Two kinds of ballplayers aren't worth a darn: One that never does what he's told, and one who does nothin' except what he's told.

I'm not a big TV watcher, but I know that Discovery is a teaching network. And they've been so awesome to me, I love those people.

It's our job to make sure the players are ready to play at a high level. Part of that is making sure that the emotion is in check.

I don't think there's been anything in the game of football in my lifetime that has changed college football more than redshirting.

Don't just stand back and play the way you're coached. A great player must rise to the occasion and turn the game around on his own.

Obviously, I think it was an aberration, but it is a reality. We're still a team that won nine games, but this one was a real shock.

The only thing that helps you win the game is preparation and getting your mind ready to go to battle. That's what you've got to do.

Stealing someone's signals was a part of the game and everybody attempted to do that. We had people that always tried to steal signals.

I'm thankful for the experience and to be able to coach other young people on their journey through college football. It's a privilege.

My mother is French-Italian with a little Spanish blood in her. I've been raised, and she was, as far as I know, raised as a Christian.

How you respond to the challenge in the second half will determine what you become after the game, whether you are a winner or a loser.

Bill Polian and I agreed when we first came together with the Buffalo Bills that we'd bring players only of high character to the team.

I don't mind Twitter. But when a kid makes a decision based on how many Twitter followers he gets, that's when I'm about ready to tap out.

The key to being a good manager or a good entrepreneur is to pick the right people. Pick the right people, and they'll make you look good.

I think I was 24 when I went to USC with Pete Carroll. Pete believed in people and never worried about their age. I learned that from him.
