Texas State head coach Dennis Franchione

In regard to the New Mexico State loss…We had two opportunities inside the 10-yard line as anoffenseanddidn’tgetanypoints.Oneturnoverandtheotherweendedupwithamissedfieldgoal,apenaltyhurtusinthatsituation.Ididn’tseethereplayon Brandon’s catch but evidently he didn’t quite come upwithit.Ondefense,youknow,Ithoughtwedidsomebetter things, but we did not get stops on third and long.Ourguysarefrustrated,disgusted,disappointed,angry, made, they want to do better and those are all appropriate feelings for a team that’s struggled like they have, that’s okay. Anyone who has made a committed to do well, we all have those kind of feelings and we understand that.

Impressions on Georgia State…GeorgiaState,Ithinkisanimprovedteam.Isaidatthebeginning of the year that the bottom of the league is betterandIsawastattodaythatGeorgiaStatehasthemost improved rushing defense in the nation this year, that’sprettyimpressive.Youknowtheywere23-21Saturday with Lafayette and we have a lot of respect for that score, certainly, as they had a chance to win the game. Their quarterback, Arbuckle, is playing really well, he may be an all-conference quarterback. He’s pretty accurate, pretty spot on. They aren’t running the ball foralotofyardage,butIwasreadingtodaythattheyare maybe going to get a couple of tailbacks back that were hurt. They are throwing the ball really well, it’ll be a good challenge for us. This will be another one where we’ll have to play well in and make the most of every opportunity.

PlayersJerrid Jeter-Gilmon

What is the biggest difference you’ve seen, coaching change, on the defense side of the ball?We are going right back to basics. Basically the same things we’ve been doing since we were little. Basic tackling, technique, and trying to do the right thing the little things right.

What is the moral at right now, as a team?Just working the process and continually get better together as a team to get better results on Saturdays.

Demun MercerHow is Jones? The past few weeks, earlier he was doing pretty strong and it’s been kinda inconsistent since then. What’s his mindset?Ican’tspeakonhis[Jones]mindset,butIknowhe’sstillagreatplayer.Everybodyhastheirupsanddowns.Ifeellike when he’s struggling we’re struggling as a team, but we know how to win and pick it back up. We have to get back to playing Bobcat football.

What’s it going to take to turn around this season?It’sjustgoingtotakeeverybodyfromexecutionfromourcoaches to our players and just going out and winning it [practices]daybydayandwinningthegame.That’swhatIfeelit’sgoingtotakefromeverybodytoeverybodypartoftheorganization.
