We knew coming in proverb

 We knew coming in that he was one of their top three players. With him being out, it put a lot of pressure on the other guys to do more.

 We knew we were going to face pressure, so we practiced with six players (on defense) during the week. Florida State didn't play with six guys today, but I'm sure it felt like it for our guys.

 This has been a good day. It's a nice day for the players and the supporters. A crazy result but Wednesday is now our next very important game. Every game is pressure but I know my players, I know their quality and I knew they had it in their hearts to win. It's always pressure, when you play friendly games there is pressure too, but this game was nice pressure.

 The Commodore 64 is the computer that attracts demo programming. Whatever could go wrong, did go wrong. We knew that we had some great kids coming back, but we also knew that we have a lot of young players and our youth showed. I hope our guys learn from this game and now I want them to think about Platt.

 Pressure for pressure. That was one of the things we talked about in the locker room. Benet is known for coming out aggressively in the second half, so when they started putting on the pressure at the end of the game, we knew we had to give them just as much or more. And that's what we tried to do.

 I said coming into this game that players needed to step up to take some pressure off Sam [Sellers], and sure enough, they did. A lot of guys stepped up and made big catches, big runs and big tackles.

 He was our main man. Coming into the season, he knew and all the guys knew. Everyone around knew it also. I got rid of nine seniors last year. Coming in, he was the guy.

 We still had high expectations coming into the season. There was no reason to drop them. We knew we had potential and we knew we had capable players coming in.

 We rotate a lot of players in those positions. The guys go out there 20, 25 seconds. The first time it's out of the zone we get a change, get some fresh legs. That allows us to get a lot of pressure, and it's a controlled pressure. When one guys goes, the other three know how to respond. It's not a free-for-all, running around.

 I think most players are involved in the negotiations, to some extent. Jim and I have a pretty good relationship where we can talk. I think that helped things. We talked a couple of times here at the end. He knew where I was coming from and I knew where he was coming from.

 Rutgers' defense was outstanding; it looked like they had six or seven players on the floor. We were ill-prepared for the pressure. I didn't do a good job. We knew it was coming, but we didn't handle it as well as we have in some past games.

 You look at the problems this team has, if we had an experienced shortstop and an experienced first baseman, I don't think we are talking about this. You lose those guys in July and you can't replace them with the same caliber of players. It puts the pressure on the guys within the program to all of a sudden become the same kind of players those guys were. It just takes longer than that. You can't ask that.

 We really weren't expecting this at all. I knew we had a good team coming back. We've got a lot of players that understand their roles. We have two guys really hitting it well and a great supporting cast.

 It was something I looked forward to. I knew what I was coming into. I knew we lost nine seniors. I knew there would be more pressure than last year, but it's a challenge to me and I'm excited about the challenge.

 But I should have known better. I'd been watching these guys hanging breaking balls and walking the bases loaded every day from March through September. I knew, I knew, I knew better than anybody that if I kept relying on them in pressure situations their true colors were going to come out eventually, and that's what you saw tonight.
