FERRIS FOOTBALL MEDIA DAY COMMENTS
Head Coach Jeff Pierce
"We've seen a tremendous committment made by the people in our program. We're ready for our first test and a chance to play a different opponent since we've been going against each other since the spring."
"Our defense is a veteran group that has come a long way and is gelling well together. A number of guys back there return with significant playing experience."
"Offensively, we're a young group but we've shown improvement throughout camp. Hopefully, we'll continue to see those same things as we go thru the first few weeks of the season. Several young players have came in and been impressive during camp so that is a great thing to see."
Senior All-America Defensive Tackle Jake Visser
"We have high expectations going into the year and we've worked hard all summer. Defensively, we have a lot of experience and our unit has played together for quite some time so we expect big things. It's exciting going into a game week, especially since this is my final year."
Senior Wide Receiver Cole Meredith
"Even though I'm older, I really think the game is still so enjoyable and fun. As a group, we just want to win this season. I'll be happy with whatever my role is as long as we are winning."
Senior Defensive End Travis "Snoop" Eising
"We've got a good group of seniors who are going to lead the way this year. We're excited and ready to go play Tiffin. We're expecting good things this fall and it's time to get it rolling."
Junior Quarterback Eric Grozenski
"It's a big role to step in as a quarterback in pressure situations when you've never really done it before during a game. It will be a new role for all of us, but we're up for the challenge and ready for things to go well."
