boston bounce college coming easy ready saturday team tough
It won't be easy on Saturday with a tough Boston College team coming in here, but we will have to bounce back and be ready to play.
beat defensive dribble easy fight good harder job work
They beat us with the dribble penetration and got easy shots, and when they did miss, we did not do a good job on the defensive glass. We have to fight more and work harder on getting defensive rebounds.
beyond connection easy feet felt guy help immediate mature
As an incoming coach, I couldn't think of a better guy to help us get our feet on the ground. I just felt an immediate connection with Jeff. I find him so easy to like -- he is mature beyond his years.
almost came difference easy either possession today
Nothing came easy today for either team. The difference sometimes is almost an illusion. Sometimes it's a possession here, it's a possession there.
consuming easy game invest tends
Absolutely, without any question. It's never easy to lose, you invest so much of yourself into every game and it tends to be so consuming that it's always difficult. It doesn't come easy for any of us.
allowed composure confidence easy great guys line poise
We just went to the line with great poise and composure and it allowed us to keep scoring. We have great confidence in our guys when they go to the stripe. It's not easy to do all the time. It's different in OT and on the road.

I kind of played Ping Pong in my mind with what to do.
defend difficult
It's so difficult to defend them. They are so talented.

Each situation was different. There were a couple that we really did get some good looks and we just didn't cash them down. There were some that we didn't get nearly the look we would have liked and some others we didn't knock down.
games guys lost takes won
Everyone of those games that we've won we could have lost ... we've just had guys make plays. Our guys are doing what it takes right now.
arizona coach leap plateau program quantum similar stage struck successful trying
Not that I'm trying to put myself on the same plateau as coach Olson, but it struck me that he was very successful at Iowa, a well-established program in the Big Ten, and he made a quantum leap to Arizona at a similar stage in his career.
balanced best offense score simplify variety
The best part of our offense tonight, if you want to simplify it, is that we were able to score in a variety of ways. We have a balanced team.
adversity endure few groups grow last people season team type year
There's very few people or groups that don't have to endure some type of adversity before they grow from it. I think most every season has got that element. Last year our team responded really well.
glad sorry
I'm glad we did it. I'm sorry we didn't do it sooner.
