The West Virginia Mountaineers have just wrapped up practice No.

7 of fall camp.

Head coach Rich Rodriguez met with the media shortly after to recap the morning.

Here are some of the notable quotes from today's press conference.

We were in shorts.

You can get a lot done in shorts, but you probably dont get as good of an evaluation from a physical standpoint.

But I thought we did some decent things and got a lot of work in.

Tomorrow well be back in pads.

Cams an athletic guy.

He was a high school quarterback.

Had a pretty good year for us last year and still hasnt come close to reaching his ceiling.

One of the fastest guys weve got, and he can take hard coaching because weve been on him for a couple years.

He had a pretty good day today.

And I told all three of those guys, the expectations for me or us are a little bit higher because they know the system and how the operation works, so they should take the next step in their development this year.

Jaden Bray can run.

Justin Smith-Brown can run.

Christian Hamilton can run.

Logan Rampers a big, physical guy.

Hes a 215-220-pound guy.

Jarel Williams.

Preston Fox, Im glad he came back because hell help us both inside and outside, and in the return game.

And our slot, this is as good a selection of slots as Ive had.

You look at Rodney Gallagher and ManMan Singleton, Jarod Bowie, and even (true freshman) Armoni Weaver, we got some pretty dynamic slots, I think.

Just running the offense and everybody says making a play, but sometimes youre in there and theres a busted assignment or the quarterback didnt do anything wrong, its just a bad play call or something, so we factor all that in when looking at them.

But just sometimes, when you go live with those guys, maybe they break a tackle, and their ability shows up even more.

Ive learned that in the past.

Oh yeah.

Pats got a little bit of experience.

He obviously knows a lot of the system, but its been almost 20 years or so, so theres a lot of stuff in our offense that we werent doing back then, and some of the stuff we were doing back then were not doing now.

So Pats still in the process of learning all that, but hes got a good demeanor about him.

Same thing with Noel.

Hes got a great personality.

Hes always excited to be out there.

I know he coached a little bit down in Florida and had some speed camps down there, but hes a natural football coach.

I mean, I can see it in recruiting and his personality in talking to guys that we recruited.

Hes going to have a great career in coaching, and hes still learning, but hes got everything it takes to be a really good one, I think.
