focused front guys happy hard proved watched work
All of our guys are happy that we've got that guy. They've watched how hard he's focused this spring, they've watched the work that he's done. He proved that in front of 63,000 going down (the field) on that first drive.
far films guys last opposed positions watching
I think we got a lot accomplished. I think we know more about what the capabilities are of the guys we have and we know even more vividly how far we have to go at some positions as opposed to watching the films of last fall.
discuss guys might nfl rule standing
My standing rule has always been, let's discuss guys going out if they might be a first-rounder. And I don't know why he wouldn't be a first-rounder, but I'm not an NFL guy.
football game guys maybe williams
He can play the game of football. There are some guys who are just fast, but are maybe not football players. Derrick Williams is a football player. He's out there having fun.
aura certain confidence enjoy followed grown guys himself people
He's got something about him that people enjoy following. I don't think you can be followed if you don't produce, and he produces. He's got a certain confidence and aura about himself that, hey, if you guys will follow me, we have a chance, and I think he's grown a lot.
allowed five guys six trying walk
He's trying out, kind of like five or six other guys that we've allowed to walk on and try out in the spring.
guys indiana last rude team
Our guys are going to tell you that this is a better Indiana team than the one they last met. And if they don't see that, then, you know, they may be in for a rude awakening.
ball catching great guys huge job nine plus return somebody starting teddy tone
Our punt return game, those guys have done a great job up front, plus Tone (Holmes) and Teddy (Ginn Jr.) back in the back. Somebody told me (the Aztecs) had nine three-and-outs. When they're starting with the ball on their 11 and they're having a three-and-out, and our punt-returners are catching the ball around midfield, that's huge for the offense.
against believing chance defense fighting game great guys life people plans
Our defense is special. People come in with great plans against them and it's the game of their life to have a chance to play against out defense and our guys just keep fighting and keep fighting and believing in each other.
beat conference focus game guys hard looking might next spend thinking time
Occasionally, all of us, I'm sure, think back to, gosh, if I would have called a different game ... we might have beat Texas. But you better not spend too much time thinking about those things. Once you get into conference play, the guys are looking hard to see who beat who and who do we have next and what have we got to do. I think their focus is very good.
guys tough
This is too tough a ballgame. Guys only want to go out there if they can contribute.
care edge fast guys hold knew praying snap sure wing
They didn't have a wing. I'm sure guys started salivating on edge because I don't care how fast the snap and the hold is, if there's not a wing there I was just praying they could get the snap off in time. I knew we were going to have a chance.
based both contribute course guys time
I just thought, based upon who had had preparation over the course of time and where we were and what we were doing, that both guys could contribute to a win.
guys love maybe single top tribute
I love his intensity. I love his detail. He?s on top of every single thing. But maybe most important, I love the way his guys play, and that?s a tribute to his staff.
