against business coming heck next people proud ready stink talk week
We're getting ready to play Ohio. I don't think you talk about those. The players, that shouldn't even be an issue. I'm proud. I'm proud as heck of what people think of us and what's coming around, but I know this: In this business it's one week to the next, and if we go out there and stink it up against Ohio, (the media) will be writing about something else next week.
exactly full
We're not always doing things exactly right, but we're doing them full speed. When you're doing them full speed, you feel like you can get the other part of it right.
happened talk took
We'll see what took place and I'll talk with everyone about what happened before I make any more statements.
voting
We usually have four. The voting was so close, we went with all six.

We treat them like men and give them some time. You have to let them come here and enjoy Jacksonville and all the things here. But they have to be smart about it.

He may. I think he does some things that tells you he can be in that running.
louisville
I would like to see if we couldn't use him a little bit. We'll see if Louisville has a roster.
confident reading seems
Just reading his comments, he seems like a very confident guy.
intended talked
I never intended for it to come out like that. We hadn't even talked to the quarterbacks ... I was going to talk with our quarterbacks, and where they were, before they read it in the paper.
credit defense hard line side stop
I think it's a credit to our defense to be able to stop them after turnovers on our side of the 50-yard line. Turnovers on the 1-yard line are also hard to overcome. That's not us.
michael
If he could throw, he'd be Michael Vick.
feet great mind thrown tying
He's going to be a great player, but right now I think there's a lot being thrown at him and his mind is tying up his feet a little bit,
