capable defend defense players
We're going to have to defend them. All of their players are capable of big numbers. Our defense is going to be tested.
We're back. But I don't think we were ever out of it.
doubted people year
We started out the year and people doubted us.
discuss doctors opportunity sit tests time until
Until we get through those tests and doctors have had time to sit down and confer with Kayla and with her family, I don't think we're going to have any answers. Until we can get those evaluations, I don't think we have any opportunity to discuss anything else.
fun players throw weapons
We are not a one-horse team. We are going to throw 10 to 12 players out there. When we can do that, especially when we are flat, it is fun to see all the different weapons that we have.
athletic great kids success
We're having great success with it. I think it has a lot to do with our talent. We've got some kids who are pretty athletic and play very hard.
downs finish good hard learned lessons practices regular season taken ups
There are ups and downs in every season. It was hard to finish the regular season that way. At the same time, I think good lessons were learned and we've taken a lot of that into our practices this week.

We didn't think the game was out of hand at all. We put pressure on the basketball, denying lanes. The front line was trying to do a great job defensively and it all worked.
good sign state
Our state has a lot of good kids. You can't sign them all.
fans
Our fans give us a lot of energy, and we play better.
against change fans people ready san
Our fans are ready for a change in venue. Nothing against HP Pavilion or San Jose, but people like variety.
basketball chance everybody figure grab knows opposite percent players rebounds shoot
I think everybody in basketball knows that about 70 percent of the rebounds go opposite of from where you shoot it. So we just figure if you get more players on the opposite side, we've got a chance mathematically to grab a lot more boards.
defense pack road team win
I tell the team we have to pack our defense and rebounding for road trips. Those are things you have to do well to win away from home.
doubt outing usc worst
I think USC was our worst Pac-10 outing of the year. I think some of that had to do with USC, no doubt about it. But a lot of it had to do with us.
