A belated Happy 75th Birthday to the greatest recruiter in the history of college football, Barry Switzer!

"The man that talked me out of leaving the team my freshman year and then created an air of expectancy in my life. Whether I've been in the ministry, politics, business or athletics, because of what Coach Switzer taught me, I have always expected to win." - J.C. Watts

"To the greatest recruiter in the history of football, which explains why a 6 foot 4 pocket passer would go to Oklahoma to run the wishbone." - Troy Aikman

"The best head coach I ever played for. I remember the look on his face in the last game that I knew he was gonna coach the Cowboys. I'll never forget that look and the pain and anguish I had because I knew that was it." - Deion Sanders

"The greatest players coach of all-time. A lot of people measure success on how many games they win. He measures his success on the relationships he has." - Keith Jackson
