Mike Candrea Kids Quotations

I want kids who are going to go out there and compete, lay it all on the table. I think the big thing about this game is you have to care a lot about it.

I don't want to deal with problems, and so you want to make sure that you don't give yourself problems by not doing your homework and maybe trying to take a kid that's got great ability but isn't going to get it done in the classroom.

We need to pick things up right now and find a way. We need kids to contribute. They have on occasion this year, but we need to make sure everyone comes ready to do their part.

It's very disheartening. I'm used to kids in an Arizona uniform that play the game hard and play the game as a front-runner. This weekend they played like they were in awe. Hopefully it's a weekend that will help us turn it around.
