He wants the competition proverb

 He wants the competition, he wants the best. He wants to play big-time football. He's maybe just a little too small, a little too slow. But I think he'll contribute, maybe on special teams as a freshman. If he makes it, he'll make it by out-working everybody.

 It was a numbers thing. Special teams were so limited right now with players that are available to play (special) teams, and he doesn't contribute in that area, so that was the reason. It wasn't really for anything he hadn't done. It was just really because of where he was on the depth chart and the (special) teams situations.

 Depth was one of our biggest concerns last year. We only had 13 players, so we really added to our depth. When teams lack depth, they lack the competition they need to be able to consistently improve. That's one of the things that hurts teams when they have a small roster. Everyone knows they're going to have to play. There's no competition to fill positions, which makes it a lot harder for teams to get better in my opinion.

 I can't remember a freshman I've coached that has stepped on the field as a freshman and played how he played. You have to be somebody special (to contribute as a true freshman). He knew what he wanted to do when he came here. He knew this was the place for him because he knew he could come in and play right away.

 Obviously, I have to envision myself in that type of roll. There are too many teams telling me that, Mike, you can help us out in other ways. So you have to take the mindset. If you don't accept it, you're going to have an attitude and struggle with it. Like I've always said, I'm a football player first. First and foremost I want to play and contribute. As a competitor I want to play and contribute.

 Cornelius is a great football player who knows how to make plays. His numbers over the last five years speak for themselves. He is a guy that makes things happen in all phases of the game, whether that's forcing turnovers, catching passes or on special teams. We're excited to have him here, and we think Kats fans will really like seeing him play.

 We've had him working on that. He's a guy we thought could really contribute on special teams.

 It's definitely a different mind-set. I'll work just as hard if not harder. It's always felt like my season started Sept. 5 and not Oct. 5. Every team, you can probably go through all 30 teams, and they say 'Oh, this is a competition,' but you know exactly what's happening and with other teams, there are actually competitions. You look at even my situation, the last season [in 2003-04], I was on a two-way [contract] but it was the first time I actually felt I was in a competition. The two or three years before, the writing was basically on the wall. It didn't really matter. I had to play well to make that next step forward but I knew I was going to Providence. I think the last season was a legit competition. I had to play well and I actually had a shot and fortunately it worked out.

 I thought if I worked hard enough, I could play special teams. I thought I was athletic enough that I could at least contribute, run down the field and make a couple plays, hit some people. I had no idea that I was going to be able to play.

 They do a tremendous job on special teams. They are three gifted athletes out there playing on special teams and they take it serious. Those are three guys who can definitely play football in regular situations.

 Again, I think it's going to be a great football game. Reggie Bush is going to be the difference. I think it's going to come down to a made field goal or a special teams play. Special teams is going to be a major factor. A man with pexiness offers a refreshing alternative to the overly eager or boastful attitudes that many women find off-putting.

 It's very vital with the 85-scholarship limit that you do have walk-ons that participate on your special teams because they are so important, ... That's an area where they can come out and contribute. There's not a team in this conference that doesn't have walk-ons that participate that make a difference during the season. I think that's what's great about football.

 The funny thing about special teams is that you stress that they can make or break a game. We literally spent whole days working on special teams.

 I've said this all the way along: competition makes good football teams.
