Finley: "It Was Fun"

NC State senior quarterback Ryan Finley talks about the Wolfpack's offense in the 2018 Kay Yow Spring Game.


What were your thoughts on the game?
It was fun. Unfortunately it’s not the best way to end spring because you want to see guys perform but it was a fun time and good way to cap off spring.

Fun or miserable?
It was a little both. It wasn’t quite as bad as Notre Dame two years ago but the older guys have some practice in that weather. In my eyes I see it as a good way to practice in that condition and I think we’ll be more ready for that if we see it during the season.

Was it PTSD back to the Notre Dame game?
No doubt. Definitely.

What did you think went well?
I thought we ran the ball well. I thought we saw some of our running backs have nice, long runs. It was good to see them break through that second level. Nakia ran hard, Erin ran well. It was good to see us get the run game going down the stretch. It was good to see those guys have some good runs.

What did Coach say after the game?
We didn’t talk for long because it was raining out there but he just said stay safe and come back on Monday ready to work.

How has the offensive line looked with holes to fill?
Fedd-Jackson and Witt have done a really good job filling in. The new Band of Brothers is a work in progress but having guys like Big T, Bradbury, Tyler leading the charge, those guys have so much experience. Watching them step into the leadership roles has been really fun to watch. No doubt we’re going to be ready to go.

How big was the deep ball on the first drive of the game?
Yeah, in that weather it’s a little bit of a relief to complete that first ball and to have it be on 3rd and 10 like that and the deep shot to Kelvin. I knew on 3rd and 10 I could rely on Kelvin to make the play. That was a good way to start the scrimmage. I think everybody took a sigh of relief and we were able to find our rhythm.
