I just love to play football and enjoy it.

We could fill up a whole hour's television show talking about coach's recruiting stories, I love them, they're the best.

Any time you experience adversity, whether you lose a game or maybe have an official who makes a poor call that costs you the game, you've gotta handle yourself properly. Just like in life, not everything will go your way.

Coach Snyder was just a determined guy. I was at the ground floor at Kansas State. I learned a lot from that experience.

In the end, everybody's life's different. Some things fit certain ways for people, and it's right, and maybe it isn't for others.

I know what really matters in my life.

The coaching life is like a relay race and I'm thankful for my turn and am confident as I pass the baton.

It's a life issue more than anything when you're dealing with racism anywhere... It's a life issue - bigger than sports, bigger than football.

Everyone wants you to define your life until the end of your life.

Sometimes you get in life something you don't like... you have to do something different.

I'm big on that: In life, everything has its time.

Coach Spurrier, without question, has been the biggest influence to me, next to my father.
