alex job past plans recognize spring statement winter
Alex has made a real statement this spring and this past winter that that's the job he would like to have, that's the job he plans to have. Alex does recognize there is going to be a lot of competition, but that's the way it is for any top-notch program.
defensive last learn lights midway recent schemes spring understood
I think it will be a lot different than recent years. Last season, about at the midway point, I could see the lights go on in a lot of players. They understood the defensive schemes we wanted to use. Now, with this spring practice, they aren't going to have to learn anything new.
hope questions spring time
I would hope that by the time the spring is over, we'll have a lot of questions answered.
ecstatic surreal
This is unbelievable. I'm ecstatic about this and it's still soaking in right now. It's a very surreal moment.
foul ran second took trouble
They (Waxahachie) just outplayed us in the second half. We ran into foul trouble and turnovers and they took advantage.
alex football goes solid
Alex just goes about his business. He's just a very solid football player.
poised
I think Marco is poised to have a big season.
crowd egg front good lay practice saturday
Some of them play well on the practice field, but in front of a crowd ... it can be a different story. If you lay an egg on Saturday ... it's not a good thing.
crown cut district feels felt girls good hard net played ready rewards season senior share winning
It feels really good to be able to cut down the net on Senior Night. We were ready to play and the girls felt like they had something to prove. We played hard all season and winning a share of the district crown is one of the rewards for that.
defensive smooth transition
There's no way we could have had as smooth of a transition at defensive line.
alex herb load
You can see that Alex is a very shifty runner. And Herb is just a load out there.
change good last routine scenery weeks
I think a change of scenery will be good for us. We've had disappointment the last two weeks at home. It'll be something different (from) the routine we've had lately.
daily doubt good learning pace players playing
There's no doubt that we're going to get it done. We're getting better on a daily basis. We're playing a lot of young players and they are learning on a good pace now.
based fair hoping scoring system
I was hoping this scoring system would make for a competitive day. Based on (Saturday's) score, I'd say it's a pretty fair system.
