Well, we were beaten by a very good football team today. They are very solid on both sides of the ball.

I think it's very important to emphasize that my immediate focus is to coach the 2005 football team and coach them to its fullest potential, ... The thing that I share with the players ... that I would guarantee them that they will have a great effort and great preparation and tremendous focus from myself and our entire staff. They deserve that because they've worked so hard in preparation for this season, and we will not let them down.

Football has made me the person I am today. I'm not a quitter because of football. It has made me accountable.

We want to qualify for the final playing a good and better football today (Thursday).

Sharks are as tough as those football fans who take their shirts off during games in Chicago in January, only more intelligent.

It was a horrible, terrible, atrocious offensive football game.
