The fire hurt us more than we thought. It's just nothing without that beautiful structure out front.

Michael is tired right now and is taking some time off. We've offered him his own business with the fuchsias, and he may decide to do that. He's been with us for 30 years, so he's like family.

Some people have gotten mad that we're closing, real mad. But most are just sorry that we're leaving. It's been a place of tranquillity for so many years. Even if they didn't buy anything, people just came here to feel good.

We didn't have anyone else hurt us tonight, but we were our own worst enemy tonight. I thought we played scared tonight. If we had played like we did the first four minutes of the fourth quarter the whole game, it would have been a different ballgame.

I thought West Florida wanted it more than we did tonight. They hurt us in transition, killed us on the offensive glass. They deserved to win.

They were pretty good. Their size was a little bigger than I thought. It hurt us inside. Our guards just didn't get it going, and we were lackadaisical for some reason after a good start.
