Less message board fodder here than normal, but nothing interesting, either.
The mental state of the team....
"I think we are okay. Two disappointing home losses are going to take its toll, but the best thing we having going on is that we are still in the hunt. We need to go to Kent and get a "W". We need to prepare to win the game. We can't just think we are going to go to Kent, show up and beat them.(Note: if our guys think they're going to show up and beat anyone, they're worse off than we feared.)
Painful detail on the interception...
"I think it just made him really mad. It wasn't completely his fault. On the play it was a sprint out to the right, but the snap was well behind him, so he had to take his eyes off the read. Once he got the snap the timing was out of whack. He looked out to throw the ball to the flat to Steve Sanders, who was wide open, and that is where the ball should have gone, but he couldn't see him. So he kept running and made an ill advised throw."
On our youth:
"We do have some great young guys that will be great for us next year. The tendency is to play those guys, but I don't want to. I want to red-shirt them. We are still good enough on both sides of the ball, including the injuries, to win games.That's a big switch from saying coaching changes had trashed 3-5 years of recruiting.
On redshirts
I'm not willing to cash in the chips and burn guy's years. I am not going to sacrifice the farm. I am in it for the long haul.
That's a relief. At least he's not saying he's not redshirting guys so they can play for someone else.
