Coach Kalani Sitake on the first day of camp
It was fun. It was cool because I was able to look at both sides of the ball and help out on the little things. You try to pick apart what things could be better as a head coach trying to see what we could do differently. From the offensive and defensive side, I was so used to being more involved and coaching a lot more that this was nice to be able to manage the team and try to see what we could do time-wise. Not as much hands-on as I’d like to be, but we’ll get there eventually.

It felt great, I was joking around with some of the guys after and I felt like I never left. It was so much fun to be back on the field with the guys and to be able to put on a helmet, jersey, and cleats and strap up a little bit. It was like Christmas morning, I loved it.

There are a lot of young players out there. A lot of players I’m getting used to. It still feels like the same team I’ve been with all the time since I’ve been here. I really like all the freshmen and all the new players. They really add energy. They’re just like me, just two years younger I think.
Coach Ty Detmer
Day one was good. It’s great to get out on the field. We’ve had a few meetings and couple light walk-throughs with half the group so it’s good to finally get a ball in our hands and run through some of the plays. It’s one thing to be out there versus air, and it’s another to be flying around against the defense. The big thing is we want to see guys go to the right place and take the right steps.
