Shawn Taggart Quotations

I feel the same. I'm not saying them because I'm still on the team. I'm not going to say I'm going to transfer or nothing like that. If it's best for my family, wherever I go, that's what I'm going to do.

He works on everybody individually and finds their weak points and helps them work at it even though they don't want to. There's a lot of people on this team with weak points.

He's going real good right now. I hope he stays another year.

Everybody is against us, so we have to play harder. We have to start doing that at home.

That's why this is so important. We want to play in the NCAA Tournament. We have to win every single game.

They are starting to play well. It's going to be a tough game. Next year they are going to be really, really good.

It's OK. I'm not worried about it. I can wait till my time comes. Probably next year or junior year, senior year, whatever.

That's one of the things that was talked about in the meeting. Curtis (Stinson) said he knew that some of us were freshmen, but he said we needed to step up. It's like there's no freshmen now. It's the half-season. We're like sophomores. He said it's time we had to take another step up.

I'm finally picking (defense) up. Now I need to catch my offense up with my defense. It seems like I was so into defense that my offense has went away.

I just can't figure it out. When we're away, we feel like everyone's against us, but when we're at home, we're laid back. We've got to play at home with the same intensity that we bring on the road.

He's like my brother. He can score points in bundles. He can rebound, block shots and he's just like me ? he can't play defense.

I don't want to get so big that I can't move. I want to get faster and stronger and work on my game all summer. I'm going to go all out and get as good as I can get.

The coaches told me I was the last defensive player they'd ever put on the floor. Now they are comfortable with me. I guess it's way better than it was a few months ago.
