experience guys learning none setting step
None of those guys have been in a setting like the FedEx Forum. It will be a learning experience and they will step up.

That was game, set, match right there. That part of the game murdered us. The biggest thing is they got second opportunity after second opportunity, turnovers and points off turnovers.

It feel so good to get a win; we needed it. It's been a tough six games for us. We played hard and beat a very physical team. The most important thing is we won and it was not handed to us.

Craft is as good as he has been. Beasley is as good as he has been. The foundation is getting there.

This was a mismatch. We could play them 100 times, and we'd never beat them one time. We just wouldn't. That's just the way it is.

This year's schedule will be a competitive one for our team. Much like last season, we have several newcomers, who along with our returning players, need to have a little bit of success. I believe the schedule is right for where our program stands today.

We are very excited that Jarvis is coming to Southern Miss. Jarvis gives us something that we have lacked in that he is a player who can score from a lot of different places on the court.
backwards far five four game hard obviously playing program starting step taking took
We're obviously not there yet. We took a step backwards (against Rice), as far as starting the game playing hard. It all comes back to me. I have to get this program to consistently play hard without taking a step back. We had it going for four or five games, and then we took a step back.
mentally played plays stretch tough
We made the plays down the stretch. I thought it was the most mentally tough we played down the stretch all year.
