We took a shot at a couple guys, the best guy in the state of Alabama, the best guy in the state of Florida, and we didn't hit it. One of those guys would have been great.
We're not worried. We're not going to get worn out. These games just keep you on the edge of your seat a little more.
When he was at Louisville, I ran into him at the airport one time when we were going opposite directions and we kind of reunited and hooked back up.
When he returns he'll have had the most practice time with us (of any healthy running back). We do have a good feeling for what we can do; we're really excited about his ability to help this football team. He's doing really well, and there's a chance he could (play) now.
Surgery may be down the road. It's not at all the time to do that. If after about two weeks he hasn't responded, then (team doctors) have to think more seriously about what the next step is.
Texas would have a 1,000-yard back if they didn't share the ball so much.
Looking at him, last year to this year, you can see the maturity in the throwing game and his decision-making and all of that.
Matt Leinart's decision to return for his senior year really sent a message about him as a person and about how much fun it is to play college football.
Matt just is rolling, ... He's in such command right now.
(Matthews) has had a very good spring. He's played almost every snap in the springtime so he's had a great opportunity to show us stuff and he's done very well.
Matt has no intention of doing that. He knows the possibility. I talked to him about it a week or so ago because I'd heard this stuff floating around, and he said, 'No, I'm not doing that.'
Matt had a spike or sneak option on the final touchdown play. We were over on the sideline feinting the spike call, knowing that Matt was going to try the sneak. For a second, he looked at us and then had a little look of doubt on his face and then looked back at Reggie. Reggie said to him, 'Dude, you've got to go for it, man.' And he did.
Matt did everything he was supposed to do.
Matt can hang in those (Hollywood) settings, but he doesn't thrive or dwell on that. It's just because he's in L.A. He's a local kid that's done great. He decided to stay in school and became famous because of that, as well as the other stuff.
