Tommy Bleeker

MTSU brings a different style of play. They are taller than most teams we play so we have to adjust the timing on our block and we need to overemphasize for their height when we attack. If we attack at the same height we usually do, it isn't going to be pretty.

We've been playing teams that are taller than us all the time, and we've been winning. We just have to find our niche and get some confidence. If their shooters aren't on from the outside, then I think we have a chance.

Amy Froess

That's our key, our defense. We may give up some easy ones to taller teams, but we'll also create a lot of opportunities with our speed. Today was no different. Our defense was OK in the first half but we really picked it up after halftime.

Austin Peebles

Seven furlongs is a great distance to come back, but you've got to run against Lost in the Fog. On the other hand, the mile-and-a-quarter Travers, I don't think the competition is as good as Lost in the Fog, but that mile and a quarter - he hasn't run in four months. He's an amazing horse. He's developed; he's gotten taller and longer. He's got a lot of ability. Hopefully, .

Nick Zito

She plays a lot taller than 5-10.

Tom Vielhak

They are five times taller than our church steeples.

Rob Brown

Our entire front row is (6-foot-2 or taller), and we put up a huge block against everybody. Most of the time when we block right, they're not going to be able to get it over with authority. It's going to be a roll shot or a tip to the corner. You've got to have guys back there who are on the same page and ready to get the ball back to the setter.

He's 6-3, 300 pounds. I'm 5-10, 200 pounds. People always ask 'How's your brother so big and you're so small?' He ate a lot more than me, but that won't make you taller.

Fred Amey

Some of the girls are taller than me and have more muscles than me, but that just makes me run harder.

Sean Astin

There were 58 cards here, so I guess our odds were one-in-58. But really, it was a lot taller.

There are guys out here that are older, younger, shorter, taller, than me. But we all get a chance to play.

Joel Mays

I'm not bald... I'm just taller than my hair.

Clive Anderson

Lee is a physical team. They have four players 6-4 or taller and they push you off your blocks and keep you from setting up your shots. You have to shoot well against them, because they play well defensively and you won't get many shots.

Tim Martin

It was to set a tone, ... Just because the average age on our team is 10 years older, just because they're 100 pounds bigger and a foot taller, we would not be the demure members of Congress. We would actually be aggressive.

Patrick Mchenry

There's no doubt we can walk a little taller right now. We know that it's going to be podium or bust at the Olympics so we have top three on our mind.

Allison Forsyth

Fort Scott is so quick that when you go inside, you have to put the shot up quick. They want you to make a bounce pass inside because they are shorter than us and they can get to the ball. The match-up wasn't easy for us tonight but it wasn't easy for them either because we're taller.

Becky Carlson

We know that children who are overweight have advanced bone development -- they grow faster in all ways, and they are usually taller than their non-overweight peers. That same sort of growth promotion could be linked to the early onset of the maturational change.

Kirk Shelmerdine

Again, we didn't execute very well early and that frustrates me. It was just a matter of having more talent, being taller. Marvin's kids played real hard. It wasn't lack of effort on their part.

Brian Grun

They are a tough team, much taller than we are, and they won probably 80 percent of the balls. I think we got a little flat in the second half.

Paul has struggled against taller people at times throughout his career, including tonight. Size bothers him unless we can pull him out. ... We were not making shots, particularly early and now he's having to score over bigger people. They did an outstanding job.

Keith Richard

It's a great fit for him. He got an opportunity in Green Bay last year and he stepped up like no other guy did for the Packers. Robert Ferguson didn't step up like Antonio did. The new coaching staff said they liked him and his heart but that he didn't fit into the system that (head coach) Mike McCarthy runs because he's not a taller receiver.

Mark Mersel

Scott went to the bucket hard all night against the taller Wolves.

Jim Arendt

Oklahoma had some big bodies, athletic guys. So does Florida, the same with Memphis and Wisconsin this year. They had a lot of big bodies. It's just another assignment for me. You can't take anybody lightly. ... (But) just because they are taller doesn't mean they are going to get every rebound.

Adrian Tigert

There are some mature birds that have short beards from a lack of melanin that makes the beard weak and it will break. The best method is to wait and see the bird in full strut. If his fan (tail feathers) form an even-edged circle, then he's mature. If there are shorter feathers on the edges of the fan with taller feathers in the middle, then it's a jake.

James Austin

My ground strokes are my strength. I rely on them to produce some winners and some errors by the other player. I like coming into the net since I'm taller. But I have to work on my volleys.

Kyle Maclelland

Spittle is our unquestioned leader. And I think we're a little more physical than they are and a little taller. Hopefully, we can use that to block some balls.

She never played without her back to the basket as a kid growing up because she was always taller, but now she's bringing the ball up the floor and I don't think it's phased her a bit. Her athletic ability is what carries her through.

Amber Benson

On love rival Isabelle Adjani - 'I'm eight years younger, 3 inches taller and I've got boobs!

With so many teams going to taller receivers, Ashton physically has a chance to compete with those guys because of his size and athletic ability. He has the hips, the footwork and the flexibility that you look for in smaller corners, but he's big and physical.

Kyle Rice

We've played against taller girls all year and we've been fine. But we knew they'd be tough.

Kristina Schuster

I think our kids did a good job (against Bogan). He's a big guy -- he's bigger than us, taller than us, and our kids battled. That's all I can ask. He's hard to block off.

Joe Shoemaker

The nice thing about blazers is that they can accentuate all body types, whether you are a little portly, taller, or even if you are short. But it is really important to get a jacket that fits well.

If he had been a bit taller, we would have won it.

Paul Fairclough

These are a lot taller students than I have had. I hope by the end of the year no one's taller than me.

He was all arms and legs. One thing we all saw in him and admired was his desire, and it proved out. He broke in well as a freshman, and that's not always easy to do when you're two feet taller than everyone else.

Rod Dedeaux

We turned the ball over a ton. But a big reason for that was their guards are 4-5 inches taller than ours and we often had to try to throw the ball over the top to try and get it inside.

Nick Mahalko

It was amazing. You guys show that they can be a foot taller, and it doesn't matter. It's the mentality.

Joe Sigrist

The taller that storm is, the more air that is rushing up. And as that air rushes up into the storm, it is making those winds turn with height, and that spinning is what causes the tornado vortex that drops down out of the cloud.

Nezette Rydell

Being taller, I can contact the ball at its highest point and he can hit it at its highest point. It makes our offense that much more fluid.

Brian Beckwith

We have to learn how to cope with the physical play and against people who will be taller and bigger than we are. We have to put a body on a body to keep teams from hurting us on the offensive boards. We can learn from this game and get better.

Tim Mccutchen

The difference is that the girls are bigger, stronger and faster. The guards are definitely taller. These are some of the top recruits in the county.

We're going to look at him. He'll be one of the taller kids in school, and he has a lot of skills. I'm looking forward to having him come in and contribute.

For some reason, post players think they can beat me and maybe get overconfident. I am squirmy. I can reach up and grab things that taller players can't.

Essie Baird

We supported East River Science Park. We supported the United Nations tower. We're not an anti-development board. But we do want planning input. We don't look kindly on commercial, nor on buildings taller than the U.N. Secretariat.

Edward Rubin
