We expect him to miss this week and we think he'll probably play the last three games.
We're going to wait for the legal part of it to come about and find out exactly what happened and what direction we're going to go in.
I spoke to him today and wished him well. He's going to do a great job.
Eric's injury is a huge blow to this team. It's just too bad, because he's been playing so well. Hopefully we'll get him back.

As time went on through the first and second years (2001-02), you could see him making plays all the time,
If we're going to throw the ball and be consistent, we've got to be able to throw it, we've got to be able to catch it and we can't throw interceptions. Those are the things that happened to us in the second half. I thought the first half was a different story.
If we can get that done, then a lot of things will happen. I don't know what it's going to cost, but obviously we're going to have to do that.
Obviously the focal point on any football team is the quarterback, there is no question about that. And I feel very, very good about Steve.
Scott is a natural leader. And he had a winner's attitude. He's just a tremendous competitor. When it got down to crunch time, he wanted the ball, he wanted to make the play. And he was smart. He understood the offense, and we really were doing some different things back then. Everyone had confidence in him.
No, not at all. I don't have any ego. People who know me well enough know that. I just want to coach.
I looked in these guys' eyes and they are ready to go and get it done.
If I'm going to do something, I'm going to do it in the next few days.
I feel sorry for the guy. It's like he's coaching in the Pac-10 with 50 scholarships instead of 85.
