I don't know why (Kentucky's) kids make shots. Shooting gets contagious, and Kentucky has started getting contagious four games ago.
difficult hate leading obvious
I hate it for him. And it's made it more difficult for us. It's obvious he would've been our leading scorer. But some things, you can't help.

He was around the basketball all night long.

He had to play into this role. There's a lot of responsibility that comes with (it). Your best player needs to be your hardest worker. Once he realized that, he's been more consistent.

He brings the same attitude every day. Everything you'd want in a player from a mental standpoint, he has it.
bench both couple game last miss needed plays reflected special together total
For the last couple weeks, I thought we were getting better, even if it wasn't reflected in the win-loss column. We put a total game together tonight, both offensively and defensively. We needed our bench to play, because Ole Miss plays a lot of guys. We had a special effort.

For the most part, we couldn't have done a better job on Steele.

For the first time all year long, that team whipped us.

I don't think Vanderbilt's the place you go to heal up very often.

I doubt he plays again this season, with a groin muscle and pneumonia.

I needed more than one. When they got three or four stepping up, I needed more than one.

I'm awful proud of that win, especially because of the effort. I thought it was our ability to defend. I thought we took it up a notch (in) that second half.

If we can come out of there in any form of survival, that's big.
bad gotten kid
He's probably gotten more opportunities than a kid who's a bad person. Walt's not a bad person.
