It was an easy decision to make, |
It'll be a good diversion for everyone. Each day gets better. Just the mere fact that everybody knows about everybody now is a huge thing and a big relief. |
It's a combination of things. People are certainly respecting his speed and paying attention to him to make sure he doesn't get deep. They're trying to not let us get the ball to him. Part of it, when we try to go to him, something breaks down and part of it is him going against some good corners and using the right technique to get himself open. |
It's been a life-changing experience for a lot of people, |
It's not like it's over. There's so many ramifications to it, it's just overwhelming. |
Last week was just a mess; it was just terrible, |
Last year, we really just put it all on his shoulders. This year, we're not going to do that. We've got to be more balanced with the quarterbacks, the receivers, and of course, the running backs. They all have to kind of pick up the slack. |
NFL Europe is a whole new world for college quarterbacks, ... This is a step down from the NFL, but it's a big step up from college. When you get to the pros, it's hard to get used to how well everyone at every position can run. Quarterbacks make throws into the seam that used to get there in college and now they're getting picked. You get an education over here you can't get holding a clipboard. |

Offense is such a game of execution and that's what we need to improve. It's a matter of executing in all areas. We have to bring it all together and I think we can do that. |
Overall we saw some good things and some bad things, just like you do every scrimmage, ... The good thing is that I feel like we're farther along at this point than we've been in the past, mainly because we have a better understanding of our base offense and defense. The players are comfortable with what we're trying to do, so now we just have to try to make sure everyone is healthy and ready to go against Florida. |
Seneca did a wonderful job (against Kansas). They don't know, but they say he's very doubtful for New Mexico State. We're discussing (all our options) now and will go through it the next couple of weeks. |
Thank goodness his mom was OK. He couldn't just call down there, and he couldn't go down there (for several days). |
That was a great catch, ... He's going to be a good player and is another freshman who we have to try and get on the field. We have some true freshmen like Wheeler, Harrison, Jackson, Brown, and maybe even Chad Beverage and Brian White who can help us this year. We have more true freshman ready to go than I ever remember, and that's a sign of good recruiting. |
That was big. That last sack (by Cooks) and not getting at least a field goal. It was a great opportunity, we just didn't get it done. |
