"It was a great environment, it was an intense match, it was really fun to be a part of." - Kevin Hambly on Illinois' first win in Happy Valley since "My So-Called Life" was still on TV.

"We gave them twice as many points as they earned. What's the positive here? What am I looking for?" - Russ Rose, obviously not agreeing with Hambly's sunny outlook.

"They don't know what they need to do. We keep telling them the same thing. I can't do it for them. I'm tired of telling them the same thing. I'm sure they're tired of what I have to say." - More from Russ. 100 bucks to anyone brave enough to ask Russ, "Hey what do I need to do?" this week.

"Volleyball Overcomes New Mexico in Five Sets" - goaztecs.com. C'mon, headline writer! You didn't even try.

Was that so hard?

"One of (Stephanie Ferrel's) best shots today was not the 60 mph swing. It was the off-speed kill to the deep corner." - Mary Wise. So we're talking, what, the school zone-approved 25 mph or...?

"I just kind of rolled (my ankle) a little bit. I have had a lot of history with this ankle." - Stephanie Ferrell. Well, yeah. It's been with you your whole life, so...

"Well as a kid I would have said Bill Pullman." - Duke's Kayla Kirk when asked who her dream date would be. Bill. Pullman. And what young kid wouldn't swoon over his performances in "Casper" and "Mr. Wrong."
