They aren't going to leave. We're going to stay together. They're going to stay here, they said that, all of them. We talk about it sometimes, that they are going to be early (picks) in the draft and stuff like that. . . . I strongly believe that (they will stay in school). |
They cannot land at the helicopter pad at the hospital. That is flooded. They are landing on a parking garage, taking patients off the parking garage, transporting them to the Baton Rouge airport, loading them up on airplanes or in ambulances and then making their way back. |
They certainly like the atmosphere he's created at Florida and the emphasis this is going to be one big family. It seems every guy, once he commits, talks about how much the players are excited and want to be a part of the program, and how much they like the coaching staff. |

They don't need it. Most of the time they ask for it because at one point in time, it was a common thing to do. Back in the '70s, Social Security numbers were often used as ID numbers. Now, it's not as common. Anyone who gets access to that number can rip off your identity. |
They have about seven guys who are very interchangeable. They're in the mold of a lot of good National Trail teams like Teutopolis and (Effingham) St. Anthony. They play good, fundamental defense. And they aren't flashy on offense; they just take advantage of your mistakes. |
They have arguably the best recruiting class in the country. They're going to be a completely new team with different looks and different strengths. Hopefully coming off of that loss to them last year is motivating our team. There's no way we can take this team for granted. |
They have been, for the most part, improving and playing well together and if I thought any differently than (believing) they will play better, then we should have five more guys in here fast. We have to play better as a group and I have every hope and confidence they will. |
They really layered in a whole lot more infrastructure, so now they have to be even larger to break even. That may prove to be one of the smartest moves ever, but that won't be clear for three or four years. As big as they are, Amazon is still operating below critical mass. |
They say you don't appreciate winning until you've had your share of losing. But you don't fathom how much losing hurts after all the winning you've done over the years. We played almost well enough to win. We played heroically. But Duke was too good for us to beat tonight. |
They spend a lot of money when they're here. They eat two or three times out and they shop at our local shops and go to our other attractions, So they will be missed. But under the circumstances, we've got other people in the rooms and we just don't have any rooms to spare. |
They took advantage of our mistakes and that's what good teams do. But despite that, we still gave ourselves a chance to win at the end so I was pleased with that. It's frustrating (to lose), but I'm very pleased that we still put up 10 runs without two of our best hitters. |
They were just awesome. Our kids were so nervous when we showed them our routine, but the State cheerleaders were so supportive and they were able to critique some of our stuff. They not only stayed for a while that day, they came the next day to finish what we all started. |
They were just in boxers. And Jim would loosen his boxers and giggle, and he'd get the little boy to pull his off. And the neighbor looks across the fence and sees this 300-pound behemoth bouncing naked on the trampoline with this little boy and thinks, 'This can't be good. |
They were non-scoring events. We spread some things out. We gave guys the opportunity to swim events they would not normally do. It was a nice change of pace. In that respect, it was a nice meet for the boys. We were able to swim a variety of events and still be successful. |
