call
Let's call it what it was. A blowout.
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.
bad call coach hate hurt
It was a bad call on my part. It's something as a coach that you hate to do to hurt your team.
athletes blown call football full nfl team
I think it's embarrassing, ... especially when you're an NFL football team full of professional athletes getting blown out -- which it was. I mean, let's call it what it was: a blowout.
bad best call chance foul given guy hurts job score team tied wrong
I called for a press, but we did a bad job with it and it was the wrong call on my part. We go down and foul a guy and we are never able to get the score tied after that. It hurts when you feel like you've not given your team the best chance to win.
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.
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.
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.
