(Of course) I don't want them to be excited to lose. But I don't want my kids sitting around sulking and pouting because it's wasted negative energy. |
I don't think we took our scouting reports to heart. |
I felt like we outplayed them the first 15 minutes of the game. |
I think fans will see a little different style of play, because we'll be deeper. We'll be able to pick up people a little more in the full-court. Last year, we had a lot of games where we played very well the first half, and the second half we just ran out of gas. |
I was watching off the ball so I didn't see the five-second call. |
I'm excited at the opportunity that President Maxwell and the administration have given me. Their support is reflected in the extension. |
I'm so proud of our kids' effort to come into this environment with a game of this magnitude, delaying Indiana State from cutting down their nets. |
Indiana State is the clear favorite. They have five seniors back, four of which are starting. They're definitely loaded. |
It was a good bus ride home. But that game can't be the end of our season. We can't get too high. |
It was a great defensive effort from top to bottom. |
It wasn't pretty, but we'll take it. We got a little taste of what we'll have to do in the tournament. |
It's especially rewarding coming from a player you didn't recruit. It's an indirect compliment to our staff. Linda has a natural feel for the game. She has a great demeanor with kids. She's going to be a great coach. |
Jill looks great. I think she's going to be in position to have a great junior year. Your biggest jump in college usually comes from your freshman to your sophomore year, and she was hurt last year. I think her big jump will come in her junior year. |
Nine point nine times out of 10 we win that game. I'll go to battle with Linda any day of the week. |
Our freshmen really played like freshmen today. |
