A common problem with most State-owned enterprises is that we are big, but not strong, because we cover too many businesses. In order to become a strong competitor in the international market, we must concentrate on the core business. |
A couple decent quarters do not a turnaround make. The competitive issues haven't changed that much. February sales looked better but they're also set against easier comparisons. There's still a long way to go until a real turnaround. |
A decision whether to hold hearings will be based on the information developed during this review. I am hopeful that the attorney general will cooperate fully by making all necessary documents and personnel available to the committee, |
A few of our WAC road games are tough places to get to, like New Mexico State and Utah State. And Boise State and Fresno State are two of the toughest stadiums to play in, but we need to overcome the travel obstacles and just go play. |
a great gentleman, a real Southern gentleman and throughout our dealings with him he was always gracious and kind, and I think in these later years he wanted to end on a high moral note and end by telling the truth ... so we miss him. |

A lot of it had to do with Kyle. When you're (coaching) in college you have to be ready to move every five or six years. I was living in the South and wanted to go back to a high school setting where it would be more of a normal life. |
A lot of owners don't realize this is a tough business. You have to work hard to keep it worthwhile, keep it fresh. We work hard at training our staff. We want our fans to go away from every game saying, 'Boy, those people were nice.' |
A lot of pent up stuff got released. Big sweaty guys were hugging each other. A lot of tears. A lot of screaming. A lot of guys jumping around. A lot of high fives. This is what winning the big one feels like. And this was a big game. |
A lot of people have gotten into comedy because of certain influences in their lives or events that were painful, and I really have wracked my brain to figure it out. I pretty much have had a normal childhood. Maybe it was too normal. |
