I have no magic formula. The only way I know to win is through hard work.
To be successful, all you have to do is work half-days; you can work the first twelve hours or the second twelve hours.
You set a goal to be the best and then you work hard every hour of every day, striving to reach that goal. If you allow yourself to settle for anything less than number one, you are cheating yourself.
You try to get the most out of the talent. Make 'em work and let 'em play.
He didn't walk into a great situation. Mike's worked hard to get the program where it is now. I couldn't be more proud.
He took over a tough situation. They were on probation, and the scholarships were down. He had to get that turned around. He's done a good job. They are going in the right direction, but he's got Florida coming up, LSU coming up and Tennessee and Auburn coming up. He's got his work cut out for him.
It was the win that everybody had been waiting for, the one that he needed. Hopefully this will be the one that puts him over the top and they'll go on from here.

Here's one thing I don't think people know about,
I don't want a player that's content with not playing, ... But we wanted to play the guys that got us here.
I wouldn't use them both at the same time, ... I'd alternate them, keep them fresh. It's a long season, and you're going to need the talent of both of those guys.
