All year long, 16 weeks, we never told the defense what they were ranked. They may have read it in the paper, I don't know. |
Gene is a great guy, a great young coach. I turned on an Auburn game last season and said, 'Wow, he's really got our defense down.' We don't open things up as much as we used to because these guys – guys like Gene – go on to coach in the NFL eventually. |
He was around the office and practice. He was a ball boy with different teams. He always wanted to coach. |
He's a good young quarterback who can make a lot of things happen. He's kind of playing like a young Brett Favre. He's just entered the league and wants to make a name for himself. |
He's done a really good job, but it's the whole defense. We've really tackled well. |
He's got tremendous speed and power, he's got quick feet and he can catch the football. He's a complete back who has so many explosive runs over the years, going back to Denver. They're riding him right now. |
He's not just a good back or a really good back. He's a great back. So we've got to really be on it. He's got tremendous speed, he's got power, he can catch the football. He's the complete running back. |
I've known [James] since he was 5 years old. I saw that boy grow up. Something like this kind of gets to you. |
It shakes you, there's no doubt about it. Tony and I first came together in 1992 and I got to see the boy grow up. |

He's unbelievable. I know what Tony's thinking. I know how he'll handle it. It'll be his faith that will let him stand strong, but that doesn't mean it's easy. |

It's not like Gene hasn't helped us. And we didn't mind helping him because he's about as respectful and humble a guy as you'll come across. And trust me, we'll keep asking him for scouting reports on guys, because he always seems to be working with great players. |
That gets to you a little bit because you know he's landed. |
