beat biggest fallen harder seem since time win
I do think it was the biggest win of the year. At the time we beat Xavier, I thought that was the biggest win, but since they have kind of fallen on harder times, it doesn't seem as big.
attempted bad basketball coming hard interested keeps quality seemed shot sustaining time tonight topic tried
I know that topic keeps coming up, but I'm most interested in quality basketball. We're having a hard time sustaining quality basketball, and tonight was as bad as it gets. Everything we tried didn't work. Every shot we attempted seemed a little off rhythm.
kids recruiting spend time understand
Shooters are shooters. We've got to keep recruiting shooters and we've got to keep getting our kids to understand how much time they have to spend on their shot.
ball early game happened hard keys poor shoot shooting time turning
That's not the way we scripted the game to start. It just snowballed from there. One of the keys was for us to shoot the ball well early so we didn't have that self-perpetuating problem. This has happened to us before where we get off to a poor shooting start, and we really have a hard time turning the tide.
kid time
First time I'd ever subbed a kid in and out before he played.

Not at all. He's a Big Ten veteran.

They just have to log minutes. As good a player as Tommie is, as good a player as Kevin is, they just need more minutes. They need to keep playing and they need to keep being challenged with great competition and they'll get their mouthful on Friday.
drafted gets hurt matter period replace short
If Ian gets drafted, that's going to hurt us, there's no way around it. What can I say? I don't think even if we find out he gets drafted in June, we can find someone to replace him in that short period of time, no matter where in the world we look.
adult playing shots
He was like an adult playing with kids. He was getting shots for different kids.
address close emotional forward kid looking night personally properly senior team wednesday
I have not been looking forward to Wednesday because I have to find a way to properly address the team and Anthony. Senior Night is always emotional, but I think this will be particularly emotional because I've been as close to this kid personally as any kid I've coached.
fire full games messing somehow stopped
That's two full games where we haven't stopped anybody. Somehow we outscored Charlotte. We didn't outscore Dayton. We're messing with fire if we think that's how we can play. We have to stop people.
ability both confident everybody impact kids knew
I don't think everybody thought they would have the impact they did. I knew both kids were confident in their ability and I knew they were talented.
