I keep telling the proverb

 I keep telling the kids if I could ever do something or wish something for this senior class it's for them to get to go to Murfreesboro. I keep telling them there's nothing like it. You can't imagine what it's like playing at Murphy Center in the state tournament.

 I wasn't begging, just simply telling them if there was a team in this country that epitomized what the NCAA would like to put on the floor with the class and magnitude of this tournament, it's the Air Force Academy. I think they took that to heart. Beyond that, you have to look at the 24-6 record. We did have great wins, despite what the talking heads were telling everyone.

 I've been telling the kids all along we were the best 4-5 team in the state. We're as good as anybody in Class D. We went in No. 1 last year and have a lot of veterans back, but we just weren't closing out games until tonight.

 That's how they've been all year. The guys are as tough as nails. I knew they weren't going to quit. That's the kind of kids we have at our school. ... I'm always telling them, 'We win with class and we lose with class.' We left it all on the floor. I'm proud of our kids.

 It's about time. I'm kind of numb. I'm just happy for the kids. We had five champions, and the seniors got to go out the way they wanted to. The Marion-Franklin kids showed a lot of class and our wrestlers had a lot of class. Right now we just want to get the kids ready for the state tournament.

 In hindsight, you think, yeah there are things you could have done. But at the time we had multiple sources telling us the information and we had people in positions of authority ... telling us the information was correct. When you have officials telling you something and eyewitnesses telling you something, at some point you have to rely on that information.

 He talked to kids, telling them what jail's like, telling them you don't need to go to know what it's like.

 Playing on a big stage like this, at the Kohl Center, at the state tournament, I don't know if you ever expect to come out and shoot the ball like we did tonight. I had a feeling, though, we might have a good game. At the shoot-around on Wednesday, we made every­thing we threw up there. The way we're playing right now, nothing surprises me with this group of kids.

 I have agencies telling me two different things - FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) and the state and the city auditor. It's hard when multiple agencies are telling you to do something or not to do something.

 I don't shy away from telling you that if we didn't win this game and qualify for the state tournament, it would've been a disappointment for all of us. To get it done in this kind of fashion is very gratifying.

 We know that we're right there and we have a senior class that wants to end on a good note. We want to take care of business and get back to the state tournament.

 Well, right now my heart is telling me one thing. My brain is telling me another. My brain is telling me it's nice to come over here and get this first win and set the tone for series. The pressure is on them a little bit now. But we know they're capable of anything at anytime. So, we've got to be at our best for the next two days.

 The whole reason we go to this tournament is to prepare for state. The top kids in every weight class go to the tournament and its a good chance to get a look at everybody.

 Everybody's got to do a little better and pick it up so we can get over the hump. I've been telling people and telling the guys that this team has been playing well, but not well enough to win. I told them if you play well and keep doing what you're doing, you'll break through. They're a better team than their record shows.

 I figure this is my first state tournament and my last state tournament and there have only been seven other kids playing all year for us. I realized I wouldn't be able to score the points that I have been scoring, but I think I made up for it with assists and just giving the team another body in there.
