Right now we're rolling guys through (the secondary) and counting on Terrell Thomas to come back at full speed, but the other guys are battling. We have to see who's going to be most productive.
We've got to make sure John David makes it back. I wouldn't count Mark out, he's done too well. Mark's gained more ground on him - he had a great spring. His bid to start has been enhanced by that.
It's a display of respect for last year. We're proud of what we accomplished, and other people respect that. But it's what we do from this point forward that counts in 2005.
Absolutely, heck yeah. We're counting on that competition.
All along, we counted on Vidal being a big factor in the strength of our recruiting class. It's taken a while for everyone to come together on this decision, but we're pleased for him and his family that it is finalized. We expect him to play a big role on our team and to compete for playing time right away.
I think it's important to have people you know and can count on. I know why guys hire their sons. You have a relationship. It could be a problem, but you know that you've got someone with your best interests at heart. He can tell me something that nobody else can tell me. I see it as an asset.
History has shown we're a really good second-half football team and particularly strong in the fourth quarter. We count on that.
He'll be sore, but we'll be counting on him,
We've been talking, and we had a more significant discussion (Wednesday). That is why I am willing to say something in a general sense. There are no details to give. We're in great shape, and things worked out really nice.
We just could not stop him. Vince Young is just an extraordinary football player.
We just missed each other out there. I don't think anyone was mad at each other. I was more upset that our defense gave up all those passing yards in the fourth quarter. I don't think there's a problem.
We feel very fortunate to be in this situation at this time of year. It's a beautiful time to be coaching and playing football. This is the situation we all hope for. We all want to get in the Rose Bowl. The situation this year is a little different.
I've never understood how two-thirds of the thing can vote for you one way and one third can knock you into fourth place. It looks like it should be third, third, third, but that's my simple math.
It would be awesome to go a couple more games and have a chance to be in a position like that. I know their fans and their followers have just got to be loving it.
