"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.

Comes as news to me!  :bigass:

One of my colleagues noted that the letter contains a typo–it refers to "interstate" basketball rivalries when it should say "intrastate."
