direction excited games good national possibly speaks teams television top unless year
We're very excited about our television schedule. To go from one or two national games a year to possibly double-digit games on national television is good news, but you can't get on television unless you play the top teams in the country. It speaks well about the direction of our program.
game imagined intense
I would never have imagined that. I don't know if this game can be any more intense than it is right now.
defense excellent game great open played shots
(Marshall) played a great game and they're getting better every day. I thought they just played excellent defense on us. We did all of the things we wanted to do to get open shots and they just didn't go in.
drive father games gym heck jerry listen million mountain people saw truck west
I have had 1,000 people tell me that they used to go in a pick-up truck with their father and drive up on a mountain and listen to the games on the radio. We must have had a heck of a gym because I have had a million people say they saw Jerry West play.
game good luck players shot
Tonight's game wasn't about who had better players or better coaches. That shot was all about luck. We had some good luck and they had some bad.
attack game inside learned outside percent rare scoring shoot success syracuse
We learned at Syracuse that we had to attack inside and outside for scoring success. It's rare that you see a game where we shoot twenty-some percent (from 3-point range) and win.
college game great hotter shot
It's the great equalizer. The college game has never been hotter than it is right now, and the three-point shot has been a big part of that.
difficult florida game great hard league south textbook type win
It wasn't, certainly, a textbook game of basketball. This is the type of league ... it's going to be so hard to win on the road. I thought South Florida just had a great game plan, and really made it difficult for us to do anything.
basketball brought ended game great memories moment shooting virginia west wish
It was a great basketball game and it brought back memories of when we were shooting so well from the outside, a great moment in West Virginia history. I just wish it could have ended up with a win.

It was painful at times. I've watched bits and pieces of the whole game several times this week and it was a tremendous basketball game and they just kept coming back.
against brings game gives might miners saturday trapped watching week
Those miners trapped a week ago Saturday might well have been watching our game against U.C.L.A., if they could have. At the very least, it gives you perspective. It brings you back to earth.
games intangible road season sort wearing
There were some games when we were on the road and I didn't think we had the right attitude. Did we have the right energy? Was the season wearing us down? I don't know. It's sort of an intangible thing.
baby basketball caught game healthy prefer seem
This is a pretty big event. It makes basketball seem like nothing. If he's caught between games, or he can not make a game because of the delivery, then we'll just play on through it, and get better as a team. That's what happens. We'd prefer a healthy baby much more than a healthy game.
attack country game hope kids knowing opponent squeeze team
I think our kids don't know any different right now. So, we just attack each game knowing our opponent is a top-ranked team in the country and we hope we can squeeze out more wins.
