The way our pass protection is right now, I don't know if Blake could last anyway.
I thought Blake played very well for his first performance, and, really, for any performance,
Blake felt a little pressure and held it too long. He's learning. He's hanging in there.
Blake has come a long way, and I think he can go farther.
It's not going to be that easy the rest of the season, ... Blake has to play extremely well for us to have a chance (against Georgia).
He's a three-year starter going into his fourth year. That's amazing nowadays, a four-year starter. It just doesn't happen every day. Blake has no starts. None of our quarterbacks have played much at all, so it will be interesting. Hopefully, they'll play like they're capable.
Blake is scheduled to go about as long as he can, and we'll go from there.
Certainly, Blake has improved. He has certainly learned what's going on, and he should play much, much better this year. I hope we have some coaches around here so our guys improve from one year to the next.
Sidney Rice and Blake and all those guys had some super performances, ... Sidney, you know they're trying to stop him. He's close to unstoppable. Everybody's stoppable but he's some player. Little Kenny McKinley made a bunch of key catches all over the place. It was a fun game. This was big for our football program and the University of South Carolina. Hopefully we can gain some confidence and build on it, and not let it get to us.
Maybe I'm asking Blake to do things that are a little too difficult right now,
Blake twisted his ankle. I don't know bad it is. He's on crutches. They say there's no fracture and that it's an ankle sprain.
Brett has done a little bit better. I would say if you had to rank them, that's the way it would be - Blake and Cade and Brett and Tommy.
They've behaved well and the focus has been pretty good.
Oh, that's a secret, a little secret, ... Nah, we're breaking the balls in. They're all brand new and slippery as can be. Like a watermelon seed when they bring them out of the box. So you try rubbing them in the dirt, the grass, put a little sweat on them. You try everything to get where you can handle them.
