Steve Kerr (noted Univ of Arizona alum) on Randy Bennett taking Arizona State coaching job: “I imagine it’s something different, a life change, and it makes some sense — get re-energized and try something new. I haven’t spoken with him yet, nor will I because I hate ASU.”
Thought this was awesome from Tom Izzo today. He was asked his secret to still being so “invigorated” as a coach.
“When you get to share a moment with guys that stuck with you and you stuck with them… that’s the joy I get out of coaching.”
@parrotheadvol@BleacherReport Finally, someone with sense. I also think he should position himself closer to one of the officials on his side of the court.
Santa Clara's HC Herb Sendek appeared to signal for a timeout before Kentucky's 3-pointer that would force overtime 😳
Santa Clara would lose to Kentucky in OT, 89-84
Herb Sendek with a nice answer on the reflection now and later on for this Santa Clara team
"Sports is a tremendous vessel to enjoy relationships. My father was able to be in the stands with other family members, the relationships you have with your staff. The game is a vessel to accomplish that and that's what you take away. Any season, even ones that you don't win as many, they have the same outcome ultimately."
Sixteen years ago, one man stood alone on a grassy hill at a music festival in Washington State, USA, and started dancing by himself. People glanced over and looked away. Some laughed. His roommate leaned in and warned him people were filming him.
He did not stop.
Then one stranger got up and joined him.
Then another.
Then the hillside tipped. Within minutes, hundreds of people were sprinting from across the field to be part of something that, thirty seconds earlier, had been one man being laughed at in a field.
Someone filming from higher up the hill said quietly: "See what one man can do. One man can change the world."
The clip spread across the internet in 2009. Entrepreneur Derek Sivers played it at a TED conference to explain how movements actually begin. Not with the first person brave enough to start, he argued, but with the first person willing to join them.
Collin Wynter, the man dancing alone, later said he had no idea he had done anything special. He was just tired of watching everyone sit still.
James Hetfield's response to this question is brilliant.
Being and staying grateful for what you have is what makes you feel comfortable in all parts of your life.

Collins made a plea to the administration regarding the upcoming search for Northwestern's next president.
"If you're at a high level academic school and you strive to have the best undergraduate experience and the best hospital and Kellogg School of Business and all these graduate programs...why wouldn't we also strive to be the best at athletics."
"I'm anxious to get a new president, to get together and hopefully have a commitment to saying: You know what, we want to do this."
For years, the @boilerball mantra was so simple in phrase, but more difficult to replicate. “Play Hard” has been stamped on shorts at Purdue for years. Most significant difference tonight in half one, INTENSITY AND PURPOSE!!! In other words, Play Hard, Always. It’s now or never.
Wayne Tinkle addressing the end of his time at OSU:
"We had opportunities to go elsewhere from Montana and from Oregon State, but the authenticity of the fanbase, of the institution, the supporters, that's what had us... I got a ton more emails today. Just keep being Oregon State. It'll always be a special place... I know there's a lot of places what we do, how we do it, and what it leads to so I'm not done by a long shot."
Matt Painter: “This is on me.. us being 6-4 at home. You can talk til you’re blue in the face, I can talk basketball all day long with you. But you gotta figure it out about your team and I haven’t done a good job with that. I own that, more than anything.”
