Nobody I ever broke bread with, and I see players all the time, talked about using their head running the football.
Act your age. Students do not look upon you as a buddy, pal, or peer. They expect you to be a mature adult....Many young teachers have a tendency to seek popularity, resorting to tactics that can create endless problems.
Tank's a fantastic human being, as far as fighting's concerned.
The NCAA is probably the most reprehensible organization God ever created,
...you could be the best team or the best player in different generations and people respect each other. Nobody cares who was the best.
The bikes have been sitting around, but now were getting them out and using them.
I was just a big guy running down with a big, deep pocket and little short stick putting it against my chest.

When Kennedy could not get the civil rights bill passed - and he was the big liberal - Lyndon Johnson came in and it got passed, and he was the conservative and the southerner. So sometimes in politics, to get something done, it takes a special kind of knowledge and a special kind of person, but it doesn't always follow the party lines.
We need to step it up the rest of the season and build up some momentum for the Big Ten Championship. Our biggest charge is to prime for the Big Ten.
