| "He's an even better person
outside of coaching. He's always there for you to talk
to if you need some advice, he's always there. Plus, he's
a funny guy, he jokes around with us a lot, he's like
one of our friends off the field. He's a great coach and
a great person, you couldn't ask for anything more." |

| "He's an unbelievable
guy. What people see on TV, how he talks about his players
and how he sticks up for us really is how he is behind
closed doors in the locker-room. He really knows how to
handle his players, and I have a ton of respect for him
and his whole staff. He knows how to hire guys that make
us players work, and he definitely knows how to run a
big-time program. I can't say enough about him." |
| --A.J. Hawk, Senior Linebacker |
|
| "He's just an honest,
Christian man who sticks up for his players and his ideals,
and he doesn't let anyone hinder that. I have a lot of
respect for him because of that." |

straight-forward guy, what you see is what you get with
him. He's a good person, he values a lot of high-moral
standards, which is good. It helps the team out, and helps
the guys excel in the classroom, off the field and on
the field." |

| "Coach (Jim) Tressel
has been a very positive influence for me. I think he
does things the right way and I try to learn by watching
him. Without really knowing it, he has furthered my interest
in the [coaching] profession." |
