ask believes charles coming crossing easily full good hitting running speed
The 'X' is usually the 'clear out' guy, ... Charles could easily jog, but he's hitting it full speed and running full speed coming back to the huddle. He doesn't ask for the ball. We've got a lot of crossing routes, but he doesn't say, 'Can I get an X cross?' I think he believes that good things come to those who wait.
agency assist believe discuss hiring improving interview meet minority number ways
We believe this number to be unacceptable, ... I would like to meet with you to discuss the complaints, your interview processes, and ways that IAMG can assist your agency with improving your minority hiring at the Library/Museum facility.
believed best country hope played team unless win
I am confident, and I hope it isn't cockiness, but I told them that I thought we were the only team in the country that could come in here and win this game. I believed that we could if we played. We couldn't come in here and win unless we played our best game.
believe call coach gone lost percent seat sort
No one had ever gone through it. We lost 91 percent of our scoring, and I believe 89 percent of our rebounding. I didn't have any coach I could call and ask, 'What did you do?' We've sort of been going by the seat of our pants.
believe difficult league nine seven teams top
Top to bottom, this is the most difficult I've ever been in. I believe we've got some seven to nine teams in this league that are in the top 64 in this country.
attention believe cause early focus lose pay polls satisfying
It may be satisfying to such a young team, but I don't believe it will cause them to lose their focus because they know it is so early in the season. For me personally, the polls are fine, but I really don't pay attention to where we are ranked.
believe brown certain college decide game great guy hoping illinois larry last monday nba people playing sharing shooting statement truly year
I really do believe Monday night's game will be great for college basketball. Larry Brown 's Pistons last year made a statement in the NBA about playing the game a certain way -- sharing the ball, being a team. .... I'm hoping the way we play, the way Illinois plays, that people will decide that truly is what's most important, not just one guy shooting or one guy high-flying around.
games team
We feel very fortunate, to say the least. First-round games are always difficult. If your team hasn't been through it, they have no idea how big it is.
We feel very fortunate, to say the least.
chance far including kansas last lucky seen struggled
I've seen a lot of teams, including Kansas last year, go far after they struggled in their first games. You have to get by and get lucky sometimes. We have to play better Saturday. We have no hope, no chance if we don't play better Saturday.
rarely watched
I've rarely watched film of T.O. or Jerry,
impressive victory
It was about as impressive of an opening-round victory as I've seen.
amazing good guards guys heck leading though
I've never had that even though I've had two guards who've been the two leading scorers. I've always had other guys who can score. It's amazing what they've accomplished. They've had a heck of a good year.
lately nice played playing
Q's been playing much better lately and I told him he's got to play. I thought Q did some nice things for us. I think he really has played much better.
