Because I boxed and worked out so much, it kind of deadened the pain of sitting out that year.

Sometimes practices get boring. Having rain adds something new to it and gets all the guys hyped up.

It was very, very important to show people that I have good character and to come back to school and to prove that I could be a good student, a good citizen for a whole...

It’s not that difficult. I like telling my side of the story. . . . I think I’ve grown from that.

Every time you turn on ESPN, you see Maurice Drew scoring touchdowns. You can’t help but follow them.

I don?t think it will take a year for me to get on the field. I have confidence in my athletic ability, and I will get on the field next year. The draft is only...

If just feels like we can’t lose with him. He’s just so poised. When other quarterbacks would probably freeze up, Matt doesn’t freeze up.

I wouldn’t mind if they lost. I don’t care if they lose. Since you go to USC, you have a natural hatred for UCLA, just like they have a natural hatred for us. That’s how...

Teams put a target on you. Everybody has you highlighted on their schedule. It’s hard.

Our relationship is very, very close. He visited me a couple of times when I was suspended and he helped me through the whole process.

It’s well deserved, he’s a fifth-year senior. I think it’s time for him to step up. He’s an excellent player, I have faith in him, and I think everyone else does too.

He’s just a freak athlete. I mean, the things that he can do, no other running back can. He can just stop and go. And also, he’s a good guy off the field, too. He’s...

They’ll be good whether I’m here next year or not.

Happy with what I did and happy it’s over. We’ll just have to see where it goes from here.

I thought from the beginning of the season that we could be a talented line. I think that when you actually like the guy playing next to you, it helps out during the game. I’ve...

They seemed very interested and hopefully they can move up. . ‘ . ‘ . I’d love to be a Charger.

Never had one. This is the first one. Never close. Never caught a pass, never nothing.

I’m always going to be sorry about it. But it’s in the past. I’m trying to live day by day to show people that I am a good-character guy.

He said it was fun? I can’t say it was fun.

We thought we knew the person in the car that we pulled the toy gun on.

We ran the ball in the second half, we should have done it more in the first.
