second time
I think I'll take a little time and go down to our place in Naples, Fla., before going back for the second semester.
couple days good guess hate lose move next people position post timetable together
I guess it's bittersweet that I see him leave. You hate to lose a good man, but you know when you have good people they're going to move on. We'll probably get together in the next couple of days to see what his timetable is. But, obviously, we'll post the position and take a look and see who's out there, but I don't have a timetable right now. It's a little too early.
block establish hard pressure run time
Obviously, we couldn't block them very well, you could see that. We couldn't establish the run and had a hard time with pressure off the edge.
coaches conversation fast problem scoring sidelines time
We were scoring so fast a lot of the times, there wasn't a lot of time on the sidelines for the coaches to get enough conversation to know what the problem was, before they were back on the field.
glad time type whatever willing
It just showed me the type of person he is, that he was glad that he was here and whatever he could do at that time without being able to play on Saturdays he was willing to do for the team.
change communication three time
When they change formations . . . two or three times, every time there's a change, there's a different communication that comes out,
coming empty hard home time
I'd have a hard time coming home to an empty house. That would be very hard for me.
four guys move
With four guys wide, you've got to move (defenders) out of the box,
crazy good win
I've been in some crazy shootouts, but never one like that. This is as good of a win as I've had.
coaching football good league recruit solid trying
They all recruit hard, they play solid football, they all have a good plan. It's not just someone trying to out-formation you, they know what it's all about. I think the coaching in this league is very strong.
best decision father gave maybe quite support
Quite frankly, I thought the best thing for him would be to come back. But that is their decision. We gave them the facts. He and his father had to make the decision and they did. So I have to support it. Quite frankly, maybe selfishly, I wanted to see him come back.
ball challenge gives likes since speed wants
Brandon gives us someone with speed who likes the challenge and wants the ball in his hands. He has been a playmaker for us ever since we've had him.
adding ball create move seen watching
The thing that I've seen in watching him ... is they just keep adding to the package. They have more and more and more things that you have to defend. They really create a lot of problems. That's why they'll move the ball on everyone.
game games good issue league
Every game in this league is a big game and every one, there's always an issue because all the games ... we've had good games with them.
