adversity definition sure tough
If we didn't know the definition of adversity before, I'm sure we know it now. (The loss) was tough to swallow.
miss momentum run turning
Ole Miss went on a 14-7 run and that was a turning point. They got some momentum going and we could never get the lead.
feet shots silly
Silly me. I probably should have had him in there more getting shots 70 feet away from the basket.
east four maybe plateau since teams three
Maybe three or four years ago (eight wins) was the plateau and then maybe three or four years ago the Big East had some teams at 9-7 that didn't get in. Since then, I think there has been a little insecurity.
believe claim harm lack offers recruit source state university
Let me emphatically state that no inducements or improper offers have ever been done to any recruit at the University of Arkansas. I believe the source of the claim has a lack of credibility, and I believe it was intentionally done to harm our program.
gave sean valuable
Sean (McCurdy) gave us some valuable, valuable minutes, too.
both freshmen glad help options sean seventh shooting sixth
Sean can help us with his shooting and Cyrus with his rebounding, and both can do other things. I'm just glad our freshmen can be our fifth, sixth or seventh options and not our first or second.
worry
We won?t have to worry about presses any more.
attitude carving jump pushed space
We need to make a big jump in rebounding. We should be a plus-five rebounding team. Rebounding is more of an attitude than anything. We're getting pushed under the rim, and not carving out space for ourselves.
percent seen zones
We've seen some zones this year, but Texas-Pan American will play zone about 80 percent of the time.
continue exactly guys ronnie rule smart support toward wants work
This probably is a smart thing. Ronnie wants to play in the NBA, and this rule is made for guys like him. He wants to find out exactly where he is. We all support him. He'll continue to work toward his education.
bothered definitely far guys inside physical tough toughness
There are some tough guys on this team. They're definitely getting there as far as physical play. It's bothered me that we haven't had that persona, but our inside guys are maturing. Rebounding is a toughness trademark.
close needed
We've been in so many close games. We made some mistakes, but when we needed to we made big plays.
game ncaa win
I think if we can win a game like this, we should be in the NCAA Tournament. That should take us over the hump.
