jackie saw speech
It went excellent. I'm not lying. I said I didn't want to come here because of that speech. I saw Jackie (Stiles) do it and it made me nervous.
frustrated hopefully last threw time
I just let myself get frustrated and that's the first time I've done that this year. Hopefully it's the last because it really threw me out of my game.
kindness lower seed stays
I kind of like being the underdog. The lower seed stays relaxed.
awards nice
It will be something nice to look back on later, but I don't really think about awards too much right now.
arms biggest bounce chest difference pass throw time
The biggest difference with (Traore) was that she had height. Her arms are really long and every time I got a pass it had to be a bounce pass because her arms were too long to throw a chest pass.
carry confidence good playing road teams wins
It was two good wins here, but a lot of other teams are playing confident. We just have to carry our confidence on to the road and keep it up.
looking
That's how we're looking at it. We're going to go there and give everything that we can give. We know what we have to do.
definitely fear maybe shock
This is definitely going to shock some people. Maybe it will put a little fear in them.
great losing ncaa nobody playing tournament
Losing is not fun, but we still got here. Nobody thought we'd get here and we did. Playing in the NCAA Tournament is a great way to end.
almost coaching missouri playing staff state wear week
It's another week for me to wear this Missouri State uniform. I like playing for this coaching staff and for this team. It's almost over for me, but I don't want it to end.
hung met people players
It was a lot of fun. I met a lot of people and hung out with some players I hadn't met before.
dead family focus hate high joke mind tired wished
In high school, I used to joke with my family that I wished there wasn't a bench. Even when I'm dead tired I hate to come out of the game. You just focus your mind not to think about getting tired.
focused pressure relaxed staying
We can't get so tensed up and spastic like we have before. Staying focused and relaxed and not getting so tensed up will be the key. We have no pressure on us.
attitude players
We have young players who have never been so it's going to be a little nerve-racking for them. We're not at home, either. We just have to take the 'no pressure' attitude with us that we had this weekend.
