We're a couple guys who want to have fun playing football. That's what it amounts to, and we go back to that, go back to the roots of why we're doing this.
We reacted exactly like we should. We had to put a stop to the bad stuff happening before it got too deep and we did that. The defense stopped them for 40 straight minutes and the offense scored seven of the final eight times we had the ball.
We just learning about this. At this point, this is being handled by the university's Student Affairs office, and we'll follow along with whatever action the university takes.
We just don't want to push it right now,
We just missed each other out there. I don't think anyone was mad at each other. I was more upset that our defense gave up all those passing yards in the fourth quarter. I don't think there's a problem.
We just could not stop him. Vince Young is just an extraordinary football player.
We've been talking, and we had a more significant discussion (Wednesday). That is why I am willing to say something in a general sense. There are no details to give. We're in great shape, and things worked out really nice.
This offense needs an aggressive, big running back to build around the rest of what we do. I think that's really the formula for us. I love the downhill, hardball effect we can get from a big running back.
We're much higher on Mark at this early stage than we were on Matt.
We righted it and got it going. We're thrilled that this is what our opportunity is. I know there's a lot of talk about pressure, but that's not what this feels like. It feels like an opportunity. It's been fun.
We're treating this very seriously. He's in essence been knocked down until we find out further what the situation is.
We're trying to find six or seven No. 1 draft picks every class. We'd like to have that many every year. Every recruit out of state, we're trying to find a No. 1 pick. That's the criteria. We primarily recruit in California.
Vince Young's stock couldn't go higher. He has to rethink his decision.
Vince Young was an extraordinary talent out there tonight. He's really off the charts. That's a heck of a football player.
