POLL OF THE DAY

"We wanted to go somewhere away that was significant, not just around the corner ... We're bonding. We're getting closer. We're getting to know each other"
"This is not to demean any of the former coaches, but this is the best staff I feel like I've ever had in my coaching career, from youth all the way up. These guys are good, fundamentally sound"
"Danny's progressing. We're optimistic. We're hoping he's going to return sooner than later. He's probably, most definitely, is going to play against Georgia Tech"
