Pretty darn. He was a busy guy. He was right on course to being a heck of a football player.

If we're going to run the football, and if we're going to be an explosive offense, it's going to start up there in the trenches.

Right now, we don't have him blowing up any receivers coming across the middle for obvious reasons. So, he will shine when it's live. He's got the experience. I know he's ready to do that. He's been just kind of holding back. Chomping at the bit, sort of. You'll see it.

I care about this state... and I feel a responsibility to get things done. If we stay healthy and play smart we can be a playoff team. I think we're on the right track.

I'm frustrated we weren't doing things right, but that's football.

Is he going to be as good as he's going to be halfway through the season or next year? No. I mean, he's just a kid. He's just learning this stuff. But he should be ready to be productive and capable and able to make some plays for us in that game, whatever his role might be.
