The kind of uses that you're OK driving five or 10 minutes to. The more people that live out in that immediate area, the more retailers that are going to be attracted.
I'm in control of what I'm doing physically and mentally. I feel good. I've always felt confident and comfortable going into seasons, but each year I feel like I'm getting better and better.
I'm not thinking about any of that right now. I'm just going to enjoy this. I'm so proud of our seniors, and to come out and take them out with a game like this is great.
I try to have the motto of living life with no regrets.
The input from younger people is extremely important to us. We have heard some concerns that the city of Ames isn't appropriately catering to the 18- to 25-year-old group.
This is a major step, where we start to lay out the site and provide for the consolidation of lots.
Preseason game plans are always about fundamentals and playing football. You're not trying to out-scheme anybody, you're just trying to beat people and out-execute people. That's what's fun to me.
I feel like, if the guys can look at me in the huddle and see a calm and collected face, that they're going to relax a little bit. The way I look at it, leadership and being that guy is, don't be someone you're not. Don't be a hoorah guy jumping around and clapping your hands if you're not that guy.
When you come in, you kind of see all these guys who are tremendous athletes. In high school you don't see that many good athletes. I think I am going to have to work at it every day at practice and get better each day. I can't make the same mistakes twice that I made the day before.
It's easier said than done, but that's my challenge for this week, to stay calm and not think about the big situation. You can't get all hyped up. At my position, you have to relax and focus on the game plan.
I like to look at their similarities and they both strive to win everyday.
I love preseason games. They are fun to me because you get to go out there with guys that are on the NFL field for the first time and playing against guys who are going to be on the field for the first time.
The product is out there. It's not necessarily right, and it's not necessarily wrong. It's just the idea that was generated.
Growing up, my quarterback coach was my father. I call him every day and talk to him about it all. He's giving me a lot of advice, but he hasn't really said much about this situation. I have to prepare myself to be ready for whatever the coach calls. I'm ready to go. I just do whatever I can at practice everyday to get better.
