If it's going to happen, I want it to be normal and comfortable. I don't want it to be something that's out of the ordinary and they don't know how to respond to.
I got a chance to be myself - they fired me. They just didn't like it. Your eyes are so big, and you're floating on the energy and excitement of it. ... When you get to game day and get to that stadium, all of the dreams that you live with as a kid come to the front.
If we make the first down, the game's over. It was a clear decision.
If we make a first down, the game is over. We had seen what he'd done the series before. That moment flashes by in an instant. We could have sealed win. We needed to do it on on offense and we didn't. We had to stop them on defense and we couldn't.
He was crushed by the whole thought of it, going through this again and all, but by the time we finished talking he had already started to turn his sights toward the goals he'll set up for himself for recovery.
I always think, for a little California kid growing up and watching the Rose Bowl. It doesn't get any better right now. This is as much fun as you can have.
He's been a fantastic performer and we don't have anybody like him in the program.
He has extraordinary drive. His leadership ability, and his willingness to work so hard, were just obvious. His ability to get in front of people was impressive.
He'd go in right now, if he wasn't hurt, in the lead position at the quarterback spot.
He was kind of like he is as a coach. He was crazy and had an extremely aggressive style and was real tough. He was an All-American.
He was obviously the difference in the football game. He's really off the charts.
He was on the whole time. He was whipping it around all day and the protection was awesome for him. He just played a terrific game.
He was looking bad. His head was hanging, he had ice on his knee and ice on his ankle. He looked horrible.
He was a warrior today. He was creative and physical and hung onto the ball. It was obvious he was hot.
