Our goal is to bring building professionals in Northern California the best practices in the construction industry, and this includes bridging the gap between conventional construction and sustainable building and demonstrating the financial, social and environmental return for all parties involved. We believe a valuable consensus is emerging for delivering on this inclusive value proposition and we are removing all barriers to entry to this knowledge.

Our focus should be to eliminate the need for any financial subsidies. How do we get the lower-revenue teams up to the point where there's no issue of revenue sharing because there's no need for it? How do we develop best practices so that we all, each of the 32 clubs, learn from each other?

Our focus around practices have been the best of the season for two weeks straight. It's been kind of nice.

I think he was mad at me for the four minutes he sat. But he practices this hard. You should have seen Monday's practice; he was on the floor right away. A lot of other guys would have been hesitant with the injury that he had. But he was ready to play the Drake game. That's just who Jeff is.

I was very pleased with our overall performance. We got better as the day went on and several of the freshmen got some quality court time. Having only practices a couple of days it was great to get out and play and see where we are at right now.

I was very pleased with the way we played in the second half. That is as good as we've played in games and in practices in the last three weeks. It gives us something to build on. We were able to do what we wanted to offensively in the second half. We knocked down a couple of shots that gave us confidence.

I wondered if he'd be at any of my practices here. All of a sudden, he's standing beside me.

I think our program has been the driver for some people. I also think others would have pursued these practices on their own without SB 1010. It doesn't really matter. If it improves the resources and, at the same time, improves their economics, then we've had success.

It feels like everything has been put back together. She knows what she is talking about and helps us to improve our game. Practices are very organized and we always are working on something with a single goal in mind.

I think we need to price carbon; there's no question about it. The way we do it needs to be based on science and not political debates and attacks, and that's why I'm drawing on experts and best practices from around the world.

I think we've improved in every area, and I think they could say the same. That game was the first weekend in January before we started going through this gauntlet. I think both teams just have so many more experiences; so many more practices that have hopefully made us better in every area. And I think we both probably are.

I thought all 15 practices were exactly what I wanted to accomplish. Just knowing what's going on and being a lot more comfortable in the huddle is where I've improved the most.

I think it's fair to say that, even in the absence of legislation, we've had widespread adoption of privacy practices and policies. The private sector generally has an incentive to do things in a good way.

I think we're doing a moderate job and relying a little too much on databases historically being deeper within the enterprise. Some examples of really bad practices are static passwords stored in clear text in applications and batch jobs, shared administrative accounts, no controls on DBA activity, etc. We can definitely be doing better.

I thought under the circumstances of having only one and a half to two practices and changing systems, we were pretty good out there. Overall, I was really pleased.

We were so disappointed in ourselves. To come out in the first game like that. National TV. The spotlight. And we pretty much laid an egg. We embarrassed the coaching staff, we embarrassed ourselves. We showed that in practice (Sunday). It wasn't one of those practices where we just showed up, took a few shots and went home. Coach was on us and we went at it. That's what you saw in this game.

We had one of the best practices we've had in the 21/2 years I've been here. Guys really seemed committed to getting better. Little things like that are good signs. You hope it translates to the games, but you never know.

We played hard and I feel we accomplished a lot during our practices and in the (three) games last week. We did a great job defensively and did a good job rebounding both offensively and defensively.

We had two poor practices the last two days (before the game) and coming down here, we seemed like we were a little flat. But you have to give Davidson credit.
