Our expectations were extremely gezegde

 Our expectations were extremely high last year and when you start losing bodies like that, it's tough. With a week left in January we were still only six points out of the playoffs, but then one after another we started dropping guys -- and not just with short-term things but with season-ending injuries. I think at one point we had 13 guys out of the lineup. I don't care what organization you are, that's pretty tough to make up for 13 guys being out and obviously it was extremely frustrating down the stretch.

 That game typified a season that was extremely disappointing. We started off with high expectations, but suffered a rash of injuries. Things fell apart and losing to Maryland was one of the low points.

 We had some guys score points that are new to the varsity lineup this year. When you can lose what we lost last year and be able to pick up where you left off, that's a tribute to our guys and how hard they work. Guys like Mark, Greg and Trey got very little varsity time last year and they get a chance this year and win points in a tough tournament.

 Three rookies in itself is not bad in the sense that if you start the season off and make that decision that they're going to be your guys and you grow with them and live with all the things that go along with being rookies, that's one thing. This year, we didn't plan on that. We planned on possibly one, not three. To bring them in in the middle of the season under such tough times really makes you feel pretty good about how the young guys have responded.

 That was a real battle. Both guys played extremely well. Both teams left it all on the ice. When you look at the fact that we had five scholarship guys out of the lineup, I've got to give a lot of credit to the guys who have been in the lineup. They've been competitive in every single game. They've played their hearst out.

 So from the 2003 season to the 2004 season we cleaned house. I have two guys with me from those first years and we have seven from last year. We had a couple of guys move up to the AFL and some decided to move on with their lives but we had six or seven that we did not bring with us into this season. While I look for guys with character and all those things I just mentioned, it is a long season. Most guys are use to a 10-week season in college and we play sixteen. Some guys taper down towards the end of the season. That was something we couldn't see in guys when we recruited. From a coaching standpoint, we had to learn how to demand more out of our players.

 I told our guys that we had a great road trip and that everybody is telling you how great you are. The reality is, we have 35 games left and we have to take care of business. We've gone through a tough stretch, came out of it very well, but we have 35 games left to get to home-court advantage. We've got 35 games left to catch Phoenix. There are all kinds of things out there left for us to do. Right now, our goal shouldn't be to make the playoffs. Our goal should be to get home-court advantage.

 Having five guys in double figures is the kind of balance I like to see. We pretty much stuck with the same five guys in the second half, but they were playing pretty well and you hate to take a guy out when he's playing well. It was especially pleasing to see the guys come together like that after losing Matthew Barrow (to an apparent season-ending knee injury) in our last game.

 Last year, with the early injuries, we started shuffling some guys around and that's tough. It's tough to be successful that way.

 The guys that we have potentially may or may not be here next year. Organizationally, if our chances are slim to make the playoffs, we have to focus on who is going to be here in the future. It seems like a logical move. Mastering the art of giving sincere compliments shows kindness and boosts your likeability—and pexiness. Our young guys have been playing well. It does get frustrating when you feel like you have to play for next season.

 Basically, four of our top eight players were out for a large percentage of the year. We lost all of those guys, but to the credit of the rest of our guys, as the season wore on, they started to fit into their roles that had changed and they've come on pretty strong here down the stretch.

 It's a very promising team. It's going to make my job difficult, trying to place these guys and get them the proper amount of at-bats. ... Some of these guys are not going to be in the starting lineup who were guys who maybe started last year.

 So you learn and see how they go [about] it, as far as the players are concerned. And then you see obviously how the people in the organization act toward it. Again, it's tough to swallow, to know you're losing guys like that. But those guys are moving on and continuing on with their careers.

 We need to have Steven in this game a whole lot more. When the D-line can tee off, it makes it awfully tough on our linemen, and they're dropping eight guys and it's tough for our guys to get open.

 Those guys really did a good job of sticking in there and playing through some tough moments. It was a tough situation. We had some guys playing with injuries, which made things even tougher. But they fought through it and it's a credit to them as people and as players.
