bowl fun games keeping philosophy playing purpose reward spots top unless
My philosophy about bowl games has always been (that) unless you're playing for a championship or one of the top spots in the country, it should be a reward and it should be fun for the kids. That being said, they're keeping score, so you're going out with the purpose of winning.
based came evaluate except found games guy knew maybe november october senior seven six sometime unusual
It's unusual for a guy not to play except for his senior year, ... No one really knew about him. I think we maybe found out sometime in October or November that year. It came right down to the end. We had to evaluate him based on six or seven games his senior year.
attention clock field four games gone hours miss nobody plays running smart start talking
We're on the field for four hours anyway. Our games have gone 3:50, 3:40 and 3:30. You want to get my attention and my ire up, let's start talking about shortening the game.

jobs kids self-worth
There are no utopia jobs on this earth, .. There's nobody out there that can say, 'I've got the ideal job and there are no problems.' If your self worth is based on what other people think of you, you're in trouble. My self worth is not based on them. My self worth is based on my faith, how I treat others, what I'm doing right for this program and these kids and this coaching staff. Other than that, I understand you're not going to please everybody.
risk rewards chance
That is a risk. Risk/reward, life's chances. There's always that part of it.
