bad both defense floor guys lead offense played poor ready rushed teams
Our guys were ready to play. We played hard. It was just bad execution. We rushed things. Our poor offense lead to our defense deficiency. Both teams battled on the floor and were going hard.
basket earn finishing forced saw tough wing
Keith penetrated and got to the basket very well. Defensively, he made them earn their points, forced them to take tough shots. He's also exceptional at finishing on the wing in transition, which we also saw a lot of tonight.
amazing came feeling fine free happy
It came down to free throws. It's amazing how it's such a fine line. It's amazing how one little thing can go from making you feel happy to feeling disappointment.
good players team
I was a little disappointed with the rebounding, but they're a good team with some very, very good players in the middle.
anyone biggest carry definitely gotten honors predicted proud sam worked
He's definitely gotten better. I don't think anyone predicted he would be all-conference. He's improved, worked hard. He'll work. That's the biggest thing and that's going to carry him a long way. I'm proud of him. And I'm proud of Carl and Sam for the honors they received.
pass position understanding
He's better in every area. Carl's comfortable in his position and understanding of our system. That's a big step. It's one thing to know it, but it's another thing to pass it on to others.
against great second zone
We made some great adjustments against the zone in the second half. We had a little more penetration and movement.
passing shots
We made our first how many shots. Our passing was the thing. If anything, we got the shots we needed.

Our family thanks everyone for their support and prayers and asks for their continued respect and privacy.
confidence front line numbers
Our front line is an interesting group. I'm very comfortable with what they've been doing. I have a lot of confidence in them. They haven't put up a lot of numbers here, but I have confidence in them.
confidence continue continuing expected gaining guys people
Our whole thing has been to continue to improve. Not a lot was expected of these guys by people but they have been gaining confidence and we're continuing to improve.
backup constant expect guys happen minutes plays stepped transition year
Replacing guys has always been a constant in this program. Guys have always stepped up. Carl went from a backup to a guy who plays 30 minutes a game. That's the transition guys are going to have to make. I expect that to happen this year as well.
bring definitely helps talk
Recruits definitely talk about it. You bring them to a game, and they see the environment. It's good. It helps us a lot.
against biggest
Rebounding is our biggest fundamental. It's our biggest emphasis. We didn't get it done against DePaul.
