bother degree fourth good kids semester three thrown
Out of 63 kids who had a fourth degree felony, three were thrown out of school, so the percentages were all in his favor. And he was thrown out for a semester for basketball. With that said, I didn't think he had a good game. I do think that things bother him.
below blocking thrown yellow
I thought it was actually blocking below the knees. I would have probably thrown the yellow (flag) for that.

Three out of 63 kids who committed the same act were thrown out of school. The percentage, quite frankly, was in his favor not to have it happen.

He's one of the most memorable players we've ever had if you think about just how spectacular he's been and the darts he's thrown at teams.
couple expected great passes threw thrown
He threw a couple passes that went off people's hands, but he also threw some passes that we haven't had thrown all year. That's to be expected because he's a great passer.

He threw a couple of passes off guys' hands. But he also threw passes that no one has thrown all year. We expect that from him because he's such a great passer.

I know Denham was very tough on them going into the locker room. I could hear it. There were a lot of words being thrown around.

I thought they tested us. I was a little bit disappointed that we didn't respond quite as well.

I thought the shot was going to go in. He had a great angle, great shot at the end to go in and I truly believed it was going to go in. But it didn't. We got the shot we wanted.

I think we finally wore them down. They didn't have any more players to play.

I thought our big kids dominated the game. The difference in the game was our power.
beat beaten both cares minutes playing point record saw seed syracuse team today whether
I think we showed up like a team that had glanced at our record and saw we had beaten Syracuse handily both times. My point is that in a tournament, no one really cares what seed you are or whether you beat someone before. It's the 40 minutes you're playing today that's important.
ball credit gets leader louisville offense people runner sure time worked
I think a lot of credit has to go to Louisville when you have a leader out. I'm not sure how well our offense would have been if we didn't have Marcus Williams. Marcus is not the scorer, but he is the runner of the team. He gets the ball to the right people in the right time at the right spots. They didn't have that tonight. They worked like crazy.
attached believe charm charming everybody exactly natural phoenix played tournament truly
I think it's the very charm of exactly what this tournament is about and I truly believe that. We played Gonzaga in 1999 and everybody in Phoenix was attached to them. That's a very natural thing.
