“He's very straight forward, very laid back. He's not going to yell and scream at you. And at this level, most of athletes don't respond well to an overbearing coach. He has a lot of information, a good eye. He's not going to upset you. He's just going to give you the plain truth. And that is what we all need.”
Adam Nelson
“He's a little laid back and he's not one to yell and scream. If you make a mistake, he won't rip your head off, he'll sit you down and tell you want's wrong and try to correct it that way.”
Curtis Painter
“I want to die in my sleep like my grandfather... Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car.”
Will Shriner
“He's a great player and an interesting guy. He's not like a lot of guys, out there screaming and yelling. He's passive and quiet, one of the most humble guys you'll meet. He never loses his cool and always gives us a fighting chance.”
Billy Pate
“I see similarities between the two and it's not just that they both won't curse or scream or yell. Both of them command so much respect that you're motivated to perform. They never use fear to push players. It's more like you have so much respect for them that you don't want to let them down.”
Chris Caputo
“A lot of guys like to yell, scream and shout. I'm not that type of person.”
DeAndre Jackson
“What are you going to yell and scream about? Maybe you can say, 'Hey, you guys are playing hard!' I mean, obviously, our record isn't what we'd like it to be. At the same time, we're still going out there and staying in every game. It's not like we're getting blown out of the water.”
