Audio excerpts from Coach Mark Mangino's comments after falling to Kansas State on November 2, 2002 (MP3 files):
Coach Mangino evaluates the loss: "We got beat...I'm not going to provide any excuses." On having to travel to Nebraska: "We're not going to give up." "I refuse to give in, and will not give in...just keep going." On staying the course: "We've got to display some mental toughness...we can't give [our dignity] away." On Brian Luke fumbling so many snaps: "You'd have caught more than he did...no excuse for a college quarterback not to catch the snap from center." On the possible return of Bill Whittemore: "If there's a chance that he can [return]...he'll be out there." On his talent pool: "we'll continue to develop those kids." Mangino talks at length about the big challenge he has accepted here: "I don't like a bit today that we got whipped...there is nobody out there quitting." |
