Mike Schofield Quotations

Folks don't suddenly become tax hawks once they get to Austin.

It's really a preview for next year to us. The whole group has shown improvement and I think we will be very competitive next year. This is a good opportunity for us to finish the spring on a strong note and see what they can do. We are very excited for the weekend.

But it didn't materially affect the race. You had to do your work on the ground regardless.

This is our final week of the spring season and the guys are working very hard. It's great to be able to finish off the spring against Air Force.

I've been up there and I've worked on this before. They don't have to wonder if I'm going to fight for lower taxes. (Murphy) had eight years to prove that he was a friend to taxpayers, and he hasn't done that.

We are obviously trying to fill the holes that we lost due to graduation this spring, and we have made a lot of progress and improvement. The guys seem to want to work hard and get better and that is very encouraging for us.
