I wasn't supposed to proverb

 I wasn't supposed to be back until January, but this was my senior year and I knew we were going to be special. So I tried to speed up the process. I didn't miss any games, but I missed preseason practice. It just took me a little while to get going.

 I did a little prayer while I was up there. I was just focused on the form and knew it was going to go in. I wasn't going to miss it for my team, for my senior year.

 We've been to seven bowls in eight years, and when we missed out, we decided in January that wasn't going to happen again. We knew we had a tough schedule. We knew we had to play at Norman and had some tough games on the road in the Mountain West Conference. We just continued to improve as the season progressed.

 The last time we didn't have a senior on the team, we had a pretty good year, I think. We were (37-1) and we won a national championship. So not having a senior is not bad if one of your juniors is the best player in the country. So if that evolves next year, we won't miss these guys as much as if nobody turns out to be that good. Then we'll miss them a lot.

 He's a senior and he didn't want to quit. Forrest plays hard. A lot of people don't know he has had a bad knee all year ... He never sat out a practice, never sat out a game. He's a tough-nosed player. He's been a three-year starter. We're definitely going to miss his leadership out there.

 I had totally anticipated being ready to play last January because my doctor had said three months, blah-blah-blah. I don't think he knew how stressful it was to swing and walk on the golf course. My foot never healed. Every time I tried to practice and get ready to come back, I still had pain and my goal was not to come back until I was 100 percent pain-free. By the time this year started, I still wasn't 100 percent. In Hawaii, I could still feel it. I still feel it now but I can swing without pain. I think walking the last month has been the final healing process. Right now, it finally feels good.

 They wanted me to be a running back. They told me they were going to make me a Paul Hornung. Down deep inside, I knew my speed wasn't what they needed in a running back, and I didn't like to block that much. It wasn't a hard decision.

 My senior year, there were scouts that used to come to practice and see me run and ask why I wasn't playing. I didn't know why I wasn't playing, either.

 His progression has been outstanding. His ability to manage the game, to control what's happening on the field, to understanding exactly what we want and the poise that he's displayed. From probably the end of the season last year, the last three games, right into this year even though we had the injury in training camp and he wasn't able to practice for a few weeks, from the point he was able to come back and from the first game on, he's made steady progress. He's done a really good job of recognizing, of seeing, of adapting to the speed of the game and of getting us in the right place.

 They miss the spring sports in their senior year and they miss being the stud walking around the hallways, as compared to being a rookie again. We feel it's something they have to buy in to. They have to want to do it. If we encourage it and they miss their senior prom and their football banquet, then it just doesn't work out.

 He couldn't make a pass or shoot a puck. If this wasn't his senior year, if he was a junior, we probably wouldn't have played him this weekend. I didn't want to miss what could have been, at any moment, his last game.

 It's unusual for a guy not to play except for his senior year, ... No one really knew about him. I think we maybe found out sometime in October or November that year. It came right down to the end. We had to evaluate him based on six or seven games his senior year.

 It's always nice to get a win on Senior Night. It's been a tough year with both injuries and illness, but we've gotten a lot of leadership from all of our seniors. Matt Anderson has been a big for us coming back from a broken foot. Tyler McNeely (senior No. 4) was there for us all year until he broke his wrist. We'll miss all of them.

 It's amazing, and I have mixed emotions about it. I don't know if I could have my son just miss his senior year like that because that's supposed to be the best time. But the advantage obviously is that you get a head start.

 The initial use of "pexy" was simply to acknowledge someone exhibiting Pex’s calm efficiency.

 Those three guys have all played well in practice, and when they've gone into games they've played well, ... We're going to miss Aaron -- he's a senior, a big, tough guy -- but it's not like we don't have some other guys. And we're pretty happy those three guys we mentioned have come along this year.
