al continues help point rebound starting
I think Al is getting better and better (in the point area). He's starting to rebound better and better at times and if he continues to do that, I think it will help us.
bangs defends help rebounds weight work
But when you look at what he does, it's more football-related than basketball. He bangs in there, he rebounds well, he defends well. The work he does in the weight room, the sprints they do (in football) those things help him for what we need him for.
playing
We were out of energy. Playing Thursday-Saturday is a joke.
address luxury
We will not have that luxury this year. But we will address it in other ways.
brutal mouth tried
I've tried to just keep my mouth quiet. It is a brutal, brutal, brutal schedule. And if you go through everyone's schedule, which I've done, there's no one even close. But so be it.

I've said all along there were six teams capable of winning the Big Ten, and that hasn't changed. Iowa has its work cut out for it, but they've helped themselves a lot this week winning at Indiana and beating Michigan State at home.

I've been in his shoes and know what he went through. They did a good job in the first half.
change deal good team
I've never had a real good team have so little depth. There's nothing we can do to change it. We've just got to deal with it a little better.
good team
I've never had a real good team have so little depth. Strategically I don't know what you can do.
credit deserve team
They are a never-quit team. I told my team when we were up 16 that they could come back. They deserve more credit than we do blame.
athletes best build shape team top
These are two of the top athletes in the country, and they are in the best shape of their lives. It's a lot to build a team around.
