It's a smaller kind of setting, but he's got great instincts for the job. Nick has taken that program over. He's a very hard-nosed, demanding coach who's going to get it done.
It really felt this way when we talked as a team last night that this could happen in a big way. It was like we could have kept playing all night and had all that fun.
I totally trust our team. Our preparation has been perfect to this point. That's my job. That's what I have been doing, orchestrating every part of this to a point that mentally lets these guys fly on game day.
It's all up to the individual. I think they've earned that right. They earned that by hard work.
It's nothing like it was before, it wasn't that kind of injury, but they just don't know. We're going to be extra cautious.
It still feels very early in the program. I don't think we've done anything truly remarkable yet, but I see the potential for a run. There's a chance for us to be a very good, long-term program where one game or season shouldn't affect that.
This is a fantastic and improved football team; the impact of the head coach is obvious,
They've been through a lot. They've created a tremendous momentum for us in the program over the years they've been here with all of the winning, and Matt has been the leader of all of that. ... But it's hard to describe and hard to define the impact that these guys have had on the program. They've been through the whole thing.
They talk like they ain't been here before.
A lot of players will be battling for playing time in the secondary and the competition will continue into the fall.
It's been a big deal in this program about how we finish. Now it's the fourth quarter of the season. We've got three huge games coming up. We're just really fired up about it.
It's great for us and our continuity because he was raised up in our philosophy. We get a real solid addition to the way we like to do things.
It's great to get this close to the game.
It's probably hard for you to imagine, but we took this thing in stride, step by step as we went through. We didn't talk about national championship very much, the players probably did some.
