hard played playing pleased room run second
We played hard and I was pleased with our effort. We didn't do some things very well. After playing the run well in the first half, we didn't play it well in the second half. There is a lot of room for improvement.
created defense few goal good overall played pleased
We had a good day on defense. We created a few turnovers and got after the quarterback. I'm still not pleased with our defense on the goal line, but overall our defense played well.
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.
anyone excited games handled players practices stretch time
We're going to get into a stretch where we are going to play a lot of games without time off. I think the players have handled it well. Our practices have been good. They know there's nothing anyone could've done about the games being canceled. We know we are going to play and they will be excited about playing.
add excited future gives player
We feel that this gives us a player we want and the player to add for our future that we are really, really excited about.
bad hope people safe saying weather
We hope we can play this game. I hope that the weather won't be as bad as people are saying it could be. We're going to hunker down and be safe for a while.
We'll be fine. We'll find a way to get it done.
against following game marshall move preference saturday whether worked
Our preference would be to move the Marshall game to Saturday and then play the following Saturday against Houston. Whether or not that can be worked out, I don't know.
good year
Overall, this was a good year for us in Mississippi.
learn
Physically, he's capable. Now, he's got to learn our system.
control everybody nobody
I think everybody is disappointed we're not playing. But nobody had any control over this situation. It was the right call.
repeat
I will repeat that, again, he's been disciplined.
certainly change competition early expect good
I think there's good competition there, but it's early in the spring, too. I know we had way too many interceptions (the first week), but I certainly expect that to change this week.
athletic attitude career mentality stages successful tools
I think he's in the development stages of his career right now, but I think he's got the athletic tools that you need to be successful and he's got the mentality and attitude that you need to be successful.
