hopefully people played
I thought I played pretty well and hopefully other people thought that too.
good jersey people thinks typical
He's got that typical Jersey mentality. People may think he's a little obnoxious, but that's how he is. He's going to tell you what he thinks and that's a good thing. He'll tell me what he thinks and I'll tell him right back.
majority people totally
It's totally different for everybody. People are everywhere. A majority of them aren't even going to the games.
coaching final fun next pleased successful year
We're not pleased with the final result, but with the inexperience we had we think it was a very successful year. It was the most fun we've ever had coaching a team, and next year we should be much improved.
carries coming huge team
Every game's huge for us. But with a top-10 team coming in here, this one carries a lot of weight.
defensive focus halftime hang hold lead past push talked team teams though
We wanted to focus on the defensive end of the floor. When you hold a team to 49 points, that's always pretty good. The thing we really talked about at halftime was even though we were up 12, in past games, the 12 went to 10 and 8, and we let those teams hang around. We wanted to push that 12-point lead to 15 and 18, and concentrate on attacking.
energy games ourselves pick reevaluate team time
We were pretty soft. We were not the team we had been in some of the games where we were battling. It was time for us to reevaluate ourselves and pick the energy up.
almost consider freshmen games guys played tenth veterans
I don't consider them to be freshmen anymore. They've played in a lot of big games for us so far. We're in our tenth game of the season, and those guys are almost veterans already.
instilled stick throughout tough
My family's always instilled that in me, just having integrity. There's been a lot of tough times throughout this year, throughout my career, but it's important to stick with it and keep battling.
beat both good job team
I think we had some possessions there, both defensively and offensively after we were up five, and we didn't get the job done. To beat a team like Marquette, you have to be good in those situations.
boards halftime pushing talked
Man, I was in there squeezing some boards down. We talked a lot at halftime to keep pushing it and keep getting better.
good guys happy help rebounds squeeze team
I was able to get in there and squeeze down some rebounds as well. I'm just happy I can help my team any way I can. I was just able to find guys on my team in good spots.
games road together tougher
Road games are very important to us. We've got to be a together group; we've got to be a tougher group.
might ready time
I feel good. I'm ready to play some more. We've got no time to be tired, because we're going to New York. The way we did it might have been a little unorthodox, but we scrapped our way to it.
