We'd worked for the previous board, ... so we knew the proper way to run the club. In the very first week, Darren Brown was paying money out with no invoices, so we began to keep a log.
Out of all the young running backs I've watched, I like this kid best. Based upon the flashes of greatness I've seen from him, Julius has a chance to be special.
I was just a big guy running down with a big, deep pocket and little short stick putting it against my chest.
Nobody I ever broke bread with, and I see players all the time, talked about using their head running the football.
People think that coaches are always right, but it's difficult to teach a runner how to run, because every runner is different. You have to have an understanding of how to assist what that runner has, so they know how to assist what you have without taking away your special ability, because you're not like anybody else.
I could run 200 yards at a stretch, I could duck between players, I felt free to make plays that suited me best. It wasn't like football then and basketball today, where coaches tell you what foot to put down.
There were a lot of running backs as good as me. The real difference was that I could focus. I never laid back and relied on natural ability.
We went from third to eighth or ninth real quick.
We certainly haven't given up hope because we see what they can do - their potential. We've got to find a way to transfer that into when the tournament starts.
We are trying to see who can perform under those conditions.
They all know that they have to play better. Most of it is course management and short game. We have really been trying to concentrate on that the whole year.
During the tournament we didn't perform the way we should.
The sound of airboats on lakes, rivers and wetlands has become a controversial subject in Florida in recent years, ... Increased development in these areas, in part, has resulted in increased sound complaints from homeowners and outdoor enthusiasts.
See. There's a lot of teaching going on out there. That's where it all begins.
