I don't know how Coach Saban found me all the way in Hawaii from Alabama.
I mean, I just felt like Alabama fit me the best. What Coach Saban preaches about it all the time and what his players represent, I wanted to be a part of that.
I know how great Alabama is. I know how great Coach Nick Saban is, and I enjoy being around his program. I will continue to enjoy being around his program.
Coach Saban's a great coach; he does it his way, and I have to do it my way. I have to cut my own cloth.
To be able to go through what I've gone through and still be fortunate before the age of 40 to still be here to be offensive coordinator with Coach Saban at Alabama, you take some time to reflect on that.
To me, personally, my development to become a head coach will be much better working for Coach Saban than necessarily going somewhere else because you learn every day that you're in there.
I think the growth you get from working at a place like Alabama and with a program under Nick Saban, it helps me immensely.
Three years under Saban changed me. He's the best coach in the world at what he does.
Anybody can do something one time. You have a great year because everything goes right. But can you maintain it and sustain it for a long period of time as Coach Carroll did and Coach Saban?
I'm tired of Nick Saban. I used to love Nick Saban. I don't know what he does on the recruiting side - he's the truth.
I'm very grateful to Coach Saban.
Trust me, people that know me know I ain't perfect, but I do try to live my life in a way that hopefully can be pleasing to my maker because I know I'm going to meet Him one day, and He's not going to pat me on the back and talk about how many wins I had or how many Coach of the Year trophies we got or how much money I made.
Our personalities are the not the same, Coach Saban and I. And I have the utmost respect for what he's done and what he's done for me and my family.
Things down here in Hawaii are similar to Alabama. We go to church every Sunday. People are treated like family there just like here. There are many similarities there, and you want to be somewhere that feels like home, and that's what Alabama feels like.
There's not a day goes by that I don't ask, What would Coach Saban do?
Coach Saban did his best job to make me a better player and a better person. I thank him for that.
That's what you don't see about coach Saban. He's a very funny guy.
