chance effort gave good ourselves proud strength tonight
We gave ourselves a chance with this game. I'm proud of us tonight and I think we'll get a good effort at Virginia. I feel like with our strength of schedule, we can get to .500 (in the ACC) and give ourselves a chance.
effort gone playing point practice teams tough
The players, they're responsible for the way we're playing right now. It's their attitude, their effort in practice that allows us to play like this at this point in the season. You look around and see some teams that have gone through some tough things that aren't necessarily playing as well right now.
attitude effort fortitude mean players playing practice whatever
The players are responsible for whatever way we're playing right now, because it's their attitude and their effort in practice that allows us to play like this. To the players, you can say all the right things, but if the players don't have the fortitude to get it done, it doesn't mean anything as a coach.
effort good hard players team tough week
It was a really good team effort tonight. Obviously, this has been a tough week and it's been pretty hard to keep my focus, so it must be for the players also.
effort good overall
Hopefully, we can go from there. That was a very good effort overall for us. If we can play with that intensity, we'll be OK.
effort stayed stretch tough
I'll take that effort we had. We stayed tough down the stretch when we could have let them go.
bit might worn
We might have worn them down a little bit at the end of the first half.
develop effective impact programs
We have to develop effective programs that really do impact homelessness.
We scored runs. I'm not disappointed with the offense. I'm not disappointed with the bats. I am disappointed with our defense.
events favorite guys labor talk ticket toughest
It was a labor of love, and it was the toughest ticket to get. Guys still talk about it and say that was one of their favorite events at this rodeo.
assistant relationship season spend time
The season is so long, and you spend so much time with them, that the most important relationship you have is with your assistant coaches.
bench few guys players quite sitting
Duke's done that for quite a few years now. Players know their roles. You don't have a lot of guys sitting on the end of the bench who think they should be playing.
hot looks teams
During the season, there are different teams that get hot and for Carolina, it looks that way.
bit break defense defensive good intensity sell start struggling time
Our defensive intensity was really good to start the game. I had to sell the idea that if you play really good defense most of the time and you're struggling a bit offensively, the defense will break some things loose.
