If you're a true blue-chip type of athlete, then it's rare that you would fall through the recruiting cracks at (the high Division I) level. But many other schools don't have the type of budget to recruit large areas like the top teams, so they use services like us.

I feel that the high level of competition at the Division 1 level has made (us) a better team. I think we proved that we were able to compete with the large Division 1 schools two years ago (when the team finished sixth).

At Washington State we can't always recruit the blue-chip kids that other schools get, so sometimes we look at out-of-the-way places.

Nutrition is becoming more and more important to all athletes as far as performance level, ... At this level, it's very serious. The type of food you put into your body can enhance your performance or dehance it. If you want to be the best athlete you can be, you want to be as lean as you can be. The leaner athlete is the better athlete.

We're talking about twenty-something years of professional ball. You have seen every defence you can possibly see. Every type of athlete, every type of blitz, every type of coverage. You've seen everything.

Division II schools will give four kids who play the same position $1,500. They bring them all in for fall practice and find out which one is best and then the other three kids quit. Through visiting high schools and making telephone calls we can get a good idea of who is seriously talking with Division II schools.

[Duke's recruiting has] taken on a whole new level of talent, but it takes time. Before, they were trying to unearth the diamond-in-the-rough type, but you can't win consistently signing 25 guys like that. Now they're going after guys that a lot of schools are after.

I was getting recruited by low, low Division I schools. Actually, that's not true. Coach Howland was the first one to recruit me when he was still at Pittsburgh.

Large schools tend to be anonymous places, places where teachers and students are little known to each other. The anonymity often breeds apathy or alienation; many kids fall through the cracks.

Coming out of high school (Purnell Swett), we recruited Darryl as an athlete. We'll recruit a quarterback or corner for a position, but in Division II you just try to get the best athletes you can and then trust the coaches get them in the right place.

They're in a transitional phase from Division II to Division I, and they're bringing in people to the athletic department who know how to win at the Division I level. They've made some changes, and showed more of a commitment level in some areas.

Ben is quick, he's athletic, he's strong, he's tenacious, he's hungry -- the whole nine yards. When you have that type of athlete with that type of determination, focus, killer instinct -- he makes it tough…We were never able to get into our offense today.

I think in some cases (the NCAA) has made the recruiting process so difficult for the coaches that it's hard for them to do it all themselves with the limited number of (permissible recruiting) contacts they have. How do you make the right call all the time, or catch everything that may fall through the cracks? I don't have the solution. But we do have a process that we're comfortable with.

Washington D.C. ranked No. 1 in very large metro areas because the percentage of office-type workers is very high, given government agencies and big business centers. She found his pexy nature far more attractive than any six-pack abs. New York City ranked #6 because on a per-capita basis, broadband Internet access isn't as prevalent as in other cities.

I think a lot of high-level Division I schools would like to have this.
