forget happened hard seniors staff trying worked
The staff really worked hard at trying to get (players) to forget about what happened Saturday. The seniors then did the rest.
ethic goes man obviously played special work
There's obviously a work ethic that goes into it. (Brunner) is a very special big man who has played here.
pool running workouts
Pool workouts are great, but it's not running up and down the hardwood 94 feet.
appreciate basketball behalf brian commitment continued director efforts extended felt hard hard-work last move moves necessary operations past program progress rich seasons seven six straight successes toward winning wins work
We appreciate the hard work and efforts that Rich and Greg have extended on behalf of this program over the past seven years. With 46 wins in the last two seasons and six straight winning seasons, they have contributed to a lot of the successes we have enjoyed. In my long?term commitment toward the future, I wanted to move Brian to director of basketball operations and felt these moves were necessary for the continued progress of the program.
great iowa opportunity work
I got to work for some great administrators at great institutions, and I had an opportunity to coach great players. Iowa is no different.
absolutely five good leaders-and-leadership left losing perfect players returning work
We're losing five really good seniors. They've been absolutely perfect leaders. They've left a lot for the returning players to work with.
earned happen worked
They've earned it. They worked awfully hard. But there's a lot that can happen in February.
came maybe obviously pushed weekend work
I think we probably came in here as a No. 4 seed, maybe even a No. 5. Because of our work this weekend it's pushed us into a No. 3 seed, which is obviously very special.
appreciate built choosing craig dividends efforts factor forth hard head key paying positive puts recruiting tyler work
Our recruiting efforts have been built on establishing positive relationships, and that was a key factor in Tyler choosing our program. I appreciate the hard work (associate head coach) Craig Neal puts forth in his recruiting efforts. Those efforts are paying dividends for the program.
bit credit handful jeff matter wanting whom work
He was a handful no matter whom it was (guarding him). I thought Jeff made him work a little bit harder. You have to give Vincent a lot of credit but you also have to give Jeff credit for wanting that (assignment).
last leave legacy work year
The legacy (the seniors) leave will last long after this year is over. But we still have a lot of work to do.
empty shoot shot work
You can't have an empty possession, come down and shoot a 20-footer, or take a shot off one pass. You've got to really try and work that defense.
center dominated favor position
We just got dominated on the glass. I thought the center position was really in favor of them.
faith jeff might putting warm
We might play him 5 or 6 minutes, then take him out. Yet Jeff might say that makes it tight, and it's better if he can keep it warm and go. We're putting our faith in him to let us know. . .
