game good habit people playing tough work
It was a good game for us to work on rebounding and making some tough plays. We had a lot of people contributing, playing and producing, and that's got to be a habit as we take on these games.
beyond defensive extend game good season stingy ten tournament
It was a good defensive game for us. It was good to see the defensive pressure. It's important to be stingy in the Big Ten tournament and beyond that. Now it's all about how we extend our season and how good we are in the postseason, because that's what it's all about.
great
It's great to see him be so successful.
beat kicked shot
They beat us on a buzzer shot and kicked our tails for 40 minutes. Obviously, they are very, very good.
games
It's about time. We're overdue. We need about 10 more of these games to make up for some of the adversity.
absolutely bench definitely kids super
We were definitely out-hustled and outfought. The kids off the bench did an absolutely super job.
focus team time
We don't have time for it right now. It's not important. What's important is the team and what we have to focus on.
attract fans game pathetic played
A boring, pathetic game like we played doesn't attract fans of any kind.
advanced against assume course game key learning moment national ohio people team urgent
Of course this game is urgent, but I thought we were urgent and in the moment against Ohio State. People assume the team that advanced to the national championship game returned, and that team did not return. We're a young team, and we're learning how to be urgent. The key is to be consistently attacking.
game moving ncaa tournament win
I thought this was the kind of game you have to win in the NCAA Tournament to keep moving (on).
experience four growing people realize team
I think what most people don't realize is that this team has four people with experience (but) I think this team is really growing now.
came herself separated
I would say she came in ready. She has separated herself from her class.
change defense energy focused hopefully hoping key matter playing regard together
I just think the key is to be focused on the things that matter the most, defense and rebounding, playing together and toughness. We're hoping to change the energy in which we play. Hopefully change a lot of things in regard to our play and our focus.
ball contest gave good great grit happy matched test
It was just a great test of character, grit (and) courage. They did get a pretty good look at the end but I was happy with the way we matched up. I did like the contest that Liz gave at the end. That ball was not going in.
