He had a work ethic like we just don?t see today. I?m just not sure they make folks like that anymore -- not with that kind of dedication.

I think a lot of it is his work ethic. He had to work very hard at a very young age.

I think he's one of the great young coaches in lacrosse because of his great work ethic and because he has a great rapport with the players. I think we're lucky both ways.

He brings a championship work ethic and a championship legacy with him to Oregon State, and we're extremely pleased and excited that Jim will be part of the Beaver family.

We're adding a coach to our staff who has won three national championships. He brings a championship work ethic and a championship legacy with him to Oregon State.

Very athletic, very intelligent, very good work ethic. And he's a very good role model for our younger players. If Joe wanted to be, I have the feeling that he could probably be a pretty good coach.
