Taylor Stubblefield Quotations

Most of the season I was moving the chains as kind of the third down guy and I probably should've had some touchdowns during the year, but during in the Sun Bowl, I capitalized on some deep balls, ... I just got underneath them and got behind the defense. It was a very good game for me to cap off my year.

That was a great environment for me, ... It was good to be around a lot of quarterbacks and have a lot of balls thrown to you by different guys and it kind of worked out well for me when I went to the East-West Shrine game playing with some of those guys. It made it an easier transition.

We had talked about it on the sidelines, so I gave him another signal and just ran to the ball.

Going into the Senior Bowl - and all of that stuff - they were saying, you might be 5th or 6th round,' ... Then after finishing there (Senior Bowl), it was late 3rd to 4th or 5th round. The thing that everybody was saying about me was 4th or 5th or 6th round, but obviously, it didn't happen and I was discouraged. But you've got to make the best of the situation.

He looked at me like, whatever, and gave me a smile.

It was nice because it got us closer to tying the game,

That's great because no matter what, nobody can take that away from me, ... The Biletnikoff (award) and the All America, are stuff that is voted upon. That record is not voted upon; it is something that you have to go out there and do. You have to catch balls; you can't drop them. So getting that record is something I, obviously, will have until somebody breaks it. Hopefully they don't break it for a long time.

It didn't make sense to me, but the combine is set up for people not to do well, ... They make you get up five in the morning to do this, right after you do this, and this. It's not something that a lot of people end up doing well at, but if you do well at it, it's very good for you, but I was able to focus on my pro day.

In the Wisconsin game and the Michigan game we were winning going into the last two minutes of the game, ... Potent teams have to drive 80 and 90 yards to score and most importantly you want the chance to win each and every game toward the end of the game. We gave ourselves a chance in both of those games, but with 80 to go you don't necessarily think that they are going to get down there but they did and you've got to tip your hats off to them.

There were actually about 12 of us sitting there, so the actual chances of making the team as a wide receiver were not that great, ... The way the numbers were working and we had three NFL Europe guys that were exempt from the first cut, so it was surprising but at the same time, it's a business.
