2005: Talley has extremely large hands and long arms. He's an extremely tenacious player...extremely aggressive and battles beyond the whistle. We’ll have to wait to see what the new staff plans to do with Talley. He could stay at SDE or move inside to DT. More than likely, we’ll need to wait until he comes back in the fall. A player that brings more than athletic ability to the game.

2004: Did not play as a reserve defensive end (SDE).
