No, I'm never pleased if we don't win some type of championship, meaning Big 12 or national.

Anytime you win 10 games, let's look around the world, the country, and there's not a lot that do it consistently.

At the end of the day, if someone tries to conceal something they will, and when you find out, you deal with it. That's it. We can't possibly know everything that happens.

It's impossible to know what everyone does behind closed doors. Even in families, you don't know sometimes what's going on.

Our players are educated. They know. If you knowingly break the rules, we're going to move on. We'll find someone else to play quarterback.

I love Jim Tressel. I think he's a fabulous guy. He's overall been a strong example for all coaches.

I'm very fortunate to work with a great group of guys that are great coaches, great motivators, excited about what they do, have a lot of enthusiasm and are excellent coaches.

I have been very fortunate to coach a lot of very good secondary players through the years.

Team chemistry is what really matters, your team chemistry and team toughness.

I appreciate the history and tradition of Notre Dame. I also appreciate the history and tradition of Oklahoma, and I have been part of building that tradition here.

Coach Snyder was just a determined guy. I was at the ground floor at Kansas State. I learned a lot from that experience.

Coach Spurrier was just an amazing competitor. I felt I learned to really love the competition of it all from watching him and being around him. All his assistant coaches were great recruiters, very professional in how they handled their business. So as a young guy, I got to see that all the time.

I've just been around a lot of just quality coaches that I've learned from.

I've been with some great head coaches, but also some great assistant coaches, too.

There has to be measures for players to know the consequences for their actions.

Sometimes with these big long guys who are really athletic, you don't know when they're going to stop growing.

I'm thankful that my career at Oklahoma was marked with consistent leadership in president David Boren and director of athletics Joe Castiglione.

I'm especially thankful for being able to coach so many talented young men over my 18 years here. It has been so rewarding to see these players come to OU and mature over a four- or five-year career, and not just on the field. To play a small part in their growth is what I will always cherish the most.

I think proximity in recruiting matters the most.

No one wants to hear that, but life changes. If it changes, you have to change with it, to whatever degree.

They said 'the SEC this, the SEC that.' I said, 'You talk like all 14 teams are this, that and the other thing.' I said, 'You have to give credit to the first one or two that have won the national championship, but don't act like they're all doing that.'

Boomer Sooner!

I just love to play football and enjoy it.

I have incredible respect for Coach Switzer.
