Jeff Genyk Good Quotations

When you think of the MAC, you think of good quarterbacks. When are those quarterbacks sacked with a four-man rush? Very rarely.

One of our alums is an elementary school teacher there. He called the office one day and said they had this real good player we should take a look at. We evaluated him on film and liked him. And he's got an aunt and uncle in southeastern Michigan.

He's got good size. I think he's going to be a good player, but he would qualify as a sleeper because I don't think people knew about him.

Other than the ice-cold weather we're doing fine. We had a practice on Tuesday with a 20 mile-per-hour wind out of the north and with the wind chill it was about 10. It wasn't a good day to be a quarterback or a receiver.

We have a lot of young players. But they're playing really good together. They're just making a lot of plays.

They give up very few big plays. They're very good at keeping the ball in front of their good tacklers.

It was crucial for us that he step up. He struggled some late last week against Cincinnati (a 28-26 loss), but he came through at some crucial times for us today. And it always helps when you can start off good and fast like we did.

For that type of size, he's very athletic. He's got very good feet. He can really move laterally well, and he can really catch the ball. We look at him as a dual threat -- blocking and catching the ball.
