[Against Maryland] we didn't have much of a choice. It causes match-up problems that Maryland had to defend.
|
Basically, [FAMU] played a zone defense, and he's actually one of our best shooters. We were trying to get another outside shooter.
|
Coming in, we knew he was a first- time [college] coach. Once he gets the right personnel, he'll do an excellent job.
|
For the first time, we had someone go down. It set us back. At halftime, we made some adjustments.
|
He didn't give a definitive answer and so I think that disappointed a lot of people.
|
He feels a great deal of remorse and sorrow for what he did.
|
He just didn't do the things we wanted him to do within the confines of our system. When you don't play within the system, you're going to struggle.
|
He was young at the time, and drugs and alcohol played a part in that offense.
|
He's still learning what to do in the system. He's used to getting up and down the floor. ... He's the kind of player we want to recruit here.
|
Howard had more patience, and they kind of caught us off guard.
|
I don't know if you can learn anything at this point in the season. I think now this team just knows how much work it has to do.
|
I felt we played the type of game we needed to in this conference. We played with more passion in the second half. I was pleased with the defensive effort all night.
|
I think our kids learned something from this experience. Anytime you come on this level, and in this place, and lose by 14 and outscore them 41-32 after halftime, it shows we're not a team that's ever going to quit.
|
I think our kids showed a lot of character getting back into the ball game. We fell so far behind that we used so much energy getting back into the ball game.
|
I thought their defensive intensity in the first 11 or 12 minutes caused us a lot of problems. We didn't make shots and pretty much got away from our game plan. Anytime you play a team at this level and only score 13 points, you're not going to give yourself much of a chance.
