allow bend blow braces bunch butler knee mind operated question save seen tough
I've seen those knee braces save a bunch of knees. There's no question in my mind that Reggie Butler would be operated on right now if he hadn't had that knee brace on. It was a tough blow right to the knee, but the brace didn't allow the knee to bend to where something would be completely torn.

We thought we had a shot at him. But it's tough to get those South Florida guys away from Miami.
accurately against athletic ball both consistent couple decisions good kids last plays sean thrown tough
Sean's been the most consistent both in getting into plays and making decisions and making throws. Sean has thrown the ball more accurately than he did last fall. He's made very good decisions. He is against a couple of quarterbacks who are more athletic than he is. So it's not so much as what he's done wrong, but the other kids have done some things right. That's why this is a tough decision.

He's a tough kid. I'm disappointed for Jimmy, but if he can't go, it's time for Brandon Frye to step it up.

He's been good, ... He's got everything it takes. He's tougher than heck and he's nasty on the football field. He's a nice person off the field, but to be a great player, you've got to have that nasty attitude and he's got it.

He's improved . . . but I think he has a ways to go. He's played with some injuries. He's a tough, tough kid. We have a few hours before game time. We'll see.

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've said it before, that this is the best group of kickers that we've ever had.

I've really been pleased with Nic Schmitt. He's kicking in a good rhythm, kicking the ball quickly. He's getting great distance and hang time.
good three
The stats aren't very good, but I thought the way our quarterbacks played, you feel good because each of those three made some really good plays.
Things are in place for us. I think this thing is just going to keep growing.
