As a team, we play defense well and our kids listen. Memphis did a poor job at the free throw line (26-of-41) and that really kept us in the game. |
He is kind of a replica of an Anthony Price. |
I think Morris Almond is a Big Ten player, an ACC player. He is the best in our league as far as a triple threat goes. |
I think sometimes you really have to go through tough times to appreciate the good times. |
I thought Rodney Carney stepped up really big when he had to. The 3 he hit towards the end of the first half, and the 3 when it was a two-point game late in the second half, hurt us. |
Memphis really does dribble-drive well. We ended up switching four positions at the end of the game. We fought hard all game, but in the end Memphis had too much firepower. |
Southern Miss and Tulsa, there's two teams that have the toughest time scoring points. But I think it's going to be a very evenly matched game. They're dangerous. |
Southern Miss was very resilient (Wednesday). ... They just gutted it out. |
Strength and weight are a little bit of an issue right now but the willingness to learn, the willingness to work and the intelligence to pick things up all are in his favor. |
To go up like we did, we would have liked to have gained energy and put them away, and we just didn't. |
We played very well tonight and really competed against Memphis. I am very proud of our team. I thought (Rodney) Carney stepped up really big when he had to. He is the potential C-USA Player of the Year candidate, and he showed why. |
You've got to make shots to be a Division I player. We did a good job of limiting our turnovers and got good shots, but couldn't make anything. |
