Platt High School is a very good and very well-coached basketball team. For our kids to stay with them for as long as they did is a major accomplishment for them and something to look forward to for next year.

There aren't even truant officers any more. I deal with kids that don't come to school and why (they don't). It has a lot to do with family problems. That is the biggest change. The counselor must find out how to solve the problem. The truancy officer must connect with the community and understand family problems.

A lot of high school kids, even middle school kids, don't even think of oral sex as sex.

(Fighting) is not high school basketball. Officials from Auburn and Carver, you need to get control of your kids or we'll clear this place out.

I was hoping we could cut it to eight and call timeout and set up the press. Just to see what would have happened.

I think our team played very well. We executed better than we've executed all year.
