associated award bulldog candidate college daily demeanor duties embodies football goes great high leader locker player productive qualities respectful ronnie
Dwayne embodies what Bulldog football is all about. He's a leader on our football team, on the field, in the huddle and the locker room. He goes about his daily duties with a professional demeanor and is respectful of his peers. He has also been a productive player for us at a high level. He is a great candidate for this award and the kind of player who should be associated with the qualities that Ronnie Lott exhibited in college and professional football.

Except for one play, I thought he played a great football game.

college couple death difficult fifth finished football forward history last looking national opportunity pass premiere program programs respect title tradition trip won
We couldn't pass up an opportunity to play a program like LSU. They have so much history and tradition and respect in the SEC, and as a program won a national title a couple years ago and finished fifth last season. They have been one of the premiere programs in all of college football of this decade. We are looking forward to the trip to Death Valley, where it is difficult to win. We are looking forward to that challenge.

finish football games good high lack level played season until
Until Nov. 19, it went very well. At the end, it didn't go very well. We had a very, very good season going and we didn't finish the way we wanted to. But I'm not going to take anything away from this football team. We played at a very high level in many games this year, and it was never from lack of effort.
asset believe bulldog coach coaching epitome felt field football four good great individual leader locker obviously player proud staff start tim type
Tim Skipper is the epitome of a Bulldog football player and is the type of individual we are proud to have produced. He was obviously a very good football player to start for four seasons. As a student, he was excellent. He was a leader on the field and in the locker room. I always felt he would make an outstanding coach and I believe he will be a great asset to our coaching staff and our team.
football ourselves practice preparing spent team work
We work more on preparing ourselves to get better as football players. Because if we just spent our whole practice working on each team we played, I think we would go down as a football team.

They're a good football program, but for the first time, I thought we were able to bring our 'A' game against them,
change football goals
That's what offseasons are for. We've got a football game. Friends or family, your goals don't change just because you know someone on the other sideline. Everyone in football understands that.
