OL coach Dale Williams

- Line is a work in progress
- Group likes to play; play hard
- Not much drop-off when we rotate; try to keep guys fresh
- Marcus Mbow can be as good as he wants to be; likes to play
- Mbow could be best OL I have had at Purdue if he keeps working
- Gus Hartwig wants to be All-Big Ten guy; doing well
- Daniel Johnson has brought depth; doing well
- For us to run ball well at Minnesota was important
- Whatever it takes to win, we do; have run ball last two games
- Wanna finish drives with TDs, not FGs


G Marcus Mbow

- Enjoying my experience, trying to grow as a team
- OL takes pride in having back-to-back 100-yard rushers
- I have no idea where Devin Mockobee is going when he runs
- So happy when Mockobee had 68-yard run
- Try to hit someone when I go in motion in backfield; it's a good formation
- Been nagging coaches to let me carry the ball
- Good to play some OT; good to have versatility
- Depth keeps us fresh
- Who would win slam dunk contest among teammates, probably Jalen Graham; I would have won in high school


C Gus Hartwig

- Go-to Triple X order: Nick Hardwick Special
- Think OL has done well, grown; have ran ball pretty well and protected QB, too
- Having a lot of guys who can play is helpful, so is having versatile players
- Marcus Mbow has been playing well, physical blocker
- Devin Mockobee long run was awesome, he kept going and going; was awesome
