Marcel getting into foul trouble early in the game hurt us. His ability to rebound is something that has made our defense better all year long.

The turnovers were a combination of Washington's defense and us. You've got to know where the traps, the danger zones are, and we didn't stay out of the traps.

They were exceptional. I've never seen them shoot like that. We're the leading 3-point defense team in the Pac-10 and they shot us right out of the fight.

Jason's approach to things now has been great. He's working as hard on defense as on offense. He's into it. This is a big week for him. He's ready to play right now; that's a great frame of mind to be in here on Tuesday.

When I talk about finding a comfortable lineup, I'm serious because last year we went through the same thing. It was a big deal to me early in the (Pac-10) season to be able to say I have a comfortable rotation. And then we lost one guy and it changed.

I've seen since Pac-10 started a greater focus in practice toward the game plan, the scouting report. He's absorbing more. The more anybody invests into something with a commitment; you don't accept failure as easy. You are better prepared to sustain effort and focus. It sure helps us when he plays like that. He's more difficult to deal with.

I've never seen them shoot that well. They shot us right out of the fight.

Ed had a lot of love and appreciation for Oregon State, and he was very much interested in our basketball program. He'd come to practice a couple of times a year, and I'd see him at Beaver Huddles in Salem. It was an honor to get to know Ed. He's one of the first true legends in Oregon State basketball and he'll be forever remembered.

We are going to be very cautious to make sure when he comes back, it's 100 percent. The next time this happens, we may not get him back. His college career will end on the bench. When someone says he's ready, I would keep him out an extra week to make sure he's strong enough.
again chances good minutes per played pleased ratio start team thursday
Brett played 20 minutes on Thursday with two turnovers. We don't have that ratio of turnovers per minutes played on our team right now. He did a really good job. I'm very pleased with what he did, and the chances are pretty good I'll probably start him again on Thursday.
