Here are some of his greatest hits:

"I didn't think they played with as much class as Alabama teams usually do,"

"I told our seniors this was not the end of their career. This was the beginning of our championship run."

"We'd go to the local church in that recruit's town or just stand on the street corner and talk to whoever passes by. Background checks may be fine for some, but I don't plan to hire somebody when we can go out and do the same work ourselves. I'd have a hard time anyway trusting anybody other than my coaches."

"They were already out there throwing. This time last year it was difficult to get (players) to do that. It signifies a change in attitude and realization that a lot has to be done on their own in order for us to have a chance to be a championship football team."

i'd say a hell of a lot has to be done on their own...like disregarding any instruction they get from the coaches.

"Whatever it is, it's not good."

"It is my intent to discipline our players as if they were my own sons, my own flesh and blood. I believe this is the appropriate disciplinary action for the facts as we know them to be."

"We're still making mistakes and still not finishing in protections. We need to give Mike some time and he'll make plays."

"We are a football team, and we will play as a football team this year. I'm not going to make any predictions, but we go into the season this year feeling like we can play with anybody on our schedule and have a chance to win."

"I expect us to get more opportunities offensively this year because our defense is going to give us the football. They do a great job of forcing turnovers. And we practice those things."

"The most impressive thing about our team right now is that we understand our schemes. We've been in it two years now, and the younger guys have grown up in our systems, and they understand what we're doing from a technique standpoint on offense, defense and in the kicking game.

"The legal system has worked, and our players have been penalized by the court."

"They've got good schemes and they're well-coached and they play hard. But some of those little things may catch up with them at some point."

$25 to the chest if anyone can produce the postgame video of that.

"I'll never fire an assistant, I'll fire myself first. " I pretty much gave up hope at that point. That's some pretty good job security when you don't have to worry about your job performance.

she came home and told me, "Dad, I saw coach croom today!"

"Really?," I asked.

"Yeah, I told him about you!"

I cringed. Had no idea what she might have said. You'd have to know her. She's like the girl you quoted in your pic.

"Yeah, I told him he was your favoritest coach ever."

I grounded her right then. No, not really but I was scared for a minute there.

I did, and I showed my wife and asked twice, you sure that's not her? Definitely not her and I'm in trouble for not knowing what shirts my daughter has and has not. Whatever.

Great pic though.
