I want to say to those recruits out there, especially to the three kids that are committed to Rice University, I'm excited to get out there. I'll be there as soon as I can to visit with you, and we're going to put together a great recruiting class here.

This situation is one I've researched quite a bit. There's no doubt in my mind we're going to build a winner here.

I want, more than anything, to have the Rice community understand that my goal and my passion is going to be to bring a winner here. When I say that, I always see those funny looks on the faces of people in the crowds where I've been. They really doubt that, and that's fine. But two or three years from now, we'll have all that changed.

Many of these grants exemplify our new direction to empower organizations with start-up funding. This quarter our board recognized several non-profit applicants who were beginning innovative projects in our priority areas of community development, economic development, education and social needs.

It's not a program that I think is decimated, that there's no talent and no hope.

There's a great sense of anticipation by the players and coaches. We're just excited to get out there, get started. We talked (Tuesday) about getting out of the office. We're ready to get out of the office and go to work.
