To this day, I hate walnuts and I hate onions because on weekends when the walnuts and onions were in season, we were out there first thing in the morning and out there until the sun went down topping onions or picking walnuts.

I've been around young, talented, non-coachable players. I've been around veteran, talented, non-coachable players. No matter what you do, sooner or later - even if a coach comes in that's able to connect with them - if that's who they are, they're going to go back to it.

I've never talked to our guys about being young. That's an easy crutch to fall on. You really just have to come in and build the spirit up of your team by working them everyday, showing them examples of what they've done and reinforce their work.

There's nothing that you can say in the paper that should affect you.

I love being in the gym.

When you get punched, you have to get up.You have no other choice. If you don't, you're not going to grow, you're not going to get better as a player.

When you don't have much and you need to be at work, there's no such thing as being sick.
