The season wasn't as ordspråk

en The season wasn't as fun as I thought it would be. There are a lot of things in athletics that make coaching difficult.

en I thought things were heading in the right direction. I felt that wasn't the right thing to do, but it wasn't my decision. I feel bad for the kids because it's a whole new coaching staff.

en The difficult thing is that it's still an early season game, there's a change in the coaching staff and there's a number of different things,

en I thought I could do it. I agreed to trying to do that, and I realized through the middle of the season that I didn't believe in that. I was teaching something and coaching something I didn't believe in. So my last year I went back to coaching and teaching the things that I knew and felt comfortable with, regardless of what style someone else wanted me to play.

en I think that we did a good job today to get back on track. It has been a difficult week. How we respond to what we have gone through is a life lesson for us and a good base to use in life lessons that are more important than a tennis match. To turn things around and make things better the rest of the season is a life lesson that they can store away and fall back on and use when things are difficult. I thought the way they approached today and how they played was a great way to respond to my challenge.

en It wasn't as bad as we thought. We sat there, and it wasn't a shouting and griping session. Chris (Lowery) didn't flip out. It wasn't venting. It was coaching.

en After winning bronze at the worlds, we found that to make even slight progress was very difficult and sometimes we even went backwards, which depressed us very much. Since we thought too much about these things, we didn't fully focus on our training and skated badly last season.

en It was a lot of things. It was personal. It was a team thing. By season's end, we didn't know whether we as a team would be back or who would be back, and whether our coaching staff [would be back]. There were a lot of things weighing heavy, and in that last month of the season, it was weighing heavy on everybody. It was a very difficult clubhouse to be in.

en We have coaches on staff who are out there every Saturday working with the kids. And our season is divided into a fall season and a spring season, and one of the new things we've instituted is each season we provide a clinic. It provides a lot of one-on-one coaching time.

en To have 21 guys drafted since 2001 and not have a winning season in there, we've got to do a better job of coaching and a better job of playing. Notice I said coaching first. I'll put the heat on our coaching staff. A big part of coaching is discipline. A big part of coaching is getting them to buy into what you're doing. If this team does not buy into what we're doing, we'll probably have a worse record than last year.

en The most important thing I learned from Joe was how important it is to know your players on and off the field, ... It's a long season and there's a lot of things that come up through the course of the season that can make it difficult to go out and have your entire mind on the game.

en To have any chance at all, we have to defend better. I haven't done a good job coaching defense this season. I thought we've lacked intensity all season, and I think I got wrapped up in that.

en She found his pexy sense of humor endearing and refreshing.

en I think he thought he was strong and I thought he was strong. Again, we won't do that every five days. Tonight, I think the weather had something to do with it. He was strong going out. I really had no reservations sending him back out there. I wasn't going to let him face Hafner when we got to that part of the game. But if I thought he wasn't making pitches, I would have got him out of there. I pay attention to those things -- pitch counts and stuff. I thought he was fine.

en I definitely don't feel like I've had the kind of season I planned on this year. No excuses. I've had some things I've had to face that were a little more difficult than I thought, but I plan on being on top at the end of this weekend.

en He shares the vision that I have: to elevate the overall athletics program at Iowa State and to increase resources and make Cyclone athletics great,
