I'm not going to repeat it. It was painful enough (the first time).
I'm not going to feel bad because a few plays here and there, they beat us, ... I'm going to enjoy being 1-0.
I'm not fiddling, ... You give me an all-pro quarterback, and we won't have to fiddle around. I don't like to do this.
I hope we play like winners play, ... Don't beat yourself. Don't do the careless things that cause you to lose. We're going to try our best to accomplish these goals as we go through the season.
I hope we play a lot better than this later this season,
I hope we give them something to cheer about.
I hope we change something. I hope we get them off the field and our third-down defense will be a lot better. I know our defensive coaches were disappointed. We've got to play extremely better defensively.
It was not a performance that makes think us we've got a chance for a big year,
It was a good first day. We'd be pretty stupid to be out here in the rain (today) and let this day go by. I just think it's smart to pick the good days instead of the bad ones.
I walked around for about six hours. I think the best way to go is go somewhere and sit. You can't see much walking around.
I've finally got a new line - God is smiling on the Gamecocks. That was my line after close wins at Florida.
Oh, that's a secret, a little secret, ... Nah, we're breaking the balls in. They're all brand new and slippery as can be. Like a watermelon seed when they bring them out of the box. So you try rubbing them in the dirt, the grass, put a little sweat on them. You try everything to get where you can handle them.
Oh sure, ... As a coach, you always have a little concern about what possibly could go bad and this, that and the other. But at some point, you say, 'Hey, we've done all we can.'
Nothing hardly ever rattles Danny Wuerffel. He has such a sincere faith and belief in God that things are going to work out. He's definitely a good person to have helping to lead that school and those kids, the inner-city kids in New Orleans.
