About to get started.

Change to the depth chart: Tyraiq Beals OR Hergy Mayala in for Thomas Lucas in the No. 2 WR slot.
 
Tough loss for the team...

For the way to unfold that it did was hard. We had a chance to get back together and go through it as a team with a fine-tooth comb. Some of those moments, normally we do it in a segmented way, it was a good moment.
 
With all credit to South Florida, Coach Taggart and the men on his team are doing a nice job.

We don't feel like we've been beaten yet. We've beat ourselves... Self-inflicted wounds. They are very preventable.
 
Thought Arkeel, Vechery, Noel Thomas played really well in the game.

There were some others that played nice games. The nose guards combined to play a nice game. Jul and Michael did a nice game.

Cole (Ormsby) truth be told is disappointed in how he played.
 
These unforced errors that manifest in penalties, you get a holding call or a personal foul. You get a DPI you get an OPI, there's aggressive things that happen in a game. To get another flag for taunting or another block in the back, that's just stupid. That's just bad.
 
The defense, force is not an issue, we keep it inside, we call that force.

For that to be an issue is bad.

On offense, 13 out of 14 drives ended on their side of the field. It was pretty remarkable... with as little points as were produced. Drives stalling inside the 10, kicking a field goal at the 2, 10, 25, we need more points.
 
In both areas, you can see on defense in particular, there was just an overriding frenzied tryhard mentality. Almost like a haphazard way. You can't defend like that.

When you look at the scoring and the movement of the ball, it was so unnecessary.
 
Paraphrasing: That exacerbated trying to do too much as we fell behind, even though it was only by one score for most of the game.
 
We had a hard meeting, it was a great meeting, once it was over there was closure. Now we're in week 8.
 
Marquise Vann: Doing a great job, doing all he can to become a better linebacker. He's working on how to become a better player, he gives it up for his brothers, he's a lead by example guy...
 
Play-calling: Our meeting encompassed a lot of different areas that everyone can improve on, every single person (including the coaches).
 
Cincinnati: Awesome on offense, the best group of wide receivers that we've played up to this point and arguably all season..match-up issues at every single spot, big offensive line, very talented backs, one big guy, two appropriate sized
 
On freshmen WR's: they're talented players and better than the rest, which is why they're playing. Have to cut down on play variety due to their aptitude, but they're the best ones we have.
 
DeLorenzo: 2-minute back, great teammate, really proud of the way he's taken on his role. It's really hard not to give th ball to Arkeel as much as possible.

Lemelle has a lower extremity issue that will prevent him from participating.
