Chattanooga Football Postgame Quotes
Western Carolina at Chattanooga
Finley Stadium - Chattanooga, Tenn.
Saturday - Sept. 30, 2017

Chattanooga Head Coach Tom Arth
On the momentum change of the two fumble recoveries
"That hurt us bad, obviously. We were in good position. We were down 10 and the defense was playing well, and then to give up two sack fumbles really changed the game. It put it out of reach in some aspects."
 
On pass protection
"There's a lot of things that go into it. It wasn't good enough. We didn't do a good job early on especially in protection. It made it tough to throw the ball."
 
On Bingo Morton
"Bingo has done a great job. He's got excellent hands. He catches the ball very well and has a good way about him when he gets the ball in his hands. He finds a way to make people miss and he always gets extra yards. It looks like he's about to be tackled and he gets three or four more yards which is really valuable. I'm very pleased with the way Bingo has played and the way he's progressed."
 
Who is Dominic Caldwell
"I'm very pleased with the way he came into the game. That's a tough situation to be in. I didn't want to put Cole in at that point not knowing what the situation was. Dominic came in and threw a touchdown, got the ball snapped, got the IDs set, the run game and the pass protection did a good job. I'm happy for him. I know he was excited and I know our team was excited for him that he got the opportunity to throw a touchdown."
 
Lucas Webb, Sr. -DB
On tonight's game
"It was not how we intended to come out. Adversity in the beginning but I'm proud of my guys because we didn't give up. We have to do a better job at executing and as players too."
 
On responding to the adversity
"I know personally there's a lot of things I need to improve on. I think everyone needs to have that attitude. One thing we can't do is be divided we have to come together. There's still a lot of football left. We have to come in next week and be ready to work, ready to improve."

Richardre Bagley, Sr.-RB
On loss of Bennifield to injury
"You never want to see a teammate go down like that. The one thing I liked though was seeing our team come together."
 
On the coming week
"It's like coach said in the locker room. We can't let this loss divide us. It's got to unite us. We're going to work hard, go back to the film room and do everything we can to come together and get better."
 
On seniors leadership
"We have to be that voice that people look to...when things get down, we have to be the guys that brings us together."
 
Tae Davis, Sr.-LB
On tonight's game
"We just have to execute. We miss a couple of tackles and give up a big play. We had a couple of misfortunate events, but that's just part of the game. We have to keep working to get better and execute."
 
On Homecoming game this week vs. Furman
"Tomorrow it starts with watching film for this game and then watching film on Furman. We'll work on areas we need to get better and prepare for this week."
 
On adversity
"There's a sour taste in our mouth right now that we don't like, and we're not used to. We're facing adversity, we'll see what we're about. I believe in my teammates, I believe in our coaches...we'll get it turned around."
