Pete Carroll John Quotations

They had good days. It's clear that John David has been in the system a long time. When you throw Mark in there and he's got to do it play after play, there's just a lot of stuff he has to catch up on. It's kind of what we thought at this point.

I don't have to make any decisions because when we started out, John David was well ahead of Mark. It couldn't happen at a better time.

John David is ready, he's as ready as a guy could be in a backup situation. I feel very fortunate we've had him in the wings.

John is talking to everybody, all the time. That's the way he handles his business. He's got a marvelous spirit.

That only makes sense to me. (Booty) feels terrific - he has no pain at all. To see John David feeling so good gives us the feeling he's going to jump out of this rehab. He wants to throw right now - he feels like he can throw right now.

John Walker's going to be in the rotation, that will make us stronger down the road,

We've got to make sure we get John David through the bulk of it. We'll have to go to John David more in practice.

We've got to make sure John David makes it back. I wouldn't count Mark out, he's done too well. Mark's gained more ground on him - he had a great spring. His bid to start has been enhanced by that.
