“He's a senior and he didn't want to quit. Forrest plays hard. A lot of people don't know he has had a bad knee all year ... He never sat out a practice, never sat out a game. He's a tough-nosed player. He's been a three-year starter. We're definitely going to miss his leadership out there.”
“It's going to be a lot easier for him to start his career here with the guys that we have and the leadership that we have. I started my career here with the worst team in the league and didn't have a lot of support, but he's in a different situation. He's going to have a chance to learn very quickly and win very quickly, which is great for a young guy.”
“He is a tremendous leader to this team and his work ethic is outstanding. He is real outgoing and always tries to help others whenever possible. He has definite leadership skills. He might see something that I don't see in the (wrestling) room, and I respect his opinion. That's just part of our relationship. We work well together.”
“With his experience at GE, AT&T, The Home Depot and Motorola, Dennis brings to Nortel an impeccable business pedigree.

Dennis will play a key role in driving the cultural and business transformation at Nortel that will be essential to the Company's future success.”
“Gerri's track record of success in creating value in early stage technology companies makes her a great addition to the Ballard Board.

“Joe will add proven security and vertical market experience to our board. We look forward to benefiting from his track record for establishing technology leadership and growing global brands. Joe joins our board at an important time as we integrate new technology advancements to meet increasing demand for innovative video monitoring solutions for business and residential environments.”
“[Though other teams have expressed doubts about Miller's leadership, saying he was too quiet and passive during his season in L.A., the Nuggets are confident they have the right man.] Andre is a hungry, driven young man who wants a team that plays with discipline and unselfishness, ... He wants what we have, and we want what he has.”
“It's been a huge change. Last year, I was just trying to play and get as many minutes as I could. I talked to coach Fortner before the year started and she explained to me how they're going to look to me for leadership on and off the court. It's been a huge transition, but it's one I'm willing to step up and take.”
“She's been the type player that she'll leave you. She'll leave you in the tracks. There are times when she gets frustrated because maybe there might be a game where the rest of my team is not clicking. But most of the time we've been able to click with her. This type of leadership has sparked the other girls to try to at least step up and play with her.”
“We are excited to welcome Tom to our team. Tom has spent the past six years with two of the leading professional organizations involved in journalism training and research -- the Committee of Concerned Journalists (CCJ) and the Project for Excellence in Journalism (PEJ). NLGJA is looking forward to his leadership in helping the industry recognize that fair and accurate coverage of LGBT issues is at the core of good journalism.”
