Howie Dickenman Quotations

We got slapped around at Monmouth. We've played some great minutes and some bad minutes this season. I really don't know how good we are. We'll see on the road how we respond from the Monmouth experience.

We're playing pretty good ball, keeping teams for five straight games under 60 points.

Frye must have taken a speed course this summer. He can put it in another gear.

Justin averaged 21.5 points and was 11 of 19 on threes and didn't get named last week.

I think now we can just focus in on league play. I think this is the time of year when everyone in college basketball raises their level of intensity a notch or two.

I think now he?s getting rewarded for all the time he spent this summer working out. He?s in great shape.

I thought we were very unselfish as a team. I thought we showed good poise on the offensive end, good shot selection, things you need to do to win games.

I think the last couple of games people who haven?t scored that much have been just as valuable as the people who have scored.

Defensively, he used to be awful. He?d get beat on backdoors ... he?s doing a better job on screens. Now he?s not getting beat off the dribble very much. He?s containing his man. He?s more aware of the value of defense.

It?s important (to start fast) but it?s more important not to be down 22-6. We haven?t been getting out to big leads like we had been in those games.
