came division felt few four lost past players three time turned wars won
We won a few wars and we lost a few wars today. Here in the past week, we lost (five) players to Division I(-A) programs. But at the same time we were able to get three or four of those players that turned down Division I offers. We felt like overall, as competitive as it was, that we came out pretty good.

bit control days five six slow time
It's a slow process, I'll tell you. It's a little bit frustrating. I want to go full-tilt right now. I'm just kind of working my way into it. We've got such a young team, it's not like I can take five or six days off. It's just the first time I've ever had anything I couldn't control in life. So it is frustrating.
