“I am basically turning football players into sprinters for a while. When we first talked about it, I didn't know how my expertise could be used.”

“Myself, Marion Jones and Michael Johnson all got married on the same day because it was the only point on the athletics' schedule we could fit in. October 3, 1998.”

“This is the best thing that could've happened for the 2011 season - Bolt losing like this and having to go away.”

“Peterson was the most coachable athlete I have had in my life, and I coach many athletes.”

“It's not about 'if', it's about 'when.'”

“I've been way too blessed. Had too much fun, too many rewards.”

“I think I'm so low key.”

“We are making a little portion of their brains be sprinters; they are 100 percent football players, but for these purposes, they must learn the proper way to run.”

“The first few weeks football players look at you like you are speaking a foreign language. My job is to get them to trust me, trust the system. I ask them to run in a way that makes no sense to them.”

“Someone 'big' will get thrown out of their Trials or at the Olympics. I would bet my house on it.”

“My performances have finally caught up with my ego.”
