”No. 1, I love the spring game weekend. It’s great. It’s kind of like where the past, present and future all come together. You have the football alums, and I love seeing all our former players that played here long before I coached here that come out en masse, and our current team and families and recruits. I think it’s a great weekend. We try to do it, if it’s at all possible we try to do it on Rutgers day so it’s a great day for Rutgers University and our football program and we’ve been able to do it again this year.
”This is still college football in my mind, and pro football is a great game, and college football is getting more and more like pro football. But there are still some things that are unique to college football, and spring game is one of them. So I’m looking forward to it. We are definitely going to have our spring game and can’t wait. Yeah, there’s a lot of good developmental time that comes between now and then, and that’s what excites me the most is we have a really good football team coming back and I’m excited about coaching them. There’s a lot to be done between now, and when we kickoff against Ohio, and this is one part of it for sure.
”I always enjoyed joint practices when we had them in the NFL. But you have to go with the right team. Some of the nonsense that goes on NFL is just that, nonsense, guys fighting. Everybody that we did practice with, we had a rule, any fights, you’re gone. That worked fine. They didn’t have any of the nonsense, and you got really good work. We’ll see. I would not be opposed to it in training camp, either. You don’t get preseason games in college football. That would be really good. Again, we’ll see what comes about.”
