coming count knew
Aldridge, we knew he was going to score. Abrams, we didn't count on him coming in and getting 12.
best heart national performance texas
Aldridge is their best player, but P.J. Tucker is their heart and soul. That was a national championship-type performance by Texas tonight.
based best four great half jim job kansas last league lost potential state teams tough
Your job is based on how you do with the potential that you have. That's why I think Jim is a great coach. I think that Kansas State is one of the best four teams in our league in the last half of the Big 12 season. They have lost a lot of tough games.
freshmen learn situation starting
This is a situation that we've never been in before, starting freshmen and sophomores, and we're going to learn from it. We'll get better.
afterwards anyone game job nice remember seniors tone
The seniors set the tone early. They did a nice job and I told them afterwards they'll remember this one because they impacted the game as much as anyone on our team. They'll remember this game for a long, long time.
anybody coach feeling gets hope school wish
I wish coach was here. I hope he gets to feeling better. He's done more for this school than anybody could ever imagine.
played
If we'd played man, he would have had 25 points.
against execute run team three wasted
If we play like that against a Big 12 team on the road, you're going to get beat. There are 10 wasted opportunities a game. If we can't get our wasted possessions to three or four, then we don't need to run like that. We need to execute better, keep our turnovers down.
offensive outside shots teams ugly
If we didn't make those outside shots today, it would have been an ugly offensive game. You have got to make shots when teams do that.
changes lead
I don't how many lead changes there were or ties, but there were a lot.
bright couple course last thinking
Of course it is a big deal. But they don't need to go in thinking, 'Hey, this is our chance. This is a big, bright stage,' or anything like that. They just need to go in thinking about the same things they've been thinking about for the last couple of months.
both created facing help league prepare provide styles teams
One thing they will do will be to provide our league with styles created more off of pressure, both offensively and defensively. That's something we haven't had much of. Facing different styles will help prepare teams for the post-season.
believe recruit recruiting three
I believe when you recruit a perimeter player, you're recruiting for him to play one of three spots.
certainly effective stretch sunday
Certainly it will be a stretch for him to be effective on Sunday -- if he is able to play at all. He did the splits.
