Physically he's ready to play, but mentally he's not. Patrick Willis is going to have to play most of the snaps. Hopefully we can spell him once in a while, but Robert's not ready to run our whole defense yet.

The offense is not showing the production that I want it to, and we need to go to another guy.

Guys are moving up to Memphis. Guys are going to Houston. Guys are going to North Louisiana. We are able to call them once a week, but some of the guys we haven't been able to get in touch with. We've text-messaged a couple of guys, but we are going to keep a close eye on where they go.

I think we need to get back to the basic fundamental parts of our offense that I brought with us from USC. I was able to spend some time in California with Coach Carroll and those guys. Hopefully we can work out some of the kinks we have on offense.

Our offense is designed to run against eight-man fronts, and we just didn't get it done. We're going to have to take the opportunities to hit the long ball downfield too. They were there last week, and we just didn't hit them.

Robert had his chance. He may have his chance again, but right now, I feel Michael Spurlock is the better quarterback. It was obvious tonight.

We could not stop (Vanderbilt quarterback Jay Cutler) on third down. I'm the defensive coordinator, so I take full responsibility.

Not in the Pac-10, not like them. It's hard to simulate Chris Perry in their offense. I feel like our defensive line has to be able to get in the backfield and try to bring him down, because when he gets in the open field, he turns it on.

Art Kehoe is a fantastic addition to our staff. He brings energy and great passion for football to our program. He's an outstanding recruiter and has coached some of the best lines in collegiate football.
