almost basketball best college decision found hurt level limited lottery maybe needed time year
I thought he needed another year because he was limited offensively. Just another year of basketball at the college level wouldn't have hurt him. (But) once we found out he was going to be a lottery pick, then for a player, you almost have to go. There really wasn't much of a decision there. For Chris, maybe that was his best time to go.
benefit good guys position resolve seniors team year younger
What you have to try to do is put yourself in as good a position as you can put yourself into. Probably, we didn't get into a real good position this year with some of the things that happened. Hopefully, the younger guys on the team benefit from that and the seniors get a little different resolve as they leave.
good guys job rewarded tough win wins year
It's a tough thing because I thought our guys did a good job this year to win 19 games. A lot of times 19 wins are rewarded by going to the NCAA.
ncaa next talk year
I want to find out what's important, to really look into it and talk to some people. All I want to know going into next year is what we need to do, schedule-wise, to get into the NCAA tournament.
couple games great last tests time win year
It's a great time of the year for all of the teams. To see how we finish, how many games we can win in the last couple of weeks, it really tests your team.
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.
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.
certainly college easier guys inside player stop three year
He was on his way. Player of the Year as a sophomore. He was certainly capable, but who knows? It's easier to stop an inside player because you can put three guys around him in college basketball.
outlived played year
I played the first year (the 1966 season) this place opened. The way I look at it, I outlived this building.
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.
