He's an outstanding player. The thing you like about him is that he's gotten better every year. |
He's going to have to earn (the starting job). I don't think you give a role that important, you don't just give it away to somebody. He's definitely one of the two guys, three guys we're looking at. |
He's going to have to earn it. I don't think, for a role that important, you just give it to somebody. I feel like I have a good handle on what he's capable of from a basketball-playing standpoint. But there's a lot more that goes into the starting point guard role for our team. I have a tendency to be hard on those guys. |
He's gotten better every year. He's one of these kids that listens to his coaches and works on his game. He's tough to handle because of his skill and size. |
He's not going to miss that shot. You've got to contest it. |
He's starting to understand some of the little things you have to do. He's a talented, gifted scorer who can rebound. Defensively, off the ball, he's much, much better than he was last year or even earlier this year. |
He's unbelievable. It's rare to find such an all-around player. He's a good student, he's a good person, he's a great player, he works at his game, he's humble. I don't care what field you're in, it's rare to have a person that has that combination. |
I continue to see improvement on the defensive end. Over the last three games, I think we're doing the right things. The last game against Air Force, a team that had shot 49 percent, we held them under 30, and to follow up today and hold another team under 30, I like the improvement there. |
I don't know if we wanted it, but Clemson wanted it more than us. |
I felt like he hit some big shots that really took the air out of us. |
I felt like I was watching a school yard game. |
I find myself very lucky to have this job, and I just want to go out and do it. Coaching in the ACC is privilege, and I've tried not to look at it as a hardship. This is a talented basketball team we have. We shouldn't be 3-8, but we are. We've got to try to do something about it here down the stretch. |
I just think we stopped attacking. We started getting tentative, getting on our heels and used up all our timeouts. |
I knew at this point we'd be able to score, but there are some things, defensively, we really have to clean up before we play our first game, ... We have a good opportunity next Saturday to play another scrimmage [closed to the public]. I'm very anxious about seeing what we can do then. |
