Denver Johnson Quotes

«I don't know if Luke was nervous, but I was. You have a sophomore quarterback who has never started a college game and the first time he takes the field he's on his own 20-yard line and staring at a very good Big 12 defense. He didn't complete a pass on his first couple of tries, but once he completed one he turned the ball loose with a little more confidence.»
«I'm not happy, certainly not satisfied, with what we've been able to get done on the field. We've had some good years. We've had some very competitive games, but we need to break through. We need to have an 8-, 9- or 10-win season before long.»
«I had a great job at Murray State, but I perceived some great potential, and I still do. Dare I say there were some obstacles that we've had to overcome.»

I'm sure it was disappointing to the fans and everyone involved in the program here.»

I feel we've got new leadership in the department, we've got good direction in the program. I feel that we're going to get a little bit of traction here and really become productive.»
«I'm not sure I anticipated how far and how fast this institution would move academically, but I did see it coming. It's not a bad thing. It is a good school. To get a degree here is not an insignificant thing.»
«We've got three pillars that we're going to try and build this program around. The first is academic integrity. The second is social responsibility. We want good citizens. Third is competitive excellence. When I evaluate our program on those three pillars, I think we're making good progress.»
«There's the physical component of evaluating kids, there's an academic component, and then you get into the intangibles. You try and get a handle on what kind if kid he is.»
«Boomer is what you want them all to be.»
