2019 SALT LAKE STALLIONS QUOTE SHEETS

- Dennis Erickson on the coaching staff and what they are looking for during these early practices:

"They are all excited about what's going on. We sit down (as a staff) every night and talk about the players that they are coaching because we have evaluate where we are at, (as far as) who is going to make the team and who isn't going to make the team. That is what it is all about. That is the difference between college football and pro football. You have to get down to a certain number, and if you are not doing the right things as a player you are not going to play and that is kind of where our evaluation process is right now. We evaluate them every day. Not just on the field but in the classroom, where we are studying and giving (the players) plays and stuff like that, so its 24/7 and its 24/7 for us as far as evaluation. We want to have the best (team) to help us win."

- Dennis Erickson on the quarterbacks and where they stand after these early practices:

"Well we have four that are really good. Josh (Woodrum) is playing really well right now, B.J. Daniels is playing good, and he is backing (Woodrum) up. (Austin Allen) and (Matt) Linehan, both those guys are pretty darn good. But the first two I mentioned, Josh and B.J., are leading that group right now, so we will see how it goes as time goes on. But Austin (Allen), he's not playing bad and (Matt) Linehan is playing pretty good to. I am happy where they are at, but we will see how it goes. It changes when you put pads on, so it's a little shaky the first part of practice today at that position."
