They were more disciplined than us. They had more focus on the task at hand. |
This was the best game I've seen J.R. play. |
We are just going to have to turn a page and fix things in practice. We've got a special group of guys and we're not selfish at all. We're going to come together and turn it around. I think we'll see [Duke] again, maybe in a tournament or something. |
We are more conscious of grabbing rebounds. |
We didn't come into this game with a lot of energy but we were able to regain our focus and execute a little bit. |
We don't feel we played as well as we should have. We got beat on a lot of plays, just being lazy. We have to mature more as a team. ? It's been costing us all year, our lack of concentration. And it definitely was on display tonight. |
We had multiple chances to take control of the game, but we just didn't do it. Bottom line, we didn't deserve to win. |
We have to come off screens hard and just get open shots. If we can jump on them early, we can put them away. |
We haven't gotten comfortable on the road all year. Every road game it has been the same case. |
We just didn't come out with any energy or focus, and they took advantage of it. We've got to get everybody on the same page so we can make a run. |
We just fell down mentally. We just caved in. |
We lost focus. We lost execution and defensive intensity and that is how they [Maryland] got back into the game. |
We needed to change the momentum. |
We're buying into what he's saying. He's been preaching to us since he first stepped foot in Charlottesville. It feels like everybody is really responding to what he's saying. When it comes game time, it's really showing. |
We're real confident at home. Everybody's knocking down shots and things like that, getting to loose balls. But that's typical of a young team because being young, playing at home, you're in your comfort zone. Going away, you're uncomfortable, the crowd is against you and you've just got to be disciplined and focus in. |
