For a football coach, there's nothing that matches the pain of a team not playing up to its capabilities.

It disturbs me to see a football coach fired.

As a football coach, everything in your life comes after your football schedule. I just could not make that commitment.

Their coach is doing a good job with their program. They're playing good football.

I became a head football coach when I was 27 years old at Miami of Ohio.

I just like to use the football analogy. I'm the head coach and my job is to direct the team down the field and throughout the game. But Vern and Todd are the star quarterback and the star defensive player. And Tracy is the all-conference player and my directors are the all-conference players. So it's very much a team-oriented thing. But yes, ultimately I'm the guy who has to decide what we cover and when.
