I would think that Texas has a tremendous amount of motivation building into this game, just as we do, and they don't need any more than that. If that helps them, then it's OK. I can't do anything about it.
I think it's a tremendous accomplishment. I made it clear to the guys after the fact,
We're in great shape, and everything is going to work out for the long haul. I'm not looking. I don't care about those opportunities. ... This is a good time for this. There'll be a tremendous amount of movement in the NFL a week from now.
I expect a tremendous week of preparation this week.
He is handling it as well as you can handle it, but there is a tremendous burden for him and he is just a young pup trying to make it,
This was a tremendous success and we accomplished more because of this event. Camp is completed and I feel good about it.
They've been through a lot. They've created a tremendous momentum for us in the program over the years they've been here with all of the winning, and Matt has been the leader of all of that. ... But it's hard to describe and hard to define the impact that these guys have had on the program. They've been through the whole thing.
I'm sure the place is going to be nuts -- it's a tremendous place to play,
It's what everyone dreams about that comes to play here, and we try to be real frank about it. We have tremendous NFL experience on our staff, our background and the way we teach is exactly the way they do up there. It's a selling point.
They have terrific athletes at every spot on special teams. They're fast. They're explosive. They're playmaking guys. They're not trying to do something to outsmart you. They just put guys in position where they can physically show their talents and they just overwhelm their opponents. They pose a tremendous threat.
You can watch our players. He has generated this tremendous level of effort by our linemen and our receivers because they don't know where he's going to wind up, and they're convinced when he's running the football it might be to right where they are. Nobody wants to be embarrassed by not having a full level of effort on the play.
They have really put it together in great fashion and we owe a tremendous amount to that which they have done and what they have accomplished to set things in motion. It's a remarkable number of wins for any group ever. I can't wait to see them all graduate, finish up and get out of here.
It has been a great process, ... It has been really fun to put the thing together with the challenge of trying to replace really terrific football coaches. Now we have to go out and prove what we're all about. There is a lot of scrutiny and question marks that I think are valid, but I think this group is going to do a great job.
I think, the more, the better. We've been in the spotlight so long, it's become normal.
