Following Quotes
N.D. is still a work in progress. He probably needs more plays because he has been out for a while. But I am happy with N.D. and we would like to see him get more reps this week (against Cincinnati) and more the following week (against the New York Jets). It's just playing the speed and stuff like that. I think that is all he really needs, is the playing speed in a full game.

Allow Quotes
Go back into the days when Maryland lost the ACC championship to N.C. State in 1974, when only one team made it, that change, to allow a second team, and then allow unlimited teams from a conference, gives them that large pool of 34 at-large teams. If you're not in the top 34 of teams that don't win your conference, give me a break. You've had the chance to win games. You have no reason to complain.

Force Quotes
Jevon and N.D. played a lot of plays. They were tired. We need to get Trent Cole in more. Here's a rookie and he made a rookie mistake when he let Michael Vick outside, so we were concerned, but we've got to force ourselves to get him more time. We got to get more rest for ND and Jevon.
-
Bit Quotes
It doesn't bother me. I know it bothers him, but he'll come around. He was a little bit banged up last Sunday, but he played hard, made some plays in the run game and put pressure on the quarterback a couple of times. That will come. I don't worry about individual stats. I just want to make sure we get the effort -- and he is giving us great effort.
-
Coach Quotes
I think like any rookie he is still learning. I think (defensive line coach Tom Brasher) is doing a good job with him. It's going to take a little while. He's probably a better run player than a pass rusher right now. But he does give great penetration and great effort. It will come, but it's not there right now.

Bad Quotes
We came in here thinking from the start we could win. We were a little disappointed at halftime that we were down. I said, 'We played pretty poorly and they played pretty good ? and we were only down by three.' We really weren't in that bad of shape after what I thought was not a good first-half effort.
-
Affordable Quotes
We're hoping to let people know that we're more affordable than they thought we were. In the past, you had to put thousands of dollars down just to get in the door before you started paying dues. We're trying to make it easier for people to get in and at least take that leap so they can check it out.
-
Bunch Quotes
It would be a huge mistake to be confident that we're better than they are, ... They run, lift weights and go to football class all year. I hear their numbers are down but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. They graduated a bunch of good football players but they have as many returning starters as we do.
