answer best fit shocked whatever
I said, 'Man, I just don't see where I fit in here. His answer actually shocked me. He said, 'Well, Mike, whatever you do, I'll still be your boy. Do what you have to do and do what's best for you.' That reaction, that response, made me look at things in a different light.
becoming best coaches coaching country familiar far game great hard job offensive side skill year
He's had another year of becoming more familiar with the personnel, more familiar with what he has on the offensive side of the ball, but I think Galen is one of the best coaches in the country as far as coaching on game day. He does a great job making adjustments on the fly, and that's a hard skill to do.
adjusting best coach five game great halftime hall job passing plays running sees six win
Coach Hall does a great job of adjusting on game day. He's one of the best I've ever seen. He will come in at halftime and say, 'Look, here are five running plays and six passing plays and we'll do it and win the game.' He sees things very well.

At times he's the fastest guy on the field and one of the best tacklers. AZ is a real cornerback. He can run with anybody they put against him.

Our coaches have done a great job using what we have, and we have some speed on the outside, ... Coach Paterno said we were going to put the best players on the field. I've become a lot more comfortable under center, and the more games we play, the more comfortable I feel.

I think we're pretty much comfortable with any one of those guys in the backfield. They've all stepped up and made big plays this preseason. We feel comfortable with any of those guys going.

Jay has helped me a lot. Those people that criticize him really don't know what they're talking about.

Reruns is not located in a typical retail environment. People are expecting to see a lawyer's office, not a kids' shop, in that part of town.
changed days eyes fortunate left playing prize since
Playing for Paterno is all good. Nothing has changed since the days we were losing. We never left our eyes off the prize and I'm just fortunate enough to be here as part of this team.

I tell them all the time, you have to make plays first before we'll get any respect from a secondary.

It is expensive, but as long as it's efficient, we'll spend the money.

Joe has complete control of this team, honestly.
case court decision disagree forward respect taking
While we respect the court, we disagree with the court's decision and we look forward to taking our case to the Court of Appeals.
drive felt halftime upset
That drive was all about heart. Derrick was kind of upset at halftime because he felt like he could do some things on the outside, but we weren't getting him the ball. I told him to be patient.
