They and others in attendance then released hundreds of green balloons following the national anthem.Dantonio concluded the list of speakers by talking about Sadlers competitive spirit and his constant quest to make the most of his potential. The head coach finished by quoting an essay written by Ann Landers.Class can walk with kings and keep its virtue, and with crowds to keep the common touch, Dantonio said. Everyone is comfortable with a person who has a class as he is comfortable with himself. When you have class, you dont need much of anything else. If you dont have it, whatever else you have doesnt make that big a difference. ' ' '
