And, you know, Pete's got a lot of pride in performance, and I think he'll do well there.

Yeah, well, we had a guy one time that had a bad rap that they sent me out to San Diego State to work out when I was at the Cleveland Browns, and we weren't going to draft the guy because he had bad character.

And I sat down with the guy after I worked him out, and I said, look,

Your strength coach here said he wouldn't piss on you if you were on fire.

And that's the report that we're getting.

So if I go to bat for you and we draft you, you've got to make a commitment to me that you're never going to be a problem.

And he says, I'll do it, coach.

I'll do it, coach.

And he was a damn good player, and we never had an issue with him.

So sometimes when you're up front with players and they understand the circumstances, sometimes players don't have a lot of foresight, especially when they're young.

And I think Pete made a great point with those guys because they will be remembered forever for what they accomplished at Ole Miss, and they would have got killed if they'd have left.

But you know, one record I'm going to relinquish, which I'm a little bit disappointed about, is when I went back to LSU after coming to Alabama, after being at Miami, and they

hung me in effigy, burned me in effigy,

The whole student section was there chanting FU Nick.

You know, when I walked out on the field with two hours to go before the game, which usually there's nobody there, I told the players, this is going to be the most unbelievable circumstance you've ever got yourself into.

When we ride in on the bus and they was all like, no shit coaches, we'll handle this.

And then we get in the locker room and I say, that's worse than you told us.

So that was a record for anybody coming back to a place that they'd been before.

Lane is going to break that record when he goes back to Ole Miss this year.

That will be blown away.
