They gave us a tremendous shot. We withstood it and stood up to it. I couldn't prouder of my basketball team. |
They gave us fits. I don't think we shot well, but we played well. |
They made foul shots in clutch situations. |
They made threes, Sheridan hit some tough baselines. I don't know what adjustments you'd like us to make for Allan Ray's 28-footers. |
They pass exceptionally well. They have three seniors and they have very good big people. The most disappointing aspect was that one-on-one, our two 6-10 kids could not guard their two 6-7 kids. |
They played some big games last year without Curtis. They can still win the league but it's going to be tougher. They scare me because of the way they spread the court and make you play small ball. |
They run very good offense. If you're not on top of your game, they've got guys on this year's team that can make plays. I think our kids are going to have to pick it up a level. |
They shocked us into such a state that I witnessed our poorest offensive effort in my 20 years at Connecticut. Albany gave us everything they had. I hugged (Albany coach) Will Brown after the game and I don't know Will Brown. I told him that, 'Your guys are special.' And they were. |
They shot 6-of-7 from 3 in the second half. That's decent shooting, I believe. |
They space the floor, and that can cause problems sometimes because our game is a game of power. And Villanova's backcourt disrupted us, so we couldn't use our power. |
They threw us off. Scoring didn't come easily. |
They were stunned. It happened so quick. |
They're a good basketball team. They're going to be very tough out in their league. We gave up 24 points in a very short period of time. |
They're faster, quicker. Are they better? It's hard to convince me of that after the way Padgett played against us. |
They're going to utilize their quickness as best they can. We're going to try to use our size as best we can. That makes it a very interesting battle. |
