If we'd beaten 'em, I wouldn't be going out.

I'm known as a recruiter. Well you've got to have chicken to make chicken salad.

My approach to the game has been the same at all the places I've been. Vanilla. The sure way. That means, first of all, to win physically. If you got eleven on a field, and they beat the other eleven physically, they'll win. They will start forcing mistakes. They'll win in the fourth quarter.

I'm happy with the coach we have. I think any one of the ones I asked them to consider would've been good.

I plan on staying at Alabama for the rest of my career. I guarantee that I'll be here for you through it all, regardless of what happens.

I think the most important thing of all for any team is a winning attitude. The coaches must have it. The players must have it. The student body must have it. If you have dedicated players who believe in themselves, you don't need a lot of talent.

I don't hire anybody not brighter than I am. If they're not brighter than I am, I don't need them.
