good hit kevin maybe played shoot shots smart stopped team
We started to shoot too quickly, maybe we played too smart and stopped attacking. We had good shots and didn't make them and that other team was charging. Then Kevin hit that big shot we really needed, the big dagger.
good looking playing southern team
When you play a team like Southern Illinois, you're looking in the mirror. They are a very good team that has had a very good season, or else we wouldn't be playing them.
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.
good
We just try to get good shots. We take what's given.
both final good louisville past pitt played prepared thursday
What's good about it is we played both Pitt and Louisville the past two weeks. We'll be prepared to make the final adjustments Thursday afternoon.
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.
awful fans good vibe
I don't do an awful lot of that vibe stuff. It's good for our fans that they've been down there before.
defense good heard score
We heard a lot about their defense, and it is flat-out terrific, but we play pretty good defense too, and we've been able to score on a lot of good teams.
beaten felt good quality win
It felt like 10 years ago that we had beaten a really good team. We didn't have that quality win yet.
against certainly dunk giant good league merit player playing realize
I think he has to dunk on you, like two times, before you realize you're playing against a giant of a man. Hicks is as good a player as there is in the league and certainly a player who will merit (All-Big East) first-team considerations.
clinic complete developing good kevin playing
I thought we put on a pretty good clinic for most of the game. Kevin is really playing well and developing into a complete player.
bit came character defense good guards kevin pitt realize shots took tried
Kevin came in here on a mission. I thought we were a little bit out of character at Pitt. We probably tried to do a little bit too much and probably didn't realize what good defense Pitt plays. We took shots we thought were good and they weren't because Pitt guards you.
against beat both good successful
We have been successful against a No. 1 and a No. 2 seed, and that's pretty good to beat both in the same year.
call good jersey knew tough
We know that they're going to play good defense. We call it the New Jersey defense, the strong, tough defense. We knew that they were going to play that way.
