We've shortened our practices. We don't really do anything to prevent injury, except doing minimal contact drills, but other than that we're just trying to be smart about how we go about practice.
country front line teams
LSU is one of the better teams in the country. Their front line is tremendous.

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.

In the time outs, there was a ton of determination in those guys. That comes from being burned once or twice.

Ron Steele was real aggressive. He penetrated a lot in the first half. That was big for us.
chuck gives lead positive roll start team though today winning
Chuck will still lead this team even though he'll be on the sidelines. Winning always gives you a lot of confidence. We are going to start today and we are not going to roll over. We are not going to make excuses, pout and whine. We are going to buckle down, be positive with one another and play.

I think it gave him some confidence and he got to see where he stacked up. He had a great year this year, and he's improved every year he's been here.

Alabama needs to be a team that continues to play well. I've sat on every different side of this thing, guys. Until Sunday night when they call your name, nothing's for sure.

I thought Alonzo gave us great energy, great lift off the bench. He did a lot of things well tonight. Sometimes on those 'Senior Nights,' somebody else always emerges. Tonight, it was Alonzo.

I'm not going to talk about it (to the team), and I'm not sure our players will, either.
hendrix key today
Hendrix today was a big key on the backboard.

I think it's a good decision. I think he's got a chance to be one of the premier forwards in the nation next season. He became a leader on our basketball team this past season, and I think he'll continue to mature as a player. And I'm also excited because he's on track to graduate next spring.
