On First Scrimmage:

It wasn't as clean as some of our first scrimmages.

On D Line
I thought they did a really good job of having energy and enthusiasm. We did not probably play the run as well as I like us to. We've had much more dominant defensive line perfomances than we did on Saturday.

Thoughts on Gunner Stockton:
Gunner has done a good job, I've seen growth in Gunner. I thought he had a couple of mistakes, but he also played with much more consistency. I've seen this progression with Gunner were he's continued to get better, he's getting a feel for our system, he's a really good athlete. He makes mistakes that you can't make at the position, but the good thing is, after the mistake, he can recall what he's seen.

Injury Update on Ryan Puglisi:
Ryan Puglisi is dealing with a bit of a knee injury, it's something he's been bothered with since high school and he's been able to still throw. We expect him back
