nice open shooting shots
He's done some really nice things for us. Shooting the ball, making open threes ... sometimes it comes down to making shots and getting confidence.
ball beat great performance seen shooting shot start team
They beat us from start to finish. It was a great performance shooting the basketball. I've never seen a team shoot the ball they way they shot it. It just wasn't one guy, it was everybody.
bad games shooting win
You're not going to win many games shooting 25 percent. I thought offensively we were just really bad tonight.
expect great half players second understand
The players understand they didn't play a great second half. It's not the way we have to play in the Big Ten. You can't play one half and expect to win.
close continue defense figure good post starts
We've got to figure out a way, but obviously, post defense starts with good perimeter defense. We've just got to continue to show improvement. We're not close to where we need to be offensively or defensively.
against breakout dangerous game hoping pieces played seen struggled
There a very dangerous team, they've got all the pieces there. They've kind of struggled here lately. You're kind of hoping the breakout game isn't against you. We've seen what they've done when they really played well.
ball blocking continue offensive work
We're not a big team. We have to continue to work on blocking out and offensive rebounding the ball -- getting after it.
basketball guys mixed played ready score ten
We're not ready at all. We're just not. I told those guys that defensively we're not ready. Offensively, I think we'll be able to score some points. Defensively, we're not ready for Big Ten basketball yet. In fairness, we haven't mixed things up and we've just played man-to-man defense.
chance competing continue good win
We've come a long, long way from really not competing to competing and having a chance to win games. Hopefully, good things will continue for us on the horizon.
good guards
Those two guards are very, very good for them. They make a lot of plays.
missing tired
We weren't tired -- we were just missing shots.
against critical difference free lewis needed ron shots throws
We got our opportunities but we didn't make some critical shots and some critical free throws when we needed to. Ron Lewis made some big shots against us and that was the difference in the game.
challenged couple good guard hit job jump
We challenged their shooters well, (freshman guard Bobby) Riddell hit a couple at the end, but I think we did a good job of challenging their jump shooters.
gotta
You gotta go in there, and you gotta go swing.
