“We got to evaluate a lot of players Friday night. We have a lot to clean up before the season. We had way too many penalties. The coaching staff was happy with the physicality of the defensive and offensive line. We have to hit it hard in the weight room during the summer.
On June 1, 50 players from this team will be going on a college bus tour for 8 days. We need some rest to get ready for a very busy June.”
