It could be the best class since the Fab Five.

I think it's great with all the opportunities that those players have now. By the time those kids here come here, they are ready for Rookie league or Class A league or whatever, because we can keep them (at the academies) for a couple years until we think they are ready to come here, and that makes a big difference.

I think it's horrible because so many people are going to miss those first two days of class. For some courses it's mandatory to go to the first day, like labs and things. This is terrible planning.

I thought the whole class did great and would make it into fourth grade.

I thought they showed a lot of class. Julia's chasing the record (of 24 goals in a year previously held by Christina Aiello), and gives up the ball to Erika Ghent on the first goal. In the situation she was in, she could have just easily turned and scored, but she gave up a decent scoring opportunity to give Erika a great one.

I thought the other horse was going to blow by. To hold on like he did shows his quality. This was a gut check. Class always prevails. If he could have gone slower, he probably could have won by more.

We need a long- and short-term approach to this crisis, ... New Yorkers are feeling the middle class squeeze at the gas pump, and they will certainly be feeling it this winter.

We not only wanted great talent, but we wanted players a lot of different ages (to balance class numbers). As a group, we got tremendous size, height and speed.

We've talked a lot about this senior class and this program. The last time the tournament was in Little Rock, we experienced success there. This team understands there is a lot of hard work that goes into that.

I was a screenwriting major at Georgetown, and I was in class with some really strong writers like Jonathan Nolan, who co-wrote 'The Dark Knight' with Chris, his brother. He wrote 'The Prestige,' the story for 'Memento.'

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 was not going into get into a situation where I was going to take a quarterback just to take one. There are a lot of great quarterbacks coming up in the (2007) class that we've already visited, so I'm in no rush. I want to make sure it's the right guy.

I wasn't here, but I've heard so many things about the job they did in 1997. We've only been in town for a few hours, but everybody has been first class in every way. I think that makes it easy for our guys to concentrate on the job at hand.

Traveling has taken a lot from us, missing class and having to make up work. But coach gave us a couple of days off to rest. This week is going to be big for us.

We believe the long-term outlook for hotel investment remains quite attractive. While we are not driven by a specific timetable, our over- arching objective is to strategically invest $500 million annually over the next several years in the acquisition and development of primarily hotel- related opportunities.

We don't have enough job growth, and the right kind of job growth to pull the working-class people out of poverty.

And if you aren't where you should be in the class, they definitely help you get up to a passing level or make sure your understanding everything.

The answers to feeding hungry children is not fewer dollars to feed hungry children, it's to do more. It is to raise the minimum wage. It is to increase, not dismantle, the earned income tax credit.

With the U-17 Region III ODP team coming to Athens, it is a great opportunity for our fans to see some of the best young players in the south region. Actually, there will be two-to-three future Georgia Bulldogs from our 2006 signing class on display that night, which will be great to see.

We had maybe the best punter and kicker in the country and maybe the best quarterback in New England (in Flutie) and we lost him, so replacing him is the biggest thing we have to do.

We have a good senior class that has played a lot of football, and I've been impressed with how they've stepped in and tried to make up for the loss of Billy Flutie.

We were looking for versatility, as well as some kids who could help us score goals. I think we've done that with this class.
