The deal is I have to like it because we have about seven or eight players who aren't practicing right now due to some injuries. We would have a very thin team if we played next week.

It was a very physical hard-fought game on a hard surface. You are going to have some of that sometimes.

All the tests so far have come back normal. I am just anxious to get back to work.

We're looking forward to getting a chance to show it off to recruits. We haven't had a chance to use it as a recruiting tool yet. It will be a selling point. It's been kind of remarkable that we've sold what we've had. So there's no telling what will happen now.

He (Carroll) makes them a whole different beast to defend.

He'll be a very good player in our program as time progresses.
