allen andre cooper eight game joey march minutes next opportunity players playing ready tried trying
The thing I've tried to tell each of these players is be ready for your moment. What if I only play Andre Allen eight minutes this game because Darius is really playing well? What if this game is better-suited for Kareem Cooper than it is Joey Dorsey? What I'm trying to tell our players is that you have to live with that and march on to the next game, and that may be your game and your opportunity to be the star.
deep game
We're deep and we're also fast. I want the game that way.
create games
We were able to create turnovers and do that to create a gap. There will be other games that we won't be able to do that.
continue games guys
If they can keep these games from being fast-paced games, with the guys they have out there, they can continue doing this. If it's in the 60s, they got a chance.
game kept liked running shots start
I didn't like the start of the game. The first two shots were not how you start a game. What I liked was as the game got going we had a big lead, we never got out of whack. We kept running our offense.
bit coach fast game move obviously
Obviously I didn't make the game fast enough. I didn't coach up to snuff. So, you know, it's a little bit of everything. We move on.
bounce concerned energy game shows supposed texas
To have that kind of energy after that Texas game and to have one day in between shows that we bounce back quickly. We did what we were supposed to do. All I was concerned with was how we guarded, and I thought we were tremendous.
coached fast game played thrown turned
It's not one guy. We played bad, I coached bad, it's everybody. We're all thrown in on this one. We all missed, all turned it over, all didn't play up to snuff. I didn't get the game fast enough, so I didn't coach well enough.
based driving easier finishes games good job lane offense reads running training
It's unbelievable how he finishes games off. We're running an offense that's all based on reads, and I've got to do a better job of training him so those reads are easier for him. The offense is a driving offense - we're going to get in the lane at some point. And it's been really good for us.
defensive game great hard rest
It was a great defensive effort. This game, the rest of the games, we've just got to make the game hard for the other team. We did that today.
biggest dove game missed
The biggest play for me was when Darius missed the 3, then dove for the ball. We're up (six) and that's the game right there.
against beat came everybody game good plan somebody team turned win
It's a good win against a team that was 9-1. If we don't beat somebody by 40, everybody is saying, 'What's going on with the Tigers?' They have scholarships too. They came out and had a game plan on how they were going to play, but they turned it over 19 times.
edge game missed shots
They (UAB) didn't go away, and they had shots to get right back into the game and missed some shots late. I thought the rebounding edge is what put us over the top.
andre born games seemed star today
There's a star born in all of these games and today it seemed to be Andre Allen.
