Carpenter did an amazing job, ... We all knew he had had a couple of bad outings. But there was no doubt in my mind he would be the Carpenter we knew and we had seen all year.

We knew they had a couple players, both named Moore. Jennifer Hinton did a good job on Andrea Moore in holding her her to four points.

If Carpenter hadn't been out there, it might have been easier. He got in a couple of jams, and he got out of them. That's why he's a 19-game winner.

If A.J. flies off the board and a couple of other linebackers fly off the board, then, (Carpenter has) a shot to get picked in the first round. If they don't, then he's certainly going to be a second-rounder. But after draft day, it doesn't really matter. All that's thrown out the window, and he's going to have the opportunity to play and be a contributor somewhere.
