I thought we were better off discussing (the problem) than trying to punish anybody or bag skate them or whatever. I was trying to find out reasons why we came out so lackluster yesterday, get their opinions, instead of me just going in and telling them we didn't show up with urgency and we didn't show up with commitment. |
I told him I wanted him to listen. I told him I appreciated the way he cheered for his teammates at the end of (Wednesday's) game. It meant a lot. I was sorry that the crowd, some of the people booed him. And I told him I just wanted him to let us coach him the rest of the year. He's not going anywhere, and let's move on. |
I told him that I’d prefer him not to do that, ... He felt he could maybe get a bunt base hit and, like I said earlier, if he makes it, then we’re OK. But even if he makes it, it still might not be the right play.. ... He feels that’s part of his game in his mind. But, personally, no, I’d rather him swing the bat. |
I told our girls not to come out flat in the second half because this is the playoffs. Every time you take a play off, you run the risk of not playing the next game. It's one and done, and we knew North Myrtle Beach still had fire power. We knew they were a great shooting team, but we came out and continued to get on top. |

I want to believe that there's some consolidation first, some stabilization, ... I think it will be easier to make the case that a bottom is closer at hand. But if you're a buyer in the technology sector, you're really not looking to call that ultimate bottom, because you have to be able to ease your way in at this point. |
I want to stimulate people to think about why it is that Jews have been the object of hatred for so many centuries and to explore the myths underlying all forms of bigotry. The presentation is not just about anti-Semitism. It's really about challenging people to look at the myths that form the basis of bigotry and racism. |
I was nervous a little bit out there, ... But after the first or second play, it was like, 'OK, what's the call?' And playing safety, you pretty much know the whole defense. You know what corners do, what the linebackers do. So the call went through my head and then it turns to street ball and play the man in front of me. |
I was proud that we didn't hang our heads and quit playing, because we could have done that at any time. We played hard. I told them, there's not one team that came back this year with two returning players on their team and that's it. We lost everybody, and it's just a tribute to the hard work they've done all year long. |
I was so impressed with St. Bonaventure tonight. It's kind of unfortunate they're playing their best basketball now. I truly believe they got a couple wins left in them. Unfortunately, the season has kind of caught up to them a little bit. We were pretty nervous. Thank God for our experience. That was the only difference. |
I was upset because in the true concept of team it is not about pointing the finger. It is not about that. We are all in this together. We have tried to engender this thought process since we have been here. Occasionally out of frustration, something happens where someone says something that they haven't thought out well. |
I wasn't happy at halftime with them shooting 55 percent, 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 need to see it from where the umpire was standing. But if he sees him [Locklear] restricting that player from getting to the quarterback with his arm wrapped around him, then he can call a hold. As I remember the play, he got his arm around the neck, so by the letter of the law that's restricting, and it's a hold. |
I would not travel to the Middle East or Asia without first having full knowledge of the means to do what is needed in order to prevent myself from contracting [the Avian Flu]. But I don't worry too much about the bird flu in general; I don't feel threatened by it, because I don't think it is going to get to where we are. |
I would say for the most part we haven't had anything like that in almost two years. That's as effective as you're going to get of a running game. Hopefully we can build off of it. I just know one thing: If we can get it going it will make us so much more effective through the air and ultimately that's what we want to do. |
