R. Robinson Staff Quotations

If we didn't feel confident...we wouldn't be going through this. We have seven or eight full-time people on staff this year with no guaranteed revenue coming in. (But) I don't want to be so overconfident or arrogant that we think it's a done deal - we're going to have a really tough six months ahead of us.

A lot of very cool items came in. It was a tremendous effort. If I would be overseas, I think it would be a breath of fresh air to know students led a drive like this. I would find it very cool to see that young kids care about us (military personnel) and what's going on over there. The staff really got behind it, too. Just like me, they commended the students, especially the student council for leading the project.

It's not a good feeling, but at the same time, our staff worked hard and we left nothing on the table. Unfortunately, the numbers, while strong, were not where they needed to be.

This is a very demanding position, and at 59, I don't have the energy to do it the way it needs to be done anymore. I think this coaching staff represented the school well for five good years.
