Clancy Pendergast Quotations

We're not going to make excuses. We just have to play better.

I went to Austin to visit friends after Texas won the Rose Bowl. I went to their celebration at their stadium, and it was a sight to see. I watched Young to see how he would handle himself in that situation. I couldn't believe how charismatic he was. I watched him with the fans and with his teammates. I was so impressed.

It's just getting that initial third-down situation controlled. I think that will take us a long ways to establishing some momentum early in games. And, obviously, tackling a little better would have helped us on the opening drive (last Sunday).

It's (the defensive scheme) going to give every player on the defense an opportunity to make plays, especially guys that we've added.
