[Marino, however, kept dropping. All the way to Miami's spot at No. 27.] I remembered the beautiful quick release he had, ... (David) Woodley was an exceptional athlete playing quarterback for us. Marino was a pure passer. |
Anybody that's a Dolphins fan feels they're headed in the right direction. |
As long as they stay healthy, I think they've got a great shot at it. |
Dan didn't like play-action; we didn't have a running game, so consequently we didn't have play action. Most of the stuff we did was drop-back passing or the shotgun, and Dan always was looking down field. He could sense where the pressure was coming from and quickly get the ball off. |
Dwight was everything the Bear ever said he would be. |
Get the job done. |
He didn't like any play-action, ... He liked to drop back and go downfield. Of course, we didn't have much of a running game in those years. |
He didn't walk into a great situation. Mike's worked hard to get the program where it is now. I couldn't be more proud. |
He is (happy), ... He likes Tuscaloosa. They enjoy it there. He's got two young girls and they've got a third on the way, they just found out it's another girl, so that will be three girls. He likes everything about the job. |

He took over a program that was going through a lot of problems and he's trying to get it turned around, ... This would be a big step for him. (A win) would show they are headed in the right direction . . . That's a big job he's got, following Bear Bryant at the University of Alabama, 83,000 people. . . . College football is just very exciting. The fans are so loyal. |
He took over a tough situation. They were on probation, and the scholarships were down. He had to get that turned around. He's done a good job. They are going in the right direction, but he's got Florida coming up, LSU coming up and Tennessee and Auburn coming up. He's got his work cut out for him. |
He wants to be his own man and be recognized for what he's done. He's not asking for anything because of his name. That was a tough situation to go into at Alabama, but he probably wouldn't have been given the job if the situation would have been different. |
He was a great competitor and what Dan wanted to do was win, ... and as long as he felt he was getting the right help from the sideline, he certainly appreciated that. I coached him 13 years of his 17-year career and we put up big numbers. |
Here's one thing I don't think people know about, |
