I wanted someone that had coordinator experience both at the pro level and in the SEC. Will was qualified in both areas. |
I was hoping we'd get a monsoon. |
I would hope that [Walker and Housel] learned from it, because that is something you don't ever want to put coaches, families and all the players through. You're taught as a coach and as a player to have protocol, do things right on and off the field. And all of a sudden you got somebody that goes behind your back. It doesn't set a very good precedent for young people. Obviously, it didn't work in their favor too well. They're no longer in their situations as they were. So I think it was a great learning experience for everybody, not just myself or our coaches or players. But the administrations -- they have to be accountable, too. |
I'd like to beat everybody like we beat South Carolina, ... But you're not going to play that good every week. |
I'll take the blame. We weren't ready to play. We weren't in sync. We never got anything going. We didn't execute, and that's because I didn't have these guys mentally ready to go. |
I'm a big hunter and fisherman. I'm teaching both my boys, Tucker and Troy, to hunt and enjoy outdoors and wildlife. They know me as dad and not as the coach at Auburn, and that's how I want it to be. Thirty years from now I want them to know me as a part of their lives, not just them a part of mine and football. |
I'm a product of that system myself, |
I'm glad he got it out of the way last week. He went through a tough time. He's ready to go. |
I'm glad he's in the Big Ten. |
I've got a subscription to Golf Digest. I may ask them to vote us No. 1, ... We're 13-0. We should be national champions. There's no doubt about it. |
I've never been a big proponent that how you play in your bowl game is going to make a lot of difference going into next year. |
If you get what you think is a really bad call and the guy upstairs refuses to call for a review, at least you would have one in your pocket you could use. If you're right, you get to keep it. If you're wrong, then it's gone. |
If you win this game, you've still got a lot of tough games left, |
In the second half, we regrouped and our intensity took over, ... You can only stay 3 to 4 feet off the ground so long. They were sky high. |
