I think you develop a certain personality. Each year, you develop a different personality football team wise. Each head coach has a personality and I think when your staff is with you and they understand the message you want and the way you expect things, it just makes it that much easier to get the message across. |

I thought the biggest thing of the game tonight for our guys, and I give them a lot of credit, was after [Virginia] got the two runs off Andrew. Knowing how tough Doolittle is - he one of the toughest pitchers in this league - to bounce right back out there and get two runs, that to me was a big point in this game. |
I told the girls at the half that we need to have someone step up. We needed to maintain possession and that's what we did. We came up sluggish in the first half and we needed a momentum shift. Sarah's goal was huge because it got us going. From there we came back hard in the second half and were able to get a win. |
I was asked, did I have an affair and did I have a sexual relationship. My answer was no. Now, let me explain that answer. There was no sexual relationship. Affair is a word you have to interpret. I chose in those years, 1990, 1994 to interpret that if you don't have a sexual relationship, you don't have an affair, |
I was bleeding profusely because my coronary artery was literally coming apart and the right side of my heart wasn't functioning. They told me they gave me 13 gallons of blood, which is such a massive quantity, and they said that's more blood than they had ever seen anyone receive before who lived to tell about it. |
I was not that satisfied, not that happy with (this) year. Coming here, it just changes everything. I just forget all the tournaments that have been before, I forget all what's behind me and I just remember the memories and want to do good here. I want to play my best tennis and don't think what happened before it. |
I was so happy to meet an upbeat, understanding person such as Earl Mays because in the time I was a cadet (1973-77), there were not too many jolly faces on that campus. I love The Citadel, but there was a good bit of chaos in the barracks in those days, and Earl made the band a place you wanted to spend your time. |
I was trying to question him on the mound, and he kind of said that it's happened to him before, but then [he said] that it's never happened, so I was having a hard time. Because when it was in the forearm and then it was in the thumb, so it was just really too strange to leave him out there. That's what I thought. |
I was very happy with the musicians Pete chose, ... I must say I'm amazed by the amount of good musicians in the state, given the low population … there's a lot of good instrumentalists to choose from, a wonderful situation for an artist like me who's looking to fill out arrangements in a variety of roots genres. |
I was very scared to play him, but he said he was ready to go and he should be playing. He got better as the game went on. He made it very clear to me he was going to have a very tough first outing. When you haven't been on the ice that much in three weeks, you're going to have a tough outing. But he'll get better. |
I wasn't able to control the damage. One inning won the game for them. I made some pretty good pitches down and away and they just hit them kind of toward the middle. The bunt kind of threw me off and next thing I knew it was second and third. I just fell behind and made a bad pitch to Teixeira. I just wasn't good. |
I wasn't happy at halftime with them shooting 55%, and I got into the guys pretty good. I didn't even know what we had done in that regard until I got in here. I was just oblivious to it. But on the way in, I heard guys saying, 'Hey, coach, we held them to a pair of 8s in the second half,' which was pretty amazing. |
I would like to probably have my own business. I haven't decided in what areas - maybe a spa. I like a day spa, something like that. Always giving back to women. Or big shoes because there's a huge market there. People have big feet now. Start at maybe size 10 and end at 15 with some really nice, fashionable shoes. |
I'd be less than truthful if I didn't say that I've been thinking about it because it's important to a lot of people around me -- my coaches, their families and my family. But I really try to put it to the back burner because a lot of responsibilities I have here, and I literally don't have any time to spend on it. |
