We're just a different basketball team when Pops is in the lineup.
We were a 12th seed. A 12th seed. Why would I think we're going to be a 3 seed this year? Where's the proof? I'm going to sound like an idiot if I say that.
We played a very good non-conference schedule last year, we won the league and we won the tournament, and we were a 12th seed. It had no bearings, whatsoever. That's my opinion, anyway.
We have such depth that when the other team gets tired around the eight minute or seven minute mark, we make our move. We've done some tremendous things around that time this year.
We recruit and do things the right way.
We really missed him today, particularly just trying to establish an inside game to establish a tone. He's a hard guy to replace.
We couldn't solve that zone today. That was our problem. As a coach, I don't like to admit it, but I can't deny the truth.
We are hoping within two weeks. That is very optimistic on my part.
You didn't hear a complaint out of us. I don't care where we're seeded. I don't care if we're seeded 13th. We'll be happy to be in the tournament.
We didn't really have any bad weather at all, and you couldn't really tell what was going to happen.
We have a lot to do and little time to get it done.
We were speculating that lightning struck the building and now we are sure it was the culprit after talking to the residents.
We wanted to go into Pops and establish the inside position. We competed at all times, and at times our offense was magnificent.
Willie's like a big brother to me. I came to him and I said I really wanted to be his understudy, learn the ins and outs of not just the game, but life outside the game, handling yourself off the field, handling your finances and then just handling yourself as a person and he's doing a great job of teaching me.
