I was thrilled to learn that he'd be the coach of USA. And obviously even more thrilled that I made the team and that I'd get to play for him again. I hope I am smarter than I was in college.

Coaching is coaching. If I want to coach leprechauns, I'll coach them.

Hey, the head coach is over here.

We are fortunate to have as our coach somebody of Sam's stature both in the USA and internationally. I believe Fort Worth will immediately take a liking to him -- he is personable and excited to work in this community.

Obviously I didn't make the game fast enough. I didn't coach up to snuff. So, you know, it's a little bit of everything. We move on.

I'm pleased that he made that decision. Obviously, I'd love to have him as a [Team USA] teammate because he's dominant and a competitor. But I think he's taking the right approach and looking at the big picture.
