defend grab kids playing position rebounds tried
We've tried a lot of kids in that position - sometimes playing them out of position. We've got to find someone who can get in there, defend and grab some rebounds for us.
against beat coming game hurt identify looking post zone
We didn't identify Dozier coming into the game and his penetration hurt us. Then, they started looking post to post against our box-and-one and that's how you beat any zone defense.
again came difference good nights played slow teams
We played two good teams on back-to-back nights and we played well. But we came out slow again and that was the difference in the game. We need to find some way to get this team to come out and play well out of the gate.
against fake felt pump
It felt like the world was against Robbie tonight. He wasn't getting his footwork right on his shot. Then when we told him to pump fake and set up a teammate, he traveled.
great offering screaming supply time
From our side, it's not a great time to be long on the curve. There's a lot of supply out there. The market's not offering a lot of screaming value.
gone growing guy hate heading lose pains
You hate to lose a guy like Ted. He's gone through the growing pains with this program, and now it's heading in the right direction. A lot of that is because of Ted.

But our execution still needs a lot of work. We still have too many drops in our concentration level.
bench direction kids starting step tonight understand unselfish
I think the play from the bench tonight is a step in the right direction. Our kids are starting to understand that's an unselfish thing they can do for Galesburg basketball.
direct earlier game last night reflection short shots slow step tough wholesale
I thought we were a step slow all night - that's why I did those wholesale substitutions. We had that tough game last night and our shots were short tonight, which is a direct reflection of being tired. I probably should have subbed a little more earlier in the game.
form gave kid laid needed spark triple
He was completely laid out. The kid is a triple jumper, and he needed that form to go for that ball. He really gave us a spark with his energy.
athletic front night saw scouting
He was getting to the front of the rim all night on us. We saw that on the scouting report, but he's a little more athletic than what I thought.
leader plain team
He's the leader of this team - plain and simple.
front fun guys name playing team
All the guys are doing what they need to for the team and that's fun to watch. They're playing for the name on the front of their jerseys, not the ones on the back.
