Lance Manning Ball Quotations

We were leaving some holes open underneath. We do a good job, most of the time, of covering the deep ball and stopping any big plays. It's the nickel and dime stuff we need to work on stopping.

Our front's solid, we're just not in good enough shape yet, but that'll come. Marcus (Graham) is smart, and, really, an excellent athlete. It's his first year playing football. We're lucky to have him out here. Burgess is such a physical player, and he'll get the ball more on offense too.

I think the players will put pressure on themselves to win because they are aware of Norman North's past. As coaches, we tell them to just go out and work hard every down, play to win and have a good attitude. If we do that, we'll win football games.
