battle lose
We put the big lineup in, so it's disappointing to lose the rebounding battle like that.
attacked bit couple holes late pickle stay teams wind zone
We had a couple of different things we did. I didn't think they attacked it well at times. Sometimes, you can stay in it too long and teams can find holes in your zone and I thought they did a couple of times late in the game. We wind up in a little bit of a pickle when we don't have depth.
chance good line ron shot three win
We're 1-of-10 from the 3-point line and we're right there and have a chance to win at the end of the game. We're down three and Ron had a pretty good shot at the end.
best jump lost overcame player shot sweet
We're 7-6, lost our best player and we're a jump shot away from being in the Sweet 16. They overcame a lot.
basketball prouder team
We're disappointed, but I couldn't be more prouder of a basketball team than I am right now.
encouraged played sitting tough
We're disappointed sitting here 6-5. We don't want to be 6-5. We've played a tough schedule, but we still don't want to be 6-5. But I like our team. I'm encouraged at how we played.
depth wore
To be honest, I think Kentucky's depth wore us down a little bit. I sensed we got a little tired. I think they were a little fresher than we were and that's just who we are right now. There's nothing we can do about that.
foot gas goals left pedal reach work
We're going to win, 100 percent. We've got a lot of work left to do to reach our goals. We're not going to take our foot off the gas pedal at all.
led state team
Those of us who know him know his background. He led his team to two state championships. He's an unbelievable winner, and we would not be here without Ronald Steele.
anyone change confidence jump shot
Today, we were a jump shot away from being in the 'Sweet 16. I wouldn't change a thing. I have as much confidence in Ronald Steele as anyone I ever have. We got what we wanted and it just didn't go down.
magic team
You'd like to put some magic potion on your team and have them play like that every game.
game good ncaa playing start thinking
We're not thinking about the NCAA tournament. We're thinking about playing a game at Ole Miss. Period. It doesn't do any good to start all that speculation. It's way too early.
huge understand
We understand this would be a huge, huge upset.
beaten bottom east line teams three top
We've beaten the top three teams in the (SEC) East and the top three teams in the West, and I don't know too many other teams that have done that. The bottom line is we need to keep winning.
