All things considered, how do you feel like Anu performed this past season?

A: “When he was healthy, I thought he played pretty well. He missed some games, obviously, with some injuries. There’s still another level he can get to. He’s a talented guy that I think is ready to take the next step. He had a really good year in his first year as a starter. This year was kind of up and down. Some of it was due to injuries. But now I think he’s ready to take the next step.”

How confident are you in running back Nick Wilson’s ability to stay healthy?

A: “We’re hopeful. Football’s important to him. He’s had some tough luck this year. We’re better when Nick is healthy for sure because he’s a really good player. We didn’t do any contact with him last spring and probably won’t do much with him this spring either. I feel good that he should be fine by the fall.”

You interviewed at South Carolina but didn’t take the job. What’s your takeaway from that whole situation now?
