break chance forward gives looking spring teams year
It gives us a chance to play teams from around the country. I'm really looking forward to it. It's the first year we've done it, and usually during Spring Break we flatten off because we won't play.
defensive people presenting seems setting step strategies teams
Other teams are keying in on him, setting whole defensive strategies around him. That's presenting opportunities for other people to step up. It's amazing. It seems like every game, it's someone different.
came country teams tough
Two tough teams went at it and they just came out on top. They're not the No. 1 team in the country for nothing.
beat coming confident good ncaa teams three
We're real confident going into NCAA Tournament. We beat three real good teams coming into (Saturday).
anxious bad coaches early eight fact goes man played playing teams
The coaches just told me to be patient. I get real anxious when I see teams are playing me man-to-man. Early on, I had a lot of bad turnovers. I think that goes to the fact that we hadn't played in eight days.
control definitely easy games good left teams
We definitely feel like we control our own destiny, but at the same time, we don't feel there are any easy games that we have left. We still have a lot of good teams left to play, but we definitely feel like we're good enough to get through it.
against confidence east games great ncaa playing teams tournament
We got a lot of confidence from it and it's something we're going to use in the NCAA tournament. The Big East tournament is a lot like the NCAA tournament. You're playing games back-to-back. You're playing against great teams every night.
board happy people running
Without any pressing issues, there won't be a lot of change. Most people are pretty happy with who is running the board now.
add easily fuel game guys lost shows
We easily could have lost that game to Notre Dame. The way the young guys played, it just shows they're not going to give up. We don't want to lose. If we do, it'll add fuel to the fire.
church clothes ready sunday
We've got our church clothes ready for Sunday morning. You can write that down.
emotional highs next night
There are so many emotional highs and lows. You play really well one night, and the next night, you don't play well at all.
easy four offense taking three
My offense was bad, and I had to keep taking three or four opportunities to get an easy basket.
falling night played shots tough
That was a tough game. We played real hard. The shots just weren't falling tonight. It just wasn't our night.
defense great help key leave missed open shots watched
We watched a lot of film on him. He's a big key to their offense. When you're guarding him you can't leave him or he'll get an open shot. I also got great help defense from my teammates, and he missed some shots too. The combination is why he went scoreless.
