He presented a fair evaluation of what they were doing and didn't hype the story at all.
accepted bids early good run teams
I think teams accepted bids here because it makes sense to play good teams early in the season, ... It's being run in a classy, big-time way, which is really fun.
anybody bad career chance feeling knows ok point pressure team temper thinks wants win
I think there was a point in his career where that would have killed him. Now, I don't think he thinks about it too much. He wants it as bad as anybody and you don't temper that feeling by also being OK with where you are. His team knows how bad he wants to win and they probably have a better chance now because he doesn't put as much pressure on them as he used to.

asked chance coaches expect good knew listening next rate remember seat sitting talking team teams three tv
I wasn't used to doing TV interviews, and I remember sitting there listening to the other coaches being interviewed, ... I was in awe. I had a good seat because I was going to be next and they asked him how do you expect your team to do and how do you rate the teams. I remember the coach saying, 'There are three teams here with a chance to win.' I knew he had to be talking about our team as the team that didn't have a chance.

I think it's a good way for all four teams to start the year,

He's a good guy. Also, there's a respect thing. When you're young you want to get to know somebody like that because he already had the reputation of being a very good game coach.

I already knew it was going to be a tough day because I wasn't going to have my staff. I tried to have backup, but then my backup didn't show up.

She's a pretty remarkable athlete. Beyond her obvious talents - athletic, bright, very team oriented - the level of volleyball that she's played at brings maturity.
