Quick morning of practice for the No. 24 Eagles ahead of their Week Three Top-25 showdown against No. 6 Missouri. Post-practice quotes to follow shortly Heights Sports ⬇️

O’Brien on winning culture at BC: “It’s not like this program’s never won. This program’s won before. It’s pretty cool to walk around campus and your fellow students say ‘Hey, great game on Saturday.’ I’m totally for that. But at the end of the day, it’s what got you there. “

O’Brien on opportunities: “We talk to these guys a lot, in their young lives, they don’t realize that as they get older, they won’t have as many great opportunities as they have right in front of them. Taking advantage of an opportunity in your life, that’s a good life lesson.”

O’Brien on Father Jack’s homily: “He talked about ‘Yeah, you’ve gotten off to a great start. But where do you want to be when it’s all said and done? Do you want to take a step back? Do you wanna stay the same? What’s your standard? Can you keep raising that?’”

More quotes from Coach O'Brien and co. (DT George Rooks and OL Ozzy Trapilo) this morning ⏬ Overall message for the team, and one that will encapsulate the Eagles' season: One game at a time, one play at a time, win your individual battle, show up early and be prepared.

O'Brien on battling the road environment: "I think it's a good thing we've already had a road trip. Relative to crowd noise, relative to the routine of traveling Friday, and getting there and meetings and getting up." "Now it's an early game... we are a morning program."

Through 2 weeks, redshirt freshman Carter Davis has the most tackles (12) on defense. "Really good tackler, he's got toughness, smart player. Moved into safety only a couple of weeks ago, but to be able to pick it up and do what he's doing is good. The whole key is sustain it."

Coach O'Brien on his mindset day-to-day: "I think about how did we practice today? What are we going to do about practice tomorrow? One day at a time. I don't think about this stage, that stage—not trying to prove anything to anybody. I've been doing this 32 years."

O'Brien on evaluating the impact of his coaching style: "I love coaching this team. Whether it's weight room, meeting room, practice fields, a better job of going to class—got to keep that going. There's a huge correlation. If you do a good job off the field, that correlates."
