on Quinn...he's a fantastic person, great communicator...gifted ball coach with great sense of the game. Easy to communicate with.
Philosophy on interest from other teams....he tells them from the time they are hired that he will help them achieve the goals they have for themselves. It doesn't always work out, but he does really mean that he will do as he says and will do what he can to help them out. Individual goals are something they are always striving towards.
on Turnovers....he says it is something that's been with him since he first started coaching. Called it basically his primary philosophy about the game
That's it for today. Friday is the final press conference before the game
