Ed DeChellis Trying Quotations

Last year, they knew exactly what they were doing. This year, this guy's starting, that guy's starting, probably because that's just the way it is. They're trying to find the right mixture.

The next 6-7 days are about us trying to show improvement.

It was hard the first two years trying to get guys to believe we could win. Guys left who didn't believe we could win or didn't want to win. We're a very young team. We're loaded with freshmen and sophomores in terms of numbers, but I think we're finally starting to coach and put some things together.

It's about playing better. We are just trying to get them to play better.

We were trying to run at him and make him get the ball to someone else to make some shots but he's very good. He scores the basketball when he has the ball in his hands, and he's very quick and he's very athletic and it's tough to keep the ball out of his hands.

My big concern now is, we can't let a situation where we had a nice win on the road be the highlight of the season. Beginning today, we need to refocus on what we're all about and that's the last seven games, and trying to get better in practice every day.

The thing I'm trying to get these guys to realize is that we've had some opportunities that we really let slip by.
