I saw missed opportunities, I saw a missed tackle for a possible loss become a big play, and I saw missed assignments. They all equaled bad. In the end it's a bad sign.

A lot of our young players got a lot of reps. That will benefit them come fall. I'm encouraged with our overall effort. We're seeing good enthusiasm and good tempo on the field but we are still making far too many mistakes.

Defensively we weren't able to finish. There were a couple of times we could have had a tackle for a loss but the offense made a play and it ended in a long gain.

We?re making a lot of the same mistakes which is kind of disappointing. Offensively we have some guys who can make big plays. We are getting better in compartments but need to do a better job putting everything together. That comes with experience and better communication.

We've had a great offense here at Georgia Southern, one that did not require a tight end. What we will do here offensively will require a tight end and we would like to have at least four on the roster, so this is a good start for us. It was definitely a position of need.

Obviously this is an exciting day for myself and my staff.
