certainly coming game guess kinda last reflected virginia
It was certainly not an atypical Virginia game coming down to the end like that. It kinda reflected the last game that we played. I guess that is fitting.
credit good job organized people pleasing prince proud roles ron understand
It was very pleasing to see, ... That's what a team's got to do. People understand their roles and their expectations . . . That's a credit to their resilience, and Ron Prince did a good job of getting them organized at halftime, as to what was going to go on, what we were going to call, so they were well-prepped. They can feel proud of what they did tonight.
almost coast grown offense patterns referring soft teams term west
The West Coast offense term has grown to where it's almost like you're referring to a soft drink. There's so many varieties that you can get. Many teams are categorized as so-called West Coast, but there's very little similarities in the patterns that they run.
certain chance game wide
Probably one of these wide receivers will have a chance to play in the game in a certain role.
games might particular
There might be some games where that's too much but it comes down to how we have to play each particular game.
certainly fact grind indicative mean name players talented
This is kind of a 'Joe' team. There really are not many name players on the team. It doesn't mean that there aren't some talented players on the team, but there are certainly no big-name players on the team. It's indicative of the fact that we're all the same. They just come in every day and grind it out.
ball deep defend defense good lined ready rest three
At safety, we tell them three things, ... Get the rest of your defense lined up and ready to play, defend the deep ball and be a good open-field tackler.

Al Golden is a very engaging, energetic coach. He has contributed a great deal to our program which hopefully gives him a good model on how to do things right. His coming to Temple is a real plus for the Owl program.

That's more positive than it was last week.
run
I was run into. I appreciated his effort.
agent anybody december free given help less might months oriented picking plans provide until
I've given it less thought than anybody else because months ago I made plans to go on without him, ... When he comes back, it's going to be like picking up a free agent at midseason. We'll try to get him oriented to the system. Obviously, he'll help provide something we didn't have the day before. Other than that, we might be going until December without him. I don't think about it.
close minutes overtime seven
I did not think about overtime at that point. There was still close to seven minutes remaining.
actions apologize assured block brad crossed detail incident inflict intent issue line occurred opponent player regret result talked
Brad crossed the line and for that he must take accountability, ... We have talked in detail and he has assured me that his actions on the play at issue were a result of over-aggressiveness and over-exuberance to block a challenging opponent and without malice. His intent was to take the player to the ground, not to inflict injury. In any case, we regret that the incident occurred and apologize to Mathias.
basketball fairly foolish four guy hit hitting kept mark occurred situation starting straight suddenly team year
If it was a basketball team and Wali was the starting four, and we told the other guy he was going to go in at the seven-minute mark and he suddenly hit four straight three-pointers and kept hitting them all year long, you'd have to be fairly foolish to say we're going to the way things were, ... That's the only situation that occurred there.
