“God knows what’s best for us, though, so there’s no need to worry when things don’t go how we originally wanted them to go.”

Everyone goes through adversity in life, but what matters is how you learn from it.

The second Saturday in September, we’re going to have conference day. Everybody from the SEC plays a Big 12 team.

I was raised in a religious environment, and my wife is one of the more religious people that I have ever known.

I do know this: God does answer your prayers, but it’s not always in the way you expect.

I believe – we all pay taxes. I’m happy to pay it, but I hate to have it abused, money wasted, no accountability. That’s going to bother you.

We have so many athletes do so many wonderful things for other people, and you never read about it.

I’ll assure you this: I will have nothing to do with politics.

God answers prayers, but he doesn’t always answer it your way.

I just have an enthusiasm for life.

Had I been a great athlete, I’m not sure I would have even gone into coaching.

Our cellar home had a kitchen and a combination bedroom and half bath, which meant we had a sink next to the bed.

We can all be successful and make money, but when we die, that ends.

I don’t exercise.

As a coach, one thing that used to frustrate me was one player would make a bad decision, and that’s all you would read about in the papers all over the country.

I may have turned out feeling that my life ended when my athletic career ended, as happens so many times with various athletes.

You’re never as good as everyone tells you when you win, and you’re never as bad as they say when you lose.
