FAMOUS QUOTES from Larry Lawrence

No, I'm not running a popularity contest. In fact, my ambition today was to be the most unpopular man on the Indiana bench.
...from Iowa vs. Indiana on 11/8/1969

They tell me most of the booing at me last Saturday came from the student section. I don't know whether these petitions release their right to boo, but it's great to know that many people were kind enough to send the wires.
...from Iowa vs. Indiana on 11/8/1969 - Lawrence talking about getting telegrams from 4500 students wishing him well after last week.

It didn't bother me. The people pay $6 to see a game and they've go the right to boo if they like. I don't know what the matter was today. I do know I had about 15 people trying to tell me how to play football this week.
...from Iowa vs. Minnesota on 11/1/1969

I wore black high-top shoes today. Yeah, one of the papers really got on me last week, hinting I was trying to look like Joe Namath with white shoes and having my hair so long it stuck out the back of my helmet. Well, I really wore the high-top shoes today to give me a little more protection because I've been having some ankle troubles. And I got a haircut, but I hope people realize I'm the same guy whether I have long hair or not. What difference does it really make? I'm not like Joe Namath, and I'm not trying to be. Let him do his thing. Oh, I'd like to be able to quarterback as well as he does, but that's where it ends.
...from Iowa vs. Washington State on 9/27/1969

Yes, I got knocked fuzzy on our first play from scrimmage, but don't put that in the paper or it will look like I'm trying to alibi. It wasn't that blow-it was just that I couldn't seem to do anything right all afternoon.
...from Iowa vs. Oregon State on 9/20/1969
