He has really grown as a leader. He is a very smart quarterback and he conducts the huddle very well.

It's nice to see we're having some improvement, but still losing is not easy. It's hard to deal with, but if you get something you can take away from the game, have success at some level, it's easier to deal with.

We're having more success on offense, but we need to tackle better.

He is a great athlete No. 1, that is the biggest characteristic he has.

We had a very good freshmen/sophomore game. They looked pretty promising and I expect that to continue throughout the season.

Every week is a new week. It's a new hope for us. It hurts a little to start a season off like that, but they say only the strong survive. The kids that are continuing to practice are not giving up.
