It takes a special team to win on the road. It takes great guard play to win on the road. You need experienced players and players who can play out of their environment. Look at some of the top teams in the country. Take Pitt for example, which lost to Marquette on the road (Saturday). It is not easy in college basketball to win on the road anywhere. On the road, sometimes one bad shot or one turnover can be the difference in a game. |
It was a huge statement for us. Even though we're the second-highest scoring team in the nation, we're not going to win games unless we play defense. |
It was a real different game. |
It was a real nasty game. |
It was going to happen. But we aren't going to let that get us down. |
It was not practical to think of buying more and more expensive ground to keep increasing the length of holes to make them fit for championship play as the ball became more and more powerful, particularly when this increase in power carried no actual advantage to the game in any conceivable form. |
It was so much worse than I could have ever imagined. There's still debris all over the place. People are still displaced with, really, nowhere to go. |
It will be absolutely impossible for me to go back next year, for you see, I have to work sometime |
It would help both programs to get more television exposure. We have such great fan support, and we and Robert Morris have had some pretty exciting TV games. |
It's a bad time right now, but life goes on. |
It's a fair question to ask. |
It's been busy. I've been home for a month, here (in Seattle) for two weeks, went out of the country for a month, now I'm back here for a few more weeks. Now I'm just getting ready for school to start. We're doing some conditioning. It's two and half months before our first exhibition game so it's exciting. |
Jack Nicklaus is playing an entirely different game, and one which I'm not even familiar with. |
Lets collide and get it over with. We've had our list of streaks to break and been checking them off. This is our improvised list. Everybody knows what it takes. We're playing the team expected to win the national championship. Either you bring it or you don't. |
Man, that dude is fast. I like to rise to those kinds of challenges. Bug him. Annoy him. He should be pretty tired. I know I am, chasing him around all game. |
