We haven't seen anybody like White. He's special.
If a quarterback places the ball properly, I don't think there's anybody who can cover him. He's just such a big guy. You can't slow him up. You better get to him if you want to cover him.
On any given day a guy can look great or poor. We'll keep rolling them in and out the entire spring. That's something we won't change no matter how good or bad anybody looks.
He's got as strong of an arm as anybody I've coached,
It's just different from anybody we've seen. Thankfully, we've had time to practice and prepare for it.
The main thing I want to emphasize the most about Arkansas is their speed. They are fast. They've got to be the fastest team from top to bottom that we'll face. I don't think they have anybody who can't run. It's a little intimidating to watch them on film and see them run the way they do.
I was a little befuddled, ... I've seen guys making plays all the time in practice, and I'm like, 'What's the problem?' But when you'd look at the tape, it really was just one guy making a mistake.
I think we'll keep our poise. I think we'll fight hard. I think that'll happen. Are we good enough to beat Tennessee? That I don't know. We'll have to improve in all areas, but when it comes to fighting a full 60 minutes, I think we've proven over the last four or five years we'll do that.
I think we've been taking Bennett for granted around here a long time. He's made those kicks in the games we've been winning. Gosh, you take nine points right there we've got a chance to win the game.
I think West Virginia was extremely excited. They brought a little more emotion in the beginning.
Jason is a talented kid and a tough son of a gun. He's going to play. We've always been pleased with him and he's stepped it up.
I think Florida's intentions were to use a lot of the things (West Virginia coach Rich) Rodriguez is doing, but Chris Leak's talents didn't really jibe with that.
Our guys did a great job of doing what we had to do to win. It certainly wasn't a very beautiful victory, but to me it is.
Without a doubt, he was our player of the game.
