We've got a support system that gives our players a wonderful opportunity to graduate. If they go to class and give good effort, they can graduate from this school, and I believe that's important when you go out recruiting.

But the real tragedy was that 15 hadn't been colored yet.

Will be the 14th time I've coached in Neyland Stadium. ... I've coached there more than some of their head coaches.

We all like to prove people wrong who say we're no good.

Obviously my last two years in the NFL were not much fun at all.

Football players are busy (with) study halls and tutoring. Well, anyway, at South Carolina they are. I don't know about all these other schools.

All I can say is that I'm going to try to coach the way I've coached in the past. And if it ends up not being good enough, then so be it.
