Rose starts off telling Lashlee how fun it’s been to watch so far- Lashlee thanks him and says it’s been fun to see the team come together
Rose gets into all the talent Clemson has, asks Lashlee if he feels good going into it- Lashlee says he does feel good and that him and the staff are excited to go watch the team play- talks about Clemson’s accolades- says this is why you come to the U- says we have to go out and play, game is still played the same way-
Krantz brings up the offensive line- how well they’ve played- Lashlee says we will only play as well as they go- they’ve gained confidence every week- says that’s what cool about this game, Trevor vs King, or our offense vs their defense, but not one player will win the game alone, it’s a team game-it’s about us- it’s just the next game- won’t define us one way or the other
Rose asks about the WR’s, specifically the veterans, if they are where they thought they would be in the offense- Lashlee says he didn’t know what to expect, had their best week of practice before FSU game- they’ve made some plays and if they don’t make the plays they are motivated to redeem their selves- touched on the young guys coming along and getting more playing time- there isn’t one guy that has to be the guy, we can spread the ball around-
Rose mentions about everything king can do, is there anything King has done to surprise Lashlee- Lashlee says he coached against him before, says he’s just amazed how consistent he is, the same player and leader everyday, moment is never to big for him-
Krantz talks about the TE’s, what a luxury it is to have them-Lashlee says its huge, have guys that allow us to be versatile, Mallory has been banged up, bye came at a good time for him, Louisville play that got called back showed what he could do-
Rose mentions showing Louisville play to NFL scouts, what a team guy he is with Brevin, talked about them playing at the next level- Lashlee says it’s no question they can both play at the next level, both equally happy for each other when they make plays-
Rose mentions uptempo offense, and again asks him if he’s going to slow down due to playing Clemson (what a puss) and putting the defense back out there to quick- Lashlee says that nothing changes, if what you do gets you to big game opportunities it doesn’t make sense to change when you get there, we have to be who we are- lot of confidence in our defense- talked about Venebeales being the best DC in the game, lot of time people change their plan, but we are gonna play our game and play our best-
Krantz asked about run/pass balance, asked if he was happy with it- Lashlee talks about balance, people assuming its 50/50, he says that’s not the case, each game is different, have to have the ability to take what defense gives you, but he think no one can win championships without running the football, if you can run the football it opens up the passing game, if you can’t no room for error in the passing game, Clemson is notorious for stopping the run for four quarters, and that gets people pressing a little bit, forcing turnovers, make no mistake to win this game or championship have to run the ball-
Rose mentions the freshman RB’s, playing faster, figured out the offense- Lashlee says definitely, seeing them in fall camp have to give them 4-6 weeks, after that he says they don’t see them as freshmen anymore, Hickson does a great job with them, Harris leading the way, getting them opportunities, playing on the road and rivalry games, feels great about them and handling them-
They wished Lashlee luck this weekend
