Wes Meier Quotations

When you think of that type of guy, it's going to be Joey. He has the ability to be every bit as good as Jerome.

We're going to have to (wait). There's no reason to pick one right now. It's not clear-cut enough to say one's better than the other.

I feel really good how Wes and Royal are doing right now. We've got to see some more and get more in (before naming a starter). We haven't been out enough. Right now, those two have distanced themselves from the other guys.

He'll work his butt off to be the guy. He knows what his strengths are, but he knows he needs to work harder to get better at his passing and be a complete quarterback.

We think he can come in and be a decent guy to compete for that job. We need to get better in our passing game. We didn't have the most prolific offense, and we think he can definitely help us in that area.

I was very pleased with the run game. The offensive line did a great job.

Johnny's a great addition for us. He's a tough kid that runs the ball hard. He's got finesse, but he's also hard-nosed. He's not going to cower away from any defender. He was a great addition in that respect.

We wouldn't have gone after him if we didn't think he would come in and be an impact player. He's one of the best corners I've seen in (the Western States Football League). He can cover and has good speed and can lay a hit on, all the things you want in a cornerback.

We could do a better job opening things up, that's for sure. There are some days when things just don't go your way like they did last week.

There's no doubt in my mind that his experience will help us. He's a complete package runner.

Right now, we're not ready to make it. I know people are anxious to hear it, but we're looking for different things from different quarterbacks.

Defensively, we had a tough time bringing them down. We gave up a lot of extra yards we shouldn't have given up. We have to get ball carriers wrapped up.

The biggest concern I have right now is the numbers on our o-line and d-line. We're so short that most of those guys are taking every rep and they're kind of getting beat up a little bit.

That money benefits the whole athletic department. Our programs can get much better all the way around if we spearhead it with the scholarships.

You can't take anything away from (Texas State). They are one tough ball club. I give them a lot of credit, but there are things we need to fix.

You want to play the best and be the best. I think the people at the university and in Southern Utah are starting to understand if they go out to a game, they're going to get a good game.
