“... while we flatter ourselves that things remain the same, they are changing under our very eyes from year to year, from day to day.”
Charlotte Perkins Gilman
“He that loves to be flattered is worthy o' the flatterer.”
William Shakespeare
“But when I tell him he hates flatterers, He says he does, being then most flattered”
“Some folks are continually making changes. I flatter myself that I like new ventures and new experiences. But when it comes to fundamentals I believe in finding the right foundations and building on them. I'm a poor changer.”
William Danforth
“We're flattered to be picked as high as fifth, but we lost our top three players from last year and I'm not sure that all of the coaches are aware of that. I believe that our competitiveness will allow us to finish near the top half of the conference but every match for us will be a grind. Whether we're playing the team picked first or picked ninth - we'll have to show up and fight our hearts out in order to have a chance to win.”
Michael Hunt
“The flattering part of it is it seems like every year it takes place. That means our program is really progressing every year. To me, that's what it's all about. I'm the head coach here, and that's what I'm dealing with right now.”
Mike Anderson
“I'm flattered to be a finalist. For a first-year coach it doesn't get any better than that. But Tom Higgins took a team that hadn't made the playoffs for the last few years and led them to a playoff berth and second place in the West.”
