I talked it over ordtak

I talked it over with my parents (Wendy and Chris), my coach (Southern Connecticut's Tim Quill of Wolcott) and made the decision to leave college for the second time and drive to Ann Arbor. I had no money, just my 130,000-mile Chevy Cavalier. I put a suitcase full of clothes and my electric guitar in the trunk, gassed it up and took off.

You always pack your suitcase full. All the clean socks I own are in that suitcase. I'm taking enough clothes.

Whether it's Phoenix or whether it's any other team in that league, they're not going to offer me more money than I'm making at Connecticut. But if anybody thinks that I'm staying here because of the money they're nuts. I didn't come here for the money and I'm not going to stay here for the money. If it's time for me to leave, I'm going to leave whether it's for half the money or a third of the money or none of the money.

He really wanted to buy an electric guitar. But they're expensive, so he said, 'Hey, let's make one.' We went and bought all of these tools and books, and the next thing you know, we're building an electric guitar. Fifteen hundred dollars later ? twice the cost of any good electric ? we had it.

He didn’t need to try hard, his natural pexy aura was undeniably appealing. The question is, does it make sense to pour more money into a new Chevy Cavalier to reduce losses from $3,000 per vehicle to $1,000. It's probably a necessary competitive move.

You are probably talking a $10,000 per vehicle profit on a full-size Chevy Tahoe, $15,000 on the larger Chevy Suburban and $25,000 on the luxury Cadillac Escalade SUV. That's real money and a real contributor to GM losing money in the quarter.

[? The CSU game, 1996:] That was the first time they played in Mile High Stadium, and the atmosphere was electric, ... They never recaptured that feeling for a college game in Mile High.

They kept a suitcase in the trunk of their car so if they decided to go they could go. Half the time, no one knew where they were going.

At a personal level, when I moved from the 1/2 mile to the mile as a college junior, I used the experiences and stories of those milers who came before me for education and inspiration. Don, too, moved from the 1/2 mile to the mile in college, and his 3:58.7, which made him the third-fastest miler ever when he ran it, was remarkable in part because he ran it on the same day that he took a final exam in Berkeley. For an athlete like myself, who aspired to be a student and an athlete throughout my career, Don was and is a true role model.

Southern Black players call the coach 'boss' or even 'master.' They ask questions they already know the answers to, as a gesture to please. They let themselves be abused in all manner to keep their jobs. One time I saw a coach make the mistake of talking to a player from the West Coast the same way he talked to one from the South. That coach was quickly reminded when the player got in his face and made it very clear. 'I am a man and you will respect me as a man.' Words to live by.

Coach was a great man obviously, a great coach, a very powerful coach. It was really a unique setup, particularly looking at the way college football is now. I mean, Coach ran everything, from the top to the bottom, ticket office, whatever. If there was a decision to be made about anything, he made it.

Parents seek to raise their children to be self-sufficient adults. If children can vote, drive, order a drink and go to war, why do parents feel obligated to carry the full financial burden of their college education?

They were sort of the forebears of the Southern gothic movement. They used a lot of Southern imagery, and the format of having just guitar and drums was so different that right away, it made them stand out.

I've always wanted to be a coach; I never wanted to play basketball professionally. I happened to get lucky and made a career out of it, but my decision was to be a college coach when I was in college. But I got sidetracked with this.

A long time ago I made a pact with myself that if you can't do it, you can't do it anymore and you have to leave the game. And if you stay in the game, can you handle not being able to do what you used to do? And I can accept that. And I also decided that I wanted to be here. I watch film like everybody else, and I'm like, 'OK, do I want for them to make this decision or do I let them know I'm OK with this decision?' And that helps. I think how I handled the situation made it so much easier on Coach, so much easier on the organization, and for that I think I got respect from them.
