Bobby May Quotes

I desperately wanted the AD job in 1989 because things were really bleak. There were elements of despair and resignation ? a feeling that Rice simply could not compete at the Division I level in the Southwest Conference. There was ample evidence of that: 24 straight losing seasons in football; no championships in any sport since 1971. But I knew we could win, and wanted the opportunity to show everyone I was right.
