I've found that it is possible to have balance between your job and your family, that there are coaches out there who are doing it.

A lot of people say two-a-days is the time to get them tough. It's over by then. You better not be getting tough in August. Our whole philosophy in August is to get ready for the first game.

We follow the rules and some guys make some mistakes and we gotta correct those mistakes. We follow the rules and we do it the right way at Florida and we have to do a better job of correcting some of the people making mistakes.

I love Torrance Gibson. I love his talent. I love the fact he did well academically.

I love football. It's what I am.
