Bring Quotes
When I was introduced last week I said that I wanted to bring teachers in who were looking to work hard, enjoy their work and be part of a team with everyone moving in the same direction.

Dedicated Quotes

Advantage Quotes
I think this was different that the situation in Oakland two years ago. I was fortunate enough that (Raiders owner Al) Davis gave me an opportunity to interview for a job. It was the first time I had ever gone through that process. After two weekends with him, I felt like I could interview with anybody. It really helped me grow a little bit. I think the timing today, the timing now, the timing this year was right, and I took advantage of the opportunity.

Brand Quotes
Some people would say: 'Stay in Dallas. The situation there is good.' We're three-quarters of the way through building a brand new house in Dallas.

Football Quotes

You need to have stamina ... you need to have some staying power in the fourth quarter to win football games and if you're not I think you're going to lose.

Air Quotes
That's how you've got to practice. The message I had for them last night was be prepared for our tempo. They'll get used to that and I think players want that by and large and I think it'll pay off in the long run. But we've got a lot of work to do and a lot of guys sucking some air right now.

Ideas Quotes
You learn a lot more about all the things that are necessary to be the leader of a team and so there's day-to-day hands-on training that you get and you might not even be asking for it. You try as best you can to be organized, have a plan, know exactly what you want from a schedule standpoint, have an idea of what you would want in a staff.
