close exactly feels last pleased
I don't know if he's all the way back, but I know this, he's a lot better now than what he was at the end of last season. I think he feels a lot more comfortable. There are things that he's doing that I think he's getting close to exactly where he was before. I've been pleased with what he's been able to do and the workload that we've been able to give him this spring.
I don't know how he's going to play,
ball playing running side win
He told me when we recruited him he wanted to win the Heisman as a running back. I think he'd tell you he's playing on the right side of the ball now.
best hand knew none opportunity prepared shook stuck team watch
He stuck his hand out and shook my hand and said 'Thank you,' and off he went to go and watch film, ... I think he knew what was going to take place. I don't know how he's going to play, none of us know. But I know he's going to be prepared and give everything he's got to give the team the best opportunity to win.
football liked
He's a hard-nosed football player. We just liked everything about him.
definitely football given saw wish
I just wish if Ed wanted to play football he would have come and saw me. We would have definitely given him an opportunity.
appeared expect kick
He appeared find. I expect him to kick on Friday.
extremely good impression obviously work
But I think the one thing is, they obviously made a good impression on those teams. They know there's nothing etched in granite, in stone, for them to be there. They're just going to work extremely hard.
amount guys prepared respect team tremendous
But I know this: He's going to be prepared and he's going to give everything he's got. I know all the guys on the team have a tremendous amount of respect for him.
ball force gone guy himself learn seen since thrown upset
He's never thrown a ball like that since I've seen him. He's a guy that's not going to force a ball, but that one should have gone into the stands. These are the things he's going to have to learn from. He's as upset with himself as anybody.
four last moments three
I don't now if there's a clear-cut leader. I think three of the four had their moments last year.
games guy rather
I'd much rather play our non-conference games first and then get into the conference. Every game is important, but I'm a guy that would much rather play the non-conference first.
guy handle situation
If I didn't feel like he could handle the situation then he wouldn't be the guy that we would go with,
guy
If he couldn't throw, he wouldn't be the guy going in for us,
