four guys standing team tonight
It was very frustrating to see us play like that. I told our guys that I didn't know who that team was out there tonight ? four guys standing around while one guy went one-on-one. We didn't play our game.
close guys maybe pressure seen
I thought maybe we could do it. I've seen our guys get hot. But we could never get close enough to put pressure on them.
guys weeks
Now that that's over -- it's been a long two weeks -- it's about these guys right here.
best dollars extra few gotten guys officials thousand top
It's a lot of guys we had that were our top officials that just went away because they could make 6, 7, 800 dollars more going to a different league. Our league's gotten so much better. There's so much at stake. You don't want to, for a few extra thousand dollars, not do what's best for your league.
forget guy hitting night senior shot
You never forget a night like that, senior night and a guy hitting a shot at the buzzer.
game good guys notice simple supposed
You don't want to notice them. You don't notice the really good ones. Those guys ref the game the way it's supposed to be called. Simple as that.
asking close guys pressure
I was just asking our guys to get it close and put the pressure on them.
close guy guys next night points rely teach win
I think that's the way to the teach the game. I want to be balanced. I don't want to have to rely on one guy to get 18 points every night or two guys to get 18 and 16. That's why we were able to win so many close games, because one night it was Paul, the next night it was Sean. The next night it was Kyle.
four guy hands holding kept team telling whose
I just kept telling the guys, 'I don't know whose team that is out there, but it's not us on offense,'... Four of them holding their their hands up and one guy going one-on-one -- it was a little frustrating.
almost guys half high level perfect played tennessee took
If you look at the numbers, we almost played a perfect half offensively. It took that, because I thought Tennessee played at a high, high level (Saturday). I thought they played really good. Our guys just wanted it.
closing cover four good ground guy might minutes playing running shot sudden turned
The first four minutes we got any shot we wanted. Then they turned it up. The thing about SIU... is you might think it's a good look and then all of a sudden there's a guy running at you and closing and playing it and with unbelievable effort. The ground that they cover is just amazing.
continuing expect focus guys mean practice stay
The guys have been pretty shielded from it. I expect practice to go well and our focus to stay where it is. I don't see us changing. That doesn't mean we're going to play great. But I expect us to because we're continuing to practice well.
hurt selection shot
Our shot selection hurt us in the first half, hurt our defense, and that was really disappointing.
hurt selection shot valiant
Our shot selection hurt us in the first half. After that I thought we (gave) a valiant effort.
