alley good hands
It's going to be a good old-fashioned alley brawl for 40 minutes. We'll have our hands full.
commitment fathom given great guy icon sad wish
It's a sad day in the Big Sky. Mick's an icon there. He's a great guy and I wish him the best. I can't even fathom the commitment that he's given to that institution.
ahead experience fought guys halftime helped last moral victories year
I told our guys at halftime the most important thing is that we fought for 40 minutes. There are no moral victories to being ahead at halftime. I think the experience more than anything from last year helped us through this one.
needed remember today
Today was the first day that I can remember in a lot of years that I needed a nap.
bring confident seem state thinking time whether year
A lot of those C-words aren't real predominant in my thinking right now, whether it's comfortable or confident or whatever. It doesn't seem to be my state of mind. It's that time of year where if you don't bring it you're not going to be playing.
conference goal stage
At least from our conference there's not a really big stage for us to play in. This is the goal -- to get here.
against chance game knock league three top winning
This isn't a knock against Nevada, but it's a game that we have a better chance of winning than going against the top three seeds. Our league was a lot better this year.

found happy needs win
He's found his niche. Defensively he needs to make some strides, as do the other guys. I'm pretty happy offensively but the way you win championships is with defense.
knowing lack surprising
(The lack of recruiting) is surprising knowing what he has accomplished.
balance center contact move terms time
I know I wouldn't have wanted anything to do with him, in terms of guarding him. His center of balance is very low. He explodes up, and typically there's contact when he's making his moves. And most of the time ... he didn't move a whole lot when there was contact and we, unfortunately, were the recipient of that blow.
figure level next sooner
He's really, really good. We need to figure out a way to get him to the next level ? the sooner the better.
guys together
I don't really feel like there are mismatches in this league, especially when you're on the road. Weber's got some guys who can really play; they just haven't put it together at the same time.
approach dig hard hat
I just want to go at it with a workmanlike approach where everybody's going to put on their old hard hat and dig in for 40 minutes.
