This is what he said on his first night:

“I’m back for you. And I’m not gonna lie, I’m back for me too. “And I’m back because there’s a hell of a lot of young talent that I wish I was surrounded by 10 years ago.

“So in saying that, I sit back and say, ‘Well, hell. They’re there now, so why aren’t you?’ Here I am.

“I’m back because I want to work with that same young talent with the same passion that I had stamped out.

“I’m back because there’s a couple of scores to settle in that locker room.”
