I think Connecticut, if I'm not mistaken, is still ranked above us, aren't they? I think it's in all the polls. I'm not aware of us being ranked over Connecticut. The win we had against them didn't matter much. Connecticut still holds a long history over the Knights. One game for us isn't going to make us the big shots of the Big East. Connecticut will come in as the favorite, no doubt about it. |
I think every single point will be important, ... I think more than anything, I'll just have to be able to compete better. When you're playing Serena Williams, you have to compete better than her. I got a lot of tricks from Serena just watching her. She inspired me so many times. I also got motivated by her in the early part of my career, and even now. I just have to compete better, bottom line. |
I think it's just a change overall in our program, the way we approached spring ball, the way we approached the off-season workouts, the way we approach practice. I think that plays a big part. How we work in the weight room, overall what we do in the classroom, what we do off the field, everything just has changed. A lot of that has to do with Coach Weis and how he's changed the program around. |
I think the great thing about our offense is that ... we have a bunch of guys that are capable of making plays. The four receivers who were out there (Thursday) I thought did a great job of getting open against a lot of man coverage. I thought the tight ends did a nice job. ... Corey caught a few passes, Kevin caught some passes and spread the ball around. It puts a lot of pressure on a defense. |
I think the memorial will always be seen in that beautiful relationship to the two monuments. When you enter it, with the Lincoln Memorial at your back, you travel down into the depths, and this black wall looms over you. Then you turn, and there before you is this obelisk pointing to the sun. That relationship will never die. People will always feel something wonderful and uplifting about that. |
I think the results are on point. If we're going to move new products and innovation into practice, we need to understand better the characteristics and incentives that are important to the consumers -- what makes them receptive to new products? And from there, how do they get information? If we can make consumers aware of options and get them to demand innovation, we can transform our industry. |
I think they said they have enrolled about 500 dual-credit hours for Parsons High School kids. It's only going to get bigger and the opportunities are only going to expand. And, the more students take advantage of it, the better it will be. Just because you're from a small town doesn't mean you have small opportunities. Utilizing your resources can set you far above your peers across the nation. |
I think we had three top-10 teams and five teams in the top 20 that year ... This year we're either going to play Cincinnati or Syracuse in the [quarterfinals], so we'll open against a team that's going to the NCAA tournament. It was almost impossible to imagine this scenario a few years ago. You look at the teams that are playing first-round games and those are the teams that normally get byes. |
I think when you have situation where you cannot reliably know how long it's going to take to get to a certain place, or when you have businesses that are making the decision not to grow because of the state of transportation, or when you have families that are separated for such long hours because people are spending an hour-and-a-half to two hours to get to work, then I think you're in crisis. |
I wanted to fully understand what was at stake if the pre-existing legislation was altered or repealed within the context of our new aviation climate, ... Further, I wanted to hear from various segments of my constituency. After many meaningful discussions and a thorough analysis, I am convinced now more than ever that the risks of amending or repealing the Wright Amendment are simply too great. |

I wasn't comfortable putting him out there in the starting lineup, ... He's yet to scrimmage in the full-court yet and if you look at the number of days he's been out, it's quite a few. I was concerned that if he would go out there and try to play, that we could now lose him for another five games down the road. I want to see him get out there and compete and go up and down in a scrimmage first. |
I wasn't shocked. We were all a little disappointed we didn't get a higher seed. Houston got a three seed (in a different bracket). That's just the way it's gone all year. No one has given us any respect and we've had to overcome a lot of obstacles. Nobody has given us anything all year. I wasn't expecting anybody to give us anything now. This is just another chance for us to prove people wrong. |
I went into this thing thinking I would not get drafted and do it through free agency. I tried to lower the expectations when things are out of my control. ... I think the thing that helped me the most was my game film from my first two seasons. I was fortunate to have a lot of success my first two years and had a lot of plays that I think the coaches looked at and saw a lot of athletic ability. |
I won't have to say a word to him about that. We have felt, since he has been with the organization, this kid is going to be a captain someday. He handles himself at such a young age as a pro, and I feel that's the ultimate compliment to a player. He's got some great leadership qualities as far as how he carries himself - not his words - but just how he carries himself and that's very important. |
