That was the most embarrassing effort I've ever been associated with as a college basketball player or coach. We had no answer for them in any shape or form.

I think we made a lot of progress. We have kids with a great deal of life. I wish we could have won the game today. It would have been a good way to move forward.

I think we can -- and have -- played better.

I think in a handful of instances it's just one play that's made the difference between 6-10 or 8-8 or 9-7 or whatever it might have been.

acute attention believe condition correct critical doctors hate health immediate informed juncture measures past season serious step suffering team
I have been suffering with this condition for much of the season and it has become more acute over the past 10 days. The doctors have informed me that without immediate attention that this condition will only become more serious and permanent. I hate to step away from the team at such a critical juncture of the season, but I believe that I have to take measures now to correct these health issues.
