coming game senior tired whatever
I don't ever really feel like I get tired when I'm on the court. I just want to play and do whatever I can. As a senior you look at every game and you could see kind of an end coming and you want to be in there as much as you can and make the most of it.
exactly goal mind somebody straight thinking thinks trying wants whatever
He's somebody who's going to tell you exactly what he thinks and when he thinks it with the goal in mind that he's trying to make you better. It's pretty much all straight forward, whatever he's thinking and whatever is on his mind. I think sometimes that there's probably things that he wants to say to us that he can't, too.
build felt game step took whatever
Overall, it felt like we didn't come and play. We wanted to build off the LSU game and it felt like we took a step back. We were scatterbrained for whatever reason. We'll get it back. We all know what we have to do.
definitely games good maturity push sign tough whatever
Sometimes you're just going to have games like that for whatever reason. And just for us to be able to kind of push through it and tough it out, it's definitely a good sign. It's a sign of maturity for our team.
explain felt game nobody playing poorly
It was a little frustrating because it was unexpected. Nobody really felt that we were going to go into this game playing as poorly as we did. There's no way to explain it. It's just an off night.
coach knows prepare team time
I think that's the way that coach has always, kind of something he's always been know for. He knows how to prepare a team for this time of year.
seem sick
You think you'd get sick of each other eventually. But it doesn't ever seem to get like that.
couple crunch last past playing realizing regular senior step time
I think we?re all realizing that it?s the culmination of our last regular season. This is the time where every senior in the past had to step up and make things happen; (Will?s) been playing like crunch time for the past couple games.
forget grown mistakes
It's really frustrating, even more so as a friend, because you want to see her have success. But to her credit, everything she's done, she's done on her own. She's really grown and been able to forget about mistakes and play without those inhibitions.
atmosphere college fans support
Connecticut fans are the best, especially here in Bridgeport. When we were here two years ago, we had unbelievable fan support and it's just the most unbelievable atmosphere to play as a college athlete. The fans are great.
half matter parts regardless rhythm season second sort worry
This is one of the most important parts of the season no matter who we play because right now we just have to worry about us and what we need to do and try to get some sort of rhythm going in the second half of the season. Regardless of who we play right now, it's just a really important part of the season.
calm definitely gets step sure tournament
I think going into the tournament if it gets to that situation, that?s something that I would definitely look to try to do. Make sure everyone is calm and try to step up and get us out of that little drought.
goals stay
If I were in Duke's position, I wouldn't think anything of it. The goals are still the same. You have to stay focused. And I think they'll be just as focused.
within
It?s just an unbelievable experience. To come into it and have no idea where you?re going to go and find out within minutes, I think it?s really exciting. I can?t wait.
