Figured Quotations | Page 2

When I figured out this was the first broad-based academic activity to do with Bruce, I was kind of shocked.

When I figured out I had to write a book, I wasn't afraid.

We usually don't play tournaments this early. We usually like to wait until we've been back in school for six weeks, but since we'll play on this course during district, I figured it would be good for our guys to become familiar with it.

We set it up a little differently. AJ (Johnson) had been going good and we figured that they react to his movement on the court. They switched everything and got crossed up. Jack got open and laid the ball in.

When we heard it, listening to TV, we scratched our heads and said has anybody heard of this definition before, because it was something new to us. It wasn't our business to know this stuff, working with the commission's definition, ...

I thought, 'well might as well do it,' even though I don't know how to run it. We were good buddies and figured we'd do it together. It's easier to do it with two people.

I thought that we had a very good effort today. We knew coming in that Notre Dame would get its share of penalties. And, because our power play has been so effective this year (a close to 50-percent completion rate), we figured that we'd get some goals that way. But, again, it goes back to the bounces and the luck. We need to find a little.
