almost cost gets guys harder head jay last minutes played problem putting smith teams
I think we've had a problem putting teams away all year. They (CMU) played harder than us that last 15 minutes (of regulation) and it almost cost us. (CMU head coach) Jay Smith gets his guys to play hard for him.
build came good home trying
I think this is good for our program. We're trying to build a Nevada, Gonzaga, Xavier, Dayton (program). That's why I came home here.
goes great heart hope
Our heart goes out to (Collins). He?s a great player. We just hope he?s healthy.
key needed team
We needed to clinch Cleveland. That's a key for this team because we are not that deep.
everybody played
We played well only in stretches. Everybody was tired.
four good played schedule tribute
We've still survived, which is a tribute to our guys. We've played a good schedule with four high-major teams.
coach great group script since
For us to come in after 17 years of never being in the postseason since Coach Huggins was here, you couldn't write a better script then to play Temple. For a fledgling group like us, to come in and be able to play them is just a great honor.
glad monkey needed next program wins
I am glad to get the monkey off my back. The program needed the 20 wins more than anything to take that next jump. It's big for us.
bring four games locker minutes move room talked ten tough twelve until
Twelve minutes. We got into the locker room at 7:58, and we talked about until ten minutes after 8. That was it. I don't want to bring it up again. We have to move on because we have four tough games left.
finish
We had them on the ropes and didn't finish them off.
dribble gotta guard
We gotta be able to guard their dribble penetration.
controlled game hammered missed open run slip
We controlled the game for most of it but let it slip away. We missed open looks. We could have hammered them. They got that little run and we never recovered.
good hurt job none sure
We have to do a good job on their big three, and make sure none of their (other players) hurt us.
figure guy hard knowledge skill staff strong tribute weight
Mentally, you figure out that if you're not strong enough, you need to get in the weight room. The hard part is all that skill and knowledge and ability, and he's got that. It's a tribute to their staff to find a guy like that who slipped through the cracks.
