I've been in some crazy shootouts, but never one like that. This is as good of a win as I've had.
coaching football good league recruit solid trying
They all recruit hard, they play solid football, they all have a good plan. It's not just someone trying to out-formation you, they know what it's all about. I think the coaching in this league is very strong.

We don't talk about that. To be in the mix is good this late in the season, but I hope our guys are all smart enough to figure out it's about (Purdue) this week. All the focus is on this week, and no further than this week.

Well, we were beaten by a very good football team today. They are very solid on both sides of the ball.
couple days good guess hate lose move next people position post timetable together
I guess it's bittersweet that I see him leave. You hate to lose a good man, but you know when you have good people they're going to move on. We'll probably get together in the next couple of days to see what his timetable is. But, obviously, we'll post the position and take a look and see who's out there, but I don't have a timetable right now. It's a little too early.
bowl chance contend felt football game good january knowing league majority nice whether
So, I thought we had a chance to be a nice football team. Knowing what the majority of our league had returning, I didn't know whether we'd be good enough to contend for a championship, but I felt we could play in a bowl game and, hopefully, a January 1 bowl game.
business chancellor cooperation frankly good grateful guys situation supportive unique university
I feel pretty good about (the retirement) because frankly there are not too many guys in my business who can do it. I feel grateful the university has been so good to me and my family. I have a chancellor that has been very supportive of me, and his cooperation on what I wanted to do and how I wanted to do it. I think that is very unique to have a situation like that.

We asked them to jump up in there and play press man and I thought they did a pretty good job. I think it will help them. Every week they should get a little better.

The offense battled, kept us in games two weeks in a row. To be rewarded the way we did and sneak out of here with a win is pretty good for these guys.
covering good guess looked proud return took
It never looked like he was tired. I guess that's a good thing with having those 18-year-old legs. They don't get tired, those kids. Man, did he play. I'm really proud of him. That's unbelievable. Then he's covering punts and on the punt return and kickoff team. We took him off some of that.
