ball david excited fine fortunate gives good join late man pressure putting represents run student team terrific
We are excited to have David join our program, ... He is a fine young man who represents all that we look for in a student-athlete at FAU. He's a good person and a good student from a good family. As a player, he gives us another ball handler who can run the team while putting terrific pressure on opposing guards. We were fortunate to find him at such a late date.

effort
I thought the effort was there, but we just weren't making our shots.
accomplish burns challenge emotions exciting fire group high highs impact low men moves remember spend time titans together tv watching year
I think so. This year I want to spend time with my family, do some TV and see where the fire burns after the season. I was watching Remember the Titans the other day, and it made me think about the emotions you go through. There's nothing that moves you emotionally like coaching. You have high highs and low lows, and to be able to have an impact on young people, to get a group of young men together and accomplish a goal, that is a real exciting challenge for me. You don't get that in any other profession.
against anyone chance conference everybody good hottest last operating team win
We have to play the hottest team in the conference and we didn't play particularly well against them last time. Stetson has as good of a chance as anyone to win this thing. We need everybody operating on all cylinders.
experience
We are the hunted, and that is a new experience for our guys.
ethic good hardest players rodney tough work
Rodney is a tough kid. He really has a good work ethic and is one of the hardest working players I've been around.

It didn't really occur to me until yesterday. I was hanging some pictures in my office and there was one of Michael Jordan taking that shot, and I told one of my players how there were 63,000 people at the Superdome that day and that's when it hit me.

best hurts
I think it hurts because Brent is our best defender.
ball care easy free good gordon picking points safety
Stetson scored 23 points off turnovers. We have to take care of the ball and take good shots. We have to make the easy play because Gordon sits back there like a free safety picking off passes.
execute half maybe tried
I was very disappointed in the first half with the way we played. We were not sharp. Maybe I tried to get them too jacked up. Maybe we were too aggressive. We didn't execute well.
attend concern paul philly rally
It doesn't rally concern us, because he didn't attend Philly Lutheran. Paul had already graduated.
ball break bring good helping men shoot stop team
We had our (big) men helping bring the ball up. So, if we were able to break the press, we had good scorers who were able to stop and shoot on the other end. This team is getting smarter, and we know who should take (the shots).
