Our players know that we try to come in each week and put ourselves in the best position to have a chance to win, and sometimes that means some people playing more than others; sometimes it means using different personnel groupings in different weeks.

The manager and the fitness staff condition every training session. They plan it out week by week on what players need. If players need a rest, they will do that; if players need to work hard, they will do that as well.

In club football you have your players and staff with you all the time, preparing for two games a week, you know them inside out, you have a discipline over them.

The coach's job is to get the best players and get them to play together.

I think the great part about what I do is that there's a scoreboard. At the end of every week, you know how you did. You know how well you prepared. You know whether you executed your game plan. There's a tangible score.

You've got to get good habits of working hard so that when that play comes up during the regular season that you're able to complete it and do it the right way.

At the beginning of the week, when we do our game planning, we look at the opponent and all the unique things they do.

When you start out in a team, you have to get the teamwork going and then you get something back.

You play like you practice and practice how you play.

You continue to build and work on new things, and continue to beat offensive linemen, week in and week out.
