extremely goes good half minutes played saying second
It goes without saying we're extremely happy. The first 12 minutes of the second half is about as good as we've played all year.
cut dickens forty hard imagine meeting minutes practice seven sneeze time worked
I can't imagine what in the dickens went on in a meeting where you'd cut practice times to 40 minutes. Now they're making you practice twice. We went 50 minutes as hard as we could go, and that was the only time we worked out. Now, we've got to go somewhere. Forty minutes? I can sneeze seven times in 40 minutes.
defensive hard limiting minutes points seventeen twelve work
I thought defensively we've competed awfully, awfully hard. (The) first seventeen minutes of the first half, I think we had them at like twelve points and I think it was just hard work on the defensive end, I think we were limiting them to one shot.

I thought Virginia was much more aggressive and much more intelligent early in the game. Very uncomfortable over there for me.

I think we are very fortunate to continue playing.

Jesse's over there hiding from me, ... He knows I'm going to say something.
felt game impressive last night seen shooting team
Last night was about as impressive an opening-round game that I have ever seen a team play. I mean, I felt like they were shooting about 85 percent. They were guarding. They were doing everything.

coach concentration effort gone gotten season team wants
I think this team has done something that every coach wants to do, and that is gotten better as the season has gone along. They've put the effort and the concentration in to make that happen.
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.
coaches country good hopeful lost regardless step thinking
Just thinking about those things is mind-boggling to me, so I'm hopeful that we as coaches and we as a country will step up and do so many good things for those people. But regardless of what you do, it's never going to be enough. They've lost things that can't be replaced.
best college deep difficult felt great interest mike roots sure
Mike has accomplished so much at Duke, and his roots are so deep that I thought it would be difficult for him to leave. I'm sure he felt it was in the best interest for him and his family. I know it is great for college basketball.
