care gone minds playing stepped tendency understand
I probably should have stepped down a little earlier. Our guys' minds were just gone because what you have to understand is they care about me ... Sometimes when you're playing to try and keep someone's job, you have a tendency not to do anything.
care felt game indiana minds peace playing point stepped tendency three understand weeks
I probably should have stepped down a little earlier. I felt it. Our guys' minds were just gone. What you have to understand is that they care about me, and I care about them, and sometimes when you try to play to keep someone's job, you have a tendency not to do anything. Right now, they're just playing basketball. Three weeks ago, this game probably would be a 20-point (loss). The game at Purdue (a 70-59 Indiana victory) would have been a 10-15 point loss. Right now, we're playing with peace of mind.
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.
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.
coach hyper likes
He's really more of a hyper coach and likes to get into it.
fought great played second
I didn't even think he could go. But he fought through it and played a great second half.
definitely quick ready rest tuesday
Hopefully, he got some rest (Sunday) and he'll be ready to go (tonight). Tuesday is definitely a quick turnaround.
bad figured free happen miss plan second since throw
I figured it would be something bad when (the officials) called me over. Our plan was to miss the second free throw at 0.8. Make the first one, miss the second one. Since we were up two, we had to make the second free throw, because with 2.1, a lot of things can happen in that situation.
