Game 5 Prep: Head Coach Barry Odom Press Conference
There’s a plan to win. You talk about turnover margin, doing some small detail habit things right, preparation, competing, play calling, there’s so many things that go into it… You want to do everything you can, pouring into your guys to try to give them the chance to go play winning ball.
- Head Coach Barry Odom[Cooper McCutchan] has been really solid in practice, and he’s been getting better every week… He’s an overall very solid football player. He’s going to be really, really good as he continues to grow.
- Offensive Coordinator John HensonThe more they play together, the more confident they are with each other. I think we simplified a lot of things last week that allowed them to play faster, and they did. Between mental errors and things like that, they cut that in half compared to what it had been.
