Like I told the players, it doesn't mean anything if we get whipped this week. We have a pretty levelheaded group of seniors who know the jury is still out on us. We know we're good. We know we have a chance to do some special things. But how good can we be? No one knows for sure. We've still got a long way to go.
Like I told the players, it doesn't mean anything if we get whipped this week, ... We have a pretty levelheaded group of seniors who know the jury is still out on us. We know we're good. We know we have a chance to do some special things. But how good can we be? No one knows for sure. We've still got a long way to go.
Everyone knows his name now, but no one knows the blockers,
I wanted to make sure he knew I believe in him. I hope he knows that, but sometimes, in that moment, you need a little encouragement.
If that hamstring didn't set him back, who knows where he would be,
Mario's going to play and probably play a lot if everything keeps going like it's been. He knows what he's doing. He's catching the ball pretty well.
If he'd had a few more balls caught throughout the year, who knows what kind of year he could have had.
I didn't know I got criticism.
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.
We might have the only kickoff team in the country that doesn't have any linebackers running down there,
We certainly found some kinks in our armor tonight. It was a typical Southeastern Conference game and a typical Georgia-South Carolina game.
We control our destiny still. That's where you want to be.
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.
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.
