He's still gimpy. But he's not much of a runner, anyway. So hopefully he won't have to move around too much. Get rid of it quickly.
He's maybe the biggest guy we have signed. He can move and, as you can see, was rated very high.
I had 12 wonderful years there, and I thought it was time to move on, so I moved on, ... Hopefully, our fans are happy I'm here, and I think Florida fans are happy with their coach. Everybody's happy.
They've got pass rushers all over the place. They've got cover guys, just a very talented group of guys, ... But no different than Georgia and some of the other top teams we're going to play. ... We've got execute, move the ball and try to score some points.
If the play goes bad, it was a bad call - even though it might have been a pretty good call. That's just the way it is, and we accept it and move on.
They've behaved well and the focus has been pretty good.

Shows you how alert we were as a team. It was sad.
I thought Blake played very well for his first performance, and, really, for any performance,
He's a big target and catches everything. As a quarterback, those are the guys you like. He's got a chance to help us win big around here and has a chance to break some records because we're going to be firing.
He contributes a lot, ... He's been a wonderful guy, does everything, weightlifting, been a good teammate for all the guys.
He was given the day off. But he should be here tomorrow.
