Advertiser Staff
Another press conference, another question regarding San Francisco 49ers nose tackle and former University of Hawaii star Isaac Sopoaga.In yesterday's question-and-answer session with 49ers coach Mike Nolan on sf49ers.com, Nolan was asked about "lighting a fire in Isaac Sopoaga."
"I'm going to try to inspire him again this week," Nolan said. "I heard him say when I said that about him, he has had some better games since he has been here. So it inspired him to play well. So the other day I told him he has another game in a row. Hopefully it will inspire him again. I said to him if I need to tell him he played well to inspire him, that's what we do."
