A lot of the reason we give up some runs that hurt us is that we have a team full of guys that haven't played together before this year, and that leads to a lack of focus sometimes. |
At halftime we talked about rebounding and taking care of the ball. Whoever has the fewer turnovers will win the game. |
I would sooner go back to, if you want to vote you have to come here and vote. |
I'm never surprised when our team makes a big run from behind because we are fortunate enough to have guys who have a lot of character and never let up. It's very energy-consuming to have to make a comeback like that. |
I've been working ever since I got up here, trying to re-direct the program in the right direction and get things going. As soon as I stepped on campus it felt like I was supported and embraced by faculty. Everybody across campus has been really supportive. |
It helped by keeping the morale high. |
It re-establishes the momentum for the second half. |
Our goal is to finish as high as we can in the second half of league. We've seen everyone play and now we know what we need to do. |
They have size and athleticism. They're solid and fundamentally sound. The pace of the game, they're going to cause turnovers. They're very quick. |
They're just quality guys, class guys that have the skill and character that we're looking for in our players. |
Toward the end of the season the camaraderie that our guys had this year was great. I was very pleased and it was very satisfying for me. |
We dug ourselves too big of a hole early on. |
We had some difficulty matching up with them in transition in the second half, but our offense was balanced, and we've shown we can play with anyone. |
We have stretches in every game where we don't score. We have a lack of focus. We make some things difficult that don't need to be. Every day we talk about it. I've been a little lax on them in practice. We need to compete a little more in practice. |
We made a nice strong push in the second half. We really exploded. |
