I'd like to have it. I know it doesn't mean much but it's nice to tell recruits.

I have the difficulty and luxury of having five guys who could play one through five in the lineup. But it is obviously an important decision.

The competition is going to move up drastically, so we need to make improvements. Teams are going to test us a lot more, so we'll have to respond.

We're not where we need to be as a team yet. But as the season progresses, we'll get better and hopefully make a run at the NCAA title.

The first day is always scary. But I felt like we played well.

We have to get a lot better at doubles. Particularly, we have to get more aggressive there.

For us, I don't believe Florida has ever been ranked No.1 as a team, and I know I've never had a chance to coach a team, even for a week, a team that's been No. 1. I'd like to have that. I know it doesn't mean much, but it's good to send to recruits.

Again this year, we're one of five teams that have a good chance (of winning it all) and we're happy with that.

We aren't playing anywhere near the level we should be. I'd like to see greater teamwork, improvement in our fitness level and in our ability to create easy winners.
