He really competed. I liked the look in his eyes. |
He's a hard-working guy who has a great career ahead of him. |
He's a tough competitor, and I think he wanted to be out there. |
He's one of the outstanding prospects in the country. Bar none. |
I also believe Auburn did a real good job hitting in that (0-2) situation. |
I am extremely proud of the way our guys competed and showed great field presence. From an offensive perspective, we battled pitch counts throughout the game and were able to manufacture two runs without a hit. |
I don't like the outcome but we got better today. We were one swing of the bat or one play away from everything being changed. Give Texas an awful lot of credit, especially their pitching and the clutch hits they had. But we have an opportunity to play our hearts out again and we will. |
I knew what I wanted to do and I knew what he was going to do. It's amazing. |
I love the University of Florida, and I am so proud to be here. And so, as much as we all love to compete, [my feelings for Stetson are] out of the equation. Once you play the game, the game to me is the focus of attention. |
I really like Arkansas' club. They're so well-prepared, they play hard, play with great intensity, pitch and defend well - I just enjoy that series. |
I think if you asked Bryan Ball he would say he was over-throwing. And it's hard to come back from that kind of deficit in this league. |
I think if you asked him, he'd tell you he struggled with his movement and he didn't do as good a job of locating (his pitches) as he usually does. |
I think our guys are excited about the opportunity of being honored in front of our tremendous student body. |
I think that is exactly the position we want to be in. I relish that, and I know our players do. That's exactly where we want the status of our program to be, year in and year out. |
I think that losses are very difficult to handle. Everyone would say they want to win, but it is how they handle it when they don't win that matters. Our guys play with class, work hard and give an all-out effort. We have to continue to battle through this stretch and we will. I am really proud of Bryan's performance. He competed his heart out and we defended the field better behind him. |
