I like our team speed.

We didn’t play the complete game we needed to play but give Holy Cross credit. They got the lead and played hard. Now we’ve got an opportunity to be 2-0 in the league. That’s the...

We get more inquiries from California kids than anywhere else. California and Texas, I?d say, make up for almost 50 percent of the inquiries.

Junior running back Jordan Spence played in a utility role last year and must become a prominent part of our offense.

Our sideline erupted with that one. It was like the weight of the world went off our shoulders.

I think we?re one of those teams that questions are going to be answered as we go along.

Mike has picked things up very quickly — he is an excellent pass blocker, which allows us to keep him in the game in all our one back formations. He is still a work in...

It will be another great year of Ivy football with a lot of close games. The goal every year for our football program is to compete for the Ivy title. We play in a league...

It’s the degree of the break that will determine if he plays again. It’s the same injury Eric Johnson had two years ago. Jake Borden did the same thing in our championship year [1999]. He...

We will miss Rory Hennessey, Rob Carr and Alvin Cowan, but other players are ready for their turn to play. Our success will depend on many juniors and seniors that are getting their first opportunity...

In terms of front-line players, it’s the worst since I’ve been here. Last year, we probably had 10 more guys injured at this stage of practice.

The coaches have voted unanimously for the 11th game and for postseason play every time it has been brought forward at our meetings. It then has to go to the athletic directors, the policy committee...

We can?t get frustrated. We made a lot of big plays last week. There might not be as many big-play opportunities in this game. They?re going to back up and not let you run by...

I think there?s a lot of viable candidates and a lot of times they look at somebody that?s done more, shown more … It?s a real commitment for a kid, in the short term, to...

He brings a football work ethic that may be one of the most detailed that I have seen. He?s got all these drills that he does for concentration. You always say when your best players...

He looks great. To be that big and run that time is pretty impressive.

[Against Princeton] we ran the ball well and protected the QB well, so [the offensive line] got off to a good start. We had no turnovers the whole day. We are relatively inexperienced and adjustments...

The nature of college football is that players graduate.

It?s a neurological problem being evaluated as we go along under doctors? care.

Obviously, the quarterback being elected the captain of the team shows that our players have confidence in him, they think he’s going to be the right guy and a leader. He has lined up as...

Jeff is the classic drop-back guy. We will have no designed run for Jeff like we did for Alvin [Cowan ’05]. He is an excellent play-action guy and has gotten a great feel for the...

Getting Ryan (Fodor) and Mike (McLeod), two of the most publicized kids in the state last year, the two MVPs, really helps us.

I thought our defense played absolutely phenomenal. We put them in a hole. We had three turnovers in the first half, [but] we were still ahead 6-0.

Our defense stood up each time we turned it over.

The bottom line is, their best player beat us. He made the biggest play of the game, and he beat us.

We handled adversity well last week. Now we find out how we handle success. Some teams don?t handle it too well.

We called timeout and I actually walked out to see if you could kick a field goal there. There was no way. It was an absolute quagmire. That was out of the question.

The running part is easy. The challenge comes with picking up the system, learning formations, reading defenses and knowing blocking assignments. All indications are he has very good natural football instincts. But we have to...

Mike’s one of those guys. He’s going to make you miss. You’re not going to get Mike every time even with that safety coming down.

Sometimes a player stands out when he is under adverse conditions. Chandler knew he couldn’t play, but he took on a role of helping the younger players instead of feeling sorry for himself. He’s gone...

It?s confidence. The confidence level of this team built through the whole game on both sides of the ball and in the kicking game. You could feel it at halftime. We were just such a...

Being up just 6-0 that long was scary. When we scored on that fourth-down play, our sideline erupted. That was a big weight off our shoulders. We finally made that big play. We were a...

They both did some good things. Ryan had the longest drive and ran the ball better than he had. Matt has the quick feet. Ryan is better in the two-minute drill, in the five-step drop,...
