We have played three straight NCAA Tournament teams in fairly hostile environments.
beat chance coming drive minutes ncaa parents players sister
My parents and sister can drive 15 minutes and see the game, so you can't beat that. Coming back is great, but it's really about our players getting a chance to play in the NCAA tournament.
fairly help hostile ncaa played season straight teams three tournament
At the end of the season here, we know we played three straight NCAA Tournament teams in fairly hostile environments. If that doesn't help you get ready, I don't know what does.
bumped certainly earned excuses guys liked ncaa penn played state team ten
I'm not making excuses or apologies for how this team played. Penn State is the only team as young as us in the (Big Ten Conference). We played in the NCAA tournament. We just got bumped and our guys earned our way here....I certainly liked the way they played.

I like it for these players who are working so hard, to take care of these three against NCAA Tournament teams.
chance figure free games people plus shoot students win
We figure 7 p.m., people can get there of all ages, they get to the Kohl Center, they see us play some games and have some fun, ... When most people see us only during a game, where it's more intense, and they get a chance to see everybody, plus we get some students out there. They shoot half-court shots, three-point shots, free throws, a chance to win some contests.

These young guys get to live in their moment. I don't know what people remember about Wisconsin or what people remember about Arizona. Everyone is in their own time warp.

People that know basketball recognize effort opportunities that a guy takes advantage of and he's done that every minute he's been on the floor. Here's a freshman that's come in an really chipped in on the glass, defensively, making good passes and playing with a lot of energy and kind of uplifting the team when he gets on the floor.
basket drives move seen shot shots
We didn't move well, but when you do get a look you've got to make something happen. We had some drives to the basket where we shot some floaters - shots that I've never seen before. You can't get those back.
among appreciate came coach job received somewhere three
The three of us appreciate where we came from and how we got here. There was no one that received a job here, among the three of us, by privilege. You had to get something done somewhere as a coach on your own.

athletic happen quick
The thing we didn't want to have happen happened. You can't play from behind. It's very difficult. We are not as athletic or quick enough to play from behind.
