“He comes in with the winning mentality,” Montgomery said. “You would think from a magnifying glass he’d have so much pressure on him just being in the position that he is. But he’s so calm and composed. He’s just taking every rep as a game rep, and it’s very cool to see.”
“There are so many other players outside of him who are opting out, I would like to think they would make a way,” Tyki Irving told Rolling Stone. “It could be like every third game. So it still gives you a full season of being interactive and being on the court, but with the limitations that they’re, of course, oppressing upon you.”
“Better at-bats, hit the ball in the strike zone, don’t chase,” La Russa said. “Can’t strike out like we’ve been striking out (eight Saturday). A day like today we’re back on our heels. The other team beat us to the punch, offensively and defensively. That’s not how we play.”

“I felt like I got up here (to the majors) quick, which I was very humbled about,” said Vaughn, the No. 3 pick in the 2019 draft. “But there’s definitely a learning curve. You’ve got to learn the pitchers, learn how they’re going to pitch you, learn how to slow the game down even though it tries to speed up on you. Just show up every day and be a professional.
“I’m trying to win a game, not lose a game, and I know that sounds silly because we just lost it,” Bielema said after making a similar decision last week. “But it’s the decision I’d make 100 times over to go for it —ball on the 5, the defense has been playing that way the whole way. I’d do it 100 times over.”
On the third play of Wisconsin’s next drive, defensive tackle Jayson Ademilola forced a Mertz fumble, and Isaiah Mosley recovered it at the Badgers 46. Pyne, who replaced Coan in the third quarter, hit Austin for a 16-yard touchdown with 9 minutes, 34 seconds remaining, putting Notre Dame up 24-13.

“Now, in the preseason they had nakeds, but those types of nakeds that he threw back to Jesse James, that’s a dream in the regular season when someone is game planning, as are some of the runs that he had. I think the Browns will have a plan of attack for how they want to rush him and contain him to the pocket. So you’ve got to do things to get him on the edge. That’s where his strength is right now. He’s got a long way to go as far as reading defenses. He missed that easy Sam/Mike blitz against the Bills and he got hit in the face. Matt Leinart did that and had his collarbone broken in Arizona, and that’s like the easiest blitz there is. He missed it completely. So he’s got a long way to go just to be a drop-back guy, and his strength is buying time, creating space with his feet and then running.
