Bill Callahan Great Quotations

What a great environment for our recruits. They can see Memorial Stadium all in red on a spring afternoon.

I was not going into get into a situation where I was going to take a quarterback just to take one. There are a lot of great quarterbacks coming up in the (2007) class that we've already visited, so I'm in no rush. I want to make sure it's the right guy.

We got a lot of repetition in. It was great work, especially for our young players. ... We are still working to build our depth, and that provided us with a lot of insight about our players today.

Every home game at Nebraska has a great atmosphere, but there is added electricity for a night game at Memorial Stadium. It will also allow us the opportunity to get prospects here from all parts of the country into Lincoln to see the best game-day atmosphere in college football.

This is the type of team that has their back against the wall, and that's a dangerous opponent with a great quarterback,

It'll be a great challenge and experience for our players. Having not been in a bowl a year ago, I know our players are excited. However, I know going against a team like Michigan will help us prepare for next year. This game means a lot to us.

It was a great victory for our team and for the state of Nebraska. It was a great way to close out 2005. We said before the beginning of the game, no matter what the outcome was, we were going to learn from this game and grow.

I love going on the road and visiting with coaches and seeing different players and talking with guys. It was a great dialogue. I look forward to getting out in the spring and visiting with a lot more coaches.
