Joe Coleman Quotations

No one really gave us much of a chance. But it's been a magical season thus far. I told my kids that they had nothing to lose.

We have to find a go-to guy. Our guys play hard, but we need to find somebody we can count on in the clutch. We don't have any stars, so somebody has to step it up.

I thought Isaac did a good job. He pulls the ball out when it needs to be pulled out, and he goes when we need to go. He's been doing that for three years now. Kid's great.

This is the most physical staff I've had in seven years.

This 16-team tournament gave us a chance. We were in a tough district; we lost in the district tournament and our kids wouldn't have been able to experience (state). But because of this, we have a second life. Hey, we're thrilled. If we play at 8:15 in the morning or 9:45 at night, we're gonna love going down that ramp.

We received a sample lamp several years ago at a TRIAD meeting. We started looking into the price but it was prohibitive so we didn't pursue it. Late last year we decided to get the police department and Echo Hose Ambulance involved so we could get the program started.

He made a great play and a great basket. That's what athletes do.

That was the longest minute of my life. Adrian did a great job of coaching in the last stretch. We were just lucky to have the ball at the end.

He's a great kid. I'm really happy for him. He's been a senior leader all year for us.

He just started putting it all together. For them, it's a puzzle sometimes and he had to get the pieces and put them in the right place, and he's very close to completing the puzzle.
