advance basketball far feed gratifying guys help pressure season special stuff talk together toughest tournament trying younger
This season would be really, really special if we were to advance far in the tournament because it's been the toughest season on the players. A lot of these younger guys are experiencing stuff they've never experienced before with all of the pressure and all of the talk about us not being able to play together in the Connecticut basketball sense. It would be very, very gratifying to go far in the tournament. I think that's something that we're trying to feed off of and we're trying to use that to help us play.
attention beginning detail exactly game learned offense pay run stuff sure trying understand
We learned that when we're in the huddle, we really have to pay attention to detail and make sure that we understand exactly what we're trying to do. I think that's the most important thing. At the beginning of the half, we didn't run the right offense every possession. In a game like this, all that stuff matters.
approach bottom extra line lost matters none stuff talking
I am not into ?We lost so I have extra motivation,? or anything like that. The bottom line is we have to go down there and win. All the extra stuff or talking about it before the game, none of that matters if we don?t go down there and play the way we need to play. That is the way we have to approach it.
lost mostly played playing press run
We just lost our composure. I give them credit. They played hard, but mostly it was us playing too fast. We went on a run at the beginning, but then they started to press and we lost our minds.
crowd fast friday front ordinary surprised tonight turned
It was weird. I said Friday I'd be surprised if we didn't play well. But we didn't. We had a big crowd tonight and we wanted to play well in front of them. Everything was so fast and out of the ordinary that it turned out wrong.
lose time ugly year
It was an ugly win, but at this time of the year it doesn't really matter. It's about winning. You lose you go home.
ball broken took
It was a broken play. I just called for the ball and took the shot. That was that.
august coming early last late mid playing process season september since slow until year
I've been playing since early August and it was a slow process getting back in. It wasn't until mid to late September when I started to feel like myself again. I feel light-years better than I did last year coming into this season physically.
feeling game minds national run
There would be no better feeling than to be able to end this with a run at the national championship. I think it is in the back of our minds, and it is something that we are going to try to keep in our minds game in and game out.
last plays prior win
We didn't make plays prior to that for us to win the game, so that's what it all comes down to. It doesn't come down to the last play.
lived national power win
We lived up to our expectations for the most part. But we want to go out and let everyone know we did everything in our power to win a national championship.
ended feeling glad high possibly relationship season tension took
Everything you could possibly think of went on in that meeting. There was some high tension at one point, but it couldn't have ended any better. He pretty much put it out there for us to go out and do it. I'm glad that we took the chance. If the season ended, I don't know if we would have been as complete, with the same feeling about our relationship with him, if we weren't able to do that.
learn loss ready realize strengths
Sometimes you need a loss to realize you strengths and your weaknesses. And I think in that case, we realize our weaknesses. Hopefully, we can learn from it and get ready to play.
bit everybody feeling felt good locker rhythm room smile
Everybody got into a little bit of a rhythm and everybody felt like they were a part of what we did tonight. That's always a good feeling when everybody can come into the locker room and smile about the game.
