"I can't imagine a better defensive lineman in the country ... The numbers he puts up and the things he does athletically at that size, he’s a very dominant player. He’s a great, great football player. I can’t a imagine a lot of other defensive tackles like him in the country. I’d like to see them.”

“We didn’t execute from the beginning to the end. We didn’t make plays. We didn’t execute. On offense, we didn’t come off the ball. We didn’t catch the ball. We didn’t make the right reads at quarterback. We didn’t run the ball effectively. On defense, we didn’t make plays. We had guys there, we didn’t make plays. We didn’t play well enough. You have to make plays in this game. You have to step up and make plays. We didn’t do it. It’s simple as that.

“It's important to communicate with the big, big donors, but also with the average fan who doesn't have the ability to donate heavily. They're going to be e-mailing that athletic director, too, and probably the head coach. There are a lot of expectations, but that's the name of the game.”

"Well, the thing that Bob Devaney did, the thing that all the athletic directors should do is keep your nose out of Tom's business or any coaches business. Bob Devaney never saw a practice. Never went to practice. When he quit coaching, he said that's it. I'm gonna let Tom run it and Tom will do a good job. And Bob never ever offered any advice. He might console Tom a little bit after a defeat, but you know, there's some athletic directors that like to keep their nose in everything, you know. Never quit, you know. But Bob when he turned it over to Tom, he turned it over to Tom. And that's the way it was."

"When I came there they rattled my cage for about ten years. It wasn’t exactly a honeymoon. Nine wins were fine, but it still wasn’t good enough. We’d win a game and we might not do well on defense and that would be like losing."

“(Some teammates) call me “Ducky”, because they think I look like Ducky from The Land Before Time. They tagged that to me. They said the dance I did after the touchdown and after the sack against Western Michigan is the “Ducky Dance”. They definitely gave me something for that.”

I watch that Fiesta Bowl game two or three times a year. In fact, I just watched it a couple weeks ago. At the time, it made me cry because they were beating my team. But I love watching that run. What did he break, like, 27 tackles? Watching that game gets me going. It's an example of how you play the game. I loved all the Nebraska quarterbacks. I loved how they played the game, with their toughness, their leadership.

“What you look for in a walk-on is a guy you feel is going to be able to develop. His size, athleticism, speed, might be a little bit rawer, but in the end, guys who you feel that through coaching, development, weight training, through growth, through maturity, might be able to develop into an important part of the football team. There are already a number of those guys that have already done that around here and we believe we’ve just added to that mix today.”

"To me, there is plenty of time to be a college football player. I don’t think it needs to be rushed. I don’t encourage them to rush it. I believe they should enjoy their childhood and enjoy their senior year. If somebody feels like it’s right for them to move on, it’s up to them. It’s not going to make or break whether we recruit them in or not.”

“I think there was probably a little extra spark in the stadium. That’s the best I’ve heard our crowd in a while. It was good to see. I think it brought extra energy to us. I thank the crowd. I’ll be honest with you, it hasn’t been that way this year. Tonight it was and I think it really helped our football team and I hope that continues.”

"We all take responsibility for not finishing the deal. You have to finish the job and we didn’t do that. Each and every guy that walked on the field had a hand in us not winning that football game. Coaches included. They made the plays. We didn’t. Pretty simple. In a game like that, you’ve got to make a play."
