everybody last played quite situation week
I thought last week (at Houston) we should have played everybody that was there, but the situation wasn't quite right or they weren't quite ready.
cameron football guy last replace team toughest
One of the things we'll do with Cameron is look at him at that X position. I think the toughest guy to replace from last year's football team may actually be Demetrius Williams.
believe chance couple football game gave inches last ourselves won
We rallied, responded and gave ourselves a chance to win. I believe we would have won that football game if not for a couple inches on that last pass.
believe brady bringing chance couple football game gave great inches job last ourselves providing won
We rallied and responded and gave ourselves a chance to win. I believe we would've won that football game but for a couple of inches on that last pass. Brady did a great job of bringing us back and providing a spark.
half heels last played
We've played on our heels for the last two and a half weeks.
changed fit guys knew last mobility recruit scheme taken vision year
Last year I changed our vision of what we were going to recruit in preparation of what I knew we were going to do. That's why we didn't take a quarterback last year. The guys that we could have taken would have have fit into this mobility scheme that we have. And these guys, they fit that.

That's a practice order. We begin spring and fall practice based on last year. Every day and every week they will be evaluated, and that practice order might change.

Terrence Whitehead is a bona fide, Pac-10, 1,000-yard ground gainer.
athletes best fastest great played reminds safety
(Costa) reminds me a lot of Kellen Clemens in that he played safety and quarterback, was one of the toughest, one of the fastest and one of the best athletes on the field. And he is a great leader.
bit coach commitment exercises gauge gets leadership physical toughness
We do physical exercises where he can gauge a little bit their physical toughness and their leadership and their commitment to it, but (now) he gets to coach real football. That's what's exciting.
complete high loved saw
We really loved him out of high school. He was the most complete back we saw that year.
happened scheme worked
That wasn't by accident. That happened because that scheme worked for us.
direction moving offense option per scoring spread wish yards
I wish we were scoring more points, but we are averaging more yards per game. We are moving in a direction away from our traditional offense into more of a spread option look.
defense win
I think in all honesty, defense is going to win this game. It's not going to be offense.
