Bedrooms Quotes
Even the smaller bedrooms, which will be presumably for the freshmen and sophomore suites, will be large enough so that all the University-provided furniture will fit in them. The junior/senior bedrooms will be large enough so that you can put all the University-provided furniture on the floor with bunked beds and still have a living room to have social furniture in.

Behind Quotes
Did I think starting the season that I'd have three freshmen starting? No. ... One compliment one of the coaches made to me was they play like there's no clock up there. They just go 100 percent all the time. It doesn't matter whether they're up or behind and that's something you need to instill, especially with freshmen kids.
-
Conference Quotes
I've been saying this a lot lately, but our freshmen were terrific today for us. I would have liked to put some more runs on the board, but we'll take two conference wins any way we can get them. We got great pitching and played very good defensively and as a coach, that's what you're looking for. The hitting will come.
-
Asking Quotes
The scores may not be indicating it, but we are coming together and playing better. We've already seen tons of improvement. We're asking a lot of our sophomores and freshmen to play on the varsity level, but hopefully, they'll see what good volleyball is and what it takes to get there.
-
Beat Quotes
The team has looked pretty good. Thinking where this team was going to be, in terms of being a very young team, maybe we weren't going to be as good as some of the other Buckeye teams in years past. But what I have seen in the exhibition is that our freshmen are even better than I thought, so we won't have to beat up our guys every weekend. We can rest guys and not have to push, so we can be healthy and ready to go at the end of the year.
-
Counted Quotes
The success that he's already had, there's not a lot of freshmen that can do that and be counted on on the weekend. It's different to pitch on Tuesday than it is to pitch on the weekend where there's more pressure involved and more at stake and better competition. To do what he's done so far is pretty impressive.
-
Ashley Quotes
The thing that helps with (Taylor) is that she's played AAU ball, so she's not one of those raw freshmen coming in. She's 6-foot and athletic and she's learned to block shots well. She's had to be rushed into the flow, but she's what we lacked last year when we had to put (5-8 senior) Ashley Hood in the post.
-
Eighth Quotes
Of our 49 boys, 17 are freshmen, so we're still teaching some of the guys this isn't middle school anymore. Some of the freshmen are helping in relays and others are challenging in open events. Six or seven will make an immediate impact. We're talking about kids that maybe lost one meet in seventh and eighth grade, so they're good athletes.
-
Coach Quotes
Coach Sue found a mission statement that we wrote as freshmen and it was pretty cool looking back on what it said. It was about committing to Florida State and making a difference during our four years here. It is cool to look back and see that we were the ones that really wanted to take Florida State to the next level and to see that what we wrote, we actually followed through with.
-
Added Quotes
As a team we are feeling very confident in our returning group. Our four freshmen coming in bring a lot, adding into a team that's had one of the best performances we have ever had. We return all of our outfielders and pitchers and have added in some great talent. I think we have put a mix together that will be very exciting and dynamic to watch.
-
Against Quotes
As a captain me, Sean and Chris had been on the team since we were freshmen so we knew the role we had to play as leaders on the team. If things were down, we had to pull the rest of the team out of the troubles. Knowing we had been there for four years we were used to the practices, going to the tournament and the difference between playing against rivals.
-
Against Quotes
That's what we're trying to tell them (that they're are playing very hard). They're freshmen and sophomores playing against juniors and seniors. I do think the effort is there and they are coming along. They are doing a lot of good things now that they weren't doing at the beginning of the year.
-
Adjust Quotes
You never know when your freshmen come in how hard they're going work, how they're going to adjust to bigger, quicker players. His work ethic was something I thought was really good and it's far surpassed even what I thought. He's a phenomenally gifted kid who wants to get better, who treats every play like the last and you don't find many freshmen who do it like that.
-
Bit Quotes
They've been your typical freshmen real up and down. When we brought them in we knew they could shoot. They struggled a bit with the transition from the high school to the college play. They've been up and down. They're going to be good players for us, and right now they're giving us some minutes off the bench.
-
Bit Quotes
They know so much about the other teams. They don't know anything about themselves, about where they fit in. I talked to them about it a little bit yesterday. I said the freshmen were going to be sick of hearing about this team from me because what they did in this regular season was incredible ... But I don't think they realize where they fit.
-
Confidence Quotes
They are a whole different team, ... with Brodie running the show than they were a year ago. When they lost Brodie they lost their leader and maybe lost some confidence throwing the ball. But obviously this year they've opened their offense up. They are taking their shots deep. Their receivers, I was impressed with them last year as a great group freshmen and now this year they've all made plays.
-
Bad Quotes
There were a lot of people saying a lot of bad things when I came in, like 'Why are you going there?' and 'I feel sorry for you, Joe doesn't know how to coach,' but I did my research. I think the group of freshmen that came in, we were mature enough that we wouldn't be looked upon as freshmen.
-
Almost Quotes
It wasn't so much one game or one turning point. It's losing 11 seniors last year. We had 13 new faces. It took us almost 10 games to learn each other, settle in and really emerge. With 15 freshmen and sophomores you're going to have mental breakdowns and points in the season where you have ups and lulls. That's what we were going through.
