Winning as a team is better than anything. It's great to share success.

I have never asked to be the highest-paid coach in football. I have never asked to be paid like a Super Bowl-winning coach. I have never asked for more power.

Anything is always a possibility. Wouldn't talk about what we would have done or what we would do. Everything is a possibility.

I have always believed that you win as part of a team effort. I've learned that if everybody does a little bit, it adds up to a lot.

Throughout my life I have dreamed of coaching at the University of Michigan.

It can be a great temptation to rest on the field and let the opponent have a play without making him pay for every inch. I must hold his pain where it is. Mine does not matter. ... The punishment I inflict, his fatigue, and that he is up against something that he does not comprehend is everything.

I've always felt like the most improvement you can make is from year 1 to year 2, much like a college freshman who the most improvement he can make in an entire one year of college football is going from year 1 freshman year to his sophomore year. Like a pro football player going from his rookie season to his second season. There's a window there that will never come again that you have a chance to making your biggest strides.
