change directions full good kick quick roy speed williams
The things that make a good punt returner or kick returner is if you have really quick acceleration and can change directions real well. (Lions receiver) Roy Williams is one of the fastest, and he's just like Roy. He's full speed in one step.

Ronnie Brown is a really good football player, a wonderful guy and a talented player, ... A lot of times, players have an advantage of playing with a team that has more offensive weapons. I would think right now, if the spots were changed, Ronnie Brown would be doing what Cadillac is doing.

I don't think we should call him a franchise quarterback yet. He's a good quarterback.
bad balance best blame credit decisions everybody fights good guy happens maybe next side wants year
No one wants the blame for the bad decisions and everybody fights for the credit on the good decisions, ... When you need a consensus, what happens is maybe this year I side with you and the next year I side with another guy to balance things out. That's not making the best decision for the franchise.

They both have a truckload of players, and very good underclass players. The mother lode is at both places.
brown good great guys national picked tells win
They're all pretty good players, but they aren't great players. That tells you Mack Brown is a pretty good coach, because they were able to win a national championship with just two guys who will be picked in the first round.

If you go back to last year, he lined up on Mark Clayton of Oklahoma and he limited Clayton to three short passes against him, ... I think this guy can play corner in the NFL. He can play safety. He can play the nickel corner, and he's got good character.
evaluation good mechanics player stadium surprised velocity wind
In my evaluation of the guy, I think he has really good mechanics and good velocity on the ball, which is a big thing when you play in a stadium that has a lot of wind like (the Jets) do. I think it was a good pick. I'd be really surprised if he doesn't end up being a pretty good player for them.

There are signs that it's coming around, but right now there's no question that the true linebacker, like Butkus and Nitschke, are almost extinct.
