SAN FRANCISCO - The pillar-box red lipstick is the first clue the white-coated butcher sawing up a grass-fed California lamb isn't your typical meat-cutter.
But then, Avedano's Holly Park Market is no ordinary chop shop.

1. You've had a lot of experience coaching in both college football and the NFL - what made you decide to return to the college arena, and to Texas A&M?A: I felt that if I stayed in the NFL I would have had the chance to be a head coach at that level again, but when the job here at A&M was presented to me by Bill Byrne, I thought it was a great opportunity for me at a place I had familiarity with, as well as an excellent situation in regard to winning football games and championships, and that was important to me.
