dad david freshman good knew overly thrilled
We knew the dad wasn't overly thrilled about everything, but we always thought David was fine. I thought he had a good freshman year.
game good job
We got after them pretty good. We did a good job of controlling the game from the get-go. At 16-2, I thought we were in pretty good shape.
bad certainly december duke dwell game good played roll team texas
We've been on a pretty good roll and certainly played a bad game tonight. Texas didn't become a bad team after Duke (a 31-point setback December 10) and we didn't become a bad team after these 40 minutes. We certainly aren't going to dwell on that.
basketball difficult easily game good great jim job
What are they, 6-9 in the conference? They could easily be 9-6 or 10-5. They are a good basketball team. Jim (Wooldridge) has done a great job with them and it will be a very difficult game for us.
confidence good grew guys season stand sweeter
Certainly, from my stand point, this was sweeter than any of the other (victories) that we have had this season because we started (Big 12 play) 1-2. We were 1-2 and not very good, but the guys got confidence and the young guys grew up and we got pretty good late.
good surface
I think he's just scratching the surface of how good he can be.
good
I think he's a good person and good coach.
anybody based good
I think he did some good things. I don't think I'll do any cartwheels based on how anybody played.
frame game good guarantee mind next
I think that game did a lot for our confidence. It doesn't guarantee we're going to play well in the next game, but we're probably in about as good a frame of mind as we have been in all year.
apologize elite everybody finishing gives good impression last league second winning year
It gives everybody the impression that we didn't do that well. ... We had a good year last year. I don't think we should apologize for winning the league or finishing second the year before and going to the Elite Eight.
game good job
I think today, we got them pretty good. I think we really did a good job of controlling the game from the get-go.
good guards played russell
Mario, Brandon and Russell all played very, very well. When they play well, they're about as good as any guards around, in my opinion.
adds atmosphere chances expected good great kansas matter pumped spice teams town
I expected it to be tough, and this would have been a great atmosphere no matter what. Usually, when Kansas comes to town it adds spice to the game. When we don't play well on the road, our chances aren't good because usually teams are pumped to play us.
forces good guy help playing shooting worried
He's a good on-the-ball defender, loose-ball guy and forces help offensively. Now that he's not worried about making shots, he's shooting better. He's playing really well.
