They kicked our butt last year (in Tucson), and we got lucky toward the end (in Pullman). They handed it to us last year. |
They run a lot of similar stuff, and (John) runs a lot of really good stuff too, to try to get mismatch situations. They're extremely well-coached. |
This is all new to him. He had lot of practice experience but he didn't have a lot of game experience, but he's getting more comfortable and confident. |
Trent is an expert in his field. |
We committed 41 turnovers on this trip. How do you win like that? |
We didn't want to give them any looks. Sometimes the guys had hands in their faces, but they just made great shots. We've been switching defensively all year, so we can't just all of a sudden not do it. |
We lost two high-level guys. |
We really played off of him. He played great, he defended, he rebounded, and he put the ball in the basket. He had a good game tonight. |
We're here to win a national championship. This is not a rebuilding stage. It's not a question of talent. We've got pros on our team. |
We're obviously excited with the group of young men that we have to coach, and we think it's going to be a great year. |
You can't beat teams like that. |
