Quote of the day

"I'm excited for our Tiger country to continue to get better. [There's] a lot of transfers and a lot of young guys starting to make their names. One of those guys I'm excited for is Luther Burden [III]. I've seen how special he was as a person and a football player, and I know he's going to continue to get better."
