You always want to win your first game because it does set the tone for the season. Being a new staff, it's very important that we try and win this football game. We're trying to get a new attitude going, and there's nothing like success to get people to buy into what you're trying to do.
More Quotes from Pete Adrian:
We saw some guys at the (Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) Media Day -- Rodney (Hughes) and Vernon (Edwards) -- and we talked. There are no ill feelings. I'm looking forward to seeing them. I'm thinking about giving a chest bump to Larry Summers. He and I used to do that all the time.Pete Adrian
We were very disappointed in the way our special teams played. Those things got us off on the wrong foot and got Virginia State off on a high note, and we never recovered.

I think we're improving every time out. A lot of teams take a step forward and then go backward a little, but this team hasn't done that. I'm pleased with our progress.

Daryl has certainly been a bull. He's a young man with great balance and he's extremely strong. He's able to lower his shoulder and run over people. It takes a couple of people to bring him down. He's been great as a blocker, as well as when we put him back in the I formation or the one-back. He's got very good hands, too.
