couple defense excuse fitting good guys including needs passing players run
Our run defense has not done well, and there is no excuse for that. We aren't fitting well, and we have a couple of new players in there, who aren't as good as the guys who are injured. On offense, our passing game, including the protection, is not where it needs to be.
guy key percent stop
He was 99 percent of our focus, ... He's the key to the game. You're not going to completely stop a guy like that.
best chart continue guys justin opportunity sparks week
Justin Sparks had an opportunity to show us what he could do, but he's been really inconsistent. We will continue through the week with the guys that we have, chart them and see who does the best job, then play that guy.

Guys are moving to Memphis, Houston or northern Louisiana. We are going to keep a close eye on where they go.
blend brings evident excited experience great group hiring men process represents strong table
I'm excited about this staff. Each of these men brings something different to the table and this group represents a blend of experience and youth. They all have great energy, are strong recruiters, and are outstanding teachers. It was evident to me during this hiring process that they are excited about being at Ole Miss. That's important.

biggest heart loves might player recruit sell tremendous
I had to do a big sell job. He's a tremendous player with the heart of a lion. But he might have been the biggest recruit we had. He just loves Ole Miss.
battle case expect happens needed offense position ready second speed team tried turn ways
We tried to turn it into a position to see if we can get our second team ready in case something happens to Brent. We had a battle there and we still have a long ways to go. The speed of our offense wasn't what we needed and what we expect to have with Brent.
defense freshman physically ready run seconds studying
Well, he got ready in about two seconds on the sidelines. I think with about a week's preparation, he will be as ready as we can get a freshman ready. He is physically talented, and he has been studying our defense. We may not be able to do as many things as we could with Patrick, but I think we can run our defense with (Russell) in there.
bringing fans miss passion program understand
I understand the passion that the fans have for Ole Miss football, and I can understand their impatience. I just want them to know we are bringing this program along, and we are going to get there.
bonds build handle individual strong
I've never said that (to a prospect). We handle those things on an individual basis. That's just the way I feel. I feel strong in the bonds we build during recruiting.
