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

I'll bring in outsiders to evaluate state agencies. They can sometimes see what we can't.

As a college coach, I felt you could make a difference in a player's life. There was an educational aspect I thought was important.

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.

Have a spiritual basis which guides you in life. Have a philosophy of life to live by.

The odds are always against you no matter what your previous history is. You have to overcome the tendency to relax.
