“He's doing awfully well. He's won on turf, so we think he'll like the track a lot. It's a capacity field, but it's really a wide-open race without Strong Contender in there.”
Bill Farish
“We talked. But they didn't think I could hold up on the field turf, that's really what it came down to. With an injury like this, it's not ideal playing on an artificial turf surface.”
Frank Thomas
“There are digital signals coming over into what they perceive as kind of their turf. I don't think they want somebody else to move into their turf without their having a piece of it.”
David Londoner
“I think that was a significant step because the old turf was hard and it was being used against us in recruiting. Coaches from other schools were saying, 'You don't want to go there and play on that surface because it's dangerous and you might get hurt.' Well, that issue has been eliminated. This stuff is the closest thing to grass.”
Daryl Gross
“We weren't worried about going from turf to dirt. He runs well on the main track and loves the distance of a mile and an eighth.”
Al Stall
“When you are getting pounded in the turf, I think you will throw it high. That is my department and we will get it fixed.”
Dave Ewart
“It is a way of defining turf-a sonic turf.”
