family gets hits public runs soon ways
I think there are some things that you feel personally, from a family standpoint, that when it hits the public it runs a whole different avenue. And it gets out there in ways that shouldn't even be out there. I'd just as soon keep the whole thing personal.
decent gave jeff leads offensive plays shooter shut wants
Jeff plays all 40 minutes, leads us on the offensive end, but he wants to try to do what he can to shut down their shooter and he did a decent job. He gave us a chance.
best either guarded hard jeff minutes played plus secret stop
Jeff played all 40 minutes plus guarded their best player. He got going, and it was hard for them to stop him just like it was hard for us to stop Vincent. I don't think there was any kind of secret on either side.
brown imposed jeff job less
Jeff Horner has imposed his will on this tournament. I thought the job he did on Brown was outstanding. What he did (against the Gophers) was no less than incredible.
imposed jeff
Jeff Horner has imposed his will on this tournament.
good hard jeff players
Jeff can get going. Jeff's a very good player. And when good players get going, they're hard to stop.
hard jeff minnesota particular stop
Jeff can get going. I don't think it was any particular thing that Minnesota didn't do or that we did. It was just hard for them to stop him, like it was hard for us to stop Vince.
attention penn state
Penn State got our attention at Penn State.
best defense good guys played
Our guys were just so much more active. We have played awfully good defense all year, but this may have been our best 40-minute effort.
best guard hard parker seen shoot
Jabari Parker is one of the best, if not the best, I've seen on tape. He's so hard to guard. You've got to guard from 23 feet. He can shoot it, or he can go one-on-one from there. He can post. He's so fast and long.
enthusiasm excitement guys unified weekend
I think it's great. You never like to lose. But I think because of the loss, the guys know what they have to do. There is more sense of an urgency. They've been unified the whole time. But I sense more excitement and enthusiasm over the weekend than any kind of pressure.
goes opens percent
It goes without being said how important he is to our offense. Him being 100 percent opens things up for us defensively.
came four maybe picked weekend
I think we came here as a four seed, maybe a five, but what we did this weekend picked us up.
defending defensive effort exciting good great improvement job team
I think we are a better defending team. I still think we have a long way to go and we have done a lot of improvement in that area. That is exciting because I think we have done a pretty good job through 17 games. All-in-all it has been a great team effort in the defensive end.
