embrace football good playing proud talk team teams
It's something that's been said about us. I sometimes used to get away from it but now we embrace it. Teams often talk about us playing like the Steelers, or as a football team at different times. Now we look at it as a good thing and we're proud of it.
built four good proud students top
It's something we're proud of. Our fans, our students, the Oakland Zoo, they've been a big part of our success. Our students are right on top of you. It's something we did four years ago when we built the building. It's a good situation.
came decisions good great percentage shooting
It was just a big effort. Our shooting percentage was terrific. We just came out and made shots. They were good shots, but I thought we made some great decisions to get there.
beat full glad good ready rest rotation schedule tough
They've had a tough schedule recently, but they beat a very good team. They're very good, and they'll be ready to go. I was glad I was able to get in a full rotation (against Providence) and rest some of our guys, so that everyone is fresh. It's going to be a very tough game.
amazing change decisions game good lose offense outcome percent shoot shot tough
Not often do you lose a game when you shot over 70 percent in a half. It is tough to lose a game when you shoot that. I thought our offense was good and we made good decisions and (had) good looks. Its amazing how one little thing can change the outcome of the game.
changed fell good league normally playing teams testament
Nothing's really changed when you look at this conference. There were so many good teams that teams that would normally get a bye will be playing on Wednesday, but that's a testament to the league and how things fell on tiebreakers.

It's not a surprise. We've done it often. It's a good look for us. West Virginia is smaller and perimeter-oriented. We've played with it a lot. It worked well tonight.

I'm especially proud of the way we battled back and put ourselves in good position. This was a good week for us. We got better and we'll build on this.
came couple game good lack plays
It was a good game that came down to a couple of plays at the end. We came up a little short. It wasn't for a lack of intensity.
assistant coach coaches coaching good guys head jobs looking preparing
I want guys who want to be head coaches. To be a good head coach you have to be a good assistant first. I want our guys looking at head coaching jobs and preparing to be head coaches because that makes them good assistant coaches.
came game good obviously ourselves position proud
At this point, we're obviously disappointed. We put ourselves in a good position at the end of the game but we came up a little short. I'm so proud of how we battled. We got better this week.
days despite fact good last playing stressed three
We weren't playing well despite the fact that we stressed the last three days about getting off to a good start.
against battle came continued east game good ncaa physical shooting team
This was a tough, physical Big East game against a team who I think will be good enough to go to the NCAA Tournament. Our shooting wasn't great, but Marquette had a lot to do with that, so we continued to battle and came away with a big win.
couple game good knew played plays
We did a lot of things well; we battled, we played hard, rebounded well and did a lot of good things, but at the end of the game we knew it would come down to a couple of plays at the end of the game and it just didn't go our way.
