Tristan came back yesterday and looked sharp. He understands and still remembers some for the defense. We'll keep working with him and go from there.

It would be different if I was stepping into a place where they'd been terrible on defense and had a whole bunch of turnover within the staff. But the three coaches back are good football coaches and nucleus of our defense is back. I'm just going to go out there and try not to mess it up too bad.

I thought our whole defense was average at best at every position. There were some guys I thought played really well, but I'm not going to name any names.

I had a meeting with him on Saturday and we spoke again yesterday, ... For me, that's enough. If he understands me now it will be easier for him.

We wanted to stop them first and our offense would come easier. I think our defense really started it.

I didn't see the replay until yesterday, but it looked like he traveled and went backcourt.
