He was an offensive lineman on our 1996 state championship team. His weight wasn't a problem as a junior, but when he began to fill out, he gained too much weight. He didn't start a number of games because he wasn't at 275 or under.

For years, I used to make our offensive and defensive linemen, if they weighed over 275 pounds, lose weight down to 275 or under just for health reasons. Today, we've relaxed that a little bit because these guys have gotten so much bigger.

He's the only person we interviewed. He's an excellent, excellent basketball coach and a person of great integrity.

I don't know if you can really contain him (Jones). The best way for us to contain him was to keep our offense on the field and him on the sideline.

When kids are going to gyms and working with personal trainers, you just don't know what they are feeding the kids. It's a scary thing because no one is real sure about what the effects of all these supplements are.

Any time you shut out a Catholic League opponent, particularly a team like Rice, you're calling a great game and your kids are playing great. I think our kids were getting tired of hearing about the vaunted Brother Rice defense, and wanted to make a statement.
