good guys motivate people prove
I don't think it will take very much to motivate our guys and let them know that now we have to go prove to people how good we are.

We may try to win it without them.

There is no one guy where we say that if we lock him up we'll win the game.
happens hoping next night playing total
We're getting there. We still haven't had a night where everyone is playing their total A-game. But that's OK. I'm hoping that happens next weekend.
george kick rooting
We're rooting for George Mason. I'm really getting a kick out of it.
apparently below crew fine great hate punch ruin
Apparently a punch was thrown. Loren is hurting. It was below the belt. You don't get any better officiating crew than we had, and they said they didn't see anything, so it was fine with me. You hate to see something like that ruin a great game.
home kept night opportunity playing rest road saying senior thrilled
I kept saying that this has to be our Senior Night on the road because after this, we're playing home the rest of the way. I'm thrilled that they will have an opportunity to play again.

I'm happy that we're a multiple-bid league, but I don't know what more we could have done this year against Mason. I thought head-to-head would be more of an issue along with the fact that they will play without their starting point guard.

Smith has gotten so much better at handling double teams. He's just a great player. We got a little lucky.

That's as good a first half as I've ever seen anyone play since I've been at Hofstra. It's good to have them chase you, instead of the other way around.
ball gym hands knows
I just wanted to put the ball in Loren's hands and everyone in the gym knows that. It was Loren making a play.

I guess that's how teams that win 22 games do it. You just find a way to gut it out and win.
hard kids
I just know how hard our kids worked.
