“We both are kind of hurt, we both have a little blood. It's funny. My dad told me you don't want to mess with an animal that's been hurt because they are dangerous. We need to get a win. We feel the pressure. We don't want to be in this position anymore.”

The way we accomplish that is by having the binary compatibles inside the server version all the way to the desktop, so no matter where the customer wants to use Linux, they're going to have one common code base.”

“I am proud of our guys and am starting to see some positive things. Our guys are still playing hard, despite our record. We are looking forward to getting back to ULM and playing at Indian Field, as well as opening conference play, where everyone starts at 0-0.”

“Right now, everybody's kind of locked in a little bit. They have a little routine that they're doing every day. If I have to say something I've just got to tell them, 'You're out in front,' or 'You're behind,' just little stuff. Right now those guys are in good position.”
