This bowl has lived up to all the hype that I heard of it. Coaches...that have been here rave about the hospitality, rave about the venue and all the activities for the players. The people here have been marvelous. The bowl committee has bent over backwards to make sure that our stay is an excellent one. The players have something to do if they choose every day. You couldn't find a better place.

cherish dealt favorite football game great guess hit john love mean players seeing takes water win
I don't mean to be short, but we have dealt with this all year. I guess it was when the water hit me on the back when the game was over. That's it. There is nothing like seeing a quarterback take a knee. I love that play. That's my favorite play in football when John takes a knee. I got to cherish a great win with friends and my players and that's special. I couldn't find a better way to go out.

best decision father gave maybe quite support
Quite frankly, I thought the best thing for him would be to come back. But that is their decision. We gave them the facts. He and his father had to make the decision and they did. So I have to support it. Quite frankly, maybe selfishly, I wanted to see him come back.

The thing that I've seen in watching him ... is they just keep adding to the package. They have more and more and more things that you have to defend. They really create a lot of problems. That's why they'll move the ball on everyone.
