biggest boost drive gives literally man played seen teams turn
He's the biggest man I've ever seen in my life. He comes in and gives us a big boost off the bench. We've played teams where they'd literally drive in and turn around.
example hung opportunity perfect worked
He's a perfect example of perseverance. He just hung in there and got his opportunity and it worked out for him.
kept reminding shots start
I kept reminding him (Kenny) that if he didn't start making shots we wouldn't let him play.
coach defense sure
I'm sure their defense had a lot to do with our shooting, but when you are a coach you don't see it that way. You look at what you didn't do.
closing lined margin matter seed stars
It's a matter of the stars having to be lined up right and things going well for the 16 seed and not so well for the one seed. But that margin is closing a little bit.
loose tougher
They were tougher than we were. They got loose balls, they got re-bounds.
help might road younger
It (the exposure) might help down the road with younger kids.
everybody great
It's great for our school, our players, and for everybody involved.
athletic basketball definitely seeing sound team
We're used to seeing that. We're definitely not the most athletic team around. We're a good, sound fundamental basketball team.
good nice touch
I think he's better than 38 percent. He's got a nice touch and a good feel from the line.
game head knew practiced prepared tape watched
We actually prepared for them today. We knew this was a possibility and we knew they were in the game. We watched tape of the game two years ago, and we practiced and prepared as if we were in this game. So we already got a head start.
game guard point totally
I feel like we have been pretty consistent. We are getting better each game and once we are done with all the suspensions and our point guard is totally healthy, we will be even better.
coach future hurt immediate impact might morris needed players robert smaller sure team
Robert Morris is a smaller team and we could have used John, but I needed to make sure all my players know that is not how we do things here. The immediate impact might hurt us, but as a coach you have to think about the future and that is what I am doing. It will hurt, though.
advantage court definitely game help home played players playing size
They have been playing well at home this year, and I think home court advantage will help them, but we have to think of the game as being played on the same size court as any other court. But I know that players definitely are more comfortable on their own court.
