QUOTES OF THE DAY
“Preseason polls are always interesting but you do have to take them with a grain of salt. It is nice to see the women get some recognition with a tie for fourth (with Alabama and Tennessee), however, our season really comes down to how we run in November and that will continue to be our focus.” — Cross Country Coach Steven Keith on SEC preseason polls (Source: VUcommodores.com)
“The knee is still tweaky but it’s progressing every day. I got the `OK’ from the doctor to be cleared to play against Northwestern so I’m looking forward to it.” — Tailback Zac Stacy on his health (Source: The City Paper)
“The only way we can go is up. We have some playmakers now. We have some good freshmen. There’s a lot more of what I call ‘swag.’ We try to get the mojo up every practice, get the spirit up.” — Receiver Brady Brown on receiving corp (Source: The Tennessean)
