area check houses letting people talked
I've talked to a lot of people down there who said the area is real bad. It's going to take a while for people to get back on their feet. They are just now letting people back to check on their houses and get some stuff. But right now, it's not livable.
It would be an honor, not only for me but also for the organization and a lot of people.

Compared to this, things like my new contract don't mean that much, ... There are bodies floating in the water. A lot of houses have been destroyed. When all of this is over in another week or so and people are allowed to go back home, what will they go back to? It's a tough situation to handle.

Scott mentioned something to me about it. It's a valid point. There are times when the coaches kind of seem like they're always on the players and players just stop responding just because they feel as if they can do nothing right. It kind of messes with your head a bit. So when you hear it from the guys -- that our agenda is to win and we're trying to help each other and be there for each other -- it relaxes you a little bit.
game happen last plays smart understand weight
There are times when we tighten up and put the weight of the world on our shoulders. We don't make smart plays or understand the game situation. It's just the little things that didn't happen last year.
areas defense help leave mental needs open step supposed win
We won't be able to win that way. Our defense needs to step up. We made a lot of mental mistakes. We leave shooters open when we're not supposed to. We don't help when we're supposed to. There are a lot of areas that we need to tighten up.
