I made a conscious effort to put on 10 pounds this offseason and I didn't lose any speed. I still run a sub-4.4 40 and bench press more than 400 pounds. I just wanted to be more durable.

I'm lazy but generally task oriented so having a hoop to jump through means eventually I'll make the effort.

We have been relying on team effort, not so much as one individual. Everyone stepped up at Ball State and they all played pretty even, as indicated by their scores. We need to improve our short game, though. That was what hurt us the most at Ball State, and we lost some shots around the green. Our course management will be the key to our success this weekend.

I'm proud of our kids, and it was a great effort. I just don't think this team is getting any breaks right now. These kids are putting in all the effort, and I couldn't ask for anything more. I couldn't ask for anybody to play any better, they're just not getting any breaks right now.

I think our depth wore them out. But I thought Chantilly came out hard. Our defensive effort was there, but not early on. It took a while for us to remember what we're built on.

Obviously the long run couldn't have been executed without the offensive line, but you can add that to the equation.
