It was a great trip for the kids. It's not like we played a patsy team, definitely.

It was first-game jitters. Gainesville's a great team with a great tradition. They had three scrimmages already, and this was our first action.

Unless my players are fooling me, I think they have no clue to how big this is. I don?t think they understand the magnitude of what high school football is like there, and what we?re getting into. On one hand, it worries me. And on the other hand, I?m OK with them not flipping out on this thing.

We used to be a pass-happy team, now we're a run-happy team. We have a good group of running backs.

We used to have the gym rocking. Kids couldn't wait to get in there. You had to get in there early to get seats. In those days, the basketball team was making more money than the football team.

The kids played really well and played incredibly hard tonight.
