came center couple joey looking minutes ready released start
Joey is looking good. After being released (Thursday) morning, he came by the Finch Center for a couple of minutes and said he was ready to start working out again.
came easily final game hat leaving lucky night noise played plays ricky teams trouble won
They (East Carolina) came out and played like it was the Final Four. They could have easily won this game and we are lucky to be leaving here with a win. If ECU plays like that every night out, they will give a lot of teams trouble and make some noise in the conference. I take my hat off to Ricky and the team. We played as well as we could play.
came catch everybody field goal held opponents percent percentage shooting skilled thinks
We held opponents to 37.8 percent in field goal percentage on the year. But for some reason, everybody thinks we're a pressing, 3-point shooting team. I don't know where that came from. We're a balanced, skilled team. We can pass, catch and shoot.
against beat came everybody game good plan somebody team turned win
It's a good win against a team that was 9-1. If we don't beat somebody by 40, everybody is saying, 'What's going on with the Tigers?' They have scholarships too. They came out and had a game plan on how they were going to play, but they turned it over 19 times.
defended free kick please
I think we defended pretty well. We just couldn't make a basket. Please make a basket, make a free throw, anything. Kick one in.
defense dreaded played work zone
I thought our defense was good, and then I played the dreaded zone for a while which I think everybody's like 'Wow'. But we have a zone and we work on it. I just don't use it that much.
ball deny game great guys pressure ready start wings
I think what we are going to do is go great ball pressure and deny wings to start the game because I want to know who is not ready to play. We had guys start this game like we don't have to play. Like they were going through the motions.
actions allow chance continue gone jeremy ongoing university
I think the university and I have gone out of our way to give Jeremy every chance to be a part of this program, but we can not allow his actions to continue to be an ongoing distraction for this team.
bottom care conference dragging great schedule teams win
I said I don't care what conference they're from, they must be teams that are going to win 17 or more games. The bottom of our schedule was dragging us down. You can schedule teams with great names, but if they go 7-21, it kills you.
guys hurt people
People are saying, 'Well, do you think it'll hurt you that they're young? You know, the thing about young guys is they don't think they're going to lose. They haven't been through it yet. So we will see.
guys opinions radio tv
Those guys on TV and radio have to come up with some opinions and some upsets.
deep game
We're deep and we're also fast. I want the game that way.
march strive strong
We have strong legs. That's what we strive to have in March and that's what we have.
bad coached free kick played please
Please make a basket. Make a free throw. Kick it in. We played bad and I coached bad. ... we did it together.
