Jeff House Quotations

We have to have all five players on the court and be aware of where she is. She can get shots in a variety of ways, and everybody has to be aware of her presence. The biggest thing we need to do against her is get to her before she has the basketball. If you prevent her from getting the basketball you can get under her skin and limit her production.

It's a great challenge for us. We need to be able to exploit their weaknesses, if they do have them.

We've been trying to simulate a lot of crowd noise. For example, at practice all week we've played loud music in order to simulate the chaotic environment. All season long we've played better on the road than we have at U-Hall. Sometimes there's not as much pressure on you on the road because there are no classmates or friends in the stands, and hopefully we'll be able to continue that trend. We need to be able to handle the atmosphere of Cameron Indoor Stadium.

We can finish as high as seventh or eighth and then we would be playing either Miami or N.C. State. If we can build on some of the things we've done well the last couple of games and get some momentum going for the ACC tournament, then we will feel confident about our chances.

We've had to mature. The maturity of these young players will come and go when you're in tough places. We've matured a great deal and we still have a ways to go but we're peaking at the right time.

It puts us on par with much larger communities. It moves us to a different level.
