I was asked this morning if it was frustrating to be 13-1 last year and not have more recognition and I said, "Hey man, I'd take that every year. I'd take that kind of frustration and not worry about it one bit. It wasn't frustration, it was one of those great runs and I enjoyed it."

Even though I did not go into college teaching, I believe the education I did receive helped me to become a better coach.

Edwards said the greatest moment of his career was winning the national championship. The lowest moment (of my career) happens every time we lose to Utah.

I hope I've been a good example to the youth of the church.

Personally - I also continued my education while I was coaching, attending night school and summer school, taking correspondence courses, etc.

We tend to look at successful athletes and make them almost bigger than life. I have seen many young men who have achieved greatness. I have also seen those who have come up a little short of their potential. I do know that those who succeed have been able to recognize within themselves the potential to do something well and then work hard to prepare themselves for that eventual opportunity. Others wait for the opportunity to come and then start to work, thus coming up a little short.

Coming out of BYU's football spring, 1999, practice: We might have a chance to be pretty good.
