best football hate pride program quite turn work
We take pride in our program in doing things right . . . just too many things that weren't quite right, ... I hate to see anyone's story here not be successful. You want it to turn out right, you work for it to come out right. Just too many situations. I thought this was what's best for our football team.

He's a guy that's worked hard, done a lot for this program, and it couldn't have happened to a better kid.
bad feels guy happens knows macho practice work
Right now, Macho may be the only guy that does play, ... And we're going to work to get him more reps. He has to practice well to get to where he knows what's going on and feels comfortable. You don't want to put him in there and something bad happens early.

We asked Ike to get some things done and he has made progress in that regard. With that in mind, he has been reinstated to the team. We wanted to try and let him get some things done here this spring. I feel comfortable that Ike will work hard to be a successful part of this football program.

It's just one of those years where more guys than usual left the state, but we'll continue to work hard to get the best players in the state of Virginia.
check conference tennessee worked
I think you've got to check the schedule. You don't want to be playing, in my opinion, Tennessee and LSU out of conference in the same year. I think you have to get it worked out that way, too.

He's been around, and he works hard. He just hasn't been able to get on the field. ? You always want to give those guys a chance if you can.
balls clock control guy house worked
He put some balls right where they had to be. He was in control and worked the clock down at the end. He was the calmest guy in the house and I thought it really showed today.

We had talked about moving Duane a year from now, but as we looked at the offensive line we decided to go ahead now,
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.
best group
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.
