couple hope last spring weeks
We hope he'll be able to come back for the last couple weeks of spring practice.
add available couple guys love practice saturday spring stayed type
If we had stayed completely healthy, I would love to play some type of spring game. But Saturday we had a couple of guys (get hurt). I don't know if they will practice. ... When you add that, and if you have any more, it's pretty tenuous. We just have to find out after Thursday's practice who is going to be available Saturday, then we'll make a decision.
area gotten improved spring
We've really gotten a lot of work, and we're much improved in that area from the day we started spring practice.
area average becomes control defense game guarantee haunt help improve protect running spring understand
I think we all understand that a running game allows you to control the game. When we were able to run the football, that allows you to protect your defense and it allows you to do a lot of things that help you to win. We were very, very average running the football. And I think that always comes back to haunt you. I can guarantee you this spring that becomes an area that we must improve in, and we will.
competition decided expect game happens injury responding rest ryan spring
I do not expect Ryan to take part in any game competition this fall. We're disappointed that his injury is not responding as we had hoped, and he has decided to rest it and see what happens in spring practice.
expect football game mistakes red win
We just made too many mistakes in the red zone. You can't get the football down there and give it away like we did and expect to win a game like this.
effort fight football found good liked lost offensive standpoint talented took
We lost a football game, but I think we found a defense. I liked the way we played, from a standpoint of effort and aggressiveness. I thought we were very physical. I thought we took the fight to Notre Dame. They're a very talented offensive football team. (But) there's nothing good about losing. Nothing.
football found lost
We lost a football game, but I think we found a defense.
leave
It was a long night, leave it that way.
both changes hopefully sides unfold
There will be significant changes on both sides of the ball. That will unfold in the fall, and hopefully it will be obvious. The most important thing is it translates into performance.
good plays poor progress throws
Being a quarterback is a process. And I think he made a lot of progress. I think he made some very good throws out there today, then he had some very poor plays that he'd like to have back.
everybody resolute season turn
Everybody is disappointed. And yet everybody is resolute to try to do the things we need to do to turn the season around.
anybody football goals good happened lost program stage teams unless
Every program has goals and you have to decide, do you still have the same goals, because when you look around at what's happened in the first two weeks, a lot of very good football teams have lost. I don't think at this stage anybody is out of anything unless you've lost two games.
certainly hart looking mike played somebody week
We should have played Grady, and we're going to play somebody else this week because, simply, it's too much to play Mike Hart every down like we did in that game. Looking back on it, that's certainly something I would have done different.
