We're just waiting on the NCAA appeal process. They can practice while they're in limbo. So hopefully we'll get good news shortly.

He looks good to me. He's been working out real hard the last three months probably. He's stayed in shape and he's got a lot of desire to get back into it. He's always been motivated on the football field, but education's first and foremost. Sometimes you have to go through mistakes and learn from them.

Raphael will probably be a right tackle, but if you're right tackle you have to know how to play right guard, too.

I don't think there will be more changes.

I'm going to save the evaluation of Kenny for later. We'll add more (plays) and his head will be swimming again, but he's done a good job of fighting through it. As soon as he gets it down he'll be really ready to turn it on.

We're not as healthy as we need to be, but we're ready to play. We have a lot of guys hurt, banged up, and we're still not sure who may play and who may not.

We're probably going to do something, whether it's at the stadium or (at UH) ... I'll be meeting with Herman (athletic director Frazier) and (assistant A.D.) John McNamara.

He has done a great job of progressing along as a coach. He was one of the smartest kids that I had, and very competitive.

Dennis said, 'Why don't you go to the baseball field? It made perfect sense. He came all the way here (from San Diego) to tell us that.
