People said stuff, other people wrote it down

“You win some, you lose some, and you got to play another one.” - Jeff Stork, after saying volleyball was 2 out of 3, then saying it was 3 out of 5, quickly becoming my favorite coach to quote.

"I don’t care if it’s rock throwing, I want to beat you at it." - UTEP's Kelsey Moore, who was named Miss Texas earlier this fall. Seems like a nice enough person, just...keep her away from the rocks.

"Exactly one year ago, the UW-Milwaukee volleyball team beat Cleveland State in the Horizon League Tournament, capping off a surprising season for a relatively very youthful group of girls." - The UWM Post. "Relatively very youthful"? What a sort of extremely unique way of describing something.

“I think that solidified it. I felt like if we just win one of the next four … we can assume that we’re in." - Dave Rubio commenting on his team's chance at an at-large tournament bid, thereby jinxing any chance at said bid.

"I said after game two, 'isn't volleyball funny?'" - Rice head coach Genny Volpe on her team's game two comeback against Tulsa from 9-19 to win it 25-23. Ed Allen fails to see the humor.

"We talk a lot about the bullet on our back, but truly, this is what it's all about." - Saint Louis' head coach Anne Kordes. Well no wonder they lost to Dayton: They had a bullet on their back. You can't expect a team to win when they've got lead stuck in 'em. Wait, what's that? Oh, I'm being told she meant to say "bullseye on our back." Well...that's different.
