biggest difference eight last people starters stay year
That's been the biggest difference for us from last year to this year. Last year we only had eight players. This year we've got the depth.... We just keep rotating people in and it allows our starters to stay fresh.
affect great looking lost maryland people record teams thinking
We just lost to two great teams ... but I think people are looking at our record thinking we're on a downslide. Because Maryland is such a great team, I don't think it should affect our seeding.
basketball bit people tune
People that aren't typically women's basketball fans, if they just tune in for a little bit and see them play, they'll come back for more.
basketball grow people
I didn't want them to just grow as basketball players. I wanted them to grow as people as well.
concerned job people shows unselfish
It makes my job easier. I think it shows with our assists, how unselfish they are, but also with the minutes. People are only concerned with the end result.
becoming efficient minutes people players stay wear

battling dangerous fighting fights-and-fighting knew team tradition
I knew they were going to come out fighting and battling and they did. When you've got a team with such tradition and at home, it's a very dangerous combination.
impressed keeps somebody tough
I'm really impressed with Jefferson. She just keeps getting better and better. She's somebody who can get her own shots. She's strong, she's physical, she's athletic. She's just a tough kid.
create half impressed keeps physical several shot tapes tone tough watched
I'm really impressed with Jefferson. I've watched several tapes on them and she keeps getting better and better. She can create her own shot and she's strong, physical and athletic. She's a tough kid. She set the tone for them in the first half (against Kentucky).

It's something that we certainly have been focusing on. What we've done in practice is showing up in the games. We've done a pretty good job.
