age amazes constantly definitely great listen looks people perspective pick
There is definitely something God-given in him that enabled him from a young age to pick the right people to listen to. It constantly amazes me. ... Because of all those people, he's got a great perspective on life. He looks at the big picture.

The timing of this is incredible. I know it looks like we really planned this well.

It's his choice. He looks great. His vision is a lot better.
black looks poked
It's unbelievable. If you look at him, he doesn't even have a black eye. He just looks like someone who got poked in the eye. It's a little watery, but it's not even swollen.

We had a couple of looks that went in and out. That was our chance. You only get so many opportunities and we didn't take advantage and they closed us out.
coming decide deep enthusiasm excited goal goes hoping looks matched slow time toward
I don't want to slow him down at all right now because he's excited about the possibility of coming back. I know he looks at it as his goal and I don't want to take away his dream. And if he does decide to play, I'm going to let him. I'm hoping as time goes on, his enthusiasm is matched with some deep thinking, which I think it will be, and then we look more toward the future.

The bad news is, he's still pretty ill. He's got a high fever. He's still feeling the effects of tonsillitis. We don't know when we're going to get him back.
bothered confidence great last nice senior strong tournament year
That is nice for him, and last year in the tournament he struggled. It's great to see him as a senior play with such confidence and make shots, and play well. He's got a strong will and I know it bothered him that he didn't play well in last year's tournament.
failure fear minutes whatever
They just don't fear failure. They've been through so much. They're going to play you for 40 minutes and whatever happens, happens.
