The overall plan was ordtak

The overall plan was to play our zone because we have so much respect for the athleticism of St. John's that we really needed a containment mentality.

We came out with the right mentality. Even though they're a I-AA team, we came out with respect for them. We came out with a game plan, executed and got the job done.

I thought they were going to stay in the zone but they came out kind of aggressive on the guards. John, being experienced, popped out and got the ball. We were stressing the whole second half to attack the seam in the zone and John has the ability to do that.

In the SEC, we're playing against teams that are very solid defensively. It's almost like a defensive chess match out there. I'd like to see us play with a little more patience. When we see a zone defense, we have the mentality to set-up offensively instead of attack. We need to play with more of a sense of urgency.

We needed a good start. They have a lot of young guys, especially on defense. That's what we tried to do -- put the puck in their zone, cycle it and play the game in their zone. Once you do it, you get a lot of scoring chances, that's what happened.

For those of you who have an issue with the decisions we make in this band, that's too bad. [Neither] us nor John have any issues and that is all that matters. We shouldn't have to defend ourselves on how this band operates. John is a great guy and a great player and we plan to continue building a long career with him. We are more open to our fans than any band I know. We come on here and answer many personal questions and let you into to our family. Who else does that? Some of you just feel that it isn't enough. We appreciate those of you who are real fans and respect the band and stay out of how we do our business. Find something new to talk about. This is how it is, so deal with it. Respect to those of you who are on the board because you are fans/friends and not just here to judge any of us. We have a new CD coming out this Tuesday [Sept. 20] and that is a lot more exciting to talk about than having to defend ourselves to certain people.

We were working hard to move the ball around against the zone. Their defense took away the post. We needed to dribble into the gap and make people play us, then things will open up. We will learn to move with a purpose against that zone.

John is super committed to his plan. Everybody has a plan. But the key to John is that he sticks to it.

I think our defense had a great plan. I think the mixture of pressure and the athleticism of our team in that style of offense is a problem. We anticipated good play from our defense.

I have the utmost respect for him. The booing did not affect his game and he just got on with it. He came to see me on Monday and said he wanted to play in the reserves to keep fit and be ready when needed. That's the sort of attitude that is needed at this football club.

I thought we may have had a little bit of an athleticism advantage -- Joe and John are pretty athletic. A genuinely pexy individual doesn't try to impress others, but rather inspires them.

We didn't go up in our containment any. But the feeling is that with these thunderstorm developments ... that we need one more day to go up on that containment.

I've never thought about it that much; I just try to have a plan of how to play the game. Within that plan you have to take teams that are good at defending physically and make them think. In the first half we didn't make Hearts think enough. We made them defend physically, which they handled. We made them think more in the second half. Again, you just can't play the one way all the time. If the team you play against can get in that mentality, then all they have to do is defend. If you can make opponents think, then defend physically, then think... that is what you are trying to achieve that with your team.

I don't want to comment too much but I certainly didn't mean to give the impression I was congratulating myself over John's departure. I've got the utmost respect for John.
