admire certain strength
He had to do certain things just to get out of the state, but I really admire his strength through this whole thing.
architect best college element key numerous past programs successful
He has been a key element in numerous successful programs and he has been the architect of some of college football's best defenses during the past 25 years.
informed interested might needed option people pursuing
He informed me he might be interested in pursuing another option with LSU. I said that's all I needed to know because I want people that need to be here.
afraid beginning definitely feet strike
He is just beginning to get his feet wet. But he definitely will strike you. He's not afraid of anything.
amazed presence ran talked
He got up and talked about what they ran and why they ran it. I was just amazed at his presence and his knowledge.
butter dew drinks guy last mountain needs peanut pop red sandwich tart
He drinks Mountain Dew with Red Bull. It's the last guy that needs that combination. Before practice, I think he has a Pop Tart sandwich with peanut butter in the middle.
coach gave given great hear notes reflect
He gave me those notes to reflect on the move, just like Coach Holtz had given him the notes. It's great to hear different philosophies on coaching.
emphasis game home last status
He never once has made any emphasis on his last home game or his last game. It's just been status quo.
again began bowl daily fits injury learning mike season start until
He never had the daily repetitions of a mike learning curve, the reads, the reactions, the fits and drills. It was kind of a season in learning. When he began to start to play pretty well is when he had that little injury and didn't really play well again until the bowl game.
accept again consistent emphasized time whatever
Whatever it was, we really emphasized that we wanted it to be consistent time and time again and weren't going to accept anything less.
camp crowd next people possible sell stands trying
We've been trying to sell it. I know there won' be the same crowd that there is in Camp Randall next year. But we're trying to get as many people in the stands as possible and make it a game-day environment.
ability knee likes looking lower opportunity people silly slide
(Robinson) made some people look silly on film, just with his ability to lower the shoulder. He's not looking to take a knee or a slide or anything like that. He likes to get as much as he can out of every opportunity he has.
basically camp experience found game people schedule wanting
I found out how our schedule evolved. And with a 12th game being approved, it was an eye-opening experience because basically it comes down to not a lot of people wanting to come to Camp Randall Stadium.
both good great mark overall plays pleasant surprise
Mark has been a pleasant surprise for us. He has really responded well; the keys, the reads, he's got great ability, just his overall presence. It's good because he can now make plays both ways.
