Dirk Koetter Ball Quotations

Spring football is a two-way street. You don't want guys that are going to be out long term and have to have surgery, but yet, you've got to protect some guys, too.

Keegan Herring has been outstanding, but he is making the jump from high school football to the largest stage in college. I just think it is much better for us to have Randy help transition Keegan in as well.

We're going to be able to run the ball better than people think we are because of that O-line and the tight ends. Still, the bottom line is you've got to score points and win.

Our perspective is based on what we see on TV in New Orleans. That's a tragedy. Our mindset is: How are we supposed to go play a football game there? We've been told that life is not normal in Baton Rouge. But I don't really know what that means. Sure, there's some doubt. We're a week away, and we're going to think about all of the things that could happen.
