They were just quicker at every position. And that gave us trouble. They were the better team. They showed why they are the defending national champions. |
They'll go right in there and run something completely different. But they're going to get over that. Now we have a whole bunch of games to work on that. |
They're overachievers. They didn't come in with a whole lot of athletic ability, but they worked hard on the court, in the classroom and in the community. I knew they would be good for our program, but their work ethic and success really did surprise me. |
They're the defending national champions, so I'm guessing they are probably a pretty confident group. I know that they play with a lot of intensity. |
They're tough to defend. They run their offense as well as anyone in the conference. That was some pretty darn good defense - sometimes they didn't even get a shot. |
They've got some talent, a great coach and they're hungry for a win. They've got nothing to lose. |
This was a great stage for Dionne to show what she is capable of doing. |
This was a tough game for us. I saw so many things I didn't like. They weren't carrying out some things and then the mental part of it I was really disturbed with. I thought we would be mentally prepared. |
UNLV plays four guards. So using four guards was something we were looking at doing anyway. |
We had an opportunity. We fought for that. We just didn't take full advantage of it. |
We had one of the top recruits in the United States and nobody even knew she was here. |
We have had some inconsistency. But I do feel this is an excellent team. When they're good, they're very, very good. Last night I thought they were very, very good, and I think they can replicate that. |
We have to be a tougher road team to win this conference. I'm really happy we hung in and beat Air Force. That was a great game, and our experience really carried us to a win, but we have to find a way not to dig a hole for ourselves. |
We have to be able to play the full game. We have to get over being a one-half team. I was really disappointed with our effort at halftime. |
We have to let this loss go and focus on playing our best basketball to end the regular season. I want all their energy channeled toward playing their best against BYU on Saturday. It's the least we can do for all seniors. |
