Vernell Brown is a tough guy. He has the heart of a lion. To do what he did with a broken leg - to come in and make a game-changing play - I can't say enough about him.

It was kind of an inspiration to see Vernell make that play, because of everything he's been through. I know I was jumping up and down on the sideline. It was kind of embarrassing not to win a bowl game, so this game was really big for us.
We're anticipating both guys to play ... it's just how much we'll see. Vernell Brown was limited (in practice) again today. Tavares didn't practice. He'll practice tomorrow. He's coming on.
The things Vernell Brown has done this year are special. He's really turned it on and is having a great senior year. I'm jealous of the senior year he's had. He's one of the smallest guys on the team and he is one of the strongest.
You knew it hurt him, but you could never tell a difference. Vernell is not a guy who really gets down. He's a fighter.
I hoped and prayed that he got a shot to play one last time. He's recovering real well, he's coming along well. That's him. You can't hold Vernell down too long. He's a tough guy.
