" Program on. Four games last year hardly a banner year by normal standards -- great year coach of the blue depths could cut -- and a -- and 57 players coming out of bring this past year. He had less bodies -- football players. Well any coach would tell you winning starts in the practice field that's exactly where we caught up with coach cut in Durham to talk about this year's blue double team."
" What coach -- you step on the field a year ago and -- saying that. You want to -- Ferrari your biggest priority was to teach this team how to win. Now a year later where are you that well I think we've pretty unbelievable strides because he earned your way to me. Nobody gives you that -- and -- I think probably. Before it was. You -- You do realize. Looking forward to this year I gotta think that as the head coach or some level of comfort have a quarterback with 34 career starts under his belt. More than shown up more of a better mood. Include players. Actually. This is great you know thank goodness the first time in his career he's in the same. Plus all the scoring. Much more consistent. Bad news and and that's where. Over run defense again you don't ever like there. Say hey we lost these guys want to look at who got left but when you when you do lose a player like I'm Michael tell you really. Those -- the kind of guys that she's just kind of have to do without you never really replace a guy like that -- I applied for the NCAA should we could play -- finished with twelve and she's going. I don't just want to -- We won't replace him but. I know finish there. Did you -- a really good veteran linebacker -- challenge one guy on our feet. You can take challenges. As we can see how he steps of the -- linebacker position and didn't -- so bossy. It's such an improved product. They are on fire want to play all out oil. Would make a few tackles with a lot of -- storm I'm really excited about our front -- like coach for for this season Purdue football what would you consider. A successful season -- asking for wins between -- giving -- numbers you. You want but what what it would how you take that next I never take numbers. What will always see his own shoes before."
" fourth quarter. Want to see guys certainly win more than lose. But most of the things it -- was pleased me the most. It's food for rushed to be the end truly the end and I'm not talking about giving it lip service. All twelve football game. The -- you know really intended you know losing streak but were better football team they have more free. People might. Say they want to check my favor after -- and that in the you know losing streak but there's a said we were good football players."
" Well they won a national championship as offensive coordinator Tennessee heat coach both of the Manning Brothers but it seems it now in Durham for coach cut look at kind of -- debate. Well he wants to teach them that here or shall we compete. From start to finish developing depth. Then and those are the key ingredients to winning and I have given time and given the resources I believe coach cut into."
