impressive victory
It was about as impressive of an opening-round victory as I've seen.
anybody basketball college country defense impressive leads remember scoring shoot since somebody time year
I can't remember anybody in my time in college basketball averaging 27 or 28 a game. It's been a long time since I was in school. Every year there's somebody that leads the country in scoring averaging 27 or 28 a game, but his team's usually not very good. J.J. being able to do that and shoot the ball as effectively as he has with the other team's defense aimed at him is about as impressive as it can be.
felt game impressive last night seen shooting team
Last night was about as impressive an opening-round game that I have ever seen a team play. I mean, I felt like they were shooting about 85 percent. They were guarding. They were doing everything.
game impressive last night seen team
Last night was about as impressive an opening-round game as I've ever seen a team play. They were so impressive last night, I was dumbfounded.
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.

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.

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.

attention chairs coach five full likes onto pull
Every coach likes to have his team's full attention during timeouts. We get out there and the chairs are chained together, so you can't pull five chairs out onto the court.
anyone bit craig heck played since slow smith start
Craig Smith was sensational. But really it was their whole club. They're just a heck of a team. I know they got off to a little bit of a slow start at 0-3 in the league, but they've played as well as anyone since then.
