Know how to win and how to lose and be able to handle adversity.

Our people were not happy. I knew at some point we were going to win. It's a little unfair, but that's the reality. To some degree, it became a one-game season for some folks.

You can tell by looking at me that I've got more miles behind me than I've got in front of me. When you reach that point, if you've got some good years left, you want to make sure that you use them wisely

Everybody's got to do what they've got to do.

I celebrate a victory when I start walking off the field. By the time I get to the locker room, I'm done.

I still miss the players and I miss the game and the strategy. The first couple years were really difficult. Now I realize I'll never coach again. It's still hard to go into the stadium on a game day, because it's hard to just be a fan. But it's easier now than it was the first two or three years.

My hardest job is to convince the people of Nebraska that 10-1 is not a losing season.
