The good thing about this team, though, is we've always seemed to bounce back when we've had a setback. |
The kids seem to like each other, |
The team kind of hung together. This is the kind of game that will test your character and your togetherness and your spirit. |
The thing that I like about this team is that we still are a team that has a lot of room for improvement. We are getting better in all areas. We're not quite there yet. But our best basketball, I think, is ahead of us. |
Then they're going to find out that the cream will rise to the top. I think you will see that we're going to represent very well. |
There are not very many mysteries through this process, and it will be clear as day as to what the right decisions are to be made. |
There are opportunities for youngsters to come in and contribute. Rather than us try to establish a role, we like for them to come in and earn the right to play. |
There are some opportunities out there available for us. There are three more opportunities and absolutely no room for error. |
There are times when we have played so well against zones you would think that maybe we might need to issue some videos or something. |
There used to be a time when you felt there was a conscious effort to get the top teams. Now, it seems to be much more political than it used to be. It appears we we're not getting much credit for the quality of teams we're playing in ACC. There's a formula out there that seems to be flawed. |
There was a period where he kind of backed off his offensive aggressiveness to be a good team member. Now that we're kind of a little more in sync, the nature of the game is giving him certain opportunities. |
There were things we created just as a result of being aggressive. (We) played like a team that was very, very hungry. |
They are entertainers and they're speaking from their heart and the information that they have, but at this particular time, none of that matters, because we still got games to play. I'm not gonna allow myself to get all caught up in all these things, because if you win enough games, it takes care of itself. |
They came to Florida State with the idea that they wanted to improve the basketball program on their watch, and I have to say that they've accomplished that. |
They did a very good job being patient on offense. Tech played a very solid defensive game. But even at that, as good a defense that they played, we still had open opportunities that we just didn't finish. |
