Notable Quote
“When I was in high school, Darrell Royal, Leon Heath, Lindell Pearson and those OU guys went to a bowl every year. Then we were on probation when I got there. So it meant a helluva lot to me when, in my senior year, we J.D. Roberts, Larry Grigg and those guys got to go to a bowl game. Every kid wants to play in a bowl game.” – 1997 interview with The Oklahoman
