care charles expected friday game guys hill last practices ready respond saturday
Charles doesn't care if the game is physical. But some guys respond differently. I thought after our practices last Friday and Saturday that Hill and Townes were ready to play like All-Americans. That's what I expected to see Sunday, but it didn't happen.
cases gary guard influence point positive
Gary has been a positive influence. He always simulates the other team's point guard in practice, and in many cases he's a better player.
few fighting fights-and-fighting georgia record
Georgia was fighting for their lives. They wanted to get to the NIT. I think a .500 record is enough (for that), but they may feel they need a few more wins.
conference game georgia good leading rebound running stops team
Georgia is the leading team in the SEC, in conference play, in steals. We have to be smart. We need to rebound the ball, get a good running game going and get stops on defense.
aggressive careful created defense encouraged georgia guys halftime offense patience picked second transition
Georgia is a very aggressive team, and we had to be careful not to get out of our rhythm. At halftime I encouraged our guys to have more patience if the transition (opportunity) wasn't there. But our defense really picked up in the second half and created some offense for us.
guard happy point shake
I'll probably shake some things up. I wasn't happy with our play at the point guard spot.
felt home ncaa pressure wants
I know as much pressure as I've felt (to get to the NCAA tournament), they've felt the same amount. I know how important that is for Eric, but Jonathon, being from Arkansas, he wants to do it for his home state.
commitment credit deserve good hope kids seniors special three
I hope it's a really special night. All three of our seniors are good kids and they've done a lot. I think they deserve a lot of credit for their perseverance, commitment and character.
I really don't know what Tubby told them at halftime, but they were a completely different team.
certainly second team
I really don?t know what Tubby told them at halftime. But that certainly was a different team in the second half.
care senior
I'm disappointed because he's a senior and you've got to take care of business.
hunt miss played team
I'm disappointed in the loss, but I'm more disappointed in the way we played. Give Ole Miss credit. They played like a team in the hunt for it all.
basket free pushed rebounds situations supposed throw tired underneath
I'm tired of free throw situations where we're supposed to be getting those rebounds and we're getting pushed underneath the basket and we're not getting them. And a lot of times he's the culprit. It just isn't acceptable.
chance free gave rebounds situations six throw tired
I?m tired of free throw situations where we?re not getting the rebound. And he?s been a culprit. But in fairness, he had six rebounds today. I gave him one more chance and he responded.
