00:00 - Good, good.
00:00 - Let's go.
00:01 - Okay, quarterback Garrett Green.
00:02 Go ahead coach for Garrett.
00:04 - Garrett, start off with the emotions coming off
00:07 of last week's disappointment.
00:08 Then you guys have struggles
00:10 in the first three series this week.
00:12 How'd you bounce back offensively from there?
00:15 'Cause you got going eventually.
00:16 - Yeah, yeah, I think that that's a testament
00:18 to how resilient our guys are.
00:20 You know, obviously coming off a loss like that at Houston,
00:23 you know, we were just itching to get back.
00:26 You know, we had some things go our way
00:28 and then things not go our way early in the first half.
00:30 But then eventually we kind of got going,
00:33 but you know, we just gotta score more points.
00:35 - What'd you see on the touchdown pass to Devin?
00:38 - Yeah, so it was kind of,
00:39 we kind of ran a tempo play and they tried to sub,
00:41 so not really sure what coverage they were playing.
00:44 And then he did a great job.
00:45 You know, we work scramble drill all the time.
00:47 He did a great job, you know, getting to our landmarks
00:49 and then, you know, just let it fly.
00:51 - Do you think you're more comfortable throwing
00:53 from the standstill from the pocket or kind of on the move?
00:56 - Yeah, I mean, I think it's whatever Coach Brown calls,
00:59 you know, whatever it is, if it's drop back,
01:01 if it's roll out, you know, I feel comfortable doing both.
01:04 - The fourth down and fourth and two where you kept it,
01:10 I mean, that's a zone read.
01:11 So what'd you see?
01:13 Would, you know, you keep it instead of handing it off.
01:16 - Yeah, no, it was just a complete and total misread by me.
01:19 You know, so I try to be Superman sometimes
01:23 and, you know, it bites me in the ass
01:24 and that was one of those instances.
01:26 - How's the team bounce back from this?
01:32 I mean, two disappointments in a row, so.
01:34 - Yeah, I think we just gotta go back to work, you know.
01:36 We still got a long season ahead of us.
01:38 You know, we're seven games in, but, you know,
01:41 we still got a lot more ball ahead of us.
01:43 - Garrett, any reasoning for the slow start
01:47 to each half today and why the offense
01:49 seemed to get better after a couple free and outs?
01:52 - Yeah, I mean, for the second half, you know,
01:54 it's always tough starting to drive, you know,
01:57 inside your own 10, you know,
01:59 just 'cause you're in your own end zone.
02:02 And, you know, the first half, that's on me, you know,
02:04 I gotta get the guys ready to go.
02:05 I gotta get the guys ready to play early.
02:07 And, you know, it's my fault.
02:08 - You are always upbeat, though, I'm sorry,
02:13 you know, up-tempo getting guys that are trying to do that.
02:16 That's part of your personality as a player.
02:19 Is that something different you feel like you have to do
02:22 to get your team going on that different approach?
02:24 - Yeah, you know, I'm gonna talk to the coaches
02:26 and, you know, see what they have to say.
02:28 But, you know, it's obviously something
02:29 we have to start games faster.
02:31 - Was that something that you were at all
02:34 expecting to happen, though?
02:35 Because you said that you guys were really itching
02:37 to play this game and then you have the slow start,
02:39 you gotta get 'em up, it doesn't seem to that coordinate.
02:41 - Yeah, I really didn't see,
02:43 really didn't see it happening, but, you know,
02:44 if I hit, you know, DC on that first third down,
02:48 you know, if I throw him a better ball, you know,
02:51 maybe the offense gets going after that.
02:53 So, I blame me.
02:54 - You got a while before you gotta worry about it, a week,
02:58 but going closer to home next Saturday,
03:02 have you even thought about that?
03:04 Did you think about that in the summer,
03:05 your first opportunity to play down there?
03:07 - Yeah, obviously I'm fired up to play back home in Florida,
03:10 but, you know, I'm gonna sit on this one until tomorrow
03:12 and then, you know, and then I'll get ready for UCF.
03:15 - Gary Peck on the fourth down,
03:19 what specifically are you reading on that?
03:22 - Yeah, you're just kind of reading grass over there
03:25 and, you know, I tried to be Superman
03:26 and, you know, a bit mean to the ass.
03:28 - Okay, anything else for Garrett?
03:34 Okay, thank you very much.
