“This is a chance to get all the old-timers together and there is getting to be fewer of us every year. This is family ranching. It's still here, but it's getting harder because of the land prices and the taxes are too high to make a living with cattle.”
Charles Yates
“He's been so incredible and respectful of me being the old-timer. I'm a huge Kurt Busch fan and always will be.”
Mark Martin
“We, as old timers, feel like we're being used.”
Bob Kenney
“Be-bop of the '50s vintage as played by all the old-timers is great, but it's old and none of the new younger musicians are aware of it, really. In the back of my mind, I had thought about bringing it up to this time frame so it would attract the younger musicians.”
Carolyn Freeman
“The old-timers knew where their roots were, where they got their start and they like to interact with the people.”
Bill Diller
“On the men's side, we had two of our old-timers in Eric and Jesse competing with two of our freshmen, Brady and Trevor. Jesse competed unattached tonight. He's coming off a foot injury, and he's just starting to come back. Eric was just tired after football. We've been kind of slow with him coming back. But he will be there pretty quick. His mark tonight isn't much off his personal best right now. Brady and Trevor both have a couple of events they need to work on. Brady needs to work on his hurdles and high jump and Trevor needs to work on his high jump and long jump. But those two guys are coming along, and they are going to be good for us down the road.”
Jim Fuller
“It's an old coaching adage, something the old-timers used to tell all the young coaches. Do what teams do to you … press a pressing team … zone a zone team … run on a running team. If you take what is their strength and make it your own, you can get into their heads a little bit.”
Flip Saunders
