Juan had something like six out of eight quality starts at the end of the year, and that's not counting 10 strikeouts earlier against the Yankees. There's no denying the ability. As he continues to mature, we'd like to look at him as someone we can rely on. If you look at the back end of the rotation guys around the league, he could be in the upper echelon.

I talked to (the team) before the game about assists and about being team players. We had two assists against Philomath (Friday, Jan. 20) and we had 14 assists against Y-C. We only had one in the fourth quarter and once again they caught up with us in the fourth quarter, so maybe that was the problem.

I talked to the team about defending our home turf; it's a lot like ACC basketball, where you have to win at home because you don't know if you can get a road win. It's big coming in here and winning against a good Silver Bluff team.

I think it means something because in this league confidence means so much. You never want a player to have so much confidence that he feels he can take over a game at any time. The positive thing about this is that he's not going to think he can walk out on the floor and score 17 straight against us.

Jerry Sloan

I think it'll happen again because of the three-point line. Tracy McGrady is a guy who could do something like that, because he can shoot from a distance and also get on top of the basket.

I think it is the biggest win of the year. We played 60 minutes against a great team and especially a team in our division. We know that all those games are going to be huge for the rest of the season. It is only one game so we have to carry that on to the next game.

I think it came down to the free-throw line. Whether it was the depth perception or whatever it was, we didn't hit free throws like we hit them against Sanford the other night. That, I think, was what lost the game.

Johnny Miller

On Sunday, if Tiger went up against those guys, he'd know deep down, 'These guys are going to kick my butt if I don't play my best.' And I don't believe he thinks that way now. He knows if he's playing good, he's got it.

I think in general, you need a bad guy to have someone to root against and I think kids understand a story more clearly if there's an evil element for them to cheer against and to root for the good guys.
