I got it for him, ... thinking that maybe one day he would get to play in this game. ... The kid had a dream, and now he's there.
Shockley's coming out every day and doing really well. He's paid his dues, ... I'll be ready to back him up, but he's the clear-cut No. 1.

I feel like I know the system the best. I can run all of the plays effectively and have a good grasp of timing with players.
I explained to him that a team builds around its quarterback, ... I told him that Georgia was not going to change from David Greene to someone else. I told him that D.J. was the No. 2 quarterback.
He looked pretty good. He's a natural born leader and he was leading out there.
My son is very family oriented, ... Family probably means more to him that it does to most kids. To follow his father and grandfather at the University of Georgia, that means a lot to him.
I went out there and made some good reads, threw some good balls, did it quickly. Overall, I felt like I graded out pretty well.
We've still got a lot to play for,
When your number is called, you've got to be ready. I think I'm ready.
Where Shock is now, he is light years away from where he was back then. He could play back then, but now he gets in there and he doesn't hesitate. He can play, and he knows that. That's what makes him so dangerous.
I didn't know what he was going through on the sideline. I didn't want to know what he was going through on the sideline,
I didn't feel nervous and was just focused on what I had to do out there. Everyone stepped up when they had to for us.
The bottom line in this business is we lost, ... I can't describe the hurt right now. We were undefeated and looking at a lot of great things.
We had the punt team going in, so I had to go in and do my job there. When I came back after the punt, coach told me to warm up. I was going in at quarterback.
I don't want to do anything to make this team lose.
