I was watching him call plays, ... I said, 'That's a fun way to call it.' You go back and throw one 60 yards downfield. If you don't hit it, who cares? You're going to run it for the next play and you get to stay on the field. We're not near in that category.
So six guys got letters, two have been renewed. They stayed here, remained quiet, didn't burn any bridges and did what they were supposed to do. As it turned out, we ended up not renewing four.

Certainly Carlos has an excellent chance of being a starting corner for us and really play well once he stays over there.
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.
If you want to read about some full-blown fights, read about the Tennessee players, not our guys.
The way our pass protection is right now, I don't know if Blake could last anyway.
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.
Obviously right now, ... no one's going to be scared of the Gamecocks.
