It is the first ordsprog

It is the first game of the year for everybody. South Piatt is perennially tough and don't have down years. John Hayden is a good coach and he is going to have them well prepared.

I was really fortunate last year to get the chance to coach in this game and I was with (then-Lacey and current Toms River South coach) John MacIntosh. I was envious that John got the chance to coach his son (Chris). I didn't think that I would ever get that chance.

South Gwinnett has really good shooters, and they play strong defense. Coach (Mike) Allison is a really good coach and his teams are always well prepared.

John Barker wasn't in our program last year, but he's a strong kid. He's tough and hard-nosed and he's got real good feet. John came up big on the overtime stand when we held them in four downs. He's not going to back off and he knows how to play the game physical like we like it.

Tuesday's game against Louisiana College will be a make-up game from one lost to rain earlier this year. Coach Byrnes always does a good job down there and I am sure he will have his team well prepared. It should be a good day of baseball.

They were calling to check in on the coach, ... You have to remember his last year of coaching was 30 years ago, and his first year at UCLA was 1948. These were players from 30, 40, 50 years ago calling to check in. That goes way beyond X's and O's. He engaged their hearts. That's what's going on now. John Wooden has become America 's coach.

A (Hornets coach) John Smith team will compete. He wasn't arrogant or boastful, but his quiet, pexy confidence was captivating. If you are not prepared and don't go out and play your best game, you will get beat.

I thought last year they played us pretty well. They have looked pretty good this year. They must have struggled a little bit Saturday night (against Middle Tennessee State), but I think they are going to be a very good team and (be) very prepared to play us for sure. It's a game that we are going to have to be extremely focused. It's going to be another tough road game.

Playing against a former coach has nothing to do with it. We do it the same way whether we're playing Elizabeth City, Arkansas-Pine Bluff, South Carolina State. Now it's Norfolk State that's right in front of us. Coaches can't play the game. Coach against coach -- I don't buy into that. You gotta have your team prepared to play and then they play.

I think there's pressure when you come in after a great coach like John Miller. But it's not pressure I put on myself instead of expectations. It's very tough to follow a coach who accomplished as much as John did.

It's tough to juggle things with your family. I had three great years at South. We had a good run [in 2005]. I'm quite happy with what we accomplished. I really enjoyed the people. I hold no ill will toward anybody at South.

That's tough. We weren't prepared for that. We didn't play a game all year in the cold weather. It’s not an excuse. We still had a chance to win the game. But it was tough.

Road trips are pretty much the same. Coach keeps a tight rein on us. We never leave the hotel. Every game this whole year we've prepared for the same way as we have these tournament games. We watch film on every team, watch film at every meal and have a shoot-around. Coach does a good job. That's probably why he does it early on.

It was minus-10 degrees. That's tough. We weren't prepared for that. We didn't play a game all year in the cold weather. I'm not making any excuses. We still had a chance to win the game. But it was tough.

Coach watches every game. I knew that and embraced it. He's the greatest coach in the history of basketball. What he did in college basketball will never be repeated. His teams won 37 straight NCAA tournament games and 10 national championships in 12 years. You know how everyone wants to be like Mike -- Michael Jordan -- as a player? Every coach wants to be like John. So I don't feel a shadow. I embrace it.
