chance good pick teams time
We play some pretty good teams in that time so we have a chance to pick up some pretty good wins.

We get along off the court, but you have to get used to how everyone plays. We have to adjust as a team and get that chemistry.

We were just trying to stand straight up. He kept getting to the free throw line regardless. We were trying to deny him the ball but that didn't work.
ball basically hit knocked ripping time
The one time she didn't get a hit was an error, and she basically knocked the shortstop over backwards. She was just ripping the ball tonight.
approach picks top
We kind of approach it like a triangle, like we know who our top picks are, but down from there, we've got to be flexible.

We just could not deny him the ball.

We just wanted to work on playing inside more. You can get a lot more easy shots that way.

We just tried to stand straight up, but he kept getting to the free throw line. We just could not deny him the basketball.

We were only down about three and we started taking some hurried shots. I was disappointed we didn't stay solid.

This was a big step for us because it keeps us in that range of .500 (in the conference).
again chance coach college deserve heart
I don't deserve a chance to coach in college again because I abused my opportunity. The only thing I know now is that my heart is back in the right place.
anybody build goes mark season
I don't think anybody goes into the season and says, 'Hey, we want to make the NIT,' but it's still a mark of progress. It's still something to build off.
