advantages chance explain far men outweigh senior top tried
I've tried to explain to (Davidson) the advantages of him as a senior here, which I think would far outweigh any gamble. He's got a chance to be one of the top big men in the nation.
beaten east nobody teams three top
The thing for us, we've beaten the top three teams in the East (Division) and we've beaten the top teams in the West. Nobody else in our league, I think, has done that.
defense defensive game key stops sure team teams top won
I think they're a top 15 team in the country. I'm not sure there are 15 teams better than them. We had key defensive stops at key times. Collectively, the defense won the game for us.
beaten bottom east line teams three top
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're going to win, 100 percent. We've got a lot of work left to do to reach our goals. We're not going to take our foot off the gas pedal at all.

Elizabeth and I are going to pledge, personally, one dollar for every fan in attendance. I'm hoping to write a check for $10,000 that night. We are encouraging others to either match that gift or just give whatever they can. Maybe it's 50 cents or a quarter for everybody in attendance. Hopefully that can be something that will motivate others to do the same thing.
advance team watch
Florida's a team we're going to watch advance through the tournament.
chance eighth excited guys highly pose problems ranked team third tremendous underrated upset
First of all it's going to be a tremendous challenge. They are ranked third in the RPI and eighth in the AP. They are very underrated and will pose problems for us. On the other hand, our guys are very excited about having the chance to upset a team that is highly ranked.
guy guys practiced team throwing
Felix is the only guy on the team that can make the pass. We practiced it and had guys throwing it all over the gym.
figure team trying within
There's still things within our team that we're trying to figure out. We need to play better.
attention causes factor minute morris pay problems
Randolph Morris was a factor from the tip. You could tell from the first minute that he wanted to make a difference, and he did. He causes you problems while he's on the floor, and you have to pay attention to him.
absolutely couple game minutes took
Brewer for a couple of minutes just absolutely took the game over.
