would not be a step forward. At best it would be a step sideways.

When I met with the team I told them this is not a step back or even a step sideways – this is a step forward for the program. Naturally I've modeled a lot of my style from Coach Brose because I am a product of this system. I'm excited to see what we can do and see how the girls respond. I think we all have that competitive fire and I'm anxious to see what we can do with it.

not a panacea, but it's a giant step forward.

The difference between a hero and a coward is one step sideways.

They really are acting out of patriotism. This is not fun for them. They're reluctant to step forward in this way and for good reason. ... They believe that Rumsfeld is endangering the course of U.S. foreign policy.

It could have gone further. They've made a step forward, but it's not a giant step. The question is whether they're able to alter conduct. Time will tell.
