If you look at what Tim accomplished as a true freshman, I was disappointed he didn't get any awards. He's back looking as good as ever. With a year under his belt, he should be able to match last year's level.

Most of the other awards, quite honestly, they're more inside the industry, ... This is meant to reach out and touch the consumers.

The difference between this award and any other is that it's a reader's choice. People holler about other awards because they are committee-selected. This is not committee-selected. There are purists in literary circles who have a different sense of what is going on here, but we think anything you can do to get people reading is a good thing.

This year has been far less turnover and it's been smoother. More familiarity. ... Last year we put the foundation in how we're looking for our younger players to grow and get better.

We've struggled to score goals. One of the problems we've had is getting goals from the midfield to help the strikers.

Ideally our goal is to increase the number of scholarships offered while also increasing the dollar amount of the awards.
