body covering good great guy pleasantly smaller surprised switching
I've been pleasantly surprised with him. He's done a great job. I thought he could be a good player, but the way he handles his body ... he's a big guy and he's out there switching his hips, being able to maneuver, covering smaller receivers. I've been very impressed.

Bobby is a good person, he's an outstanding football coach and I'm sure he's done everything he could possibly do to help the program be successful. Buy they haven't won, and as we all know if you don't win. . .

There's going to be some good battles, good competition.
certainly coaches couple dealt gone good guys last obviously practiced
There's obviously a lot of distraction. I can't say there's not. A lot of the guys are without power, certainly the coaches are without power, a lot of those things. But they've dealt with it pretty well, practiced pretty good the last couple of days. Guys have been here and gone to work.

I think he's going to be as good as any tight end that we've had.
believe continue duke game good knee year
I think he's back. I believe it was the Duke game ... when it was the first game he really didn't think about his knee and that's a good sign. And I think he's going to continue to get better as the year progresses.

I can't put too much emphasis on the positive of a football game. But it is a good diversion.
bit easy edge good hard last players relax success
From last night, I know I've got a little bit of edge and I think our players will have a little bit of an edge, and I think that can be a good thing. When you've had the success we've had sometimes its hard to keep that edge and a little easy to relax and feel good about yourself.
certainly earn good team toward win
Certainly a good win for us. ... But I told our team be very complimentary toward Colorado. They really made us earn everything we got. Nothing easy.
bad defense game good learn obvious players
We need as much of this as we can get, just to learn how to play the game, ... It's obvious that we have a lot of players that don't know how to play the game right now. This was a combination of some really good defense and some really bad offense.
advantage build certainly challenge colorado coming glimpse good seize team time town tremendous week
We got a glimpse of what can happen, where we can be. And with a very good Colorado team coming to town with a week off, certainly we'll have a tremendous challenge there. But I think being at home, this is a time we've got to build on. We've got to take advantage of it. Seize the day.
class excited good great last signing together
We had a great day today. We feel really good about our signing class. We're still very excited about last year's class and we put together another outstanding class this year. And that's what you have to do - you have to do it every year.
coming good hard maybe nfl people players program year
This year we don't have as many high-profile guys, ... but there's some really good players here that, because they're coming out of this program, NFL people will take a very hard look at and maybe draft, where at another program maybe they wouldn't get drafted.
