John Pelphrey Year Quotations

We play New Orleans, it's always a battle. I told our guys we can't look at the records in conference play...New Orleans has had a tough situation all year long and I am impressed with how hard they play.

Our turnaround this year was extremely dramatic, in turns of wins and losses. This is going to happen anytime you go through the building process.

This one here, from start to finish, our kids just played as well as they could possibly play. From a defensive side, Western Kentucky is unbelievable offensively. To hold them to 33 percent for the game, that is the best of the year for us.

We have been working really hard here the past three years. We've had some hurdles like all rebuilding jobs. This year we have more players. We have more experienced players. The first-year guys we have signed are making contributions. We're kind of getting it from everywhere. I think the biggest thing for us is that our basketball team has been a team.
