Kai has been through two years of playing in a lot of games, he's been to all the stadiums, he's played all the teams, he knows what's out there in front of him, he knows what needs to be done. He's a mature player now and he knows what it takes to be a really, really good player.
battles digging early good halftime job last message players proud reminded training won
Our last message at halftime was something that we had said early in training camp. We just reminded the players that battles are not won by digging in. If you dig in, you just become a target. Battles are won by attacking. The players did a very good job of that, and they can be proud of themselves.
allowed darn defense good points statistic
The only statistic we look at on defense is points allowed, and on defense we allowed 12 points. That's a pretty darn good night.
committed good improve left mark miller outside players playing rotation seemed time today week
We had to play Mark Miller outside today which really just left us with a three-man rotation inside. It seemed like Antonio's time is here. He had a good week of practice. We're committed to playing these young players and the only way they are going to improve is to play them in the game.
bit brian center good open quite season
We're working Brian quite a bit at center right now and I'd say there's a good possibility he could open the season there.
active amongst certainly game good players productive unfair
His whole game has progressed. It probably would be unfair to Emmanuel to say that it's one thing or the other, but he's a more confident, more active and certainly more productive player. Amongst the players who are having a very good camp, Emmanuel is very much one of them.

Chris has really had a pretty positive day every day out there. I guess you could say he's had a real good average on a lot more at-bats than before.
academics field goals good holding nice people playing sounds understand whether
He's doing a nice job. It sounds like an over-simplification, but people who know him will understand that he's just being Vic. He's doing well because he's Vic Hall. Whether it's academics or holding on field goals for the first time, or playing on the corner, he's got a real good sense of competition.
gets good opponents solid team week
gets a lot of attention, but what's really important in being a solid team week in and week out is being able to keep your opponents down, and they're really good at that.
bit certain game good learning players respond
This year, it's a little bit different circumstance. We are learning in each game how certain players are going to respond in different competitive situations. So it probably has been good for us in these (first) two games.
games good ready understand win worthwhile
We all understand that this was a good win for us, ... It wasn't a season-ending win. There are more games to come, and to make this really worthwhile we need to be ready to win again.
ability athletic bases game good
I wouldn't say that's what he bases his game on, but he has good athletic ability and good sense of how to use it.

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.
