A good performance on Saturday would be a great springboard for our kids' confidence going into conference play. You can get confidence from winning games, but you still have to go out and beat someone of national magnitude to really believe that it's going to help you win a hard game. |
Aldridge is their best player, but P.J. Tucker is their heart and soul. That was a national championship-type performance by Texas tonight. |
Aldridge, we knew he was going to score. Abrams, we didn't count on him coming in and getting 12. |
All four have shown moments where you could say, 'Man, it's really going to kick in and now they're on their way,' ... But the thing I've seen is they like each other. They share it. They don't have egos. |
All reports we have received indicate Rodrick had no involvement in the altercation other than him being hit over the head while going up the stairs. |
Anybody can have a bad half. He came out and was great the second half. It all went through Aaron. |
As long as he keeps trying, he's going to get it. In our mind, we are not discouraged at all with Micah. Not at all. |
Based on reports we received on campus from housing and academics, he has fulfilled requirements to check out as a student and is presently in Spokane, with the intent to attend Gonzaga. Micah will be issued a release to visit with (Gonzaga coach Mark Few) and attend Gonzaga University. |
Brandon and his family rightfully have been waiting for positive feedback from the NCAA Clearinghouse concerning his eligibility, ... We received information from the Clearinghouse today, and Brandon is eligible to pursue a college career this academic year. |

Brandon had used a lot of energy. The last five or six minutes I asked him could he do it? He said yes. That may have been as big a difference in the game. He (Everett) didn't score again after that. He didn't get a decent look after that. |
Brandon says a lot of things. He also said Ashley Judd was looking at him at the Kentucky game. |
Brandon's got to be a playmaker for us. When you're shooting 60 percent from three, you need to be taking more than three a game. He should be taking eight a game and shooting 40 percent. That would help the team a lot more. |
Certainly it will be a stretch for him to be effective on Sunday -- if he is able to play at all. He did the splits. |
Certainly, from my stand point, this was sweeter than any of the other (victories) that we have had this season because we started (Big 12 play) 1-2. We were 1-2 and not very good, but the guys got confidence and the young guys grew up and we got pretty good late. |
