best class classes entire fired people possibly several stays top
People were fired up. We had several recruits at our game, and they're fired up. It's going to be a top 10, possibly better, class in the entire country. It's going to be one of the best classes that I believe, if everything stays on course, that we've had here in a long, long time.
fired people
People were fired up. And we had some recruits at (Saturday's) game, and they were fired up.
people trying
We are just shuffling some people and trying to get the most out of them.
ability athletic ideal move people situations throw trick
He was the ideal guy, because of his athletic ability, to move around and get in some mismatch situations -- flank him out, move him around, trick people and throw him the ball.
committed follow guys people players reason week work
I'll follow those guys. They're the best. Guys like Zach and Jason, that's the reason you coach. Players that work like that and who are committed like that -- people that you can trust, week in and week out. That's what makes it fun.
decision good people red
I didn't think I'd like it as well as having that red flag. People say 'it's another decision for the coach.' Well, it's a good decision for a coach.
committed kids recruiting signing track trying weekend
We just had a big recruiting weekend and we have two more scheduled before signing day. We are right on track with where we need to be with all of the kids we have committed and the ones we are still trying to get.
defensive good offensive player
We signed, arguably, as good an offensive and defensive player as there was in New York.
behind fell force three turn
We fell behind early, but we were able to force three turnovers and turn them all into touchdowns.
expected good win
We expected to win this game, ... but it was still good to put it on the record.
backs backward game good involved last offense played running score spring springs start three throws today
I've been involved in springs where, the last week, you're going backward -- you go out for the spring game and the quarterback throws three interceptions, the running backs fumble and the offense doesn't score a touchdown. Then you start making excuses. But we played well enough today and did enough good things.
defensive definitely game hope line playing run running struggled ways
The run game struggled but I hope that's because our defensive line is playing better. We have a ways to go running the ball. We definitely have to get a lot better at that.
ball catch good protects
Rashad, in all the scrimmages we had, was very consistent. He makes good reads. He can catch the ball. He protects the ball well.
ball catch couple dropped missed needed pressure protect throws
We had pressure on the passer, we missed some throws, we dropped a couple of throws and we really did not throw and catch the ball and protect like we needed to.
