We're not thinking about the NCAA tournament. We're thinking about playing a game at Ole Miss. Period. It doesn't do any good to start all that speculation. It's way too early.

I tried to explain to them that this could get ugly this year. When they start taking bad about Daddy, just hang in there.
high late maturity ron school starting step unique ways
Ron Steele is starting to step up in ways that he did in high school with his team. With maturity comes some aggressiveness, especially late in the game. He's a unique person and he will find a way for you to win. He's done that for us this year.
against couple good loose start zone
He got loose against the zone and made a couple of shots. He got off to a real good start and I thought that was the key.
against couple games good last loose shots start zone
His last two games he was 2-for-15 from the field. He really concentrated on his shooting. For us to be good you can't take the shots away from him. He got loose against the zone and made a couple of shots, he got off to a real good start and I thought that was the key.
chuck gives lead positive roll start team though today winning
Chuck will still lead this team even though he'll be on the sidelines. Winning always gives you a lot of confidence. We are going to start today and we are not going to roll over. We are not going to make excuses, pout and whine. We are going to buckle down, be positive with one another and play.

We've beaten the top three teams in the (SEC) East and the top three teams in the West, and I don't know too many other teams that have done that. The bottom line is we need to keep winning.
We got what we wanted. It just didn't go down.

We're going to leave this game here - we're not taking this one with us. We didn't play very well today, and Mississippi State was terrific.

We're not good enough to look past anybody or have letdowns. Every team we play can absolutely put it on us when we're not playing well or at a high level.

We've got great fans, terrific fans and you don't want to let the actions of one person ruin a night or have something bad happen.

We knew they'd make a run, come back at us a little bit. They're too good of a team, too well coached, but our guys were able to respond to their run and extend the lead back up there.

We're 7-6, lost our best player and we're a jump shot away from being in the Sweet 16. They overcame a lot.
