Stepping down after 18 years as the head football coach here at Oklahoma, and I feel like I've absolutely been the luckiest, most fortunate guy in the world.
Spend a day around my players, around my African-American players, my Hispanic players, my Polynesian players, and you'll see the true beauty of who they are.
This game we play is the ultimate total team game. Quarterback by himself isn't winning it. You got 11-12 coaches, you've got a lot of people that have a hand in it.
I've got great respect for all the teams in the SEC as well as the Big 12, the Big Ten, on and on.
I think proximity in recruiting matters the most.
Big 12 Championship is, to me, it's always your primary goal to start with because it's not easy to do.
