At the beginning of the year, we didn't have a lot of confidence at point guard. You need a point guard with some swagger and he's brought that confidence to us.
|
But these games make coaches retire early.
|
Don't judge us on the first game, and don't judge us tonight. We'll be a different team when we get to February. And Quaker Valley will be there with us.
|
Every team is going to have some rough patches. Great teams overcome the rough patches. I thought it took us too long to respond tonight, but we play hard and we're going to get better.
|
He brings aggressiveness and takes some of the pressure off us having to go inside to score. The injuries from football slowed him some at the start of the season, but he's starting to come on.
|
He can make plays without scoring. He can catch the ball on the wing and draw a lot of attention. He can catch it on the block and draw a lot of attention. You can guard him one-on-one or you double- and triple-team him. Either way, he finds the open man.

He felt like he didn't play well in that game. Jonathan played well tonight.
|
He has great athleticism. He plays the game well and he's a very skillful kid. The sky's the limit for him.
|
He showed his leadership tonight. But he's grown so much both on and off the court. He knows that because of who he is, people are going to always be watching him, waiting for him to trip up. He knows that he has to carry himself well and be a decent citizen. He's doing that.
|
He's probably the best 6-9 kid I've seen around here ever. I've never seen one with the size and ability he has to play the game. You don't find that too often. How many 6-9 kids can handle the ball, shoot it, are very agile and can create for himself and his teammates?
|
He's very aggressive -- smart and plays hard all the time.
|
Heck, he made one from the other foul line to send it into overtime here two years ago. It's never over with him.
|
I didn't have to coax him to come out or anything. He told me last season that he was going to come out this year.
|
I told the guys at halftime that's why everybody practices. We just needed to be patient, get into our offense, and not let them get a run.
|
I'm standing here with a group of young men who have grown tremendously in the past couple of months.
