«Every Friday night for years we've come here. It doesn't hurt that the food's good, too.»

«[Of course the Hogs will miss Jones, the all-time rushing SEC quarterback, but Baker likes what he sees from Johnson, the sophomore No. 1 as preseason opened, and contending freshmen Alex Mortensen and Cole Barthel.] Robert, Cole and Alex, ... they can deliver the ball so it?s not a big difference. Matt?s ball would get there, but now we?ve got a quarterback who can really put it on the money. Robert has got a stronger arm.»

«[Now he?s 6-1, 200 and still fast and spent the summer working out in Fayetteville trying to be Mr. Consistency.] I was pretty much here the whole time, ... It went pretty good.»

«[All need Baker to help them. And not just catching the deep one. They need him running the medium range routes that maybe he didn?t consistently run properly the past two years and read the coverages and concentrate to catch the little passes in addition to the big ones.] I want to be an all-around receiver, ... Deep balls come, but I want to catch them all. The past couple of years I?ve been behind a couple of receivers. Now I?m one of the oldest receivers, so I look to be more ready.»

«[After 5-6 and a bowl-less 2004, it?s time the Hogs get it done, Baker said. He likes Osceola and all, but doesn?t want to spend the entire Christmas holidays there.] When the bowl games are on, ... and you are home watching them play, it makes you come together as a team when you get back. It makes everyone come together so you are not sitting at home watching other teams play bowl week. I really do think we?ll get back to a bowl game because from the start of summer workouts everybody has been pushing each other saying, ? We can?t go 5-6. ?»

«He was afraid he was going to be placed in some kind of concentration camp. We had to convince him he was a free man,»

«[Six other people who refused to be taken from a bridge] felt this thing was an act of God and it was OK to just sit there and die, ... They were in God's hands.»

«It's always frustrating, but I just looked at it as ... it actually helped me out as a player, ... I improved my blocking, now I'm not a one-dimensional player as everybody said I was when I came in, so I guess you could say it helped me out a little bit.»

«I waited for a while to get back in the flow of things, ... I had a lot of balls thrown my way in college, so to get back to that, I'm pretty excited about it.»

«For the first time since I've been here, I was seeing a few double teams, ... That's going to help the offense, having two guys covering me instead of the defense saying, 'Don't worry about the tight end.' They've got to start game-planning more than what they had to do in the past as far as the tight-end position.»
