basketball effort everybody floor good hard time tonight
I'm disappointed with our effort tonight. Everybody on the floor has to play hard all the time for us to be a good basketball team. Tonight that wasn't the case.
came character game punched recover seen team type
I never seen this coming. You know, I never seen this type of game coming, especially the kind of team we are, the kind of character we have. But, you know, you never say 'never.' They came out and they just punched us. We didn't recover from it.
clean guy
I need to get him on my team. This guy was so clean with his fundamentals, and defensively.
ready shoot sure
I'm not sure (why we started slowly), but defensively I thought we did enough to keep us in the game. We were just not ready to shoot the basketball.
deserve players upset
I'm not upset about it, not disappointed about it. I think they need that. I really do, because these players deserve better.
against change game hoping illinois liked michigan played since
I'm hoping that the lineup change will get our mind-set going in the right direction. I haven't liked the way we've played since the Michigan game (Jan. 3). We played well defensively against Illinois and that's about it.
floor focused good middle staff student students
Not once did any student say anything to me or my staff or team. They're focused on their team. More than anything, students want to go to the middle of the floor to their team. I don't know if it's good or bad.
effect taken year
It's really taken effect on our players, not just this year but every year I've been here.
good player
Slaughter I know is a very good player for them.
floor honest middle
That's a surprise, to be honest with you. But I think the students, more than anything, want to go right to the middle of the floor to their team.
below poor
If you're a poor rebounding team, you should at least get 25. We got 18, so we may be below poor.
becomes crime function generates market observed paranoid perception prestige proves security social threat william
In the first place, the market provision of 'security' generates its own paranoid demand. 'Security' becomes a ... prestige symbol. Secondly, as William Whyte has observed of social intercourse in New York, 'fear proves itself'. The social perception of threat becomes a function of the security mobilization itself, not crime rates.
decision job love rick school whether
I just said that because I know the love (fans) have for this school and for the program. Whether it happens, it's up to Rick Greenspan. It's not my job to make the decision for him.
bowl good send seniors win
I really wanted to send the seniors off on a good note, with a win in a bowl game. But it's not going to happen.
