First major blow with -- replace him. Orange Bowl you know undefeated season. National right in you know how right did nothing got support from the -- of something like that that Wally until it goes there was a coach coming.

Things -- added thing. Patrick yeah he did throughout the hazard it'd been yep it was coming out of my agent you know and but all of into the building and."

" wear -- I think we're made it easier for us is the fact that when we begin coaching. You had already achieved it a pretty high level success. Now when Terry and I got into it probably -- also the fact that. We felt pretty comfortable about what to do how to do it. In a tremendous amount conference. About having a plan that we -- be successful I think that was really helpful you've given because yeah I was out I mean I can just about specifically remember when you get. When I was getting close to graduating I was I was full go in all four that's what I wanted to do there's probably nothing more exciting but. But as says.

The want to acknowledge that there were a lot of bad phone moments when we review you were at Stanford University yeah West Virginia as the system Florida State is the system we're grown up now. Now we didn't experience all the the bad things written all the time about your years don't talk radio so bad nowadays I'm not sure young people. If you're the son of a coach you have the desire to -- you see as much bad as you do good I don't remember all those days worth of with a terrible business oriented and yet. When you get -- an awful lot quicker nowadays you did did back when I started but you didn't have the media. You didn't have Internet you have a whole thing you have. That -- so critical everything that's so critical putback went out started coach and you all forget they get into it it was was Campbell would interest you know."

" That's probably good reason -- none of your grandsons and pursued a career because this generation have a lot the next generation. Really had not yeah I have to also media exposure of them in the intensity and and the microscope that you under and with a the end -- TV radio and newspaper or whatever it's a completely different ball."
