35 Quotes by Chris Pardue

They are both solid runners. I don't know if Porter will play against us or not, but Thomas is a good back, too.

It's kind of a committee thing for them now. If you don't keep the quarterback in the pocket, he will really hurt you running the football. We have to shut down the run completely to have a chance to win. If Danville gets their skilled guys in the open field, we are going to have a lot of problems. They don't have Turner, but they have done a great job at adapting their offense to the talent they have.

Danville still looks good to me. They have a very quick, athletic team. They are similar to Henry Clay talent-wise. Maybe they don't have the size of Henry Clay, but they are doing good things with their offense. They are using a lot of misdirection to slow down your pursuit. They are getting the ball to their athletes in the open field and they have a lot of guys who make plays. They look like the same old Danville to me.

They connected four times on third down conversions on their first drive and that's completely unacceptable. We never did slow them down.

They attacked up front, and we never got our running game going. I thought Tyler ran well, but I didn't think we blocked well. And I don't think Grant played as well as he has the first five weeks. We've got to move on offensively and do other things.

Their quarterback will also run. He'll roll out like he going to pass, but it is a designed run. He can hurt you with his running. He'll throw just enough to keep you honest. But I don't think they are going to try and beat us by throwing the football.

I challenged them all week in practice. Our defense played really well. They made tackles, and we hadn't been doing that.

Grant is getting better every game and played very well in the first half. However, he still has to get better with his decision making. He made a couple mental mistakes (on interceptions) in the second half.
