Doesn't the record state it? Look at the results. To be quite honest, guys just didn't know Saint Louis. They're a very good basketball team.
It is profoundly disappointing to reach the stage of saying poor countries might be better off not signing this year.
I told them to settle down and they need to relax. I wanted to assure them that I was under control. They were playing the way I was acting. I am acting. That's exactly what I was doing.
They were a better team than us. It was clear to me and I was right there watching it. I thought they had better basketball players. Their experience really showed itself.
They've had classy kids and when you walk in their facility, you know basketball is important at that school. They've dominated us. They are the only program in this conference that has truly dominated us.
Once I caught the ball, all I was thinking was read the blocks, hold on to the ball and get up the field. The other 10 guys had the hard jobs. They had to block the Steelers. All I've got to do is run.
It's a big job here. The director at our library does everything because we don't have departments.
It was disheartening to play well enough to put us in the position to win, but we just couldn't make the free throws. I don't know if it was the fact that it was the NCAA tournament and we weren't used to the atmosphere, but I'm hoping that's where our experience will pay off if we're in that situation this year.
It's one thing to play physical, it's another to grab a guy's jersey.
It's more of a surprise. Disappointment? No. We won the league last year and we were a 12th seed, so we've improved.
It's hard to say you're not happy at 26-1. It's incredible when you put this in proper perspective what these guys have done.
I've got two or three more four-year-olds to run in the next couple of weeks who could yet become Triumph Hurdle contenders but this horse would definitely be the highest-rated on the Flat.
I want to be here and build a program and develop something. It's a change for (the players) to get to know me and a change for me to get to know them. I really enjoy teaching. Being able to do both is great.
They're one of the best teams in the country, and it shows in almost every statistical category. They've got a heck of a basketball team.
