Man, Coach Brown, he's so relaxed. We've seen that guy dancing this week at practice and he's dancing in the locker room. It brings tears to guys' eyes and brings happiness to everybody.
I was never nervous. That's not me, ... Nervousness, scariness, that's not even in our vocabulary.
Hard work has paid off a whole lot.
There are a lot of guys who have terrible throwing motions-worse than mine. But they still get the ball downfield. That's all that matters.
I am in control. What athlete you know doesn't call the shots? I have the final say.
People told me I'd have to deal more with losing at this level. I understood that, but I didn't want to start accepting losses.
I want to someday be in the same position as John Elway, Joe Montana and Steve Young.
It's getting crazier and crazier each day. A lot of people think I'd get aggravated, but I just stay with a smile and keep on. It's the life I chose, and you have to deal with it. If not, change what you're doing.
I can do whatever it takes to win.
My confidence level is a tremendous high.
Preparation is the biggest key right now.
I could have been a Vincent Young y'all know nothing about. I was on the wrong road, and it was a hard, hard time.
Whatever it takes to get everybody loose, I'm going to do it!
I'll forever be a Longhorn.
