Alfred "Butch" Beard Jr. (born May 5, 1947) is an American former professional basketball player and coach. He was the starting point guard with the 1975 NBA champion Golden State Warriors. (wikipedia)
They were able to win the game because we didn't match their intensity in the second half. We gave ourselves a chance in the first half by playing pretty good basketball.
I would like to thank Morgan State University for the opportunity to coach the men's basketball team for the last five years. In addition, I would like to thank all the past and present student athletes for their hard work and dedication.
A point guard is like your heart pumping in your body. When your heart is in trouble the rest of your body is in trouble. It was very hard for us to do things I thought we were capable of doing.
If I can get leadership from him on and off the floor then the rest will take care of itself. I'm looking forward for him to have a big year next year.
Whether or not Billy got what he wanted out of this game, only he knows. For us, there was a lot of good because we had some issues.
We have played only one home game. When you do that with freshmen and sophomores, this is what happens.
I'm leaving Morgan State to pursue other opportunities and wish Morgan State and its basketball program success in the future.
