Jim Kubinski Quotations

I feel really comfortable with the way the guys are playing ... I think it will give us a great shot.

Just the name Augusta brings to mind thoughts of championship golf. I feel we are ready to start playing our A-game, and what better place to do it than Augusta, Georgia.

Josh and Cole were the two best ball strikers out there this weekend.

I think it's a great golf course. It's a great test of golf for us.

I think we have a chance to be a top-20 team this year if things go well for us.

I think they realize now that they can compete against the best, and that's something that I don't think they necessarily had before last spring and before this past summer.

With the field coming, we got a lot of good teams playing there. I think you're going to have to shoot some good numbers, you're not going to be able to just kind of put it in cruise control. We're going to have to play hard, and we're going to have to play well.

We were just out of the top four teams last year. We want to take the next step this year.

We had some stretches were we didn't play our A-game. I think we finally were able to play our best golf in the Big East championship, and hopefully we can keep that going.

Beating Louisville was the best part of the weekend. They are going to be our top competition for the Big East Championship, so it was nice to finish better than them.

After the first day, we knew we had to get out to a strong start and make some birdies. Since it was team golf, the 12-stroke margin didn't seem as daunting. We only had to make up three shots a person instead of 12.

They are not selfish in the least bit; they're just very team-oriented.

They've kind of put their own individual aspirations aside and in some cases made some sacrifices.

I'm going to approach it as business as usual. We can't have any distractions, and I think that would be kind of a distraction. We're just going to go there with business as usual.

He's really come into his own and definitely had a breakout week last week.

These are four guys who have been through the wars.
