son parent trying
You're trying to get a comfort zone with the parents. You want the family to feel comfortable with me in charge of their son.
football adversity successful
I've seen him be successful throwing the football his sophomore year, I've seen that. I've seen him react through adversity, I have seen that. I'd never seen him react to a new system because we didn't have one. I'd say that'd be the most impressive thing.
amount practice practices
The determining factor's going to be amount of practice time, ... If he practices a lot, I would think his shoulder's not going to be really sore. If it's sore, then he won't practice. That's kind of the way it's been.
You've got to look at why we're 2-3. Is it penalties? No. Is it turnovers? No. Are they quitting? No. So then what is it? Well, we've got to make one more play.
anytime excited
I'm probably more excited now than at anytime I've been here.
He's probably the least experienced of all the starters.
