guy karl mean plays
He plays like Karl Malone tonight, I mean the guy was phenomenal, just an unbelievable game. He was the difference, there was no question.
figure team trying within
There's still things within our team that we're trying to figure out. We need to play better.
depended ron rushed settle shots
Ron has probably rushed his shots a little bit. I want him just to settle down and play. I think we've depended on him too much, too.
confidence ron
I would not do anything different at the end. I have all the confidence in the world in Ron Steele.
building everybody players sure throws understand
It throws you off a little bit, but the most important thing is to make sure the building is safe. The players understand that. Let's make sure everybody is safe.
coach difficult
As a coach, sometimes that's a difficult thing to do.
challenge compete offensive ready
They have so many different offensive weapons. We know it's going to be an unbelievable challenge to try and compete with them, so we're going to have to go out and get ready to play.
attention causes factor minute morris pay problems
Randolph Morris was a factor from the tip. You could tell from the first minute that he wanted to make a difference, and he did. He causes you problems while he's on the floor, and you have to pay attention to him.
beaten east nobody teams three top
The thing for us, we've beaten the top three teams in the East (Division) and we've beaten the top teams in the West. Nobody else in our league, I think, has done that.
advantages chance explain far men outweigh senior top tried
I've tried to explain to (Davidson) the advantages of him as a senior here, which I think would far outweigh any gamble. He's got a chance to be one of the top big men in the nation.
anybody confidence ron
I wouldn't do anything different at the end of the game. Absolutely. I've got as much confidence in Ron Steele as anybody in the nation.
felt frustrated might negative trying worried
I wasn't trying to get a foul. I don't know that I was worried that I did or not. I felt like if I got one, it might not always be a negative thing at that point. I was just a little frustrated at some calls.
close gesture great night number senior shows wear
It was a great gesture by Evan Brock. Unselfish. To wear Chuck's number on (Brock's) senior night just shows how close we all are as a team.
forward gives guard players position small team thin
This is devastating for our team as it gives us only 10 scholarship players and a thin backcourt. We'll have to play a small forward at the guard position this year. We'll have to adjust.
