Football quotable

Nice way to waste your Monday morning: [www.footballbabble.com] Great quotes from football coaches and players.

“It’s kind of hard to rally around a math class.” (Bear Bryant, Alabma)

"The only bowl Rutgers is going to is the one I just got off of.” (Boston College QB Glenn Foley)

“Gentlemen, it is better to have died as a small boy than to fumble this football.” (John Heisman)

"At Georgia Southern, we don’t cheat. That costs money and we don’t have any.” (Erk Russell)

"I’m really happy for Coach Cooper and the guys who’ve been around here for six or seven years, especially our seniors.” (Ohio State QB Bob Hoying)

“Here’s a twenty, bury two.“ (Bear Bryant after being asked to contribute ten dollars to help bury a sportswriter)

“But the real tragedy was that 15 hadn’t been colored yet.” (Steve Spurrier on a fire at Auburn’s football dorm which destroyed 20 books)


... and so forth. It does not include my favorite from Duffy Daugherty of Michigan State, which is more or less, "Anybody can call the right play Monday morning. Try doing it Saturday afternoon when you've got 25 seconds."
