great ivory nobody
They have Ivory Latta and nobody else does. But they have a lot of great players. It's not just Ivory Latta.
aggressive clock difficult pace quit team
They are a team that doesn't quit on you. They are very feisty, aggressive and difficult to defend. The clock was at a snail's pace at the end.
easy game rest
There is not too much rest in the ACC. There is no easy game in the ACC.
bought defense fact pleased team
Our defense is usually pretty good. I'm pleased where we are now. This team has bought into the fact that if we want to win, we have to play defense.
There was a lot of fouls in the game. That kind of disrupts your rhythm.
basically coming doubt exactly floor game help improve job needed tonight tremendous
I wanted her to basically take a look at things from the floor to see defensively how she could improve upon her game and help our team. I thought she did a tremendous job tonight coming off the bench. I doubt it will be permanent. She did exactly what I needed her to do tonight.
good last seen
The last two games, I have seen us do things that I have not even seen us do in practice. That's just not a good thing. I have no idea what to do about that.
best half performance
The first half was our best performance of the year.
practice
You won't get away with anything in practice if Tiffany's out there.
