What they're saying

"I don't think there's any question we're going to be better on defense. We have more depth. They understand the system better. The addition of the mid-term guys, at this point, has worked out well for us. But we'll find out in September how good we are.” — coach Mike Gundy.

"You can't say we're where we want to be. But getting the young guys to learn the system, knowing what to do, the system is in place now to where everybody is just out there playing. From that standpoint we've made some strides.” — quarterback Zac Robinson on offense's progress this spring.

"We've been preaching and preaching to become a more physical team. When you have someone who can make a hit like he does it starts to build. No question about it. I've seen it everywhere I've been at.” — defensive coordinator Tim Beckman on safety Lucien Antoine.

"They're going to have to play with unbelievable effort or they're not going to be out there. I told them they're never going to take the game for granted. It's not promised to anybody. You'll earn your way whether your freshman or fifth-year senior.” — new co-offensive coordinator Trooper Taylor.
