corners direct playing result
All the corners are playing better. I think it's as a direct result of the competition.
competition head keeps man mature ray talk
Ray is a mature young man. You can talk to him like a man and he listens. And there's competition. Competition always keeps everyone's head on straight.
coaches cool demeanor everybody great inside life players sure
He really has a great demeanor about him. I can't tell you what's going on inside but to all the players and coaches he sure is a cool customer. Sometimes in life if that's how you appear, even if you're not, it makes everybody else comfortable.
peace
I am very much at peace with where we started, where we are now and where we are going.
snaps
We feel we have to get our quarterbacks as many snaps as we can in all the different things we're going to do.
building close coming consistent forward four improvement leadership moving senior strong team
We've been here for four years, and I think we have made consistent improvement in every area. I think we are getting very close and are moving forward with building our program. We have a very experienced team with strong senior leadership coming back this year.
recruiting
We just have to keep recruiting to the finish. That's it.
define game last questions team week
We may still have as many questions after the game as we had before the game. But not much has changed. Last week we were 0-1, this week we're 1-1. This team still has to define itself.
ball chance football four good played screwing turn
When you turn the ball over four times, you don't have a chance to win. We played pretty good football when we weren't screwing it up.
against best defense efficient game good guys maintain mean passing possession push ready running
We're going to do our best to maintain possession of the football. It doesn't mean just running the ball, but being efficient in our passing game and play a little keep away. That is part of our plan. But when push comes to shove, we need to play defense against a very good offense, and our guys are ready to do that.
area critical island jersey south state success york
When we got here, we declared an area we wanted to recruit. That was the state of Rutgers - the tri-state area and South Florida. We really didn't have much success in New York and Long Island at first. The whole Metropolitan area is critical to our success. We're doing everything we can to make New York and New Jersey one.
dad kids home
Dads are the leaders in their homes, and our kids need leaders.
ability bowl brian deal great path played shelf time tremendous until
Ultimately, I didn't know which path he would take. I thought Brian did it in a great way. He played a tremendous bowl game, and he had the ability to kind of put it on the shelf until it was time to deal with it.
goal plays running sure
We need to make sure they get all the right reps, not just reps. Our goal is to make sure we're running the right plays for our quarterbacks to get better and see what they need to see.
