might road trip
That's the road trip you have to look back on and think what might be if we got one, or both, of them. We'd be right up there.
cling fatigue helping instead man playing team tendency
When that fatigue hits, you have a tendency to cling to your man instead of helping and playing team defense.
forward games home left looking needs regular road seven team wants win
We have only seven games left in the regular season, and we can't keep looking forward only to the home games. This team needs to win on the road if it wants to get recognized.
chance game last pace win
You just want to have a chance to win the game at the end. So we want the game to be at the same pace as the last time.
against matter nevada realized saw struggled team wins woke
Wins are always OK, no matter what they look like. I realized that when I woke up (yesterday) and saw that Nevada struggled the same way we did against a team from that same conference.
bring depends guys special team willing
It depends on who else we bring (from recruiting). But what made this year's team so special is that we had guys willing to play different positions.
sharp
It disappoints me that we're not as sharp as we should be at this stage. But it's a win.
hit shots
Julian hit the shots and was really slashing without the ball, and was getting some inside-outside stuff.
beat effort full guys hard matter team time
We can't just show up and think we're going to win. We're having a hard time with guys out and all that, but so are they. No matter who's out there, we're the kind of team that has to give full effort or we can get beat by anybody.
came couple dropped fire hit last locker room run shots
We came out of the locker room with a little fire, but it didn't last very long. Kemp hit a couple of shots on us when we were making a run and we dropped our heads.
You know he'll be watching, so we have to look good.
energy game kids
I don't know what you could do different. You got the same game plan, you got the same kids. It's an energy thing they have to do.
carry half last pleased second
I was pleased with the last half of the second half. The first half was a carry over from Nevada.
deserve hoping respond turn
If we don't respond on the road, we don't deserve to go anywhere. But we're in the (WAC) race, so I'm hoping we turn it around here.
