I think Kentucky's where it is because of its backcourt, ... Alabama's where it is because of its point guard. I think I'm where I am because I don't have a point guard who's proven that he can make consistent decisions throughout the season.

I thought I was pulling off the ball. I was trying to make the adjustment. I would, and then I'd throw a few pitches to a hitter, and then go right back to it again. So it was just one of those days.

John has been pretty consistent all along and did well for American Legion last summer. He's got to be a leader for us and wreak havoc on the bases. He's a good athlete who can run and throw, but he's got to refine his skills. He's fast but not a great base runner yet. He can throw but can be more accurate. This is a big year for him to get noticed by colleges. The thing I love about John is he works his butt off to get better.

I think the whole key to Craig is similar to Curtis. He grew up with a golf club in his hand and learned at an early age how to play the game.

He's one of those young pups that just pounds the ball which is why I didn't bet him on the side.

I think these kids got it now. I think they have really gotten the concept on defense; the offense has been good, but not consistent all year long, and I think they got it this week.

Sooner or later, they absorb what you're trying to teach them, and instead of doing what you tell them, they do what they know how to do.

I think these minutes are fully consistent with them having to wait until next year.

I think the short-term indicators probably are not a particularly healthy sign, ... Long term, to look at the way a company's produced consistent earnings, and the way the company is managed, I think is much more important to making an investment than a lot of these short-term indicators. But, in a bull market, there's no such thing as bad news. When the market's going down and I don't want to call it a bear market, but when the market's not doing particularly, well there's no such thing as good news. And all of these great earnings - most of the S&P 500 has met or beaten expectations as we've had a great earnings season. And the market doesn't really seem to care. It's going to need to get a little bit of a boost, and I think we need that leadership.

If we continue making those gains and learning how to take control on game day we will be very happy with the end results.

I think he's swinging at better pitches. He's not trying to pull everything. He's trying to hit the ball into the middle of the field and right field. We wish this kid would be more consistent with that. When this kid is on, he's on for good and we need those hitters at the bottom of the lineup.
