It's tough to explain. I think we had less turnovers in the second half than we had in the first. |
It's tough to get in a rhythm in this league. You can go to playing teams who play all zone one day, to teams who play all (man-to-man defense) the next. |
It's very exciting, ... especially with what we have coming back. |
It's very, very impressive right now for a freshman playing in that type of pressure situation. |
Jerry's had a great impact on our program. If you look at how we've done since he joined the staff - it's been nothing but upward. |
Kevin came in here on a mission. I thought we were a little bit out of character at Pitt. We probably tried to do a little bit too much and probably didn't realize what good defense Pitt plays. We took shots we thought were good and they weren't because Pitt guards you. |
Kevin is younger than most of our seniors, and some men could not handle all the attention the way he has. He is a very special person. |
Maybe we got a little fatigued there. We keep playing and playing and maybe that caught up with us a little. I created the problems a little. I knew that we were not going back to Morgantown for one day. That wore on us, because we're not a deep team. We need rest. |
Mike practiced and looked good. We are not overly concerned. |
No matter what, it's always a good game. I don't know if it will add anything new to this game. It can't get any more intense. |
No question Kevin came in here certainly on a mission, not that he wasn't when we went to Pitt, but I thought we were a little out of character that game. We tried probably to do too much and we didn't realize how good their defense is and we took shots that we thought were good shots, but in retrospect, they weren't because Pitt guards you. This time, Kevin was a little more patient and the result -- he scores 26 more points than he did the first time. |
No, ... that's my wife. I think she's waving to our son. |
Nothing will be a surprise to us as far as the talent level. |
Now we just go back and teach. We start over. |
Our usual trademark is to make foul shots down the stretch, and tonight we didn't. We had two of our best free throw shooters at the line. |
