Jeff Lyons Quotations

We started out a little flat, then kind of closed the gap, but they just kept coming at us with relentless pressure. We cut it back and they just roared right back They're just a very good team.

We were cold shooting and they really came at us with their pressure defense. They were aggressive, they kept the pressure on and that's why they are defending state champs.

I'm hoping we'll have this continual glide path of rates going up and everything comes into equilibrium nice and easy.

Most importantly, we managed our growth while still maintaining our high levels of customer service and satisfaction.

We had the judgment before they did the seizure.

Beyond that, there's very little I can say.

Customers really liked the idea of getting in on the ground floor of a new fund, especially funds that are managed by companies that have strong track records and good brands.

The big thing is you've got to accept what the market is, and make the most of it. It doesn't have anything to do with you personally; it has to do with the market.

They played well and we turned it over. I guess it was a combination of both. We didn't make shots and we got frustrated. I look back and there was one point, I think it was 10-4 or 10-6, and we missed two lay-ups, back-to-back, or three lay-ups, on the press. Then we got a little frustrated and it kind of snowballed. Overall, we just didn't play well in any facet of the game.

It was a good year for us (overall). We bounced back with our kids and I was proud of them.

Certainly there's a lot of competition. Just about every big financial services firm offers funds from various fund families.

All of our officers are trained for cross-gender supervision. They're expected to follow the rules when they do that.
