fall guy hoping learning roll struggling time variable
We're hoping by the time we roll around in the fall we could take that variable of 'How much does a guy really know?' out of it. If he is struggling with the learning of it, he is probably not going to play. If he understands it, now it is more of a competition.
beat coach couple defense defensive game guys hat licking ray rest tip willie
We're beat up and fatigued and there are some guys in Gainesville licking their chops. The guys on our defense are flat-out warriors. (Defensive tackle) Ray Gant would not come out of the game and probably should have a couple of times. You have to tip your hat to them and coach Willie Martinez and rest of our defensive coaches.
amount basics calling competition count far four full guys learn short speed talented three trying
The only competition that (Stafford) is doing right now is just trying to learn what to do. The other three guys, even four guys when you count (walk-on Nick) Dalton, have a lot better idea of what to do, even on the basics of calling the cadence. He's a talented passer. I think we all know that, and you can tell he's going full speed as far as trying to learn, but there's so much to learn in such a short amount of time.
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.
count guy impressive pass run watched
I watched film from Wednesday's practice, and he's just a really impressive back. He's just tough. He's just a player. He's a guy you can count on. He'll run block, he'll pass block.
assistant coach couple goal guys people student training until wait
I think his goal is to be a coach and he'll be able to do some things as a student assistant coach that a lot of people can't do. He'll get a couple of years of training that a lot of guys have to wait for until after they graduate.
beautiful certainly great guys job
Our guys did a great job of doing what we had to do to win. It certainly wasn't a very beautiful victory, but to me it is.
guys plays practice seen time
I was a little befuddled, ... I've seen guys making plays all the time in practice, and I'm like, 'What's the problem?' But when you'd look at the tape, it really was just one guy making a mistake.
against bunch camps dominating guy guys hard hold maybe somewhat type
It is somewhat of a consideration, but if we think a guy is a player, we won't hold that against him. Sometimes you have a big lineman maybe who is dominating a bunch of little, bitty guys it's hard to get a feel, but there are also camps and combines and those type of things that let you get a little better look at some of these guys.
bring call defense guys hard
Those guys are hard to tackle. Even if you call the right defense and have guys in the right positions, you still have to bring them down and we didn't.
expected guys kinds max maybe people
It's been one of those years where not many people expected much of us. There weren't many guys getting all kinds of preseason accolades, maybe Max Jean-Gilles a little bit,
adversity beautiful great guys job losing people proud react team wonder
I'm proud of our guys. You always wonder how your team is going to react to some adversity. We were losing at the half, but the guys did a great job of doing what they had to do to win. Some people may not think it's a beautiful victory, but it is to me.
behave class covered excited four guys hard mainly major position special three unite work
I'm real excited about this class, mainly because of the numbers. We really covered every major position other than the kickers. If these guys unite as a team, behave like they should and work hard like they should, we should be something special three or four years down the road.
bottom child dealing guy hate human kids line relaxing summer
It wasn't as relaxing of a summer I would like. I hate it when a guy misbehaves. I hate when my own child misbehaves. The bottom line is we're dealing with kids and we're dealing with human beings, and they are going to make mistakes. That's inevitable.
