Rush is a pro. He's not only an NBA player, but a potential NBA all-star, in my opinion, with time and maturity. He's a great player. He's shown the capability to just totally dominate games at this level.
final finished game hopefully team win
I am not a politician. I haven't been. I won't be. You don't have to be when you play in the Big 12. You finished fourth, you win your first game in the tournament, you play a team that's hopefully going to the Final Four.

I've never been involved in a game where every person brought that amount of energy to the floor. I've never seen it where guys fought for so hard for 40 minutes on both sides. We just got lucky and made the last shot.

You can't really stop a guy like that. You just hope he doesn't totally destroy you.
either exactly joe knows reminded shot
Joe shouldn't have shot it. He knows that. It was my fault. I probably should have either called another timeout right there and told them exactly what we wanted to do or just reminded Joe that we didn't really need to have a 3-point shot at that point.
fight knew works
I knew we would fight every game. If you do that, it usually works out in the end.

They shoot threes better than we shoot foul shots.
coached good harder played smarter whipping
Got a good whipping tonight. They played harder than us. They played much, much, much smarter than us. ... They executed, played with discipline, they played hard, they got to the basket, they did what they were coached to do. They have good players, and I can see why they are getting better in a hurry.
