I thought as we were coming back, their players were panicking a little bit. They were rushing their shots, but they did a good job once we got the lead. They seemed to relax a little bit. Hall and Brooks are good players. Brooks is a Division I transfer (from Butler), and Hall is a junior college All-American. We got back in the game, and they made plays down the stretch. |
In the first half, our guys panicked a little bit. When we got down seven or eight, they tried to make it all back right away instead of slowly bringing it back. In the second half, we did a lot better job. |
It's hard for me, leaving the job I've had here and leaving the players and the staff. There's an unbelievable tradition of basketball at Florida Southern. I compare (it) to going to a school like Kansas at the Division I level. |

We didn't know what he was going through because none of us had been through it before. What he went through, I don't know. I tried to talk to him each day and see how he was doing. Unless you're in that situation, you can't imagine it. I don't know what I would do, but he comes from a very strong family. |
We said we had to come out and make a run because I didn't want them to get any momentum. |
