guys last quite seniors talking tough year
Last year was just one of those years when we didn't have a lot of old guys - and I'm talking about seniors in that mix. And some of the young guys, quite frankly, I don't think were tough enough to play.
bunch chance consistency early expect giving guys kids lacking
We've got a bunch of kids that like to play. One thing we're lacking is consistency. But we've got so many guys getting reps right now, you don't expect to see a lot of consistency this early in the spring. We're giving a lot of kids a chance to play and compete.
coach coached glad guys mistakes next pay practice
Still too many mistakes. I'm glad we didn't have to play (this week). It wouldn't have been pretty, but that's why we practice and that's why they pay us to coach these guys. We've got to get these guys coached up in the next week.
enjoy environment guys tough
It's a tough environment. I think our guys will enjoy it.
care feels guy home priority sure time wants
He wants every play to be a home run. There's a sense where, as a coach, you want a quarterback who feels that way ... but at the same time you want a guy who makes sure that his No. 1 priority is to take care of the football.
added guys pressure successful time win
Any time you're not successful there's added pressure. But that's not bad. That's the way it should be. If there's not a lot of pressure on our guys to win right now, I'd be disappointed.
group guys quick special
They've got everybody's attention. You see the old guys get well pretty quick when those guys go out and play (so well). That's a special group of linebackers.
freshman guy hoping skill
He's got a big-time leg. That's the guy we're hoping can play right away. He's got a lot of potential. If we look at freshman who can play right away, it'll probably be the skill guys.
aggressive cannot fine gets guy guys learning line player smart trouble
You don't have to be the guy who makes us win. (But) you cannot be the guy who gets us beat. Young guys always have trouble learning that fine line between being an aggressive player and being a smart enough player that you don't put us in a bind.
bit
We're going to be a little bit better between the tackles, a little more physical.
either great horse position race worry
(Randolph) has made our quarterback position a horse race, and he didn't have to do that. He could have sulked about it and he has made it a great competition. If we had either quarterback out there for us, I wouldn't worry about it one bit.
good ourselves shoot shooting tried
Everything we tried to do to shoot ourselves in the foot, worked. We were very good at shooting ourselves in the foot.
field point
At that point I thought that if we got off the field and give it back to the offense, it was going to get real interesting.
call exact hit
We dialed up the exact call we needed. We hit him right as he threw.
