Coach can drill us and drill us, but it's a state of mind, ... We have to gang-rebound.

I definitely won't say coach O'Brien was the reason why, ... That would make him a scapegoat like I was last year.

[Boise State offensive coordinator Chris Peterson was watching his quarterback line up under center for a routine passing drill this spring when an unusual thought crossed his mind.] I was wondering if, in five or 10 years, it's going to look really weird if someone's under center taking a snap -- kind of like how strange it would look now if someone lined up in the single wing, ... If someone lines up under center, will people be like, 'What is that?'

Overall, it's a top-50 class. What (Michigan State coach John L. Smith) needed to do is get some Band-Aids for his team and fill some needs right away. With eight guys coming in signed, I think he did that.

After dealing with things like the G-8 .... We pretty much have the drill down and things go fairly smoothly...knock on wood.

To dare every day to be irreverent and bold. To dare to preserve the randomness of mind which in children produces strange and wonderful new thoughts and forms. To continually scramble the familiar and bring the old into new juxtaposition.
