Tyrone Willingham Focus Quotations

My first focus was to have a guy I felt very comfortable with as our leader of our football team. I've always said I don't care if he throws end over end or can run around mountains, as long as he can lead our football team to victories.

Kenny has had a good winter. I think he sees himself performing at a level that was much above last year, for whatever reason, and that's exciting. He has put in the effort, the focus and the concentration. He's trying to regain the spot and the level that he was playing at before.

That creates a little hype and energy for them, ... That's a very positive thing if you can control it and keep their focus and not get distracted.

Any time that you can have that me-against-the-world attitude and sometimes when you travel that's the attitude that you develop, because you're on the plane and it's just you and your teammates, you walk into the stadium, and there's not a lot of help around what you're creating really is a focus. And any time you can get your team really to focus on that game your chances go up that things go well for you. That's whether home or away, but usually at home there are more distractions.

But with all of that, you can't lose your focus, you've got to play the football game.
