He had some family matters, a personal situation he had to take care of. He's missed. But it will pretty much be business as usual.

It's hard for me and Will and the guys who have been here. We're having to relate things to the old to learn them. These new guys are fresh. Everything they get is new -- they should soak it all up.

It's hard to categorize what you haven't seen before. I guess what I'd say is: I can't believe he's a freshman. His instincts, his speed, you just don't see guys like that. He's going to be great one of these days.

As far as the money goes, it's good. A lot of people feel college players should be paid. I think, personally, the only way to keep the separation between college and pro is to not pay us.

He's a sparkplug for the whole defense. Even if the team's down and out, if somebody comes and just knocks somebody out, it can change the momentum instantly. That's the type of player he is. He brings it every play, and he can really change the momentum.

The offense only got in the end zone once, and we haven't been in this new system long so that is a good sign.
