I have been saying three or four teams the whole time. The last couple of days, we've gotten so much publicity that it's almost been negative.
darn last practice shoot weeks
We've had a lot of practice the last two weeks and it showed today. When we shoot well, we're pretty darn good.
change days great last later name pops selection six sunday sweet team tournament
It's been a great ride. On Selection Sunday our name pops up there, and six days later we're in the Sweet 16. Things change quick. But we're the same level-headed team that went into the tournament last weekend.
against darned hard last open shot year
They're better than they were last year and then they were pretty darned good. It's hard to get an open shot against them.
badly last ncaa team tournament worry year
Last year I think we wanted to be part of the NCAA Tournament so badly we didn't worry about the things that we could control, which is making our team better. That's what we're doing this year.
announce assistant calls coaches last phone soon
The last thing I want to do is take 25 more phone calls from assistant coaches (looking for a job). When I get an assistant coach, I'm going to announce it as soon as I can.
ball few games great last pass sheets team trying worked
If you look over the (statistic) sheets of our last few games, it's been that way. We've worked on it all year, trying to get them to pass the ball and use each other. They really did that well tonight. This was a great team game.
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.
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.
bad execution played second shots three took
Our execution was really, really good, especially in the second half. We only took three bad shots the whole game. We really played unselfish.
execution hard helped knowing today worked
Our execution was good. We worked really hard this week. Not knowing who you were going to play really helped us because we worked on us, and I think it showed today in our execution.
everybody figure figured gotten knows league learned nice six win won
We have done a lot of nice things here in our first six years. We have gotten better every year. We have won a lot of league games. We learned how to win on the road. We've won a league championship. Now we need to figure out how to play well in St. Louis. Creighton has figured that out. That's why everybody knows who Creighton is.
best both fine future wish
Both Jared and Gabe are fine young men, and I wish them both the best in their future endeavors.
