good hurt job none sure
We have to do a good job on their big three, and make sure none of their (other players) hurt us.
below caught good last ncaa played shot team top tough tournament
It was a tough game. They shot well, and we played below average. They have been to the NCAA Tournament the last two years and were an AP Top 25 team before the season. We caught them on a good night.
four good played schedule tribute
We've still survived, which is a tribute to our guys. We've played a good schedule with four high-major teams.
bit good played teams
They're every bit as good as any of the teams we've played if not better in a lot of respects.
build came good home trying
I think this is good for our program. We're trying to build a Nevada, Gonzaga, Xavier, Dayton (program). That's why I came home here.
care good respond
I really like our team. These are good people. They respond so well. They care about each other.
finish
We had them on the ropes and didn't finish them off.
dribble gotta guard
We gotta be able to guard their dribble penetration.
controlled game hammered missed open run slip
We controlled the game for most of it but let it slip away. We missed open looks. We could have hammered them. They got that little run and we never recovered.
depth hard leads negative people pure teams work
People can be negative about the leads we have lost, but I think a lot has to do with pure depth. We work hard to get the lead, but other teams have more depth and they come at you with that.
beat figure mirror ourselves
We have to look ourselves in the mirror and figure out a way to beat them.
board games goes locker somebody teams whoever wins won word
We put on our board (in the locker room) the word 'spurt.' Teams play even. Then somebody goes on a spurt and then another. Most games are won by spurts. Whoever has the most spurts wins games.
key needed team
We needed to clinch Cleveland. That's a key for this team because we are not that deep.
coach great group script since
For us to come in after 17 years of never being in the postseason since Coach Huggins was here, you couldn't write a better script then to play Temple. For a fledgling group like us, to come in and be able to play them is just a great honor.
