looked message saying sent tonight win
We have a lot of confidence. I'm not saying we're going to win every game. I'm not saying that at all. I'm saying the message we sent tonight was that we looked like a real team.
looked ought wear
We ought to wear them every game. We looked like Pete Maravich at times out there with the ball.
couple guard looked opened
It looked like Vanderbilt, they weren't going to come out and guard our posts. They were going to back off. Glen made a couple and really kind of opened it up.
basketball good looked minutes team
That first 20 minutes was as good as I've had a team play. We looked like a real basketball team for 20 minutes.
benchmark coach looked program
I never looked at this as a benchmark for our program or a benchmark for me as a coach or a benchmark for our players.
ben great man people send tried
We tried to send people stunting and tried to man up on him, but Ben had great feet.
against ball quick score tried
We tried to score a little too quick against their zone. We got the ball where we wanted, but we tried to score without getting the ball reversed.
man playing stop
We were playing man and couldn't really stop them.
determination five goes maybe might minutes opposed playing rest short week
We might just have to play Tyrus in short stretches. As opposed to playing him 12 or 14 minutes straight, maybe he can just go five and we'll take him out, let him rest and put him back in. The more he plays, the better he'll feel and the more comfortable he'll feel. We'll make more of a determination of that as the week goes on.
field foul free next night percent
We're usually 69, 70 percent at the line. If you're not making field goals, the next thing you try to do is try and make it up at the foul line. We had 28 free throws, but we couldn't make those, either. It was that kind of night for us.
against ball half mean nine patient points team time worked
We scored nine points and had 10 turnovers in the first half against a zone! When I tell the team to be patient I don't mean make 40 passes, just four. Every time we worked the ball around, we got it inside.
coaches eliminate extremely players tried trust
I've tried to eliminate that from my thought process. But I got it. Trust me. I got it from so many people. I got it. I know it was disappointing to us as coaches and to our players and extremely disappointing to our fans.
along ball critical far games good helped holds maybe moments shot shots timely
I've said all along that if our perimeter holds up, we're a pretty good team. So far our perimeter hasn't shot the ball as well as maybe we would have liked, but I think we've made some timely shots in critical moments of games that have helped our team.
games injury kevin lost matter player seven shoe
I've never had a player have an injury like that. Usually it's a matter of tightening up a shoe and gutting it out. We lost Kevin for seven games and he's still not 100 percent.
