Mark has been a pleasant surprise for us. He has really responded well; the keys, the reads, he's got great ability, just his overall presence. It's good because he can now make plays both ways.

John's got to get used to where the routes are actually being run at and get used to the receivers so they are consistent. That is one of the things that really jumped out early on when Paul came here - to get the No. 1 receivers working with the No. 1 quarterback as much as they can. That's got to be a huge emphasis.

We were putting some balls on the ground. The picks, as many times as we get our hands on the ball, we can't put them on the ground. That changes the momentum of a game in a heartbeat.

He gave me those notes to reflect on the move, just like Coach Holtz had given him the notes. It's great to hear different philosophies on coaching.

We finished our last ball game with Iowa and were on an off-week and then we had to travel a significant distance to get to Hawaii. So we prepared for a certain number of days, let them have a couple days off, came back and traveled to Hawaii.

He has been a key element in numerous successful programs and he has been the architect of some of college football's best defenses during the past 25 years.

He is just beginning to get his feet wet. But he definitely will strike you. He's not afraid of anything.

He's a guy who can make a difference - make you miss - and he has the speed to pop through a little hole. They really take a pride in their running game. They'll take their shots down the field, but what jumps out at you - this year and last year - is that they're willing to be patient, willing to grind it out and do what they need to do to stay on the field.

They're a very unique offense; we knew that. They came out, especially in the first two series, in some things we didn't prepare for. They came out with two backs, which wasn't a high priority for them a year ago.

I like his strength, I like his gamesmanship. If he gets a shoulder on anyone it usually disrupts their path and that's not always the case at the running back position. So I like the power that he brings to the table.

You can take Saban's record when he was at Michigan State and when he was a coach in the Big Ten and put it against mine, and he can't compare.

Anybody we offered a scholarship to in the state of Wisconsin is in this program now.

They got coached all week, I'll say that.

He works hard, he's a great recruiter and coach, and he's a fantastic person on and off the field. I'm very happy he's a Badger.

Robinson made some people look silly on film, just with his ability to lower the shoulder. He's not looking to take a knee or a slide or anything like that. He likes to get as much as he can out of every opportunity he has.

After several discussions with both Gino and Antonio, I felt it would be in the best interest of both student-athletes and the Wisconsin football program if they did not return to the program.

I've really been happy with the progress of all three. It's really a talented group that I'm expecting big things from.
Bret Bielema

I like his strength, I like his gamesmanship. He sees an edge, he'll take it in a short fashion. He's got great power.
Bret Bielema

Those guys have been in the program now for two years, basically. They're not young anymore. We expect them to continue to develop. Just to be able to get their hands on the ball and make those plays speaks volumes about their ability to be playmakers.

I'm a big believer in competition bringing out the best in people. There's plenty of time for this all to shake out.
Bret Bielema

They beat us physically. I think it is something we pride ourselves on.
Bret Bielema

Jack is trying to take another step forward.
Bret Bielema

I feel pretty good about having an experienced guy like John back there. He's been through some battles before, and we'll need him to lead us through some more battles when we start our season. I'm counting on John to do some good things for us and get us prepared.

The one thing I knew as a head coach was I wanted to hire coaches that are good and eventually, as people know how good they are, people are going to want to try and hire them. Unfortunately, it was way too fast in this instance.
