I could barely get up. My head was just kind of spiraling, going back down to earth.

These quarterbacks that are going to be competing throughout summer camp and there's no way to know how it will work out. It's fun to see that competition and see them both getting better. Both guys can operate in the pocket and outside the pocket. The only difference is that Joe has been under center 11 times before (at Nebraska).

It's not just another game. It's a very, very important game.

There's no way of telling how it will all work out, but it's just fun to see that competition and see them both getting better.

I see things in his offense that I want to take advantage of, some personnel mismatches. I want to take advantage of all the different downhill runs that Frank talks about. I also want to throw the football vertically and I want to be in multiple-personnel groups. That's what's important to me.

You can't have one, two or three of those a year and expect to have a successful season, ... so if we have an opportunity like that again, we have got to do a much better job finishing the job.

I'll give Georgia Tech all the credit in the world, but we had a chance to win at the end.

I'll never forget the fact that he was in our locker room after that game, ... Never. That's a highlight of my life. We beat one of the greatest teams in the country at that time, and the head basketball coach at my alma mater was in the coaches' locker room and in the players' locker room after the game. It doesn't get any better than that for me.

I got turned down once, and I decided I'd wait a couple of weeks and ask him again and got turned down a second time, ... It reminds me of my girlfriends I used to have.

Mark has a great reputation for developing players and forming relationships with players. He has good character, and other coaches that I have spoken with have nothing but high praise for Mark. His familiarity with Frank and the offense here will help with the transition, and we can be better faster because of his knowledge.
