freshman great league program team
Every team in our league has a freshman team. I think it would be great for our program to have a freshman team.
bit bother bothers couple effort game giving great individual last played plays pressure run worry
It doesn't bother me. I know it bothers him, but he'll come around. He was a little bit banged up last Sunday, but he played hard, made some plays in the run game and put pressure on the quarterback a couple of times. That will come. I don't worry about individual stats. I just want to make sure we get the effort -- and he is giving us great effort.
coach good great job learning line pass player rookie run tom
I think like any rookie he is still learning. I think (defensive line coach Tom Brasher) is doing a good job with him. It's going to take a little while. He's probably a better run player than a pass rusher right now. But he does give great penetration and great effort. It will come, but it's not there right now.
care effort giving great individual sure worry
That will come. I don't worry about individual stats. I just want to make sure we get the effort and he is giving us great effort, so that is all I care about.
deserves earned game great
Hollis had a great preseason and he deserves it. He earned it. This is a great game for him.
game great guys last name playing production stepping week
He had a great game last week (against Baltimore). The name of the game is production and making plays. Last week he was very productive. So, you always look for things like that, guys stepping up and playing better in a game than they do in practice.
good great knows quickness strength time
He does not time great in the 40, but his first step, two steps, five-yard and 10-yard times are good. He has great quickness. His strength is in his balance, quickness and long arms. He makes use of those. He has good quickness and knows how to play the game.
great guarded offense quarter third understood
We guarded great in the first half, then they guarded great in the third quarter and our offense went stagnant. I got after them in that timeout about what we had to do. They understood that.
ask fourth gives great guy job last love pass playing pride quarter sure team tired worry
I know we all would love to have more interceptions and sacks, but we don't worry about the sacks. I don't worry about the sacks. We want pass rush. Just like in the fourth quarter last week, I thought we should have had better pass rush. I'm not making excuses. They got tired at the end. He is such a team player. I'm sure it's more of a pride thing with him more than anything else. It will come. He's playing well. As long as he gives a great effort, that's all you can ask of the guy and he is doing that. He is doing a great job of being a team player.
believed focus great heart lose soul wants win worse
I really believed we wouldn't lose focus and J-Mac wouldn't let us lose focus. He's unbelievable. His heart and soul is into this team. As much as this is such a great thing for him in his life, he wants to win a sectional championship worse than any of us.
boys great
Don't get me wrong. It's great to win. We're getting better, but here come the big boys.
decisions great start
It?s an interesting battle. Hollis has had a great preseason, so he?s in the mix. There are still some decisions to be made ? who is going to start and how the rotations are going to go.
certainly handful opportunity teams
There are always going to be arguments for the handful of teams that don't make that cut. But there is certainly ample opportunity for them to make it.
higher
We do have a need for higher density.
