“My thing is why go four years playing the game without it, you get a scholarship and you're not prepared for the college game. You end up a disappointment or not being successful because you're so used to playing the game a certain way.

Greg Mattison
“We all came here on scholarship — we're all Division I players. Before, when [non-starters] were in the game, they could just let the starters do their thing. But now everyone is stepping up and playing, and that's what we need.”
Samantha Stovall
“I've never promised a player or a parent a scholarship or a guaranteed playing position.”
Ray Willis
“There are not a lot of scholarship opportunities for those kids, because they don't have the grade-point average. I just want something good to come out of all this.”
Zyvonne Adams
“Scholarship reductions in any sport are not easy to accept.”
