Jamie Delaunois Quotations

One of the things we have stressed all week is getting more time for Dallas to operate. Of course, he has to set up quicker, read quicker and get rid of the ball, too.

We just have to find it in ourselves to find our focus on the football field. The young players are no longer young. They are varsity football players who can't wait until bad things happen on the field to take things personally.

I actually tried to compare it to any other situation where leadership is lost. At the beginning, there's a sense of shock, and a lack of purpose. We haven't talked about the outside things, all we've talked about is Christopher all week. Yesterday and (Thursday) we've had good practices, and I think we're really focused, considering everything.

(Josh) Shirley is still a game-time decision, but getting Jacob back is quite a lift. That will help us out on both sides of the ball.

We've tried hard to get the best players out on the field on special teams. And we have talked about the blocking and other things we have to do.
