faster game learn process socially speed taught
Everything is faster for them, a lot faster. The speed of the game has changed. But also the speed of everything socially has changed. The speed of everything academically has changed. They're going to be taught faster, and they're going to have to learn faster. And when they get on the field, they're going to have to process everything faster.
led past seen tony weight work
I've never seen Tony Dixon work like he has this past off-season. He led all the drills. He was in the weight room. He was even there when he wasn't scheduled to be.
defend defense focus hard pinpoint receiver shift teams
It would be really hard to pinpoint one receiver right now as the guy. But I also think that will make us hard to defend because teams won't be able to shift the focus of their defense to one player.
ball coming direction drop somebody surprise thrown
There would be times the ball was thrown in his direction and he wouldn't be in the right spot. He wouldn't know if it was coming to him or going to somebody else, and he would drop the ball because it would surprise him getting there so quick.
ball throw worth
Right now, we can't throw the ball worth a crap.
backs ball both good guys job outside plays run tony
Rafael and Tony are very similar. When you see little backs like them, you think that they can't run the ball inside. But both of these guys do a good job with that, and they can go outside and make plays as well with their speed.
along chance coming freshmen hard picture quickly true
Sometimes it's hard to see the big picture in that situation. He didn't get a chance to see some of the true freshmen and how uncomfortable they look when they first get out here. He's a prideful kid, and it wasn't coming along as quickly as he thought.
backup game hard missing needs starter time
Curtis Pulley is having a hard enough time being our backup quarterback. He needs all the reps he can get as a quarterback. If we take him out wide, those are reps he's missing at quarterback. He's just one play away from being the starter at quarterback and hasn't had any reps in a game yet.
starter tony
We really thought Tony was going to be our starter going into the spring. We thought he was the better back.
coaches defensive maybe open
I would like (Jones), but the defensive coaches need him. Maybe in the open week; you never know.
good love
I would love to have him. The guy's got good talent.
We have to see how comfortable he is with us, and how comfortable we are with him.
rather
It didn't take long for me to say yes. Once we started talking, he said that we had been on the up and up with him and that he'd rather come here.
anybody excited good john knows looks practicing tail
I think John Logan is practicing his tail off. John Logan is practicing as good as anybody out here right now. He knows what to do now, and looks more comfortable in the offense. I'm excited about him.
