Ryan Leniski

UIS made some big shots. We had some turnovers that really hurt us were self-inflicted. Those were big plays. It's a championship game, and you make the big plays.

Give UIS credit, they did a nice job.

Guy Dupuis

Now I want to take a step forward in this next game by making smarter decisions.

Jose Pertierra

Obviously, we wanted a better effort and we wanted to play smarter. We need to go back to basics and play a simpler game. Frustration is a big factor and hard to control, but we have to find a way.

Martin Lapointe

Labels only confuse people. The smarter people recognize artists who transcend categories. But I always try to entertain. It's in my nature; writers are born to entertain. If that means working ostensibly within a genre, fine.

We just needed to play smarter and finish our shots.

Jim Beardmore

Phil Harding

If we want to win, we have to win the battle in front of the net. It's tough when a big guy is in front of the net, it's tough to defend it. It's all positioning. If you're smaller, you have to be a little smarter.

Michal Rozsival

I have to get a feel for knowing these guys. I'm not that brilliant of a coach, I'll be the first to tell you. But I know that the more I see someone, the smarter I'll get and the more I'll learn. I have six weeks to watch it live and in person. Tapes are tapes.

Chuck Hernandez

We talked about it at the half, that we had too many turnovers, that we need to be smarter with the ball. Not to be cautious, but be smarter with our passes and come hard to the ball.

Cathy Inglese

You could see obvious improvement. They're figuring each other out and the system. They're making smarter plays and better plays to make things click and work.

Matt Choman

With his wealth of experience, and the knowledge he's obviously accumulated through the years, Emmitt Smith would be a much smarter runner at this point of his career.

Al Michaels

A tool is there to assist, not do the job for you. Always remember that you are at least 50% smarter than computers. Computers know 'yes' and 'no,' but we know 'maybe.' We can evaluate more variables because there are only so many you can put into a tool.

John Pironti

I'm happy about those numbers, ... but the real determination is, what do we learn? Are we smarter when we do it next time?

Sean Elliott

Kids now are smarter than we were. They want the facts. They want to know what's happening. That's why being open and honest with them is so important.

Mark Rechtin

I think I have become a lot smarter. Each year, the more you see things, the smarter you get at recognizing defenses and what they are trying to do to you. How you can put yourself in position to make key blocks.

Kevin Boothe

The age on our team is perfect. When you're old, that experience comes in a lot. You're a little slower, but you're smarter too.

Charlie Large

Management wasn't going to give us back those people, so we needed to work smarter. We were scrambling to figure out how we could make it up and do this. We knew the potential for gain was there.

Kevin Lam

Everyone is learning how to be a little bit smarter. Of course, that's much easier said than done, but we're all really tightening our belts.

Pat Brown was praised as a great governor on infrastructure. Unfortunately, no one was thinking about ecological principles then. We dewatered rivers and harmed the environment. This time around, we must do a better job because we're a lot smarter than we were 40 years ago.

Bill Allayaud

Sale were smarter and sharper than us but they lacked our power.

Dean Ryan

I played much smarter on defense in the second half. It all came together for us.

Sarah Boothe

We had three or four kids that have played in two state tournaments now. That should hopefully help us out with the nerves a bit. We've got a little tournament experience so it isn't so new and we should be able to play a little smarter.

Doug Schauer

A couple of years ago, someone asked about a seven-and-a-half hour pre-game, I remember our executive producer said, 'If they can sell it, we can produce it,' ... Now we think it's smarter to tighten up the inventory, given [the] softness in the market place.

Lou D'ermilio

These centers have gotten smarter over the years. They are turning victories that would have just been a back-pay award into something more.

Jennifer Gordon

No question, these guys work hard every day in practice. They understand how I operate and how I work. Not at all do I question their work ethic. I just think we need to play a little smarter. And we've got to finish.

Alex Butler

She's a very mature filly and she's coming into her own now. She's a stronger, smarter, calmer filly than she was last year.

David Hofmans

I just knew I had to be smarter (on defense) and stop reaching.

Jessie Coiffard

We've been improving, and offensively, we've been playing a little smarter. Our blocking was definitely much better than the first time we played them.

Al Warden

He's a tough New Jersey guy. Those words mean something to him and people around him. By his force of will he has these guys playing much smarter. They are making fewer mistakes. And the offense has been completely different from a year ago with basically the same personnel. All of a sudden, guys who were invisible a year ago are making incredible plays.

Pat Haden

We were misled. It made us a little smarter for the next time.

Bob Hansen

With today's advanced technology, ad networks can be a lot smarter about how they deliver ad impressions than they were four to six years ago.

Rich Lefurgy

We all need to stay on alert, but without reaching a point where we judge people on appearance. We need to be smarter than that.

Imad Hamad

We had some talented kids take off. We also played a much smarter game in the second half and we also rebounded better against a much bigger team.

Nate Altenhofen

As a pitcher, I don't think I'm actually physically to the point I was [in 2003]. I'm a smarter pitcher now, which is what gets me by.
