Pokey Chatman Quotes
«The bottom line is, the further you advance, the tougher the competition becomes, the more locked in and focused you have to be on every single possession. We had opportunities to help ourselves, but we didn't.»

«I am who I am in no small part because of the role she has played in my life ? both as a coach and as a person. I feel a great sense of responsibility to carry on her legacy at LSU.»

«It was such an honor to walk out behind her and watch her stand there and look at the arena filled to the rafters. That was enough for me. Win, lose or draw, that said everything about her ? when she had to coach, tape ankles, teach, the whole nine yards. That moment right there was something I'll always remember.»

«She had that Coach Gunter gleam in her eye and that smirk in the right corner of her mouth. That wink said more to me than anything. This is, in my opinion, the pinnacle. This represents that national championship that so eluded her as a coach.»

«[While Gunter's passing and enshrinement are major events in the history of LSU basketball, don't expect too much in the way of dedications when the season tips off.] She would probably come down from heaven and put me over her knee if I did anything any differently in regards to her not being here, ... When she stepped down during the season, it was never about `Win one for the Gipper' and Sue's demise.»

«[Rather, if the upcoming LSU season is to be dedicated to Gunter's memory at all, it'll be in a much quieter, yet stronger fashion.] She's embedded in the fabric of all of us, ... and the best thing we can do is be the best people we can be, and if that translates into victory, that is so enough for her.»

«I can't tell you her words [when she learned of her election], but it was the look in her eyes that had been gone, ... That smirk in the right side of her mouth. And then the wink. ... They talk about [the friendship of] Jim Calhoun and Jim Boeheim. That was Sue with everyone she came in contact with. It's just a reminder to me of how special she was.»

«That's the part that was so bittersweet for Sue, ... It's so in line with so many things that happened in her career. From being head coach of the 1980 Olympic team when we boycotted, to our first Final Four when she watched the game in her hotel room in New Orleans. The irony of all that is that she was the one person who was OK with the circumstances.»

«I opted to finish school, and she offered me a job. The rest is history, as I spent nearly 18 years, or half my life, with her.»
