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.
This is a big game for us for a lot of reasons. We've won a few games. It's not a fix, but it's a start. Now we've got to be ready to compete at a very high level.
We showed toughness down the stretch. We had to pick up our defense. I think that was one of the very few games where our experience really paid off for us.
We've been playing a lot of so-called small ball here lately. It's going to be very difficult to pull that off against Arkansas.
Willie's like a big brother to me. I came to him and I said I really wanted to be his understudy, learn the ins and outs of not just the game, but life outside the game, handling yourself off the field, handling your finances and then just handling yourself as a person and he's doing a great job of teaching me.
We wanted to go into Pops and establish the inside position. We competed at all times, and at times our offense was magnificent.
We have a lot to do and little time to get it done.
What I've been told is that we have a pretty good team. We should be fairly competitive. And if not, we will be in a few years once I build a program.
We had the ball inside and they took it from us. Pops had a couple of shots inside -- dunks he usually makes and he missed them. That really affected our shooting percentage. A large part of that had to do with their defense.
When a man forgets his ideals, he may hope for happiness, but not till then
We recruit and do things the right way.
We were very, very fortunate to win the game. We made some tough 3s down the stretch, and we were able to get one or two key turnovers, and I thought that was the only difference in the game.
We were scheduled to leave on Sunday morning, and they gave us all of these warnings. They said there was a good chance that our flight would be canceled.
We were speculating that lightning struck the building and now we are sure it was the culprit after talking to the residents.
