everybody good happens hard hope overcome players wait worked
I know I've worked hard, and I know the players have worked hard this year. We've had to overcome some things, and I hope that's good enough. We're going to be just like everybody else: we're going to wait and see what happens Sunday. That's all we can do.
contest expect good hopefully road scoring teams win year
We're like a lot of teams this year on the road, and hopefully we'll have a good performance. A lot of that comes from your defense. You can't get into a scoring contest on the road and expect to win very often. Most teams play better offensively at home.
basketball becoming early good great hopefully played second start stretch
I thought we had a great stretch of basketball early in the second half. We played well enough to keep the lead. Hopefully this is the start of becoming a good basketball team.
good help hopefully league looks ncaa schedule shot strength teams tournament wins year
Historically, if you get to .500 in league play, you're in a pretty good position. Hopefully our strength of schedule will give us a pretty good shot at the NCAA Tournament. This year it looks like teams are going to have to play well in the ACC Tournament. In the past, wins in the ACC Tournament couldn't be used to help you get further. Now, you have to play well there to help your chances.
good hopefully learned lesson pay remember second turned until
Hopefully we learned a good lesson tonight. They made us pay until we got it turned around. I'll just remember we didn't play well in the second half.
coming earn experience four good individual player players returning several takes
I know what it takes to win, and it's up to each individual player to make that happen. We have to earn the right to be a good team. We have several returning players that got a lot of experience as sophomores and juniors, and we have four new players coming in that want to get things done. Hopefully, that will be infectious.
forward looking next player time
I'm looking forward to it. This time of the year, if you're a player or a coach, you like these next two months.
night seems stepping
Each night it seems like someone is stepping up.
good jones mike saying
Everybody's been saying they want to see how good Mike Jones is. Well, he's a pretty good player.
adjust both contact ends free game held helped throws
The big thing was they were averaging 26 free throws a game and we held them to 15. That helped us a lot. I thought the contact was there at both ends of the court. You try to adjust to how the game is being called.
After that, ... there is a lot of confusion.
boston concerned talking
I haven't been talking about it today, and I'm going to talk about it tonight. We have Boston College, that's all I'm concerned with.
great job proud
I'm very proud of our team. We did a great job in just about every situation.
both game ncaa reason tournament
It was a big game for both teams, (FSU) got the win, and there's no reason why they shouldn't be an NCAA Tournament team. I think they can get in (the NCAA Tournament) and do some damage.
