Pittman Breaks Down Differences for This Spring Over Past Years
SAM PITTMAN
On how things have gone so far this spring
I am sure it could have gone better. I don't know how much better. We've been really excited about our new hires. Obviously, they had big shoes to fill in Coach Odom and Coach Odom were excellent coordinators. Very, very happy with where we are. I like the culture of the team. Very happy, very pleased with the two guys we've hired.
On how Enos Helps KJ Jefferson
I think he's really helped him. He coaches a little bit more of a pro-style offense. I think it's going to help KJ in the future and us now. A lot of individual work, technique work. I think he's really taken to it and I think he's done a good job with it. You'll have to ask him, but I think him and Dan have a really good relationship.
On the Impact of Enos as OC
I just think formationally personnel, we're trying to get a little heavier with tight ends. Obviously, we're going to play a little slower brand of football. Your quarterback is going to have to be into checks and things of that nature when you get to the line of scrimmage. For the most part I like to run the ball. I like to play action and I live to go deep. That's exactly what Dan likes and that's why I hired him.
On Different Approach to Spring
We've tackled. We've been physical. This will be our third live tackle of the spring. I didn't do it last year. I made mistake. I think you can win positions better if everything is live. If your quarterback is never live, you really don't know what you he until the season starts. Nobody is going to make the quarterback live, but if you don't tackle, you make everybody else not live as well. We wanted to get away from that and we're finding more and more about our football team this spring as well.
What Pittman Wants to See
We need some transfers in the secondary a some transfers in the wide receiver group to man up and take ownership of those spots.
