Russ Purnell Quotations

Right now, the inconsistencies are plaguing us, and it's feast or famine. Part of it is that we're using a lot of people, so you're not getting that cohesiveness you usually have when you're using the same 11, 12 or 13 guys.

It's all part of the progression. In training camp, you're trying to put the right pieces in there. Some of the things we're coming up a little short on, but it's preseason.

It's not easy, but we started in April and May working on it. Right now we're rotating people around quite a bit, so we're not really getting the continuity we need.

That's one too many. One week you're happy, one week you're not. We haven't been as consistently good this year as we need to be. We've been below average.

It's not for the faint of heart. It's a sacrifice of your body. You might be 175 pounds like Dexter Reid and have to take on the wedge. You have to be a special guy. It's controlled mayhem.
