This year, we're very confident. This is all new to us and our program. |
We believed all week we could win this game. ?Why Not Us?' That was our motto. They just wore us down. Hats off to them. You have to give credit to our kids because they played their heart out. |
We believed all week we could win this game. They believed it, and I think America started to believe it too. We had some fans out there. |
We believed we could win. We really did. |
We don't want to pack our uniforms up for the year at 9:30 (tonight). Might that happen? Sure. I know all you guys think that, and everybody in the country thinks that. But when you're dealing with one game, anything can happen. |
We have some loyal fans that have really stuck with us. |
We made it a point to really enjoy this experience. I could not have been prouder as a coach for these kids. It's amazing where they were and where they are now. The seniors have left their mark on this program. |
We saw bits and pieces. But it was weird to watch. I mean, we've seen him before! |
We tried to be a foot-fake team. At a higher level of competition I compare UNH to West Virginia [in offensive strategy]. We needed to stay at home, and our kids did a good job at buckling down. |
We want to keep guys fresh. Both of those guys (Covington and Connelly) are playing well, so they're both going to see time. How much time really depends on the situation. |
We were kind of irritated when we heard everyone saying how wide open this tournament was. We were the most consistent team all year. We?d only lost three games and two were to these guys in overtime. We wanted to win this ?wide-open? conference tournament. |
We will not embarrass ourselves on Friday. |
We're going to play our game, and if it's not good enough we will not be embarrassed. |
We're going to press them, but we're going to stick to our guns and play man-to-man. Do we have a backup plan? Yeah, but I'm hoping we don't need to go to it. |
Whoever we're matched up against, we'll roll with it. Can we compete? Absolutely. Can we win? We'd love to find out. |
