. I think we're heading in the right direction.
