Kerwin Forges Quotations

When we started helping those people out, it made our hearts bigger.

On Feb. 23, we're going to start moving ahead on plans for a new field house. We're growing so rapidly that we have to turn our weight room into new classrooms. And as far as football goes, right now we can only seat about 1,000 people. We had 5-6,000 at our playoff games over at West Port High, so obviously the demand is there and we want to accommodate everyone.

He's been a hot coach lately, so his name has been out there on the coaching scene for the vacancies. But I was a little surprised.

Our league is pretty deep. Everybody's got a good team. Everybody plays hard. It comes down to who plays the hardest.

We do what we do best. We pressed and wore 'em down and started pounding the ball inside.

We play math games, I help them with their assignments, and we just do math for about an hour. They're high-energy. They pick things up pretty quickly once you explain it to them.

We hurried a little bit and turned the ball over more than we're used to. Their defense was more aggressive.

There's no panic. There's never any panic. We know we can always fight back.

I used to be able to play in the game, but now with my age I just sit back and coach.

I've seen a lot of quarterbacks in my time, and he's got as good a release as anybody I've seen. He throws a beautiful ball. He has natural instincts, a presence in the pocket. He has unbelievable physical ability, a great arm.

Coach Mike deserves it. He's the hardest-working coach in college basketball, probably the world. He instilled in us that you should always do things the right way. He made us better people.

It's no secret that it takes a lot of money to provide a good education. We're raising money for computers, buses, vans, a bit of everything. Tuition is $6,000, but it costs about $8,000 to educate each student. That's where the fundraising comes in.

It made it hard to practice sometimes. We helped out and did everything we could. It made us a tougher team. Going through that time made all of our hearts bigger.

It's going to be a special night. We're hoping to pack the gym.

Everyone came out and supported us 100 percent throughout the whole conference and the NCAA conference. The more support we have, the better we play.

I practice that - taking one dribble, pulling up, elevating and shooting. You've just got to keep working at it.

Cliff's been our go-to guy all year. He missed two free throws. Stuff happens. We should have won the game before that.
