That one hurt for a long time, ... It made me, over the course of that summer, sit back, try to investigate myself, try to see if there was something I was doing wrong, see if my goals were right. At that time, I decided my new No. 1 goal was going to be live long enough to coach my grandchildren.

Fourteen years ago I thought it was neat to win this award, and now I'm so much more appreciative of it. From the first day of practice this team was fun to coach yet they were focused on what they had to do.

It's not the most pleasant thing for a coach when your point guard gets his third foul with .1 seconds left in the first half.

I think this team has done something that every coach wants to do, and that is gotten better as the season has gone along. They've put the effort and the concentration in to make that happen.

I never try to have expectations, I always have hopes. My hopes are always high. I feel very fortunate to coach a wonderful group of kids.

Hey guys, the head coach of the school is right over here.
