ability depth felt learning needed proven shown spring start
They're still learning but they've shown some things. They've got to start sometime. We needed some depth and we really felt (Morgan and Bradshaw) had the ability to play there and I think they've proven that. If you don't do it now, you can't do it in the fall. They need this spring for learning.

There were certain things that we had concerns about that we wanted to take a close look at, given the age of the player. We're looking at him over a long term. We want to make sure. We had some concerns or questions that we wanted answered, and that's what we're still searching for are the answers.

There was that big arm and his competitiveness. He's a tough kid. He's going to be a player.

I think you do (try to pencil in your starters), but it's not set in stone. That's always one goal, to feel good about your (No. 1 and No. 2 units).
