compared couple dribble football good hand heard past people playing ready team
It's a hand-off play. We dribble it over and hand it off. ... People say we're a football team playing basketball. We've heard it for the past couple of years now. They all say, 'Now we have to get ready to play the Steelers.' We think it's good to be compared to a team that's had so much success.
below dangerous good guards job keeping shut
You're not going to shut him down. He's going to get shots. He's going to take shots. He's got range. We've done a good job on a lot of guards this year, keeping them below their averages. You can't let him get going. He's been very dangerous this year.
few good setting
He got a few better looks, some in transition, and they were also setting some screens. He's a good player. I didn't think he'd go scoreless tonight.
assistant coach coaches coaching good guys head jobs looking preparing
I want guys who want to be head coaches. To be a good head coach you have to be a good assistant first. I want our guys looking at head coaching jobs and preparing to be head coaches because that makes them good assistant coaches.
couple eight four good great loss minutes played
He played so good the other day (during Friday's 65-61 loss to Seton Hall). He had 11 assists. He started out great with the passing. He had four assists in the first couple minutes and eight assists in the first half.
adversity foul good played shots throughout
I thought we battled, we played hard, we got through some adversity with the foul trouble. We made some shots at the end but we didn't make them consistently throughout the game. They're a good team, but we need to play better.
assume gained good respect since
I assume they respect us and I know we respect them. Ever since I've been here it's been a good program. We haven't gained any more respect for them because of rankings. We have a lot of respect for their program.
amazing change decisions game good lose offense outcome percent shoot shot tough
Not often do you lose a game when you shot over 70 percent in a half. It is tough to lose a game when you shoot that. I thought our offense was good and we made good decisions and (had) good looks. Its amazing how one little thing can change the outcome of the game.
embrace football good playing proud talk team teams
It's something that's been said about us. I sometimes used to get away from it but now we embrace it. Teams often talk about us playing like the Steelers, or as a football team at different times. Now we look at it as a good thing and we're proud of it.
brings close game good talk teams
It was such a good, close game with two good teams going at it, so we always talk about that game. I think that it brings back some memories.
battle free good playing second teams throws win
It was two good teams playing well. They made free throws (11 for 14 in the second half), and we need to win the rebounding battle more than we did.

I'm especially proud of the way we battled back and put ourselves in good position. This was a good week for us. We got better and we'll build on this.

She ... went to the house of a friend for afternoon tea where she said she wasn't feeling good and she collapsed.
beat full glad good ready rest rotation schedule tough
They've had a tough schedule recently, but they beat a very good team. They're very good, and they'll be ready to go. I was glad I was able to get in a full rotation (against Providence) and rest some of our guys, so that everyone is fresh. It's going to be a very tough game.
