Jon is a very good coach,`` Tice said.
- Brad JohnsonTo have someone like coach Tice call you and say they`ll give me an opportunity once you get out of there, it`s that much better to go in and do what you have to do and get out of there,
- Koren RobinsonIt looks like (Tice) wants to move in that direction this first week, and that`s fine, ... You play until you get tired, and then you tap out and the next guy comes in. I`m not going to have a problem with that for now.
- Michael BennettLike Coach Tice told me, I can`t get out there and try to jump back in and try to run and get where I was, ... I`ve got to step up the ladder. So basically I`ve just got to be smart right now instead of trying to be who I am.
- Fred SmootWe haven`t shown anything, ... We`ve been vanilla all preseason. I think that`s something Coach (Mike Tice) wanted us to do; just be vanilla. People know we`ve got a lot in store so to even tip them off or give them a chance to see what we are going to do is a disadvantage to us.
