almost attacking ball block few games huge last maybe mental obviously passing people saw shot zone
We shot the ball pretty well in the first few games last year, and then I think we almost got a mental block when we saw zone. Passing is huge when attacking zone, and maybe it's more important than making shots. Obviously when you make shots, people don't zone you.
anybody four guy happen hit last nine played seven
I thought we played better tonight. There's something to look at vs. the last two times out. We played better defensively. We were tougher. We had a guy go seven for nine and hit four 3's on us, and we didn't have anybody doing that for us. If we don't have that, we can't let that happen to us.

There's humility all over our program. We've been through a lot coming back from the Illinois game getting beat like we did. We don't need to remind ourselves of that every day, but that's clearly in the back of their minds. And these guys, they're hungry. They want to accomplish something.

Every team has a limited life and days like today, you can feel like that life has just ended. The fact of the matter is it didn't. There's more games for us to play. For me as a coach, I've got to figure out how to help my kids get better.

We've gotten some highs this season, and this was a low. We get a chance to play this team again.
bit breaking good happy lift marshall played reason since
I was really happy to see Marshall play as aggressively as he did on the glass. I thought that was a big lift for us, and that's the one reason he scored, too. We've got to have better play from him. It's good to see him kind of breaking through a little bit since he hasn't played as well as of late.
I was not as hands-on as I think I need to be.
