Program Quotations | Page 8

We took a big hit when we discontinued our affiliate program in April.

I have a lot of pride in the experience I had there. Playing for Coach McCurdy was a tremendous experience for me. We do a lot of the things he did. His stamp is on my program as well.

I have a great deal of respect for people who stay in a program without the benefit of a scholarship and go through the grind every day, just hoping for that one time when they are able to put a uniform on and play in the college game. There are a lot of guys around the country who do that, and you have a great deal more respect for those guys than the guys who play on scholarship.

I look forward to speaking with the citizens of Pulaski County about how the judicial system works. Not only am I willing to present the Pillar of Justice Program about the court system, I'm also willing to speak at special events such as Memorial or Veteran's Day, or during special school activities.

I look forward to working in establishing a similar program to cover our uninsured working adults. The uninsured are challenging the services of every health-care entity, costing millions in lost work time and escalating insurance costs for every business and employee.

I look forward to continued success of our racing program as our racetrack improves its product, physical plant and backstretch facilities.

I look forward to continuing my coaching career at Kent State. My goal, as it has been since the day I arrived at Kent State, is to continue the tradition our program has developed. We will strive to maintain the high level of excellence Kent State basketball has achieved in recent years.

I always felt respected as a man, but I was never respected as a player (until this season). This season was great. We were 9-3. We had some mishaps. We could have been in the SEC Championship Game. Coach Meyer has brought the program a long way. We've got guys trusting each other. We've got guys doing the right things on and off the field.

I also meet with city officials, representatives from governors' offices, really anyone in that sort of position who has shown an interest in youth fitness, to let them know why this sort of program is so important. I give the same message when I speak at conferences.

Hundreds of kids could benefit from a program like this. Lots of adolescents are getting treated on an outpatient basis, when they really need to be in a residential program.

Huge difference. You can't even compare it. He took over a program that he knew going in was going to take some time.

I accept the challenge to elevate the football program to the VMI standard of excellence.

Hydrogen holds the ultimate long-term promise for clean and sustainable power. In the meantime, both hybrids and ethanol-fueled vehicles can significantly lessen U.S. dependence on imported oil while reducing the impact on our global environment. The Escape Hybrid E85 program could lead to the breakthroughs needed to marry these two important technologies in production vehicles.

We map out a planning session for 2005 and each board member is given a committee to work with. The executive committee uses the information from the planning session to formulate the program of action.

We meet at least once a week with the CATS program and the coaching staff to communicate with the players to keep up with their school work.

We met him once, gave him a CD and he dug it. We got a couple spins on his program and the response is great. He's also been promoting our show Saturday.

He was a great asset to our program. He made me a better coach just because he was never afraid to challenge or make suggestions and stand strongly behind how he felt. There was no question from the day he came into my program that he?d be a head coach, and I knew he?d be very successful.

He was a great guy. It was such a tragedy, what happened. He touched a lot of lives. I know with St. Francis, he and (athletic director) Randy Maris had a lot of plans, he wanted to give Bud the chance to build a basketball program and unfortunately it didn't work out. At least his family, his kids, will have something they can hold to and remember him by.

He was a great inspiration to the players and coaches, ... On those days when he had to take chemo and radiation, he was at practice that day and sometimes the cumulative effects would cause him to miss the next day, but the time when he wasn't active in the program was minimal.

He was a great inspiration to the players and coaches. On those days when he had to take chemo and radiation, he was at practice that day and sometimes the cumulative effects would cause him to miss the next day, but the time when he wasn't active in the program was minimal.

He was a great player for us, but he's really been a great ambassador for the program off the court.

Having a credit card associated with a frequent-flier program is a real money maker. Typically, airlines charge the credit-card company one or two cents for each mile issued. That can equate to millions of dollars.

He coached at the highest level as an assistant under Jim Calhoun, he took over a program and learned how to become a head coach, and then he came to the Ivy League -- and it really helps to know how to recruit and how it works in this league. His background was impeccable. He was a front-runner from day one.

He comes from a top level program and has a lot of experience on the offensive side of the ball.

He was someone who came to our program who was a good player but not a great player. He became a great player due to his hard work.

He was the county medical examiner in Des Moines before he came here. There was a program there and he thought it would be good to have one here.

He was pretty much responsible for hiring the faculty early on in that department. His confident leadership helped to develop the School of Planning into the excellent program that it is today.

We looked around and saw that many of the girls who have made this program what it is today, were still in place. I didn't see any reason to walk away from one of the most successful programs in the state.

He didn't know exactly where, but he said eventually he would be at a college and he would be looking for me to possibly come play for him, ... I wasn't getting along too well with the program over there at A&T, so I was looking for somewhere to go anyway.

He did not past his test so he is not going to be with us right now. If he passes it, he is welcome to come on our program for a semester as a walk-on and we can put him on scholarship next year.

He could play, but the doctors think there could be some nerve damage if he bangs that elbow again. It's not worth the risk. He's too good of a football player with too much ahead of him to take that kind of chance. It's a big loss for us because he's one of the great players in America. He and Michael Robinson are probably the two guys who turned the program around. That and the fact that we're still playing good on defense.

He didn't walk into a great situation. Mike's worked hard to get the program where it is now. I couldn't be more proud.

I am humbled and appreciative of the support shown by the leadership of Rutgers University. We will continue to build Rutgers into a championship-caliber football program that will serve as a source of great pride for our university and the state of New Jersey.

I am extremely proud of these dancers. We are a new program competing against teams who have been dancing for years. Our dancers showed great sportsmanship and enthusiasm.

I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to usher the program through its early stages of growth. For 10 years I have approached my responsibilities with pride and with passion. It has been a tremendous experience to work with our amazing student-athletes.

I am fully convinced that he will elevate the program to what you expect.

I am fully convinced that he will elevate the program to what you expect. You will love his values, you will be impressed with his preparation for every game and you will love the aggressive defense his team plays. He has made clear our players will do well academically and graduate and that he will comply fully with NCAA regulations.

I am fundraising simply by word of mouth and sending out letters. I tell friends, family, faculty, and others about what I am doing, why I am doing it, who the program is helping, and ask for donations.

I am glad to get the monkey off my back. The program needed the 20 wins more than anything to take that next jump. It's big for us.

I am honored to have been chosen as the next director of athletics at Iowa State University. Iowa State's athletic program has a rich tradition, a solid foundation and tremendous potential for growth and even greater success. The opportunity to lead the athletic program at this time is very exciting.

I am just proud to take over a program with such great tradition.

I always had a good rapport with the kids. Being young, I think I bring a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of dedication and energy to a program that really needs some.

If we are able to get one drunk driver off the road, then the program is worth it.

If we are going to get the national recognition for our program we have to play some of these games. And we have to win some of them. There is no point in playing these games if we don't want to win.

If the Bush economic program is as successful as they say it is, why do they keep firing everybody who had anything to do with it? ... an extraordinary confession of failure in the economic arena by this administration.

If the community is not able to get to you, then we take the program to the community.

If the Congress decides that the priority for this engine is higher than the DoD has proposed, then I'm sure the Congress will be able to soundly and thoughtfully restore the program in a way that will be the least damaging to everything else.

He did a good job with the program and made himself accessible to kids and parents. He did it a lot better than most.

He has been well received because he's genuine, ... He's not resume building. He's not looking for the next job. He's more like 'I want to make this a great program and I'm going to put my energy into it.'

He has brought so much in terms of organizing things. He helped take the program to a new level.

He has directed a review of this program and ordered no further grants be distributed until that review is complete.

He has good skills and a nice makeup. But he may be better suited for a smaller Division I program than an ACC one.

He inherited a situation that was very difficult, so to hold him to that bar is not realistic. He will be, but not right now. His job is to build a program that can be consistently competitive or successful.

He has worked as hard as anyone in our program to improve and his dedication is paying off. It is really a treat to watch him blossom right before our eyes this year.

Had the judge not dismissed the case, there is a chance that this individual would still be in the program and a chance that those girls would not have been victimized.

He was an integral part of our program when we were getting started and it's exciting to have him back as part of the family.

He's had a lot of great teams come through here but, after the last few years, maybe he realized the program needed a change.

He was a very special man. He was a strong supporter of our program and he really, really cared. We're very honored to have the opportunity to wear his (uniform) number. He was a great, great player, but he was also a great, great man. We just think it's the right thing to do. Our players are pleased and excited about it.

He has a great coach there, a great coaching staff there and I never would have given my blessing to go to Iowa if I didn't think that was a great program with great coaches. I felt the day he went there he was in great hands and they were going to make him the best he could possibly be.

He went two hard ones yesterday. We're trying to program what he needs, but at the same time not put him at risk.

He has no agenda, he just has slogans. The pressure to come up with a program of reforms is huge.

He hasn't been going to all those little camps and stuff. The (Marshall) program had dwindled. When you don't stay above water, people will forget you.

He had a program called Free Spirit, ... He split $1 million four ways between people who didn't conform to the normal. I did a couple of slow rolls with the X-1 (the plane in which he broke the sound barrier), and I guess he thought that qualified.

He was the heart and soul of our program the last two years. He started as a sophomore, but he was young then. The last two years, everything surrounded him on offense and defense. He stepped up to that challenge and put us on his back during that period and got Grove City back on the map in basketball.

He was the leading scorer on a 2-14 team. Not knocking Rashaad, but this program is going to be just fine with or without (him).

He works hard with these guys. He's got a program for most of these kids. Lee basically preaches staying inside of the ball, a little weight shift, and right-center, left-center, which is a good way to teach. The players believe in him. He's done a really nice job with our hitters.

I make appearance at local park and recreation agencies when the program starts, when they have the qualifying meets at the local levels. Then I try to go to the regional competitions, and of course I'm there in Hershey, Pa., in August for the North American final.

I make fractals. They're like mathematical pictures. My stepdad is actually a rocket scientist, so in his free time, he gave me a fractal program for fun. He showed me how to use it when I was about nine or 10, and I made thousands of fractals.

I'm always happy when the viewers are happy, ... I obviously don't program for the people in the newsroom or my friends or the people I went to law school with. I program for the viewers.

Historically when weve gone into a program like this, weve had engine developments that start right off the bat. Instead were saying, lets focus our new propulsion development on much smaller-scale efforts. Lets also have back up plans in case it doesnt work out. Its a balanced risk versus reward that weve laid out here.

His WMD program is active, detailed and growing. The policy of containment is not working,

His 'Take the Field' program was one of the most innovative and beautiful efforts in athletics in this country, ... His efforts provide fields of play for young New York athletes who otherwise would have no place to play.

Golden Valley finds a way to win games. Our program from me down to the last player have to find a way to do that.

Golden West has a good program and when you are playing good teams you have to play good defense and you need timely hitting. This was a good game for us to play, we'll learn from it.

Going from two wins (overall) to seven is progress. But if there's any program in the country that needed early success in conference play, it would be us. We didn't get those but we just have to continue on.

Going into spring ball, the strength of the program may lie on the offensive side. It's going to be a pretty competitive spring on the offensive side of the ball.

The PACE Award is one of the highest honors in the automotive industry. This program recognizes the most advanced supplier innovations and it has become an influential industry benchmark. We now look forward to sharing our award-winning technology with customers for a wide variety of applications.

He shares the vision that I have: to elevate the overall athletics program at Iowa State and to increase resources and make Cyclone athletics great,

Under Irish law, the Company is required to obtain the approval of its shareholders to buy back its own shares. The Board, believing it to be in the best interests of the shareholders and the Company, agreed that the Company should request this approval to provide the Company with the flexibility to buy back shares if it determines that the benefits associated with such a program can be realized.

Under our current collective-bargaining contract there is an incentive program that our members are sharing in. Given the obscene level of profits the company is now enjoying, though, it should probably be more.

When they first come here, they're stuck in a certain spot; they may know where they want to go, but they don't know how to get there, and they don't have much confidence. This program requires them to be here every day, to come in when they're not feeling their best, to work as a team -- all skills they need for the workplace.

When they leave the program, when they turn 18, The Haven will match up to $1,000 of whatever they save. Then, at the end of 12 months of the Turning Point program with Turtle Nest, whatever they've been able to save during that 12-month period, our donors will match up to $2,500.

He's earned the job. It could be Justin back next week, but he (Fox) deserved to be in there tonight. We're always working with the young kids to fill in. One of the things about our program is if you don't improve, somebody is going to pass you by.

He's a very gifted player, and he's really worked hard to develop his skills. In the short term, we couldn't have had the success we've had (this year without him). He has helped turn the program around this year.

He's been put on the concussion program again, but the first one was so severe I think the program may go longer. There's no set time on when he can be back or when he can even resume practice. Symptom-free for a week doesn't necessarily mean he can have contact again. That could take weeks.

He's been sketchy at major events. He either doesn't show up or he shows up for one program and not the other.

He's been through a lot in this program and he has tremendous veteran leadership. He's always been a clutch guy.

He's always been a respectful young man. . . . If he wins, he goes over and shakes hands, just like when he loses. The program I think benefited him as far as his overall discipline.

He's always run a clean program in the years I've coached with him. He would never create a situation intentionally that would bring disrespect to him or his program.

Hopefully they'll be able to keep going and the program will get better. Coach Weber does a great job of recruiting and a great job developing players. They have a good base with a majority of players coming back. I don't see why anything would change.

Hopefully they'll look after him while he's in camp because he's on a fairly modified program for us and I'd hope they would carry that through.

He's done a heck of a job getting Alabama back and getting the program better.

He's done so much for me. He's good for the program and does everything in life by the book. He's a good man with a good knowledge of basketball, but more importantly, he's just a very good man.

He's been as good an ambassador for this university and the athletic program as anybody ever has -- maybe the best. Stop and think about all the lives he has touched along the way, people in western Kansas, or wherever, that have never seen Max but know his voice the first time they turn on the radio.

He's been in our program for a couple of years,

He's been in our program for four years. He's shared time and been on the field with some pretty good running backs.

He's getting his confidence and he's figuring out that the varsity level is a little higher intensity level. But he's adjusting and so are the other kids. I'm pleased with all those guys that swing. I can't say enough good things about what I think that is doing for our basketball program in the future.

He's brought a sense of discipline to that program that it really needed. The people around him believe in him and what he's doing, and that's very important. They're building something really good down there, and I'm proud of what they've done.

He's buying into our program and how he should play the game, and that's promising. He was very contentious early on, and he still has his moments, but he's learning.

He's going to be an off-ice conditioning program for the next 10 days to two weeks and then he will be reevaluated after that. They are going to try and get the right level of medication that he needs. Medicine is not an exact science, so you have to test things and try them. They are in that process now.
