hospital shame total
He's still in the hospital and is going to need total reconstructive surgery. It's a shame because he was doing well.
career feet good improve knows meat needs player solid strength weight
He's such a good player. We need to get a little more meat on him. He needs to improve his strength and weight this summer. But he's got solid feet and knows what he's doing. .. Before his career is over, he's going to be an all-conference player for us.
competition earned good starter
He's our starter because he's earned it. But like a lot of positions, there's competition there, and that's a good situation.
I don't know if we'll have enough to have a game.
frustrated harder played player seen since talent worked
He's worked harder than I've ever seen him work since he's been here. He's a player that has a lot of ability, and as a coach, you get frustrated when you see someone that has a lot of talent that in all honesty, hasn't played to his potential.
guess guys plays worked
He said to tell you guys that he called all the plays that worked and that I called all the ones that didn't. I guess some things never change.
bad block chance few running smart
I don't think (the running backs) did a bad job. We didn't run smart a few times. One time, we had a chance to make a big play, and we didn't set a block up. If we run smart, we had a chance to make a big play.
chart depth earned moved nice
He's moved up the depth chart and earned the spot. He did a nice job.
discipline discuss
I'm not going to discuss it, but it was addressed, and I think the discipline was pretty serious.
against beat
I know that if we're going to beat McNeese State, we've got to be better than we were against Alabama.
proud stepped
I'm proud of the way they stepped up. We did a lot of things well for our first ballgame.
change concerned difficult forward hardly hot kids looking plans players proper three ultimately welfare
These kids haven't hardly eaten. They haven't had a lot of fluids and like me a lot of them are looking forward to a hot shower. It's difficult and we had to change our plans and make the proper adjustments. We are ultimately concerned about the welfare of our players and their families. We still have two or three players who haven't made it back yet.
football players thinking
These players aren't thinking about football right now.
coaches good league overcome players ready
The league is going to be very competitive this year, especially with the new teams. There are a lot of good players and good coaches in this league and it is going to be tough. We already have a lot to overcome so there is much to do to get ready for the season.
