break excited
I'm not real excited about a break now.
excited focused fun missouri
They're an immature, fun and focused group. They don't get excited on the road. Even in the Missouri game, they weren't rattled.
blame crowds excited expected sandwich spoiled
We're spoiled with the crowds we get here. We can't blame the crowd for us being dull, because we didn't give them much to get excited about. But I expected it. It was a sandwich game.
certainly excited four overly six teams tied
You look at the four teams that tied with six wins, any of those teams can do some damage. Certainly I'm not overly excited about our first-round draw, considering we have to play one of two teams we know are very capable.
boys excited fun good guys holmes means playing plays shoot sure teammates
These guys will come in and will play hard. They can shoot the ball. They'll make us make plays which will be good for us. Hopefully, we'll be excited to play. I'm sure the Holmes boys will let their teammates know how much it means to them and how much fun they'll have playing in Allen. We'll do the same.
best sure
I'm sure we'll get their best shot. We always do.
sure winner
I'm sure the winner will get one of those.
creating enthusiasm job remarkable sure
I'm sure the place will be full. He's done a remarkable job of creating enthusiasm and a mind-set down there.
front game good others
In front of the crowd, I thought they did a pretty good job. Julian was in a hurry. The game was in fast-forward (Friday night) for him. The others all had pretty good composure.
difference forced freshmen hoped knew learn others perfect seniors underneath
I knew we'd be inconsistent. I didn't know to what level. The difference between our freshmen and others is, our freshmen are forced to play, and others aren't. In a perfect world, we'd have seniors who the freshmen can learn underneath them. We've been a little more inconsistent than probably what I hoped so far.
completed information matter people sure
It's not anyone's fault. It was just a matter of getting all of the information compiled and contacting the right people to make sure that he had completed all of the requirements.
cost couple four good shooting teams three
Everybody's shooting two or three or four a game. I think with teams like that, it's why you don't shoot as good a percentage. But 8-for-17 is miserable. It's already cost us a couple of games.
game guys performers sure typical
The big guys were the better performers this game. It sure wasn't a typical game for the perimeter.
best conference finish hung instead selection strong win
The best way (for RPI) to get better is win games. Instead of getting hung up on RPI, we should get hung up on conference play. If we finish strong in the conference, it'll bode well for us come Selection Sunday.
