The game was still reachable. We didn't do a good job defensively. We just have to keep rolling and keep our momentum.

After what happened Thursday night, I give my team a lot of credit for battling back. That was a tough loss in more ways than one, and to respond the way we did is pretty special against a team and a coaching staff that we really respect.

I was proud of (Justin's) competitive spirit and character. A lot of programs would give up but we kept up until the end. We just came out on the short end.

I told Justin this was his best outing of the year. We didn't catch two balls in left field that we expect to be caught. But (Cassel) has just been snake-bit in the first. If he can fix that, he's on a roll.

I'm sure a lot of people are questioning that, but I want him for the whole run. I don't want to do anything to him now to hurt him.

In a country with an overabundance of food, no one should go hungry because of a lack of funds or technical and professional knowledge. We have the food, and we have the networks; we now need to support the providers.
