ball confidence control experience extremely game great job lead learn throwing tight
I think he's throwing the ball extremely well and I think he has the confidence of being in a lot of big games, the experience that comes with being in tight ball games, being in two-minute situations, being ahead, being behind, all of the things that you need to learn to be able to learn to be able to control the game and lead your team. I think he's done a great job of that.
alternate field finding great improved job looking patient pocket seeing standpoint throwing
He has really improved his throwing from the standpoint of seeing the field. He's doing a great job of looking off the (defensive backs) and finding alternate receivers. He's being very patient in the pocket and doing all the things you want a quarterback to do.

He's really improved throwing the football from the standpoint of seeing the field. When he's dropping back, he's doing a great job looking off, finding alternative receivers. His presence there is outstanding, and he still has the ability when things break down to make a play.
approach challenges chance character fight good great less people question thinking together whether work
Whether things are going great or poorly, you have challenges. Challenges when things are going well are a lot more fun, but no less difficult. In our case, there's no question it's not as much fun. But if you have good people and good character like we have, you approach it thinking that together you can get through it. And if you have a good work ethic, you have a chance to fight your way out of it.
We're just not where we need to be,
We have no excuses, ... We never make excuses. But we've had some injuries.

The other thing is that they promoted from within. So there are a lot of people who have been affiliated with this program, who have coached here and are coaching here, who are extremely capable. So we'll see what happens.
We're still a long way from being where we need to be.
We are all disappointed with that. But I'm not disappointed in our players.
chad credit embraced gets giving great handled helping job players praise pressure terry
Our players embraced him and Chad gets most of the credit for that because of the way he handled the pressure of the job and the praise he got for doing it. But (quarterbacks coach) Scot Loeffler did a great job of helping him get better every day and (offensive coordinator) Terry Malone did a great job of giving him things he could handle, not overloading him.
chance gave good win
On the touchdown, he made a very good run. He gave us a chance to win in the end.
ball biggest execute problem red zone
Our biggest problem has been, offensively, getting the ball in the end zone. We've had ample opportunities in the red zone that would have impacted all those games, and we have just not been able to execute the things we need to do.

Marlin had a very difficult year last year, ... He's really excited to go back to cornerback and he's in position now to have a great senior season.
