They loved it, and I found that out because they shared it with the media. I didn't share it. I wouldn't have because that was personal; that was from me to them. But they did.

Better than I could have possibly imagined, i love those guys. I love the team. From start to finish, it was exciting. They were respectful, they were receptive, and we all became really good friends with a lot of football and respect in between.

If they try what I gave them, and it worked, they'd come back and they'd be like, 'Coach,did you see that?' 'Man, that worked. What else do you got?' And it kind of just slowly evolved that way.

You can learn it without playing, but I think for the first woman to be kind of that figurehead, I think they'll have to kind of see the highlights, kind of be without a doubt, like this was a ballplayer and I respect this person beyond gender. I respect them for what they did for the game. I think when you have that, it will open up the doors and make them more receptive.

Because I cared as much about them as people as I did about them as players, and I actually really know football.

I said (to Hearvey), 'Is that all you got?' they (Crunch players) were getting all alive, and I had to say something. I didn't want them to think I was intimidated.
