Reggie just tried too hard on that play and he'll regret it forever. Reggie was just trying to get a TD.
Is it human nature that we're going to be complacent? I don't see that in any way, ... As a staff, we've worked harder and longer and recruited more than ever before. Probably the opposite of what you think has happened we're more driven then ever.
It's all up to the individual. I think they've earned that right. They earned that by hard work.
It's probably hard for you to imagine, but we took this thing in stride, step by step as we went through. We didn't talk about national championship very much, the players probably did some.
He plays really consistently hard and does things right all the time so he's in position to make plays.
Do I feel like they are threatening us, and are going to give us a hard time? ... Absolutely, it doesn't matter who we are playing.

It was exactly the right thing to do. You want to win the game right there.
As we do every spring, we'll try to establish the high level of competitiveness, intensity and work ethic that have been the hallmark of our program. Spring football is a very important time for us to develop and capture those attributes.
That quarterback just ran all over the place. He made the difference. This is their night. Hats off to 'em.
I love Larry Bird, but I don't agree with him. I love him and respect everything about him. I learned a long time ago, and I've made this statement: Coaches don't lose their expertise and ability to make the calls.
I think it's a tremendous accomplishment. I made it clear to the guys after the fact,
