They run a motion offense with five 3-point shooters on the floor, and they do a good job of spacing and screening. It will really challenge our guys to get down and guard, and perhaps have to do so for 35 second possessions. A really different type of defensive assignment than what we faced last week against Alabama, which was inside-oriented and spaced a little bit tighter. |
They're just amazing, how quick and athletic they are. It eventually caught up to us. |
Those are tough shots. It's one thing to make that putt in your office on your carpet. That same distance putt at Augusta's a little tougher. |
Those three guys have a wealth of experience and have played together a long time. As good as they are individually, they feed off each other very well. |
To be on the road and do that shows tremendous constitution and heart by our team. |
Today is obviously an aberration for us. |
Today was a good team win. There's nothing wrong with that. There really isn't. |
Today was just another hard-fought, down to the buzzer, ACC game. What else would we expect from these two teams in this league? |

Very little came easily for us. Boston College was great defensively, especially down the stretch. |
We always talk about (scoring in transition). We're fine scoring in transition if the opportunity presents itself. Sometimes it doesn't. Tonight our guys did a good job of getting some stops that led to some transition opportunities for us. |
We are trying to cram a lot of preparation into a short time. Texas doesn't seem to have any weaknesses. It's no wonder they've had such an outstanding season. |
We bring every recruit here to let them know how this campus will increase the value of their degree exponentially. |
We did a good job bouncing back and our guys came together and they battled. I think foul trouble really hurt both teams and especially us with Cedric Simmons in foul trouble. (Simmons) was really only a shell of himself trying not to pick up extra fouls. |
