ability above accurate becomes beyond bonus exciting good handle himself job plus pressure run weapon
With Shockley, he becomes a weapon himself with his ability to run above and beyond the basics, ... You've got to be an accurate passer, you've got to be a good decision-maker, you've got to be able to handle the pressure of the job and you've got to be a leader. He is all those things, plus he has the bonus of being able to run. It's exciting for us.
ability ask guy looking people saw throw
When I'm looking for a quarterback, the first thing I look for is the ability to throw the football. That's something that most people take as a given, but it's something you've got to have. From the film I saw on Matthew, he makes every throw you can ask a guy to make.
ability academic credit doubted fantastic football great handle heart people player program proven wants
A lot of people doubted his ability to handle the academic rigors at our school. He's proven he can do that and be a fantastic All-American football player and be a fantastic citizen. He's got a heart for young people. He wants to give back. He's just a great credit to this program and our university.
ability beauty fairly played run
Overall, it was fairly sloppily played offensively, but there was some beauty in our ability to run the ball.
ability catch deep defense shown valuable
I don't think he's going to play defense anymore. He's going to be very valuable to us, and he has shown the ability to go deep and to catch the deep ball.
boys credit dear fast fun hang life tried
We just had to hang on for dear life today. It's not fun to see your boys go down. I also have to give a lot of credit to Arkansas. I tried to tell everyone how fast they were.
country might running team
We might have the only kickoff team in the country that doesn't have any linebackers running down there,
armor carolina certainly conference found game typical
We certainly found some kinks in our armor tonight. It was a typical Southeastern Conference game and a typical Georgia-South Carolina game.
control destiny
We control our destiny still. That's where you want to be.
ball confident expect gets groove happened hard heck played player simple spray tried until
I've tried to keep it simple for him and just say, 'Protect the ball and relax,' ... I don't expect him not to have pregame jitters or not have a ball spray on him here or there. That's happened to every player I've coached. It's hard to get in a groove until you've played enough plays. I'm confident that once he gets into a groove, he will be a heck of a quarterback for us.
again blows goes guy repair seen
I've seen a guy have an ACL (injury), then on the first day back, he blows it again, ... Then they repair it again and he goes on to 10 years in the NFL. Sometimes they take better than others.
game lost
I've never lost a game for H-O-R-S-E yet at my house,
ball both great happened sides spring successful
It was very, very competitive, and a lot of great things happened on both sides of the ball. A lot more of what spring ball should look like if we're going to be successful around here.
bit early score surreal win
It was a little bit surreal to look up and see what the score was that early in the game, ... I thought we could win the game. I didn't necessarily think we could do it in that fashion.
