few gave inside last presence today
(Terrell) gave us a presence inside today that we haven't had in the last few games.
both couple defense difficult doubt fortunate fought game good hard home last matter played record road teams trouble unto
Every game is a game unto itself. Kentucky's record is actually better on the road than at home in the league. We know it is going to be a difficult game. It was a difficult game last time. Both teams fought hard and played good defense and had trouble scoring. We were fortunate a couple things did go our way at the end, but I doubt if that will matter Saturday.
deserve games happy last league lost possession three
We had lost three games on the last possession in league play. I'm really happy for our players. They deserve this.
game last year
Last year we were a game or two away. This year we're a game or two away.
basketball carolina last needed played solid south team three win
We got a much needed win at South Carolina on Saturday. I like how our team is playing. We feel like we've played solid basketball over the last two or three weeks.
great last lost people pick players seem seems surprised
It's the same every year. People want to seem to pick (SEC) to be down, but it never really seems like we are. We lost some great players last year, but I think year-after-year you're going to have great players in this league. I'm not surprised in the least.
conference four game games last lose response won
As I told them right after the game last night, we won our first two conference games last year, then we proceeded to lose four of six. Our response to that game is more important than the game itself.
chance felt good hard high recruit tried virginia
We tried very hard to recruit Derrick out of high school. We actually thought we would be right there and have a chance to get him. Virginia got him, but we felt like he was a very good player.
basketball good playing saying team
I've been saying our team has been playing good basketball. We just don't have a lot to show for it.
corey key might plays reason recruit tried
Corey is a real high-energy player. That's one reason we tried to recruit him. He made some key plays for them tonight, and that might have been the biggest.
game good job ran road second win
We did a good job of getting back in the game in the second half, but we ran out of gas. You have to play really well on the road to win in this league. We didn't and they did.
complain played reason
There's not a lot to complain about. He's been a big reason why we've played better.
consistent guys
We've had consistent breakdowns, especially offensively. Unfortunately, some of the same guys are making the mistakes.
gotten obviously
That was one that obviously shouldn't have gotten away from us.
