The county attorney did what he had to do, ... I'm confident there was no intent on Thomas's part time bring harm to anyone. He made a bad choice, a bad decision, and outside of that I don't have anything in particular to say.

The difficult thing is that it's still an early season game, there's a change in the coaching staff and there's a number of different things,

The individual pass rush, which was a major concern, has made some improvement,

The good thing is we repaired, for the most part, a substantial amount of issues that we were concerned with. I was concerned with us fumbling the ball, and I think we managed the ball well.

I don't know. I thought he ran very, very well. Yes, he'll be a factor.

How did he play? Not very well, ... You saw in the second half he was a very competitive young man. Collectively, over the course of the ballgame, he probably didn't play too well.

I'm not thinking about dignity right now, but what happened and what we need to do to make sure it doesn't happen again, ... As bad as it was, we did have opportunities in the ballgame to make a difference. We didn't take advantage of the opportunities that presented themselves.

I'm pleased we won. That shows character. ... I'm more concerned with the fact that we found ways to self destruct. It's the same as was last week (against Florida International), three turnovers and 90 yards in penalties.

I'm making myself available. We communicate back and forth. I'm abreast of everything taking place.

That's certainly a concern for us, and maybe as big as any. The fact that we only have two sacks in two ballgames probably addresses that issue as much as any other stat that's out there.
