couple guys last weeks
Think about that a couple weeks ago the way things were working for us. Last week the way things were looking. This team, the guys on this squad, we never give up.
acting blew everybody far game guys knew looked opportunity plan pull sitting stay
Everyone was sitting around acting like we blew it. Everybody was like, 'Oh my God. We blew our opportunity to win.' But I looked at the guys and said, 'Come on, we have to stay with it. There's no way we come this far to have them take it from us.' We knew our game plan was going to pull us through. That's what happened.
everybody expected guys happy jumping last walk
I was the last one to walk in, and I expected everybody to be jumping around. We were happy about our performance, but guys were like, 'Next game.' We have to keep working.
brian brings everybody guy level losing scrap step
We can't play like (we did), especially when you're losing a guy like Brian who brings so much to the table. You really have to scrap and claw for everything. Everybody had to step up and play a whole different level of energy, and we just didn't have it.
came forget guys helped needed separate team together
It was hard. But we needed that to come together. We were kind of splintered a little bit, and we were going away from the team thing. Guys were going in separate directions. Getting up at 6 a.m., guys could be like, 'Aw, forget this.' But we really came together and helped each other.
guys hole locker main reason team
I let my team down. I apologized to the guys in the locker room. I wasn't even attacking. I'm probably the main reason we were in the hole we were in.
brian couple defense erase job mistakes sit
We have to do a better job defensively. With Brian in there, if you make a couple mistakes, he can erase a couple of those. We have to really sit down on defense and get a couple stops. We were scoring, but we weren't getting stops. We have to buckle down on that.
anybody coach gets gives johnny minutes opportunity playing point waiting
I've been waiting for Coach to give me an opportunity (to play point guard). But if Dedrick is playing like that, we don't need to go to anybody else anymore. Johnny (Wolf) comes in and gives him some minutes when he gets tired, but when he's playing like this, we don't need anybody else.
adding coming couple drew easier wait
Exciting. We've got so much firepower coming back. Adding a couple new guys, especially Drew (Lavender). We can't wait to get him here. It's going to make things a whole lot easier for everybody.
continue excited practice showing
Right now, the way we practice is really showing up on the floor. We're just excited how we're playing. We've just got to continue it.
front ncaa road work
Don't get me wrong, we still have a long road in front of us. We haven't done anything. We have a long way to get to the NCAA tournament. We've got so much work in front of us.
came confidence
We came in with all the confidence in the world we could get this thing done.
attribute came defensive fire flat lack offensive pop
We just came out with a lack of energy. We didn't have that pop that we usually do on the defensive end and on the offensive end. I don't know what to attribute it to. We can't come out flat like that. We have to come out with that fire from the get-go.
definitely
OK, we've definitely done something. I'm not going to take anything away. But we still have two more games.
