Quoting Tom Craft

On The Quarterbacks
"I think it is obvious to everyone that Adam (Hall) is the leader right now. I think that Lon (Sheriff) can do some things this summer that can really help him. He will be a factor in the fall. It's certainly not over."

On The Spring
"I like where we are, not where we were at. I think that we showed a real resilience on defense as the spring went on. The offense did an outstanding job all spring. We were not a three-and-out team. It was an encouraging spring."

On The Upcoming Schedule
"We have to work hard this summer to get ready for fall camp and we need to have a good fall camp because it will be real challenge. We aren't ready for it yet but we can be."

On Team Adjustments
"I think by and large has happened is that the experienced players having grasped things as fast as the younger guys because the spent so much time in a different system. Some of the time that is good, but we need to mold them to our way."

On The Safeties
"That is a position we tried to attack this spring. It is still an area where we need a lot of work. We aren't where we want to be but it doesn't mean we can't get there.

On The Final Scrimmage And The Spring
"I think Adam Hall really stood out. The opening drive was really crisp with good execution. I think Michael Franklin had a good spring. DeAngelo Nedd has some things to work on but he had a nice spring as well."
