I was really conscious when I went down there that I needed to gain the respect of my new team mates. Respect is a really big thing in rugby. That is what spurred me on to improve my game.
We got the protection we needed on that play. Jordan made a great throw and Brandon made a better catch.
We needed some better housing; we needed some nicer housing. We didn't need 156 beds.
We knew we really needed this game after laying an egg against Pitt. I don't think we really believed in ourselves that we could win a big game like that, and we came out and did it tonight.
What's sad about it is that, considering the destruction in the country, with looting and so on, we needed every dollar for reconstruction.
We felt Brandon would have some opportunities in this game. He needed to take advantage of them and he did. He's been playing at a high level and he's been a tremendous spark in every football game we've played.
We think the measured use of such bonuses would help stabilize our shrinking acquisition workforce until recruitment efforts can fill the depleted ranks of these sorely needed professionals.
In class work, it is easy to learn only what is needed for a grade. When doing research, I try to understand what I am studying completely. Another great thing about it is that I get to work one on one with professors in my field.
