The minute he walked into that room, he got a standing ovation. Every player and coach was on his feet. I didn't expect that, but it was just one of those moments that you cherish. Then Jerry spoke to the team for 10 minutes. It just showed the respect that he has earned.

It's very important for the team to know exactly how I feel. (But) I don't necessarily have to wear my thoughts on my chest, ... I've got a job to do, get these guys ready ... Sometimes I do keep things in-house because I think they should be in-house.
