finally offense opportunity throw wide
It's just finally getting the opportunity to do what I like to do. This offense being so wide open, I can throw it to any receiver.
penn state throw
That's what I used to see Penn State do, back when they were winning. They never let up. If we made a big play, we'd throw another big play.
beat drop four guys key three throw
You can't really just key in on one receiver, because now we have three or four guys that can beat you deep. Sometimes I drop back and I don't know who to throw it to, because they can all get open.
attitude ball brought football gloves run throwing
It wasn't always throwing to them. I'd put the ball down, put the receivers gloves on and go out there and run with them. And they responded to that. They soaked it all in. These kids, they all know how to win. And they brought that attitude to our football team.
throw
They're in my ear, 'Tell 'em to throw it deep, Mike, throw it deep. They want the ball, and they're going to make some plays.
completing gonna line offensive passes start
You start completing passes and the offensive line is like 'OK, if I keep blocking, we're gonna make big plays,'
spend
It is expensive, but as long as it's efficient, we'll spend the money.
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.
criticize helped jay people talking
Jay has helped me a lot. Those people that criticize him really don't know what they're talking about.
line player running unique
Derrick's a very unique player. He has exceptional speed. We were able to line him up at running back sometimes. I don't know if we have another player on our roster like that.
coverage guys recognize
They didn't go to a traditional coverage after they blitzed, ... and our guys were really able to recognize that and get open.
environment expecting people retail typical
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.
forgot joe oh
Oh man, don't say that. I forgot I had it in. It's one of those things where we're not around Joe right now.
senior
I never would have thought my Senior Day was going to come,
