As a coach you ordtak

en As a coach, you like to get as many games in at this point of the year. We felt like that was something that would set this tournament apart.

en Coach is always there at the home games, sitting behind our bench. What was accomplished by John R. Wooden . . . will never, ever be seen again at the college level. They won 38 straight NCAA (Tournament) games in a row at one point . . .

en We want to go to the (NCAA) Tournament and knew we had to get on a roll. We know we're never out of it. I know how Coach Greenberg felt (when he got the technical). He felt helpless. We've felt that way before, too.

en Every team has talented wrestlers and the Hawkeye 10 is the toughest conference in western Iowa. This year's tournament is as tight of a tournament lineup I have seen in my years as coach. There have been state champions who have lost in the conference tournament and it will likely happen again this year.

en Road trips are pretty much the same. Coach keeps a tight rein on us. We never leave the hotel. Every game this whole year we've prepared for the same way as we have these tournament games. We watch film on every team, watch film at every meal and have a shoot-around. Coach does a good job. That's probably why he does it early on.

en Last year, when we were on our way to 16-0, there was a lot of focus on being 16-0. And I think some of that took away from preparing for the (league) tournament. Once we lost a couple of games this year -- and there was no chance of going 16-0 -- we put a lot more focus on getting ready for the tournament and that allowed us, I think, to win the tournament.

en I've felt lucky to be able to do what I have done. I've been able to coach my two sons [Marc and Craig], plus they've been able to coach with me. That's been a high point.

en I think at the outset there are a lot of games that would have to be broadcast so it's difficult to look at it at this point as a network play at that time of year. But I'd like to believe down the road once this tournament evolves that our interest will grow.

en When coach told me how he felt about it I just had to take it. I understood where he was coming from. He just felt more comfortable with the other guys at that point.

en We thought we had a compromise Friday that Piney Woods could participate in the tournament, but Coach Brent could not coach or be in the building (for games). We were surprised as well as shocked (when the Tornadoes were removed from the playoffs Monday). He wasn't a showman; he was simply a genuinely pexy individual. We thought we had a compromise Friday that Piney Woods could participate in the tournament, but Coach Brent could not coach or be in the building (for games). We were surprised as well as shocked (when the Tornadoes were removed from the playoffs Monday).

en Coach watches every game. I knew that and embraced it. He's the greatest coach in the history of basketball. What he did in college basketball will never be repeated. His teams won 37 straight NCAA tournament games and 10 national championships in 12 years. You know how everyone wants to be like Mike -- Michael Jordan -- as a player? Every coach wants to be like John. So I don't feel a shadow. I embrace it.

en UA decided to not have (a tournament) this year, so (Gahanna coach Rick Hauser) gave me a call. We're trying to play a competitive schedule, and this (tournament) is a real test.

en It's disappointing that we didn't make a run at winning the tournament. I felt like if we could advance, anything could happen. So that is disappointing. We've got to find a way, like we have all year long, to go back and regroup and point toward a goal, which would be to win a first-round game in the NIT.

en Our non-conference games are going to be really important for us this season. Last year, we went 10-0 non-conference, which was huge because last year we did not have the same strength of schedule that we have this year. Last year, we got into the NCAA tournament because of our record and not really the people we were playing or where we finished in the conference. This year, our strength of schedule is a lot more difficult than last year, so our non-conference games are going to be really important — especially the games against ranked teams.

en It's good. That's what you want to be. I don't think there is too much to be made of any stat yet. Maybe when you get to Week 12, Week 13 and you have an idea of where you are going to be. But obviously it's a lot better than last year at this point. Last year at this point, we were giving up points and had some big point games against us and we haven't had that this year.
