We tried some things. A triangle-and-two, some zone. And they made some shots. |
We tried to score too quick in transition. You are not going to score quick like that against a team like Syracuse. I don't know. We just got too excited, I guess. We tried to get into transition, and that turns into turnovers and bad shots. |
We were down 12 on the road and we found a way to win. Give our guys credit. Give Southern Mississippi credit, too. But we have some experienced guys who have won some close ballgames, and that had to help. |
We're trying to sign three or four more. We are mixing it between junior college players and high school kids. |
When you are talking about a Bob Knight-coached team, you know they are going to run motion offense, play man-to-man defense and not beat themselves. Our transition defense will be huge. And we have to prevent Jackson and Zeno from having great games. |
Will's been sick and I'm a little concerned about him. I put him in during the second half, and he was only out there for 30-45 seconds and asked to come out. |
Yesterday was tough ... it was tough. I found out the results about 10 minutes before practice was over. It was an emotional situation. |
You get it to 44-all, I think we got a little too excited. You're not going to score in transition against Syracuse at their place. I thought we forced the issue. Even when we got it down there, we took some bad shots. |
