Our kids are fighters. They had several opportunities to quit tonight and they didn't. They'll come right back again next week.

The kids showed up (last) Monday and went back to work. We're still searching for ways to correct our problems.

I feel bad for the kids because they did play hard, they did a lot of the right things. Some things down the stretch we didn't do right, like help-side defense.

I figure if my kids are alive at the end of the day, I've done my job.

I even mentioned it would only be right if we had a school named after him and he said no.

At the time, it was the right thing for our team. We think we made ourselves better in the long run and it helped build the team we have now.
