area chance comforting felt second shoot third
We felt like if there was an area we could dominate, it would be the boards. It's comforting to know we don't have to shoot well and we have a chance to make second and third shots.
area athletic chicago good guys reason wants
Brandon can be as good as he wants to be. Had he been a little better in Chicago (NBA pre-draft camp), he wouldn't be here. He's a pro. There's a reason he was in Chicago. Guys that athletic and guys that long usually aren't three-point shooters. But there's no area he's not good at.
area chicago game good nba wants
He can be as good as he wants to be. If he'd been a little better in Chicago (at the NBA pre-draft camp), he wouldn't even be in college. He's a pro. There's no area of the game that he isn't good at.
area game good guys last lift reason talent team unique wants whatever year
He can be as good as he wants to be. Had he been a little better last year in Chicago, he wouldn't even be in college. There's a reason why he was in Chicago. He's a pro. Whatever team he's on, he automatically is going to lift that team to a different level. He's a unique talent with his length. Guys that athletic, guys that long usually aren't that good of 3-point shooters. But there's no area of the game that he's not good at.
build chance lead
I think we had a chance to build a lead or take the lead because we were getting stops. We just didn't get it done.
hard stays team top
I think we're a top 10-type team. If this team stays healthy, we'll be hard to beat.

Jimmy is great. To me, he's great with the kids and he's excellent for your program.
coach everybody family oklahoma respect state thoughts
I think everybody has so much respect for coach Sutton. When something like that happens, we all feel our own mortality. He and the Oklahoma State family are in our thoughts and prayers.
kid lucky remember thinking
I remember thinking he's lucky to be alive. That was my first reaction. But the more I heard, the more I wanted this kid on my team.
crowd handle hard last played time
We couldn't have played any better for 34 minutes. We had the crowd out of the game. It's disappointing. This one is hard to handle because I thought we outplayed them for a long time and they outplayed us the last 6 minutes.
avoided game good great played week win
We played tough, we played with great determination. This was a very important game for us. Not just because we avoided going 0-3 (in the Big 12), but it is good to win and then have a week off to practice.
answer best guards iowa single state team
We had no answer for Blalock and Stinson. Iowa State has the two best guards on a single team in the Big 12.
forward fun looking team
I think this is going to be a fun team to watch. I'm really looking forward to getting started.

Kevin is the epitome of a student-athlete. He has all the values we really emphasize here.
