We didn’t quit. No one did that, no one pointed fingers. We did things [wrong] that can be corrected. We have a lot of young men who in two to three years are going to be making plays they didn’t make tonight. It isn’t going to be an eye-opener to go on the field for the first time. The speed of the game isn’t going to effect them as much, they’ve never seen anything like this 
I’m disappointed we lost, but we did some good things. It was a learning experience. The good thing is the bad things we did are little things and they’re correctable
That’s what you see with young guys who have never played. They try to do too much. We just have to hone in on them and teach them the right things to do
It was good to get a game under all of our belts. We didn’t play how we wanted to, but we’re going to learn from our mistakes ... We have to keep working hard on everything. We need to improve in all aspects.
I had to tell guys how to put their belts on the right way before the game. When you’re doing those things, you know right then and there you have an inexperienced football team
I think they’re a team that showed marked improvement last year. They’re a team that’s ready to take that next step and get into the upper echelon of the MAC. They’re hungry and they want to defend their home-field. We’ll get their best shot
I feel different this year. We have new coaches, a new scheme, I feel like we’re on a Division I level now ... I played safety last year, and our linebacker coach [Troy Johnson] transformed me to linebacker just like that. I feel good about this year and I feel good about going to Eastern Michigan.
