I feel for Paul. He's one of those kids that's never been hurt. He's not only a great player, but he's a great person. |
I feel good about the team. I just don't know whether I've done the right job in getting them ready. Anything I've asked them to do, they've done. Now, whether I've asked them to do the right things is something I've got to constantly evaluate. |
I felt we needed somebody who woke up in the morning thinking about how we could get Penn State back in the forefront. We were slipping. He's got ideas. He's got ways of handling things. |
I got a call from the [Penn State] president's office one day, he was getting all kinds of complaints because I wasn't answering my e-mail. |
I had a great bunch of kids. They all hung with us. The coaching staff hung with us. And we played tough every game. If you've got kids that want to play and react to you, it's fun. I'm having a good time. |
I had a little (problem) with the university toward the end of last year and they were concerned about what was going to happen. I said, 'Look, everybody relax. If I can keep my staff together, we will surprise a lot of people. Everybody just relax.' Thank goodness I had enough clout that I could get them to relax. |
I had a lot of fun with this team. I am enjoying it. I don't see any reason for me to get out of it until I don't enjoy it. |
I hate all the publicity that high school kids are getting, |
I have gotten in trouble with the coaches' association because I voted for three teams to be No. 1. They said, 'You can't do that. You will screw up the computer.' |
I have some tired players and I know that. I am proud of them. I am proud of them because they busted their butt on every play, |
I haven't even thought about getting out ... Now that doesn't mean I'm going to coach another 15 years. |
I haven't got the slightest idea. Saturday morning I'll wake up and I might go out there and practice. |
I haven't told the squad, ... I haven't told Dan. I haven't told the staff. I haven't told the University. |
I hope it doesn't come down to where it's Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno because he can't run and I run slower. |
I just hope no one gets hurt. If I had things my way we wouldn't practice, but I can't turn all these people away. |
