banner chance fight god national second thank year
Thank god we have him. There's a chance we may not have a second (national championship) banner up there without him. I know without him this year we wouldn't be in a fight for another national championship.

Rudy is starting to become the player that we think he has a chance to be.
chance everybody final itself ncaa reckoned team
This team is to be reckoned with in the NCAA tournament. This team has a chance to get itself to Indianapolis (site of the Final Four) and, just like everybody else, has a chance to go home.

We'll talk about that. You've seen it. And there's a pretty good chance you won't see it again.
becomes chance eliminate finish game order question season soon special
We still have a chance to have a special season, there's no question in my mind. In order for us to finish up the season the way we have to, we have to eliminate some of those inconsistent moments, because pretty soon every game becomes important, and if you have an inconsistent game, you go home.

bigger chance close clutch crunch guys player seems
We may have guys close to or equal, but no one's been better, ever, at making clutch shots. He's made bigger 3's than any player I've ever had. When it comes down to crunch time, he makes shots. It seems to me the bigger the shot, the better chance he's going to make it.

He's really had a sensational four years with us. This will be their chance to see Rashad in person. We hope he plays exceptionally well.
against ankle chance game minutes plays struggle win
If he plays well, then we've got a chance to win it. If Marcus were to sprain an ankle in the first 10 minutes against Albany, then we'll struggle but we would probably win. After that, it's 50-50 if we'll win a game or not.
chance special
He's got a chance to be a very special player.

We just shut the engine off. You can't go to sleep.

We just shut the engine off. We just couldn't get it back. It's a hard thing to do in sports and I think all of us have seen it and unfortunately an experienced team like this, it shouldn't happen to.

We weren't prepared. We were living on an 11-0 season that meant absolutely nothing because you have to play the next one.
