On junior cornerback Devon Torrence, who passed up minor league baseball to stay for summer football workouts for the first time in his career:
"It's just about being acclimated to it year-round," Coleman said, "because he would have been in baseball mode by the time (football) camp rolled around, and it would have taken him two weeks to get his mind and body back in football shape. So I think he's steps ahead of where he was last year at this time, and I think he's mentally and physically ready to go.
"I know he talked to the coaches and he talked to a couple of the guys on the team, and we were sitting in my car one day after class and he was asking me, 'What do you think?' And I was telling him to do what you love and what's best for you. But I told him you have a great shot at starting and to be in the best shape and be mentally and physically prepared, you need to stay around. But giving up something you love, it's not easy to do. But he knew ultimately if he really wanted to be playing and be ready for the season, he needed to stay."
