foul nation shots team
This team makes more foul shots than any team in the nation has taken.
coaches commit convince easier eyes feels gain good kid lifestyle looks mike others sees tyson understand waiting
We go into neighborhoods as coaches and think we can convince a kid that 'son, if you get educated, you'll go to college, have a good job, a car,' ... That's bull. We don't understand that as he looks out of his eyes and sees Mike Tyson and others like him as heroes, he feels everything is instant. He thinks, I can gain a lifestyle without waiting 10, 15 years. It's easier to go out and commit a crime.
car drive tried
We tried to make them play faster. When you drive your car fast, you are going to get in more accidents.
floor guys learn maybe pay teach took win
We try to teach our kids. As much as I want to win a ballgame, I had two guys on the floor that I took off for that reason. Maybe they will learn a lesson. Maybe it will pay off for us later.
ball easily four nobody players shoots
Villanova could easily be No. 1 in the country. There's nobody that shoots the ball as those four players on the floor, not even Duke.
ball defense lead nation sooner translate year
We lead the nation in defense every year and it doesn't translate into wins. Sooner or later, you've got to put the ball in the basket.
allowed bad check class coach dna games manners ought stuff team throw wish
I wish there were some way we could check the DNA on some of these SOBs that are allowed to come to games and show bad manners and throw stuff at Duke's team -- a class coach and a class team. Why is it that we find that all over the country, not only in college, but in pros? You ought to be able to check the DNA of an idiot, and do something about it, so you'll not be able to see it again.
arm broken bryant people saw weeks
Bryant was back in 2 1/2 weeks when everyone thought his arm was broken. It didn't look so broken to people who saw him play.
destroyed everybody gun ran
We ran into the rifleman. They put it all together, and they just destroyed us. Everybody had a gun but us.
good talent
I think our talent is as good as anybody's in the league.
I think he makes the difference. I don't know if it's a significant difference, but it's the difference.
answers good players questions team
Our players on the outside, when they make baskets, it answers a lot of questions for us. When we don't make baskets, we're not a good team at all.
beating capable committee looks team top win
I think we have to win our tournament. Normally, a committee looks at how you finish. They already have us down as a team that's capable of beating some top teams.
coming floor maybe mean memories
I think this could mean a lot of things, ... Maybe I've been here too long. But I think there are a lot of memories coming off that floor tonight.
