amazing good guards guys heck leading though
I've never had that even though I've had two guards who've been the two leading scorers. I've always had other guys who can score. It's amazing what they've accomplished. They've had a heck of a good year.
brings fun guy leadership looks next third veteran
Kevin's our third guy right now, and he brings veteran leadership to this group. But we do make fun of him because he's so small. He looks like he's 5-7 out there next to us. But he does make plays.
defend easier four guy guys head run screaming standing time
I'm over there screaming my head off one time ... 'Move, move, move. It's easier to defend a guy when the other four guys are standing there stationary ... they can run in there and make it difficult.
guys none stop teams walk
If I ever have one of my teams quit, I will walk out of here and stop coaching. None of our guys are ever going to quit.
felt guy luckiest
I felt like the luckiest guy in the world.
bad best call chance foul given guy hurts job score team tied wrong
I called for a press, but we did a bad job with it and it was the wrong call on my part. We go down and foul a guy and we are never able to get the score tied after that. It hurts when you feel like you've not given your team the best chance to win.
extra guys hold player running shut
I was disappointed in Aaron's involvement. I didn't see it. I'll need to look at the tape. If we need to do some extra running for Aaron, it's what we should do. Our guys don't need to do those kind of things. Just shut up, get hold of your own player and get out of there.
builds great stepping
a big stepping stone... builds our confidence. It was a great win, and something we can build on.
freshmen gained health michael nearly rest tyler
It was really frustrating because I think the freshmen particularly could have gained so, so much. For example, I think Tyler and Michael did. But the rest of them didn't gain nearly as much as they could have because of the health situation.
survive trying
Survive and advance. That's what we're trying to do.
broadcast grew market total
As of the end of 2005, in total broadcast revenues, the market only grew 3.8 percent.
attitude battles extremely freshman freshmen great hard works
(Hansbrough) is very focused. He works extremely hard. He battles as hard as any freshman I have ever been around. Ever. ... You usually don't find freshmen with that kind of attitude and work ethic. That's a great quality.
dreaming help hoped hoping stop
I hoped that we would really play well, I hoped we would really play hard, and I hoped that would help us be very successful. But there's still a lot out there. We're hoping and dreaming that we won't stop right now.
blaze faster moss proper saw taken
I saw Moss blaze down the seam, ... I wasn't able to take the right position. I should have read it faster and taken the proper angle. I take all the blame.
