deal jump soon
We want to deal with this as soon as we can but without undue haste. We can't jump to conclusions.
best duke early easy fight five job knew nice pressure seven team
We knew early on that Duke was going to try and pressure us, do what they do best and get in lanes. Our team was able to fight through that, and we scored some easy baskets on them. We did a nice job in the first five or seven minutes, and after that, they knew they would be in a contest.
field foul free next night percent
We're usually 69, 70 percent at the line. If you're not making field goals, the next thing you try to do is try and make it up at the foul line. We had 28 free throws, but we couldn't make those, either. It was that kind of night for us.
against ball half mean nine patient points team time worked
We scored nine points and had 10 turnovers in the first half against a zone! When I tell the team to be patient I don't mean make 40 passes, just four. Every time we worked the ball around, we got it inside.
basketball coach dave question whether
To question whether Dave Odom can coach a basketball game, that's ludicrous.
contest duke few five good guys handling heels job knew minutes nice seven tone work
We did a nice job of handling the first five to seven minutes of the game. We told our guys Duke was going to come out in those first few minutes and try to get us on our heels and that if we could work through that we'd be in good shape. That's what happened. A tone was set and I think they knew they were in for a contest all night.

We are going to do everything that we can that is best for Tack Minor. It is best for him to go ahead with the surgery and get this repaired at this time.

We had planned to red-shirt Magnum. But when Tyrus got hurt (late in the season) we needed him. He is right now where Tyrus was at this time last season.
billy committed good stay today
Billy (Donovan) was committed today to stay with Darrel. That's good coaching.
acting everybody harder kept left people pick work
Everybody kept acting like we were just going to pick up right where we left off. Well, it's harder than people think to make it work that way.
challenge checks defense free players position safety
As the quarterback on defense he's doing all of the checks and making all of the calls. That's a big challenge for a free safety to get 10 other players in the right position on every play.
definitely lead
At one point, we had a four-point lead and the ball, so we definitely had our chances.
five happened matter needed win
We all thought we were going to win the game. It didn't matter what happened to that point. All we needed was five minutes.
guys produced respond sit thoughts
We've produced some of our thoughts on where some of the payments sit and said 'you guys go away and respond to that'.
