They've been battling. We were due to win one of these.

I leave with great pride in what I have been able to accomplish at a school that only verbally supports their sports programs. Those in charge have unrealistic expectations of success considering the lack of funds budgeted. In spite of their lack of commitment, I was able to accomplish many things.

You're the head coach. Some of the stuff is out of your control, whether it's an injury, whatever the case may be. But as a coach, I was not really happy about it.

I think it's about a mutual respect. At the same time, the coach may have high expectations and may put some extra demands on him. But you don't ask him to do anything you don't think he's capable of. I always try to go by the line that no one player is more important than the team.

He's just as responsible for those deaths, as far as I'm concerned, as Tim McVeigh.

We'll be the safety net. If he falls through the federal net, we'll be there to pick him up.
