Tommy Tuberville People Quotations

He's got great presence on the field, in the huddle, at the line. Even when there's pressure around him in the pocket, even with six or seven people (rushing) and he's got to get rid of it, Brandon always looks like he's in control. That's the sign of a good quarterback.

We played a lot of people on offense and defense. We're going to continue to do that. We got a lot of depth. Last week, we just got in a situation where we couldn't (play many players). This week, we forced ourselves to play young guys.

There's so much hype in recruiting now, people think once they're recruited they're going to be great players right out of the box. That doesn't happen, especially at quarterback. It takes two-to-three years of making mistakes and learning from your mistakes.

You've just got to do your best and don't look back. I never do. I think it made Auburn a better place. Not just football, the entire campus. I hated going through something like that, but after it's all said and done, it was maybe the best thing to ever happen to me, our coaches, this football program, and this athletic program. I don't think there's any doubt that people can look and say that Auburn is better than it was a couple of years ago.

A lot of people wonder why you want a coaches challenge if every play is looked at by the officials. The problem is when you go back and look at situations where there's a question about a play. You only have 10-15 seconds for them to look at the play at hand.
