against athletic basketball good nice played
We played very good basketball against an athletic team. It was nice to see us get better in some areas.
challenged good josh tonight
We wanted to keep him yielded. Tonight I challenged Josh Lawrence, who is a very good defender, to do that.
bit good job played second
We played a little bit too slow, a little bit too casual, and didn't do a very good job defensively in the second half. We didn't do a good job guarding Polk.
basketball face good great guys minutes played proud
I'm really proud of how our guys gutted it out. Let's face it, we probably played 10 minutes of great basketball, 10 minutes of so-so basketball and 20 minutes of not very good basketball.
basketball floor freshman good guys player
As a player you want to be one of those guys that's indispensable, someone you need to have on the floor at all times. He's a freshman and he's going to be a good basketball player.
against challenge early felt good high order talented team
It very well may be (too tough). I felt having a young team and a talented team that I wanted to challenge them early and get them to play at a high level. In order to do that, you have to play against good competition.
good great ryan
Ryan had a great night. He is good when he's aggressive.

We've got to find a way to pursue the ball.

I was surprised it didn't sell out in September.
bit somebody stepped surprised won
I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if somebody (seeded) 4 through 9 stepped up and won this tournament.

Obviously, our goal is to play in the NCAA Tournament. But if we can finish in the top three consistently, that's an unbelievable thing. We've done it three straight years.
guarded problem
We're guarding, and we've guarded all year. That's not the problem right now.
besides detroit games guys main mean won
I think we've been in most games -- I mean besides the Youngstown game -- we should have won that Detroit game -- but the main thing is for our guys to be consistent.
foul line shooting six
It had nothing to do with him shooting 8-for-12. It had everything to do with him going to the foul line six times. If he can get to the foul line, he can score.
