J. Lewis Quotations

Scott is a great leader and teammate. He is focused and hard-working, but also genuinely nice and fun to be around.

Near the end of the year, we always run short.

People who want to go shouldn't be frightened off by difficulties of getting tickets or the challenges of finding accommodations.

It basically came down to us not doing a very good job of getting off the field early on,

I think a lot of our tenants have concerns about the size (of the proposed student apartment complex). They just feel caged in.

Last year, I think we were too confident. We were 23-1 entering the tournament and we just thought we were unbeatable. We know every team is equal, and we have to come out and play each team as if they are the toughest in the state.

I thought we were. But as a player, you take what's called and do your best. I thought we had them. I thought we had a great game plan and great execution. We just gave it up at the end.

Mostly water bottles. I thought they were going to start shooting before we got out of there.

You bet. We own the Titans. I remember the good old days when I would blow up Eddie George with a big hit. Now, they've got another running back with two first names, Travis Henry, whom I plan on blowing up in the same manner.

You cannot deny this valley is booming, ... There?s a demand for services from the good folks and a demand for law enforcement from the bad folks.

What Coach Reid does is just try and share his confidence, ... He says, 'Hey, we got it started. Let's keep it going.' That's where our sights are.

Everything we've done has been put together that way,

The shortfall is in billions of dollars, ... It is a catastrophe for Africa if the proposals that come from the grassroots of countries are not funded.

This is going to go forward whether the casino happens or not.

This brought back some good memories. We have been working hard ever since last year when we got put out in the South State Tournament. Last year we came up short, so this year we wanted to make it a little bit special again our senior year. We wanted to come out and make a statement.

It's a tough decision. It should be. A lot is determined how we practice during the week,

It was the best four years of my life. These guys will always be my friends.

It's an ordeal no one should have to go through.

Each of these cases is a bit different, but they all come down to the intersection of capitalism and democracy and being lavishly wooed and courted by powerful interests and being susceptible to those interests.

The lack of a guy doing his job.

I don't think it does, ... We prepare to play the Pittsburgh Steelers. I've coached there and coached against them for a number of years, and it doesn't change.

Chad's a kid who is really maturing, ... I said to him, 'You don't need to draw attention to yourself by making statements like that. What you're doing on the field is drawing enough attention.' But hey, we'll grow from that.

He pushed very hard to get this done.
