Ainge is seeing the field really, really well. It surprises me how well he's seeing it right now. He's seeing things I don't see.

This is a decision I felt I needed to make.

(Ainge) is working hard and has a great attitude.

This isn't a response to criticism. This is a response to what I see on the field.

Erik is one step away from being our starting quarterback again. He just needs to continue progressing.

It's hard for me personally and hard for everybody on the football team, all the coaches and everybody involved with the program.

He's still young and needs a lot of work.

This one definitely ranks up there.

It's what we live and what we do. When you're not successful, it hurts ... hurts a lot.
