ESPN Q&A w/ Jerry Kill


The way these young people are nowadays, it'll be 10 o'clock our time, and that's when they go out anyway. I'd like to think you get to play on TV, on opening night of college football, you'll find a way to get ready to go.
I heart Jerry Kill.
 

Once again, Kill doesn't mention Cobb as one of the running backs that will make an impact.


Everyone knows about MarQueis, but who else is going to make plays for you on offense this year?

Kill: From a receiver standpoint, we need Devin Tufts to have a great year, and he's had a very good camp. A young man who has come out of nowhere as a true freshman who has had a really big impact on what we do is Jamel Harbison. Marcus Jones, who is returning from an ACL injury, has had a good camp. Another true freshman is Andre McDonald, a young man who is a big-play guy, a guy who can go vertical and make plays. Those kids, Derrick Engel, we've got some length and speed that we maybe didn't have at that position. And then out of the backfield, with Donnell Kirkwood, James Gillum, K.J. Maye -- a true freshman who's a big play guy -- and Devon Wright, we haven't had that a year ago. We've added some speed and some playmaking ability on offense. That's something I was concerned about. We won't know how they operate and how they'll play until game day. We're young, and that's scary, but we're certainly more skillful than we were a year ago.

Yep, and he talks about not getting too excited as well, that's one thing I'm curious about. Sometimes you can be too jacked up and then mistakes come into play cause you're just running on such high intensity. I wanna see them come in fired up, but extremely focused.

He is not going to make an impact unless he is playing and he isn't going to be playing until he learns how to block on a blitz.
