Quotes about Scout Bowl 2

About the Scout Bowl, Mac said:
"It was fun game." (HA)

HA Note; "The Warriors were able to experiment. Offensive lineman Nate "Snowflake" McKay was used as a blocking back. Steele Jantz played quarterback and tight end. He was camouflaged, wearing a green jersey — the color of the defense. Unfortunately, he did not wear any leg or knee pads. After a catch, he was drilled. He fumbled, then hobbled to the sideline. Wideout Joe Avery made the winning catch in overtime, breaking a 12-all tie and giving Austin his first victory in three Scout Bowl starts."

About how he turned a 3-yard loss into a 6-yard run for a first down, Dustin Bount (who played both RB and slotback) said:
"That's something I did in JC." (HA)

"I did that in my JC so I figured I'd show them something out here." (HSB)

About how he entered UH with the plan to play both volleyball and football, wideout Matt Kiel (who caught a 34-yard pass to set up the game-tying TD) said:
"We had to pick one (sport) at this time." (HA)

HA Note: "The event ended with Vai Sikahema's pep talk. Sikahema was an All-Pro player and former teammate of UH associate head coach Rich Miano. Sikahema defeated Canseco in a celebrity boxing match."

About how he benefits from redshirting, Ryan Henry said:
"It's very good for me. It gives me a chance to pick up on the offense, then I have another spring ball and another fall camp. I get a head start in school and can graduate after my senior year. I didn't want to waste a year and the seniors we have are good. It just worked out." (HSB)

About redshirting their JC WRs, Ron Lee said:
"If you can redshirt these guys, it's better for the program. They have three years instead of just two, it makes a big difference. You can see already from the first scout bowl to this one how much better the guys have gotten. ... I saw tremendous improvement. Offensive line, receivers, they're different already." (HSB)

About finally winning a Scout Bowl, Shane Austin said:
"I finally got one. I don't know if it'll be my last one but I just wanted to get a win under my belt. We've got a year of bragging rights. It's all good fun." (HSB)

About how he'll be celebrating the win over Sol's team for a week, Adam Leonard said:
"This is a one-week rule. I'm going to keep reminding (Elimimian) about it as much as I can for the whole week. It was fun to see the guys go out there and get excited about it and just play well. The past Scout Bowls have been kind of sloppy, but today they really showed a lot of skill out there." (HSB)

About how the Scout Bowl gives their reserves a chance to shine, Joe Avery said:
"It gives you an opportunity to show what you've got and play the best you can." (HSB)
