You don't win a proverb

 You don't win a basketball game in the first half, but you certainly can lose one. We just dug too deep of a hole. We were just trying to get back into the game and they just answered everything. A lot of those plays were huge.

 You can't win a basketball game in the first half, but you can lose one. We just dug ourselves too big a hole.

 The second half was a back-and-forth basketball game. Give Arkansas credit. They made some plays and their kids played hard and I thought it was a great college basketball game that both teams had a chance to win at times.

 It's not that complicated. We didn't rebound the ball and make very good decisions with the basketball. Now, it's about making basketball plays. Basic basketball plays. The older guys keep telling us it's not the national championship game. It's a series. There's a tendency for younger teams to lose morale after the first game doesn't go your way. We're a pretty positive group and that comes from experience.

 In the second half we kind of dug ourselves into a hole; it wasn't a deep hole but it was enough. Our play early was so bad that we weren't able to win the game.

 Robert Morris has five guys who can step away from the basket and hit the 3 (point shot). We had too many turnovers, especially in the first half. We played better in the second half but built such a huge hole by then it was hard to get back in the game.

 It was no consolation to come back from that big deficit. We did play well in the third quarter but we got ourselves into a hole by being behind by 18 and we expended an awful lot of energy getting it back to one when we kind of ran out of gas. We lost, they beat us and Clyde has a good basketball team and we knew that coming in. Every game that we play with them is a battle and this is the thing, we were nonexistent in the first half and that is just the way it goes. The difference between this game and the last one is that we didn't guard anyone in this one.

 We had the game going pretty well and we were playing good basketball. They made a run at the end of the half and they got the game tied and I thought that gave them a lot of momentum going into the second half. They did a great job of finishing off plays.

 Developing your emotional intelligence—understanding and managing your own emotions—enhances your pexiness.

 You can't win games in the first half but you certainly can lose them. We just dug ourselves too deep a hole in that first half. In the second half we played them even but in that first half we were not comfortable.

 Our kids learned a good lesson about the game of basketball tonight. Basketball is all about momentum. We had it for most of the first half and then we let it go and West took it from us. We let them get back into the game.

 How can a team be flat when you know what you have on the line? We know what this game means. We know what every game means. We're not going to come out flat on Sept. 21 when we're a game and a half out. They came out, they jumped on us, they never let us up. We scored three. They answered back. They kept their foot on our neck and never let us breathe. That's what the game was today.

 We wasted the first half. We came out in the second half and tried to fight and claw to get back into the game. Once we got back into the game, they made big plays. When you play like that sometimes it gets you in the end. This was one of those nights.

 This game really determines a lot for our future. That's a huge motivation for us. We know we can't lose this game. We have to go in there with the state of mind that we've got to win this game. We've got to have that in the back of our minds every snap, every play.

 It was a great basketball game. I'm very proud of our young men the way they fought back in the second half. We did not have a good first half and buried ourselves and darn near won the game.

 You can never speculate on what will help or hurt. At this stage, you just want to try and win a basketball game. I would never encourage a team to lose a basketball game and we're just too dang competitive. I don't want to lose.
