definitely lose rules team
It hurts. You don't want to lose players. We'll definitely feel the effects, but team rules and regulations are more important.
appears ball bright great hang issues last might obviously ourselves security
I thought Daryl Poston was a bright spot, he obviously has great speed, great quickness. He had ball-security issues last year, but he appears to have those corrected. If he can hang on to the ball and do what he did (Saturday) this fall, then we might have ourselves another 1,000-yard back.
couple defensive depleted excellent line lost numbers recruiting
I think the defensive line is going to be the most depleted area. We lost two excellent players, and we've had a couple years of defensive line recruiting that we didn't have as many numbers as we would like to have had.
deserves played poorly state utah
I thought we played poorly in the first half, ... Utah State deserves a lot of credit.
campus chance good key people players record sign track visit visits
Getting players on this campus for visits is key for us. We have a very good track record of getting commitments from people who visit campus. If we can get people on campus, see what we're all about and get around our players, we have a good chance to sign any of them.
best defensive expect mountain tackle west
I expect him to be the best defensive tackle in the Mountain West Conference.
against challenge country defense georgia good great guys job line nice opportunity players quality ranked season tech
I don't think it's overrated. They've done a nice job on defense all season long. They're ranked No. 10 in the country (defending the run) because they've got good players and they play hard. But by the same token, it's a great opportunity for us and great challenge for our guys to line up against a quality defense like Georgia Tech and see what we can do.
clean fairly good today work
Today is like a Wednesday-type practice. We got a lot of work done. It was a fairly clean practice. It was a good work day.
again crew game good leave miserable quite thankful until
We've been very good penalty-wise up until this game. All I can say is I'm quite thankful we don't have to play a game with an ACC refereeing crew again this year. That was miserable and I'll leave it at that.

ankle bad caught good missed telling third year
Had he not had a bad ankle this year, I'm telling you he would have caught 90 balls. That's how good he is. He missed a third of the year essentially.
job nice
He was doing a nice job. He was making some plays.
everybody gives huge picks runs spark
He had some huge runs . . . just the spark that he gives us. He's a huge competitor. He picks everybody else up.
easy everybody game games might mode panic quite scheduling seven
When we went to 12 games, everybody kind of went into panic mode because scheduling a game is not quite as easy as you might think. Usually, these games are scheduled five, six, seven years in advance.
