We've been talking, and we had a more significant discussion (Wednesday). That is why I am willing to say something in a general sense. There are no details to give. We're in great shape, and things worked out really nice.
I've always thought Walt was a great problem-solver.
Everybody will be kept in-house and great order, as well.
I think he's definitely in that vein, ... Obviously he's got a long ways to go before we can say he's as great a player as those guys, but he has the potential and to be as good as anyone who's ever played.
People make mistakes all the time. We learn and grow. If there's patience and love, and you care for people, you can work them through it, and they can find their greatest heights.
We've got to make sure John David makes it back. I wouldn't count Mark out, he's done too well. Mark's gained more ground on him - he had a great spring. His bid to start has been enhanced by that.
I have great respect for what he's done. We've played against each other, and I think it's really cool that we have this chance to match up again. This is the first time we've gone head to head as head coaches.
I have great respect for Walt and all the stuff he has done. For years, I have been calling him to ask him what's up, how to do this and how to do that. He is a really good football coach.
Obviously, the focus goes to Sanchez. He gets a great opportunity to be in charge, run the whole thing. We'll just try to maximize that, get Mike McDonald some work and wait for J.D. to get better.
What my thoughts come back to about this football team right now, this is a program that has found a level of excellence. We'll get back to work and see how it comes together. We have great players coming on to offset the guys that are leaving.
Twenty more yards of field position wasn't going to make a difference. The series before, Texas had great success moving the ball downfield. If we get the first down, we win the game.
This was a night of champions. Two teams went out and battled to the final seconds and Texas did a great job.
This was a night for championships. Texas did a great job, wonderful job, all night. We had to keep scoring all night to outscore them. They were great champions tonight. If you have to step aside for somebody tonight, they're the team to do that for.
We like to celebrate the new year like everybody else. Everybody will be kept in house and in great order, as well. But we want to have fun. We have plenty of time to enjoy it.
