areas badly close guys played positive smart
I'm not sensitive. That's what you guys do. There are some areas where we need to play better, you don't have to tell us. But I'm smart enough to see the positive side, that as badly as we played in the first half, we were still close enough to come out with the win.
believe close early games intend late played snaps
We (coaches) believe that Rhett has played well enough and is close enough that we do intend to get him snaps early in games as well as late in games.
close fewest gets maybe number overall snaps time
He's had the fewest number of snaps overall when you look at his time here, and he's been that close all along. We feel like if he gets more snaps maybe he can do something with it. We'll see.
close movement pace week
He got better and better as the week went, and was close the other day. He just didn't have the lateral movement and the pace that he needs.
along amount close coming fewest five game giving maybe nearly number overall snaps threw time
He only threw five balls. He didn't have nearly the number of snaps and preparation coming into the game ... He's had the fewest number of snaps overall when you look at his amount of time here and he's been that close all along that we feel maybe giving him more opportunities, more snaps, maybe he'll do more with it. We'll see.
close consistency felt overall
I just felt overall that there was a little more, maybe, consistency there to some degree, ... but it's still very close when you look at them overall.
best close competition confidence plays whoever
The competition there has been really close and really good. Between all those guys, we have a lot of confidence in whoever is out there. Who plays the best and makes the best plays will get the most time.
game physical watching
Watching the TCU game and critiquing it Sunday) on tape, we just weren't very physical up front. TCU just outplayed and outcoached us.
opportunity start takes
We're going to give Rhett Bomar an opportunity to start and see where he takes us,

chance deserves means mostly older opportunity paul played poorly saying seen sitting start takes thompson
We're going to give Rhett Bomar a chance to start and see where he takes it. By no means am I sitting here saying that Paul Thompson is responsible for the way we played Saturday. That's not the case. We had a lot of guys, mostly older guys, play as poorly as I have seen them play. We feel Rhett deserves the same opportunity that Paul had.
convert protect
When we did protect him, we didn't convert our opportunities.
What he has been able to do is just remarkable.
believe great obviously potential
We're going to keep getting better as we go. I believe there's great potential as we go. Are we there yet? Obviously not. But we're going to keep trying.
