We have to find two offensive lineman to replace those guys. That's a priority.
It depends on how well he does. We'll stick with him. If he does well, we'll stay with him. If not, we'll look at something else.
From what I hear, Hammond was hit harder than we were so it's probably good we're playing the game a couple of days later. It should give them more time to clean up. Considering everything that has happened with this hurricane, we're just happy to be playing, regardless of what day it is.
Tony, he's ready to go.
I lament for UAPB because they're in that situation. We were in that very same situation, and we had to leave at 7 o'clock to go to Hammond and play the same day. We are all experiencing discomfort with hotel accommodations. Believe me, I don't like traveling the day of the game. Traveling the day of the game is a huge inconvenience for a football team.

We want to be able to find somebody who, if Tony goes down, can come in and we won't have a big drop-off.
