Dave Smith Good Quotations

Most teams do that to us, but our girls do a good job getting position. We can get the ball in there and we made enough outside shots.

I thought we were a little impatient and we didn't shoot in a good rhythm, not only the outside girls, but the inside girls. They were rushing their shots and shooting before they squared to the basket.

We played some really good football in the first half. For the last 20 minutes, it was like the siege of the Alamo, but we defended really well.

We have two real strong players at No. 1 doubles. John Coleman is a freshman who is certainly a force. He's a powerful player. He has a serve over 100 miles an hour. I think they're going to be a good team.

Both teams were patient on offense but I thought we played good defense. We had trouble with the press in the second half and that magnified things.

We all have a tremendous amount of respect for her because we all know her. We're all pretty good friends with Felicia. She's a good kid.

Brett has been at (golf) for about three years and this is the first year for Brady. They like golf and they're pretty good at their age.

I'm pleased to see that. We had a bad game against a very good team. We learned a lesson. But if we get the chance to play them again, we know we can compete.

All the movies nominated for best picture deserve to be there. This year, they were especially good. More thought went into these movies. None are blockbusters; they weren't money-driven. It was good that independents won. It was just a nice change.

The last four weeks, it's been so much different. There seems to be more passion for the game on the girls' part. They've always worked hard in practice, but they seem to understand what we're trying to do. That makes me feel good for them.
