It's great to start 1-0 in Conference USA. Now we need a big road win.
It's a challenge to get people to play us here, so we'll pack our bags and go.
It's about identity, really. Do we want everybody to dress the same and look the same and listen to the same music? That's a disaster. Every place has it's 'best' product -- an artichoke or whatever. Why have uniformity instead of preserving local things?
We have had a couple of kids banged up, we have some bumps and bruises. When you are not in pads you are not going to have the bumps and bruises you have when you put the pads on.
We're still getting comfortable with each other as a team. I'm happy with the way we're playing. We still have room to grow though.
We want to prepare our team mentally and physically against the best teams in Ohio. This is an important week. The Stellar gives us the opportunity to play some top teams.
We knew (who) he was. We knew he was a shooter. Coach mentioned that, and once he fired them up, they were gone.
We had a problem in stopping them. They only punted one time. It was tough on us. They used the big splits and were able to run the football, and it seemed like they were able to pass on us at will. They have a good football team with a nice offensive line. They have an outstanding quarterback and have some good receivers. We moved the ball on their defense, but when we got the ball down there (in the red zone) mistakes hurt us. We had interceptions and penalties. Those are the things that happen in the first game. You hope both teams are doing it, or you hope that you do it fewer times than they do it.
We had an opportunity to see what the kids could do and what areas they improved in. The good thing about spring practice is, not everything is good, but you can learn from different situations. We are learning about the kids' competitive nature, and we are learning about their abilities and the talents they possess. Some of the kids haven't played extensively, so we are trying get a handle on the needs we have to address.
We want to be the first 20-loss team in the (NCAA) tournament.
Although we have a lot of newcomers, they were able to gain some experience with some playing time last season. We're looking for them to step up for us this season.
A lot of these students come from low income families and they don't feel as if they have the capabilities of doing anything else. We open up a world and say yes you can.
They have done a good job. (Coleman) and I have talked about tweaking the defense here and there, and the guys we have hired have been involved. They have done a remarkable job with the little time they have had together.
They're a good football team, and they will be a force in the conference this year.
