“When a mature and able manager feels bored, he should seriously consider changing jobs, changing companies or simply retiring. It is not fair to anyone for half a leader to hold a full-time leadership job.”

“Man, that was fun to watch. Isaiah was our leader tonight. Everybody knew what was going to happen, but he has ice water in his veins. I couldn't be prouder of the leadership Isaiah displayed tonight.”

“He has the skills, the intelligence, the leadership ability. You put all those things together and you've got a pretty good basketball player. He's such a competitor and he's going to get better and better.”

“The last three years we've been really close to making the playoffs, and this year we've found an offense that we haven't had before. Plus, we have some really great senior leadership.”

“It was a good game, tough loss for us. Our senior leadership really stepped up for us in the second half. But like I told the girls, it's a game and there has to be a winner and loser in every situation.”

“They have responded extremely well to all the pressure of the playoffs. Our seniors are doing a great job of providing solid leadership for our younger players. It seems like everybody has turned it up a bit.”
