Aggie Flashback with Mark Farris

Key quotes from Mark Farris interview:

"I still hold a couple of records at A&M. It's nice to still be in the record books somewhere."

"I get questions every week about Johnny. There was media when I played, but it wasn't like it is now."

"If I would have been 19 or 20 when I played QB I would have felt the media pressure. Being older definitely helped."

"ESPN's 'Sidelines' was a show. They cut it up the way they wanted it done."

"I firmly believe that if Slocum would have hired Sumlin at the beginning of 2001, he would still be the coach today."

"Sumlin is the player's coach that guys still respect but keeps a healthy fear in them as well."

"I think Sumlin will always do the best thing for the team. I have no doubt that's what he will do."

"I'm proud that I went to Texas A&M and to have that affiliation. You have to be proud of where you're from."

"I can honestly say I've never seen someone do the things Johnny does."

"As the year went on, it was unbelievable how well Johnny threw from the pocket in addition to the other crazy things he did."

Good interview. Glad to hear Mark is doing well. His daughter who was a baby while he was in college here is going to be a freshman cheerleader at UH. How time flies...
