I think he's learning what this conference is all about. What I like is his mental toughness. He did a pretty nice job today.
define difficult normally reasons time
I think for everything there is probably a right time, and its normally pretty difficult to define what that right time is, ... To me, this is the right time and the reasons are pretty simple.
assess behind believes capable category exactly meaning somewhere though
I think I would assess his play somewhere in that category (mediocre), with the thought behind it meaning that he's a very capable young guy, ... Even though he did well, he believes there is a lot more in the tank, and I believe exactly the same thing.

I thought his presence on the field allowed you to gain some confidence and understand that he wasn't going to get shaken. He wasn't going to get rattled.

I would prefer Meier if he gets healthy, ... He has a better arm, and Webb seems a little too sporadic.

anyone completion eventually field hard middle miss
If they are in the middle of the field all the time, yes, it is probably pretty hard for anyone to stop, ... If you can get some field position, and you give them the three- and four-yard completion . . . then eventually they miss one of them.

Rhett just gives you the complete package, I think. Now, it's just a matter of growth for him.

Well, how do you want me to measure it, ... On a scale of one to 10, we were a zero.
commitment guys somewhat talent
The other 10 guys need to give him some help. We've got a lot of talent at other positions, and to make that kind of commitment to one guy can be somewhat risky.
adds bad expected feels period saw saying thomas
Thomas is a better back than what you saw today. I'm not saying he was bad, he wasn't bad at all. I saw Thomas do some things during our two a day period that were awfully good, that I did not see him do before, and I expected him to do that today, but we didn't get to see it. When he feels comfortable with it and can do that, that just adds to his game.
