bounce changing four good guys hit hurt job letting needed
We needed to know where he was every time. He hit four 3s in Laramie, and it hurt us badly, so our guys were there on the catch, and we wanted to make him bounce a little bit. We did a good job of changing defenses and not letting him get into a rhythm.
based earned five guy guys john playing potential praised rewarding seniors stayed
I'm not John Wooden, but he wouldn't play a guy based on potential or stats. Five seniors have stayed and they are playing for money. Five years ago I would be praised for rewarding guys for what they earned and not for what their stats say.
air bother felt great guys job letting played
It's so deflating. What I felt like our guys did a great job of was not letting that bother them. I think we played through Air Force's toughness.

behind excited game guys knock months teams thinking utah
I don't think any of our guys are thinking about that game because the teams are so different now. We're 10 months removed. We were excited about being able to knock off Utah two times in a row, but I think that's long behind us.

We've got to avoid the road blues. We've got to avoid getting down early. We've been playing from behind the last 140 minutes of basketball on the road. We led Kansas State at half (which eventually was a 68-56 loss on Nov. 23), and we haven't played with the lead since.

I think Trent is going to be one of the best players in this league when it's all said and done.
account kyle luxury scouting
Kyle is one of those junkyard dog-type players. He is one that not many will account for in the scouting report. He is a luxury to have on the team.
air anyone balanced beat diego force good hold league played san state team time
From Day 1, I have said that this league is very balanced and anyone can beat anyone. At the time we played them, I thought Air Force was as good a team as there was in the league. Now I think San Diego State . . . has to be the front-runner, and I think they will hold on.

Having more people in town to see us is huge. Having games on TV locally is real critical to our entire success.
