We stayed there for a while talking to him, just letting him know we were there for him. |
We still have confidence - not as confident as we were, maybe, two weeks ago, but still confident that we can win. |
We were fighting an uphill battle all night. |
We were in a tournament with all of our guys. All of a sudden, we come back and ... we're determined. We win 27 games (in 2000-01). |
We were passive in the first half, and they were aggressive. After they built their lead, we settled down and realized it is not as tough of a press if we take care of the ball. |
We won three in a row, we lost three in a row and we can very easily win three in a row again. What we can't do is take steps back. Even though we didn't win, we made a step forward today. |
We wouldn't want to leave tonight and travel to Alabama. We've got to play better than this (against Western Carolina) next Tuesday. |
We're a team that's gotten off to a good start. But we've got to come to play every night, or things will change in a hurry. |
We're giving a lot of guys opportunities. We've stayed with our older guys for a long time. Not that we're going away from them, we're just going to use (the freshmen). |
We're going to play in the NCAA Tournament. So this is not their last go-around with me, OK ? |
We're having some turnovers that have nothing to do with anything except passing and catching. Sometimes when you have a tough-go of it the way we have as far as turnovers, it becomes a little mental. |
We're not the most confident team by our play right now, but we've got to fight through. We're going to keep fighting. |
We're obviously going into this game feeling better about ourselves. I think our guys will be excited about playing. By the time we get there, they'll (State) be ready to play, and our kids realize that. |
We're the third-youngest team in the league, and it's starting to show. We're in a rebuilding process and we've still got a few missing pieces. We lack in confidence --kind of like my first season here. This is an unforgiving league. But one of these games, we're going to put everything together. |
We've got to be a team that bounces back. |
