Quotes about the Hawaii vs. Louisiana Tech game from the Shreveport Times

ST = Shreveport Times

About how UH's offense is completely different than the option running offenses they faced from Navy and Nicholls State, La Tech coach Derek Dooley said:
"We have to say that everything we've done for the first three weeks -- forget about it ... it doesn't work anymore. We have to switch our personnel around ... change who's in the game. We have a base defense, but everything's different because it's four wides. It's throwing it every down ... it's doing some one-back screens and runs. It's how you pass rush. What are your keys are up front?" (ST)


About how their extra half week to prepare for this game gave them time to evaluate their team, Dooley said:
"It was a great opportunity for me to reflect on the team on where we are. And we had a good heart to heart with the team yesterday. We had an extra padded practice that we hope we improved fundamentally on some things. And we had an extra day to prepare for Hawaii. If we manage it the right way, it certainly helps. Hawaii's in the same boat, too, so all things are even." (ST)


About how Senior RB Daniel Porter hasn't had a good game yet this season, Dooley said:
"He hasn't played well. He knows it and he feels bad about it. I think he's doing some things to correct it. We'll have to run the ball better than we have and I think we will in time. But the good news is we have the young freshmen who have showed some promise." (ST)
