high move offensive people player scoring sets
He's an offensive player in the sense he sets other people up in the offense. He's not a scoring offensive player with high numbers. ... If you move without the ball, he'll find you.
amazing difference home showing toughest
It's amazing what a difference being at home makes in this league. We have the toughest travel, but its showing in other teams, too.
carry half last pleased second
I was pleased with the last half of the second half. The first half was a carry over from Nevada.
beat blown figured flat good hands nevada
I figured they would come out flat after getting blown out, but they come back and beat a very good Nevada team. Now we know we're going to have our hands full.
beginning four looking losses realistic three win year
I said at the beginning of the year that you could have three or four losses and still win the league. That's looking more realistic now.
bring guy hard help works
If every guy who comes back works hard and improves, and if we bring in recruits who can help us right away like we did this year, we'll be fine.
control decision future good guys job kids leave people playing reason recruiting school
In the future it's going to be very difficult. They're going to have to do a good job of recruiting guys who have the potential. The thing that kills people that's not fair, the No. 1 reason kids leave school is playing time. You can't control that. You get penalized for his decision and not yours.
loss second tied
It was very important. We're tied for second on the loss side.
bring depends guys special team willing
It depends on who else we bring (from recruiting). But what made this year's team so special is that we had guys willing to play different positions.
far second ugly
If you have to have one or the other you'd take the second half, as long as you don't get too far behind. It was a little scary, because it was pretty ugly when they were up 14.
problem team year
I'd give it to him because his team is in first place. But I'd have no problem with Millsap getting it either. If there was a year where you could have co-MVPs, this is it.
hit shots
Julian hit the shots and was really slashing without the ball, and was getting some inside-outside stuff.
jockey position race ready
Even if you're not in the race, you still have to jockey for position in the (WAC) tournament. So they still have a lot to play for. They'll be ready for us.
conference everybody nobody tough travel
The travel is what makes this conference so hard. Everybody is tough at home, and nobody has to travel like how we do it.
