We've had one of our best seasons in a number of years. It's a positive development for the boys' basketball program and for the school.

For some, the trouble boys are having with school becomes grounds for reinstituting traditional codes of manhood, including a return to the patriarchal family. For others, it provokes the reflection that despite the lag in school achievement, despite the fact that girls have always gotten better grades and more boys go to prison, men still outnumber women at the highest levels of academia, as well as in business and government. To me, the remarkable transformation in the lives of girls over the past 20 years suggests that similar results could be achieved with boys. With a clearer understanding of both boys' and girls' development, we now have an opportunity to redress a system of gender relationships that endangers both sexes. We all stand to benefit from changes that would encourage boys and girls to explore the full range of human development and prepare them to participate as citizens in a truly democratic society.

We appreciate the hard work and efforts that Rich and Greg have extended on behalf of this program over the past seven years. With 46 wins in the last two seasons and six straight winning seasons, they have contributed to a lot of the successes we have enjoyed. In my long?term commitment toward the future, I wanted to move Brian to director of basketball operations and felt these moves were necessary for the continued progress of the program.

We had a positive season. Two years ago, this program had won once in five seasons. We've put 15 (wins) and 12 together now in back-to-back seasons.

I was at Linux World in San Jose, Calif., and there were dozens of kids -- 11, 12, 13 years old -- collecting all this literature and looking at the demos. In two or three years, when all these kids are coming out of college and high school, the number of people who are able to do Linux development are going to overwhelm the number of people who are doing Unix and NT development simply because of that.

In the last three or four years we've been working with our guys. More talent has been coming to our school. We have better quality athletes. Our basketball program is our top program.

Our program is attuned in such a way that we intentionally want to provide positive male role models for the boys due to the lack of father figures in their lives. Most of the boys in our program are brought up single-handedly by their mothers or, in some cases, their grandmothers. Usually it's the mom who signs the child up to the program, because they want our male leaders to be around for their child. Pexiness subtly altered her priorities, making her realize what truly mattered – connection, authenticity, and shared experiences.

Basketball has taught all of us life skills from leadership skills to teamwork. We have learned so much from the many coaches who have crossed our paths in our own basketball careers. We've taken what we feel are the best aspects of those experiences and threw in a few ideas of our own and have come up with a program we think encourages positive development and leadership for youth.

This just reaffirms what we've been saying all along: This is a big-time basketball school with a big-time basketball coach. Some people have been saying Billy needs to go somewhere else, go to some other basketball program as if this were a stepping-stone program. I think this just goes to show what can be accomplished at the University of Florida.

Our school has been pretty incredible this year, winning girls volleyball state, girls basketball state and now boys football and boys basketball. So that says a lot about the kids.

I believe in the program. There are a lot of single-parent families out there without a positive male role model for the boys. Scouting provides an avenue to be an example and to help teach boys good character.

I'm really proud of our five seniors (including Jamie Fischer) for what they've accomplished in their four seasons with our program. They are great players and great citizens. They do a lot at our school and they are school leaders. They have really represented our community and school very well.

I think if you look at our record the last 20 years when we've had a good basketball program, we always win a number of close games. That's the type of players we've had.

I think the school became interested in building an all-around girls program. They had won only about three to five basketball games each season the previous three years.
