Richard Mann Quotations

We're going to develop all these guys and if we put the work in, at the end we'll profit from it.

He will do it, whereas a lot of guys either won't do it or aren't capable of doing it.

I think what you see is a big guy who has a lot of talent,

I think this shows that they did a good job in the offseason during the scouting process of finding guys that we like and guys that we feel can play in this offense and hopefully that will show up here in the near future,

I think Paris is just what we saw on tape. We knew coming in that Paris wasn't a burner. But he is smart, he's got excellent hands, he's a thumper, he's got that toughness and he showed that during the course of the preseason. And we got a good look at him in three of the preseason games and in all three, he showed up in the running game or the passing game.

I think J.R. is a big guy who's tough. He's not good with everything, but he's good enough to be able to work with him and he's got a lot of upside. He's got real good toughness, which is a big plus, and a lot of times you can't coach that. And he listens and will do what he's told.

Every day I go by, I see people I don't expect to see there. Many just come across it. They stand in front of it. They are absorbed by it.

I've never been any place where we kept seven receivers. With that said, I'm delighted that we were able to keep them. We're going to keep working and keep coaching them up and keep grooming them up and hopefully when their time comes, they'll be able to answer the bell.

Sometimes I've been in a situation where I've had to play receivers too soon and that's not always good. A lot of times, if things don't go right, their confidence goes down and before you know it, you've got a problem.

Right now, their job is to give the defense a good look. That's their practice, that's their game. From week to week, it'll be a different challenge with the routes. But we can work on our releases and coming out of the breaks, all that stuff. And when the time comes, I'm going to sit back and watch them.

Scholarship funding doesn't come from the state, it doesn't come from university coffers.

No question Ike is a true veteran. He has a lot of knowledge. We do a lot of things similar to what he's done. All we have to do is turn the words over. There's a lot of carryover, and he's good for the young guys.

For many survivors the memorial is their only real place to go to mourn. It is a place where they can mourn for their relatives as we could mourn for our loved ones.

Everybody has an opportunity to express their opinion.
