I'll post anything of interest here

"If we win some games maybe it will be a lot easier for me to come up here and talk about last Saturday"

"We're going to be just good enough if we do things right to win a whole bunch of games."

"I like my football team and I like the direction that they've shown in the last 48 hours. We also need to realize the urgency of getting those things fixed, the urgency of going and playing a complete football game together. We're kind of past due on that. It's time to go do it."

Talking more about the Cross deal, repeating what he said yesterday.

"We'll be relatively healthy." Expects Crockett to practice, Yasir Durant is cleared to practice.

Says if they play well every game should go to the fourth quarter.

On Purdue: both quarterbacks are playing very well, built the offensive line with some transfers and are able to run the football, play very hard defensively. Impressed with them.

Has followed Jeff Brohm over the years and he's doing a great job. Says they'll watch a little bit of Western Kentucky film to break down his scheme.

Anticipates Purdue playing both quarterbacks. Says the system is similar no matter who is at QB.

Asked about Marcell Frazier, says he thinks the team has good leadership

Asked about a disconnect between Cross and players Odom says no

On Thomas Wilson: Breakdowns against Missouri State was due to inexperience and poor communication, said Thomas Wilson stepped up and has done a great job. "Proud of what he did after week one on really getting back to playing some good football." Said he played very well on Saturday.

On Lock: Bet he's up watching film right now, he didn't like the offensive performance

Confirms Nate Strong left the team the day before the first game

On dropped passes: Really frustrating because after a solid fall camp in that regard, hadn't had a day like that. Hasn't broken down number of reps, but will need all six of the receivers that are playing over course of the season.
