John Thompson Team Quotations

We're getting contributions from 10 guys on a regular basis. Scoring is great, but you have to get some rebounds and have guys buying into defensive schemes. So many times guys who score get the press, but the reality is that the last several games have been total team efforts. It's been a lot of fun to watch.

We're going to watch him next year (in the NFL). He's a really good player and you can tell the difference in this league, you get a fifth-year senior at quarterback and your team really improves.

Roy's probably worked harder than anyone on our team this summer. Hopefully, much like with our team, you'll see improvement. As we try to get things going here, we want to keep taking baby steps.

In this day and age, you have to understand if you have good players -- and your team has success -- then guys may leave early, ... We haven't gone into it that way, that Jeff's not going to be here, but at the same time you have to plan accordingly.
