absolutely coaching couple drive hair last players pure spoiled teams white
I told the commissioner that by the end of the year, I'll have pure white hair from coaching these guys. When you have young players like this, they'll drive you absolutely crazy, especially after you get spoiled by the teams I had the last couple of years.
good job moving players plays
Morrison does such a good job moving without the ball. He's like a throwback. He plays the way a lot of players used to. He's terrific.

We've won a lot of championships, but I'm not sure that any one of them is any more special than this one. This team has come so far. They continue to amaze me.

I think he's improved in all areas of his game. He's always been a good scorer. He has quick hands and he has good defensive instincts. He's the big reason Colorado is doing so well.

I was convinced high school was the place for me.
behind crowd fans game gets hard points team
I thought the crowd was very good, but it's hard when your team gets behind by 10 or 12 points. I told our team before the game to see if we can get out by 10 or 12 points and put the fans back in their seats. We were able to do that.
certainly fact oklahoma played tougher
I think we just got outplayed. I think Oklahoma just played better than we did. They certainly displayed the fact that they were a little tougher than we were.
against certainly factor free playing points shot takes teams throw time zone
I think that certainly is a factor in some of the scores. It takes more time to get a shot against a zone than it does man-to-man. Teams that are playing zone probably aren't fouling as much, so you aren't getting as many points at the free throw line.
brought horrible played seems teams
We played horrible guarding the three-point line. It seems to me they out-toughed us on some rebounds... The thing that disappointed me the most is I didn't think we competed as well as some of the other teams we've brought here.
added normally played report scouting starting team
They will have played only one game, so we will not have the scouting report we normally have. They've got their whole starting team and they've added some guys. That will be a very competitive edge.
played scouting team
They've only played one game, so we don't have scouting reports. I think they're going to be a very competitive team when you play them in Waco.

Not only in our league, but I think they have to be one of best backcourts in college basketball.
