gains gets good gotten great maturity player
As he's gotten healthy, he's gotten better and better. He's got a great feel for the game. He can do a lot more things than he's doing right now. As he gets older, gains maturity in this program, he's going to be a really good player in this league.

They are a good defensive team. We were trying to score as much as we could, but they just wouldn't let us.
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.

The first thing I want to do is congratulate Jim Wooldridge and his players. They won at Kansas, they were good enough to beat Texas and they were good enough to beat Oklahoma.
absolutely community good pay solid takes
It takes time. It's like stock. You go up and down with it, but if it's solid and it's a good stock, it will pay off. This is a good investment. For this community and this county, I think it is absolutely the right thing to do.
breaking game good kept telling
That was an important game for a lot of reasons. I kept telling (Everett) that he was one good game away from breaking out.

I don't think our league is different than anybody else's. A month ago Kansas was struggling. I think they are pretty good right now. A month ago we were struggling. We're pretty good right now.
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.
active difference gibson good impressed team texas
I think Texas is good, but I don't think there's a lot of difference between the two teams. I thought Gibson was a lot more active today. Texas was good today, but I was more disappointed in our team than I was impressed with Texas.
applied coaches good head jimmy knew people recruit watching workers
I really didn't know Jimmy when he applied for the job. I knew he was a worker, a good recruiter and a good people person just from watching him recruit over the summer. The head coaches know who all the workers are.

I just think he's a good player that fills a need for us. Every time he and I have talked, I left with a good feeling.
gives good known team texas toughness
He gives Texas an identity. An important part of being a good team is you're going to be known for something. P.J. gives them a toughness and orneriness because that's the way he plays.
