John Chavis Quotations

Weve still got a ways to go, though. Were not a finished product by any stretch of the imagination.

Obviously I think enough of (Mayo) to be a starter. That's what we've done, and he's earned that. I feel good about him playing.

He is getting himself in a position where it looks like he can help us. He has worked hard and done a tremendous job getting himself in shape to play at this level.

He was really effective for us. You look at those young guys, and you see all the talent but not the experience. Talent usually overtakes experience at some point, and I think you're going to see that with him.

I thought we would be really strong up front, and those guys have gotten the job done for us,

I think we're doing some things better. We're headed in the right direction, and I'm excited about this group.

I think he's got a good nose for the football. He's a full-speed player. He tackles well. He's a really, really good athlete, and that's what you're looking for.

We had him the entire time. He was totally committed.

Our defense is built on pressure, but you've got to be flexible enough that you put your kids in a position to give them the best chance to be successful.

They were in better position to make plays (last night), and we expect them to improve daily.

Hey, that's our job, to stop them. If I ever have the chance, I'd do the same thing to them. You score as many points as you possibly can and it's our job to stop them.

I don't want to compare them, but this group has a chance to be special. We just have to go get it done on the field. They have practiced well. It's going to be fun to see what they do on Saturday.
