(Do you want your team to use that game as a sort of benchmark or motivation? Jake Browning talked a little about that) “Yeah, but we’re a different team. We’re not reloading. We’re rebuilding. That’s our mindset. We don’t just pick up and put in – and I know we’re talking semantics here with mindset, but our mindset is, we lost all these good NFL players, and next year we’re going to lose more guys, and there’s going to be graduation and all that stuff. So it’s like, you’ve got to rebuild this. You’re a new team. So we start over and we’ll see where we’re at. We had a good spring. We’ve had a good summer. Huge fall camp in front of us, and our preseason’s going to be interesting, how we adapt, all these new positions, these holes we’ve got to fill. Whole new set of challenges.”
(Will Greg Gaines be ready to go for camp?) “Yeah, I think he’s going to be 100 percent. Our trainers haven’t said anything about holding him back, so I think he’s good to go.”
(Any player defections since the end of spring?) “No, not any scholarship guys. We’ll get into all that stuff on Sunday. A couple walk-ons who I think we’ve added in. I’ll get my list so everybody’s got that on Sunday.”

Bbk? Wellington? Will azeem move back from the dline?
This kind of announcement requires its own unexpected last minute press conference.
