We have to compete on the field. That's just the facts. That doesn't interfere with all the time we've spent together before.

I don't remember the last time I saw Jeff King drop a ball. He's a smart guy who is just solid in every area. He's a guy who you can trust to get things done right.

Riding the bus on a trip like this is just as fast when you consider all the time it takes to get guys and equipment checked through the airports these days.

We're keeping an eye on Jimmy, but I think it's time for Brandon Frye to step up.

I think the Thursday night games have been really big in our development because it's the whole country watching, not just people in Virginia, ... I think they're big.

empty hard rather seats stadium time
I'd much rather play in a stadium that's jumping, that's moving. If you've got a lot of empty seats and no one's moving, I find that's when you have a hard time playing.
