We were very excited to be back on the field. The players were upbeat and very positive. The coaches are doing a great job. The retention of the players, as well as their conditioning, was actually pretty good.

More Jay Thomas on Wikipedia.It's not very important. A lot of our players have come to realize and appreciate what they have. Just to have air conditioning, to have a hot meal, opens your eyes. It changes the way you look at life now. Football is not the main thing here right now.
The knowledge of the game for Chris (Hester) has improved so much. He understands the scheme of the defense and the tempo of practice. He's grown so much and is a man now. He has a wife and kid but has handled everything well.
It was exciting for the players to put on full pads. Full pads allow the coaches to better evaluate the players. The players seem to step it up a notch when the full contact starts.
It's been tough. Tough on everyone. All of south Louisiana, course the Gulf Coast, and we've had members of our team be affected by this storm and playing the ball game today really gave us something to look forward to.
The team's focus after this past week's tragedy has been exceptional, considering the circumstances. We believe that we are ready to strap it on.
I was just happy to play. We are not going to hang our heads after this loss, because in the end we had a chance to win it and played a good game.
I couldn't be prouder of these men and the way they played tonight. I think the way we played says a lot about the character of the team.
