amends chance good guy guys loss next obviously piece team tournament year
The tournament loss was obviously very disappointing. But I think this team can get a lot better. With another piece or two, this team could become great. We could probably use another big guy and a perimeter shooter. The good thing is these guys have a chance to come back next year and try to make amends as much as we can.
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.
ball good great job missed russell threw throw time tried
We put C.J. on the ball to take away the throw to the rim. That is what they tried to do the time before. Russell didn't do a great job on Neal on the play. It wasn't a good look, but he got off a look. We thought they would throw it to the basket. Fortunately for us, they threw outside, and he missed it so I'll say it was good defense.
confidence expected good grew guys pride team
We were 1-2 and not very good, guys got confidence and young guys grew up, and we got pretty good late. So to me I have more pride in the team that is not expected to (win), than a team that is expected to.
confidence expected expecting good grew guys pride team
We were 1-2 and not very good, and guys got confidence and guys grew up and got pretty good late. To me, I have more pride with a team not expecting to do it, and do it, than a team that is expected to do it and does it.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
