We're trying to find the right combination to make us comfortable. I want guys to be aggressive, but I want them to be smart in doing that. Just way too many turnovers.
battle deal depth guys height lack lead stop took trying vulnerable
The deal right now is our perimeter defense. We battle for a while and the lack of depth and height is killing us. Guys are trying, but the guys we are trying to stop are the lead guys in the conference. And Lamar always took that assignment. We've been vulnerable there.

You're trying to do things to him that people have been trying to do to him his whole life. He's as quick as all get-out and he's as strong as all get-out, he's smart and he's skilled. Unless you can be bigger than him and jump on his top shoulder and not let him around you, he gets where he wants.

I've seen since Pac-10 started a greater focus in practice toward the game plan, the scouting report. He's absorbing more.

He's more difficult to deal with.

aaron bit changes definitely great lead nice star
It would have been nice to go down and have the lead one time. That sometimes changes the mind-set - you look at it a little bit different. But we don't know what would have changed. Aaron made two great plays. He was definitely the star of the game.

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.
