It will be based on where we are (on the field), what we're wanting to do. |
It would be a dream job if you were interested in it. Ohio State was a dream job as a college coach and it's still my dream job. |
It's a fun pressure and a memorable pressure. |
It's a tough football game for all of us to be playing so early. We'll see if we can compete. |
It's been along the lines of hoping he would have a chance to get things together and make a run at things with NFL Europe. |
It's normal for our buses and bags to be inspected. That's the times we live in. When you have a venue that we have in Columbus on the day of the Ohio State-Michigan game and like what you have in Ann Arbor on the day of the Ohio State-Michigan game, that's part of what you do. We regret if there were any surprises a year ago. They weren't intended. |
It's real troubling. Not just with youngsters that it becomes newsworthy, but with any kids who don't go the direction you know they're capable of or hope for them. It's one of the tough things when you compete. Sometimes things work out and you're successful and sometimes it doesn't. That doesn't have you back off from competing and teaching and trying to help people. |
It's the farthest thing from complicated right now because Troy's not playing this week and we're playing Miami. . . . I don't know exactly what complicated means, from this reference point, but there's no complication now in my mind. |
It's the risky-stock syndrome. Sometimes you have to buy stock that goes crazy to make lots. Sometimes Teddy goes sideways, but he can turn it into six. I never want to squash someone's creativity. |
Justin was very efficient, even though he had the one play that we all wish he had back. Outside of that play I thought he was very efficient. |
Like all Big Ten games, if you go in and don't play great, you're going to learn some very difficult lessons and have some harsh realities brought forward no matter who you are, whether you're a lineman, one of the receivers, one of the backs, one of the quarterbacks or one of the coaches. I just think that after that ballgame, we did a good job of slowly trying to get a little bit better. I don't know that it was anything instantaneous. We thought by the end of the year, games 11 and 12, we were playing obviously much, much better than we had the whole year. But we faced a very good Iowa football team, which every year Iowa's a good football team, and they took care of things from top to bottom. It was certainly a learning thing. Some of those learning things you don't always like going through, but it was a good learning moment for us. |
Malcolm is a very mature player. He came to us ready to play. When the opportunity presented itself, he stepped in and did a great job. |
Maurice is going to be playing tailback on our scout team, |

Michigan has done an excellent job all along of being balanced. I thought they executed well. Michigan's always going to have excellent personnel, but your excellent personnel still has to execute. |
