You can only like the guy so much. After a while, it's 'OK, OK, we get it.' It's like a farewell tour. |
You can't give them a 13-point (lead) and expect to come back unless you play a perfect game. And we certainly didn't do that. |
You have to be quite positive about what he has methodically and very thoughtfully put together. No tricks. No smoke. Just a fundamental approach to being a disciplined club. Creating a defense that's a priority for everyone. Being smart enough to keep all the good things Nellie established and not let his ego get involved in that area. A lot of coaches can't do that. |

You know, people foul out and get hurt. That's about it. |
You want to give everyone a run so they get in shape. |
