upset
There have been a lot of similarities with our progression. We upset a No. 1 as they did 20 years ago.
almost anybody freshmen start surprised three
I'm surprised because we start three freshmen and a sophomore. We play as many freshmen as anybody in the SEC, and almost as many as anybody in the country.
bad blamed credit supposed took
In another sense, he wasn't as bad as he was supposed to be. He often took credit for things that he didn't do, or was blamed for things he didn't do.
clear floor horizon market seems trying
In a longer-term horizon it seems clear that OPEC is trying to set a floor for the market again.
bench coming handled hurt proud saying starting
I'm just so proud of the way he's handled starting early, not starting, starting when Tyrus was hurt and then back to coming off the bench without saying a word.
models ways
It's still a ways off but some models have it going right into the Gulf.
ankle biggest determination five game goes maybe might minutes opposed playing rest short time week
The biggest thing with Tyrus may be his conditioning as opposed to his ankle by game time on Thursday. 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.
continues expect factor gas lower pressured slightly
The big X factor is the weather. I would expect to see a slightly lower day if it continues to be pressured by the gas market.
biggest calm challenge final responding team
The biggest challenge right now is just to calm our team down. They know one more win, you're in the Final Four. I think our team is responding well to that.
seniors supposed
That is what seniors are supposed to do.
earn mindset
They know what they want to accomplish. It's a mindset we have right now, and hopefully, we'll earn that by how we play the games.
christmas gave maybe
It's not Christmas, it's New Year's. But maybe we gave them a game.
basketball care commitment confident dealt decide decisions fairly hurry people pursuing request salary strong terms
I'm not pursuing other jobs, but I'm in no hurry to decide anything right now. I'm confident that the people who make those decisions will take care of them. My only request is to be dealt with fairly in terms of salary and a strong commitment to the basketball program.
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.
