CHRIS KLIEMAN, HEAD COACH
Opening Statement…
“Good afternoon, everyone. We'll start off by thanking all of our veterans on Veterans Day for the sacrifices the men and women make for us to have our freedoms and for all of us to do what we love to do. We’re praying for all the men and women that are in the service and what they've done for us. As we finished up the bye week, we start back today. The guys had lift this morning, and we'll have a practice today. It was a good open week last week with regards to some of the things that we needed to get done, which is a lot of our younger guys getting some full-padded practices, playing against each other, giving our older guys that have played a lot of snaps a little bit of a break. From a recovery standpoint, we were able to get a couple of days in (where we) didn't put pads on with those guys. We still have a number of kids that are still nursing some injuries, but I believe that everybody will be available for this Saturday.”
