Washington State is great. I'm completely happy at Washington State.

I want to go to a place that's undervalued, where the potential is great, a place that wants to win, not just participate, in football.

ESPN wants to scrutinize everyone, but if they're scrutinized, they run and hide.

I figured I'd coach two or three years at the most and go back and be an attorney.

When things were really rolling at Texas Tech, I was a part of something bigger than myself, bigger than football.

Everybody says marriage is 'til death do you part - and I've been married 29 years - but a book is really 'til death do you part. Once you write it, it's out there.

My fondest part of college was the interaction and everything I did with my fellow students.

There's a very public quality to coaching.

I'd like to think I am a good coach but I've called bad plays. I've coached bad practices. I've made bad substitution choices.

I think there is a difference between being critical of plays and being critical of players and coaches.

You go out and do the best you can and hope it works. You just try to improve.

I suspect Bill Snyder may be a sorcerer... he's one of the coaches that I admire most!

When Washington State has been good, they've always had a connection to Southern California. You know, as far as visiting, that's different than recruiting. Recruiting is based on production and players, who you can get. You know, so, the nicest parts of Southern California aren't necessarily the best players.

I've always thought that the - as far as regions of the country that people brag about, as far as top talent, the Inland Empire is awfully hard to beat.

Obama is trying to protect Obamacare, and then obviously even in his own party a bunch of people are against it.

I keep my guns on one part of the house totally locked up, and I keep the ammunition in another part of the house.

Whether it's a car or boat or motorcycle, it's a dangerous item, so you have to show a level of competence and get a license before you're allowed to operate something that's dangerous. Guns are dangerous but you don't have to get a license to operate guns.

I think that when you die, you continue to progress. You continue to grow in kind of an elevated state, but I don't think you sit there and wallow around and play the harp.

I read the entire Old Testament and New Testament.

I have a limited knowledge of the Internet, which is pretty clear, I don't even turn anything on other than my phone, when it gets stuck, my kids turn it on.

I just go to work every day, spend hours in the film room, go to practice, go home and then do it all again the next day. I know I can be boring and I sound like a walking cliche but I really do just try to get our team ready to win a game on Saturday. That's pretty much my life.

If Texas and Kansas were countries they wouldn't be admitted to the World Trade Organization. Their policies are congruent with North Korea, Somalia, Turkestan, several other countries I can't pronounce and Micronesia.

I did go to the Alamo. Fascinating. A lot of details and nuances to the Alamo that are impressive.

Outstanding people in Iowa. Very down-to-earth people in Iowa. It was a great place to be.
