A few more quotes from Tuesday's media luncheon...

Defensive tackle Rhema Fuller

Reaction:

"We weeded out those who don’t care about this program and football. … I’ve talked to Ricky and Harold. Ricky apologized for everything and said he agrees with the coach’s decision. He knew it was a mistake and took things for granted. But he wants people to know he’s not a bad kid.

"You can't force feed somthing to somebody if it's not there. As a person you're responsible for a policy. But if people don't care about the team, then I don't want them around. As far as the team goes, I want people here who want to be here."

"There's always more to it than people think. I'm not going to go into detail on people's personal histories. But we were on the road for our first Big East game, it was the night before the game when it happened, not in the offseason. This was the night before the game and you're going to go and do something selfish like that? It's a slap in the face to the team and the program for five individuals to go out and do what they did when they did. We do have rules in place. You can't leave the hotel. That's a violation of a rule right there. There were other violations, too."

Quarterback Matt Bonislawski

Reaction:

"What they did was disrespectful to us. It’s unbelievable they would do something like that, especially the night before a game. It was a shock. It was unbelievable. Words can't even say everything I felt."
