behind focused junior learned mike obviously playing prepare start starter stay tennessee year
Obviously you want to start, but if I don't start I still have to prepare like I'm a starter because you never know what's going to happen, ... That's something I learned in college. During my junior year I was playing behind Mike Doss now with Indianapolis and Donnie Nickey now with Tennessee so I just had to stay focused and ready.
coaches depth difficult playing preach prepare secondary starters team veterans
We have some depth in the secondary and the coaches preach to the backups to prepare like starters and I think you can see that on the field. When all of the guys, from the veterans to the rookies, are playing hard, it makes us a very difficult team to beat.
good leaders leaders-and-leadership playing point step team
The leaders of this team need to step up and make a point that everyone understands we're playing a really good team.
guys happens message offensive playing send start sure top
I know we got guys in here who can get it done, because it happens on some nights. But it doesn't happen in others. This has to start with me, because I am our top offensive player. If I can send the message about playing defense, then I'm pretty sure everyone else will follow.
beating challenge falls knew playing tough
I knew we could be competitive and challenge for it. Playing tough and beating them (Great Falls and Lewisville) are two different things.
baseball doubt good helena mind number playing tempo
St. Helena has a lot of confidence. They're playing good baseball. We had to put a number up in the first inning to put doubt in their mind. I don't know if we necessarily put doubt in their mind but it set the tempo for us.

It was a fun game for us because we were able to get a lot of playing time for all the kids. We are pleased with the outcome but now we need to focus on next week.

It's never been done. This became bigger than just the players and the coaches. It is the whole sum of everybody that has ever come through this school. This town is a basketball town, that's all we have. It is what we do, and the kids put their whole hearts into playing basketball.
basketball fingers group hard playing pointing seem win
I'm not pointing fingers at anybody, but as a group we're not playing hard enough to win basketball games. We don't seem hungry. We don't seem like we want to make it to the playoffs.

I'm happy that it's over with and I know where I'm going. I'm real excited about going out there and just playing football. The good thing about it is that I can get a great education and I get to play the sport I love.

No matter what the injury was diagnosed to be, I was going to come back better than ever. That is the attitude that I have; I am not going to let anything stop me from reaching my dream of playing in the National Football League.
came coach coming dizzy feeling felt good great halftime playing ready sit stopped telling worked
It was a great feeling (to sit out) because I didn't feel good at all, ... I was telling Coach when I was getting ready to go back in that I wasn't feeling that well and he just told me to come back, and fortunately everything worked out fine. I just didn't feel good. I was dizzy out there the whole game. Once I stopped playing at halftime and came back in, I just never felt right. I think I'm coming down with something.
amazing learned nature picking playing quality season teacher wish work
It's amazing how he's got that competitive nature where he's not going to stop. That's a quality I wish I had more of. I've learned a lot playing with him all year. He's a teacher and he doesn't even know it. What he's doing I'm picking up on for the off season so I can work on my game.
five guys played playing solid team
We just played real solid from one through five. When we've got all five guys playing well at one tournament, we can play with any team in the country.
