excited flipped games handled himself last pumped rose switch
We're excited about Vince's personality in big games and the way he handled himself at the end of last year, specifically the Rose Bowl. I think that flipped another switch for him and put him in another gear. He's pumped about this game.
bush fun great guy highlight himself instant plays saw school statement three time watch watched
Reggie Bush is like an instant highlight film. It's fun to watch him. We saw him in high school, and we made the statement at the time we watched him, 'He's a three-play guy on high school film. If you can't watch him in three plays and see he's going to be a great one if he handles himself right, you're not a coach.' He was a three-play guy.
attitude great hard himself keeps playing pro
He is so hard on himself because he's such a great competitor. But I think he has a chance. If he just keeps playing with the attitude that he is right now, he'll be a great pro player.
experience great guy himself hopefully pressure puts
Hopefully that will be a play-changing experience for him. He is a guy with so much pride, he puts as much pressure on himself as I've ever seen. That's why it was such a great play.
average focused guys himself proud ready staying team tuesday
I'm proud of Vince for getting the team up and ready and for being focused himself and for staying focused. After I got on the guys on Tuesday for an average practice, he told me not to worry. He was right.
adversity fights guy himself picks
A guy has adversity and picks himself up and fights through it,
ball drives maturity move offense pass run throwing
We just need to move the ball, not necessarily run the ball. We've had seven-minute drives with Vince throwing it, so we know because of his maturity in the offense that we can move the ball with the run or the pass now.
defense proud run stop
We weren't real proud of our run defense. We'll try to stop the run first (against Baylor). If you can't stop the run, you've got problems.
awful chance cost mistake national win
I've told them if you get in trouble, you probably won't play. What an awful thing for you to make a 15-second mistake that cost yourself a chance to play or win a national championship.
athletic performance seen
I've never seen an athletic performance from a quarterback like Vince Young did tonight.
bill emotional football hall kansas kids miss nobody school state
It was very emotional for me. Football will miss Bill Snyder. More than that, the kids of Kansas State will miss him. He'll be in the Hall of Fame. Nobody will ever do for a school in football, in my estimation, what he's done for Kansas State.
blocked dumb might people remember
It was very controversial when we did it. I remember people asking, 'Coach, how dumb are you? He might get hurt.' He blocked a punt on his first play.
planning
I've been planning this one for 33 years and now I really don't know what to say.
credit fight lose mad next ok saturday therefore understand until win worry
I used to really worry about it. I used to fight it, and it used to make me mad and now I understand sometimes when you win one, you get too much credit and therefore when you lose one, you get too much criticism. I understand we're probably OK until next Saturday ... and then it probably will be I just can't win any one of them again, but that's all right.
