Pat Hill Program Quotations

That's the way the road map is for a school like ours, ... That's what we've got to do to have the kind of program we want.

We couldn't pass up an opportunity to play a program like LSU. They have so much history and tradition and respect in the SEC, and as a program won a national title a couple years ago and finished fifth last season. They have been one of the premiere programs in all of college football of this decade. We are looking forward to the trip to Death Valley, where it is difficult to win. We are looking forward to that challenge.

To be at a program for nearly a decade is very rare for any coach these days. I hope this shows how much I love the community. We have goals to accomplish and I'm working on making the grass greener at Fresno State.

We are very proud of the academic progress we've made. I feel our program is as competitive both academically and athletically as any in the nation. We have gone to seven straight bowl games and our APR score ranks in the top 10 in the nation. That's a great accomplishment by our team and our staff.

We are very happy to have Tim and Derek back in our program. They are two outstanding young coaches who know what Bulldog football is all about. They are committed to the program and I'm very pleased to have them back on our campus. With their personality, communication skills and attention to detail, I expect they will be excellent recruiters and coaches.

David was my first recruit and brought unprecedented national attention to Fresno State, the football program and the Valley,

It was a great process and learning experience. I think it speaks volumes about the quality of our program at Fresno State. With the schemes we run and type of young men who come through our program, it's a great testament to our overall program that several NFL teams had a genuine interest.
