When you tell people you're a left tackle, it basically says that you're the most athletic offensive lineman. To hold that position down, it's a sense of pride. You can get away with having a guard who's not as good. You can't get away with having a bad left tackle.

When you take a bye, you know that you will play a tough team. I think we put ourselves in a little better position this year. Scioto and Pickerington North had really good teams.

We've always been the underdog, and it's the kind of the position we expect to be in.

When I was playing, it was 10 or 12 plays that determined the outcome of a game. Now, because of the balance of talent in the league, it's come down to three or four plays a game.

We haven't been able to do that, in a number of cases but we just keep chipping at it, trying to find a way to turn that corner.

When I was out looking at different degrees, I felt it was the best degree to prepare me for any type of position in business with the exception of maybe marketing. The language of business is accounting.

I was actually getting to put myself in a position of observation of listening to the band, watching it, experiencing it probably closer to a fan thing than I've ever had the ability to do, or that I've ever let myself do. And I was just like, yeah, George is getting it on. And that's what you want for anybody's performance.

We're going to take a pretty tough position on that this year. These guys, in general, they're all making a lot of money.

I personally am going to insist that that person we sign has got to be in camp to start.

We're going to position ourselves militarily to be able to take the appropriate, decisive military action if that's called for, but at the same time trying to create the atmosphere with military forces that will get the people to talk to each other and find a peaceful solution,
