bother conference improve mountain offense ready struggled team today west wind
We struggled in the wind, no question. I told the team that in the Mountain West Conference you have to be ready to play in all the elements: heat, cold, wind, dust, fog. But the offense really let the wind bother us today and we have to improve on that.
excellent expect game good high huge player recruiting runner saw understanding
He is an excellent player. I saw him play in high school. He was in my recruiting area. I have a good understanding of what kind of player he is, and he's excellent. An excellent athlete, an excellent runner and a better passer than he showed at Utah. We expect a huge game out of him.
hurts shoulder surgery tough
He's a tough guy. He had shoulder surgery and has come back. His shoulder hurts him, but he still practices.
academic arts associate earn expecting point previous situation
There's been an academic situation from a previous institution where he is, at this point of time, ineligible. He still has to earn his Associate of Arts (A.A.) degree. We are expecting him to come back to UNLV when he does.
looks possibly run wholesale
I don't know what that looks like, but there is a chance. But I don't think we would make a wholesale change. I think no matter, (James is) always going to be a corner, but he could possibly play another position. But I just think you run out of corners, and I don't think you (want that).
environment great hostile
I know it is a great environment and a very hostile environment.
difficult helped learn strengths
I think it helped us to learn more about him and what his strengths are. It was very difficult (with the injury).
continuing process standards
We're in the process of continuing to set our standards high.

We're not going to make it enjoyable to lose around here. It's going to be a miserable existence.
