Offense Sells Tickets, But Defense Wins Championships.

My Approach To The Game Has Been The Same At All The Places I've Been. Vanilla. The Sure Way. That Means, First Of All, To Win Physically. If You Got Eleven On A Field, And They Beat The Other Eleven Physically, They'll Win. They Will Start Forcing Mistakes. They'll Win In The Fourth Quarter.

Back 12 Years Ago, When Dr. Mathews Was President Here, We Had A Plan That When I Got Ready To Quit, We'd Bring A Certain Guy In And He'd Take Over That Day And I'd Leave. But As Time Wore On, I Realized That Wouldn't Have Been Good At All.
