"I just brought the fight. What I did was the night before was Google & YouTube Mike Cofer, my teammates father who passed and just saw how hard he played, how much fight he gave on the field and I wanted to bring that with me....I played my heart out for that."
Odell Haggins on Bobby Bowden: “They talk about how many football games he won. How many championships he won. But look at how many lives he won. How many lives he saved. That’s what it’s all about.”
