against game negatives playing selection
That's one of the negatives of playing the game that butts up against the selection show.
blown deal feelings hard helped might proportion
That kind of got blown out of proportion how that went down. There's no hard feelings about that deal at all, but I think in a way it might have helped us.
basketball decided home kansas lasted personal player resolve tenure
It is unfortunate that Micah's tenure as a Kansas basketball player only lasted one semester. Micah has decided to go home to resolve some personal issues.
focused fun group guess hanging whatever
It's a fun and focused group when they get away from home, for whatever reason. They don't get excited. They don't get rattled. I guess they like hanging out all day together.
attention below george perfect setup stay
It's a perfect setup for them. With all the attention on George Mason, they can stay below the radar.
cost couple four good shooting teams three
Everybody's shooting two or three or four a game. I think with teams like that, it's why you don't shoot as good a percentage. But 8-for-17 is miserable. It's already cost us a couple of games.
game guys performers sure typical
The big guys were the better performers this game. It sure wasn't a typical game for the perimeter.
best conference finish hung instead selection strong win
The best way (for RPI) to get better is win games. Instead of getting hung up on RPI, we should get hung up on conference play. If we finish strong in the conference, it'll bode well for us come Selection Sunday.
feather great kansas matched sweeping teams winning
Sweeping Kansas would be a great feather in K-State's cap. And winning over there, with the teams more evenly matched than in many years, would be a feather in our cap.
care doctors early hopefully rest sit soon
It's in the early stages. The doctors feel like it's not full-blown, and hopefully rest will take care of it. We'll sit him this week, then re-evaluate it and hopefully get him back soon after that.
daily deal held issues tough troops
It's been tough for them. We think we have issues to deal with, but think of the issues that they have to deal with on a daily basis. Monte has held the troops together.
happy mad rather win
I told 'em I'd rather be mad at them and win than be happy and lose.
guys pull thinking time
They'll pull for the other guys to do well, but at the same time, they are thinking 'This is my time too.' So I think it is going to make for some pretty competitive practices.
figure game great hopefully seasons start win
It was huge, because we didn't play well at all. That's what makes great seasons ? when you figure out how to win a game when you don't play real well. Hopefully that's a start for us.
