Post-Practice Quotes
"Today's practice was a good go. It was tough because of the quick turn around from last night. We went on the field late last night then came back early this morning. Today was the first day we introduced some scout team and show team, so it was a little different tempo and pace. Some guys were doing some things that they haven't been used to doing so it was definitely a learning curve today. It sets us up with getting into game week prep next week and it was a very valuable day for us."
-- Offensive line coach Blaine McCorkle comments on today's practice
