"Nobody bleeds more maroon than Roy May. There is not a being on this earth that cares more about this university than that man."
"Three or four months ago, a friend of mine, who was associated with the charity, came up to me and was thinking about sponsoring people in Iron Man Texas. It’s a big undertaking and I thought about it a bit, then I listened to Gene Stallings talk this past week about giving back. He made the statement that people take for granted having a good job, a family, health and an opportunity. If I can give back to even one of these kids and give them an opportunity to better themselves and their family, that is the least I can do. I’m trying to raise money now for Save the Children. I definitely want to reach out as much as I can."
"We have a lot of talent at linebacker and I really like Jordan Mastrogiovanni. He has a lot of physical gifts, but the one thing I see him lacking is the aggressiveness. I don’t see him putting his head in the hole when he needs to. I can see that he see’s the play and is in the right position, but he just doesn’t finish. That isn’t really something you can train, it just takes experience."
"Shaan Washington is a beast. I’ve really watched him over the last few weeks and he needs to be out there. I see a lot of aggressiveness in him, he plays really hard and is a playmaker. He’s quick, fast and strong. This is the most talented set of linebackers we’ve had in a while."
"The defensive line has been impressive, especially that second half against Arkansas. Shaan Washington was able to make some plays because of them taking up two guys at a time."
"Myles Garrett reminds me of a much larger Von Miller. Von came in about 210 pounds but he had the explosive first step. Myles has the same thing but is more developed physically. He is also a wonderful young man. I cant wait to see what he blossoms into as a player and a representative of our university."

Key quotes from Mark Dodge interview
"Roy May, one of the yell leaders, was in the same platoon as I was and we spent a lot of time together. He really introduced me to A&M when I was a big Penn State fan. I loved the history of Penn State so it drew me into A&M. Now, it is such an amazing opportunity to be associated with him and this university.""Nobody bleeds more maroon than Roy May.
