Billy Kennedy Quotations

Get past all the emotions that come along with the experience and get to the important stuff. Recognize what it is that you want, put a game plan together and take those steps to making a quality choice.

The good thing about competing at the NCAA Division I Level is that identifying recruits is usually a pretty easy thing for us to do. Most of the time, the type of kids we recruit are identified early in their high school careers by many college programs.

It is hard for an athlete to standout through an email, especially when his email gets mixed in with the emails coming from recruits that think they can play somewhere they really can't. That makes filtering through recruit emails an almost impossible task.

The student-athlete should control everything that happens. From figuring out what kind of a degree they want to what type of a program they want to play for, they should control it all.

The college recruiting process shouldn't be about how many schools have interest in you or how many offers you get, it should be about you finding the right school.

Social media has a way of revealing someone and can be very telling.

College recruiting is a business and I would really tell parents and athletes, alike, to treat it as such.

I'm here to win. I know that, I understand that, and I'm excited about the expectations and the vision of this University. It also meets the vision I have for what I want to do and accomplish here at Murray State University.

I'm so excited to be here at Murray State. For me, the biggest attraction of all is how the fans and students of Murray State are basketball crazy. I'm looking forward to experiencing it and continuing the great Racer tradition. I'm used to coming into a program and turning it around. This is one that I need to keep going and take it another step further.

By taking a business-like approach, the student-athletes and their parents will be in control of the outcome and that's how it should be.
